- Chapter 49 - Top Ten, Matchmaker Arrives
Almost everyone present doubted Lin Feng could defeat Gao Shan.
In the next moment, Gao Shan was already in front of Lin Feng.
Lin Feng threw another punch!
But Gao Shan’s lips curled into a cold smile.
His figure blurred and vanished from Lin Feng’s sight.
When he reappeared, he was already behind Lin Feng.
This move made the onlookers’ eyes light up!
Gao Shan then lifted his leg, sweeping it towards Lin Feng like a whip!
“Crack!”
The speed was so fast it created a sonic boom!
The power and speed of this kick were evident!
Yet, in Lin Feng’s eyes, Gao Shan’s speed was still too slow.
He could dodge the attack anytime he wanted!
But to avoid revealing too much of his strength, he pretended to be a step slower.
He raised his right hand to block the kick.
With a dull thud, Lin Feng was struck by a tremendous force, flying several meters away.
He staggered, almost falling to the ground.
To make it more convincing, he even used his Cultivation Manual to force out some blood.
“Whew!”
“What a powerful kick! Lin Feng really couldn’t withstand it!”
“Just one kick and he’s injured!”
The crowd below buzzed with discussion.
Chen Fei and the others felt their hearts tighten again.
“If you don’t concede, the next strike won’t be so easy to block!
You might even die!”
Gao Shan warned Lin Feng, maintaining a cold and aloof demeanor.
This drew the attention of many female disciples!
Lin Feng assumed a defensive stance, remaining silent.
“Fine! Since you’re so stubborn, let me send you down!”
Gao Shan, seeing his posturing fail, vanished again.
He darted around the arena at incredible speed, leaving afterimages in his wake!
“Major Mastery of the Serpent Step!”
“Gao Shan is really strong!”
“He’s defeated Tendon Changing Realm disciples with this Major Mastery Serpent Step before.
Of course he’s formidable!”
“For Lin Feng, this is a crushing defeat!”
The audience buzzed with admiration for Gao Shan.
Hearing the praise, Gao Shan let out an excited roar.
“Get down!”
Then, dozens of leg shadows attacked from all directions. To the crowd, Lin Feng seemed only able to defend passively.
He couldn’t fight back at all.
“He’s lost! At this speed, Lin Feng can’t keep up! No matter how strong he is, if he can’t hit the opponent, it’s useless!”
Zhao Chengze said to Yu Qingqing beside him.
Yu Qingqing nodded in agreement.
The next moment, to everyone’s surprise, Lin Feng opened up his chest, creating an opening. Gao Shan kicked, but Lin Feng caught his foot!
Then, like a street brawler, Lin Feng endured Gao Shan’s blows, while punching back at him.
Gao Shan’s foot was firmly caught, and he found he couldn’t break free no matter what.
He could only trade blows with Lin Feng.
At this moment, Gao Shan realized that his punches were having no effect on Lin Feng at all!
“Vajra Art, you’ve cultivated Iron Shirt!”
Gao Shan was utterly shocked!
But Lin Feng paid him no mind. After a few punches, Gao Shan’s eyes bulged, and he vomited up his breakfast.
Ultimately, he couldn’t withstand it and passed out, foaming at the mouth.
“Lin… Lin Feng wins!”
The squad leader announced Lin Feng’s victory, his lips twitching at the sight. He had never seen anyone win a match like this before!
The two seemed like they hadn’t learned any martial arts, simply swinging their fists to decide the outcome.
On the platform, Huang Qiong, Wu Peng, and Bai Sheng also twitched their lips. Yet, they had to admit Lin Feng had talent and insight.
In a short time, he had cultivated Iron Shirt to a considerable level!
Wu Peng’s face darkened further. Li Qing’s defeat was one thing, but now even Gao Shan had lost!
This match meant their team’s resources would be significantly reduced compared to last time!
Bai Sheng started to feel a bit regretful. For a bit of idle pay, he had let a talent like Lin Feng slip through his fingers!
If Lin Feng were under his command, he would certainly fare better than under Ding Yun.
Perhaps he could even aim for the top five!
Heartache!
Every additional spot in the top five meant a large amount of resources!
“But there’s still a chance. I’ll recruit him later! Ding Yun is so indifferent, not caring about anything. He won’t say much!”
Bai Sheng thought to himself.
The audience was already stunned.
After Lin Feng stepped down, Chen Fei, You Lin, and Mu Yu looked at him as if they were seeing him for the first time, sizing him up and down, making Lin Feng feel uneasy.
Soon, it was time for another draw.
Lin Feng drew a disciple from the Tendon Changing Realm and ultimately pretended to be defeated!
After all, entering the top ten meant he already had two Bone Refining Pills in hand.
Pretending further would be treating everyone like fools!
However, showing a bit of strength this time had its benefits, making it seem more natural if he ever revealed more of his abilities in the future.
After all, he could now defeat those in the Late Stage of Bone Forging with his cunning, defense, and incredible strength.
In the subsequent matches, Zhao Chengze and Li Wuyi faced off.
But Zhao Chengze was slightly better than Li Wuyi and won.
This left Li Wuyi furious!
Another prodigy from the four major families, Wu Qingtong, tied with Yu Qingqing.
Ultimately, Zhao Chengze took first place, Li Wuyi second.
Yu Qingqing and Wu Qingtong tied for third.
Lin Feng ended up in the last spot of the top ten.
To the onlookers, Lin Feng seemed to have luck on his side. Without good fortune, he wouldn’t have made it into the top ten!
But in reality, the three platoon commanders and young elites like Zhao Chengze knew Lin Feng was anything but ordinary!
By afternoon,
At Lin Feng’s doorstep,
A matchmaker confirmed the address and rushed to Lin Feng’s house, as if afraid someone else would beat her to it.
“Is this Lord Lin’s residence?”
The matchmaker knocked on the door.
At this moment, Lin Man opened the door, holding a candied hawthorn skewer, licking it bite by bite.
“Who are you looking for?”
Lin Man asked.
“Oh my, what a lovely young lady! Is this Lin Feng, Lord Lin’s home?”
The matchmaker praised Lin Man and continued to inquire.
“Yes, Lin Feng is my elder brother. Are you looking for him? He’s not home.”
Lin Man bit into a candied hawthorn, warily eyeing the matchmaker with a mole on her face.
“Oh, I’m not here for Lord Lin, but for Elderly Madam Lin!”
The matchmaker replied.
At this moment, Mother Lin emerged from the house.
“Oh, you must be Elderly Madam Lin! I’m here on behalf of the Qian Family from the Inner City to propose marriage for your Lin-Ge’er.
The Qian Family is a wealthy household in the Inner City.
Their second daughter is exceptionally beautiful.
…”
The matchmaker went on and on, praising the Qian Family’s second daughter as unparalleled in beauty.
Only then did Mother Lin realize what was happening.
She never expected a prominent family to come knocking at their door.
What was going on?
But undoubtedly, it was a joyous occasion. Lin Feng had been abandoned by Zhu Cui’er, and she had always been concerned about finding a wife for him!
What she didn’t expect was that after welcoming this matchmaker into their home, many more matchmakers followed.
The Lin Family suddenly seemed like a matchmaker wholesale factory.
