Rise from a Poor Family: My Martial Arts Counterattack

Chapter 530: I taught you a lesson, but I didn't humiliate you.
evening.

The young man who had previously led Lin Chen to the courtyard arrived.

"Princess Yinyue, Brother Lin, our clan is hosting a banquet. Do you two have the time?"

"Dinner party?"

Lin Chen was somewhat surprised. Judging from the fact that the Entropy Clan didn't seem to care much about Yin Yue, why would they arrange a banquet at this time?

“This is an event that our clan’s younger generation holds every three months. I was thinking that if you two are free, you could join us.”

After Qian Lang explained, Lin Chen finally understood the meaning of the banquet.

This is a gathering of the younger generation of the Entropy Clan.

Yin Yue and Qian Lang exchanged a glance, nodded, and followed Qian Lang toward a square ahead.

At this moment, a number of young people had gathered in the square. They were all innate realm martial artists. When they saw Qian Lang bringing Lin Chen and Yin Yue over, they all looked over.

"Let me introduce you all. This is Princess Yin Yue of the Moon Soul Clan."

Qianlang introduced Yin Yue to the younger members of the clan, and many of them showed curiosity. As ancient clansmen, they knew each other quite well and understood what the identity of the Moon Soul Clan princess meant.

Not every ancient race has a royal family, but the existence of a royal family signifies that the race possesses powerful bloodline abilities.

The Moon Spirit Clan is one of them.

Therefore, even though Yin Yue was just a little girl at the moment, none of the young people of the Entropy Clan dared to underestimate her.

"As for this..."

Qianlang looked at Lin Chen: "Those of you who haven't been to the outside world may not know, but Brother Lin is very famous there. He is a prodigy disciple of the Canglan Sect, the strongest in the past few decades of Martial Arts Mountain, and recently even broke through the Tower of Babel. His strength is invincible in the third realm of the Innate Realm. He is only twenty-one years old. But that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Brother Lin is not from a martial arts family, but comes from a desolate martial arts island outside the East Sea."

This time, when Lin Chen came to the Entropy Clan with Yin Yue, he did not use a false identity to avoid causing misunderstandings among the Entropy Clan.

Lin Chen was somewhat surprised to hear Qian Lang introduce his series of titles; Qian Lang seemed to know him so well.

"Brother Lin, our Entropy Clan pays close attention to outside affairs for some reasons. To be honest, even I am shocked by the speed at which your strength has increased."

Seeing Lin Chen's surprised expression, Qian Lang smiled and offered an explanation.

Some of the Entropy Clan members present had heard of Lin Chen, while others had not, but at this moment, their eyes were filled with curiosity as they looked at Lin Chen.

As an ancient race, they possessed their own advantages, even when facing the genius disciples of those super sects in the outside world. However, they were still shocked by Lin Chen's achievements in martial arts as described by Qian Lang.

At the peak of the third realm of the Innate Realm at the age of twenty-one, no one in the clan of this generation has been able to reach that level.

"Qianlang, are you serious?"

Some members of the clan expressed their doubts, looking at Lin Chen with questioning eyes.

Lin Chen's aura as a martial artist at the third level of the Innate Realm is genuine; what they question is the statement that the third level of the Innate Realm is invincible.

Someone questioned, and Lin Chen was about to speak when Qian Lang's voice came through his ear: "Brother Lin, this introduction is at the elder's behest. The clansmen are too arrogant, and the elder hopes to use Brother Lin to temper their arrogance and let them know that there are always people more capable than themselves."

Listening to Qianlang's voice transmission in his ear, Lin Chen finally understood why Qianlang had given him so many titles, especially the phrase "unrivaled in the third realm of innate talent," which was meant to provoke hatred towards him.

"Brother Lang, with my strength, I'm afraid I can't do this. Please don't make things difficult for me."

"Brother Lin, don't worry. The elder said that you will not be let to do your work for nothing. The clan will reward you handsomely."

A generous reward? "Ahem, since it was ordered by a noble elder, as a junior, I cannot refuse."

Lin Chen's attitude changed immediately. Facing the questioning looks from some of the younger members of the Entropy Clan, he put his hands behind his back and did not respond.

Seeing Lin Chen's arrogant demeanor, Yin Yue also had a thoughtful look on her face. She glanced at Qian Lang standing next to Lin Chen and realized that Qian Lang must have whispered something to Lin Chen.

Otherwise, based on his understanding of Lin Chen, Lin Chen should have spoken humbly, instead of provoking even greater dissatisfaction among these young members of the Entropy Clan by ignoring him like this.

"At twenty-one, you reached the peak of the third realm of the Innate Realm. I am indeed no match for you, but to say that you are invincible in the third realm of the Innate Realm is too arrogant. How many people in the Yan Dynasty dare to claim that they are invincible in the same realm? I, Qian Shan, am also in the third realm of the Innate Realm. Do you dare to fight me?"

Qian Shan stared intently at Lin Chen. As a martial artist at the third level of the Innate Realm, he was indeed shocked by Lin Chen's cultivation speed, but that did not mean he acknowledged that Lin Chen was invincible at the third level of the Innate Realm.

Even these ancient clans dare not claim to be invincible at the same level, so what gives a disciple of the Canglan Sect the right to speak like that?

In the history of martial arts, those who dare to claim invincibility at the same level did not earn their reputation through the so-called Martial Arts Mountain or Tower of Babel, but rather through countless battles.

After Qian Shan spoke, everyone's eyes turned to Lin Chen. Qian Shan had been in the Innate Realm for five years, making him arguably the strongest in the clan among those in the Innate Realm, and thus qualified to challenge Lin Chen.

"Can!"

Lin Chen agreed. Since he had already made a deal with Qian Lang, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

However, since that elder of the Entropy Clan wanted to suppress the arrogance of the clan's young people, a single battle might not be enough.

The better the results, the greater the reward.

Lin Chen understood this principle.

"Then please."

Seeing Lin Chen agree, Qian Shan's eyes also showed fighting spirit. He slowly walked to the center of the square, waiting for Lin Chen to come over.

"Not in a hurry."

Lin Chen didn't move, but instead scanned the entire room: "I wonder how many of you here are at the third level of the Innate Realm?"

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Qian Lang was stunned, somewhat confused about what Lin Chen was going to do, but he quickly glanced at the clansmen present: "Including me, there are a total of sixteen people."

"Sixteen..."

Lin Chen nodded. He had just sensed the sixteen people with his divine sense. Among them, about six were at the peak of the third stage of the Innate Realm, and the rest, judging from their aura, had only recently entered the third stage of the Innate Realm.

"Then let's all come at once, instead of one by one."

Lin Chen stood with his hands behind his back and spoke calmly. However, his words caused an uproar among the young people of the Entropy Clan present.

Go together?

One person against sixteen?

The young man from the Entropy Clan looked at Lin Chen with eyes full of anger.

These words are an insult to the younger generation of their Entropy Clan.

Even Qian Lang, who had heard rumors about Lin Chen, was stunned. The elders had asked Lin Chen to curb the arrogance of the clansmen, but Lin Chen's actions were to humiliate the clansmen. If all the clansmen at the third level of the Innate Realm attacked together, it would be fine if they won, but if they lost, it wouldn't just be a matter of curbing their arrogance; their martial spirit would probably collapse.
