It is not uncommon for fire ring-level warriors with the Flame Dragon Mark to serve as guests in villages.
Yanlong City is a big city with many Fire Ring-level warriors. It is inevitable that there will be a few who are not doing well. These people usually choose to leave Yanlong City and join large villages with few Fire Ring-level warriors to enjoy the respectable life.
Guest treatment.
That is to say, as the saying goes, it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail.
However, most of these people are older warriors with little potential for advancement. They are generally around forty or fifty years old, and there are very few guest officials as young as Liang Jianming.
Ke Qing is also a member of the village, so Cheng Xing did not violate the rules by letting Liang Jianming participate in the competition.
The three elders who served as witnesses discussed quietly for a moment, then sighed softly and shook their heads helplessly at Su Ping and others.
Seeing this, Cheng Xing showed a proud look on his face, while Su Ping and others' hearts sank.
Because of the age limit, they never considered Ke Qing. They didn't expect that there was such a young fire ring level powerhouse hiding in Huo Xiong Village. This was not good. They themselves were fire ring level warriors. Naturally
Knowing the difference between the fire ring level and the fire level, Lin Yingning was definitely no match for that person even if he touched the edge of the fire ring level.
"Is it really necessary to admit defeat?" This thought couldn't help but flash in everyone's mind.
From the whispers of people around him, Lin Ze had learned about the flame dragon pattern and looked thoughtfully at the pattern on Liang Jianming's collarbone.
On the other side, after Liang Jianming revealed his identity, he listened to the whispers coming from around him and looked at the shocked expressions on people's faces. His vanity was greatly satisfied. He raised his head and glanced at Lin Yingning, proudly
smiled and said:
"Now that you know that I am a ring-of-fire warrior, you should understand that you are no match. You might as well just admit defeat to avoid wasting our energy."
When Lin Yingning heard this, she glanced at him, took a deep breath, and nodded gently to the elder of Huodiao Village. Her intention to continue the competition was already obvious.
She also knew in her heart that the hope of defeating Liang Jianming was slim, but she was unwilling to give up like this.
Seeing this, the elder of Huodiao Village sighed secretly and kicked the stone high into the sky.
Liang Jianming sneered, clenched his fists, and the moment the stone hit the ground, he jumped forward like a lion and a tiger fighting a rabbit, attacking Lin Yingning.
As a true fire ring level, his attacks naturally come with blazing fire energy, and they are obviously more violent and hot than what Lin Yingning used before. Before his fist comes, a burst of hot air rushes towards him.
, which makes people unable to help but feel breathless.
Lin Yingning's heart was awe-inspiring, she bit her silver teeth, her palms were also covered with fire element, and she charged head-on.
The two of them fought in the blink of an eye, and the sound of fists and kicks clashed continuously for a while. A violent heat wave invaded all around, and the grass on the ground around them that was swept by the air wave curled up, and a few even ignited a little spark.
Some young soldiers from the Fire Fox Village Hunting Team watched the battle intently, but could only see two afterimages. For a moment, they thought Lin Yingning and his opponent were equally matched, and they couldn't help but feel very happy.
However, Su Ping, Yu Yong and others still had solemn expressions on their faces. They were both at the Fire Ring level, so they could clearly see the fight between the two. Liang Jianming obviously did not try his best, and just attacked Lin Yingning in a playful manner. Even so, he still let
The girl was tired of fighting, and her defeat was gradually becoming apparent.
Fire ring-level warriors can not only integrate fire elements into attacks to increase their power, but can also adhere to the body surface to condense a protective layer to resist the opponent's attacks. Lin Yingning used this to resist Cheng Dongyang's fist before, and also
It hurt him.
However, Lin Yingning has not yet truly stepped into the fire ring level, and the condensed body-protecting fire element can only last for a short moment. This is not the case for Liang Jianming. His body surface shines with red light, as if it is covered with a layer of fire clothing. Lin Yingning
Ning's fire-yuan attack landed on it like a mud cow entering the sea, unable to even hurt Liang Jianming's hair.
"Haha, it's useless. You can't break the Huoyuan Gangyi with your half-baked fire element attack."
Liang Jianming sneered with ease, "I heard that you are still a famous genius within a hundred miles? Even so, it is delusional to want to fight beyond the level. Is the gap between the fire level and the fire ring level so easy to bridge?"
As he spoke, as if to verify what he said, he punched out hard, as if he hadn't seen Lin Yingning's attack, and let it fall on him, only making waves on Huo Yuangang's clothes.
There were ripples in the air, and his fist hit his opponent directly.
Facing this blow, Lin Yingning's body surface flashed with red light, and a layer of Huoyuan Gang clothes also appeared, intending to resist, but as Liang Jianming's punch fell, the red light flashed sharply, like a bubble bursting, Lin Yingning
He only had time to turn slightly to the side when he was hit by a punch on the shoulder. His pretty face suddenly turned pale. She stepped back a few steps and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.
