Chapter 745: 745

Early the next morning.

Lin Dong took some time to explain things to Bai Zhonglou, Li Qingcang, Li Qingcheng, Sister Bai Jue, and the others before going into retreat.

This retreat could take several days.

Because he had to absorb three Strains of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, as well as a Three-Section Iris.

This was a surge of overwhelming energy, which Lin Dong would need to digest slowly.

Moreover, this was the process of going from three to four Golden Pills.

It signified the progression from a Third Stage Grandmaster to a Fourth Stage Grandmaster.

That meant advancing from the early phase of the Earth Realm to the intermediate phase, which naturally made it tougher than before.

After Lin Dong entered his retreat that day, the news of his upcoming duel with Chen Beiming continued to spread.

On the Martial Arts Dark Web, this event once again became the hottest topic.

Countless people were discussing the matter.

"I’m truly looking forward to Master Lin’s battle with Chen Beiming in ten days!"

"That’s going to be a battle between Master Lin and an Earth Realm martial artist. Fights like this are rare, happening once in several decades."

"Even Sect Masters might not have the opportunity to witness such battles in their lifetimes."

"I wonder if we martial artists will be able to witness the battle on the spot!"

"..."

Soon, the Martial Arts Dark Web responded.

This time, they would again live broadcast the duel.

Of course, the quality of the live broadcast may not be as high-definition as the last one on New Year’s Eve.

After all, this was an Earth Realm-level fight.

And it was set in a land of perilous peaks and mountains.

As for witnessing the fight on-site, the initial response from the Martial Arts Dark Web was no.

However, several hours later, that changed.

"Some special individuals will be allowed to watch the battle!"

"Ordinary martial artists are naturally not permitted! However, those who are ranked in the top ten of the Dragon Ranking, or who possess the strength of the top ten, will be allowed to observe the battle!"

When the official Martial Arts Dark Web released this notice, it immediately sparked another heated discussion.

"These conditions are as good as not opening it up at all!"

"That’s tantamount to giving the green light to that limited number of people, after all, the martial artists who can watch are just those few!"

"But the existences in the Top Ten of the Dragon Ranking indeed have the qualifications for the Martial Arts Dark Web to flash the green light!"

"..."

Even though people were dissatisfied in their hearts, they dared not say much.

After all, in the Martial Arts World, the strong are revered!

Fighters like those in the top ten of the Dragon Ranking deserved special treatment.

On the Martial Arts Dark Web’s end, the person in charge of broadcasting Lin Dong’s duel with Chen Beiming was still Miss Ying.

This Miss Ying seemed to be a very mysterious woman. Even within an organization like the Martial Arts Dark Web, she held a position of high status.

This time, only an old man accompanied her.

This old man appeared to be on the verge of death, yet his breath was unfathomable.

Even Miss Ying treated him with the utmost respect.

"Old Ming, since this duel is at the Earth Realm level, I’ll have to trouble you to protect me," she said.

Old Ming smiled faintly and said, "Miss, with me here, unless King Kunlun makes a move, no one can harm a hair on your head."

"I trust Old Ming’s strength. Actually, besides wanting Old Ming to protect my safety, there’s another matter I’d like to ask for your help with," she continued.

"It concerns that Master Lin who has learned the art of Yin and Yang. Last time, it was because of his use of the Yin-Yang Technique that I missed the final shot."

"This time, I need Old Ming’s help in breaking his Yin-Yang Technique when he uses it so that I can witness the end of the battle."

"Rest assured, miss. Unless his Mental Power surpasses mine, his Yin-Yang Technique can be easily broken by me," Old Ming said laughingly.

Hearing this, Miss Ying was relieved.

After all, Old Ming was one of their Martial Arts Dark Net’s ’Earth-level’ elders.

An Earth-level elder possessed the strength of Earth Realm Powerhouses. With such strength in Mental Power, how could he be inferior to Master Lin?

"Hehe, Master Lin, this time I’m going to see your trump cards clearly," Miss Ying clenched her fist, pictured Lin Dong in her mind, and muttered to herself.

Meanwhile, at the Zhao Family in Demon City.

Zhao Donglai, ranked third on the Dragon Ranking, also learned of Lin Dong’s duel with Chen Beiming set for ten days later.

He instructed his butler, "Prepare yourself. In ten days, I will head for The Imperial Mountain to watch the battle!"

"Yes!" the butler quickly nodded.

In the Capital City.

Seven Kills visited King Kunlun again.

"Master, Lin Dong and Chen Beiming have set their battle for ten days later on The Imperial Mountain. Will you be going to watch?"

King Kunlun shook his head indifferently, "I won’t go. But you might as well go take a look!"

Seven Kills had that intention.

"Yes, master. Then I shall make a trip to The Imperial Mountain in ten days!"

King Kunlun cautioned, "Remember, you are just to observe the battle, don’t interfere under any circumstances."

Seven Kills nodded, "I will obey your orders!"

Although he had a strong desire to kill Lin Dong, he treated his master’s words as a sacred decree. Since his master had instructed him, he would surely follow!

Back in the Capital City’s War Ministry, the Dragon King War God was also closely paying attention to Lin Dong.

At the moment, he learned about Lin Dong’s upcoming battle with Chen Beiming in ten days.

He summoned his chief Dragon Envoy, the Azure Dragon, and ordered, "In ten days, you take Xuanwu to The Imperial Mountain. Ensure the fairness of this great battle at all costs. If anyone dares to interfere, issue my Divine Order of War!"

After saying this, he flung out a token.

On the front of the token was the bold character ’God’. On the back, a golden dragon curled.

This was the Divine Order of War from the War Ministry, capable of summoning a million War Soldiers. Even Earth Realm martial artists would not dare to act rashly upon seeing this token.

Azure Dragon inhaled deeply, never expecting the Dragon King War God to issue the Divine Order of War for Lin Dong’s sake.

However, he dared not question it and respectfully took the Order of War, responding, "Yes, I shall fulfill this task without
