Chapter 296 The Challenge of the Four Great Families (Part 2)
Lin Zhong had arranged rooms for Lin Shen and his group. They rested in the inn for one night. At 9:00 a.m. the next day, they gathered at the door of the inn.
Lin Shen discovered that Lin Tiannan was not there, and only his housekeeper Lin Zhong was there, so he asked, "Uncle Zhong, where is Alliance Leader Lin?"
"The master has gone to the competition venue first. Let's go now." Lin Zhong replied.
So Lin Zhong led Lin Shen and his group. They left Jiangning from the west gate and there was a lake about four miles away.
There was a wooden platform on the lake with a huge red carpet in the middle. Lin Tiannan, Dugu Jiansheng, Jiu Jianxian, Ouyang Ying, Huangfu Yiming, Xiahou Zhang, and Shangguan Xin were already there.
Lin Tiannan's seat faced the lakeshore, with Ouyang Ying and the other three sitting to his left. To his right sat the Lin family disciples, led by Tang Zhiyuan. There were a few other chairs, but no one was seated yet.
There were many people from other sects on the lakeshore, ready to watch the martial arts competition.
Lin Zhong led Lin Shen and his group onto the platform. Lin Shen took the lead and saluted Lin Tiannan, "Junior Anos, greets Alliance Leader Lin, greets Sect Leader Dugu, and greets Senior Drunken Sword Immortal."
Upon hearing the word "Anos", Ouyang Ying and Xiahou Zhang immediately became alert. Xiahou Zhang stood up and pointed at Lin Shen and said, "You...you are Anos!?" His tone sounded very flustered.
Lin Shen looked at Xiahou Zhang and said, "No one in this world should dare to impersonate me."
Lin Tiannan said, "He is Anos, Ruer's lover."
After hearing that Anos had really arrived, Xiahou Zhang's morale immediately plummeted. Lin Tiannan pointed to the empty chair on the right and said, "My friends, you guys can go sit over there."
Lin Shen said, "Thank you, Alliance Leader Lin." After that, Lin Shen took Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru and others to sit on the right.
Sword Saint Dugu stood up at this time and said, "Today is the day when the four great families of Ouyang, Huangfu, Xiahou, and Shangguan challenge the Lin Family Fort.
The rules of the competition are very simple. Each side will send one person to compete on the red carpet. Anyone who leaves the red carpet or admits defeat will be deemed the loser. Once all the candidates on one side are defeated, they will be considered the loser.
Furthermore, in this competition, no poison or hidden weapons are allowed, or you will be disqualified. Without further ado, let's begin!"
A man in yellow clothes came up from the four major families first. Lin Shen and his companions knew from his clothes that he was from the Shangguan family.
The man held two short swords and said, "I am Zhang Yi, a disciple of the Shangguan family. I have come to seek your guidance!"
Lin Yueru stood up with a whip and a sword in hand and said, "Lin Family Fort, Lin Yueru, I want to learn from you!"
Zhang Yi rushed forward with a dagger in his hand. Lin Yueru did not draw her sword, but picked up a whip and whipped him.
There was a sound of "Snap!", and the whip hit Zhang Yi's left wrist, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.
Lin Yueru whipped Zhang Yi with a thrashing sound. In just a few minutes, Zhang Yi's skin was torn and his body was covered with more than a dozen whip marks.
On his face, neck, arms, and thighs, Zhang Yi was whipped. As he was whipping, he shouted, "Stop whipping, stop whipping, I surrender, I surrender!"
Lin Yueru stopped at this time and shouted, "Get out of here!" Zhang Yi returned to the four major families covered in dust and dirt, and the expression on Shangguan Xin's face was beyond words.
Another man in purple came up from one of the four great families and bowed to Lin Yueru, saying, "Ouyang Family~Lin Fei!"
Lin Yueru said, "Come on!"
Lin Fei drew his sword and rushed towards Lin Yueru. Lin Yueru also put away her whip and fought back with her sword in hand.
However, Lin Fei's physical skills were no match for Lin Yueru. He slowed down after ten rounds and was kicked to the ground by Lin Yueru.
After Lin Fei stood up, he wanted to fight again, but Ouyang Ying shouted, "Back off!" Lin Fei glanced at Ouyang Ying and went down directly.
Lin Fei said, "Master, why do you want me to step down?" From his tone, it can be heard that Lin Fei was still a little unconvinced.
Ouyang Ying said, "If you lose, you lose. Compared to losing for a while, throwing a tantrum and playing dirty is more embarrassing for the Ouyang family!"
Lin Fei lowered his head, his tone not as intense as before, and said, "Yes, Patriarch!" After that, Lin Fei wisely stepped aside.
Lin Yueru has won two games in a row. Although Lin Tiannan showed no expression, he was very happy in his heart.
