Chapter 204 Sun Yu: I refuse to accept this!

The next morning.

Lin Feng and Sun Yu, along with the main force of the Sword Sect, headed to the martial arts arena in the city.

Lin Feng looked up at the sky and felt that the sky was unusually blue, so deep that it seemed unreal.

Lin Feng frowned. Although the sunlight was bright, it seemed to have lost its usual warmth, becoming glaring and cold.

Lin Feng looked at the crowd around him. Everyone else was chatting and laughing without any sign of anything amiss. Was he the only one with this feeling?

Could it be that having a life attribute exceeding 10,000 allows one to sense danger earlier?

A shadow fell over Lin Feng's heart; it seemed he needed to be extra careful.

The city was too big; it took the several thousand-strong Ma Yi Guard a long time to reach the training ground in the center of the city by galloping on horseback for an hour.

Tens of thousands of people gathered around the training ground.

These people were dressed in fine clothes, and most of them had some martial arts skills and were related to the Sword Sect.

The major families of the Sword Sect have multiplied in this land for so many years, with countless descendants. Most of these distant relatives within the clans have been sent to live in the prefectural city.

The training ground had four gates on each of the four cardinal directions. The Ma Yi Guards lined up to enter the training ground through the east gate.

The civilians who came to watch the spectacle showed no respect for the Ma Yiwei's troops and continued to chat and laugh.

The Ma Yi Guards quickly entered the center of the training ground.

Lin Feng glanced around and felt that this martial arts arena resembled an ancient dueling arena.

In the center is a wide oval-shaped field, surrounded by tiered stands that can accommodate tens of thousands of spectators.

The Sword Sect built ten arenas in the central oval-shaped arena.

At this time, the city lord's mansion, the city guards, and the government offices had all arrived.

Many martial artists were also gathered in the center of the training ground.

General Jia Pengfei of the Ma Yi Guard in the prefectural city looked at the ten seeded contestants of the Ma Yi Guard and said, "This is no longer a simple martial arts competition; it concerns the face of our Ma Yi Guard."

Jia Pengfei turned to look at the stands on one side, "The Commander and several envoys are watching from the stands."

If our Ma Yi Guards can't even win a single match, we'll lose face big time and we'll definitely get a beating when we get back.

You must treat this competition as a life-or-death duel.

Win and you'll get a promotion and plenty of resources.

Losing means being demoted by one rank and receiving a beating.

When Jia Pengfei's gaze swept over Lin Feng, he said, "If you can win, I'll give you another four hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills."

Lin Feng smiled. To motivate his subordinates, Jia Pengfei was going all out.

Lin Feng clasped his hands and said, "General, please remember your words. Your subordinate will do his utmost."

The others echoed Lin Feng's words, "Your subordinates will do their utmost."

Half an hour before the competition was to begin, Jia Pengfei finished his speech and told everyone to disperse and do their own thing.

Just as Lin Feng and Sun Yu were about to go to the arena together, Lin Feng was called away by Jia Pengfei.

"General Lin, come with me. The deputy commander wants to see you."

Sun Yu wandered around the training ground alone.

Lin Feng followed Jia Pengfei through the passageway they had entered through, walked to the area below the martial arts arena stands, turned into a side passageway, and entered an old-fashioned room.

There was a wooden table and two chairs in the room, and a tea set was placed on the wooden table.

The deputy commander was sitting in a chair, sipping tea.

Jia Pengfei escorted Lin Feng into his room and then left.

The deputy commander beckoned to Lin Feng, "General Lin, come and sit down. Let's have a cup of tea before the martial arts competition starts."

With the deputy commander present, there was no way he could do it, so Lin Feng declined, "Your subordinate..."

"Don't be so formal, it's just the two of us here."

Lin Feng didn't feel inferior to anyone; he was simply acting according to the hierarchical rules of this world.

Since the deputy commander had said so, he stopped pretending, sat down, picked up his teacup, and took a sip. "Good tea!"

