Chapter 14

As Lin Zheng slowly walked up to the stage, Xu Ran's expression grew more and more sinister. Thinking about Lin Zheng's disdain for him in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, Xu Ran felt an uncontrollable evil fire rising within him. Moreover, if he could just kill Lin Zheng, he might even receive a reward from his master!

Thinking of this, Xu Ran couldn't help but feel a surge of heat in his heart. It was just defeating a third-level waste of space. Now, I'll show you what a real difference is. Even if you have been enduring something or have had some extraordinary encounter, what does it matter? A waste of space is still a waste of space, and I'll make your death quick and painless!

Xu Ran licked his lips, feeling increasingly excited!

Lin Zheng walked up to the stage and stood quietly on the side, waiting for the referee to announce the start of the match!

At the command, Xu Ran suddenly clenched his fists and struck from a distance. Lin Zheng swiftly moved from one side of the stage to the other! The audience below watched Lin Zheng intently, afraid to miss any exciting moment!

Having dodged the attack, Lin Zheng's feet touched the ground, and he immediately shot forward like a rocket, his right hand charged with the Thunder Fist, aiming for Xu Ran!

Seeing Lin Zheng's attack, Xu Ran's eyes narrowed. He could clearly see the dominance of Lin Zheng's punch, with thunder sounds flashing as the fist moved. He didn't remember any such technique within the sect!

However, before he could think further, Xu Ran crossed his hands in front of his chest, shouting, "Iron Arm Shield!" His arms began to swell, veins protruding, and his massive arms indeed formed a shield in front of his chest!

Bang! The two collided fiercely. Lin Zheng remained in place, leaning forward with his fist still extended, a faint smile on his face! In the next moment, Xu Ran was hit as if by a wild beast! His robust body slid backward, blood splattering from his arms, clearly injured by Lin Zheng's punch!

Lin Zheng's fist was unscathed, and he still wore a faint smile. The female disciples in the audience were already swooning, their eyes sparkling with stars. No matter how much of a waste of space Lin Zheng had been before, at this moment, they had completely forgotten the past!

The audience watching the 36th stage almost all appeared stunned, with only a few people showing obvious surprise and confusion!

Xu Ran, standing still, took a deep breath. He had completely withstood the force of the punch, and his hands, now back to normal, trembled involuntarily. The power of that punch had shattered his Iron Arm Shield, which he had practiced to perfection. Looking at the wounds on his arms, Xu Ran was inwardly shocked. It seemed he had underestimated this waste of space!

Lin Zheng retracted his fist and stood there, looking calm and composed, neither pressing the attack nor mocking. It seemed as if the shocking punch was just a casual move. The audience, seeing Lin Zheng's expression, couldn't help but admire his demeanor. How could he be so cool and collected?

Many of the female disciples were already swooning, their eyes shooting little flames, each one shouting in their hearts, "Mine! This is mine! I'll dedicate myself to him tonight, and no one will stop me!"

Xu Ran, seeing Lin Zheng still standing there, felt his anger rise. What? Was he pitying him and giving him time to heal? Xu Ran gritted his teeth, his spiritual energy surging, and the dust on the stage was scattered by his aura!

"You, you're just a waste of space, a waste of space who can't even break through to the first level. No matter what extraordinary encounters you've had, you won't be my match. Boy, I'll make you beg for mercy at my feet! Watch this! Wound Fist!" Xu Ran growled, his fists striking various acupoints on his body. Each punch made him spit blood, his face turning red. After striking all over his body, Xu Ran's face was completely red, his body towering, his features twisted, and a surge of spiritual energy continuously swirling around him before being absorbed into his body!

"Waste of space, beg for mercy, and I'll make your death quick!" Xu Ran said sinisterly. After using the secret technique, his blood surged, giving him immense power for a short time, but the consequences were severe. After all, he was from a minor family and had no powerful techniques to learn!

"Actually, the Wound Fist, which harms oneself before harming the enemy!"

"Xu Ran is going all out. He's not just at the fifth level now, right?"

"Crazy, is it really necessary? Can Lin Zheng withstand it?"

"Waste of space, come and die!" Xu Ran, enduring the pain from the surge of power, roared at Lin Zheng. He had to kill this person, he had to!

Lin Zheng, for the first time, looked up at Xu Ran, his body slightly swaying, his tone icy, "Yes, I am a waste of space. I wish they would scold me like this. Do you know, if it weren't for me, how could we be in this situation? But only they can say it. What are you, and do you deserve to say these two words?"

Boom! Lin Zheng's spiritual energy surged through his body, running through the golden channels, and he charged forward. The spiritual energy in his hands, accelerated by the golden nodes, burst out with the Thunder Fist!

Boom! Xu Ran had no time to react; he couldn't even see Lin Zheng's movements! In the next moment, his body hair stood on end, and a massive force hit his stomach!

Pfft! A mouthful of blood, mixed with internal organs, was spat out!

Xu Ran's body bent, and another massive force hit his forehead, sending him flying. He felt like a sandbag in mid-air, countless punches hitting his body, and he no longer felt the pain. The potential brought by the Wound Fist was instantly shattered by the violent attack, and he could only feel the heavy blows from all directions!

Suddenly, all the punches disappeared. Xu Ran, just opening his swollen eyes, saw a foot coming down on him with the force of a thunderbolt!

