Free Web NovelChapter 2801: Chapter 2776: The Sinister and Cunning Trio!
"Martial Arts Competition time has arrived?"
Lin Bai sat atop the high tower, looked up, and saw the setting sun outside of Sky Sword City gradually being mocked.
The afterglow of the sunset spilled over Sky Sword City, and all the warriors who heard Dugu Fei’s voice raised their heads, looked towards the sunset, and walked towards the passageway.
Even the warriors who were just engaged in fierce combat instantly stopped upon hearing these words, turning to walk towards the passage!
And Lin Bai sat atop the high tower, witnessing the fierce battles that had occurred earlier within Sky Sword City.
Among them, Sang Feng, Yu Yu, Lin Chen, Gu Yang, who lost their sword aura, now each possessed a considerable amount of sword aura.
Sang Feng once again possessed thirteen-chi sword aura.
Yu Yu, thirteen-chi.
Lin Chen, fourteen-chi.
Gu Yang, twelve-chi!
But now within Sky Sword City, only Lin Bai possessed fifteen-chi sword aura.
"Time’s up, let’s go, Brother Mu." Lin Bai smiled lightly, stood up from the tower, and said with a grin.
Mu Jing also stood up and said, "Victory is certain, Brother Lin, it seems your fifteen-chi sword aura is destined to become the champion of this Martial Arts Competition."
Lin Bai smiled faintly, noncommittal.
Walking side by side with Mu Jing, he exited Sky Sword City and returned to the square.
When Lin Bai emerged from the passageway, his fifteen-chi sword aura shone brilliantly, causing all the warriors present to exclaim.
"Fifteen-chi sword aura!"
"My goodness, I barely managed twelve-chi sword aura, and he actually has fifteen-chi!"
"Fifteen-chi sword aura must be the champion of this competition!"
The warriors participating in the competition exclaimed upon seeing Lin Bai emerge.
Dugu Fei and Ye Moqing, along with other elders, stood together in the field, smiling as they watched the warriors walk out.
"It seems all the warriors have returned!"
"So now I declare that those warriors who do not possess ten-chi sword aura are disqualified!"
"Thank you all for coming to Sky Sword City!"
Instantly, Dugu Fei spoke up.
Upon hearing this, the warriors with less than ten-chi sword aura all looked surprised, ultimately showing resignation, smiled bitterly, shook their heads, and walked aside in disappointment.
Dugu Fei continued, "As per our agreed rules, whoever possesses the most sword aura will be the champion of this competition!"
"I now see that only one warrior here has reached fifteen-chi sword aura!"
"Lin Bai..."
Dugu Fei called out with a light-hearted chuckle. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Lin Bai nodded slightly, looking at Dugu Fei.
If nothing unexpected happens, with Lin Bai’s fifteen-chi sword aura, he should become the champion of this competition!
But just then, a dissenting voice was heard, "Wait a moment, Elder Dugu Fei!"
Hearing the voice, both Dugu Fei and Lin Bai turned to look at the speaker.
Lin Bai saw that the speaker was Lin Chen.
Dugu Fei asked, "Lin Chen? Do you have something to say?"
Lin Chen shook his head and said, "Nothing to say, I just wanted Elder Dugu Fei to wait a bit, because my sword aura hasn’t completely condensed!"
Both Dugu Fei and Lin Bai frowned as they looked at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen smiled slightly, glanced at Lin Bai, his eyes flashing, and within him, his sword intention stirred powerfully. At the same time, the sword aura above his head visibly began to surge higher.
Fourteen-chi sword aura!
Fifteen-chi sword aura!
Sixteen-chi sword aura!
Seventeen-chi sword aura!
Eighteen-chi sword aura!
When the sword aura above Lin Chen’s head reached eighteen-chi, it stopped, and Lin Chen smiled at Dugu Fei and said, "Elder Dugu Fei, this is my full sword aura!"
Lin Bai’s eyes flashed, and he muttered, "He actually hid his strength? He originally had only fourteen-chi sword aura; the four-chi sword aura that appeared later was his hidden strength!"
Dugu Fei chuckled, "What a cunning lad, he knows how to hide his strength!"
"Now with your eighteen-chi sword aura, you should be the champion of this competition!"
Lin Chen smiled smugly, glanced at Lin Bai, his eyes carrying a hint of frivolity.
At this moment, Gu Yang shouted, "Wait a moment, Elder!"
Dugu Fei looked towards Gu Yang.
And Lin Bai also followed his gaze.
Gu Yang coldly said, "Since Brother Lin Chen has fully revealed his sword aura, I think I can’t wait any longer either!"
As he spoke, Gu Yang’s sword intention surged from within, and the sword aura above his head rose layer after layer.
In the blink of an eye, the sword aura above Gu Yang’s head reached "seventeen-chi," second only to Lin Chen.
"Wait a moment, Elder!"
"Elder, please wait a moment!"
At this moment, both Sang Feng and Yu Yu simultaneously smiled and called out.
Lin Bai looked at Sang Feng and Yu Yu, his expression cold.
He watched as the sword aura above Sang Feng and Yu Yu’s heads began to flicker incessantly, both reaching "eighteen-chi" consecutively.
Seeing this, Lin Bai realized they had all hidden their strength!
Sang Feng coldly smiled at Lin Bai and said, "Lin Bai, you didn’t expect that we still had a trick up our sleeves?"
Yu Yu also smiled and said, "The competition requires brains; on this point, you are quite far from us!"
Lin Chen laughed, "Brother Lin, thanks for your concession!"
Gu Yang merely snorted coldly.
Lin Bai let out a bitter laugh, shook his head slightly.
Now Sang Feng, Yu Yu, Lin Chen, all three possessed eighteen-chi sword aura, while Lin Bai only had fifteen-chi sword aura, clearly falling short in comparison!
"My goodness, the situation changed in a flash!"
"I originally thought Lin Bai would undoubtedly be the champion this time!"
"But who could have expected Sang Feng, Yu Yu, Lin Chen, and Gu Yang, those four bastards, to leave a trick and ambush Lin Bai!"
"Now it’s over, Lin Bai currently ranks after Gu Yang!"
"It seems Lin Bai is out of the running for the champion of this competition!"
The surrounding warriors looked at Lin Bai and the four others, expressing their views.
Dugu Fei chuckled and said, "This is troublesome now, Sang Feng, Yu Yu, Lin Chen, all three of you have eighteen-chi sword aura, therefore are jointly in first place!"
"This is troublesome!"
Dugu Fei said, frowning.
Sang Feng, Yu Yu, Lin Chen all smiled quietly, waiting for Dugu Fei’s decision.
Dugu Fei intended to consult Ye Moqing for a moment, but at this moment, Lin Bai spoke up, "No trouble!"
Dugu Fei was startled and looked at Lin Bai.
Sang Feng, Yu Yu, Lin Chen all looked towards Lin Bai.
Lin Bai smiled slightly, took a step forward, looked at the three of them, and said, "You’ve hidden your strength? Then how could I not hide my strength?"
As he spoke, the sword aura above Lin Bai’s head began to soar rapidly!
Fifteen-chi sword aura!
Sixteen-chi sword aura!
Seventeen-chi sword aura!
Eighteen-chi sword aura!
Nineteen-chi sword aura!
...
Under the gaze of everyone, the sword aura above Lin Bai’s head continued to climb, directly breaking through to nineteen-chi, and this height was continually increasing, seemingly about to break through to twenty-chi sword aura!
