Lin Ran, who was usually fearless of everything, hated fighting.
He muttered, "Can we not fight?"
"If you win... you can eat all the dog meat you want!"
After transforming, Lin Chi quickly chased after Chu Tian.
As he brushed past Lin Ran, he rumbled, "You can eat all the dog meat you want!"
His cryptic words stunned everyone.
Including Lin Ran and Lin Yu.
However, Lin Yu was the first to react.
He glanced at Lin Ran and said, "Big Brother is serious this time!"
With that, he waved his hands.
Thirteen golden needles floated around him.
"Yellow's Thirteen Needles? Who is Huang Liusheng to you?"
Just as she was about to move.
Ma Deju suddenly exclaimed in surprise!
Lin Ran, Lin Yu, and Lin Chi's bodies jolted.
They looked at him excitedly, and Lin Ran even turned back.
He instantly appeared before Ma Deju.
Grabbing Ma Deju's shoulder with his sharp, large dog claws, he asked,
"You've seen Huang Liusheng? When did you see him? Where did you see him?"
"Uh... Brother Lin... please take your paws off... can we talk properly?"
Ma Deju almost cried. After Lin Chi's transformation, the sharp tips of his claws were
almost like Wolverine's.
At that moment, three claw tips were pressed against Ma Deju's carotid artery.
If it weren't for his thick skin,
they would have already pierced through.
"Uh..."
Lin Ran quickly let go, but his gaze was burning, as if saying: Speak quickly, or I'll scratch you to death if you don't explain.
"You know Grandpa Huang? Who are you to Grandpa Huang?"
Ma Ruolin suddenly asked from the side.
"He's my maternal grandfather! He's been missing for a year!"
"How do you know my maternal grandfather?"
Lin Yu had been getting along well with Ma Ruolin these past few days.
"Ah?" Ma Ruolin's eyes widened in surprise.
"What's wrong? Hurry up and tell me, have you seen my maternal grandfather?"
Lin Yu was on the verge of tears.
"Oh dear... Xiao Yu, don't cry! Listen to me..."
Boom...
Before Ma Ruolin could finish speaking, a distant roar suddenly echoed.
Everyone turned their heads and saw Chu Tian engaged in battle.
Lin Chi looked over there, then back at Ma Ruolin and Ma Deju.
He gritted his teeth and turned to run in Chu Tian's direction.
Lin Yu wiped away his tears.
"Let's help Chu Tian first!"
He also prepared to move.
"Grandpa Huang is fine, he came to our Ma family a year ago."
"He's still there now, treating my father!"
Lin Yu and Lin Ran, who had already taken a few steps,
froze. Lin Ran turned his head and stared at Ma Ruolin.
Ma Ruolin confirmed, "It's true!"
Upon hearing her words, Lin Yu staggered.
But the next second, his face broke into a joyous smile.
Meanwhile, Lin Chi in the distance, with his super-sensitive hearing, naturally overheard.
Suddenly, a heavy stone in his chest seemed to have lifted.
"Awoo... Awoo..."
As he ran, he let out a long howl to the sky.
This caused people on the spectator stands to look over, their discussions erupting.
"Huh... this year's competition really has all sorts of oddities!"
"Yeah, there are even mutated individuals participating!"
"Hmph, unworthy things..."
... The discussions of the crowd went unnoticed by the contestants on the stage.
They were all fighting with all their might.
Less than half an hour after the grand battle began, many had already died on the stage.
Quite a few were heavily injured and knocked off.
Chu Tian, fighting in front, couldn't help but glance back.
What was wrong with Lin Chi?
But what caught his eye was the Lin family's three siblings.
All making their move.
Lin Yu's thirteen golden needles,
like butterflies, fluttered up and down.
Wherever they passed, those engaged in combat stood frozen, motionless.
Seconds later, a drop of bright red seeped out from their brows.
This girl, she's actually killing people...
Lin Ran's side, countless palm-sized paper figures flew out.
Whenever someone charged at him, the paper figures would instantly attack.
The soft paper figures could actually twist opponents into pretzels.
Even... the paper figures could use their sharp edges.
to sever enemies' arteries.
Blood spurted out violently.
And that paper figure, splashed with blood, fell to the ground, struggling to get up!
The sudden surge of power from the three Lin siblings
shocked Ma Deju and the others, their eyes bulging.
This... are these rogue cultivators?
Rogue cultivators following Brother Tian?
Qi Shushu and Song Zijing watched with surging excitement, eager to join in.
But Ma Deju held them back and said, "You two, have you forgotten what Brother Tian said? You need to protect us!"
Only then did they remember Chu Tian's instructions before they went on stage.
He had told them to protect the Ma siblings.
And said, "Leave the rest to me!"
Qi Shushu and Song Zijing, after all, came from the eight great families.
They were somewhat resistant to Chu Tian's commanding words.
However, seeing that their elder brother, Ma Deju, obeyed Chu Tian without question,
they had no choice but to endure.
But at this moment, witnessing Chu Tian's invincible prowess ignited their fighting spirit.
"Oh..."
The two, held back by Ma Deju, replied, very reluctantly.
"Damn it..." Ma Deju cursed upon seeing their expressions.
But he didn't say anything else, as he also wanted to go up and fight...
In the front, the Lin siblings had already rejoined Chu Tian.
Their actions attracted the attention of everyone on擂台 No. 3.
Many combatants stopped fighting and moved to surround them.
In just a few minutes, the strength displayed by Chu Tian and the other three was too immense.
Over twenty people had already died by their hands.
These four did not attack others proactively; they simply continued to walk towards the center of the arena.
However, anyone who attacked them was directly killed.
Everything that happened here prompted the contestants on this arena to form an alliance.
Seeing this, Chu Tian and the other three stopped.
They were already very close to the center of the arena.
Chu Tian had originally planned to fight his way to the center of the arena, to attract the attention of this group.
Then he would drive them all off, and those who refused to leave... he would kill!
He hadn't expected these guys to discover them so quickly.
Although this group was no match for them, they were still sentient.
At this moment, on the towering spectator stands of the eight great families,
some people also noticed擂台 No. 3.
"Elder Qi... your Qi Shushu is there, right!"
The speaker was the patriarch of the Song family, Song Qingshan.
Beside him was the previous generation patriarch of the Qi family, Qi Shushu's grandfather, Qi Zhengyi.
"Mm... isn't your Song Zijing there too!" The old man Qi Zhengyi nodded.
He had been observing擂台 No. 7, where Qi Shushu's elder brother, Qi Shusheng, was located.
At this moment, Song Qingshan mentioning擂台 No. 3, he shifted his attention.
With a glance, he saw Qi Shushu, Song Zijing, and the Ma siblings, joining forces with Chu Tian.
He frowned, not fully understanding the situation on the field.
But he could see that the four in front were about to be surrounded and attacked.
Qi Shushu, this unfilial brat, why is he with them?
