Chapter 2047: Chapter 1843: Kept Man (Part 3)

Then, Huang Jinseng arranged everything.

The drawing of lots was simple. In a hidden box, there were fifty slips of paper, numbered one, two, three, four, five, each written on ten slips. The contestants would draw a number and be assigned to that group.

Song Yun drew Group Five, and he noticed Lin Jun next to him drew Group Three.

How the groups were divided did not concern him; it was irrelevant to him.

After the grouping was completed, the Changshan Sect numbered the five arenas, and the people of each group ascended their respective arenas.

Whether it was fate or just a coincidence, the seeded contestants were almost evenly distributed among the arenas.

Lu Tiange, Shen Cheng were in one group, Gu Man, Gu Meng in Group Two, Shen Lingyun, Shen Han in Group Three, Lin Jun, Lin Xiang in Group Four.

Song Yun was in Group Five, and to his surprise, there wasn’t a single seeded contestant in Group Five.

At this time, others from different groups looked over at Group Five with envy.

The seeded contestants basically locked in the top ten positions, so only the Fifth Group was still up for grabs.

However, there were only nine people in Group Five.

One was missing, why was that?

As people were puzzled, they saw a figure sprinting from the periphery, and upon closer inspection, it was Changshan Dongfang Yun.

The crowd’s gaze immediately focused on Dongfang Yun.

"Master, I am late."

Dongfang Yun stood at the front row, saluted respectfully towards Huang Jinseng on the platform.

At the same time, she glanced at the five arenas with a look of confusion, not understanding the rule changes.

"It’s good that you are here."

Huang Jinseng nodded, a smile appearing on his face, his disciple finally came out at a crucial moment, and it seemed her strength had improved.

At this moment, Huang Jinseng was very curious about what kind of elixir pills Dongfang Yun had taken.

But now was not the time to inquire, with the competition imminent, he signaled Elder Changshan, who was responsible for judging, to explain the rules to Dongfang Yun.

After understanding the rules, Dongfang Yun didn’t need to draw a lot and directly went up to Arena Five.

"Song Yun."

As soon as she stepped on the arena, she exclaimed joyfully and walked straight towards Song Yun.

At this moment, the entire crowd’s gaze was on her, and seeing her walking towards Song Yun, the young men all glared angrily at Song Yun.

"Who is this guy?"

"Isn’t he the guy who killed the Beidi Three Eagles a few days ago? It seems Dongfang Yun has some ambiguous relationship with him."

"Rumor has it that he is the illegitimate son of Changshan Sect Leader Huang Jinseng. Is Huang Jinseng planning to have his illegitimate son marry his disciple?"

The onlookers in the crowd gossiped eagerly.

In contrast, those on the arena didn’t say much.

However, the men’s eyes on Song Yun were still filled with deep envy, jealousy, and resentment.

"Miss Yun, you’ve made me quite a target."

Song Yun looked around and complained to Dongfang Yun as she walked over to him.

Dongfang Yun covered her mouth and laughed, her laugh charming and captivating, causing the men to admire her deeply.

She said to Song Yun: "I just came out of seclusion and heard that you killed someone in public. Your hostility level is already full, are you still afraid of me attracting a bit more hatred for you?"

"Not afraid." Song Yun shook his head with a grin: "With you covering me, I’m not afraid of anything."

Dongfang Yun pouted: "Does that mean you’re living off a woman?"

Song Yun raised an eyebrow, and said affectionately: "If it’s your support, I would be very willing to accept."

Though it was said in jest, the words made Dongfang Yun’s heart tremble, her pretty face turned rosy.

The feeling was like being confessed to by a lover.

All of a sudden, even Dongfang Yun, who had roamed the Martial World for years, felt at a loss.

"Everyone’s here, and they’re all on the arena. Please, Master Xue, give the order to start."

Lu Tiange from Group One shouted loudly to Elder Changshan, who was presiding over the Four-Sect Tournament.

His sudden voice immediately drew everyone’s attention away from Arena Five.

"Let’s stop chatting, let’s get ready to fight."

Dongfang Yun regained her composure, moved two steps aside, and created some distance between herself and Song Yun.
