Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 534: Chapter 535: Accepting an Interview

Li Muqing stepped down from the ring, and at that moment, Bai Ling approached with a smiling face.

”Muqing, I’ll avenge you today,” Bai Ling said with a flattering expression.

However, Li Muqing replied coldly, ”Thank you for your kindness, but it’s unnecessary.”

With that, Li Muqing hurried off from the martial arts arena.

Everyone thought Li Muqing left out of embarrassment, but the real reason she departed in haste was her urgency to apply a hot compress to her chest.

The competition continued, and today’s matches were clearly more exciting.

Now it was Bai Ling’s turn to jump onto the ring, facing a young man with a knife.

Upon seeing Bai Ling, the young man with the knife conceded without even fighting.

Zhao Xiaohua’s performance remained strong, still defeating her opponent in one move.

Tang Bao’er faced an opponent ranked seventh on the list of foreign fighters.

After a fierce battle, Tang Bao’er emerged victorious.

Xu Ye and Zhang Yu also easily defeated their opponents, and just like that, the top eight were decided.

Lin Chen’s gaze was fixed on the spectator stand, and he suddenly realized a problem, Zhao Xiaowen hadn’t appeared at all.

The main reason Lin Chen participated in this tournament was because of Zhao Xiaowen, so if Xiaowen wasn’t here, his participation in the Kunlun Grand Tournament seemed rather meaningless.

”Where has Xiaowen gone?” a feeling in Lin Chen’s heart persisted, suggesting something strange about this Grand Tournament.

After a fierce competition, the final eight were Lin Chen, Zhao Xiaohua, Bai Ling, Xiao Jian, Tang Bao’er, Zhang Yu, Xu Ye, and Wu Dong.

Following the draw, the matchups were Lin Chen against Xu Ye, Bai Ling against Zhang Yu, Zhao Xiaohua against Xiao Jian, and Tang Bao’er against Wu Dong.

Looking at the draw results, Zhang Yu wore a glum face, ”How could I end up facing the freak Bai Ling!”

Xu Ye was equally downcast, ”My opponent is not much better than yours; isn’t Lin Chen just as much of a freak?”

However, Zhang Yu soon showed a strong desire to fight, ”Lin Chen, rest assured, I will give it my all. Even if I can’t win, I will still probe his strength for you.”

Lin Chen smiled, ”Zhang Yu, with the way Bai Ling’s strength has increased so quickly, he must have had some fortuitous encounters, so be careful and fight within your limits.”

Zhang Yu nodded, ”Don’t worry, I want to see for myself just how strong Bai Ling really is.”

At this moment, Tang Bao’er approached with a cheerful smile, ”Xu Ye, are you still planning to fight Lin Chen?”

Xu Ye, seeing the smile on Tang Bao’er’s face, chuckled awkwardly, ”I have to fight, I too want to know how big the gap is between Lin Chen and me.”

Tang Bao’er clearly looked dissatisfied with Xu Ye’s words and, with a beaming smile, grabbed a bottle of iced tea, ”You must be hot after the fight, Xu Ye brother, maybe you should drink some beverage instead.”

Xu Ye, feeling grateful for Tang Bao’er’s apparent concern, but upon seeing the bottle of iced tea in his hands, his expression drastically changed, ”Bao’er, what did you add to this?”

Caught with her cunning ploy, Tang Bao’er’s cheeks reddened, ”It’s nothing much, just a laxative. At most, you’ll have diarrhea for one night.”

Hearing Tang Bao’er’s words, Xu Ye’s face turned green, thinking that a night of diarrhea was rather excessive.

”You don’t like iced tea, Xu brother? I’ll go buy something else for you,” Tang Bao’er said with a smile.

Damn, Tang Bao’er is an expert at using poison, Xu Ye realized. It was clear that Tang Bao’er didn’t want him showing up on the field at all.

Xu Ye said with a look of grievance, ”Bao’er, we’re friends, aren’t we? You don’t need to be so harsh!”

Tang Bao’er earnestly replied, ”I joined this competition specifically to clear all obstacles for Brother Chen; since you’re an obstacle, of course, I would take action against you.”