"Do you want to fight again?" Liang Jianming retracted his fist leisurely and showed a proud smile.
Lin Yingning's face turned cold, and he was about to step forward to continue the fight, but he seemed to be injured internally and coughed violently.
Yu Yong immediately stepped forward, took her arm, and whispered: "Chief, don't be brave!"
The competition is important, but right now Lin Yingning is the most important person in Fire Fox Village, and there is no room for failure.
Lin Yingning met Yu Yong's firm gaze and was startled. Then his expression darkened, he sighed, and with Yu Yong's help, he turned around and returned to the queue in Fire Fox Village.
Seeing this scene in his eyes, Liang Jianming laughed and said loudly: "Who is next?"
There was silence in Fire Fox Village for a while, and everyone looked at each other. Even the leader was no match for this man. Who else could defeat him?
"There is no one left? So you are planning to admit defeat?" Liang Jianming sneered.
Many young soldiers in Fire Fox Village looked angry, and a young man suddenly stepped out from the crowd and said angrily: "I'll do it!"
After saying that, without waiting for the elders to stop him, he strode towards the center of the open space.
He was originally one of the candidates for this competition, but he was only at the sixth level of Fire. Not to mention Lin Yingning, he couldn't even compare to Yang Xiaolai. Naturally, he was no match for Liang Jianming. As soon as the battle started, he was directly beaten by a
The punch hit his chest, and he vomited blood and fell to the ground. He looked sluggish and couldn't get up for a long time. He was immediately carried down by his companions.
"It seems that this is all that Fire Fox Village can do." Liang Jianming said with disdain, "If you don't want to admit defeat, let the next person come on stage. Don't you have one person left?"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Qing in the crowd suddenly felt suffocated, and secretly complained in his heart.
Naturally, he was the last person left.
He was originally pessimistic about the competition with the Fire Bear Village. After all, his opponent was a large village with strong strength and many trump cards. Even if there was a restriction that contestants must not be over 20 years old, he was still not sure of winning the competition. As a result, things turned out
Just as he expected, Fire Bear Village found a fire ring level powerhouse from nowhere, and even the strongest leader was defeated by the opponent.
How could he win against such a strong man?
What's the point of playing now besides losing face?
Liu Qing's mouth was full of bitterness, and he hesitated whether to go on the field. Suddenly, his shoulders sank, and someone put a hand on his shoulder. He turned around and saw that it was Lin Ze.
"If you don't want to play, how about me?" Lin Ze said with a smile.
"you?"
Liu Qing froze on the spot, looking Lin Ze up and down with confusion on his face.
He, a sixth-level fire fighter, was not sure he could beat that person. How could Lin Ze have the confidence to play?
What is this guy planning?
"What? Do you plan to go out to fight?" Lin Ze looked at the surprised Liu Qing and smiled, "I will explain to the elders and captain later, just say that I forced you forcefully."
The worst that can happen is that he will be scolded by the elders afterwards.
Speaking of which, it would be great if the leaders and elders were willing to admit defeat directly. The result of the competition is already determined. Why are you still hesitating?
Thinking like this, Liu Qing gritted his teeth, nodded heavily, and whispered: "Okay, it's up to you. Remember, it was you who asked for it, not me who forced you!"
Lin Ze smiled and patted his shoulder, turned around and walked out of the crowd, walking towards Liang Jianming.
The three elders of Su Ping were discussing in a low voice, hesitating whether to admit defeat. From the corner of their eyes, they suddenly saw a person coming out of the crowd. When they turned around, they couldn't help but be stunned.
Lin Ze?
Why is he playing? Isn't Liu Qing the last person to play?
"Lin Ze, what do you want to do? Get back quickly!" Su Ping couldn't help shouting urgently.
Lin Ze waved his hand without looking back and continued walking forward without stopping.
Su Ping was about to shout, but was interrupted impatiently by Liang Jianming: "Stop dawdling, hurry up and finish this last game. I can't stand you guys struggling to death."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Lin Ze. His eyes fell on the other person's face, and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly. He snorted jealously in his heart and decided to beat this guy into a pig's head later.
Not far away, Cheng Xing looked at Lin Ze for a few times, doubts flashed in his eyes, and asked a middle-aged man next to him with a weathered face but bright eyes: "This man looks familiar, who is he?"
?”
The middle-aged man hesitated and replied: "It seems to be Lin Kui's nephew."
Cheng Xing was stunned and asked: "How strong is this person?"
"This...I'm not sure, but he doesn't seem to be a member of the Fire Fox Village hunting team."
Cheng Xing suddenly lost interest when he heard this. Since he was not a member of the hunting team, it meant that his strength had not even reached the fire level. There was nothing noteworthy about such a little shrimp.
Thinking like this, the look he cast towards Lin Ze was filled with a trace of disdain and contempt.
Lin Ze's eyes wandered around, and he could see the changes in Liang Jianming and Cheng Xing's expressions, and a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
