At this time, a gentle laughter sounded, causing Fu Yan to stop talking.
Everyone was startled and immediately looked at the village gate, only to see a handsome young man in coarse cloth walking slowly and unhurriedly.
"Then...that's Lin Yufeng?"
At this time, someone in the crowd exclaimed, and then all of them looked at Lin Yufeng with all kinds of profound meanings.
"It's Brother Feng, it's Brother Feng who's back!" Upon seeing the visitor, Fei Ling's originally worried face was filled with surprise.
Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief and showed a happy smile: "I knew that Brother Fengzi would definitely come back."
"Lin...Lin Yufeng?" Shi Qian stared at that figure, his face full of confusion and shock, and murmured: "What's going on? How could he come back?"
He knew better than anyone else that although his Thunder Talisman did not kill Lin Yufeng, it still caused him serious injuries, and the ashes scattered along the way were enough to shorten Lin Yufeng's return.
Even if it were him, with the Thunder Running Talisman and the second level of spiritual cultivation, he would not be able to return to the gathering place in such a short period of time.
But, how could he come back?
Why? Why exactly? - At this moment, Shi Qian was filled with doubts, but more importantly, he was afraid.
That’s right, it’s fear!
He knew that the talisman had his own mark. If Lin Yufeng took out the talisman to prove it, his end would definitely be extremely miserable!
By then, what he will face is the abandonment and ridicule of his friends, being deprived of his qualifications to participate in the competition, and the scolding and punishment from his father and grandfather...
How could he, who is naturally arrogant, tolerate such a thing?
If it happened, what would happen to him? Desperate, collapsed, or suicidal?
But Shi Qian knew that there was nothing he could do now. At least in this environment, he could only wait for the moment when Lin Yufeng testified against him.
It can be said that his fate is completely in the hands of his former enemy - Lin Yufeng.
"Impossible, how come this child can come back?" Chu Tiannan's face was full of shock, and he lost his voice: "With his ninth level spiritual energy strength, how can he defeat the fire poisonous hedgehog who has reached the fifth level of spiritual energy?"
"I told you earlier, the matter..." Mr. Chu calmly looked at his pale-faced son and said slowly: "It's not as simple as you expected."
Unbelievable, extremely shocked.
Huang Gu, who was originally calm, now had a look of horror on his face, and murmured: "How could he come back?"
"Husband..." Mu Rusu looked at her husband worriedly, but she was extremely surprised. Since they met, she had never seen the latter have such an expression.
However, today, it happened twice.
And both times, it was brought about by the boy named Lin Yufeng - the boy who ranked last both times.
Not only Huang Gu, Chu Tiannan and others, but the others were also completely shocked.
Some people who know the basics naturally know how difficult Lin Yufeng's passage is. It can be said to be as difficult as climbing to the sky!
However, the cruel fact told them that this young man was back!
Although they came back in last place again, they knew that this last place had once again surpassed Mo Qingyang's first place!
"Oh my god, this kid is back!"
"How terrifying is it to defeat the fire poisonous hedgehog with nine levels of spiritual energy?"
"I think this kid is above the monster!"
"At such an age and with such strength, he is comparable to a big shot!"
After the crowd fell into a brief daze, a deafening sound erupted again. Their eyes looked at Lin Yufeng in horror, reverence, or confusion, as if they were welcoming a hero.
"What's wrong with these people?" Lin Yufeng scratched his head and wondered in his heart: "Can the last place be so excited?"...
Compared to everyone's shock, Lin Yufeng thought that he was really unlucky today.
The first stage, the test of strength, ranked last.
In the second stage, grabbing tokens, we were in last place again.
Is there anything more unfortunate than this?
But the funny thing is that it seems that his two last-place finishes have caused even more shocking sensations than his first-place finish.
"What would happen if I told them that I had just been promoted to tenth dan?" Lin Yufeng asked curiously.
However, in order to benefit the people, Lin Yufeng still chose to conceal it. The two times he was at the bottom caused a shocking sensation. If he said this again, it would really shock people.
Especially the old people in the ancient village, Lin Yufeng didn't want to cause them to have a heart attack because he was too 'shocky'. That was no joke.
"It turns out I'm not that bad." Looking at his friends cheering for him, Lin Yufeng grinned.
"A genius, a genius!" Fu Yan ran over and held Lin Yufeng's hand with excitement: "You kid, you are really shocking."
I thought it would be impossible for the child to come back, but the result was so unexpected, which really made Fu Yan himself ashamed.
"Haha, uncle, you are joking." Although Lin Yufeng was confused, he still showed a modest smile.
Little did he know that many people thought he had killed the poisonous hedgehog.
After all, everyone knows that there is a fire-poisonous hedgehog guarding the gate, so what else can they do besides killing it? It is powerful in attack and defense, and it is lazy and can't be driven away. To put it bluntly, it can't move even in the wind and rain.
Of course, even if everyone tried hard, they would never have imagined that a few nuts could knock down the fire-poisonous hedgehog that even Mo Qingyang could not resist.
