Lin Nenghao let out a hollow laugh. His voice echoed across the training ground.
Even a blind man could tell that Lin Nenghao and Lin Nengchi were not on good terms with each other.
Seeing this, Lin Buzheng, who was walking towards the high platform of the martial arts field, suddenly stopped.
He turned around and approached the two of them without batting an eyelid.
"Although I don't have many Reverse Scales, I obtained them with my own abilities by killing the mermaids.
"The reverse scale in your hand was taken from someone else's hand."
"Lin Nenghao, I wonder who's the one that's bringing shame to the clan!"
Little Fatty Lin glared at Lin Nenghao angrily. His face was flushed red and his eyes were filled with hatred.
"Humph, it doesn't matter how I got my Reverse Scale.
"Before the Clans Tournament, grandfather said that the one who obtains the highest ranking in the tournament will become the next clan head."
"From the looks of it, it seems like you've lost this grand competition."
"If that's the case, as the next Patriarch, I have no choice but to kick you out of the clan!"
Lin Nenghao shook his head regretfully at Fatty Lin. The venom in his eyes could not be concealed no matter what he did.
"You — —"
When Little Fatty Lin heard that, he was so angry that he was shivering, unable to say a single word.
"Poor Lin Nengchi."
"Not only is he an illegitimate son, his mother died when he was young, and his father died when the mermaids attacked the city. No one can help him now that Lin Nenghao is bullying him!"
The spectating disciples shook their heads and sighed.
It turned out that although Fatty Lin and Lin Nenghao were both the grandsons of the Third Elder, Lin Nenghao was the eldest grandson of the first branch, while Fatty Lin was the son of the second branch, and an illegitimate son at that.
On top of that, Lin Nenghao's cultivation was higher than Fatty Lin's, thus he was favored by the Third Elder.
In the past few years, Fatty Lin had been bullied by Lin Nengchi.
This time, Lin Nenghao's ranking in the competition was higher than Fatty Lin's, and he would become the next Patriarch.
They were planning to kick Fatty Lin out of the family and remove his name from the family tree!
"I really didn't expect Lin Nengchi to suffer so much."
Lin Buzheng gently shook his head.
Who would have thought that the usually optimistic and cheerful Little Fatty Lin would have so many sad stories behind his back?
"Lin Nengchi, you've been an eyesore for a long time."
"Go back tonight, pack up your things, and get out of the family as soon as possible!"
Lin Nenghao held his head high and did not hide the smug look on his face.
Fatty Lin didn't say anything. He walked past Lin Nenghao in a daze, holding a few green scales.
He was very clear that Lin Nenghao was ruthless and ruthless, and he would do as he said. Tonight, not only would Lin Nenghao chase him out of the main family, he would even remove his name from the family tree.
Patter!
In the next moment, Little Fatty Lin's figure suddenly staggered.
In a moment of carelessness, he bumped into a disciple beside him.
"Sorry!"
Fatty Lin didn't even raise his head as he apologized instinctively. He didn't even notice that he wasn't the one who bumped into this person, but the latter.
"You …"
However, Fatty Lin immediately raised his head with a stunned expression.
He clearly felt that the person who bumped into him was stuffing something into his hand.
"Big brother, you — —"
Fatty Lin opened his mouth wide. He finally saw the face of the person who bumped into him.
His eyes narrowed and his nose twitched, as he became extremely excited.
"Go for it!"
The person who bumped into Fatty Lin gave him a smile of encouragement, before leaving the place and disappearing into the crowd.
"Big brother?"
"It's too late to lower your head and call me big brother now!"
Lin Nenghao laughed coldly. He didn't realize exactly what had happened in the time it took for a spark to fly off a piece of flint. He thought that Fatty Lin was submitting to him and begging for mercy, which caused his expression to become even more arrogant.
Slap, slap!
Following this, under the gaze of over a thousand disciples, Fatty Lin slowly went up the stage and headed toward the Patriarch who was calculating the results of the trial.
"Humph, you won't shed a tear until you see your coffin."
Lin Nenghao let out a disdainful harrumph.
Yesterday, he had already found out that Little Fatty Lin only had a few Fishman Reverse Scales in his hands.
It was impossible for him to compete with him.
"How is this possible …"
However, Lin Nenghao was dumbfounded the next moment.
Swish!
Just as Lin Nenghao had seen, Fatty Lin had placed the Murloc Reverse Scale on the stone table.
There were indeed only a few of them.
However, among these eight merman reverse scales, only three were cyan in color.
The remaining five were emitting a pitch-black luster like the night sky.
The reverse scale of an ordinary merman was blue.
The reverse scale of a merman was black.
In other words, Fatty Lin had handed in fifty-three reverse scales, which was twenty more than the thirty-three that Lin Nenghao had handed in!
"No, this is impossible!"
"Lin Nengchi's strength is only at the second-layer Qi Path, he doesn't have the strength to kill the merman general and obtain its reverse scale!"
"These black reverse scales must have been obtained by this damn fatty through shady means, I object!"
Lin Nenghao protested loudly, his gaze toward Fatty Lin was filled with endless hatred.
"Humph, what right do you have to object?
"Why don't you think about how you got your thirty-three reverse scales!
"Such shamelessness, it's disgusting!"
However, before Lin Nenghao could finish his sentence, countless Lin Clan disciples on the martial arts field immediately burst into laughter. With just a few words, Lin Nenghao was rendered speechless, and his face turned red.
"Objection overruled!"
"The trial only counts the number of reverse scales in the hands of the disciples, it does not consider the origin of the reverse scales."
"Lin Nengchi has obtained three reverse scales and five reverse scales of the merman general, ranking eighth in this trial!"
Especially when the Patriarch announced Lin Nengchi's ranking, it shattered the last bit of hope in Lin Nenghao's heart.
"It's over!"
"Although grandpa is partial to me, his words are always firm and firm."
"In this Clan Competition, Lin Nengchi's ranking is above mine. Grandfather will definitely support him to become the next Clan Head. At that time, Lin Nengchi will definitely treat me the same way I treated him. He will chase me out of the clan and remove my name from the clan …"
"No, I have to go home and think of something!"
Like a stray dog, Lin Nenghao left dejectedly amidst the ridicule of the crowd.
"Brother, thank you …"
At that moment, Fatty Lin stood on the platform and burst into tears.
As an illegitimate son, Fatty Lin had always been bullied by Lin Nenghao.
Now that his father had died in battle and he had become an orphan, Lin Nenghao still insisted on expelling him from the family.
Fatty Lin had accepted the reality and planned to leave the family after the wake for his father.
However, at the crucial moment, Lin Buzheng extended a helping hand and gave him five reverse scales of the merman general, allowing him to foil Lin Nenghao's scheme and continue to stay in the family.
Fatty Lin would never forget Lin Buzheng's help for the rest of his life!
"The tabulation of the trial is coming to an end."
"Are there any disciples who haven't been tabulated yet? Come and report at once!"
A moment later, Fatty Lin walked down from the platform. Patriarch Lin Yushan's voice echoed throughout the Lin family.
"Coming!"
