Chapter 2204 - 2201: The Elimination Round Begins!

Chapter 2204: Chapter 2201: The Elimination Round Begins!

Lin Tian suddenly sat up and stared at the Miss, making her blush with embarrassment and her heart race.

"You... don’t misunderstand, I just wanted to see why you’re such a lazy bug, sleeping so soundly and not waking up." Miss quickly explained, trying to suppress the panic in her heart.

Lin Tian showed a slight smile, but his tone was serious: "Misunderstand what? Can the Miss explain more clearly?"

"Nothing... nothing." Miss felt uneasy, constantly questioning herself about why he woke up just then, and whether he found anything.

Lin Tian raised an eyebrow and laughed: "Last night, I actually had a dream, in which there was a beautiful girl. Together we watched the clouds rise and fall, and the tides ebb and flow..."

A wonderful scene was depicted by Lin Tian, making Miss’s eyes appear somewhat dazed, as if she were in it.

"We were holding hands, walking through the mall, past cinemas, and finally arrived at the river. Under the most beautiful starry sky, we couldn’t help but kiss each other. That kiss was so real, it seemed to have left a fragrance." Lin Tian touched his lips with his fingers, smiling as he looked at Miss.

Miss’s pretty face turned bright red as she glared at Lin Tian, pretending to be angry: "You’re truly a big lecher, always dreaming about harming other girls."

With that, she turned and tried to leave the room in a hurry, and as she reached the door, Lin Tian called out with a laugh: "That girl wasn’t someone else; it was you, Miss."

Miss froze, stopped her steps for a moment, but then left the room even faster, afraid Lin Tian would notice her smiling face.

She came out and saw two old men in the courtyard having tea, and Ling Shuiyao was also there, seemingly waiting for her to come out. Miss’s just-recovered complexion turned red again, this time caught red-handed.

"Mr. Ling, Mr. Zhuge, morning." The usually decisive and resolute Miss seemed like a shy little girl, somewhat uneasy.

"Morning, Lin Tian hasn’t woken up yet? Well, he seemed to have stayed up quite late last night." Old Man Ling chuckled.

These words made Miss want to find a hole to hide in, out of embarrassment.

Ling Shuiyao quickly got up, pulled Miss aside, and asked quietly yet curiously: "Sister Manxue, you were in Lin Tian’s room all night?"

"Yes." Miss nodded, feeling she had no choice but to admit it, but fearing a misunderstanding, she quickly added: "I was just practicing in his room."

"Practicing?" Ling Shuiyao was half believing, half doubting, asking quietly: "Lin Tian, that big lecher, didn’t do anything to you?"

"No, we were really practicing." Miss felt resigned and embarrassed, this embarrassment naturally directed at Lin Tian.

Ling Shuiyao still wanted to ask more, but Lin Tian’s voice interrupted: "Ladies, don’t get too caught up in your whispers. Shouldn’t you lift me out first?"

Lin Tian’s hearing was incredibly sharp, especially as Ling Shuiyao’s whispering voice couldn’t be too low.

"Coming, coming." Ling Shuiyao’s eyes lit up, remembering something, she grabbed a wheelchair and ran into Lin Tian’s room. Seeing Lin Tian neatly dressed, she couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed.

"Little girl, what’s with that look? Didn’t see me disheveled and the bed in disarray, so you’re disappointed? You’re quite young; why do you have such... inappropriate thoughts?" Lin Tian seeing the girl’s expression, knew what she was thinking.

Little La Jiao snorted, defiantly said: "What’s inappropriate, I’m already an adult, and I kindly brought you a wheelchair, yet you dare to slander me!"

Lin Tian clapped his hands on the bedpost, flew up, and accurately landed in the wheelchair. It turned out, the seat was quite soft.

"Hmm, not bad, Miss Shuiyao has thought this through." Lin Tian praised.

"Hmph, you should know, and should thank my aunt. This wheelchair was prepared by her." Ling Shuiyao grumbled, then she walked behind Lin Tian, pushing the wheelchair out.

Seeing Lin Tian come out, Miss’s face was still slightly red, not daring to meet Lin Tian’s eyes.

After breakfast in the courtyard, the three left for the contest venue.

After the three departed, Zhuge Cai Zhe smiled slightly and said: "Today’s competition should be quite interesting."

"You sensed it too?" Ling Xuesong was not surprised and said: "I wonder what they practiced last night, their aura is somewhat special. It seems she’ll surprise everyone."

With that, the two old men exchanged a glance, both looking forward to it.

As for Lin Tian, he ’drove’ the wheelchair down the mountain. When they came to the stairs, the two beauties helped lift him over. When the three arrived at the mountain top arena, many ancient martial artists had already gathered.

Many ancient martial artists came forward to greet Lin Tian, some had received his treatment, some admired his character, some revered his strength.

Lin Tian always acted freely, not learning from those wealthy family disciples how to act noble, so he got along well with these independent ancient martial practitioners. The people from the ancient martial families watched, each with their own thoughts.

As for those thoughts, Lin Tian always chose to ignore them, first greeting Ling Zishan and Wang Wanxi, then returning to the ’unremarkable’ corner from yesterday.

Of course, this remote corner, because of his presence, had already garnered attention.

Xiao Manxuan and Yun Xiaotian were already waiting there, the two young ladies actively came to push Lin Tian’s wheelchair, enviable to others.

"Was elder sister practicing at the back of the mountain last night?" Xiao Manxuan blinked, asked with concern.

"Sister Manxue was..."

Ling Shuiyao wanted to say something, but Miss was embarrassed, quickly answered: "Yes, I was practicing at the back of the mountain, there were some problems I needed to comprehend."

Seeing Miss’s nervous look, Lin Tian chuckled inwardly.

A chubby guy squeezed through the crowd, ran to Lin Tian’s front, face full of joy: "Good morning, Mr. Lin."

"Morning, you look cheerful, is your father alright?" Lin Tian guessed, as the chubby one’s thoughts were all on his face.

"Mr. Lin is truly amazing to guess so accurately! My father can get out of bed and walk now, thanks to you. Oh yes, are Mr. Lin’s legs alright, why are you in a wheelchair?" Huang Xiaopang was simple-minded, saw Lin Tian’s ’tool’ change, thinking Lin Tian’s situation got worse.

Lin Tian patted his shoulder, had to explain again: "It’s fine, focus on watching the contest, observe other’s ancient martial skills to know how to handle them."

Dong...

The sound of a hearty bell rang, as if a signal, making everyone who was still chatting fall silent. As this marked the arrival of a critical stage in the ancient martial competition, the elimination rounds.

Everyone only had one chance, sometimes luck was also very important.

"Mr. Lin, do you think Miss Xiao won’t face Ji Zimo in advance?" Huang Xiaopang voiced the many people’s questions and worries.

Lin Tian did not answer immediately but glanced at the big shots above, showing a smile, and said lightly: "Do you think this randomness is truly random?"
