Ge Liang climbed to his feet, his eyes bloodshot, and roared at Lin Bai like a wild beast.
"Ge Liang, hand over the spirit stones."
Lin Bai said this with a nonchalant tone.
"This match was my mistake, I was careless, it doesnāt count. Letās have another match!"
Ge Liang, in an attempt to save face, said to Lin Bai.
"Alright, then come up and have another match!"
Lin Bai smiled at Ge Liang.
Ge Liang was taken aback; Lin Baiās words almost made him die of anger on the spot.
Lin Bai clearly knew that Ge Liang couldnāt beat him, yet he still wanted Ge Liang to come up and fight.
Ge Liang was in a dilemma. If he went up to fight, he wouldnāt be able to beat Lin Bai. But if he just handed over the spirit stones, he would lose face.
"Lin Bai, donāt be so arrogant! I, Sun Deshui of the Divine Alliance, will challenge you!"
At that moment, a martial artist leaped from the crowd onto the stage.
"Lin Bai, you dared to kill a Divine Alliance martial artist during the trial. Today, I will seek justice for our Divine Alliance martial artists!" Sun Deshui said with a grim expression as soon as he stepped onto the stage.
In the Spirit Sword Sect, almost no one dared to kill a Divine Alliance martial artist.
And when Lin Bai did, it spread quickly within the Divine Alliance.
Almost eighty percent of the Divine Alliance disciples secretly vowed to kill Lin Bai to avenge their fallen comrades and gain glory within the Divine Alliance.
Lin Bai glanced at Sun Deshui, who was also at the First Level of True Martial Realm.
"Do you bet on spirit stones? This is a sparring competition for new martial artists, which the Spirit Sword Sect has tacitly approved. Senior martial artists who step onto the stage must put up spirit stones as a bet." Lin Bai asked curiously.
"Bet! Twenty thousand spirit stones, do you dare to fight?" Sun Deshui said angrily.
Seeing this, Ge Liang immediately said, "Lin Bai, as long as you dare to fight Sun Deshui, if you win, I will immediately give you ten thousand spirit stones. But if you lose, hmm, donāt even talk about spirit stones anymore!"
"Alright, as long as you bet on spirit stones."
Lin Bai smiled at Sun Deshui.
"Lin Bai, donāt be impulsive." Nan Li Dao shouted.
"No problem, this waste of space came up to seek humiliation, Iāll just fulfill his wish." Lin Bai smiled calmly.
"Attack!"
Lin Bai said.
"Take this! Flying Dragon Slash!"
Sun Deshui didnāt waste any words, he drew his longsword from his back and swung it with a force that seemed to tear the sky, aiming at Lin Bai.
"Scram!"
Lin Bai, enraged, swung his sword with a fierce strike, shattering Sun Deshuiās sword momentum, and then delivered a powerful blow to Sun Deshuiās body.
With a thud!
Sun Deshui let out a muffled groan, spewed a mouthful of blood, and was sent flying off the stage.
"What!"
"One move!"
"Just now, it took three moves to defeat Ge Liang, but this time it only took one move!"
"This person is formidable, he has gained experience from the previous matches and is becoming more proficient in combat."
Many senior disciples were surprised and exclaimed.
For the first time, they felt the terror of Lin Bai.
The happiest were the new martial artists.
Lin Baiās two victories greatly boosted the morale of the new martial artists.
"Brother Lin Bai is mighty!"
"Brother Lin Bai is so cool, he has given us new martial artists a boost!"
"So cool!"
Sun Deshui landed off the stage, his face filled with disbelief: "This canāt be, how could I lose!"
"I am at the First Level of True Martial Realm, you are only at the Ninth Level of Martial Dao, how could you defeat me with one strike?"
Sun Deshui roared in anger.
"You donāt believe it when I call you trash, hand over the spirit stones!"
Lin Bai said.
Seeing Sun Deshuiās defeat, Ge Liangās face turned ashen. He gritted his teeth, took out ten thousand spirit stones from his storage bag, and threw them onto the stage.
Sun Deshui, looking at Lin Bai with anger, also threw out twenty thousand spirit stones.
Harvesting thirty thousand spirit stones, Lin Bai was quite pleased.
