I have the best bloodline

Yesterday, the nameless member of the royal family put his longsword back into its scabbard, wrapped the tassel around his palm, and used the scabbard as a club to beat up the contestants. With Su Yan's cultivation level, he might be evenly matched with the nameless member of the royal family in the early stages due to his abundant innate magical power, but once his spiritual power is depleted, he might really be beaten to the point of vomiting milk by the nameless member.

Although Su Yan was uneasy and secretly blamed himself for drinking soy milk in the morning, he still jumped from the audience seats onto the field without hesitation and walked towards the ring with a serious face.

Fear is fear, but the bell wasn't built for nothing. Even if we can't win, we can't afford to lose!

Su Yan walked onto the arena, and the nameless member of the royal family dawdled for a while before also walking onto the arena. His whole body was covered in an airtight white veil, with a circle of gold embroidery around the edges of the veil and the cuffs. No one could see his cold-looking face and figure.

After the two stood on the arena, the nameless member of the royal family, whose back had been straight, hunched over slightly, and his spirit and energy seemed to have vanished, revealing a sense of helplessness.

The anonymous man raised his right hand, waved to the referee boy, and then turned and walked off the stage.

"Should we abstain?"

The nameless man's wave was just a very simple wave; he did not use telepathy to inform the boy that he was forfeiting, because telepathy would reveal his identity.

Royal family members shrouded in white veils represent those who have relinquished royal power, refrain from involvement in conflicts, and simply wish to live a quiet life as wealthy, unemployed individuals.

They usually don't reveal their identities, fearing that doing so would get them involved in all sorts of conflicts.

The nameless man did not answer the boy. He walked out of the ring and returned to the rest area, standing with his hands hanging down, demonstrating his withdrawal from the competition.

Su Yan stared intently at the nameless man, his face showing an unprecedented solemnity.

The nameless man, feeling slightly uncomfortable being stared at by Su Yan, turned his head slightly away.

Subconsciously, he gripped the sword with his right hand, and when he crossed his arms, he placed his right hand on the inside of his left elbow and his left hand on the inside of his right elbow. As soon as he made the movement, the nameless man immediately put his hands down.

Zhou You, Zhou You! You really deserve to die! I was worried you were living like a vagrant in Xia Yu, so I went to find you for a drink and to keep you company after I came back from the Western Mountains! And now you're telling me you have a super, super powerful background!

Su Yan first looked surprised, then his face showed a pained expression as if he had been scammed. He raised his hand and pointed tremblingly at Zhou You, who was using the alias "Nameless," looking as if he was about to vomit blood.

"The winner of the first game: Su Yan!"

The imperial city was deathly silent. The boy carefully announced the winner's name after surveying the audience.

"What the hell? We've lost big time! A Golden Core cultivator against a Foundation Establishment cultivator, how can a Golden Core cultivator admit defeat?"

The gamblers in the audience were completely devastated, never expecting another upset in the first round.

Although a forfeit in a tournament invalidates the betting odds, Xia Yu still needs to charge a 3% handling fee before refunding the spirit stones.

At the gambling table, winning or losing doesn't matter, but outside the gambling table, let alone the three percent commission, even losing a pound of spirit stones can make a gambling addict feel so heartbroken that they stop breathing.

Chapter 123 Peerless Warrior: Golden Scale

"I never expected you to be like this, Brother Zhou!"

Although Su Yan recognized the royal family member, with the contestants and audience watching, Su Yan didn't rush forward to ask Zhou You what had happened, how he had transformed from a homeless person into a member of the royal family.

Although the audience was wailing and shouting for their money back because of Zhou You's withdrawal, when the boy raised the glass ball in his hand, the gamblers started howling again, ready to place two more bets and then cause trouble for the Vice Minister of Revenue after today's arena match.

"Auntie, you didn't lose money, did you?"

Su Yan ran to the edge of the arena, jumped into the stands in a few steps to find her aunt, and asked her about the outcome of her bets.

