Chapter 260 - 260: 260: Entering the Top Eight

As she spoke, An Ning gently stroked Lin Zhen’s hair, just like when comforting a child, making Lin Zhen somewhat at a loss whether to cry or laugh.

“Ah Ning, since I dare to participate, I still have some confidence. My spiritual power has just advanced to the Diamond Level.”

“What? Diamond Level spiritual power?” An Ning herself is a spiritual mind master, but her spiritual power was only at Dark Gold Middle Stage, which was already remarkably rare and talented. She knew how difficult it was to advance spiritually and didn’t expect Lin Zhen to reach Diamond Level.

That was something only possible in the Star Realm, and many people in the Star Realm hadn’t reached Diamond Level yet, such as Old John, who hadn’t advanced to Diamond Level even after a hundred years of cultivation.

Lin Zhen’s eyes flickered, and the brilliance of the dark gold-colored aura revealed itself, stunning An Ning.

“Diamond Level spiritual power must be quite powerful, but… but your body…”

“I have the Radiant power to heal, and as far as I know, Ah Ning’s mastery of the Water Element is excellent, and it also has a very good healing effect. Even if it can’t be fully recovered overnight, it should be enough if more than half is recovered. ”

Seeing that An Ning still seemed worried, Lin Zhen smiled at her: “Besides, even if I lose in the virtual environment, the severity of my injuries in the real world won’t increase, so what are you worried about?”

“But…but…”

“No more buts, Ah Ning, let’s start now. I hope my luck is good enough to not encounter strong opponents in the first few rounds so I can have more rest time.”

Lin Zhen hugged An Ning and put her in his arms. An Ning’s cheeks turned red, and she hit Lin Zhen twice. Then she gently placed her hands on Lin Zhen’s chest, and the surging Water Element began to quickly heal Lin Zhen’s injuries.

Under the strong Water Element, Lin Zhen’s electric particles also kept flickering with a faint glow, healing his injuries.

Clearly, An Nings comprehension of the Water Element resonated even more than Lin Zhen’s Radiant power. Lin Zhen had learned too many things, certainly not as fast as An Ning and Su Mingyue’s single-minded learning of one kind of elemental energy.

With the recovery of both the light and water healing powers, Lin Zhen began to improve little by little.

With the arrival of the second day, the War God’s Knockout elimination rounds continued.

However, people were surprised to find that Lin Zhen had not withdrawn from the competition and had chosen to continue participating.

Although Lin Zhen’s performance in Paris yesterday had already proved his strength to the world, even barely able to fight against the Star Realm, his injuries determined that he would not be able to achieve anything in the arena anymore.

Many people thought of his insistence on participating in the competition as a kind of faith, a purely honor-driven battle. In fact, he had no chance of winning the championship, and it was even questionable whether he could advance to the top sixteen.

All the competing War Gods regarded Lin Zhen as an easy target.

What if you are strong? Old John’s blade had already struck your internal organs, and you had also been whipped several times, suffering serious external injuries. You were carried onto the flying saucer by An Ning, continuing to compete is just courting humiliation.

So during the draw, almost everyone hoped that they could face Lin Zhen in the first round, which would essentially guarantee their entry into the top sixteen.

Soon the draw results were out, and in the first round, Lin Zhen faced Alice, a

War God from the European Union!

Alice had also advanced to the top thirty-two. Yesterday, in the battle in Paris, when Lin Zhen rescued An Ning, no one bothered Alice and Hansen, and in the end, people didn’t know where they went.

After the draw, the other War Gods sighed at Alice’s good fortune, but Alice announced a shocking decision.

She forfeited the match!

With just one simple sentence, Lin Zhen advanced to the top sixteen!

“I am Ai Er from the European Union, and I now want to announce something. Alice and Hansen left Paris Base City yesterday, betraying the European Union.

They are traitors of the European Union and are in league with Lin Zhen and An Ning. According to reliable information, they also went east yesterday, most likely to join Lin Zhen and others.”

Some War Gods from the European Union, United States, and Sand Russia vehemently denounced Alice and Hansen’s betrayal, but then Hansen also posted a message online.

“It’s not that we wanted to betray the European Union, it’s that the European Union, because of Chris’s issue, wanted to vent their anger on Alice and me. You all wanted us dead, but we weren’t going to wait around for it to happen. I think Lin Zhen and An Ning would be more than happy to help us obtain Hua Xia citizenship.”

Both sides have expressed their opinions, each holding their own, but people generally think that Lin Zhen had taken advantage of the situation. Alice was An Ning’s friend and deliberately let him win, allowing him to advance to the top sixteen in an uncontested manner. By the time Lin Zhen advances to the next stage, he will most certainly be eliminated.

Even those who set up betting had no faith in Lin Zhen. When he advanced to the top thirty-two, his odds were adjusted to five to one. But today, as he advanced to the top sixteen, his odds dropped to ten to one.

The top sixteen matches were played quickly, with masters from all sides advancing one after another. Su Mingyue eliminated another War God from the African Union and advanced to the top sixteen.

In the top sixteen elimination match, Lin Zhen drew Su Mingyue as his opponent.

After the draw, Su Mingyue also voluntarily gave up the match. Gongsun Du even scolded Su Mingyue for this, but he knew that Su Mingyue would never be able to bring herself to face the injured Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen also felt bitter about it, though Yue’er had good intentions, it brought some troubles to him.

