When Li Changying stepped onto the stage, although there was a cheer from below, the martial artist on stage did not feel good.

Li Changying is a ruthless man, the Northwest God of War. He dared to challenge Boss Zhou's group, who had compressed their Dantian Qi to four or five levels, even though he ultimately failed. However, the people of the Beehive acknowledged Li Changying's strength.

Knowing he was no match for Li Changying, he decided to spar with him briefly and then admit defeat, since losing to Li Changying wouldn't be shameful.

Li Changying completely disregarded the boy's thoughts. Without even saying hello, he charged forward in one swift step, wielding his Iron Cavalry Spear.

The Long Spear transformed into a straight line, thrusting out with a single strike, causing a surge of Killing Aura to erupt around it!

Such a simple shot carries the momentum of a thousand troops charging forward; a timid person might not even dare to touch it before being defeated.

This is a skill that Li Changying honed during his long battles against foreign enemies in the Northwest: a skill that never returns after a single strike, and a decisive and ruthless approach to killing!

Lin Zhen, watching from below the stage, also became serious upon seeing Li Changying's shot.

When Lin Zhen saw Li Changying by Tree Heart Lake that day, he had been fighting for a long time, was exhausted, and had been injured in many places. He had not shown his strength, but Lin Zhen already knew how powerful he was.

This was the first truly skilled marksman Lin Zhen had encountered since his rebirth, and his Spear Art offered Lin Zhen much to learn from.

Lin Zhen was learning, but the martial artist on the stage couldn't stand it. He hurriedly took two steps back and raised his sword to block, but the difference in strength was huge, and he had no momentum at all. How could he possibly block it?

The steel blade flew away at the touch of the Long Spear, but Li Changying did not stop. He continued to thrust the Long Spear forward, piercing his opponent's shoulder with a single thrust!

This caused him to desperately grip Li Changying's spear shaft with both hands, trying not to let the Long Spear pierce his body, but his body was still lifted into the air. Li Changying rushed all the way to the edge of the arena before suddenly pulling his feet back!

Due to inertia, this person was thrown off the stage and eliminated!

With just one shot, Li Changying ended the battle!

With Heavenly Strength and Heavenly God speed, Li Changying is indeed a genius blessed with extraordinary talent.

"Wow! Li Changying is amazing!"

"You're only just realizing this? Li Changying has always been this strong. In the past two years, he's the only one who dared to go against Boss Zhou. How could he not be strong?"

"However, I don't have high hopes for their team. Although Li Changying is strong, he can only fight one battle. The battles to come will be difficult."

"Not necessarily. Zhao Xiaoman is no weakling either; she might even win another match."

"It's no use that she's not weak; just look at the ones behind her, they're doomed to lose."

Li Changying stepped down from the arena with a smile on his face and was greeted like a hero by Lin Zhen and the others.

"Wow, the Northwest God of War is truly remarkable."

"I admire you. From now on, we'll be on the same team. We can practice with each other when we have free time and improve together."

Li Changying nodded to the people, then suddenly said, "Then you all better not lose to me on the stage. I only used one move to deal with my opponent."

Lou Qingfeng immediately cried out, "That's not fair! Your opponent is the weakest!"

Jiang Huai nodded. "It's alright, the difference in strength is negligible. I will try my best not to lose to you."

Lin Zhen remained silent, but he was also filled with fighting spirit; the captain couldn't be too incompetent.

The second person to appear was Zhao Xiaoman, who immediately attracted a lot of attention when she stepped onto the stage.

As a beautiful woman, Zhao Xiaoman attracted a lot of attention here, but she wasn't beautiful enough to be considered outrageously beautiful, so when she was poisoned, everyone Xuan Ze to stand by and do nothing.

Zhao Xiaoman puffed out her chest. "Which of you defeated opponents will step forward?"

As a former member of the West Third Team, Zhao Xiaoman had defeated the West Fifth Team, so when she challenged them, the second martial artist from the opposing team came up on stage, he was also furious.

"Zhao Xiaoman, don't be so arrogant. Do you still think you're back in the West Third Team? Can your current teammates compare to the West Third Team? Don't cry if you lose later."

"You guys can't do it!"

Without saying a word, Zhao Xiaoman drew her sword and attacked.

This martial artist immediately engaged Zhao Xiaoman in combat, but his actual strength was not as good as Zhao Xiaoman's. This time, their calculations were somewhat flawed. They thought that Zhao Xiaoman might be the last to appear, so they put the three double-compression matches at the end to ensure victory in the last three matches.

The two fought for five minutes, but in the end, Zhao Xiaoman was more skilled. Under the continuous Sword Rain, her opponent had more than a dozen wounds and rolled off the stage with a scream.

After Zhao Xiaoman stepped off the stage in high spirits, Lin Zhen patted her head and said, "Well done, Xiaoman, great job!"

"Of course, this is only because the toxins in my body haven't been completely cleared out yet. If he hadn't been poisoned, he would have lasted at most two minutes."

"Don't worry, Xiaoman, Big Brother Lin will definitely get you a Star Crystal today to completely remove the toxins from your body."

Lin Zhen promised Zhao Xiaoman, and she will definitely keep her word.

