A Young Lady rumored to have no background whatsoever now actually had a Half-Step Dou Zong-level Strong Person at her side, someone even stronger than the people behind those three young masters. That made things rather intriguing.
As Hu Tian's gaze fell on the mysterious Strong Person behind Lin Yutong, the other party sensed it instantly, and a pair of sharp eyes swept straight over.
When he saw the Youth in the audience seats smiling at their side, even nodding to him in greeting as his gaze swept over, the old man's heart immediately grew wary.
"Miss, a Strong Person has appeared..."
Lin Yutong wore a beautiful white dress. Though she possessed a face that could topple kingdoms, she gave off no sense of pressure. Instead, a refined and gentle air surrounded her, making people feel comfortable and unable to help wanting to draw close.
After hearing the old man's words, she could not help looking in Ye Chen's direction as well...
Their eyes met. Ye Chen had originally wanted to do the same as before and nod to her in greeting, but he had not expected that the moment she met his gaze, she would pull her eyes back like a startled deer. Even her face was faintly tinged with a blush.
Ye Chen: "..."
No way. This Young Lady Lin was actually this shy? And she could still compete with her three brothers for the heirship?
No matter how he looked at it, she did not seem like it...
The old man behind Lin Yutong had the same thought as Ye Chen.
Seeing his Young Lady behave like this, he immediately sighed inwardly. With that personality, was it truly right or wrong to let her take part in such a cruel struggle...?
At this moment, the challenge on the stage had already begun, and someone had stepped onto the arena.
"Whoa! It's Fan Qingge, the Fist Emperor! They say he's already won five matches in a row. His iron fists, paired with his deep earth-attributed Dou Qi, are nearly impossible for anyone of the same level to break. In three of his first five matches, his opponents couldn't even break through his defense!"
Seeing the Middle-aged Man who had stepped onto the stage, dressed in short earth-yellow clothing with knotted muscles all over his body, a spectator beside Ye Chen could not help shouting.
Hu Tian's voice also sounded by Ye Chen's ear at this moment. "This man should be an earth-attributed Dou Emperor who mainly cultivates the Physical Body. People like this all possess tremendous strength and unmatched defense. Unless one has special methods, defeating them in an arena battle is very difficult!"
Perhaps the only weakness of this kind of person was that speed was their fatal flaw. In a fight out in the wild, if one could not beat them, one could still run away. But in an arena match, fleeing meant losing outright, so they had a great advantage.
At this moment, in the place where the four heirs of Clear Moon City were seated, the youngest, Lin Yuting, looked at his two elder brothers and Elder Sister with a smug smile, then finally fixed his target on his Eldest Brother, Lin Yuheng. "Eldest Brother, Fan Qingge has already won five in a row. If he wins this battle today as well, then the champion of this Wind Cloud Arena will be his!"
As early as Fan Qingge's first victory in the arena, among the Four Heirs, aside from Lin Yutong, who had acted rather detached, the other three brothers had already begun contacting him. Each of them had offered various conditions to recruit him, and in the end, Fan Qingge had been successfully won over by Lin Yuting.
If it were merely a powerful Dou Emperor expert, while it would indeed increase the strength in Lin Yuting's hands by another degree, it would not have any decisive effect...
The reason he was so pleased was actually because he had achieved an overwhelming victory in this round of competition. His two elder brothers had offered better terms, yet Fan Qingge had chosen him in the end. That meant that in Fan Qingge's heart, he was more optimistic about him. To a certain extent, this also represented how Outsiders viewed the four of them.
Lin Yuheng looked at this fourth brother of his, whose face was full of smug arrogance, and let out a cold snort, his heart filled with disdain.
A piece of Trash with such mediocre aptitude actually dared act insolent in front of him!
Although Lin Yuting had an Old Man who was a disciple of Myriad Sword Pavilion behind him, in Lin Yuheng's eyes, that was not worth mentioning at all!
No matter how strong Myriad Sword Pavilion was, it was in the Central State Northern Region, while this place was the Pill Region. Myriad Sword Pavilion's influence here was almost negligible.
The Black Fire Sect was different. The Black Fire Sect was only a thousand li from Clear Moon City. A Dou Zong expert could arrive in just a few days. If not for certain special reasons, Clear Moon City might already have been in his pocket long ago. Why would he still need to be like this now, competing with a bunch of Trash for some heir's position?
Seeing Lin Yuheng's dismissive expression, Lin Yuting's originally smug face instantly turned ferocious...
What he hated most was this good-for-nothing Eldest Brother of his always wearing that lofty attitude toward all his brothers, as if in his heart, they were not even qualified to be looked at properly.
"Lin Yuheng! You piece of Trash! What are you acting so proud for? Do you really think that with the support of a mere Black Fire Sect, the position of City Lord is certain to be yours? You're dreaming!"
The furious Lin Yuting directly opened his mouth and cursed.
Compared with his two elder brothers, Lin Yuting's shrewdness was clearly still insufficient. He could not even hide his own emotions.
Looking at Lin Yuting, who had openly torn off all pretense and started cursing, the usually cold Lin Yuheng could not help frowning, a trace of anger appearing on his face.
"Lin Yuting! Watch your words. No matter what, I am still your Eldest Brother. Considering you are young and ignorant, I can choose not to fuss over it with you. But if you dare speak so insolently again, don't blame your Eldest Brother for teaching you how to behave!"
"Hahaha, you? You think you're worthy?" Lin Yuting said with a loud laugh.
Although the struggle between the Four Heirs had already reached a fever pitch, with the Clear Moon City Lord around, none of the four dared directly attack one another.
Last time, the three brothers had tried to smear Lin Yutong through public opinion, and that had already enraged the Clear Moon City Lord. So now, although all four wished they could directly kill one another, none dared make a direct move.
Looking at her Eldest Brother and fourth brother facing each other tit for tat, the kindhearted Lin Yutong wanted to speak up and persuade them, but she did not dare open her mouth, because she knew that if she did so now, she might very likely be targeted by both of them at the same time...
Her strength was the weakest among the four, and she could not find a subordinate who could compare with Fan Qingge on the stage, so she could only remain silent.
As for the second brother, Lin Yucheng, he watched coldly as a bystander, letting them fight to the death while he simply sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight...
Lin Yuheng, the eldest, who had finally been enraged by Lin Yuting, had eyes filled with anger. He glanced at Fan Qingge, who was throwing his weight around on the stage, and said without looking back, "Cheng Wu, go up and teach that Fan Qingge a lesson!"
Since he could not directly do anything to Lin Yuting, then naturally he had to vent his anger on the other party's subordinate.
That way, he could make Lin Yuting lose face and also weaken the forces in his hands. Two birds with one stone!
