Goal: Strongest Lifeform on Land, Sea, and Sky (Please Follow)

After Bei Bei finished his battle, Zhang Lexuan brought Lin Yan over to meet up with him.

Seeing Lin Yan, Bei Bei happily hugged him, patted his back, then stepped back and draped an arm around his shoulders. "Cousin, you finally made it."

Lin Yan smiled. "Cousin, I watched your match carefully just now. In one year, your strength has improved greatly."

Bei Bei glanced at Lin Yan and smiled. "No matter how much I've improved, could I have improved more than you?"

"Tell me, what's your cultivation now?"

Before Lin Yan could answer, Zhang Lexuan revealed the truth directly. "Bei Bei, you should learn from Lin Yan in this regard. He's already a Soul Elder who has obtained his third Spirit Ring."

Hearing this, Bei Bei froze. His deep blue eyes abruptly turned toward Lin Yan. "Cousin, is what my sister said true? You're already a Soul Elder?"

"Mm." Lin Yan nodded with a smile. "I only obtained my third Spirit Ring shortly before coming to Shrek City."

Bei Bei sighed emotionally. "You're getting more and more monstrous. You became a Soul Elder at ten."

As he spoke, Bei Bei looked at Zhang Lexuan and asked, "Sister, weren't you nearly eleven when you became a Soul Elder?"

"Mm."

Zhang Lexuan nodded with a smile.

Bei Bei suddenly turned to Lin Yan and suggested, "Cousin, it's still early. How about you have a battle here too? Let Sister and me see what you're really capable of."

"Uh..."

A hesitant expression appeared on Lin Yan's face.

Zhang Lexuan smiled. "Little Brother Lin Yan, your cousin is right. We've never truly seen your strength before."

"Alright!"

Since Zhang Lexuan had spoken, Lin Yan gladly agreed.

Then, Bei Bei expertly led Lin Yan through the registration process.

When fighting in the Soul Fighting Arena, Soul Masters could choose a battle title for themselves. For example, Bei Bei's was Thunderclap Dragon.

When the staff member of the Soul Fighting Arena asked Lin Yan what title he wanted, Lin Yan thought for a moment before writing several striking black words on the form: Strongest Lifeform on Land, Sea, and Sky.

"Strongest Lifeform on Land, Sea, and Sky?"

"What kind of strange title is that?"

Bei Bei's blue eyes swept over Lin Yan as he asked curiously.

Lin Yan smiled and explained, "Cousin, this is my goal of becoming strong. The ocean, the land, and the sky—I want to become the strongest among all three!"

Bei Bei blanked out for a moment, clearly stunned by Lin Yan's bold declaration.

Zhang Lexuan also froze briefly as she looked at the confidently smiling Lin Yan. Then she smiled and said, "Little Brother Lin Yan, your goal certainly is lofty."

"Hehe!"

Lin Yan chuckled softly.

After registering, since Lin Yan's cultivation was that of a Soul Elder, his opponent could only be another Soul Elder. Thus, he was assigned to Earth-Rank Soul Fighting Hall Number Three.

There were ten Earth-Rank Soul Fighting Halls in total.

Numbers One through Five were Soul Elder Divisions, while Numbers Six through Ten were Great Soul Master Divisions.

As for the higher-ranking Heaven-Rank Soul Fighting Hall, one needed at least the cultivation of a Soul Ancestor to enter. Spectators also had to pay an additional fee to enter the Heaven-Rank Soul Fighting Hall.

The group of three arrived at Earth-Rank Soul Fighting Hall Number Three.

The eighth Soul Fight of the day was currently underway there.

Before long, Lin Yan's name appeared on the roster screen in Soul Fighting Hall Number Three.

Eleventh Match: Ji Xingming, Sweeping Through a Thousand Armies VS Lin Yan, Strongest Lifeform on Land, Sea, and Sky.