Zhao Xiaohua also nodded incessantly, ”Xu Ye, I happen to have a fight tomorrow, why don’t we spar a bit?”

Watching Zhao Xiaohua’s fists crackling, Xu Ye gave an awkward smile, ”Nevermind, I think I’ll go back to sleep.”

Saying that, he ran off without looking back.

Zhao Xiaohua could be described as a tomboy, her strength so formidable that it seemed bottomless.

Tang Bao’er’s mastery of poison was phenomenal, and Xu Ye knew that if he stayed any longer, he would not escape without shedding a layer of skin—if not worse.

At this point, Zhao Xiaohua said with a beaming smile, ”Lin Chen, don’t worry, we sisters will properly ’train’ Xu Ye to ensure he won’t show up in tomorrow’s arena.”

Lin Chen was speechless, ”Bao’er, Xiaohua, don’t be too hard on Brother Xu. I would also like to experience Brother Xu’s Tai Chi martial arts.”

Seeing Lin Chen’s insistence, Zhao Xiaohua and Tang Bao’er finally abandoned the thought of continuing to torment Xu Ye.

”Hmph, since that’s the case, you have to buy me yogurt to drink, as a treat for me and my sister. We did eliminate quite a few opponents for you,” Tang Bao said with a smile.

Lin Chen nodded, ”Alright, I’ll go now.”

As he walked out of the supermarket, suddenly a pretty young girl with a microphone approached Lin Chen.

Two young men carrying cameras followed behind her.

”Mr. Lin, may I interview you?” At that moment, the young girl asked with a cheerful smile.

”Interview me?” Lin Chen was briefly taken aback by the pretty young girl.

”Yes, I’m a caster for the Superpower World. My name is Little Peach Red. Right now, you’ve dramatically made it to the top eight, and you’ve defeated the highly popular Li Muqing using that sort of lowly martial art. You’ve become quite the internet sensation in our Superpower World!” Little Peach Red said with a cheerful smile.

When did I accidentally become an internet sensation? Lin Chen felt utterly dejected.

Little Peach Red pulled out her smartphone and said with a cheerful smile, ”Mr. Lin Chen, look, your news is all over Super-People Net. We’ve interviewed friends from your village, and heard that since childhood, you were known for peeping at beauties bathing in the river. Is the ”Breast-Grabbing Technique” you created also a result of countless trials?”

Hearing Little Peach Red’s words, Lin Chen felt like he was on the verge of collapse.

The ”Breast-Grabbing Technique” was nothing more than a spur-of-the-moment prank he’d devised; he truly underestimated the combativeness of Li Muqing’s diehard fans.

With an awkward smile, Lin Chen said, ”Actually, everyone has misunderstood me. I have a lot of admiration for Miss Li Muqing. The match was thrilling for me, but we had set a certain agreement before the competition.”

”A secret signal?” Little Peach Red’s eyes lit up as she heard Lin Chen’s words, thinking a secret code between Lin Chen and Li Muqing would be big news.

Lin Chen smiled and continued, ”We’ve actually been friends for a long time, and our relationship is the intimate kind.”

”Uh-huh!” Little Peach Red’s heart blossomed with joy, the ambiguous scene on the stage now clear as a secretive romance.

”As you know, Muqing has always been the dream girl of countless boys in the superpower circles. If we went public with our relationship, it would surely break many a young man’s heart, so we decided to keep our love a secret,” Lin Chen went on.

”Wow, a secret romance, that’s big!” Little Peach Red’s face bloomed with a smile.

”The ’Breast-Grabbing Technique’ is actually our code, implying that I would bring her milk at night,” said Lin Chen, raising the yogurt he had just purchased from the supermarket to take to Zhao Xiaohua and Tang Bao’er.

”You see, I’m on my way to bring her the yogurt,” Lin Chen continued, ”Now that it’s hard to keep it a secret anymore, I’ll just come out and say it—Li Muqing is actually my girlfriend,” Lin Chen said with a serious face.
