15: Lip sparring, fire python tiger appears!

Hearing that harsh sound, Lin Ken and Lin Xiao, among others, frowned.

Lin Zhentian's smile also slowly receded.

Lin Fan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people approaching in a grand manner.

As they walked, the crowd in the Beast Horn Arena quickly dispersed, showing great fear.

There were two leaders in this group of people. One was similar in age to Lin Zhentian, with deep-set eyes that appeared quite stern. He was Lei Bao, the head of the Lei Family.

The other was a middle-aged man who always had a smile on his face, appearing kind. He was Xie Qian, the head of the Xie Family, a notorious 'smiling tiger' in Qingyang Town.

Behind Lei Bao and Xie Qian, Lin Fan saw two familiar faces: Lei Li and Xie Yingying, whom he had encountered earlier at the trading market.

As Lin Fan looked at Lei Li, Lei Li also looked back at him, a chilling glint flashing in his eyes!

Lin Zhentian looked at the approaching people from the Lei and Xie Families, smiling broadly, "After this Hunting Competition, the one who won't be able to smile will probably be you, Old Man Lei!"

Xie Qian, standing beside Lei Bao, said with a fake smile, "The Lin Family repeatedly fails but never gives up; that's quite rare. Otherwise, our two families wouldn't be able to collect so many stakes each time."

Hearing the sarcasm in Xie Qian's words, the Lin Family members all looked angry, but Lin Zhentian remained calm, saying indifferently,

"Your two families have taken stakes from my Lin Family many times; this time, it's your turn to spit them out!"

A somewhat sinister smile suddenly flashed across Lei Bao's aged face as he looked in Lin Fan's direction,

"I heard that the Lin Family recently saw the rise of a Genius named Lin Fan. Is he your confidence for this Hunting Competition?"

Lin Zhentian stepped forward, blocking Lin Fan, and said with a faint smile, "Old Man Lei, it seems you're worried my grandson will surpass your Lei Li?"

"As for who wins or loses, there will naturally be a conclusion after the hunt. Your Lin Family just needs to prepare this time's stakes."

Lei Bao gave a sinister smile, then, along with Xie Qian, led the people of the Lei and Xie Families past the Lin Family members.

As Lei Li passed Lin Fan, his foot moved slightly, "Lin Fan, there are many fierce beasts in the hunt. To avoid becoming food for a fierce beast, it's best to stay with Wu Yun at all times."

After his words, Lei Li gave Lin Fan a grim smile and casually turned to leave.

Lei Li's words seemed to be considering Lin Fan, but in reality, they were mocking Lin Fan for only being able to rely on Wu Yun from the Mad Blade Martial Hall.

"This bastard is too arrogant!"

Lin Xia and the other younger members of the Lin Family looked at Lei Li's retreating figure, all filled with anger.

Qing Tan's small face also showed some annoyance.

Lin Fan, however, remained calm. He reached out and ruffled Qing Tan's head, smiling, "He's just a dead man in a tomb; there's no need to get angry over this."

"Mhm, mhm," Qing Tan nodded upon hearing this, immediately no longer angry.

【Ding! You touched Lin Qingtan and obtained ten yin pearls!】

At the same time, in Lin Fan's mind, the familiar voice of the System sounded again.

Lin Fan felt a bit helpless. For some time now, the rewards he had obtained from Qing Tan were almost all yin pearls.

During Lin Dong's Cultivation process, he had even given a portion to Lin Dong.

Even so, Lin Fan still had quite a few yin pearls on him, but he would soon no longer need them.

Around the Beast Horn Arena, there were tens of thousands of stone seats. Lin Fan, lost in thought, joined Lin Zhentian and others in entering the very center of the Beast Horn Arena, choosing some stone seats to sit down.

Among the forces in Qingyang Town, the Lin Family ranked fourth, so they naturally had the right to come to this central area with the best view.

After the Lei and Xie Families, as well as the Lin Family, had all taken their seats, after a while, Luo Cheng, Hall Master, the Hall Master of the Mad Blade Martial Hall, also led the Disciples of the Mad Blade Martial Hall directly to sit down not far from the Lin Family.