My aunt, beaming with relief, waved her hand and said, "With my old eyes and bad luck, I wouldn't dare to place bets randomly without carefully checking the position. I just watched the first round and didn't say anything."

Having lost hundreds of thousands of spirit stones in Xia Yu, and maintaining an average annual loss of around 100,000 spirit stones, Auntie had developed a deep sense of awe and dared not recklessly place bets at the gambling table based on her Earth Immortal realm perspective.

Based on my aunt's experience, in a fight to the death, Su Yan's chances of winning against the nameless member of the royal family would be about 50-60. However, in a duel in the arena, the nameless member of the royal family would definitely be chasing Su Yan around and beating him up.

My aunt, who wasn't sure what to do and didn't have any guidance from the fox spirit's magic, didn't place any bets.

Therefore, there was no 3% handling fee.

"It's good that we didn't lose! If we can't do open source, we can at least cut costs."

Su Yan reverted to her original form, asked her aunt to apply some powder to her bottom, then jumped onto the low table of the daybed, took out a spirit stone, and waved it. A vine bud, eager for the spirit stone, emerged from the bottom of the table.

Su Yan tossed the spirit stone aside and began to enjoy himself, living a life where food was served to him and clothes were put on his plate.

Seeing Su Yan's expression, Hong Ling, who was standing to the side, had a look of both laughter and tears on her face and said:

"You fox, you haven't even started fighting yet, and you're already enjoying life?"

"What do you mean by enjoying yourself? This is called preparing for war!" Auntie corrected Hongling's inappropriate word choice with a serious face.

………………

Whether she was enjoying herself or preparing for battle, it wouldn't affect the fierce battle unfolding on the stage. Holding brass knuckles with flames swirling around her, Yu Yanning delivered a heavy punch to Qingchi's cheek, shattering the blessing of the Mountain-Turning and Earth-Covering Curse and sending Qingchi flying off the stage.

Jin Lin walked indifferently towards the arena, glanced at his master in the audience, and shook his head slightly, as if to say that there was no one who could fight.

After a morning of fighting, four more contestants were eliminated and had to return to the arena. Moreover, there was no lunch break during the Imperial Martial Arts Competition; after the first round, the second round of fighting began immediately.

The second day of the Imperial Martial Arts Competition was extremely intense, with participants possibly having to compete in three rounds.

The second round of the arena began. Sitting on the high platform, Grand Tutor Jin smiled slightly and raised his hand, sending two tokens of different materials flying out from the glass ball.

[Mid-Foundation Establishment Fox Demon: Su Yan, Water Element.]

[Mid-stage Golden Core cultivator from Falling Star City: Golden Scale.]

"what?"

Su Yan, who was sitting in the audience helping his aunt win big in the betting market, froze when he saw the two tokens. He had no idea that he would be the first to go on stage again, and that he would be facing a tough guy with negative odds.

In Xia Yu's official betting platform, betting on Golden Scales not only won't earn you a single pound of spirit stones, but you'd actually have to pay Xia Yu's betting platform a 20% penalty in spirit stones.

Jin Lin has essentially secured first place in the Imperial Martial Arts Competition. At least judging from the betting odds, no other contestant can rival him, not even the sons of the Eighth Prince.

Jin Lin is definitely a tough guy in the Imperial Martial Arts Competition!

"Should we abstain?"

After seeing the opponent's name, the aunt frowned slightly, feeling that the risk was a bit high. She turned her head to the side, raised her hand to scratch Su Yan's belly, and asked him a question.

"No, I'm going to fight!"

Su Yan snapped out of his daze and immediately said, "This is a great opportunity. It's rare for this year's number one contestant to fight Jin Lin. The people on the platform should pay some attention to him, right?"

The Black Iron Token cannot win the championship; the highest reward is a period of guidance and enlightenment from Grand Tutor Xia Yu.

This opportunity is contingent on gaining the Grand Tutor's attention and being selected by him.

