Brother Lin Fan, Defeating Me Only Takes One Move!

The sudden voice made the Trial Hall fall into a brief silence.

Then, one gaze after another gathered on Lin Dong, all wanting to see what choice he would make.

Qing Tan frowned and said, "Lin Hong is really hateful. Grandpa already announced the Clan Competition rankings, yet he still dares to speak up and question them."

Lin Xiao also frowned slightly, somewhat worried for Lin Dong.

During this Clan Competition, Lin Dong had not revealed too much of his strength, so it was not just them; many people did not think highly of Lin Dong.

Lin Fan chuckled and said, "Third Uncle, Qing Tan, you don't need to worry. Lin Hong is no match for Lin Dong. By challenging Lin Dong, he's only bringing humiliation on himself!"

Lin Dong said in a clear voice, "Why wouldn't I dare?"

After saying that, Lin Dong strode to the side of the stone platform, then leaped up and landed on it.

Seeing this, Lin Hong's expression turned even darker. He left his seat at once and quickly climbed onto the stone platform.

"The match begins!"

After seeing that both of them were ready, Lin Ken waved his hand and announced.

Lin Hong looked coldly at Lin Dong and said in an icy voice, "Lin Dong, next, I'll let you know that people who rely on tricks are destined to be a joke!"

After saying that, Lin Hong took two swift strides and quickly appeared before Lin Dong. A sharp palm wind slammed heavily toward Lin Dong.

Lin Dong said calmly, "Looks like you're treating me like a soft persimmon."

The next moment, Lin Dong no longer held back his strength. Yuan power gathered in his palm, and he directly collided with Lin Hong's palm.

Bang!

Their palms clashed, producing a dull sound.

In the next instant, Lin Hong's body was actually like a kite with its string cut, flying backward and falling off the platform.

Lin Dong, however, stood steadily in place, unmoving like an iron tower!

"How could this be?"

This scene made many people in the Trial Hall feel that it was hard to believe.

Lin Hong, who was at Body Tempering Stage Seventh Level, had been defeated by Lin Fan with one palm, and that was one thing. But now he had actually been knocked off the stone platform by Lin Dong with one palm as well. What exactly was wrong with this world?

Crack!

In the seats, Lin Mang's expression changed abruptly. He shattered the armrest of his chair with a palm and suddenly stood up, his face so dark it was almost dripping water!

"That damned brat..."

Lin Xiao stared blankly at Lin Dong on the stone platform, the expression on his face turning extremely complicated.

He had not yet fully digested the shock Lin Fan had given him earlier, and now Lin Dong had actually given him a huge surprise as well!

Looking at Lin Dong's performance, an uncontrollable wild joy surged in Lin Zhentian's eyes once more!

"Impossible! I don't believe it!"

Lin Hong suffered another blow and completely descended into madness. He roared, pushed the yuan power within his body to the limit, and very quickly rushed back onto the stone platform, looking as though he wanted to fight Lin Dong to the death!

Lin Dong frowned. His two palms were like iron pincers as he firmly locked Lin Hong in place, preparing to throw him off the stone platform again.

"Get lost!"

Suddenly, a furious shout rang out. It was Lin Mang, who could no longer endure it. He abruptly descended from the sky, his large hand like an eagle's claw as it grabbed toward Lin Dong.

Lin Dong was startled and hurriedly let go, revealing all his strength. It was shockingly the Body Tempering Stage Eighth Level!

But he still could not avoid Lin Mang's large hand!

"You get lost too! Don't touch my son!" Lin Xiao shouted, rushing over at high speed and blocking Lin Mang's attack for Lin Dong.

The two exchanged one blow, and Lin Mang was actually shaken right off the stone platform!

Lin Ken, who had originally intended to step in and stop Lin Mang, saw this scene, and his footsteps instantly froze.

On the chief seat, Lin Zhentian, who had been about to fly into a rage, also had the anger on his face come to an abrupt stop at that moment!

It was not just them. Inside the Trial Hall, the invited guests were also shaken when they saw the formidable strength Lin Xiao displayed.

The Lin Clan's strength seemed as if it was about to climb to another level!

