"Heh, Lin Yu had only cultivated for a little over a year, yet he dared to challenge Core Disciples more than four years older than himself—and top geniuses like Hu Liena, Yan, and Xie Yue at that. If he dared to show up, he was just courting death," a Core Disciple said coldly.
"Exactly! How could he possibly beat Hu Liena and the others? Who knew where that kid got his courage from?"
"Do you think Lin Yu got scared and didn't dare come?"
"I'd say that's very likely. Maybe after hearing about the strength of Hu Liena's group, Lin Yu realized he couldn't beat them and suddenly got scared and chickened out. Hehahaha!" another Core Disciple mocked in a low voice.
But Dugu Bo heard every word. He said icily, "What do you brats know? Lin Yu is not someone who would fear or retreat. Shut your mouths! Otherwise, don't blame this old man for giving you a little education in love."
That immediately frightened quite a few disciples.
Chrysanthemum Douluo raised an orchid finger and snorted. "Old Poison, you're quite protective of Lin Yu, aren't you?"
"What? Chrysanthemum Pass, you got a problem with that?"
"Hmph! Old Poison, if you hadn't joined Spirit Hall now, I would've skinned you alive!"
"Come on, then! You think I'm afraid of you?"
Dugu Bo showed no fear as he directly fired back at Chrysanthemum Douluo.
"You!" Chrysanthemum Douluo was furious, but he forcibly suppressed his anger and stopped arguing with him.
And it was at that moment that Lin Yu finally arrived!
Lin Yu appeared at the entrance to the dueling arena. Beside him stood someone clad in a golden cloak, wearing a hood and a veil over their face.
That person was Qian Renxue.
Until Lin Yu and Qian Renxue fulfilled Bibi Dong's two conditions and defeated Tuoba Xi, she could not reveal herself before outsiders. Thus, Qian Renxue could only appear in this manner.
"He's here!!"
"Lin Yu is here!!"
The entire venue instantly erupted.
"Sister Xue'er, I'm going."
"Go, Lin Yu. Today, you will become the most dazzling presence here."
"Yeah, of course." Lin Yu smiled.
Amid the clamor, noise, and the convergence of every gaze, he began to walk.
Step by step, he entered the dueling arena.
Dugu Yan shouted loudly, "Go, Lin Yu!"
"Young Clan Leader!"
"Young Clan Leader!"
"Young Clan Leader!"
Several dozen young Spirit Masters of the Angel Clan also cheered loudly for Lin Yu.
But clearly, the voices supporting him were somewhat weak.
There were far more supporters of Hu Liena's group.
Lin Yu did not care. He slowly raised his head and extended his left hand, pointing at Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan, who were still outside the arena. Not intending to waste any words, he went straight to the point. "Hey, which of you three is coming up first?"
"Xie Yue, Yan, there's no need for you two three-ring Soul Elders to deal with this arrogant brat. I'll teach him a lesson myself!" Hu Liena said confidently. Then, with a flip and leap, she landed in the dueling arena.
"Lin Yu, I, Hu Liena, will be the one to defeat you and put an end to that ridiculous confidence of yours!"
As she spoke, a seductive smile appeared on Hu Liena's lips. Swaying her sexy, rounded hips, she sauntered over to Lin Yu's side.
Her sensual lips parted slightly as she slowly moved close to Lin Yu's ear. Her tone was bewitching, but her words were filled with malice. "Kid, you dared to call my teacher an ungrateful wretch. I, Hu Liena, won't let you off easily today. I'll make you pay for your words and actions!"
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Hu Liena's face for an instant, but she soon revealed a seductive smile again. "Hehe~ Don't be scared. Big Sister will definitely make you feel very good later."
Hu Liena placed a hand on Lin Yu's shoulder and circled around him in an extremely provocative manner.
Just as she was about to remove her hand and leave, Lin Yu suddenly raised his left hand and forcefully gripped Hu Liena's chin. With interest, he said, "You probably aren't capable of standing up for your teacher, but I'm very much looking forward to seeing just how good you can make me feel."
"Get lost!"
With that, Lin Yu directly flung Hu Liena's chin away.
"You!"
That action instantly sent Hu Liena into a rage.
She had come over to provoke and anger Lin Yu, yet she had not expected to be the one provoked into anger by Lin Yu's words and actions.
"Fine! Just you wait!" Hu Liena gritted her teeth and retreated to her position.
"Hu Liena, Martial Soul: Demonic Fox. Level 29 Control System Spirit Master!"
"Martial Soul Possession!"
A pink Demonic Fox appeared behind her, while two yellow spirit rings emerged beneath her feet.
"Level 29? As expected of His Holiness the Pope's personal disciple! If I remember correctly, Hu Liena is only eleven and a half this year, right?"
"Having cultivated to Level 29 at such a young age, she may very well be another genius who reaches the Soul Elder realm at twelve!"
Hu Liena's display slightly stunned the onlookers.
But Lin Yu's voice rang out at the most inappropriate moment. "Level 29? You probably won't last more than ten moves against me."
He said it with perfect calm, yet the entire scene instantly erupted.
"Huh? Did I hear that right? What did he say? He actually said Hu Liena wouldn't last ten moves against him? Hahaha, damn, this Lin Yu is way too confident!"
"I'm dying laughing. Where did he get the nerve to say something like that?!"
"Hu Liena's strength isn't just her talent—she's a genius who can challenge Soul Elders above her level. This kid won't be feeling so confident soon. The more confident he is now, the more pathetic he'll look later!"
"Sigh, an Inheritor of God is naturally beyond ordinary geniuses. If it were a year from now, Lin Yu might really surpass Hu Liena and the other two. But he's so ignorant, arrogant, and dismissive of his opponent—can someone like that really cultivate to godhood in the future?"
Quite a few higher-ups who had originally supported Lin Yu were now deeply disappointed. In their eyes, Lin Yu was bound to lose.
Tuoba Xi said, "Looks like I won't even need to make a move two years from now."
Chrysanthemum Douluo also shook his head mockingly. "This brat has no self-awareness at all. Lin Yu is definitely going to lose."
Many Core Disciples and higher-ups present were sneering inwardly as well.
Bibi Dong was even more delighted. The more conceited and arrogant Lin Yu was, the harder he would be hit when he was defeated. There was a high chance that his heart as a genius would be shattered, leaving him utterly dispirited.
She could hardly wait to see Lin Yu crushed by her own disciple. "Nana, go!"
Yet every person who looked down on, underestimated, and mocked Lin Yu would soon be slapped hard in the face!
Lin Yu's battle to challenge Spirit Hall's three top geniuses had officially begun!
"Second Spirit Ability, Fox Charm!"
"Hehe~" With a sweet laugh, Hu Liena seductively brushed back her hair, and a pink light of enchantment swept across the arena.
"When I was six, my teacher gave me special training in enchantment. No one below the Soul Ancestor rank can resist my enchanting spirit ability!"
"It's over, Lin Yu!!"