"Brother Feng, you are so awesome." Fei Ling saw Lin Yufeng approaching and smiled sweetly.
"Haha, you're just lucky." Lin Yufeng laughed a few times and immediately turned his eyes to Shi Qian.
Being stared at by Lin Yufeng, Shi Qian's body trembled suddenly, and he turned his head as if he was a thief, not daring to look directly.
Lin Yufeng touched his nose. Originally, he wanted to thank Shi Qian and cast a "disdainful" look, but he didn't expect this guy to be so "shy".
Of course, Lin Yufeng didn't know that Shi Qian was so 'shy' because he was afraid that his trick would be exposed by Lin Yufeng.
The remaining seven red lightning bolts of that talisman were absorbed by Lin Yufeng and then thrown away. He didn't know that there was still Shi Qian's spiritual imprint in it. If he had known about it, he would have brought it back to testify.
"Haha, I didn't expect all the contestants to come back. It's really gratifying."
At this time, the person in charge, Fu Yan, smiled and said, "Then, the next step is the third stage of the competition."
"What will the third stage be like?" Lin Yufeng cheered up and asked curiously.
Not only Lin Yufeng, but everyone present also quickly calmed down and pricked up their ears after experiencing the shock caused by Lin Yufeng's last place.
After all, the first two stages of the competition are just a rough inspection, and the real highlight is the third stage. As long as the final stage can be passed, you can officially enter the ancient gate.
"The third stage..." Fu Yan paused and said in a loud voice: "Competition in the arena!"
"A competition in the ring?" Lin Yufeng murmured as soon as he finished speaking.
"The main event has finally arrived. The competition in the ring is the real stage for selecting talents."
"Mo Qingyang's strength is number one, and there must be no one who can rival him."
"I think Shi Qian is pretty good. The Shi family's ancestral skills are quite powerful."
As soon as they heard about the competition in the arena, everyone became interested. The excitement was even greater than before. It was obvious that they were looking forward to the third stage of the competition.
Even Shi Lao, who was resting at home, came to the gathering place accompanied by his son Shi Futian...
"Okay, okay, everyone, please calm down first."
Fu Yan pressed his hands, and after everyone calmed down, he continued: "The competition in the arena is for two parties to compete and compete. No auxiliary items are allowed. If found, they will be disqualified. Each person only has one chance to hand over their hands.
The losers will be eliminated and the winners will advance. Of course, if the losers perform well, they will also consider whether they can advance."
"No wonder this arena competition is the finale..." Hearing this, Lin Yufeng raised his eyebrows slightly.
The first two stages only give a rough idea of the level of the contestants. The true strength still has to be demonstrated through combat. Only those who perform well in actual combat can be called talents.
Many people with extraordinary talents only know how to practice blindly. Although they are very powerful, when it comes to fighting, they are defeated by practitioners with lower strength than themselves. These are called "dead study". They can only practice but not fight.
"The temporary arena has been set up. Please come with me." After Fu Yan announced some details, he led everyone to the prepared arena.
The arena is located in the center of another part of the ancient village, and is the size of a stadium.
"Tsk, tsk, the temporary arena is so wide." Lin Yufeng looked at the arena in slight surprise, secretly sighing at Gumen's high efficiency in completing such a large arena in such a short period of time.
"Now all contestants, please line up and accept the inspection." At this time, Fu Yan said solemnly.
"Check?" Lin Yufeng was startled and thought: "Do you think someone has brought supplements?"
Looking at Shi Qian again, he found that his face was calm. Lin Yufeng sneered in his heart, thinking that this guy must have secretly hidden his belongings on his way to the ring just now.
The male and female disciples of the ancient sect conducted separate inspections, which were quickly completed. After reporting to Fu Yan that no prohibited items were found, they returned to their respective posts to maintain order.
"The inspection is completed, now the third phase of the competition officially begins..."
After the last Gu Sect disciple returned to his post, Fu Yan glanced at everyone, and then said loudly: "Competition in the arena!"
“Now is the time for the real excitement!”
"I have never seen Mo Qingyang take action. I wonder how strong he is?"
"Don't underestimate Fei Ling and Chu Chen. They have quite a few high-level spiritual skills."
"I think except for Shi Qian's match against Mo Qingyang, all the other contestants can beat him without any suspense."
"Will Lin Jiayu Feng create another miracle?"
The highly anticipated competition was about to begin. Everyone kept cheering and clapping their hands, and everyone looked at the winner in their hearts with anticipation.
Fei Ling's face was tense, Chu Chen's expression was solemn, Shi Qian was still domineering, Mo Qingyang stood quietly with his eyes closed, and the other contestants also had different expressions.
Coincidentally, everyone is completely excited at this moment!
In the final battle, if you win, you will enter the coveted ancient gate, if you lose, you will lose the most precious opportunity in life.
Who receives the applause?
Who sings sad songs at the end of his life?
"What a good show..." Lin Yufeng narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured:
