Dragon Martial Sovereign-Chapter 29: The One Who Should Admit Defeat Is You!

At this moment, Lin Fan’s face took on a very odd expression as he thought to himself: "Haha, Ming Haoyu? Enemies really do cross each other’s paths!"

Previously, Ming Haoyu had tried to come to Lin Fan to demand protection money but ended up getting his Space Ring stolen by Lin Fan instead. Who would have thought that today, the two of them would be facing off again?

On the other hand, Ming Haoyu’s face turned extremely unsightly, and the only thought in his mind was: "Damn it, how could I have run into this scourge?"

At the same time, many people also began to discuss amongst themselves.

"Who is Lin Fan? How come I’ve never heard this name before?"

"Yes, I’ve never heard of him either. This guy must have entered the Sky Star Sect through backdoor connections!" freēwēbnovel.com

"Hmph, such a scion, relying on some clout from his family to get into the Sky Star Sect through the backdoor, is truly the height of shame, a disgrace to martial artists!"

"Hehe, I really want to see what this Lin Fan looks like! Haha!"

For a time, most people were utterly disdainful of Lin Fan.

Naturally, many of the surrounding discussions reached Lin Fan’s ears, but he was unconcerned, casually walking towards the first stage as if he hadn’t heard anything.

Soon, Lin Fan reached the first stage.

"So that’s Lin Fan? Merely at the Early Period of the Into Profound Realm in cultivation?"

The majority of individuals, after seeing Lin Fan and realizing that he was only at the Early Period of Into Profound Realm in cultivation, looked down on him even more.

"As expected, someone who got in through the back door, even his cultivation is so low?" someone said mockingly.

...

Lin Fan stood on the stage and loudly said: "Ming Haoyu, aren’t you coming up yet?"

Ming Haoyu could only climb onto the first stage with a bitter face.

When the people below saw Ming Haoyu step onto the stage, they began to discuss again.

"I know this Ming Haoyu. He’s the son of the Ming City Lord. Although he’s only at the Early Period of Into Profound Realm in cultivation, his combat strength is quite impressive. It looks like today, Lin Fan is definitely going to be easily taken down by Ming Haoyu!"

"Haha, someone who got in through the back door is just that, he’s bound to be at the bottom of the ranking competition!"

...

Lin Fan looked towards Ming Haoyu, who had a bitter face, and asked, "Shall we begin?"

"I... I..."

Ming Haoyu wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn’t say anything at all.

Others might not know how formidable Lin Fan was, but Ming Haoyu was very aware that he was no match for Lin Fan at all.

"I surrender!"

In the end, Ming Haoyu could only admit defeat.

Actually, Ming Haoyu didn’t want to surrender either, as it was too embarrassing to admit defeat in such a setting, but he had no choice. He was well aware that if he didn’t surrender, Lin Fan might take the opportunity to torment him later.

What?

The people watching the stage were extremely surprised to see Ming Haoyu surrender directly.

Everyone had thought that Ming Haoyu definitely would take Lin Fan down properly.

But unexpectedly...

In the end, Ming Haoyu admitted defeat straightaway?

This was too surprising!

"Since you’ve already admitted defeat, then get off the stage!"

Lin Fan looked at Ming Haoyu and said indifferently.

This time, Ming Haoyu didn’t say a word, only gritting his teeth as he left the first stage.

So, Ming Haoyu became the first person to be eliminated in the ranking tournament, and he was even the one who took the initiative to admit defeat.

Lin Fan leisurely stepped off the number one fighting platform, and after a fierce battle, the eliminations were completed on platforms two through ten. The first round of the ranking tournament continued...

Lin Fan sat quietly in the corner, seemingly indifferent on the surface, but in actuality, all his attention was focused on the fighting platforms. After the first round of ranking matches, Lin Fan had taken note of some individuals.

For instance, Liu Junli and Cheng Lin were incredibly powerful, and Lin Fan was absolutely certain that their combat strength had definitely reached the True Profound Realm.

To be honest, Lin Fan believed that, at this point, he stood no chance of victory against them...

"It seems there’s no shortage of geniuses in the entire Barbarian lands!" Lin Fan thought to himself.

Additionally, Lin Fan also witnessed Lin Tianlin’s performance.

Lin Fan was amazed to discover that Lin Tianlin was also exceptionally strong at this point. His combat strength might not have reached the True Profound Realm, but he was only a step away from it. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Lin Tianlin was only a hair’s breadth away from the True Profound Realm.

After comparing in his mind, Lin Fan concluded that, if he were to fight Lin Tianlin at this time, it was hard to say who would win or lose.

"Who would have thought, in such a short period of time, Lin Tianlin’s growth could be this rapid? But that’s good, he’s worthy to be my opponent!" A surge of War Intent suddenly welled up deep inside Lin Fan.

In the afternoon, the first round of the ranking tournament finally came to an end.

Elder Zhao appeared and announced, "Alright, I hereby declare the end of the first round of the ranking tournament. Everyone rest for the night, and we will continue tomorrow. I hope those who advanced this time will cultivate well, and I wish you all good luck in the upcoming ranking matches!"

"That’s all, you may all disperse!"

Elder Zhao finished speaking and then left.

That night, Lin Fan was completely immersed in cultivation, without another word said...

The second round of the ranking tournament continued the next day.

Today’s battles were evidently fiercer than yesterday’s. Although the number of fights had decreased, the duration had increased, with two evenly matched opponents fighting for nearly half an hour before determining the winner.

By noon, it was finally Lin Fan’s turn.

His opponent was a tall young man named Gao Lei, with a Late Period Into Profound Realm cultivation.

In fact, when Gao Lei found out that his opponent was Lin Fan, his heart was filled with immense joy.

He knew that he could definitely advance to the top three hundred!

After all, he was aware that Lin Fan was just at the Early Period of Into Profound Realm cultivation, and with his own strength, defeating Lin Fan would be a matter of minutes.

"Ha ha!"

Gao Lei burst into laughter, loudly saying, "Where is Lin Fan? Are you too scared to come up? Ha ha..."

Gao Lei had the air of having victory in his grasp.

And Lin Fan, the guy was still remarkably calm, walking step by step towards the fighting platform, until he faced Gao Lei.

At that moment, Gao Lei was still laughing. He looked at Lin Fan and said loudly, "Just a trash at the Early Period of the Into Profound Realm, you’re no match for me. Now, I’ll give you a chance, admit defeat!"

"If you don’t give up now, I will make you regret participating in the ranking tournament!"

As Gao Lei spoke, a very cruel smile appeared on his face.

Many people familiar with Gao Lei knew that this guy loved to torment his opponents. They were clear that if Lin Fan didn’t concede now, his fate would be very grim.

Yet at the same time, most people also thought that under such circumstances, as long as Lin Fan wasn’t a fool, he would choose to admit defeat.

After all, the gap between the Early Period and the Late Period of Into Profound Realm was simply too large and incomparable.

However, to everyone’s surprise, Lin Fan looked back at Gao Lei and said indifferently, "The one who should admit defeat is you!"

After a brief pause, Lin Fan continued, "I’ll return to you the words you just said. I’m giving you a chance to admit defeat. If you don’t, I will make you regret participating in the ranking tournament!"

"Oh?"

Gao Lei laughed in anger, coldly saying, "Honestly, I, Gao Lei, have seen many arrogant people, but someone as arrogant as you is truly rare to see!"

"Since you won’t concede, then I’ll make sure you can’t take care of yourself!"

As he spoke, Gao Lei took a step forward and swung his fist at Lin Fan.