Seeing that Lin Feng was completely at ease, the deputy commander smiled and said, "General Lin is indeed a straightforward person."

My name is Ji Yunfeng. Although I am a member of the Ji family, the number one peak of the Sword Sect, I have long been kicked out of the Ji family.

"Thanks to Mr. Hong's kindness in taking me under his wing, I was fortunate enough to break through to the Innate Realm."

It turns out this person is my senior brother. No wonder he took such good care of me.

Lin Feng put down his teacup, stood up, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ji Yunfeng, and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother Ji."

Ji Yunfeng stood up and said, "Junior brother, there's no need to be so polite. Master often mentions you after returning to the mountain, and his longing for you is evident in his words."

After this martial arts competition, my junior brother must visit Master at the Sword Sect.

"Of course, of course. I miss my master very much. I wonder how his legs are?"

“Alas, the cold poison is difficult to cure. Even the medical masters on the mountain cannot cure Master’s cold poison. Master still needs the wheelchair you made to walk.”

The two brothers chatted while drinking tea.

……

Sun Yu was strolling around the training ground when Little Grey on his shoulder grabbed his ear with one of its tiny paws and barked twice.

Squeak, squeak, squeak, "There are too many experts here, I'm afraid it might be dangerous. I'd better snuggle into your arms."

"There's no need for that. I feel like other people are looking at me with envy."

They're probably all envious that I have a monster companion.

Sun Yu didn't take it seriously and wandered around in the crowd.

Little Gray's little paws kept gripping Sun Yu's ears.

Little Gray looked around, and it was clear that he was filled with unease.

When Sun Yu walked down to the arena of the city lord's mansion.

Whoosh! A sword flash grazed past Sun Yu's ear.

*Poof!* Little Gray on Sun Yu's shoulder was hit by the sword light and exploded into a pool of blood mist.

Blood mist splattered all over Sun Yu's head and face.

Sun Yu's eyes widened. He reached out with a trembling hand to touch his shoulder, only to find a pool of blood.

The white-clad youth emitting sword light stood on the arena, looking at Sun Yu.

"I hate these hairy monsters the most. I kill every single one I see."

With bloodshot eyes, Sun Yu drew his longsword and charged at the white-robed youth, shouting, "I'll kill you! Give me back Little Gray!"

The young man in white didn't even make a move; two guards in hemp clothing rushed over and stopped Sun Yu.

Clang, clang, clang, the three of them started fighting.

But Sun Yu's skills were simply not up to par, and he couldn't break through the two men's blockade.

One of them shouted at Sun Yu, "You brat, are you crazy? That's Dai Haoran from the Dai family of Earth Sword Peak, the second peak of the Sword Sect. He could crush you with a flick of his finger. Why aren't you kneeling down and begging for mercy?"

"I don't care who he is, he killed my Little Grey, and I will make him pay with his life."

The young man in white on the stage frowned. "Kid, you're pretty arrogant. I killed one of your pets, and you're already trying to fight me to the death."

With a wave of his hand, the young man in white sent four warriors from the city lord's mansion down from the arena to surround Sun Yu.

Seeing this, the two guards in hempen robes fought even more fiercely.

They joined the four men from the city lord's mansion in attacking Sun Yu.

These two were the two men from the Fucheng Ma Yiwei who got the quota. Just a couple of days ago, they were taking turns flattering Jia Pengfei.

Sun Yu was quickly defeated.

With a clang, Sun Yu's longsword was knocked away, and several major acupoints on his body were sealed.

The two guards in hempen robes carried Sun Yu to the white-robed youth, one on each side.

"Young Master Dai, we've brought this kid to you."

The young man named Dai Shao ignored the two of them and looked at Sun Yu, asking, "You're not convinced?"

Sun Yu shouted, "I refuse to accept this!"

*Slap!* The young man in white slapped Sun Yu across the face, causing Sun Yu to vomit blood.
