# Chapter 2110: The Figure Who Stepped Onto the Battle Platform

"That waste of a bastard, I've wanted to torture you for a long time. You keep barking in front of me every single day."

The vulgar voice echoed continuously through the void, yet the crowd felt only shock. Especially the Yu family members—their hearts kept pounding, their eyes all fixed firmly on Tantai.

At this moment, Tantai seemed to be filled with terrifying explosive power all over his body, as if lion kings coiled around him. With just one punch, Yu Lin, the Yu family's number one genius who cultivated at the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion, was blasted backward, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. What made it worse was that before this, the Yu family had never truly paid attention to this iron-tower-like man, while Su Mu and Yu Lin had repeatedly directed sarcastic remarks at Tantai.

One could imagine how shocked the Yu family members were at this scene, and how ashamed Su Mu and Yu Lin felt. The person they looked down upon had sent Yu Lin flying with a single punch. Just moments ago, Yu Lin was arrogantly declaring he would kill Tantai.

Yu Xin's eyes were also wide open. She had guessed Tantai's strength might be considerable, but she never imagined it would be this formidable—one punch sending Yu Lin flying.

Even Yu Xin hadn't expected this. Yu Kun, Yu, and the others certainly hadn't either. At this moment, they still seemed unable to recover. Such a talented genius had been in their Yu family, yet they had neglected him for so many days, only having Yu Xin entertain him.

At this moment, a terrifying aura was wreaking havoc on Yu Lin's body, coiling around him. A dreadful presence surged outward, rolling toward Tantai like a tidal wave.

"Not convinced? I'll torture you until you are," Tantai said domineeringly. With a thunderous boom, his iron-tower-like frame trampled through the void. The crowd saw a terrifying lion king suddenly appear between heaven and earth, roaring madly yet silently. Only Yu Lin, standing before Tantai, felt the heart-stopping roar that threatened to shatter his body and rupture his soul.

The might of the Dao, carrying the supreme power of the lion king, caused every cell in Tantai's body to tremble, crackling and popping loudly. Before he even arrived, Yu Lin already felt a force capable of overwhelming the heavens.

As the Yu family's strongest Martial Emperor, Yu Lin's strength was also extremely terrifying. Under this situation of being crushed by supreme power, he still unleashed his formidable attack. But facing a rampaging Tantai, his Dao and his attacks were no longer enough to turn the tide. Once again, Yu Lin was sent flying. The sound of cracking bones rang out—he felt his arm had been shattered, hanging limply in the void, his face pale as paper.

This time, Tantai said nothing. His actions alone were proof enough.

Yu Lin's pride as a cultivator of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion had long been shattered. His heart seemed to question itself—a powerful figure who had casually appeared in his Yu family could crush him with absolute force. What utter humiliation.

"Whoosh..." The Yu family members drew in cold breaths. Even in a direct confrontation, the Yu family's number one young genius was still being thoroughly crushed by Tantai.

Tantai—an unremarkable passerby in the Yu family—possessed such power. And Tantai was Lin Feng's senior brother...

"Wait, that's not right!" At this moment, Yu Kun, Yu, and other Yu family members seemed to realize something. Their gazes slowly turned toward the clean-cut young man behind Tantai.

Tantai had been brought to the Yu family by Lin Feng, and he seemed to always follow Lin Feng's words. If Tantai was this powerful, then what about Lin Feng?

Thinking this, the Yu family members' hearts trembled slightly. Especially Yu, who had first met Lin Feng. Her beautiful eyes flashed with sharpness. Lin Feng—yes, the Lin Feng they had overlooked. What was his strength?

If Lin Feng's strength was even comparable to Tantai's, he would also be a genius. Yet his treatment in the Yu family had been repeatedly downgraded.

Tantai seemed not to have vented all his anger. He cursed, "A bunch of assholes with eyes on their asses. What bullshit Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion? You lost, and then another shameless bastard shows up. A bunch of trash thinking they're the best under heaven. You, Yu Lin, and that Su Mu too—all just wastes."

With that, Tantai's gaze turned to Que on the battle platform. He said coldly, "You've already lost the third battle. Are you going to fight the fourth?"

Que frowned slightly. Although Tantai was quite formidable, having defeated Yu Lin, he was far from qualified to act arrogantly before him.

The others' pupils contracted. So the Yu family also had disciples of the Heavenly Terrace—disciples of Mu Chen.

The Yu family members now understood as well. Tantai and Lin Feng were both people of the Heavenly Terrace. How ridiculous—they had invited Hou Qinglin and the others to the Yu family as guests, yet ignored Tantai and Lin Feng, who were already there.

Jing Xiaoyue, however, wasn't too surprised. Her gaze fell on Lin Feng behind Tantai. Having clashed with Lin Feng once before, and after what happened later, she had guessed that Lin Feng was also a disciple of Mu Chen. Her heart felt somewhat comforted. That man—his group of disciples were all astonishingly talented. Even if he really couldn't survive, he had lived a life worth living. With such an outstanding group of young men, for his sake, they made the entire Green Mountain City tremble.

