Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 650 - 622: King of Chu
Everyone mercilessly mocked Lin Tian and some even cursed, completely lacking in manners.
However, just when everyone was despising Lin Tian, an unexpected change occurred.
"Crack!"
A loud sound suddenly erupted from behind Lin Tian.
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly turned around to look.
On the Holy Shield, a dense array of cracks appeared, multiplying and widening, each crack growing larger and more numerous.
"What the hell is going on?"
Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.
Then, with a loud explosion, a thunderous noise shook the entire room, causing it to tremble.
The next moment, the Holy Shield shattered into pieces.
It was Lin Tian who had smashed it with a single strike of his sword.
The Holy Shield was thought to be unbreakable, but now, Lin Tian had broken it.
"It's broken, it's really broken."
"So powerful, so strong!"
"What's with this Holy Shield, why did it break only now? What a delayed reaction!"
"Young man, so strong!"
...,....
Everyone had just been mocking Lin Tian, but now, they started praising him. It was unclear if these people had any shame at all.
Young Master Chu was practically dying of rage; he had intended to humiliate Lin Tian, but who could have expected Lin Tian to be so formidable and break the Holy Shield.
Breaking the Holy Shield meant that Lin Tian would receive one hundred million yuan, and if he wished, he could join the Qinglong Gang with the position of an elder sealed for him.
The former didn't matter to Young Master Chu, as the one hundred million wasn't coming from his pocket, but the latter was of great concern to him.
If Lin Tian agreed to join the Qinglong Gang, he would become an elder, a position superior to his, making killing Lin Tian as hard as reaching the heavens.
Nevertheless, Lin Tian had stepped on him, a grudge he couldn't fail to avenge. He dearly hoped that Lin Tian would refuse to join the Qinglong Gang.
Then, Young Master Chu asked somewhat nervously, "Young man, are you willing to join the Qinglong Gang?"
Young Master Chu stared at Lin Tian, fervently hoping he would say, "I don't want to."
Shortly thereafter, Lin Tian spoke, as Young Master Chu had wished.
"I've always been a carefree person and don't like to be restricted. I came to Wolong Bay just for fun and I'm not interested in the position of an elder. Besides, I admit that I lack the seniority and capability to fulfill the role of an elder in the Qinglong Gang."
After hearing this, Young Master Chu smiled secretly; this way, he would have a chance to kill Lin Tian.
Lin Tian smiled faintly, gazing at the Godslayer Sword, feeling extremely satisfied. It seemed that the Meteorite from Beyond and Huaxia's three-thousand-year-old technology were still superior.
Indeed, technology is the primary productive force.
There are three taboos in Wolong Bay: don't provoke Young Master Chu, the Holy Shield is unbreakable, and the Overlord is invincible.
Now, Lin Tian had provoked Young Master Chu and broken the Holy Shield, two taboos that had turned into possibilities. So for the Overlord's invincibility, Lin Tian might as well consider it solvable as well.
The three taboos, Lin Tian would turn them into three possibilities.
Young Master Chu said, "Someone, give him one hundred million yuan."
A man quickly brought a bank card containing one hundred million yuan, with the password 666666.
Lin Tian took the bank card and turned around to ask, "Young Master Chu, where is the King of Chu? I want to battle him!"
Young Master Chu was stunned upon hearing this; after breaking the Holy Shield, he still wanted to fight King of Chu.
The crowd, upon hearing this, was also taken aback and then began to advise him.
"Young man, King of Chu is very strong. He has tremendous strength; you are no match for him. Don't fight him."
"Right, young man, having broken the Holy Shield, you're already a hero among heroes. Don't push it."
"I've watched King of Chu's matches, and once, a master from the Western Regions challenged him one-on-one. He was a warrior from the Western Regions, but King of Chu knocked him out with just three punches and killed him,"
"Young man, hardly anyone can withstand even three moves from King of Chu. Step back. Fighting King of Chu results in death for nine out of ten people,"
... ...
Everyone was persuading with the same intent, urging Lin Tian not to challenge King of Chu, as nine out of ten challengers to King of Chu would die, and the remaining one would be crippled.
The casualty rate was too high.
Young Master Chu's face suddenly brightened with joy. Since Lin Tian wanted to challenge King of Chu, and knowing the strength of King of Chu, why not seize the opportunity to let King of Chu kill Lin Tian for him!
Young Master Chu stepped forward and said, "Kid, King of Chu is strong, but defeating him comes with great benefits. If you're willing, you could marry the Gang Leader's daughter, become the Imperial Son-in-law of the Qinglong Gang, second to none and above ten thousand people."
He deliberately used the title of Imperial Son-in-law to tempt Lin Tian, hoping Lin Tian would take the bait.
"Alright, I've decided. I'll challenge King of Chu!"
Lin Tian agreed to Young Master Chu. However, Lin Tian was no easy prey; he was a shark, and no hook could subdue him.
"Good, please follow me!"
Young Master Chu personally led the way, and Lin Tian followed closely behind, with the rest of the crowd following to witness this spectacular duel.
Young Master Chu led Lin Tian to the platform, where Lin Tian stood waiting for five minutes before King of Chu slowly emerged.
"King of Chu is coming out, look!"
Someone shouted, their face filled with excitement.
"Wow!"
Lin Tian looked at King of Chu and couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment.
His first impression of King of Chu.
Tall.
He was at least half a body taller than Lin Tian, roughly estimated to be two meters three.
Second impression.
Muscular!
He was shirtless, revealing dark, chiseled muscles. His physique was absolutely an inverted triangle, solid like a bull.
Third impression.
Fierce!
The moment King of Chu appeared, he exuded an aura of ruthless bloodshed. His big eyes glaring fiercely, one could tell he was brawny, simple-minded, and reckless in battle.
On a platform one person high, King of Chu leaped effortlessly into it, his weight of over three hundred pounds visibly shaking the entire platform.
"So it's you who wants to challenge me,"
King of Chu looked down at Lin Tian, speaking disdainfully.
Lin Tian was not short either, over one seventy in height, but compared to King of Chu, in both stature and intimidation, Lin Tian seemed like just a child.
He nodded, accepting what King of Chu had said.
King of Chu was very contemptuous, his lips slightly curving up as he pointed his thumb towards the ground at Lin Tian, an insult on the platform.
"King of Chu, King of Chu, King of Chu...!"
The spectators chanted repeatedly, clearly viewing King of Chu as a godlike figure, unbeatable by anyone.
Lin Tian felt rage, not just at King of Chu's underestimation but also at the crowd's.
He had to defeat King of Chu to prove himself.
On the platform, there were no rules, no referees, fight however you can to win. As long as you knock down your opponent, by any means necessary, you win.
"Dong!"
The bell rang, and the match began.
