Long Chen looked at Ye Lingkong; how could he not understand his thoughts? He wanted to drag Long Chen into this; his target wasn't Qin Feng, but himself.
This guy seemed extremely arrogant and somewhat scheming. He knew that on the court, no one was qualified to challenge Long Chen, because historically, no one had ever challenged the chief referee.
And the chief referee could use this as a reason to directly strip him of his right to continue competing, so he didn't dare to confront Long Chen head-on.
But he wanted to use Qin Feng to provoke Long Chen's anger, forcing Long Chen to give up his authority as chief judge and take the initiative to challenge him.
"Hey, what do you mean? You, as the Child of Destiny and a high-ranking prodigy of the Ye family, are you going to challenge a five-star Destiny Holder? Can you at least have some shame? A female disciple of the Jiang family stepped forward to speak up for Long Chen.
"I'm not challenging him, but sending a Ye family disciple to fight him. Who says he's a five-star destiny holder?
He clearly concealed the fluctuations of destiny. He could fool others, but he couldn't fool me, Ye Lingkong. Ye Lingkong sneered.
After Ye Lingkong said this, countless people looked at Qin Feng, but Qin Feng said nothing, quietly watching Ye Lingkong.
Ye Lingkong continued, "I heard the Dragonblood Legion is extremely arrogant. Surely they wouldn't dare accept a challenge of equal rank, right?" After
Ye Lingkong finished speaking, he just looked at Long Chen with an arrogant and domineering expression. The provocation was obvious to a blind person.
"This isn't a good idea!"
Long Chen didn't even glance at Ye Lingkong, continuing to trim his nails with a small knife and say, "The tournament is about to begin. Private grudges occupying public resources doesn't seem reasonable." "
Thinking Long Chen had chickened out, a referee from the Ye family immediately stepped forward and said, "Chief Referee, you're mistaken. If there's a conflict, it should be resolved on the spot. Only then can we create a harmonious competition environment, right?" "
When the Ye family referee said this, countless disciples immediately started to jeer, because Long Chen had said the same thing before.
Long Chen pretended to be troubled and said, "But if there are casualties, how can we still be harmonious?" You have to understand, the warriors of our Dragonblood Legion all fought their way out from mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
They weren't good at boring contests; they practiced killing techniques, and once they made a move, it was a matter of death.
I think so, better to forget it. Better to avoid trouble ..."
"Are you chickening out? If you back down, just accept it and forget it. I won't make things difficult for you, but I'll spare your subordinate's life." Ye Lingkong sneered.
Ye Lingkong spoke extremely rudely, but what he was humiliating was Qin Feng, not Long Chen directly. Therefore, there was no challenge to the chief referee, and Long Chen could not use that as an excuse to punish him.
Qin Feng kept a smile at the corner of his mouth, seemingly unaffected, but Long Ziwei, standing beside him, was furious, wishing he could fight for Qin Feng.
Long Chen sighed and said, "Looks like you're determined to take it on me. Let me ask all of you. If something goes wrong, the higher-ups will investigate ...."
"Don't worry, we all agree on this. If we hold them accountable, we all bear responsibility." A referee said coldly.
The other judges also echoed the agreement, expressing willingness to share responsibility. They also hoped the Ye family disciples would take down Qin Feng to vent their anger, since being suppressed by a young disciple made them feel very unhappy.
"Qin Feng, what do you say?" Long Chen pretended to look at Qin Feng, forcing a trace of worry into his expression.
"This concerns the honor of the Dragonblood Legion. I am willing to risk my life in battle. If I die on the arena, it would be my lack of skill, and I can't blame anyone else."
Boss, don't be sad, and don't avenge me. A true man is born into heaven and earth to live with dignity, to defend the honor of the Dragonblood Legion. I die without regrets. Qin Feng stood up, speaking passionately with determination to die.
Qin Feng's action moved countless people, especially the mercenaries, who were infected by his passion and their blood was ignited.
Wow, this kid's strength has skyrocketed, but his acting skills haven't dropped either. Long Chen himself was moved to tears by his heroic sacrifice.
"Alright then, since that's the case, once we're on the stage, life and death are determined by fate. You can't blame others. Ye Lingkong, who on your side will fight?" Long Chen looked at Ye Lingkong.
A man with a cold expression and a sword strapped to Ye Lingkong's side stepped forward. As soon as he stepped forward, many Ye family disciples let out excited screams.
Obviously, although this person is a Nine-Star Destiny Holder, he holds a certain reputation among the Ye family disciples and is certainly quite strong.
"Ye family, Ye Qing, come to witness the lesson. Whether it's the outcome or the death, it's a matter of life and death." The Ye family disciple introduced himself and stepped forward.
Long Chen looked at Ye Qing, a mocking smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. He was afraid that after killing, Long Chen would take out his anger, so he deliberately made the point silent.
"In that case, let's see the real trick on the stage! Life-and-Death Arena—Begin! Long
Chen finished speaking.
Without him having to act, a referee had already opened the arena, leading Qin Feng and the Ye family disciple onto the stage, as if afraid Long Chen might change his mind.
After leading the two onto the arena, a central light screen slowly rose, separating the two sides of the arena. The referee immediately withdrew from the arena, because it was a life-and-death arena and did not require the referee to be on stage.
"Quick, notify Sister Fengfei and tell her that someone bullied Long Chen and asked her to help." A female disciple of the Jiang family said anxiously.
"You don't need to say it, I've already notified you. I think it will be here soon."
The female disciples of the Jiang family chattered nonstop, and judging by their expressions, it was clear they weren't confident in Qin Feng.
On the arena, Qin Feng looked at Ye Qing across from him through the barrier. He showed no expression, didn't even release his aura, and hadn't entered combat mode.
"Foolish, do you think you can fool me like this? I won't fall for your tricks. Ye Qing looked at Qin Feng and couldn't help but sneer.
He thought he would be like that mercenary—deliberately feigning weakness at first, then launching a thunderous assault. Ye Xing had lost just like that, and now that his old trick was repeating, he couldn't help but scoff.
"Boom!"
Ye Qing shouted sharply, instantly activating a strange phenomenon, a vast aura radiating outward.
Long Ziwei sensed Ye Qing's aura and was startled. Ye Qing's aura was so strong, almost matching his. This person must be exceptionally gifted; otherwise, there wouldn't be such terrifying fluctuations.
"Chock clang"
Ye Qing drew his twin swords and bowed low, like a leopard, fully prepared for battle. It was easy to imagine that if he didn't attack, it would be a thunderous blow, leaving no chance for his opponent.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the light screen on the arena vanished. With a sharp shout, Ye Qing traced a strange arc across the arena like a ghost, appearing behind Qin Feng in an instant.
"What?"
Long Ziwei was shocked. Ye Qing's movement was too strange and too fast. As soon as he moved, he was already behind Qin Feng. Even he might not have reacted in time.
"Die!"Ye
Qing grinned viciously, his two long swords like fangs stabbing fiercely toward Qin Feng's back.
"Pfft" However,
the moment Ye Qing's sharp sword pierced Qin Feng's back, his figure turned into light smoke. Immediately after, a long sword pierced Ye Qing's back, protruding from his chest.
