th to south. If they want to flank and shoot us, they'll have to get to the very north. I'm going to charge north. Once I have them under control, I'll signal you, then you go out and finish them off!...With Wang Lin's arrival, the young man was almost instantly surrounded at the corner of the ring. There was nowhere to run, and the young man hurriedly shouted.

"You've fallen for that boy's trickery! He's the mastermind behind this!"

Everyone stopped their steps and looked at Wang Lin. Wang Lin’s face was filled with grief and despair, and he cried out in anguish.

"You, you bastard! Even at the brink of death, you dare to slander me! All the people present are renowned figures in the martial world, their martial arts extraordinary and their wisdom profound."

Their existence not only showcases the spirit of chivalry but also carries forward the righteousness of the Jianghu. It is precisely because of them that the martial arts world can flourish!

"They are my role models, and my admiration for them is like a vast and endless river. How could I possibly say something so outrageous!"

Hearing Wang Lin's flattery, everyone present felt particularly comfortable. This flattery hit their hearts directly, and they all nodded and smiled at Wang Lin.

And that young man hadn't expected Wang Lin to say such righteous words. He stared with wide eyes, pointing a finger at Wang Lin.

"You!...You!..."

"What are you Your lie was exposed in front of everyone, and now you can't even speak"

Wang Lin looked down upon the young man, then turned to the crowd and said loudly.

"Esteemed seniors, this person not only insults your skills but also your intelligence! I am incompetent, willing to be a vanguard and seek justice for you all!"

Please, seniors, lend your strength to this junior!

Without waiting for a response, he charged straight towards the young man.

"Good brother, you are righteous! I cannot let that scoundrel run rampant. I will help you!"

"Thanks to my little brother for clearing our name. Huang is incompetent, and I am willing to help you!"

"We wish to help our younger brother!"

With a few people stepping forward to help, the rest of the crowd, regardless of their thoughts, dared not provoke public anger and all chipped in to lend a hand.

This situation Wang Lin hadn't expected. He had thought the best outcome would be that everyone would let him and the young man have a one-on-one duel.

In fact, it's not really Wang Lin's fault. Most people practice Chuanwu, and the reputation of Chuanwu has become quite bad in recent years among the common folk.

When it comes to traditional martial arts and modern combat, almost no one believes that traditional martial arts can win. Even if they do win, some people believe the victories are rigged with actors. There are many similar cases of "traditional martial arts masters" being exposed as fakes online, among which the most famous is Master Ma.

When Wang Lin rushed to the young man's face, after just a few moves, the others who came to support also arrived one after another, surrounding the young man tightly. They punched and kicked him relentlessly, and in no time, they beat the young man into a pulp.

Some people still want to vent their frustrations on young people, beating them up as if they were trying to release all the pent-up anger they've been holding onto for years.

Wang Lin was worried that if they did this, they might really offend the person to death. He kicked the young man hard in a hurry, and the young man flew out with a cry, landing outside the ring.

Those who held grudges saw this and couldn't help but express regret.

The poor young man had already been beaten unconscious at this point and didn't see their expressions, otherwise, he would have been so angry that he might vomit blood.

Wang Lin looked at Zhou Rong as he carried the young man away for treatment, his eyes cold. Zhou Rong also looked at Wang Lin with icy coldness, his hatred sky-high.

This time, Zhou Rong will lose all control over his industry for the next five years. Maybe he won't even need Wang Lin to take action, as his former enemies will come knocking on his door.

And because he relied on a large sum of money to cooperate with Daredevil, now that he has lost it, he's just trash in Daredevil's eyes. Not to mention, one of Daredevil's men was defeated by Zhou Rong.

Looking at Zhou Rong's dejected departure, Wang Lin retracted his gaze. In his eyes, Zhou Rong was just an insignificant pawn, someone he could eliminate at any time if he wished.

He turned his gaze back to the people on the stage, and respectfully bowed. "Thank you, seniors, for your help. That fellow has been eliminated, so we can continue our practice!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, returned Wang Lin's greeting, and then each sought out their opponent.

"Lao Huang, I've been looking down on you for a long time, let's have a match!"

"Zhuge, you insignificant wretch! Come and fight me!"

"Old Wu! I'm going to beat you up and make you call me father!"