Boom! Xu Ran was stomped into the ground by Lin Zheng, the stage's stone bricks cracking, and cracks spreading in all directions. Xu Ran spat out large amounts of blood, his limbs completely deformed, and his chest was crushed under Lin Zheng's foot!

Rustle! The audience was completely stunned!

What was that violent barrage?

Countless people couldn't help but feel their fingers twitch, their blood boiling! It was too violent, too exciting! No one could have imagined that the final outcome would be like this. Xu Ran, after using the secret technique, was beaten into a sandbag, instantly killed! It was an instant kill!

For a moment, the 36th stage erupted with deafening roars and cheers!

The surrounding people were drawn to this sudden noise, all frowning. Could there be something astonishing happening on the 36th stage? No way, when I observed, there were no strong figures, no experts. Oh, Xu Ran and Zhang Zhi had decent cultivation, but the opponent was only at the third or fourth level. How could there be anything astonishing? Just a standout among the weak!

Wait! Could there be a dark horse?

Unless there is a dark horse! The crowd, unable to resist their curiosity, gathered around the 36th stage and saw Lin Zheng, whom they had always considered a waste of space, calmly stepping on Xu Ran!

When did the world become so crazy?

Lin Zheng ignored the cheers of the crowd, looking down at Xu Ran and calmly asked, "Say, who is the waste of space?"

Lin Zheng pressed Xu Ran firmly under his foot, blood continuously flowing from Xu Ran's mouth, his body in excruciating pain. His swollen eyes opened wide, filled with disbelief and fear. He never thought Lin Zheng would be so strong!

Lin Zheng gently raised his head, took a deep breath, and asked again, "Say, who is the waste of space?"

At this moment, Xu Ran was completely broken by Lin Zheng. Although Lin Zheng looked calm, he knew that if Lin Zheng pressed his foot any harder, he would die!

In an instant, Xu Ran's entire spirit world collapsed. Ignoring his dignity, he trembled and said, "I, I am the waste of space! Spare me! Spare me! I don't want to die!"

Lin Zheng hooked his foot, kicking Xu Ran into the air, and then kicked him toward Zhang Zhi! Zhang Zhi, in the audience, his eyes narrowing, caught Xu Ran with both hands, his eyes red, as if ready to devour someone! After all, his relationship with Xu Ran was not just ordinary!

The audience was truly petrified. Lin Zheng was too domineering, too manly!

In the next moment, countless people roared loudly! A dark horse was born!

They had completely forgotten their previous mocking faces. As for the female disciples who had been watching Lin Zheng, they were not just swooning but were like a flood, shouting Lin Zheng's name, wishing to rush up and strip him for a closer look!

Lin Zheng, looking at the cheering crowd, felt no strangeness. He looked down at the broken stage.

"This is just the first step!" Lin Zheng clenched his fist and took a deep breath!

Bearing too much, Lin Zheng had no interest in wasting his energy on these matters. He just wanted the first place, and then he would give the reward to the fat guy. He just wanted to silently prove his glory!

The referee on the stage took a while to react, announcing Lin Zheng's victory and his advancement to the next round!

Lin Zheng stood on the stage without leaving. The referee remained silent, wanting to see what other surprising actions this young man could take! After all, rules are made by people, and Lin Zheng now had the strength to make demands!

The audience murmured, wondering if Lin Zheng had something else to do?

Right, there's still Zhang Zhi. I heard Lin Zheng and Zhao Yu's group had some conflicts. It seems Lin Zheng is going to challenge Zhang Zhi next! Some clever people discussed this with those around them, and the conclusion quickly gained widespread agreement!

In the past, Xu Ran and Zhang Zhi followed Zhao Yu, bullying others. Now that Xu Ran was severely injured by Lin Zheng, everyone felt secretly pleased. If Lin Zheng could also cripple Zhang Zhi, it would be fantastic! However, Zhao Yu's strength is not weak!

So, what will happen next? A challenge? Is it a challenge?

Looking forward, so looking forward!

The audience turned their eyes to Zhang Zhi, whose eyelids were twitching. He had already crossed the fifth level and was now at the peak of the sixth level. Could Lin Zheng really be challenging him? Damn it, what kind of look are these people giving me? They're treating me like a monkey!

Damn, damn, all because of Lin Zheng. Zhang Zhi stood straight, staring at Lin Zheng on the stage, his right hand on the hilt of the long sword at his waist! It seemed as if he would charge up and kill Lin Zheng as soon as Lin Zheng issued the challenge!

The referee, seeing the audience's reactions, was inwardly shocked. Could Lin Zheng really be challenging Zhang Zhi? Zhang Zhi is not the same as Xu Ran!

He had observed Zhang Zhi, who followed the path of the fierce blade, with good talent but a ruthless personality. Due to the power of the Zhao family, he followed Zhao Yu as a subordinate. He was not an easy opponent!

The referee slowly said, "Lin Zheng, since you've won, go down. If you want to challenge Zhang Zhi, others can also challenge, disrupting the rules. How can we select the first place on this stage?"

The audience all felt regretful. It seemed they would have to wait a few more rounds to see the two face off! However, the crowd was patient, suppressing their desires and waiting. Some had already started calling their friends!

A rare dark horse, a rare grudge, big news, big excitement!

Who knew that Lin Zheng's next words would drive the crowd at the 36th stage into a frenzy!
