Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 395 Please enlighten me, Senior Brother Zhang
At this moment, many innate martial artists in the Yan Dynasty who were under twenty years old and had never entered the Martial Dao Mountain had complicated expressions and a look of deliberation in their eyes.

Lin Chen of the Canglan Sect has begun a challenge to achieve a 100,000-game winning streak.

If they lose, both Canglan Sect and Lin Chen will be ridiculed.

If they can defeat Lin Chen, they can also take this opportunity to become famous throughout the entire Wudao Mountain.

However, this is a double-edged sword. Under the spotlight, if they fail in their challenge, they will also be ridiculed for overestimating their abilities and lacking self-awareness.

If they hadn't witnessed Lin Chen's strength, they wouldn't have hesitated. But Zhao Feng's defeat at Guixu Sword Tomb made them start to consider whether they could defeat Lin Chen if they were on the field.

A few breaths later, most of the people in the world had a helpless look on their faces. They had to admit that Lin Chen was stronger than them.

The first thing to consider is whether or not Zhao Feng can be defeated.

Whether or not Zhao Feng can be defeated quickly is the question to be considered after the prerequisites are met.

If he can quickly defeat Zhao Feng, then whether he can become Lin Chen's opponent is the third question that needs to be considered.

After all, it was obvious to everyone that Lin Chen hadn't used his full strength.

Lin Chen didn't use any of the Canglan Sect's signature martial arts techniques.

This is the information gap between the various sects. They don't know that Lin Chen has only been in the Canglan Sect for a short time and has not learned any other techniques of the Canglan Sect besides the Canglan Finger.

……

In the courtyard of a disciple of a certain sect.

A young man had a determined look in his eyes; he was confident that he could defeat Zhao Feng and fight Lin Chen.

"Junior Brother Chu, there's no need for that."

However, just as the young man was about to act, another person stopped him.

"Senior Brother Ge, what does this mean?"

"Junior Brother Chu, let me ask you this: can you defeat the top few in Martial Dao Mountain and finally reach the top?"

Faced with his senior brother's question, Chu Lei shook his head without much hesitation. He knew that he was no match for the top three ranked opponents of Martial Dao Mountain. Since he had not made it into the top three, other rankings were meaningless to him, which was why he had never climbed Martial Dao Mountain.

"Even if you defeat Lin Chen, what will you do next? Will you just give up on Martial Dao Mountain, or will you take over Lin Chen's goal and challenge him to reach the top? If you give up after defeating Lin Chen, then what is the point of defeating him?"

Upon hearing his senior brother's words, Chu Lei suddenly realized what he meant.

He was no match for the top three in the martial arts mountain. If he could defeat Lin Chen, Lin Chen would not be able to reach the top, and there would be no need for him to take action.

However, since he defeated Lin Chen, his ranking would be stuck in the middle, which would be even more awkward.

If he was no match for Lin Chen, then he would be asking for humiliation.

"Our sect has no enmity with the Canglan Sect, so there is no need for us to do this."

Hearing his senior brother's words, Chu Lei felt a little embarrassed. He knew that his senior brother was giving him face, so he just hummed in response.

……

……

The Eight Desolations Sect.

At this moment, several young men were gathered together, their faces solemn.

Disciples from other sects may refrain from challenging them, but they cannot. All the martial artists in the Yan Dynasty know that the Eight Desolations Sect and the Canglan Sect are sworn enemies.

The two sects are neighbors, and their feud has lasted for tens of thousands of years. Not long after the Eight Desolations Sect was established, the two sects had a war, and there have probably been tens of thousands of battles, large and small, to this day.

Disciples from other sects could watch Lin Chen reach the summit and at most utter a sigh, but for their Eight Desolations Sect, seeing a disciple of the Canglan Sect reach the top of Martial Dao Mountain was an insult to all disciples under the age of twenty in their Eight Desolations Sect. "It's truly hateful. Several of our senior brothers are already over twenty years old. Did the Canglan Sect deliberately choose this time?"

