We, the Lin Family, Accept This Gambling Match! (3)

"Have you all obtained enough Identity Tokens?" Lin Tianci turned to look at Lin Dong and the younger members of the Savage Blade Martial Hall.

"Mm." Wu Yun and Lin Dong both nodded.

Their strength was quite formidable. At the very least, Hunting posed no difficulty for them.

"Since that's the case, let's head up there." Lin Tianci looked toward where Lei Li and the others had been standing earlier, a flicker of Killing Intent passing through his eyes.

Lei Li wanted to deal with him on the Giant Platform, but hadn't Lin Tianci also wanted to crush the pride of the Lei and Xie Families beneath his feet under the watchful eyes of countless people?

Lin Tianci, Lin Dong, and the others then raced at full speed into the dense forest.

They encountered some other contestants along the way, but when those people saw Lin Tianci among the group, their expressions changed. They immediately gave up any thought of snatching Identity Plates.

Before long, the group arrived at the heart of the forest.

They followed a rugged trail up to the mountaintop.

Before the stone platform at the summit stood several referees, inspecting the Identity Plates of everyone who ascended the platform.

When they saw the dozens of Identity Plates Lin Tianci took out, their eyes widened in astonishment.

Just how many factions had Lin Tianci robbed?

After the inspection, Lin Tianci and the others stepped onto the High Platform.

"I knew it. That brat Tianci wouldn't let me down." Seeing the figures who had just ascended the Giant Platform, Lin Zhentian, seated at the very front of the viewing area, could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

Though he had absolute faith in Lin Tianci's strength, Lin Zhentian and the others still could not help but worry.

"Dad, I told you long ago that for Tianci and Dong'er, getting ten Identity Plates would be an easy task." Lin Ken smiled as he spoke from the side.

Though he said that, the fist he had been clenching finally loosened.

The moment he stepped onto the Giant Platform, Lin Tianci immediately sensed countless gazes converging on him from every direction.

At that moment, countless people instinctively turned to look at him.

Obtaining ten Identity Plates made one a minor expert even in Qingyang Town.

Lin Tianci noticed that across from him, Lei Li and the other younger members of the Lei and Xie Families had also stepped onto the Giant Platform.

At once, Lin Tianci heard the crowd erupt into discussion.

"What's going on? Lei Li is up there, so why isn't Xie Yingying?"

"Lei Li looks terrible. What happened to him?"

"Li'er, was Yingying delayed by something? Why hasn't she come up?" Xie Qian immediately asked.

Lei Li took a deep breath, cupped his fists toward Xie Qian, and apologetically recounted what had happened during the earlier Hunting.

"What?" Xie Qian's eyes widened, his gaze filled with disbelief.

"You're saying that Lin Tianci alone crippled all the younger members of our Xie and Lei Families?"

Bang! The cup in Lei Li's hand was crushed to pieces!

A surge of fury spread through the seats of the Lei and Xie Families.

"Grandpa, Uncle Xie, during this Hunting, our people from the Lei and Xie Families also encountered a severely wounded Fire Python Tiger. We went through great trouble to surround and kill it, but at the last moment, Lin Tianci appeared. Not only did he ambush and severely wound Yingying, he even stole all four Fire Python Tiger Cubs! Grandpa, please uphold justice for us!"

Lei Li's following words stunned everyone. Once they recovered, the entire venue erupted into an uproar.

Whether it was the Lei Family, the Xie Family, or even Lin Zhentian and the others, all of them abruptly rose to their feet, their expressions changing drastically!

Clearly, the heads of the various factions understood even better what the Fire Python Tiger Cubs represented!

Four cubs meant four future Sky Realm experts. No family could possibly ignore such a force!

"Is that really so?" A fiery gleam flashed in Lei Bao's eyes. After exchanging a glance with Xie Qian, he said, "The Fire Python Tiger Cubs were discovered by our Lei and Xie Families. Their ownership naturally belongs to our Lei and Xie Families."

"What ownership?" Lin Tianci frowned, clearly not expecting Lei Bao to be so shameless. "The Fire Python Tiger was originally ownerless. Since they couldn't seize it, it only meant they lacked the ability."

"I sent them flying with a single punch. What right do you have to demand the Fire Python Tiger Cubs from me?"

"Heavenly treasures belong to those fated to obtain them. If this counts as theft, then doesn't your Lei Family steal from my Lin Family every single day?" Lin Zhentian spoke at this moment as well.

Yet one could see that his hands were trembling slightly as he spoke.

Clearly, this was from excitement.

"But the younger members of our Lei and Xie Families also contributed. If you refuse to give us an explanation, I'm afraid this won't be easy to settle." Lei Bao refused to yield an inch.

Four Fire Python Tiger Cubs were worth tearing off all pretenses for!

"This Lei Bao is truly shameless!" A trace of murderous intent flashed through Lin Tianci's eyes.

His strength had now reached the peak of the Yuan Realm. One more step, and he would enter the Sky Realm.

The day he entered the Sky Realm would be the day the Lei and Xie Families perished!

"Then what do you want?" Lin Zhentian frowned upon hearing this.

The Lei and Xie Families were now united. If this matter was not handled properly, it could truly become troublesome.

"Since that's the case, why not use this Hunting as an opportunity for a Gambling Match? The stakes will be the Fire Python Tiger Cubs." Lei Bao's eyes darkened as his voice turned icy.

"The Fire Python Tiger was something my Xie Family contributed to as well. My Xie Family is joining!" Xie Qian spoke from the side.

"What?" Lin Zhentian's face darkened at that moment.

Two families against one—there was no need to think about it to know that their chances of winning were exceedingly slim.

The words of the Lei and Xie Families threw the venue into an uproar.

Lei Li alone was enough to give Lin Tianci a hard time. If they added the Xie Family Genius as well, the Lin Family was doomed to lose the Fire Python Tiger Cubs!

"Since it is a Gambling Match, the stakes should at least be equal." Lin Tianci spoke at this moment.

"My Lei Family will stake Ironwood Manor! If Lei Li loses to Lin Tianci in this match, I will offer Ironwood Manor with both hands!"

"My Xie Family's stake will be the Xie Family Auction House. Old Lin, are these stakes enough?" Xie Qian said indifferently. "If Xie Tian of my Xie Family loses to Lin Tianci, the Xie Family Auction House will bear the Lin Family name from then on."

It was a Gambling Match they were certain to win. No matter what he put up as collateral, he did not feel the slightest heartache.

"Xie Tian?" Lin Zhentian's pupils abruptly contracted upon hearing Xie Qian's words.

Xie Tian was a younger member of the Xie Family who had long been famous.

Because of his exceptional talent, he had been taken in by a major faction in Yan City at a young age. Lin Zhentian had not expected him to return for this Hunting!

"Dad, perhaps we should forget it." Lin Ken and the other two hesitated before speaking through gritted teeth in low voices.

Lin Tianci would be facing two opponents alone, both younger figures who had long been renowned in Qingyang Town. The odds of victory were truly far too low!

Lin Zhentian sighed inwardly.

He had long coveted Ironwood Manor and the Xie Family Auction House, but judging by the current situation, Lin Tianci's chances of winning were far too small.

Just as Lin Zhentian was about to refuse, a clear voice rang out from the stone platform, jolting everyone's spirits.

"We, the Lin Family, accept this Gambling Match!"
