Lin Yuan looked at Zhang Xiaobai seriously and said, “I started my own guild club. Coincidentally, my reserve team is in need of four people. The past can never be relived, but the future remains bright. Xiaobai, you still have five years to go.”
Lin Yuan turned and strode toward the dueling ground.
Zhang Xiaobai had participated in the S Tournament many times, but he had never had as much attention on him as was on Lin Yuan at the moment.
Zhang Xiaobai thought,
The past can never be relived, but the future remains bright…
At that moment, Zhang Xiaobai could practically see the sea of flowers and swarms of insects under the blinding light shining down from the dome.
However, Zhang Xiaobai was consumed by his worry for Lin Yuan.
To Lin Yuan, Zhang Xiaobai was a comrade with whom he had survived deadly battles.
This was the reason Lin Yuan tried to encourage Zhang Xiaobai with the same words that he had said after regaining his ability to sense spirit qi and contracted Morbius. It carried his hopes for the future.
Zhang Xiaobai felt the same way about Lin Yuan.
Liu Jie said to Zhang Xiaobai, who was still staring at Lin Yuan, “You can sit here when Lin Yuan goes to the dueling ground. There are currently only four people in the Dome Guild Club. I’m one of the main team members. You should think it through carefully.”
When Zhang Xiaobai sat down in Lin Yuan’s empty seat, Chu Ci greeted him and said, “Hello, I’m also a member of Dome Guild Club’s reserve team.”
Zhang Xiaobai had watched Chu Ci’s fight through the screen in the Extreme Guild Club’s rest area.
When he had witnessed Chu Ci’s fighting ability, he had thought to himself that as a defense-type spirit qi professional as well, he could not match up to Chu Ci even if there were two of him.
Although Zhang Xiaobai did not know who the other member of the Dome Guild Club’s main team was, the guild club could reach B-level given Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, and Chu Ci power.
Zhang Xiaobai greeted Chu Ci as well and noticed that her tone was quick and bright. She did not seem worried about Lin Yuan at all.
He knew that Chu Ci was Lin Yuan’s younger sister.
Lin Yuan and Chu Ci had video-called when they had been to the Endless Forest to collect snake venom. It was then that Zhang Xiaobai had seen what Chu Ci looked like.
Zhang Xiaobai could not help but ask, “Aren’t you worried that Meng Xu will behave savagely?”
Chu Ci shook her head. She understood Lin Yuan better than him and knew that he was a cautious person.
Lin Yuan might do things that he was not fully confident in, but he would not talk about it.
Since he said that he was going to be safe, it meant that he really was very safe.
Liu Jie was also not worried about Lin Yuan’s safety at all. Not only was Lin Yuan powerful on his own, but he also had a trump card in the form of a sacred source lifeform that he had yet not shown to the world.
He also had the Mother of Bloodbath and Endless Summer sitting in the audience.
If Lin Yuan was in any real danger, and the emergency helper was unable to intervene in time, the Mother of Bloodbath and Endless Summer would jump in immediately.
Even if Meng Xu was ten times more powerful, he was nothing in the face of the Mother of Bloodbath and Endless Summer’s power of law.
Meng Xu watched Lin Yuan and Zhang Xiaobai’s interaction, and his lips curled into a cruel smirk.
His eyes shone as he looked toward where the Savage Snake Guild Club members were sitting. He looked at a man with a head of curly hair who was currently playing with a small green snake.
When the man felt Meng Xu’s gaze on him, he blinked apathetically and spread his hands in a casual gesture.
There were hundreds of thousands of eyes on Meng Xu that would catch even the smallest of his movements.
At this time, the chatter in the Radiance Palace had increased manifold in volume.
Most of the voices expressed worry for Lin Yuan, while others sneered in resentment for Meng Xu and the Savage Snake Guild Club.
Huo Zeyuan’s expression was extremely sour.
He had been the main host and commentator of the S Tournament’s Allstar Match for many years. Naturally, he loathed that his work involved a harmful guild like the Savage Snake Guild Club.
Huo Zeyuan turned to whisper to the emergency helper next to him, “Senior Wang, if the difference in power is too large, halt the match immediately. Don’t let this Allstar Match be contaminated like last year.”
Senior Wang hesitated before nodding.
“If the spirit qi professional is in danger, I will interfere in advance. However, I can only step in to stop the fight between feys when there’s a possibility that one of them is going to die.”
Senior Wang kept some troubling thoughts to himself.
No one hates the Savage Snake Guild Club more than the emergency helpers.
Fang Duoduo looked at Lin Yuan striding toward the dueling ground.
“This lucky participant sure is unlucky. The Savage Snake Guild Club is becoming wilder and wilder. They’re disgusting! If I ever meet any one of their members, I’ll definitely beat them up in a fit of anger,” said Fang Duoduo to Long Tao.
Long Tao smiled mysteriously and replied, “Bad deeds lead to bad karma. This lucky participant might not be the unlucky one. Whether or not the Savage Snake Guild Club ends up causing trouble for themselves will depend on their actions in this challenge.”
The Moon Empress’ disciple was special, and she would kill anyone that displeased her.
The Savage Snake Guild Club had been toeing the lines of the S Tournament’s rules.
The Guild Alliance needed a legitimate reason to go after the Savage Snake Guild Club.
During a real fight, one could explain away many things by saying that it was a mistake.
However, when it was against a very important person, using a mistake as an excuse would no longer work.
When Fang Duoduo heard what Long Tao said, he was completely befuddled.
Fang Duoduo widened his eyes and paid close attention to the situation on the dueling ground.
Fang Duoduo did not expect this lucky audience member to choose a challenge battle instead of a guidance battle.
If it was a challenge, the Savage Snake Guild Club would be free to be as evil as they pleased.
Lin Yuan’s decision also shocked Huo Zeyuan. He faltered for a second before announcing Lin Yuan’s choice to the 200,000 spectators.
Lin Yuan was rather young and had an intense youthful aura, which made him appear even younger.
Huo Zeyuan felt that Lin Yuan was about 16 years old. He seemed to be of a similar age to the talented Chu Ci, who had just fought against Dragon Gate Guild Club’s Chen Hongfeng.