Reaching the top eight, Lin Zhen once again attracted a wave of cursing from the world.

Yesterday, An Ning was beautiful and outstanding enough to attract countless men’s gazes, and today Su Mingyue’s actions have indirectly confirmed her romantic relationship with Lin Zhen.

This made countless men who admired Su Mingyue turn red with jealousy, cursing Lin Zhen to suffer a terrible defeat in the next round. Moreover, no more women will participate in the upcoming battles. How could Lin Zhen, a guy who relies on his looks, depend on anyone else?

After the two victories without fighting, Lin Zhen had gained quite a lot of rest time. An Ning was always by his side, healing his wounds. More than ten hours of continuous treatment, combined with his radiant power, finally restored more than half of his injuries. He could endure as long as the battle wasn’t too fierce.

The draw for the top eight soon came out.

Huo Luofu from Sand Russia vs. Bogba from Africa.

Duke from the United States vs. Moro from Brazil.

Ai Er from the European Union vs. Yunas from India.

Lin Zhen from Hua Xia vs. Shah from India.

Seeing that he was finally paired with Lin Zhen, Shah even laughed out loud on the spot, and immediately made a bold statement on the Internet.

“Lin Zhen, the guy who relied on women to advance, must be very reluctant to meet me, but the arrangement of fate is often magical. He once arrogantly eliminated my brother Omar, and the True God gave me this opportunity for revenge. I want to tell Lin Zhen, Lin Zhen, you can continue to hide under women’s skirts, and I will not laugh at you. Whether it’s Su Mingyue or An Ning, the taste under the skirts must be sweet. Do you want me to let you win and then we can switch? I don’t mind hiding inside for a while, haha!”

As soon as these words came out, An Ning, who was treating Lin Zhen’s wounds, suddenly changed her expression.

“Shah’s mouth is so annoying. Lin Zhen, don’t get angry because of this. He’s deliberately trying to provoke you.”

Lin Zhen took a deep breath: “I Imow his tricks, but he really annoys me. He’s insulting you and Yue’er. I will definitely punish him.”

“I believe you, but don’t be too careless. Shah is a Dark Gold Late Stage Spiritual Mind Master, known as the Great Wizard of India. He is already 75 years old this year, the oldest among all the competing War Gods, and his spiritual power is the strongest. Not only does he have a High Grade Psychic Defense Star Tool, but his attack methods are also extremely tricky.”

“What kind of tricks?”

“Have you heard of spirits?”

Lin Zhen was a bit surprised. He knew something about spirits, which are energy forms of people’s soul power, also known as ghosts.

But ghosts are basically useless to martial artists, as they have strong willpower and considerable spiritual power, and are difficult to be influenced by ghosts. In the world of Star Realm, ghosts are worthless. However, he didn’t expect to hear about spirits now.

“This man is not only proficient in spiritual power, but also in flame power. He kills people with his spiritual power, takes their skulls, and traps their souls within them, making the souls unable to leave and form spirits. These can be controlled to influence people’s brain nerves under his control, which is a unique attack method. In these battles, Shah didn’t even move a step and advanced smoothly.”

“Is he really that powerful?” Lin Zhen asked.

“Yes, he even said that if it weren’t for Huo Luofu’s solidified spiritual power, he would definitely have been the champion of this competition. He wouldn’t need to move at all to win the championship, after all, spirits are made of energy and are not suppressed by Huo Luofu’s Gravity Field.”

“That’s indeed not easy to deal with. But don’t worry, An Ning, I will take care of him. ”

An Ning nodded, “I believe you. You indeed need a fight to prove that you didn’t reach the top eight by relying on women. Alice and Yue’er have been told that you have advanced to Diamond Level Spiritual Mind Master, and they are definitely not your opponents if they fight you. Actually, you are the strongest.” “Hehe, my Ah Ning knows me best.” Lin Zhen smiled.

“Go away, who is your Ah Ning?” An Ning blushed a bit, her long eyelashes fluttering, but she never stopped her work. A stream of Water Element was injected into Lin Zhen’s wound, almost causing the scab to fall off.

Her delicate fingers gently touched Lin Zhen’s wound, and she wrapped another layer of gauze around him. An Ning exclaimed with joy, “It’s almost healed! Lin Zhen, as long as you don’t exert yourself too much, the wound won’t burst open.”

“Even if it bursts, it doesn’t matter, as the injuries in the virtual world won’t carry over to reality.”

Lin Zhen stood up, picked up the virtual helmet, and prepared for the top four match.

An Ning also stood up and said to Lin Zhen, “I’m going back home. I haven’t been back since I returned to Ice City.”

Lin Zhen nodded, somewhat reluctant to let An Ning go.

However, An Ning said to Lin Zhen, “I’ll be back later to cook a delicious meal for you to celebrate your victory.”

Looking at the confident An Ning, Lin Zhen suddenly whispered in her ear, “I think Shah might be right about one thing.”

“What?” An Ning looked at Lin Zhen’s close face, her cheeks unconsciously blushing, looking stunningly beautiful.

“It must be sweet.”

An Ning was stunned, and then her face was covered with crimson. Wanting to hit Lin Zhen but unable to, all she could do was stomp her foot angrily and turn around to run out of Lin Zhen’s room.

Watching An Ning leave, Lin Zhen put on his helmet with a smile, and with a

flash of white light, the arena appeared before him..