After what just happened, the wind direction completely changed. Everyone seemed to have forgotten that they were vying for a spot. They stopped forming groups and instead started sparring with each other individually, trading blows and insults as they went.

For a time, shouts, curses, and screams filled the air, like entering a vegetable market. The scene was quite chaotic.

As for Wang Lin, he once again stood alone in the corner. For some reason, no one came to bother him, and he was happy to have the peace and quiet. He kept observing everyone's moves.

Ten minutes later, only ten people remained standing in the ring.

After the chaos ended, ten people advanced to the field and officially participated in the competition!

Zhou Zhihao's voice rang out at the right time, and everyone on stage stopped their movements and stood still. They looked around, scanning the faces of their future opponents.

"The morning competition is over. Recover your strength as soon as possible. The Zhou family martial arts test will officially begin at 2 pm. There will be two Zhou family members participating, a total of 12 people, competing in a challenge!"

"The specific rules will be officially announced during the afternoon written exam!"

After Zhou Zhihao finished speaking, he turned to look at the chief on the platform. The chief stood up, walked to the front of the platform, and nodded slightly to the crowd below.

"All of you are masters of martial arts, with profound martial arts skills. Thank you all for coming to participate in my Zhou family's martial arts test. As a token of my appreciation, the Zhou family will host a grand banquet at the restaurant today at noon. I hope you will grace us with your presence."

Upon hearing this polite address from the head of the Zhou family, everyone present clasped their fists in a gesture of gratitude.

The chieftain’s gaze swept over the crowd, lingering for a moment when he saw Wang Lin. His eyes were filled with excitement, then he smiled faintly and spoke in a loud voice.

"Everyone, work hard to recover your strength and treat your injuries. I hope the afternoon's martial arts test will be even more exciting!"

Having said that, his eyes turned to Zhou Zhihao. Zhou Zhihao understood and picked up the microphone: "The first round of martial arts test is over. I hope everyone will be on time this afternoon. You can disperse now!"

After the elders on the high platform had left, the crowd also dispersed.

Zhou Qi ran excitedly to Wang Lin's face, hugged him tightly, and hugged him even tighter.

"Haha, brother, you're too strong! You played everyone like puppets. Big bro admires you!"

"Heh heh, brother, you flatter me. I'm ashamed!" Wang Lin effortlessly broke free from Zhou Qi's embrace, a shiver running down his spine.

Zhou Qi seemed completely unfazed by Wang Lin breaking free, and he continued rubbing his hands together. "What my older brother said is true from the heart. This time we have a very good chance! Let's go! Back to the guest room! Get some rest!"

"Great!"

He is indeed quite tired, although he fainted for several hours last night, he ran all night after waking up. Now, all he wants is to find a bed and have a comfortable rest.

"By the way, I transferred 200,000 to your card yesterday. Did you receive it"

"Have you passed I didn't notice, wait a moment, let me see."

Wang Lin excitedly took out his phone and started searching. This was the first time in his life he had seen so much money, and it was natural for him to be excited. Zhou Qi looked at his expression and also smiled slightly.

In a short while, Wang Lin put the happy phone back in his pocket and turned to look at Zhou Qi, revealing a sweet smile.

"Thanks, bro! Received it!"

"Don't look at me like that! It's creepy!"

Both burst into laughter and walked towards the guest room side by side.

“This morning, Zhou Xing came to find me. He sent me a message last night, and that's why I called you. It was probably an apology. He came to apologize to me again this morning.”

"Are you going to speak for him"

"How is that possible If it weren't for your good fortune, I would have failed this competition again. How many times in a lifetime can one have five years"

Wang Lin just let out a soft "Mmm" and then fell silent.

"But at the end of the day, he was forced into it. Zhou Rong threatened his family, and he had no choice but to obey Zhou Rong's arrangements. I hope you can spare his life."

Back in the room, Wang Lin washed up briefly and then flopped onto the bed, ignoring Zhou Qi who stood beside him.

Zhou Qi saw this scene, sighed helplessly, and slowly withdrew from the guest room.

"Stephen Chow! You're on your own!"ao Yue and quickly put on his clothes before leaving.He didn't know that the moment he left, Xiaoyue opened her eyes and looked at the note Wang Lin had left on the bedside table. She smiled wryly and...