Su Yan's reason for participating in the arena competition was never a royal reward, but rather to obtain knowledge of water control from his fellow dragon clan Grand Tutor, as well as other knowledge related to the dragon clan.

The Golden Scale Arena Battle is an opportunity. If even this fails to gain Grand Tutor Jin's attention, then the Imperial Martial Arts Competition will be meaningless for Su Yan.

"They've hit him!"

Su Yan jumped up from the vines, loudly announced her intention to participate, and leaped straight off the field.

"."

Jin Lin looked indifferently at the audience, watching the snow-white fox leap down, transform into a boy, and run excitedly toward the arena. A ripple appeared on his usually calm face.

The young demon's face beamed with excitement.

The Eastern Continent is the territory of the demon race, and Falling Star City is a powerful force located at the border between the human and demon races.

One of the daily tasks of cultivators in Falling Star City is to follow their elders to wipe out the demon beast clans that have just awakened their intelligence and are causing havoc all over the eastern states. Jin Lin started killing demon beasts with his master when he was in the Qi Refining stage. During this time, he has killed countless demons, enough to pile up into a mountain of corpses.

Upon seeing the cultivators from Falling Star City, all the demonic beasts displayed expressions of fear and dread, then turned and fled in terror as if they had encountered some kind of calamity.

Therefore, when Jin Lin saw that Su Yan's face showed no fear at all, but instead ran towards him excitedly, a slight ripple arose in Jin Lin's heart.

"I was underestimated by a small animal!"

Jin Lin murmured to himself, his brows furrowing slightly. He was twenty-one years old now, and eleven years had passed since he began slaying demons and monsters. This was the first time he had ever seen a young demon beast so audacious as to run towards him.

"I haven't asked yet!"

Upon seeing Su Yan step onto the arena, Jin Lin, contrary to his usual behavior, uttered his first words with a slightly aggressive tone.

"Are you a fairy?"

Upon hearing Jin Lin speak, Su Yan was taken aback and asked in disbelief.

Although Jin Lin's face was handsome, it was an androgynous appearance, and his physique lacked any feminine features. Su Yan had always thought that Jin Lin was a muscular man.

Unexpectedly, the first thing Su Yan heard was a female voice, and he immediately felt that the whole fox was in a bad mood.

Because Su Yan's strategy for himself included some low-level, despicable moves like groin strikes to create opportunities for him to exploit weaknesses in his opponents.

But Jin Lin is a fairy, so should I still kick her?

"No guidance provided!"

Jin Lin frowned and spoke again, asking Su Yan to introduce himself.

Chapter 124 The Divine Sword Engraved with Mountains, Rivers, Plants, and Trees (Long Chapter)

"I am Su Yan, a fox demon from the Southern State!"

When asked by Jin Lin, a cultivator from Falling Star City, Su Yan frankly revealed his origins, then looked at Jin Lin with a serious expression as he began to form the hand seals for his spell.

"Golden Scale, a cultivator from the Golden Academy in Falling Star City".

In response, Jin Lin directly stated the sect he belonged to, raised his left hand that was holding the scabbard, slowly moved it in front of him, and with his right hand, he drew a straight sword made of refined steel that was not particularly valuable:

"I concede three moves."

Jin Lin drew his straight sword and unleashed a flurry of swordplay, debating their strength based on their cultivation levels, and first let Su Yan make three moves.

Jin Lin's move was not intended to mock Su Yan. Giving Su Yan three moves first was equivalent to giving up the initiative, allowing the weaker party to gain the advantage. After the three moves, Jin Lin would go all out to fight Su Yan, who was weaker than her.

She respected the fox demon's courage and was unwilling to take advantage of her cultivation level to seize the initiative. If she really intended to mock Su Yan, Jin Lin could have bluntly told Su Yan to wait thirty moves before making his move. That would have been a blatant mockery, not just accepting three moves.

"Then, I apologize for any offense, Fairy!"