The Lin Family was at odds with the Lei and Xie Families, but their relationship with the Mad Blade Martial Hall was relatively close.

Perhaps it was because the Mad Blade Martial Hall, like the Lin Family, was an external force and had both been ostracized by the Lei and Xie Families.

After the people from the Mad Blade Martial Hall arrived, Lin Zhentian and Luo Cheng, Hall Master chatted cordially. Among the Disciples of the Mad Blade Martial Hall, Wu Yun approached Lin Fan's side,

"Brother Lin, long time no see. Does the cooperation we discussed last time still stand?" Lin Fan smiled and nodded, "Naturally, it still stands."

Although, with Lin Fan's current strength, even he alone could defeat the younger generation of the Lei and Xie Families, it was still necessary to win over the Mad Blade Martial Hall before he fully grew stronger.

After Lin Fan and Wu Yun chatted for a few sentences, Luo Cheng, Hall Master, who was nearby, suddenly paid attention, "Is he that Genius Disciple of the Lin Family, Lin Fan, who repelled Lei Li?"

Lin Fan clasped his fists and replied, "Lin Fan greets the Hall Master."

Luo Cheng, Hall Master scrutinized Lin Fan for a moment, then nodded, "It seems the Lin Family has produced a true Genius!"

Lin Zhentian stroked his beard with a beaming smile upon hearing Luo Cheng, Hall Master praise Lin Fan.

With the Mad Blade Martial Hall taking its seats, the major forces of Qingyang Town had all arrived.

When the sun rose high, Lei Bao, from the Lei Family's position, stood up. His gaze swept around, quieting the clamor of the Beast Horn Arena, and announced the rules of the hunt to everyone. Then, he had each family distribute identification tokens to the younger generation participating in the hunt.

"Faner, although your strength is not weak, you must not be careless!"

Lin Zhentian took out a black and yellow wooden token and handed it to Lin Fan, saying solemnly.

"Grandpa, don't worry."

Lin Fan reached out to take the wooden token, placed it in his bosom, walked to the edge of the high platform, and leaped down.

"Brother Lin Fan, be careful!"

Qing Tan, on the high platform, called out loudly to Lin Fan's retreating figure.

Lin Fan did not look back, but waved in Qing Tan's direction, then walked directly into the jungle.

Lin Fan discerned the direction and headed directly towards the giant platform on the mountain peak in the center of the jungle.

Anyway, all the participants of this Hunting Competition would eventually go there.

As long as he walked in this direction, he wouldn't be afraid of not encountering other people or not being able to snatch identity tokens.

As more and more participants ventured deeper into the jungle, the once calm jungle gradually became restless.

From time to time, the roar of a beast would sound.

Some unlucky fellows directly became food for fierce beasts.

However, these things did not affect Lin Fan's pace.

Lin Fan continued his journey and soon encountered other participants, and was even intercepted.

After a pleasant exchange, Lin Fan had an additional identity token on him.

Lin Fan went deeper, as if strolling in his own backyard, and he didn't collect few identity tokens.

Suddenly, Lin Fan, who was rushing deeper into the jungle, sensed a pungent smell of blood not far away, and faintly heard the footsteps of fierce beasts and humans.

Lin Fan's heart stirred. He quickly darted up a large tree, hid himself in the canopy, and looked in the direction of the sound.

What first entered Lin Fan's sight was a Yao Beast about ten feet tall, its entire body covered in fiery red fur.

The Yao Beast's head was a very violent and ferocious tiger head, and its tail was coiled on its back, like a Fire Python spitting out its tongue!

Is this... a Fire Python Tiger?

Seeing the appearance of the Yao Beast, Lin Fan quickly recognized its identity.

Lin Fan continued to look around and found more than a dozen figures holding long spears, surrounding the Fire Python Tiger.

At the forefront of these people, Lin Fan surprisingly discovered two acquaintances.
