Chapter 139: Shocking the Audience! The Bald Man Charges at Qin Muyin

Chapter 139: Shocking the Audience! The Bald Man Charges at Qin Muyin

[This is your randomly assigned opponent for the third round. Would you like to accept the challenge?]

[Please make your decision within 30 seconds! Failing to respond in time will be considered as forfeiting the match.]

[Note: If you choose to forfeit the challenge, it will be treated as a withdrawal, resulting in immediate elimination.]

On the rooftop.

As soon as Chen Ye saw the opponent displayed on the holographic projection, his expression instantly changed...

There was no way he didn't recognize the woman in that photo!

She was a familiar face on TV and mobile phones.

Qin Muyin!

The strongest person in the country!!

Although she was technically at the sixth stage, she was, in reality, a top-tier expert at the seventh stage!

Chen Ye never expected this.

For the third round of the elimination matches, they actually assigned him such a high-level opponent??

Was his university's martial arts team really that unlucky?

Or were they being deliberately targeted by the Secret Realm?

Then, on the holographic screen, Chen Ye clicked "Accept Challenge!"

Even if his opponent was the top expert in the country, he couldn't back down.

If he loses, so be it!

At least he could see how big the gap was between him and the country's strongest...

At this moment.

Zhao Zheng and Teacher Liu had also confirmed their opponents.

"Teacher Liu, do you know a fat guy named 'Chen Guohan'?" Zhao Zheng asked.

The third round of the elimination matches had already started displaying the opponents' names.

Upon hearing this, Old Liu's face slightly changed, and he replied, "I've heard of him. He's an experienced fourth-stage expert... What's the matter? Zhao Zheng, did you get matched with him in the third round?"

Zhao Zheng nodded, his expression becoming somewhat serious.

As a veteran fourth-stage expert, he was certainly not an easy opponent.

Old Liu thought for a moment and said, "When you get on stage, just concede! Chen Guohan has a strength-type talent and uses heavy weapons. He doesn't hold back when attacking... At your current level, fighting him is meaningless and not worth the risk."

Zhao Zheng didn't try to act tough and nodded again, saying, "Alright."

This wasn't about being afraid.

It was just that Zhao Zheng, at his current level, was indeed still far from being able to compete with a fourth-stage expert.

Going into a fight knowing you can't win isn't bravery; it's foolishness.

This is a sparring match, not a life-and-death battle!

However, if he concedes, it would mean another member of the martial arts team would be eliminated...

Old Liu then thought of Chen Ye and asked, "Chen Ye, who is your opponent this round?"

"Qin Muyin!" Chen Ye responded calmly.

As soon as this name was mentioned, everyone was taken aback.

"Holy crap!" Cao Yu immediately exclaimed, "You got matched with Miss Qin for the second time in a row? Is the Secret Realm deliberately messing with our martial arts team?"

Everyone else's expressions were equally grim.

In their eyes, there was no way Chen Ye could win.

"We're done for! Our martial arts team is down to just Teacher Liu," Ren Qianqian said, her pretty face full of despair.

Unexpectedly, Old Liu, who heard this, gave a bitter smile and said, "I know my opponent as well. He's also at the fourth stage, and I'm not confident I can beat him..."

In the first two rounds, a lot of weaklings had already been eliminated.

Starting from the third round, the chances of encountering strong opponents were indeed much higher.

Hearing this, everyone fell into complete despair...

Tang Zichen suddenly spoke up, "Chen Ye, how confident are you?"

Chen Ye didn't hide anything from his little wife and replied with a bitter smile, "Maybe twenty or thirty percent."

Tang Zichen encouraged him, "Give it your best shot. If it doesn't work out, just concede. It's not a big deal."

Chen Ye nodded.

Their conversation left the others bewildered.

"Wait a minute!" Cao Yu was shocked. "Old Chen, you didn't forfeit?"

"No, I want to give it a try."

"What the heck! Are you crazy? That's Miss Qin we're talking about, the number one in the country!"

Cao Yu couldn't believe it. "Do you realize she could probably knock you out with just a wave of her hand?"

Zhao Zheng added, "Senior, don't act on impulse. This level of opponent isn't someone we can handle."

Old Liu also said, "Chen Ye, your courage is commendable, but it's misplaced..."

Chen Ye quickly responded, "Alright, alright, I know. I'll concede as soon as I get on stage!"

But conceding was not an option for him.

If there was a chance to get a good ranking, Chen Ye still wanted to give it a shot.

Ren Qianqian couldn't help but say, "Does this mean our martial arts team is about to be completely eliminated?"

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

At that moment, the first wave of matches on the arena had already begun.

On Arena 1 was a familiar face—Zheng Shuilong.

This guy was pretty lucky. In the third round, he was once again matched with a weakling. At the moment, he had his hands in his pockets, completely indifferent to his opponent.

He was acting very arrogantly!

...

About half an hour later.

It was Zhao Zheng's turn to go on stage.

His opponent was a giant, over two meters tall, a massive fat guy with large iron chains wrapped around him, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Zhao Zheng didn't concede immediately. Instead, he tried to rely on his agility to outmaneuver the fat guy.

Unexpectedly, the fat guy was also very agile...

After Zhao Zheng got kicked by the fat guy and was almost sent flying, he finally gave up and conceded.

Then, an hour later, Old Liu fought his opponent for ten minutes before ultimately losing by a narrow margin, as judged by the Secret Realm...

At this point, the entire martial arts team had only one member left—Chen Ye.