The Eight Desolations Sect has disciples on Martial Dao Mountain. Just a month ago, one of them ranked twenty-first, and half a year ago, another ranked sixteenth.

However, these two senior brothers are now over twenty years old, and their rankings on Martial Dao Mountain have been abolished. Currently, the highest-ranking disciple of the Eight Desolations Sect on Martial Dao Mountain is fifty-fourth.

“Fellow disciples, there’s no need to rush. Even if no one challenged Lin Chen, he wouldn’t have been able to reach the top so easily.”

A young man from the Eight Desolations Sect appeared and spoke with a smile.

"Senior Brother He, what do you mean by that?"

"Right now, everyone is wary of Lin Chen's strength and probably won't challenge him. But once Lin Chen challenges the top 30 of Martial Arts Mountain and reveals more and more of his trump cards, the clearer everyone's understanding of Lin Chen will be, and the better they will know how to deal with him."

He Chuang smiled and explained that so far, it was impossible to see what Lin Chen's trump cards were. Naturally, the innate martial artists from other sects would be wary of Lin Chen's trump cards and would not easily make a move. However, once the top thirty martial artists forced Lin Chen to reveal his trump cards, those who believed they could suppress Lin Chen would start challenging him on Martial Dao Mountain.

It's simply impossible to expect that by entering the top thirty, other innate martial artists will rank behind him and block the challenge from those who come later.

When it comes to the moment of reaching the summit, as long as someone dares to challenge Lin Chen, those innate martial artists who have been defeated by Lin Chen will choose to admit defeat, thus creating an opportunity for the other party to challenge Lin Chen.

After all, if Lin Chen really reaches the top, it would be equivalent to stepping on the shoulders of all the disciples under the age of twenty from various sects to reach the top.

"Just wait, it will get harder as time goes on."

……

……

On Martial Arts Mountain, Lin Chen killed his way up to thirty-one warriors, yet no innate martial artist dared to challenge him, leaving many of the observing martial artists with puzzled expressions.

Did all the innate martial artists who weren't on Martial Dao Mountain give up trying to stop Lin Chen?

Lin Chen didn't care what the spectators outside were thinking; at this moment, he directly chose to challenge the martial artist ranked thirtieth.

Disciples from the East Sea Divine Palace.

On the battlefield.

Zhang Xu looked at Lin Chen with a smile on his face.

"Junior Brother Lin, I've heard Senior Brother Hu mention you."

"Is this Deacon Hu?"

When the disciples of the East Sea Divine Palace mentioned Senior Brother Hu, the first person that came to Lin Chen's mind was Steward Hu of the East Sea Divine Palace.

Back then, it was Steward Hu who gave me a Dragon Transformation Grass.

"That's right, it's Senior Brother Hu Yunhua."

Zhang Xu looked at Lin Chen with amazement in his eyes: "To be honest, when Senior Brother Hu came to me a few days ago and told me about Junior Brother Lin's deeds, I was really shocked. Now, many sects probably think that Junior Brother Lin is a super genius secretly cultivated by the Canglan Sect. They would never have imagined that Junior Brother Lin was still on an overseas island just a few months ago."

To be honest, Zhang Xu wouldn't have believed it if these words hadn't come from Senior Brother Hu.

A young man from an island in a desolate martial arts region overseas, who has not been in the Yan Dynasty for long, is about to start a 100,000-win streak in martial arts.

“Junior Brother Lin, since many people are watching this battle, as a disciple of the East Sea Divine Palace, I cannot admit defeat directly. If Junior Brother Lin can withstand one of my moves, then I will consider this a loss.”

Hearing Zhang Xu's words, Lin Chen was about to speak when Zhang Xu immediately replied, "Junior Brother Lin, this concerns the reputation of my East Sea Divine Palace, so I will not hold back. I will definitely go all out in this move."

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and nodded: "Please enlighten me, Senior Brother Zhang."