"I wonder if thirty thousand spirit stones are enough for me to break through to the True Martial Realm."
Lin Bai muttered to himself.
"Is there anyone else who wants to come up and fight?"
After much thought, Lin Bai did not leave the stage but asked the surrounding senior martial artists.
The rules set by the Spirit Sword Sect only allow senior martial artists at the First Level of True Martial Realm to step onto the stage.
If they exceed this, it is considered a violation and will be punished by the sect.
At the First Level of True Martial Realm, Lin Bai could easily defeat them.
Lin Bai had thought for a long time and felt that thirty thousand spirit stones might not be enough. This was a good opportunity to gather more spirit stones, so Lin Bai naturally couldnāt let it go easily.
"Is Brother Lin Bai still going to fight?"
"Two victories, and heās still not satisfied?"
Many new martial artists felt that Lin Bai was getting too arrogant.
Some new martial artists even mocked: "This Lin Bai is too unreasonable, two victories are enough, yet he still wants to fight."
"If he suffers a loss, it will damage our new martial artistsā reputation!"
Lin Bai ignored the voices of these martial artists.
"Is there any senior martial artist who wants to step onto the stage?"
"Is there no one among your senior martial artists who can fight?"
"Are you all just eating shit to reach the First Level of True Martial Realm?"
Lin Bai stood on the stage, mocking them.
"Arrogant!"
"Rogue, who do you think you are!"
"Talking big, Iāll defeat you!"
At that moment, another figure leaped from the crowd.
"Itās Brother Zhang Hua!"
"Great, Brother Zhang Hua has stepped in, Lin Bai is bound to lose."
"Indeed, Brother Zhang Hua has been at the First Level of True Martial Realm for a year, deeply rooted, and is among the top ten in strength among all disciples at this level."
"This Lin Bai is definitely no match for him!"
Many senior martial artists had great confidence in Zhang Hua.
"Before you even have any hair, you dare to be so arrogant. Watch me defeat you today!"
Zhang Hua, stepping onto the stage, said with disdain.
"Are you planning to win with your mouth? Speak up, how many spirit stones are you betting?" Lin Bai said with a smirk.
"Ten thousand spirit stones, if you have the ability, come and take them!"
Zhang Hua sneered.
"Alright, Iāll take these ten thousand spirit stones."
Lin Bai suddenly struck with his sword, the sharp sword light piercing like a ray of light, fiercely devouring all darkness.
Such a powerful strike was something Zhang Hua did not expect.
"Primordial Palm!"
Zhang Hua instantly launched a counterattack, striking out with a palm.
With a thud, the first clash between the two did not benefit either side.
"You donāt seem very strong." Lin Baiās previous strike was just a simple probe. After confirming Zhang Huaās strength, a glint of intelligence appeared in Lin Baiās eyes.
He swiftly rushed forward, his ghostly movements bringing him close to Zhang Hua in an instant.
He thrust his sword with a powerful strike.
"Bad!"
Zhang Hua cried out, quickly forming a true qi shield to block Lin Baiās sword.
"You donāt have the cultivation to block my sword!"
With a thud.
Zhang Huaās true qi shield shattered, and he was sent flying off the stage.
"Hand over the spirit stones!"
Zhang Hua landed, still dazed, and Lin Bai had already extended his hand for the spirit stones.
"How is this possible, this canāt be!"
Zhang Huaās eyes flickered with incomprehension.
He still hadnāt recovered from the shock of how he ended up off the stage.
"Lin Bai, todayās defeat, I will surely avenge in the future!" Zhang Hua said, threw down ten thousand spirit stones, and left the square.
Three victories in three matches!
The new martial artists looked at Lin Bai with admiration and joy.
"Is there anyone else who wants to step up?"
Lin Bai asked the martial artists in the square again.
"Heaven! Brother Lin Bai, are you still going to fight?" The new martial artists exclaimed in surprise.
Yeguxing and Nan Li Dao exchanged an incredulous glance.
"How powerful is this person?"
Nan Li Dao and Yeguxing felt immense pressure.
They knew Lin Bai was strong. During the trial, Lin Bai almost killed Yexin, and they knew of his strength.
But they never expected Lin Bai to be this strong.
Martial artists at the First Level of True Martial Realm were no match for him!