Lin Zhentian leaped onto the stone platform in delight, grabbed Lin Xiao by the shoulders, and the father and son had an excited conversation. After that, Lin Zhentian sternly reprimanded Lin Mang, then announced the end of the Clan Competition.

After Lin Ken finished handling the situation, several important figures of the Lin Clan all gathered in the Lin Clan Backyard.

Lin Zhentian sat upright in the chief seat, his face still carrying some anger.

Below him were Lin Ken, Lin Mang, Lin Xiao, and the other direct members of the Lin Clan.

In addition, Lin Fan, Lin Dong, Lin Xia, and Qing Tan, who were the top three of the Clan Competition along with Qing Tan, had also gathered in the courtyard.

Lin Zhentian first reprimanded Lin Mang, then handed Flame Manor, which Lin Mang had been responsible for, over to Lin Xiao.

Afterward, Lin Zhentian turned to look at Lin Fan, Lin Dong, Lin Xia, and Qing Tan. His expression immediately looked much better, and he said with a smile:

"Today, Lin Fan and Lin Dong both performed very outstandingly. Of course, Lin Xia was not bad either."

"I'll have the rewards for this match delivered to you as soon as possible. The clan's Martial Arts Hall will also be open for the three of you to browse as you wish."

"If you need anything, just tell Grandpa. Strive to make another breakthrough before the Qingyang Town Hunting Tournament. When the time comes, let my Lin Clan build up some momentum in Qingyang Town."

"Thank you, Grandpa!"

Hearing this, Lin Fan and the other two thanked Lin Zhentian in unison.

Suddenly, Lin Zhentian seemed to think of something and said to Lin Dong, "Right, Lin Dong, the strength you revealed at the end had clearly already reached Body Tempering Stage Eighth Level."

"Why did you surrender directly when facing your Brother Lin Fan? Since your realms are the same, a fight between you two would have been perfect for tempering each other. Perhaps you might even have taken first place!"

"On the path of martial arts, one must have the heart to forge ahead bravely and compete for the lead. Being too yielding is also somewhat inappropriate."

Lin Dong scratched his head in embarrassment. "Grandpa, you think too highly of me. In front of Brother Lin Fan, I'm afraid I'd also be defeated in one move and wouldn't serve any tempering purpose, so that's why I surrendered directly."

"What?"

Hearing Lin Dong's words, everyone in the courtyard was shaken, and they all looked at Lin Fan in unison.

Lin Zhentian grabbed Lin Fan's arm and said excitedly, "Is what Lin Dong said true?"

Lin Fan rubbed his nose and said, "One move is too exaggerated. Within ten moves, maybe."

Lin Zhentian said in delight, "You're already at Body Tempering Realm Ninth Level now?"

"Body Tempering Stage Ninth Level peak. I was planning to attempt breaking into the Earthly Yuan Realm after the Clan Competition," Lin Fan said with a slight nod, not hiding anything.

"Good, good, good!" Hearing this, Lin Zhentian excitedly said "good" three times in a row, holding Lin Fan's hand and unwilling to let go.

"Fan'er, cultivate properly. Strive to break through to the Earthly Yuan Realm before the Qingyang Town Hunting Tournament begins, and display the might of my Lin Clan at the tournament!"

Lin Fan nodded and said, "I will."

Ding! You touched Lin Zhentian and obtained the Seventh-Rank Martial Skill Five Elements Seal!

At this moment, the system's notification sounded in Lin Fan's mind once again, but he was not in a hurry to check this reward.

"Monster!" Hearing this, Lin Xia could not help rolling her eyes, feeling quite shaken in her heart.

The three Lin Xiao brothers were also extremely shocked.

While Lin Ken and Lin Xiao were shocked, they also felt delighted; Lin Mang's expression, however, was somewhat ugly.

Lin Dong was already strong enough, but unexpectedly, Lin Fan was even more exaggerated. In that case, where would his son Lin Hong ever have a chance to stand out in the Lin Clan?

Lin Zhentian encouraged Lin Dong and Lin Xia with a few more words, and also instructed everyone not to reveal Lin Fan's cultivation for the time being. When the Qingyang Town Hunting Tournament arrived, they would give the other factions a surprise!

"All right, everyone disperse!"

After Lin Zhentian said his final words, this small gathering of the clan's elites came to an end...