Dugu Jiansheng was also very satisfied. The Drunken Swordsman didn't care. After all, he came here to act as a notary and ensure that no one broke the rules of the competition or caused trouble. He opened the wine gourd and took another sip of wine.
Lin Yueru was about to go back at this time. Everyone was stunned. Sect Leader Dugu asked, "Niece Lin, why did you go downstairs?"
Lin Yueru looked at Dugu Jiansheng and said, "Nothing, I just don't want me to be the only one to take the lead, so I want to give others a chance to show their talents."
Jiang Wan'er stood up at this time and high-fived Lin Yueru. Lin Yueru said, "Wan'er, I'm counting on you."
Jiang Wan'er, holding the Frost Sword, said, "Don't worry." Jiang Wan'er walked onto the red carpet and said, "Which hero would like to come up and compete?"
At this time, a man in red came up with a spear in his hand and said, "Xiahou Family~Zhou Ke!"
Jiang Wan'er didn't say anything, but just made a gesture, meaning for him to attack.
Zhou Ke stabbed at her with a spear in hand. Jiang Wan'er instinctively dodged to the side, and the spear missed.
After Zhou Ke retracted his spear, he stabbed out again. Jiang Wan'er knocked the spear away with the Ningshuang Sword. Before Zhou Ke could retract his spear, the tip of Jiang Wan'er's sword was already against Zhou Ke's neck.
Zhou Ke said, "I... never thought I would lose to a woman!"
Jiang Wan'er took the Frost Sword away from Zhou Ke's neck and said, "You lose, you lose. Go down. I don't want to hurt you."
Zhou Ke said, "I won't lose, I won't lose~~!" Zhou Ke swung his spear and punched Jiang Wan'er with his right fist.
After Jiang Wan'er dodged, Lin Shen teleported to the stage and knocked her unconscious with one punch.
Lin Shen looked at Zhou Ke who was lying on the stage, and then looked at Xia Hou Zhang with a very cold look, as if he could skin Xia Hou Zhang alive.
Hou Zhang hurriedly apologized to Lin Shen and Jiang Wan'er, "It's my fault for not disciplining me properly. I apologize to both of you. I also ask Brother Anos and Miss Jiang to be tolerant if possible."
Lin Shen kicked Zhou Ke in front of Xia Houzhang and said, "Next time, I won't be so easy to talk to!"
Lin Shen looked at Jiang Wan'er and asked, "Wan'er, are you okay?"
Jiang Wan'er shook her head and said jokingly, "I'm fine. Your hands are too fast. That person can't hurt me at all."
Lin Shen put his hand on her shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, I feel bad that you're injured. Just do your best." After that, Lin Shen returned to his seat.
After the commotion just now, the experts from the four great families began to murmur.
If they fight seriously, Lin Shen won't say anything; but if they use tricks, Lin Shen can beat them so badly that even their own mothers won't recognize them.
At this time, a man in white came up from the four great families and said, "Sun Yiping of the Huangfu family, I'm here to ask for your advice!"
Jiang Wan'er held the Frost Sword and said, "Come on!"
Sun Yiping rushed towards Jiang Wan'er with a long sword in hand. Jiang Wan'er also fought back with the Frost Sword. After five or six rounds, Sun Yiping felt that he could not hold on any longer and said, "Stop fighting, stop fighting. I surrender!"
Jiang Wan'er felt that the other party was a bit too naive and said, "Are you giving up already?!"
"Give up, give up. I'm no match for you." After saying that, Sun Yiping turned around and ran away, leaving Jiang Wan'er stunned.
The four major families understood this very well, because if they lost and got angry, Lin Shen would not agree.
Another man from the Shangguan family came up and said, "Shangguan family Wu Ming, please give me some advice!"
Jiang Wan'er waved the Frost Sword twice and said, "Come on."
Wu Ming rushed towards Jiang Wan'er with two daggers in his hands. Jiang Wan'er swung a sword, and Wu Ming instinctively retracted his attack and blocked it with his daggers. Then he heard two "cracks!" and the daggers in Wu Ming's hands immediately broke into two pieces.
Wu Ming was stunned when he saw the broken sword in his hand. He asked, "How...how could this happen!?"
Jiang Wan'er asked, "Are you still fighting?"
Wu Ming thought of the scene where Lin Shen knocked Zhou Ke unconscious just now, and said, "No, no." After that, Wu Ming went downstairs.
At this time, people from the four major families began to worry, because the four major families had already lost five battles, while the Lin Family Castle had not lost a single game.
Even the little-known Jiang Wan'er in front of them could win three games in a row. The five people just sent out were all top-notch players from aristocratic families. Whether it was Lin Yueru or Jiang Wan'er, they won effortlessly.
Many of the disciples of the four great families had already given up, when a loud shout came, "I'm here to learn from you!"