"I said, let's combine the next two battles. You can send two people. If you want to come up, that's fine too. I'll show you what the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion really is," Que said calmly, cold intent spreading out. If he didn't act now, and another figure like Jing Shou appeared, there might not even be a fifth battle. So, rules would be broken. In his eyes, there were no rules—at least, no rules in Green Mountain City could bind him.

Different levels of people followed different rules in different situations. The rules he should follow were those of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion. Green Mountain City didn't have rules that could bind him.

"This battle's victory isn't that important to us," a voice said at this moment. The speaker was Hou Qinglin. Hearing his words, everyone's expressions froze slightly. Their gazes all turned to him. Was Hou Qinglin planning to back down?

"This battle should have ended three days ago. For the sake of my master, my Heavenly Terrace brothers gave the Jing family a chance. I thought that a single mine vein, in exchange for just my master, would be something the Jing family would never refuse. However, I was wrong. The Jing family was thinking about changing the outcome of this battle, not admitting their defeat. And so, today's battle came about."

Hou Qinglin's voice was very calm as he continued, "Today's battle should have naturally determined victory and defeat. But you of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion, like the Jing family, think too highly of yourselves. Once again, you refuse to admit your defeat. Instead, you choose this despicable method—interfering in a battle that hasn't yet concluded—to prove how proud you are, to rely on strength and ignore rules. You think doing so makes you look impressive, but in reality, you're just slapping your own faces again and again."

"Let me ask: if you lose again, where will the face of your Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion go? Will you again use the prestige of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion to pressure us? And will the Jing family still refuse to hand over the array mine?"

Hearing Hou Qinglin's questioning, a thought arose in everyone's hearts. If Que lost again, would the Jing family hand over the array mine?

No one could be sure. Since the Jing family could break their agreement once and invite the geniuses of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion, they might also break the agreement if they lost. Before, they might have feared the power of the three families. But if they added the power of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion, would the Yu family dare to demand the Jing family's mine?

But would Que lose?

Obviously, no one thought so. Que didn't think so. The people of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion didn't think so. The Jing family and the Yu family didn't think so either.

Que was a figure close to an Invincible Martial Emperor.

"The people you just defeated, including me, don't even have the qualifications to stand before Senior Brother Que. Of course, you don't either," said one of the people from the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion, standing on the back of the demon beast behind Que, speaking coldly.

"How ridiculous. You actually dare to dream of defeating Que. This is the funniest joke I've heard in recent years," another person said slowly. In their eyes, could a Que who was close to an Invincible Martial Emperor lose?

"Before the battle, you of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion thought none of you would lose. Yet you lost again and again, to the point of resorting to despicable means," Ruoxie of the Heavenly Terrace said calmly, a cold light in his eyes.

"Having been slapped in the face once, and still thinking the same way—this is indeed very funny," another person said.

The people of the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion and the Heavenly Terrace stood on opposite sides of the battle platform. A vast aura surged toward each other. The confrontation between the Jing family and the other three families seemed to have evolved into a confrontation between the Heavenly Array Mysterious Mansion and the Heavenly Terrace.

A fierce wind swept through the space, and the crowd felt a suffocating pressure.

"Just answer me: fight, or not?" Que said calmly.

"Of course we'll fight. And one person is enough," Hou Qinglin replied. The gazes of the Heavenly Terrace members were so firm, so confident.

"Boom!" Tantai stepped through the void, walking toward the direction of the Heavenly Terrace members. The crowd's expressions froze slightly. One person to fight—Tantai?

But Tantai stopped in the direction of the Heavenly Terrace members, causing them to show puzzled expressions. If not Tantai, then who from the Heavenly Terrace would fight?

At this moment, they seemed to have overlooked an unremarkable figure slowly walking out from the Yu family's direction, gradually moving toward the Heavenly Terrace members.

"Hm?" Yu's pupils contracted slightly as she stared at the figure walking out, her brow furrowing.

The Yu family members' gazes all froze on that spot, watching the figure walking out.

Yu, her beautiful eyes also fixed on that back.

Watching that figure walk further and further forward, even the Heavenly Terrace members couldn't help but turn their gazes toward him. The crowd finally noticed this unremarkable figure walking out from the Yu family's camp. His speed wasn't fast, but it seemed to carry a certain rhythm, causing everyone's gazes to gradually fix on him, watching as he stepped onto the battle platform step by step.

"It's him," Jing Xiaoyue's eyes froze slightly. The one fighting Que was actually him.

"Lin Feng," Yu Xin's little heart trembled slightly. Lin Feng had stepped onto the battle platform. All the Heavenly Terrace members watched him ascend. Everything seemed as it should be, so natural. She once again recalled Tantai's words: you will know what kind of person he is.

Yu, watching Lin Feng; Yu Lin and Su Xiao, watching Lin Feng—this young man who never argued with them, who was always so calm, was being truly noticed by them for the first time, and he made their hearts race.

Finally, Lin Feng stood on the battle platform, opposite Que. But his gaze wasn't on Que. Instead, it was on the several young figures on the back of the demon beast behind Que. He said calmly, "You will see that this joke is not funny at all."
