Chapter 397 - 354: Harboring Ill Intentions, Are You Really Students?
Chapter 397: Chapter 354: Harboring Ill Intentions, Are You Really Students?
Never mind him; anyone would find this fact hard to believe.
’Lin Yi is this strong at such a young age?’
’Could he even be called human? He’s more terrifying than a monster.’
The next moment, his eyes hardened.
His entire aura changed in an instant. He looked up, his gaze fixed on Lin Yi.
Behind him, the spectral image of a massive, black-furred gorilla materialized.
Simultaneously, his body began to swell rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, he had grown to over two meters in height.
His frame became massive and brawny, his bulging muscles a frightening sight.
The gorilla behind him continuously pounded its chest.
ROAR—
A furious roar echoed throughout the entire stadium.
The oppressive aura that spread out along with it sent the students into a panic.
Director Qiao’s and Zhong Yan’s expressions changed.
They both took a hurried step forward. Old He, Yanyang, and the others also grew more solemn.
Gazing at Song Rentou on the stage and the gorilla behind him...
Everyone present asked themselves the same silent question.
’If they were the ones on the stage facing Song Rentou...’
’...who among them could be his match?’
The answer was obvious: only Old He stood a chance against him.
But whether he could actually win was anyone’s guess.
Even if Meng Die and Yang Biao were here, they wouldn’t be able to say for certain who had the upper hand.
The gorilla behind Song Rentou was no longer just a spectral image.
It had become far more substantial.
It looked almost like a real, living gorilla...
However, as Lin Yi looked at Song Rentou and his gorilla...
...there wasn’t a trace of fear on his face. Instead, he chuckled. "Are you ready?"
"Lin Yi, you’re the one who said it. We’re not just fighting for victory, but to the death!"
"Everyone here can bear witness. Don’t say I’m bullying you..."
After Song Rentou finished speaking coldly, the gorilla behind him let out another furious roar.
The next moment, Song Rentou struck first.
He took huge strides, charging toward Lin Yi.
While still several meters away, Song Rentou brought his enormous fist crashing down on Lin Yi.
However...
Lin Yi stood there, perfectly still.
Just as the fist was about to land...
SHLICK—
With a soft sound, blood sprayed out.
A long spear had pierced straight through Song Rentou’s fist.
Blood gushed out, splattering across the stage.
"Aaargh..."
Song Rentou screamed in pain, stumbling backward.
"You... You’re despicable! You used a weapon?"
Lin Yi glanced at him with a smile. "Was there a rule against using weapons?"
"Fine. If you don’t like me using a weapon, I won’t."
Lin Yi retracted the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear into his Storage Magical Artifact.
The next moment, the smile vanished from Lin Yi’s eyes.
Killing intent radiated from him.
Instantly, everyone around the stage felt an indescribable sense of dread.
Then, with a push of his foot, Lin Yi shot toward Song Rentou.
Before Song Rentou could react, a barrage of fists, like raindrops in a storm, fell upon his body.
In the space of just a few breaths, he had already thrown hundreds of punches.
Every punch landed solidly, sending a chill down the spines of the onlookers.
After throwing so many punches that even Lin Yi himself lost count, he leaped back, creating some distance from Song Rentou.
He then unleashed another punch from afar.
A massive golden fist materialized and shot straight toward Song Rentou.
BOOM—
The force of this punch was so immense that it sent the two-meter-tall Song Rentou flying right off the stage.
While he was still in mid-air...
...his body rapidly deflated.
By the time he hit the ground, he had returned to his normal size.
The gorilla phantom had also completely dispersed the moment that punch struck.
Pfft...
Song Rentou spat out a mouthful of blood.
He struggled to raise his head, trying to get one last look at Lin Yi on the stage.
But he couldn’t draw another breath and collapsed.
Dead.
The students from the Asia Alliance all rushed over.
After confirming that Song Rentou was dead, they looked up at Lin Yi on the stage, their faces filled with hatred.
But they didn’t say a word, simply carrying Song Rentou’s body away in silence.
In several consecutive fights, Lin Yi had achieved flawless, one-sided victories.
Even Song Rentou, a Star Tempering Realm cultivator, couldn’t withstand a single punch from Lin Yi.
It made them all gasp in shock.
"My junior brother is this strong now?"
Zhong Yan couldn’t help but chuckle.
Beside him, Old He couldn’t hide his astonishment. "I’m afraid Lin Yi has already reached the Divine Abyss Realm!"
"What? The Divine Abyss Realm?"
Zhong Yan, Director Qiao, and the others were all stunned.
After a long moment, realization dawned on Zhong Yan. "No wonder that kid spent so long in seclusion on the mountain again!"
"So he was really trying to break through to the next realm?"
"How much time has passed? From the Star Tempering Realm to the Divine Abyss Realm in just over half a year!"
"That kid’s talent is terrifying!"
"What? From the Star Tempering Realm to the Divine Abyss Realm in only half a year?"
Director Qiao and the others turned to look at Zhong Yan in horror.
They didn’t even know when Lin Yi had reached the Star Tempering Realm.
Zhong Yan nodded. "Director Qiao, my junior brother is a student at your school!"
"You don’t know when he reached the Star Tempering Realm?"
As soon as he said this, Director Qiao’s face flushed beet-red.
Forget the Star Tempering Realm, they had no idea when he’d even become a 7-star Martial Artist.
If it weren’t for the 6-star Martial Artist certification badge he wore, they wouldn’t have even known he was a 6-star Martial Artist...
Director Qiao gave an embarrassed laugh. "It’s truly shameful. We’ve been neglectful of our students!"
Zhong Yan just smiled.
Just then, the representatives of the five Outer Alliances all walked over to Old He.
Filled with righteous indignation, they spoke one after another. "Director He, this is unfair! Completely unfair!"
"You’ve been killing people this whole time! You killed several of our students, and now even the representative from the Asia Alliance is dead!"
"This is a Martial Arts exchange! A friendly competition! Not a license for you to kill as you please!"
"A life for a life! We demand the Huawu Alliance give us an explanation for our dead students..."
Gusier’s face was contorted with fury.
The other representatives all nodded in agreement.
Old He smiled, but before he could speak, a group of people walked in from outside the stadium.
"Aren’t you ashamed of yourselves, saying things like that? Demanding an explanation from us?
We’re the ones who want an explanation from you!"
"Are those people really university students? And are all of you representatives really university coaches?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned to look toward the stadium entrance.
Tang Baichuan was walking in, followed by Meng Die, Wei Nan, Sun Tao, and Zhou Qi.
In Tang Baichuan’s hand was a file.
He walked straight toward Old He and the Outer Alliance representatives.
Immediately after, people from the Demon Hunting Bureau, the Left Guard, and the Right Guard...
...all flooded into the stadium...