The duration of the third round had already been compressed to three days.

At around two in the afternoon, the elder sister-in-law, Gao Ye, also arrived on the rooftop.

She mainly came because she heard there were quite a few exciting matches in the third round and wanted to watch.

Just as Gao Ye sat down, Chen Ye suddenly stood up.

"It's my turn, Arena 10!"

Everyone was taken aback.

Cao Yu originally wanted to say a few words of encouragement, but as soon as he thought about Chen Ye's opponent, he couldn't bring himself to say anything...

Getting matched with an opponent like that.

It was truly despairing!

...

Rooftop 9527.

When the members of the enforcement team saw Qin Muyin stand up, they were all taken aback.

"Huh? Captain? Your opponent for the third round didn't concede?" Steward Jiang asked in surprise, "Who would be that bold? Chairman Ba?"

In his view, only a few sixth-stage experts might have the qualifications to challenge Qin Muyin.

"No," Qin Muyin responded calmly. "It's Chairman Chen's son."

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.

At that moment, the portal had already appeared.

Qin Muyin stepped into it without hesitation.

...

When Qin Muyin appeared on the arena, she immediately drew countless gazes.

"Whoa! Look at Arena 10, it's the goddess Qin!"

"Is the goddess Qin finally going to take action?"

"It's the third round, and this is her first time stepping into the arena, right?"

"Yeah! The opponents in the first two rounds probably got scared and gave up immediately."

"If it were me, I'd concede too! Facing an opponent like that, who wouldn't feel hopeless?"

"Who's the opponent this time? To have the guts to challenge the goddess Qin, they must at least be a sixth-stage expert, right?"

"Look, her opponent is appearing… Huh? That bald guy looks familiar."

At this moment, Arena 10 was attracting nearly all the audience's attention.

No one cared about the other arenas anymore...

On Rooftop 19.

Seeing his son appear, and realizing that his opponent was Qin Muyin, Chairman Chen's face instantly turned grim and darkened.

Some people wanted to ask Chairman Chen whether his son could stand up to Qin Muyin, but upon seeing his expression, they held back.

"That rascal, how unlucky can he be?" Chairman Chen cursed.

Ba Liming didn't say anything, just watched the arena intently.

He had a feeling that the little bald guy might surprise everyone!

...

On Arena 10.

Chen Ye was sizing up Qin Muyin.

This was his first time observing the country's top expert at such close range.

To be honest, Qin Muyin's appearance wasn't bad at all. With sword-like brows and starry eyes, she exuded a heroic and spirited aura, fitting the image of a legendary heroine from ancient times.

If Qin Muyin weren't attractive, no one would have called her the goddess Qin.

However, her overwhelming strength overshadowed her looks!

Everyone knew her as an unparalleled expert.

Few commented on her appearance.

Seeing that Chen Ye showed no signs of conceding, Qin Muyin finally gave him a second glance.

But that was all.

She had no interest in exchanging words with Chen Ye.

Just as Qin Muyin was about to use telekinesis to throw Chen Ye out of the arena, Chen Ye suddenly had a quick idea and said:

"Wait, my shoelace is loose!"

He immediately squatted down, pretending to tie his shoelace.

Qin Muyin was slightly taken aback.

Instinctively, she glanced at Chen Ye's feet...

Now's the time!!

Chen Ye seized the opportunity and made his move instantly.

He hadn't really been tying his shoelace.

He was gathering strength!!

"Boom!"

The entire arena suddenly erupted with a deafening roar!

Everyone felt a sharp shock in their eardrums!

The stage beneath Chen Ye's feet instantly collapsed, the ground upheaved, leaving a massive crater.

Chen Ye's body, propelled by the immense recoil, accelerated to its maximum speed in an instant!

His figure was like a cheetah gifted with godlike speed, darting towards Qin Muyin like a flash of lightning!!

"Buzz——"

The piercing sound of a sonic boom echoed.

It made everyone in the arena feel as if they had been transported to an air force base!

Opposite him, Qin Muyin.

Seeing the sudden force Chen Ye unleashed, her eyes widened in shock.

Her mouth slightly opened, her beautiful face full of surprise.

As the country's top expert, Qin Muyin's reaction speed was naturally fast.

In an instant, she regained her composure, her eyes lighting up brightly, her whole body radiating a dazzling green light.

She was activating her telekinesis!!

But she was still a step too slow...

The distance between the two was less than a hundred meters.

At Chen Ye's current speed, he could cover a hundred meters in just 0.6 seconds!!

He had first distracted Qin Muyin, then caught her off guard, finally closing in on her before she could react.

At that moment.

Chen Ye had a great chance to kill Qin Muyin.

But he didn't.

There was no deep-seated hatred between them, and the country still needed someone like Qin Muyin to anchor its stability.

Chen Ye wouldn't kill her just to advance in an elimination match.

Even though Qin Muyin always tried to break up his relationship with Tang Zichen, Chen Ye never resented her.

From her perspective, she was likely doing it for Tang Zichen's sake.

After all, Chen Ye's apparent talent was a trashy C-level, even his own father had once thought he was unworthy of Tang Zichen.

Besides, Qin Muyin was a true hero of humanity!!

She had risen to fame after slaying countless powerful monsters and was a cornerstone of Xia Country's safety.

It's no exaggeration to say that thanks to her, Xia Country could enjoy its current relatively peaceful environment.

For that reason alone, Chen Ye had no reason to kill her!

So, Chen Ye's method of attack...

Was to tackle her!
