Chapter 299: Yama Palace (I)
Early in the morning.
Li Mengxi and the others had nothing pressing to do, so after finishing their meal, the group headed straight for the plaza where the arena challenges were being held. People were coming and going, and it was far livelier than the first few days. Even before the official matches began, some participants had already stepped onto the stage to start fighting.
Standing beneath arena six, Li Wensi said with firm conviction, "Young Master Zhao, you will definitely succeed."
"Look, that monk is here again. Huh, it seems he does not intend to go up to arena two," Li Mengxi pointed toward the monk Puxuan in the distance and said with some surprise.
The monk Puxuan did not enter the plaza. Instead, he stood at the side, quietly chanting scriptures with a gentle expression on his face.
"His goal is not to accept challenges and obtain the title of one hundred undefeated victories. He is here to break other martial artists' winning streaks so that no one else can win and obtain the Buddhist sect's Great Strength Vajra Fist," Lin Zheyu glanced at the monk Puxuan and said calmly. He could tell that the Buddhist sect's conduct this time was indeed underhanded.
"That is truly despicable. If many of the genius disciples from the major sects had not been absent, someone would definitely be able to defeat him," Li Wensi said indignantly.
"By the way, if a match on the arena ends in a draw, does it still count as a consecutive win?" Lin Zheyu asked curiously. He had wanted to ask this question earlier, but had forgotten it for a moment.
"It counts. For a martial artist who steps onto the arena to challenge, only by defeating the arena holder does the challenge count as a success. A draw also counts as a failure. And to prevent people from deliberately dragging things out, the battle must be decided within fifteen minutes. Anything exceeding that time is counted as a loss for the challenger," Li Mengxi said.
He had challenged the arena before as well, but with his strength, he was nothing more than cannon fodder and lost quickly. In contrast, his elder sister Li Mengqi had nearly succeeded. Unfortunately, on the fifth day, powerful Marrow Refining realm martial artists began to make their moves. Li Mengqi was defeated by the Luo Family's genius, Luo Shaoning.
"Oh, then there is no problem. If there is no rule forbidding techniques from being passed on, then once I obtain the Great Strength Vajra Fist, I will show it to you," Lin Zheyu said with a smile.
If even a draw counted as his win, then with the Golden Goose Technique having just been raised to the Perfection of the eleventh stage yesterday, Lin Zheyu possessed strong confidence that he could contend with the monk Puxuan on the arena.
