WU DONG QIAN - KUN
Chapter 35: Initial Exchange

A low muffled sound rang out as the two fists collided. The resulting impact caused all the dust in the surrounding ground to be completely blown away by the wind.

The results that the crowd expected did not materialize. Instead, Lin Dong's body stood firmly embedded in the ground like a giant rock after he received the punch of Layer 9 Tempered Body Lei Li.

“Deng Deng!” (Sounds of footsteps)

The two retreated a few steps after the collision. Lei Li retreated two steps, while Lin Dong fell three steps. Overall, Lei Li's attack did not have the expected impact that the crowd had imagined.

"He really managed to take the hit ..."

As they stared at Lin Dong, who finally matched Lei Li, a shocked expression appeared on every member of the younger generation. After all, Lei Li had a legendary reputation in Qingyang City and many people speculated that within half a year, he would break through the Tempered Body 9th Layer and rise to the Earthly Yuan level. At that time, the power of the Lei Family would soar again.

Among the younger generation in Qingyang City, Lei Li was universally recognized as number one. However, today, this so-called number one was actually stopped by the younger members of the Lin Family. This shocking development caused many people's eyes to widen.

The facial expressions of Xie Yingying and Xie Ting changed as expressions of anxiety appeared in the eyes of the former. It seemed like this newcomer Lin Dong was truly capable.

In the blink of an eye, Xie Yingying calmed down. Although Lin Dong had unexpectedly withstood Lei Li's attack, it didn't mean that he had the qualifications to compete with Lei Li.

After all, Lei Li was at the 9th layer of Tempered Body. Therefore, compared to Lin Dong, who was only at the Tempered Body 8th Layer, he was still much stronger. Furthermore, in their previous exchange, Lin Dong had used martial arts while Lei Li had not!

Therefore, if they continued on and fought seriously, Lin Dong's loss was a definite conclusion.

“Penetrating the Ninth Echo of Boxing? Not bad…"

As Lei Li stepped back, he looked at Lin Dong with an astonished look. Immediately after, he smiled as he shook his head: “No wonder you can act so haughtily. It turns out you have some abilities. However, you may not be that lucky next time.”.

After he spoke, in Lei Li's claw-like hands, a thick light appeared as Yuan Power surged. It seemed like he was finally going to use martial arts to deal with his opponent.

After witnessing this scene, the excitement that Lin Xia and the others felt instantly turned into fear. Based on his expression, it seemed like Lei Li had finally gotten serious.

Lin Dong's expression was calm. He knew that there was a wide gulf between the Tempered Body 8th Layer and the 9th Layer. Even if he had used the tenth echo of the Penetrating Fist, he could barely match Lei Li. Furthermore, the latter had obviously practiced martial arts, and thanks to the powerful background of the Lei Family, he was probably quite experienced at it. Therefore, if they were to fight seriously, Lei Li would probably have a better chance of winning.

Despite this, Lin Dong was confident that even if Lei Li won, it would be an overwhelming victory!

“Huu..”.

Lin Dong sighed deeply as he stretched his ten fingers. He was anxious to find out how powerful his Magic Gate Seal technique was along with his full strength. Although it was only the first chapter of the Magic Gate Seal, which had been left behind by Lin Xiao and Lin Zhen Tian, it was, Lin Dong knew that the strength of this martial art became stronger after being refined by the Shining Shadows of the Stone Amulet.

More spectators gathered as they watched the heightened tension in the surrounding atmosphere. They were very interested to know, whether the upcoming talent that emerged from the Lin Family could match the legendary young genius Lei Li…

With his palm bent backwards, Lei Li's gaze towards Lin Dong turned increasingly fierce. The Lei Family was considered the most established faction in Qingyang City and they often hated other factions like the Lin Family who had suddenly invaded and came to power. Therefore, he knew that if he did not completely defeat Lin Dong, he would become a laughingstock.

“Hehe, this place is very crowded..”.

These ten figures were all young people around sixteen or seventeen years old. They were all wearing the same clothes and the image of the great sword dancing wildly was sewn on their chest area.

“Dojo Sword Raging.”

Lin Dong was slightly stunned when he saw these people. He recognized them based on the pictures on their shirts. They were from the Raging Blade Dojo, the third large faction that stood on the same level as the Xie and Lei Families.

Leading a group of friendly young people was a skinny young man. The young man had an extraordinarily large palm and was filled with scars that were clearly caused by his frequent practice using a sword. He first glared at Lei Li before he raised his thumb and smiled at Lin Dong: "You must be Lin Dong from the Lin Family? Your courage and insight are indeed quite good. ”

“Wu Yu, this is between me and him. Do not interfere in the affairs of others!!” Lei Li shouted at the smiling young man with a dark expression on his face.

"If I don't intervene, won't you guys act as if the entire Qingyang City is yours?" Wu Yun rolled his eyes as he replied mockingly. Looking at him, it was evident that he had a bad blood relationship with Lei Li and the others.

“Heh heh, Lei Li. Since you are itching for battle, how about I join in? ” As he smiled, Wu Yun replied as he looked at Lei Li excitedly and licked his lips.

Upon hearing these words, Lei Li's expression grew darker. He knew that he could defeat Wu Yun. However, the people from the Raging Blade Dojo were scoundrels and they liked to fight. Once they started fighting, they would fight to the end like crazy. Therefore, under normal circumstances, Lei Li wanted to avoid a fight with the latter.

“Wu Yun, Big Brother Lei Li doesn't want to fight with you. Getting around to cause trouble, is that your Raging Blade Dojo style?” Xie Yingying asked indifferently.

“I don't know if it's Raging Blade Dojo style, but it's definitely my style. If you have any objection, you can discuss it with me, maybe I won't accept it.” Facing the sarcasm in Xie Yingying's words, Wu Yun instead replied in seriousness while nodding his head.

Xie Yingying bit her red lips as her facial expression turned slightly black. Nothing seems to go his way today. First, he met the loud live speaker, Lin Dong, and now he had met a criminal. Therefore, anger filled his entire body.

At Wu Yun reply, Lin Dong involuntarily smiled. He seems to like this smart guy.

Lei Li's face twitched as his expression darkened.

“Alright, you all have caused quite a lot of trouble. It's time to go home, this is the place to do business. ”

As the atmosphere was completely disturbed by Wu Yun, a resigned voice sounded from the nearby building. When the crowd turned to look, they saw a middle-aged man standing on top and looking down at them. Behind him, stood a large crowd of burly men.

“The man is in charge of the square. His name is Wang Jin and he is a Worldly Yuan practitioner.” Standing behind Lin Dong, Lin Xia softly said. At this moment, he quietly sighed in relief in his heart. Now that this man has appeared, the curtain will finally close this drama.

After Wang Jing appeared, Lei Li's brows frowned upon realizing that today would be a difficult opportunity to make a move. As the surging Yuan Power disappeared in his palm, he turned to look at Lin Dong before coldly saying: "You're lucky today. Rest assured, when the Qingyang Hunt arrives, I will make sure to give "special attention" from you. Since I promise to take back the slap you gave Ting-er, I will make sure to keep my promise ... "

“Also, Wu Yun, I will definitely give you a good blow during the hunt. When that time comes, do not curl up..”.

As he finished, Lei Li sneered and turned to leave with Xie Yingying and the others. In the following days, he knew that once he advanced to the Worldly Yuan level, he could easily handle Lin Dong and Wu Yun together.

As he stared at Lei Li's back, Lin Dong slightly narrowed his eyes as a smile formed on his lips. Qingyang City Hunt, he was now starting to look forward to it ….
