Chapter 296 Assassination
The temperature on the arena rose significantly in an instant.
Leng Yun's matches are torture for the audience, because no matter the weather, as long as Leng Yun's flames appear, all the audience will be drenched in sweat.
However, no one paid any attention to this, staring in disbelief at the raging flames on the arena.
Immediately afterwards, a figure flew out of the flames, like a rag doll, streaking through the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
It was Zhou Si.
At this moment, Zhou Si's white robe was charred black, and he looked extremely disheveled. He had already fainted on the ground.
Leng Yun did not kill Zhou Si; he glanced sideways at Chen Bing in the audience.
Cheng Bing's face was filled with an indescribable expression. She felt sad seeing Zhou Si's appearance, but on the other hand, she was also gratified that Leng Yun had won.
Just as the surrounding audience was recovering from their astonishment, a burst of applause and cheers suddenly erupted.
These people originally thought Leng Yun was a good-for-nothing, but after today's battle, in their hearts, Leng Yun has become a top contender for the championship.
"Young Master Fire! Young Master Fire!"
Zheng Guo took the lead in shouting, and then the entire arena resounded with shouts like waves, rising and falling, lasting for a long time.
Murong Qin stood quietly in the contestants' rest area, looking at Leng Yun on the arena.
Even she couldn't have imagined that Leng Yun's progress would be so rapid.
Back when Murong Qin first met Leng Yun, Leng Yun couldn't even handle two demonic beasts.
But now, without even using any 'secret techniques', they have already easily defeated Zhou Si, who is at the 9th level of the Spirit Martial Realm.
Two staff members carried Zhou Si away.
Now, Zhou Si's team has one person left, who is also a master from the Fist God Academy.
Leng Yun stood on the arena, quietly watching his last opponent in the rest area.
The latter was already so frightened that his legs went weak. He had come with Zhou Si and Mi Tian to take advantage of their presence, but he never expected that one of them would be dead and the other injured.
“I—I surrender!” he said in a trembling voice.
Everyone was speechless, not expecting this outcome.
Without a doubt, the Lengyun team became the first team to advance to the third round.
Today's match has ended. The second match will be tomorrow, between Fang Laiguo and Mofang Chang.
Leng Yun slowly walked off the arena, glancing at the three people standing in the rest area next to him. The three people dressed in black were the Southern Border Wizards.
Although they were separated by the outer cover, Ling Di and the other two black men's astonishment was clearly visible.
"How—how is this possible? Someone who was poisoned by the Destruction Serpent can actually recover!" Ling Di stared at Leng Yun in disbelief.
Leng Yun heard Ling Di's voice, glanced at the latter sideways, and then passed by them without stopping.
But that brief glance sent chills down Ling Di's spine. The look in that eyes was filled with murderous intent, making Ling Di feel the breath of death.
……
As dusk settled, the square, which had been bustling all day, fell silent, deserted.
Leng Yun, Murong Qin, and the others sat inside the house.
"That's great, Junior Brother Leng Yun. I thought something had happened to you," Zhang Yu said.
Leng Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone, I, Leng Yun, am back."
“I think it’s not just that it’s back, it’s become even stronger,” Chen Bing said with a smile.
These words hit the nail on the head. In fact, everyone had sensed the difference in Leng Yun; he seemed to have become even stronger. However, this strength was not physical, but rather a spiritual one.
Otherwise, Leng Yun wouldn't have been able to defeat Zhou Si so easily.
Leng Yun didn't speak, but looked out the window. The moon had already risen into the sky.
"Everyone, you can go back first. I'm going out for a bit; I have some things to take care of." Leng Yun said, then stood up and walked towards the door.
The crowd was somewhat surprised and looked at each other, wondering what Leng Yun was up to so late at night.
Only Murong Qin truly understood Leng Yun. She watched Leng Yun's figure quietly without saying a word.
Leng Yun is neither a kind person nor a forgetful one. If someone offends him, he will definitely retaliate. This time, he is going to take revenge on the three wizards in the Southern Frontier.
Although the rules during the boxing tournament prohibit revenge for personal grudges.
However, Leng Yun was not a rule-abiding person; his core belief was strength.
Before long, Leng Yun arrived at the entrance of the courtyard where the Southern Frontier team was resting.
He quietly observed the courtyard for a while, and from a distance, he could sense waves of yin energy emanating from it.
Southern Xinjiang witchcraft is indeed quite different from the fist energy of the Central Plains.
Then, Leng Yun took out the 'face mask' artifact, covered his face with it, and in the next instant, Leng Yun completely changed his appearance, becoming a passerby whom no one recognized.
Then, Leng Yun strode into the courtyard.
"Halt! Who goes there!" a guard asked rudely.
Leng Yun didn't answer, but a burst of yellow fist energy shot out, instantly stunning the opponent...
……
When Leng Yun returned to his room, the moon was already high in the sky. Having just experienced a massacre, Leng Yun appeared somewhat exhausted.
Murong Qin waited for Leng Yun in his room. Seeing Leng Yun return, she felt a little relieved.
"Are they all dead?" Murong Qin asked calmly.
Leng Yun nodded: "I'm sorry to have worried you."
Murong Qin blushed slightly: "Pah, who wants to worry about you? I just want to see my little rabbit."
Leng Yun smiled and took out the Silver Moon Crane and the Blazing Sun Rabbit from his system space.
Afterwards, the two of them went inside the house and chuckled as they teased the two ancient mythical beasts.
It wasn't until the next morning that everyone discovered that the members of the Southern Frontier team were all dead.
Each of the three men in black had a deep hole pierced by an arrow, but the murder weapon could not be found at the scene.
The charred marks at the scene inevitably bring to mind the flames of Leng Yun.
But the guards insisted that the person who came to kill was not Leng Yun at all.
In the end, the matter was left unresolved.
However, the royal family was furious because someone dared to kill someone during their boxing tournament.
This has never happened before; it's a complete disregard for the royal family.
Emperor Nangong Batian has ordered a thorough investigation into the murderer.
However, even a god would find it difficult to spot the flaws in Leng Yun's disguise through her 'face mask'.
Although the murderer has not yet been found, the competition will still proceed as scheduled.
Today, Gao Cheng is playing against three top players from the Fanglai Kingdom in the Rubik's Cube arena.
This match was something everyone had been looking forward to for a long time. In Yunyang, Rubik's Cube was very famous, and everyone thought that Rubik's Cube would win this match without a doubt. Even Leng Yun thought that Rubik's Cube would win.
Humans have an inexplicable sense of collective honor. No matter how good the people from Fanglai are, they are still foreigners. Therefore, many viewers hope that Rubik's Cube will win and send the foreign teams back home.
During the match, even the emperor came to the scene.
