Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

"You lost!"

The instant Lin Ye's voice fell, time seemed to freeze.

The entire open-air balcony fell silent once again.

Including Ma Qingfeng and Jia Yi, several War Gods, everyone was dumbfounded, not daring to believe their eyes.

But the fourteen gleaming throwing knives, only a hair's breadth away from the necks of the three personal guards, had already made the outcome of this contest clear.

Each S-grade throwing knife exuded a sharp, cold light, making it impossible to look directly at its edge.

"Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮!!" Casting a glance at the throwing knife near his neck, Beast said somewhat unconvinced:

"I'm not convinced. You relied on spiritual power to win unfairly. I want to compete with you in strength fairly and squarely!!"

Everyone: "........."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Even Hong was speechless, and black lines appeared on his forehead.

"What, do you have the guts to compete with me?"

Even with a throwing knife at his throat, Beast still said unwillingly.

"No, no, no!!"

"I refuse to compete with a loser, you're not good enough!" The corners of Lin Ye's mouth curled up in an arc, and then he looked at Beast, speaking unhurriedly:

"You can't even beat me, yet you talk about competing with me in strength.

Could it be that on the battlefield, I can pull a dead person up and fight them, to see who is stronger?"

Lin Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes looking down.

His words were full of sarcasm.

"Pfft!"

Huang Shaoying couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Seeming to realize that laughing out loud in this situation was inappropriate.

He silently turned around, the smile on his face becoming even more exaggerated.

After speaking, Lin Ye slightly raised his head to look at Hong, winking at him.

"They lost, can you give me the winner's reward from earlier first."

Hong: "..."

For a moment, this world's number one powerhouse was rendered speechless by Lin Ye.

"Take it!"

A streak of green light flew to Lin Ye's side, and he grabbed it, then gave it to Xu Qi with lightning speed.

"Keep this safe for me."

"What are you going to do?" Xu Qi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Get you some more good stuff!" Lin Ye looked at Xu Qi, a hint of a smile appearing in his eyes.

Turning around, his smile instantly became restrained, and he said solemnly:

"Since you want to challenge me, it's not impossible."

"Hmm?" Beast looked at Lin Ye, his eyes shining.

"But there needs to be a price." Seeing that Beast had already taken the bait, Lin Ye's expression became even calmer.

Beast's eyebrows shot up, and then he sneered: "What price? Wasn't the Herb Spirit already given to you?"

"The Herb Spirit just now was only the price for the previous time. If you still want to challenge a group fight, you must come up with a new price."

Looking at the strong man in front of him, Lin Ye wanted to get some benefits from him.

After all, he was Hong's personal guard, and he must have a lot of good things.

"Price? I don't have any Herb Spirits... but I have a bottle of Life Water!!"

As he spoke, Beast glanced at Hong. The latter nodded slightly, which was considered tacit approval.

"What about you two? Do you want to come at me together? As long as you win, the Herb Spirit will be returned to you!" Lin

Ye had a harmless smile on his face, speaking with sincerity.

Ice Mountain shook her head: "...I'm not skilled enough, defeat is defeat!"

"I admit, you are more powerful than us." A charming and cold voice came, and she also had no intention of fighting again.

After all, Lin Ye's throwing knife was still at her neck, and she could clearly feel the chill.

"That's good, I won't look for you then!" Lin Ye's gaze fell on Beast, like a hunter who had encountered prey.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With a thought from Lin Ye, these throwing knives flew straight into the pockets of his combat suit, as smooth as if they were extensions of his arms.

"Today is the highest-level celebration banquet of Great Xia, fighting and killing is too unsightly,

Besides, there is no deep hatred between us, there is no need to fight to the death." Lin Ye said unhurriedly.

"That's right!"

Hearing this, Beast nodded in agreement, and said: "Tell me, how should we compete?"

"How about this, since War God Beast is best at strength, why don't we compete in strength?"

"Compete in strength? You want to compete with me in strength?" Beast almost laughed out loud.

As the strongest of the three personal guards, his strength was personally trained by Hong.

The others in the venue were also surprised, they had more or less heard how terrifying Beast's strength was.

The strength and toughness of his body were comparable to ordinary Elementary Level Lord monsters, and even surpassed them.

Behind Lin Ye, Jia Yi and the other War Gods' gazes never left the former.

Hearing his words, everyone looked at each other, a strong look of doubt in their eyes.

But in the end, they all chose to trust Lin Ye.

"Yes, it's a contest of strength!"

Lin Ye moved his arms and said slowly: "Simply put, you and I each throw a punch, fist against fist, whoever can't hold on loses!"

"Haha... hahaha, I agree!" Beast seemed to have heard the best joke in the world.

He glanced at Lin Ye's thin and pathetic arms, unable to see any signs of strength.

In his memory, no War God had ever dared to directly compete with him in strength.

If Lin Ye relied on his powerful spiritual power, he might still be extremely afraid.

But competing in strength... that would be purely asking for trouble!

"Are you ready? Let's start when you're ready!" Lin Ye looked relaxed and at ease.

Beast roared, shouting: "Ready!"

Everyone only heard thunder ringing in their ears, and their bodies trembled involuntarily.

Beast's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his right arm swung up, the already thick arm suddenly becoming a circle larger.

Blue veins bulged out, as if they would explode in the next moment, this arm, which contained almost all of Beast's strength, slammed towards Lin Ye's chest.

Beast's full-strength strike, without reservation, was full of anger and unwillingness.

Whoosh whoosh!

At this moment, everyone around only felt a strong wind blowing in their faces,

Within fifty meters, everyone was forced back a long distance by an irresistible force.

Fortunately, the rooftop was large enough.

Just as Beast's fist was one meter away from his face, Lin Ye's right arm, which was hanging by his side, suddenly slammed forward.

His punch was as fast as lightning, and no one present, except for Hong, could see the trajectory of his arm and fist.

Without charging up, and without using hidden force, Lin Ye relied entirely on the instantaneous burst of power. Using his own fist, he solidly received Beast's full-force punch.

In the next instant, his fist directly hit the fist that was at least three or four times larger.

Rumble!!!

The two fists brought about a violent sound comparable to a bomb explosion.

At the moment of the fist collision, a grim smile flashed across Lin Ye's mouth.

Competing in strength with a Peak War God, who is overestimating their own strength!
