Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Why was this guy here?
The moment their eyes met, Ye Lingtian nodded at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen knew very well that if anything happened to him in the arena, Ye Lingtian would risk exposure to try and save him.
At this moment, Ying Qing walked over and waved something in his hand at him.
“If anything happens, don’t worry, Mr. Ye. I won’t let them hurt you.”
‘Do none of these guys believe in me?’
Ye Chen shook his head helplessly.
At this moment, the crowd suddenly burst into an uproar.
Ye Chen looked in the direction of the commotion and saw three old men in traditional tunics walking toward the martial arts arena.
The martial aura surrounding those three old men was extremely strong, and the one in the middle was especially strong. It seemed that this old man was on the verge of reaching the qi transformation realm!
The other party must have been a grandmaster for decades, and Ye Chen could sense danger from him.
This was the strongest person Ye Chen had met since he left that place!
The old man was naturally Yuan Jingfu!
Ye Chen’s current cultivation level had reached the eighth level of the soul opening realm himself, so fighting such a powerful opponent would not be easy.
The three elders glanced at Ye Chen with calm expressions. When they were about to approach the martial arts arena, they gathered their qi and leapt onto the three-meter-high martial arts platform!
Just this move alone caused countless martial artists to clap and cheer.
Yuan Jingfu’s wrinkled face was filled with a trace of coldness. He raised his right hand high and suddenly clenched it shut.
The audience instantly fell silent!
“As one of the referees of the martial arts arena, I, Yuan Jingfu, will definitely strive for fairness and maintain order. If anyone breaks the rules of the martial arts arena, regardless of their identity, they will be killed!”
The other two old men also said something similar shortly.
Jin Lcngyan noticed Ye Chen’s frown and explained, “The three people above are the three referees for your duel this time. They are Yuan Jingfu, Wang Zhixin, and Wu Xiangming. It is worth mentioning that all three of them are within the top 500 of Huaxia’s grandmaster rankings.”
“Elder Yuan Jingfu is the most terrifying. He once entered the top 4.00 of the Grandmaster ranking. As for his current ranking, no one knows. Some people say that he’s become stronger, while others think that his strength has declined due to injury. However, he is also the vice president of Jiangnan Province’s Martial Arts Association, which is an extremely powerful faction. If you have a chance later, try to please this person, or at least be polite. This person’s opinions and stances on things are held in high regard.”
“Who does he think he is? Why should I please him?” Ye Chen snorted coldly.”
When Jin Lengyan heard this, she was so frightened that she almost covered Ye Chen’s mouth.
If Yuan Jingfu heard this, Ye Chen would be in deep trouble!
“Also, you should pay attention to Wu Xiangming. The Wu family is a martial arts family in Jiangnan Province that has a strong foundation. It would be good to forge a good relationship with this person. If this person wants to protect you, Chen Baoguo won’t dare to touch you.”
Jin Lengyan wanted to say more, but the bell atop the martial arts arena suddenly rang!
“Ye Chen, Chen Baoguo, please come up to the platform,” Yuan Jingfu’s authoritative voice rang out.
Moments later, Chen Baoguo took a step forward and arrived on the platform. The audience immediately cheered!
“Grandmaster Chen is mighty!”
“Grandmaster Chen, kill that trash from the Ye Family!”
Soon after, Ye Chen arrived as well.
In an instant, boos were heard everywhere. Some people even began to mock Ye Chen mercilessly.
“How can this piece of trash be worthy of standing on the same stage as Grandmaster Chen? Truly shameless!”
“I guess he wants to be famous before he dies. In a sense, it’s worth it!”
“Haha, this is the first time I’ve seen such a method of becoming famous.”
Amidst the crowd’s cursing, Wu Xiangming shot an icy cold glance at them. “Noisy!”
“If anyone spews more nonsense, I will have that person killed immediately!”
The crowd immediately fell silent.
Wu Xiangming took out two contracts for Ye Chen and Chen Baoguo to sign.
“In the martial arts arena, life and death are unpredictable. Everything ends at the point of death, including hatred,” Wu Xiangming said.
“Thank you, Grandmaster Wu.”
Chen Baoguo cupped his hands at Wu Xiangming with a flattering smile.
Wu Xiangming ignored him. He glanced at the indifferent Ye Chen, sighed, and then returned to the side of the platform.
Then, the bell rang!
The duel had officially begun!
Chen Baoguo looked at Ye Chen with bloodshot eyes furiously.
“How did my son and grandson offend you?”
Ye Chen raised his head and glanced at Chen Baoguo indifferently.
“They asked for it. This is honestly really convenient. Today, I’ll kill you as well, and the Chen family of River City will become history.”
Upon hearing this, not only did Chen Baoguo laugh, but everyone below the platform also laughed!
The outcome of this duel was clear as day, yet this kid was actually bragging that he wanted to kill Chen Baoguo?
Was he f*cking dreaming?
Even Jin Lengyan could not help but shake her head.
Chen Baoguo’s smile froze and he released his cold killing intent.
“That depends on whether you have the ability to do so. Come! Show me what kind of dog Ye Tianzheng’s son is!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Baoguo moved.
The cold gleam in his eyes intensified as he unleashed his aura and power!
“It’s been ten years since I last saw him, but Grandmaster Chen has grown so much stronger! This will be over instantly!”
Below the stage, someone sighed.
Ye Chen frowned slightly when he sensed the aura. Chen Baoguo was stronger than he had expected.
“Die!”
A punch that stirred up a gale was hurled at him, but Ye Chen simply dodged it. However, he chose not to counterattack.
“You piece of trash! Stop dodging and fight like a man!”
Chen Baoguo was furious!
Ye Chen’s movement technique was too strange. He could not even touch this guy’s clothes!
Damn it!
