"Boom!"
After several days of actual combat, the Grand Beginning Fist Technique had been cultivated by Yun Lang to the point of perfection. With a raise of his hand, a powerful fist intent roared out.
Although there were cultivators among the Wang family's retainers, as mere retainers, their cultivation would naturally not be high.
With this palm strike, Yun Lang completely obliterated those arrogant retainers.
However, the powerful fist wind, upon reaching the little girl, completely restrained its force, like a gentle spring breeze, merely lifting a few strands of her hair.
Tears in her eyes, the little girl looked at the Wang family retainers, who had just had her in their grasp, now all lying on the ground. She stood alone in the center, utterly stunned.
Her gaze involuntarily fell upon Yun Lang, who was walking towards her, filled with admiration!
"Sir... thank you for your rescue!" The little girl, on the verge of tears, rushed towards Yun Lang.
She didn't know why, perhaps it was because Yun Lang's face was clear and handsome, and he appeared so imposing, unlike the Wang family's young master and his retinue. From the first glance, she felt a surge of trust towards him.
"You!"
The Wang family retainers, struck down by Yun Lang's sudden attack, were now mostly groaning in pain on the ground. Only one retainer with some martial skill could grit his teeth and speak a few words.
Yun Lang had rushed out of the arena and had not yet removed his mask, so his identity was naturally recognized.
"It's Lin Lang! The monstrous newcomer from the arena!"
Someone gritted out, their eyes filled with malice as they looked at Yun Lang.
"Do you know who we are? How dare you attack? We are from the Wang family, and this woman was personally requested by the Wang family's young master. If you dare to interfere, we guarantee you'll regret it!"
Some retainers shouted threats at Yun Lang.
Yun Lang chose to completely ignore these pathetic threats.
As if he hadn't heard what the retainers were saying, he simply stepped over their writhing bodies on the ground.
How laughable, they couldn't even withstand a single punch from him and yet they threatened to make him regret it?
Where did their courage come from? Did Liang Jingru give it to them?
As Yun Lang walked towards the little girl, she also rushed towards him, calling him "Sir" and "Benefactor" repeatedly.
"Who are you, where do you live, and I'll send you back?" Yun Lang asked the little girl patiently.
Having experienced such a great ordeal, the little girl was now sobbing, unable to control her tears.
"This humble girl... this humble girl's name is Zhao Wan'er... This humble girl's parents are no longer... no longer alive... Sir, this humble girl is truly without a home, I implore you to take me in!" Zhao Wan'er said, then knelt down.
"No, no," Yun Lang frowned, stopping Zhao Wan'er from continuing to kowtow.
Zhao Wan'er had used all her strength in that last kowtow, and her forehead was already red.
Looking at Zhao Wan'er's appearance, she truly didn't seem to be lying. Yun Lang sighed, "Alright, you can stay with me for now."
Thus, Yun Lang brought Zhao Wan'er back to the inn, asked the attendant to open a room for her, and then exchanged rooms with her.
Yun Lang did this for a reason. Although he didn't fear the Wang family's group, others might not be so fortunate.
Moreover, the attendant just now didn't seem like a reliable person. If he sold Zhao Wan'er out, and the Wang family found their way to her, how could a weak woman like Zhao Wan'er cope?
That's why Yun Lang specifically exchanged rooms with her. This way, even if the Wang family came looking, they would come for him.
Zhao Wan'er felt Yun Lang's thoughtfulness and was once again in tears, immensely grateful to Yun Lang.
Yun Lang comforted the greatly startled Zhao Wan'er, and suddenly it was past midnight.
The night passed in a flash. The next day, Yun Lang went to the arena as usual. If he could win today's fight, he would become a Silver Warrior, thus completing the task assigned by Lin Ru Xue!
However, upon arriving at the arena, Yun Lang found that many of the spectators looked dejected, some even with a resolute expression of cutting off their own wrists!
"Lin Lang, go!"
"My entire fortune is riding on you, you must win this one!"
"I'm counting on you, I believe you can even defeat Xiao Ru Long!"
...
Yun Lang heard shouts from the audience.
It turned out his opponent today was Xiao Ru Long.
Xiao Ru Long was a Silver Warrior in this arena, who had fought here for a long time with few defeats. His strength had reached the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm, which was incomparable to Yun Lang's previous opponents!
"The opponents from the past two days were at most at the third level of the Foundation Establishment realm, and today it's the sixth level," Yun Lang mused.
He didn't believe that the situation behind this wasn't being manipulated by Chen Sheng Ping or someone from the arena.
These people were merely trying to put him in his place because he hadn't cooperated earlier.
Yun Lang let out a cold laugh. Little did they know, the third level or the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm made no difference to him now!
During the battles of the past few days, Yun Lang had long broken through the limitations of the Qi Refining realm and reached the first level of the Foundation Establishment realm.
Although he was still a bit behind his opponents, don't forget that Yun Lang had previously been able to defeat opponents at the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment realm, and even more so now?
These people from the arena ultimately underestimated him!
Yun Lang sneered inwardly, but his expression remained calm.
Seeing Yun Lang's composed demeanor, the audience was further invigorated, cheering him on madly!
Many even changed their bets on the spot and switched their allegiance to Yun Lang.
Suddenly, although the difference in strength between Yun Lang and Xiao Ru Long was vast, the odds were almost the same, with Xiao Ru Long's odds even slightly higher than Yun Lang's!
This indicated that they considered Yun Lang stronger than Xiao Ru Long!
Seeing this, Chen Sheng Ping beamed with joy, wishing he could let out three loud laughs to the heavens.
He had planned for such a long time, all for this moment, to ruin Yun Lang's reputation! Who told this kid to be so ungrateful and dare to refuse him.
He truly refused a toast and had to drink a forfeit!
Chen Sheng Ping knew Xiao Ru Long's strength best. Although the official data stated he was at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment realm, Xiao Ru Long had made further breakthroughs in the past few days, and his current strength had reached the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment realm!
With such strength, killing Yun Lang would be as easy as flipping his hand!
As for Xiao Ru Long, he believed his own skills were superb, and now the odds were almost the same as a nameless person with inferior strength. Naturally, he was quite displeased, his old face as dark as the bottom of a pot.