Although the loss in the second game was somewhat unexpected, the other team did not lose confidence. They believed that as long as they won three games in a row, they could turn the tide.

So the third person to appear was full of energy and vowed to win.

On Lin Zhen's side, Lou Qingfeng was the third to appear.

Seeing that Lou Qingfeng hadn't even completed the first level of compression, the martial artist at the second level of compression sneered, "You guys really can't find anyone. You've put all sorts of random people together. This is practically handing me food."

As he spoke, he shouted to the team captain below, "Boss, it's two to one now."

The leader made an OK sign, still confident and composed.

Just as I turned my head, Lou Qingfeng from the opposite side pounced on me!

Five Long Sword were drawn simultaneously, unleashing his strongest move, Sword River!

The five Long Sword swirled together, stirring up gusts of wind and thunder, like a rolling dragon that roared in!

Underestimating his opponent, he had no time to dodge. Fortunately, he had a shield as a weapon, and he tried his best to hide behind the shield to withstand Lou Qingfeng's attack!

Boom!

A figure was blasted off the stage like a cannonball, flying dozens of meters before crashing into a tree branch and coming to a stop, his body sliding down like mud.

The shield was shattered into pieces by Lou Qingfeng's attack, and was in a terrible state.

One move!

With another move, Lou Qingfeng defeated his opponent in one strike.

Afterwards, ignoring the stunned audience, Lou Qingfeng happily stepped off the stage and ran to Li Changying: "Northwest God of War, how did I do?"

Li Changying smiled slightly and gave Lou Qingfeng a thumbs up, "To my surprise, I couldn't withstand this move head-on."

Lin Zhen and Jiang Huai also congratulated Lou Qingfeng. However, although both of them used only one move, Li Changying's move was effortless, while Lou Qingfeng's move was almost all-out, indicating that there was still a considerable gap between the two.

Lou Qingfeng was well aware of this, but he was already quite satisfied to defeat his opponent in one move. There was also an element of his opponent underestimating him in this battle.

With three wins out of three, Lin Zhen's team has won 3-0, eliminating West Fifth Team and losing their place.

The West Fifth Team was dumbfounded for a long time, and in the end, they had no choice but to accept their fate.

The captain and the second-best fighter were both at the back of the line, and they were still cursing as they left.

"You guys are just lucky. If Zhao Xiaoman had faced someone stronger, and I had been the third to go on stage, the outcome would be different. The difference in strength between us wouldn't be that big. If we had continued fighting, it would have been three to two. You wait, we'll be back sooner or later."

Lin Zhen looked at them, then said to Tong Huan, "Could we finish the remaining matches?"

Tong Huan nodded. "It's possible, but the result can't be changed, so this kind of battle is meaningless."

"No, it's meaningful. The meaning of the battle is to shut them up completely. On the other side, do you dare to finish the fight?" Lin Zhen asked loudly.

The people on the other side were already dissatisfied, and when they heard Lin Zhen challenge them, the captain immediately agreed.

"Alright! Let's call it a day. But Tong Huan, we have a deal. This fight was initiated by them. If they get injured or maimed by us, we won't be responsible."

"In martial arts competitions, injuries are common, and we are not responsible for them."

"Alright! Come on, who's the fourth one? Hurry up and come up on stage to face your doom."

The second-best player on the opposing team stepped forward and took the initiative to challenge them.

Jiang Huai straightened his clothes. "It's my turn. I thought I didn't have a chance to play. This is like a pie falling from the sky."

Upon seeing Jiang Huai step onto the stage, the opposing martial artist's expression turned serious, because Jiang Huai was also a martial artist at the second level of the Compression Realm, and his realm was comparable to his own, so he was not certain of victory.

This was their only concern, but seeing that Jiang Huai always had a smile on his face, they figured he wasn't very strong.

Tong Huan shouted "Start!" Jiang Huai made his move.

Jiang Huai's weapon was a sword. He thrust out with his sword, which looked somewhat light and soft, but it was not slow.

"Is that all you've got?" The opposing martial artist immediately breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to retaliate.

But just as Jiang Huai's sword approached, it flew out of his hand, as fast as lightning, and pierced through his opponent's abdomen in an instant.

Jiang Huai accelerated, leaping directly behind his opponent, catching the sword that had pierced through his body, wiping the blood off the sword with a handkerchief, sheathing the sword, and stepping off the stage.

As soon as he stepped off the stage, his opponent collapsed to the ground, seriously injured and unable to get up!

Another move to defeat the opponent, this series of moves has left the audience dumbfounded.

"This team is amazing! They have so many experts!"

"It seems that only the captain is relatively weak. He must be a strategist, which explains why he was the last to appear."

"He probably thought that if the front line was set up, the back line wouldn't have to fight."

"Even if he wins, that's it. His teammates are all one-hit wonders. Can he surpass them? Sigh, West Fifth Team is finished. They lost 4-1."

People were talking about it, and all their eyes were on Lin Zhen.

Jiang Huai and the others all had a hint of smugness in their eyes, thinking to themselves, "Lin Zhen, you are the captain and you are strong, but aren't you just like us? At most, you can only take one move."

Today, I'm adding a fifth chapter as a bonus, in honor of the book's Hall Master (Jin Jueqi Chao).
