SRGA Chapter 116:
"Lin Tian, hurry up and freshen up, I'll prepare breakfast."
Lin Tian came out of the room, and Luo Bingning smiled.
"Okay."
Soon, Lin Tian finished freshening up and sat down at the dining table.
There was a black iron box on top of Luo Bingning's head.
"Ice, are you worried about Lu Kunhou's situation?"
Lin Tian asked.
He didn't tease Luo Bingning yesterday, yet she had a black iron box on her head. It was probably because she was worried about this.
Luo Bingning nodded. "Lu Kunhou might reveal that you told him to leave, which could affect your reputation."
"This morning, I called my dad, and he said he would put pressure on the Lu family."
Lin Tian was a triple master, and his reputation was very good. Luo Bingning didn't want Lu Kunhou to tarnish Lin Tian's reputation.
Lin Tian smiled. "Lu Kunhou doesn't have time to mess with this anymore. He has been arrested for colluding with foreign spies."
"Huh?"
Luo Bingning looked at Lin Tian in astonishment.
"I'm under the National Security Bureau now, right?"
"The one handling this matter happens to be our Special Affairs Group."
Luo Bingning looked at Lin Tian with some suspicion.
Did Lu Kunhou's trouble have something to do with Lin Tian? Otherwise, given his attitude yesterday, why would he be arrested today?
"Really caught?"
Luo Bingning asked.
Lin Tian nodded. "Don't spread this news outside. He was secretly arrested and hasn't been made public yet. It wouldn't be good if it leaked out."
"Okay."
Luo Bingning nodded.
"Lin Tian, be careful at the Youth Martial Arts Competition today. There might be masters from the Kingdom of Dongying."
Luo Bingning reminded.
She only knew that Lin Tian was a master, not that he was already a martial arts grandmaster.
"Don't worry, wife. I estimate that the master from the Kingdom of Dongying is probably not as strong as me."
"Really?"
Luo Bingning's eyes lit up.
Lin Tian smiled. "Of course it's true. If he doesn't trouble me, he'll be fine. But if he does, he's in trouble."
"Linhai, if you have to take action, won't your identity be exposed? Will your parents be in trouble?"
Lin Tian chuckled. "I asked General Yang for about ten retired soldiers. They should be here in the next couple of days."
"That's good."
Luo Bingning breathed a sigh of relief.
...
After breakfast, Luo Bingning went to work.
Lin Tian went to a nearby hotel where Ouyang Fei was staying. He quickly came down and got into Lin Tian's car.
"Those guys from the Stick Kingdom are as annoying as the ones from the Kingdom of Dongying. They actually said that our martial arts originated from their Stick Kingdom."
"They even said that if they win this time, they'll apply for UNESCO recognition."
Ouyang Fei said indignantly.
Lin Tian asked in surprise, "When did they say that?"
"Just now. They're already outside the stadium, saying it in front of many reporters."
"Lin Ge, you'll see it later in the video. Those guys are very arrogant. I suspect there are also masters among them."
Lin Tian smiled faintly. "This is their usual practice. It wasn't made public before because the competition was conducted privately."
"That's true."
"Their country's territory is so small, but they have big mouths."
Ouyang Fei grumbled.
Lin Tian said, "Ouyang, I'm not very clear about the rules of the Youth Martial Arts Competition. Can you explain them?"
Ouyang Fei nodded.
"It's always been a private competition, so there aren't many rules. There are a total of ten martial tokens. Two people go up, and the winner gets a martial token."
"After all ten tokens are obtained, the remaining people can challenge those who have tokens to get them."
"When no one else is challenging, the country with the most tokens wins."
Lin Tian was surprised. "That's it? There's no determination of the first place?"
"This is the usual arrangement. In fact, after the competition, there are still duels between those who are dissatisfied with each other."
"The usual arrangement doesn't allow intentional fatal blows. For duels outside the usual arrangement, everyone participating has to sign a life and death agreement."
"In recent years, two people have died. One from our country and one from the Kingdom of Dongying. There are injuries every year."
At the end, Ouyang Fei looked gloomy.
Lin Tian said, "With the usual arrangements, what are our chances of winning?"
Ouyang Fei frowned.
"If they don't unite against our country, we should be able to win, after all, we have a huge population advantage."
"It's difficult if they unite against us."
Lin Tian glanced at Ouyang Fei.
Ouyang Fei sighed softly. "We have a much larger population than them combined, but there were some special reasons before."
"My dad said that the country will pay more attention to this in the future."
Lin Tian nodded slightly.
Half an hour later, Lin Tian and the others arrived at the S City Stadium.
There were many people gathered outside the stadium.
Most of them couldn't get in without tickets.
A ticket that could get them in was already being sold for tens of thousands of dollars.
"Squeak!"
Just as Lin Tian and the others arrived at the entrance, the team from the Kingdom of Dongying came over.
Their cars stopped directly at the entrance of the stadium.
A group of about twenty people, led by Fujiwara Ueno, got out of several cars.
"Ouyang Family, Ouyang Fei?"
Fujiwara Ueno looked towards Ouyang Fei.
Ouyang Fei snorted coldly.
"Ouyang Fei, is your brother's injury healed?"
Fujiwara Ueno smiled, a hint of disdain in his eyes. "Compared to your brother, your talent is quite lacking."
With that, Fujiwara Ueno and his group arrogantly entered the stadium.
Ouyang Fei clenched his fists.
"Ouyang, you have another brother?"
Ouyang Fei took a deep breath. "Yes, I have an older brother. He reached the mid-stage of Hidden Force five years ago."
"He had both legs broken during a duel, with comminuted fractures. He was targeted by a joint effort, otherwise, he would have definitely won."
Lin Tian asked, "And your brother's legs now—"
Ouyang Fei's voice was bitter. "Comminuted fractures cannot be completely cured by the hospital. Now he can only rely on a wheelchair."
"What Fujiwara Ueno said is true. My brother's talent is better than mine. In the year he participated, he was only twenty-one."
"In a while, I'll go to the Imperial Capital, and I'll visit your family."
Ouyang Fei looked at Lin Tian with surprise.
But soon his expression dimmed.
Even though Lin Tian was a martial arts grandmaster, his brother's legs had been disabled for five years. There was probably nothing Lin Tian could do.
Ouyang Fei didn't know that Lin Tian was a martial arts grandmaster and also a top-tier master in ancient medical arts.
"Fei ge!"
"Ouyang, what's your strength now?"
Soon, Lin Tian and the others arrived inside the stadium. Many martial artists from Huaxia had already arrived, and they greeted each other.
"Everyone, let me introduce you."
"This is my elder brother Lin Tian. He is fluent in Japanese and Korean. If you need translation that regular translators dare not do, you can find my elder brother Lin. He definitely dares to translate."
Ouyang Fei introduced Lin Tian to everyone.
"Hello, everyone, my name is Lin Tian. I'm roommates with Ouyang. Just call me by my name."
One of them said, "Your Lin family recently produced an amazing person. Masked Hero Lin, he's a triple master."
"And he's also a martial arts grandmaster."
Ouyang Fei was stunned, looking at Lin Tian with suspicion.
He now knew that Lin Tian was a martial arts grandmaster.
But he didn't know about Lin Tian being the Masked Hero.
"Could Lin Ge be the Masked Hero?"
Ouyang Fei wondered inwardly.