When the matchup list for the eleventh battle appeared on the soul tool screen in Soul Fighting Hall Number Three, Lin Yan, with his keen senses, immediately noticed that the discussions among the surrounding audience had suddenly increased. Many people even stopped watching the match in progress and began pointing at the names on the soul tool screen.

"Quick, look! Ji Xingming is here again!"

"We're so lucky! We actually get to see Ji Xingming compete today! That one silver soul coin was well spent!"

"If I remember correctly, Ji Xingming has already won nineteen straight matches in the Soul Elder Division, right? I think he's about to get his twentieth consecutive win today!"

"What the hell is this Strongest Lifeform on Land, Sea, and Sky? What kind of contestant is that? That bizarre nickname is way too arrogant. Calling himself the strongest? I just hope Ji Xingming doesn't beat the shit out of him later!"

"..."

It was not only the audience in Earth-Rank Soul Fighting Hall Number Three who were discussing it. Less than thirty seconds after Ji Xingming's name appeared on the soul tool screen, a large number of spectators suddenly poured through the entrance of Hall Number Three.

Sitting in the audience, Lin Yan wore a strange expression as he asked, "Cousin, is this Ji Xingming really that famous?"

Bei Bei hurriedly nodded. "He's a third-year student in the outer court of Shrek Academy, a battle maniac. He's a Soul Elder, and his martial soul is the Azure Cloud Earth-Splitting Halberd, a top-tier assault-type weapon martial soul. He has already achieved nineteen consecutive victories in the Soul Elder Division. He's a star contestant there, and he's very popular."

Lin Yan said helplessly, "So I ran into a tough opponent in my very first match?"

"Yes."

Bei Bei nodded with a smile. "What do you think? Are you confident?"

Lin Yan's expression changed as he declared confidently, "Against Soul Elders and above, I'll trade one for one. Among Soul Elders, I'm invincible!"

"Invincible?"

Bei Bei looked at Lin Yan in surprise. "Cousin, according to what you said earlier, you only just obtained your third Spirit Ring, yet you dare claim to be invincible? Shrek's students are no simple characters!"

Lin Yan said confidently, "Cousin, Sister Lexuan, just watch carefully. Watch how I slap the faces of these blind fools!"

Several minutes passed, and the countless conversations reaching his ears were all in support of Ji Xingming. They had completely treated Lin Yan as a stepping stone for Ji Xingming's twentieth consecutive victory.

Lin Yan would rather fight for his pride than let them have their way.

When the tenth battle began, Lin Yan entered the waiting area through his identity badge to prepare.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the eleventh match of the day in Soul Fighting Hall Number Three finally began.

When the referee announced the start, Lin Yan walked onto the Soul Fighting Platform through the contestants' passage.

At the same time, he finally saw Ji Xingming's true appearance.

He stood nearly 1.8 meters tall, with healthy bronze skin, thick eyebrows, large eyes, and arms proportionally longer than those of ordinary people. His facial expression was somewhat stern, and at first glance, he truly carried a certain intimidating presence.

As the two combatants took the stage, cheers for Ji Xingming suddenly erupted from the audience.

Most of the gazes were focused on Ji Xingming.

At first, almost no one paid attention to Lin Yan. He seemed like a ball of air, reduced to nothing more than a supporting role.

Then, someone suddenly cried out, "So handsome!" Only then did more and more gazes in the audience begin to turn toward Lin Yan.

In terms of appearance, Lin Yan definitely crushed Ji Xingming.

Even the combined looks of ten Ji Xingmings could not compare to one Lin Yan.

He was 1.65 meters tall, with a slender, well-proportioned figure, refined features, and a faint trace of youthful innocence between his brows—the exact sort of thing some strange older sisters adored.

Listening to the growing cheers for Lin Yan from the audience, Bei Bei could not help but laugh. "Sister, look! Cousin hasn't even fought yet, and he's already gaining fans."

Zhang Lexuan nodded and chuckled. "This kid really is ridiculous. He's so good-looking, and his talent is so monstrous too. Who knows how many young girls will be utterly captivated by him in the future!"
