Chapter 423 - 419 Song Ge
In the afternoon, Qiu Yong originally wanted Ling Chen to stay in his room and continue resting, but upon hearing that there would be a competition for a grand prize in the afternoon, Ling Chen could no longer sit still. He knew that this afternoon was the real highlight. For the grand prize prepared by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, many experts would make their move, and Ling Chen didn’t want to miss such an event.
At Ling Chen’s repeated requests, Qiu Yong reluctantly agreed to take him to the venue.
Upon arriving at the venue and as everyone settled into their seats, Ling Chen immediately noticed that many people’s gazes were focused on him, pointing and discussing.
"See that? That’s Ling Chen, the guy who claims he wants to have a showdown with Shuiyan on the stage."
"He’s really overestimating himself. Shuiyan is ranked in the top five of the Newcomer List; he hasn’t even made it into the top ten. What qualifications does he have to challenge Shuiyan? He’s just asking for trouble."
There were others with a different opinion, saying, "You can’t say that. Ling Chen is after all one of the Eight Eccentrics. Each of the Eight Eccentrics possesses unique skills. You saw yesterday’s competition too, where Yuan Yun defeated a Dragon List expert. Perhaps Ling Chen truly has some real abilities."
Ling Chen ignored the surrounding discussions and sat quietly, waiting for the martial arts competition to begin.
After a while, the host Zhou Qi stepped onto the stage, looked around at the audience with a smile, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, as the Heavenly Mechanism Chaos Battle progresses, we are approaching the most exciting match. Whoever wins this afternoon’s match will receive a premium Heavenly Mechanism Pill provided by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion. You all know the value of the premium Heavenly Mechanism Pill, so I won’t say much more. Remember, there’s only one chance; please cherish it."
After speaking, Zhou Qi turned and stepped down from the stage, waiting for the first contestant to come up.
By this time, everyone’s gaze in the venue was on the Dragon List experts. It was clear to everyone that the Dragon List experts were the main attraction of the afternoon; others were just there to add to the excitement.
