The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 209 - 210 Zhang Zide
When the red glow halted, the combatant list immediately changed, and the portraits of Lin Qian and Zhang Li floated out, their realms also began to be compared.
Lin Qian, Sky Breaking Realm Sixth Level.
Zhang Li, Sky Breaking Realm Sky Crossing Stage.
Once the realms of both parties appeared, many people shook their heads in amusement, feeling that there was no suspense this time.
Even some took delight in the Eastern Division Clan’s misfortune, saying that it was bad enough having a Human Clan ally with a lower realm.
To start off against someone from a minor clan, if it had been someone from the Eight-Armed Sea Clan, perhaps they could have lasted a few more rounds, which would have looked better at least.
"It’s my turn!" Seeing it was his turn, Lin Qian rose and swam towards the direction of the arena space from the spectator stand.
Having watched a previous contest, Lin Qian had already figured out the rules; the token issued beforehand just needed to be worn at the waist, and upon touching the arena’s Array, it would automatically be recognized.
As he approached the arena’s Array, a gentle glow emerged from the token at Lin Qian’s waist, enveloping him wholly.
Upon touching the edge of the arena’s Array, he seemed to be merged into it, entering the water domain of the arena space.
When Lin Qian arrived at the center of his half of the arena space, he stopped.
At the same time, Lin Qian saw from afar, in the center of the other half of the arena space, Zhang Li of the Eight-Armed Sea Clan had already arrived and was quietly waiting.
"Ahem." After coughing softly twice, the female host in the central area started speaking, "Now that both parties have taken the stage, let the contest begin!"
After announcing the start of the contest, the female host shot upwards, but before leaving, she looked at Lin Qian with a sympathetic gaze.
Clearly, the female host wasn’t optimistic about Lin Qian’s chances, thinking he was doomed to lose and thus miss out on this clan conference’s first round.
"Ah, this time the Eastern Division Clan is really in trouble." The female host, who had swiftly left the arena space, looked down at Lin Qian in the arena space below her and sighed softly, whispering so only she could hear, "The performance of this Human Clan ally in this clan conference really matters a lot regarding that Ancient Human Clan relic."
"Even if the Eastern Division Clan’s own members perform well, I’m afraid because of this Lin Qian, they might miss out on the Ancient Human Clan relic."

Like this female host, many shared the same opinion; most were not optimistic about Lin Qian.
"Frankly, being at the Sixth Level of the Sky Breaking Realm at the age of twenty already speaks volumes of his talent, but he’s just too young. Give him another two or three years, he probably wouldn’t be this underestimated." At the clan’s spectating stand, next to the Clan Leader Zhang Tianxin sat a young member of the Eight-Armed Sea Clan, expressing his regrets.
Being able to sit next to the Clan Leader, obviously, this young member of the Eight-Armed Sea Clan was extraordinary.
"No way." After the young man finished speaking, Zhang Tianxin, who had been observing Lin Qian for a long time, suddenly shook his head.
"Grandfather, what’s wrong?" Curiosity sparked in the young man.
Grandfather!
Indeed, this young Eight-Armed Sea Clansman was none other than Zhang Tianxin’s sole grandson, the top prodigy of the Eight-Armed Sea Clan, Zhang Zide.
Not only was Zhang Zide extraordinarily talented, but he also had exceptional looks; at least in the eyes of the Eight-Armed Sea Clan, his tender pink skin, proportionally coordinated eight arms, and handsome features, had earned him the title of the most handsome young generation member.
"That Human Clan’s young man is not simple, especially if you consider the strength of his physique. Zi De, you’re not his match." After a moment, Zhang Tianxin spoke with emotion.
"What!" Hearing his grandfather’s words, Zhang Zide incredulously gazed at Lin Qian in the arena space, who was now turned with his back to him, visible only from behind.
At the same time, surrounding murmurs filled the air, all discussing how pathetic this Human Clan member was and how Zhang Li would thrash him.
After a moment of shock, Zhang Zide couldn’t help but laugh: "This is going to be interesting."
If his own grandfather, Zhang Tianxin, one of the top powerhouses of the Eight-Armed Sea Clan, said this, it was likely true. Thus, this Human Clan’s Lin Qian was probably not as simple as he appeared.
After announcing the start of the match, Lin Qian did not initiate the attack, and his opponent, Zhang Li, also remained stationary, looking at him as if in amusement.
"Honestly, I didn’t expect my luck to be this good, drawing such a favorable lot." At that moment, Zhang Li facing Lin Qian suddenly started talking.
Hearing Zhang Li’s words, Lin Qian raised an eyebrow, and from the mouthpiece of his breathing Soul Device, a string of air bubbles was released.
"When I was below earlier, I was already happy because it meant I had two points in the bag." Zhang Li continued to muse to himself, not hiding the joy in his tone.
"Two points…" Lin Qian, hearing Zhang Li say this, couldn’t help but shake his head lightly.
In the clan’s contest, participating in a combat would earn one point, which could be redeemed at the Eight-Armed Sea Clan’s treasure vault for items.
Even a single point could get a Mid Grade Pill valued at a hundred thousand Mid Grade Soul Crystals!
Someone who lost their first match but participated in the combat could still earn one point, effectively a consolation prize.
Winning one battle would earn an additional point.
Zhang Li believed that this contest was a sure win for him, easily getting two points, which amounted to two hundred thousand Mid Grade Soul Crystals, hence his excitement.
"Hey, Human Clan fellow, I advise you to just surrender and save yourself the pain." Saying this, Zhang Li waved his eight arms, and four standard tridents appeared in his hands, with the blue Soul Power of Water Attribute manifesting, causing the surrounding water to twist.
Simultaneously, the domineering aura of the Sky Crossing Stage of the Sky Breaking Realm rose from Zhang Li’s body, arrogantly facing Lin Qian.
"How about it, seeing this grand uncle’s strength, you should know what to do now, right?" Zhang Li bellowed with laughter, even spurting a couple of ink spurts in excitement!
"What an idiot, does he really think Master Lin is easy to provoke?" On the Eastern Division Clan’s spectator stand, Zhang Qi and the four players beside him all burst out laughing.
"Oh? Zhang Qi, are you saying your ally can defeat Zhang Li despite being four levels below?" At that moment, a young female member of the Western Division Clan from the Eight-Armed Sea Clan nearby asked with a light laugh.
Seeing this young woman, respect flashed in Zhang Qi’s eyes, but his tone was full of confidence: "Of course, Master Lin’s strength shouldn’t be underestimated just by appearances, because…"
"He’s truly a monster!"
