Almost no one present believed that Lin Feng could defeat Gao Shan.
The next moment, Gao Shan was already in front of Lin Feng.
Lin Feng threw another punch!
But a cold smile curled across Gao Shan's lips!
His figure blurred, and he vanished from Lin Feng's sight.
When he appeared again, he had already flashed behind Lin Feng.
This immediately made the people below light up with excitement!
Then Gao Shan lifted his leg and swept it toward Lin Feng like a whip!
Smack!
At such terrifying speed, it produced a sonic boom!
This showed just how much force and speed that kick contained!
Yet in Lin Feng's eyes, the other man's speed was still far too slow.
He could evade the attack whenever he wanted!
But in order not to reveal too much of his strength,
he could only pretend to be a beat too slow!
He raised his right hand and blocked the kick.
With a muffled bang,
Lin Feng's body was struck by an enormous force and sent flying several yards away.
He staggered unsteadily, nearly falling to the ground.
To make it look more convincing, he even circulated his cultivation technique and forced out some blood.
"Whew!"
"What powerful legwork! Lin Feng really can't withstand it!"
"One kick injured him!"
The people below discussed it animatedly.
Chen Fei and the others grew tense again.
"If you still refuse to admit defeat, the next attack won't be so easy to block!
You might even die!"
Gao Shan looked at Lin Feng and warned him, while putting on a cold, aloof pose.
This drew countless female trainees' attention!
Lin Feng assumed a defensive stance and said nothing!
"Fine! Since you insist on remaining stubborn, I'll send you down myself!"
Seeing that his attempt to show off had failed,
Gao Shan vanished again, sprinting rapidly around the arena.
His extreme speed even dragged out afterimages!
"Spirit Snake Steps at Mastery!"
"Gao Shan is simply too powerful!"
"Back then, Gao Shan used these Mastery Spirit Snake Steps to defeat an old trainee in the Tendon Strengthening Realm.
Of course he's formidable!"
"To Lin Feng, this is undoubtedly a dimensional strike!"
The audience below continued talking, all of them praising Gao Shan.
Hearing their praise, Gao Shan let out an excited howl.
"Get down!"
Then more than a dozen leg shadows attacked from all directions. In everyone's eyes, Lin Feng could only defend passively.
He had no way to strike back at all.
"He's lost! At that speed, Lin Feng simply can't keep up! No matter how great his strength is, it's useless if he can't hit his enemy!"
Zhao Chengzhe said to Yu Qingqing beside him.
Yu Qingqing nodded in agreement.
The next moment, something happened that no one had expected.
Lin Feng actually exposed his chest, deliberately selling an opening, and Gao Shan kicked at him.
But Lin Feng caught his foot with one hand!
Then Lin Feng acted like a street thug in a brawl.
He kept taking Gao Shan's attacks himself.
Then, punch after punch, he greeted Gao Shan's body.
With one foot tightly seized, Gao Shan discovered that he could not break free no matter what he did.
He could only trade blows with Lin Feng.
But at that moment, he discovered that his punches had no effect at all when they landed on Lin Feng!
"Vajra Art—you cultivated Iron Shirt!"
Gao Shan was struck dumb with shock!
But Lin Feng ignored him completely. After several punches, Gao Shan's eyes bulged out, and even the breakfast he had eaten that morning came spilling out.
In the end, he could not endure any longer. Foam poured from his mouth, and he passed out cold.
"Lin... Lin Feng wins!"
Seeing this, the banner officer's mouth twitched as he announced Lin Feng's victory!
He had never seen anyone win an arena match like this before!
The two of them looked as though they had never learned martial arts, throwing wild turtle punches to decide the victor.
On the platform, Huang Qiong, Wu Peng, and Bai Sheng's mouths twitched as well.
Yet they had to admit that Lin Feng's talent and comprehension were indeed quite good.
In such a short time, he had actually cultivated Iron Shirt to a fairly high level!
Wu Peng's face darkened even further!
It would have been one thing if Li Qing lost, but even Gao Shan had lost!
This time, their team would receive far fewer resources than last time!
Bai Sheng also began to feel some regret.
For the sake of a little phantom salary, he had actually let a talent like Lin Feng slip away!
If Lin Feng had been under his command, he would at least be doing much better than under Ding Yun.
Perhaps they could even compete for the top five!
What a heartache!
Every additional person in the top five represented a vast amount of resources!
"But there's still a chance. I can poach him later! Ding Yun is probably so content to lie flat and ignore everything
that he won't say anything either!"
That was what Bai Sheng thought.
The people below had long since been stunned speechless.
After Lin Feng stepped down from the platform, Chen Fei, You Lin, and Mu Yu looked him up and down as though they had only just met him.
Their staring made Lin Feng's skin crawl.
Soon, the drawing of lots began again.
Lin Feng drew a trainee in the Tendon Strengthening Realm and ultimately pretended to be no match for him, suffering defeat!
After all, he had already secured two Bone Forging Pills by entering the top ten.
If he kept pretending, he would be treating everyone else like fools!
Still, revealing a little of his strength this time had its benefits. If part of his strength were exposed in the future,
it would seem more natural.
After all, he was now someone who could rely on strategy, defense, and astonishing strength to defeat a Late Bone Forging opponent.
Later matches saw Zhao Chengzhe face Li Wuyi again.
But Zhao Chengzhe still edged out Li Wuyi and defeated him.
This infuriated Li Wuyi beyond measure!
Wu Qingtong, another prodigy of the Four Great Families, fought Yu Qingqing to a draw.
In the end, Zhao Chengzhe took first place, while Li Wuyi took second.
Yu Qingqing and Wu Qingtong tied for third place.
Lin Feng ranked last among the top ten.
In everyone's eyes, Lin Feng had undoubtedly been possessed by the Emperor of Luck.
If not for his good luck, there was absolutely no way he could have entered the top ten!
But in truth, the three chief banner officers, along with Zhao Chengzhe and the other outstanding youths, all knew that Lin Feng was no ordinary person!
By the afternoon,
outside Lin Feng's home,
a matchmaker confirmed the address and rushed toward Lin Feng's door, as though she feared someone else would beat her to it.
"Is this Lord Lin's home?"
The matchmaker knocked on the door.
At that moment, Lin Man opened the gate, still holding a candied hawthorn skewer.
She licked it bite by bite.
"Who are you looking for?"
Lin Man asked.
"Oh my, what a pretty little girl! Is this Lord Lin Feng's home?"
The matchmaker praised Lin Man, then continued asking.
"Yes, Lin Feng is my elder brother. Are you looking for him? He isn't home."
Lin Man bit off a candied hawthorn and warily watched the mole-faced matchmaker.
"Oh, I'm not here to see Lord Lin. I'm here to see Old Madam Lin!"
The matchmaker said.
At that moment, Mother Lin came out of the house.
"Oh, you must be Mother Lin! I've come on behalf of the Qian Family of the Inner City to propose marriage to your Lin boy.
The Qian Family is a wealthy household living in the Inner City.
The Qian Family's second miss is incomparably beautiful.
..."
The matchmaker rattled off a long string of praises, describing the Qian Family's second miss as rare in heaven and unmatched on earth.
Only then did Mother Lin come to her senses.
She had never imagined that such a prominent household would take the initiative to come to her door.
What was going on?
But this was undoubtedly a joyful matter. Ever since Lin Feng had been abandoned by Zhu Cui'er, she had kept finding him a wife at the forefront of her mind!
Yet what she had not expected was
that after she invited this matchmaker into the house, quite a few more matchmakers arrived one after another.
For a time, the Lin Household looked like a wholesale matchmaker factory.
