Chapter 71: Chapter 71: The Dean’s Judgement!

Perhaps because the dean was there, Wu Chiren calmed down quite a bit. Noticing that Lu Chen hadn’t paid his respects to the dean, he couldn’t help but sneer, "Chen Lu, is this how you show disrespect to the dean?"

Lu Chen smirked with disdain. How could he not handle such petty tricks designed to sow discord?

Turning around, Lu Chen spoke loudly, "I have seen the dean! Indeed, it is like the sudden arrival of an immortal. Forgive me, I am short-sighted and failed to recognize you right away!"

"Interesting!"

The dean revealed a meaningful smile and said, "A deathmatch doesn’t violate the academy’s rules, and I am merely here to watch the excitement!"

"However, you are both prized sons of the academy, and losing either of you would be unbearable to me!"

"Therefore, if someone shouts ’I lose,’ I will intervene to assist. How does that sound?"

Upon hearing this, both men involuntarily exchanged glances.

Wu Chiren was afraid the dean might save Lu Chen.

But Lu Chen wasn’t concerned about that; he was more worried about whether this would leave him with even greater troubles!

He verbally agreed, yet in his heart, he was thinking that he needed to strike decisively and quickly. As soon as the fight began, he would channel his Spiritual Power into the Heavenly Inquiry Spear and use a series of Heavenly Inquiry Spear techniques to instantly kill his opponent!

He wouldn’t give him the chance to beg for mercy, not even time to catch his breath!

Wu Chiren, naturally, had the same idea. Lu Chen had made him lose face, and mere death seemed insufficient punishment!

"Now that you both understand, retreat to your respective sides of the arena," said the dean.

The dean looked at both of them, and with a flick of his wrist, suddenly there was a green leaf in his hand.

After the two had moved to opposite edges of the arena, the dean then said, "When the leaf touches the ground, the duel will begin!"

After speaking, he quietly released his hold.

The falling leaf swayed as it descended.

Lu Chen removed his eye patch and placed it over his right eye, exposing his dark and deep left eye.

But those below the stage were all confused and inwardly shocked by Lu Chen’s apparent choice to blindfold himself for the fight.

Before they could ponder further, the leaf had already touched the ground!

With a loud shout, Wu Chiren drew out the long sword from his waist and took a large step forward, thrusting his sword directly at Lu Chen with spiritual power that seemed to pierce through the air itself!

"Hum!"

"Hum!"

"Hum!"

The long sword seemed to tear through the air itself, emitting a series of vibrating sounds!

"Such a fast sword!"

"Who would have thought Wu Chiren could achieve such a feat?"

"The Visceral Refinement Realm... is it just this much?"

Wu Chiren was a Martial Artist of the Marrow Refinement Realm, but in the eyes of the crowd, they regarded him as if he had reached the Visceral Refinement Realm!

Below the stage, Yu Qingqing couldn’t help but clench the hem of her clothing. Although she had once faced the enemy with Lu Chen, the strength of the opponent now made her heart rise to her throat, and her eyes showed a worried expression.

In the blink of an eye, Wu Chiren had already reached the center of the arena!

With such speed, all the Soul Refinement Realm teachers nodded repeatedly in admiration.

Even Li Mingru was secretly surprised, as Wu Chiren had reached such a level!

He wondered how Lu Chen would respond!

At that moment, Lu Chen also moved!

He too had trained in sword techniques, and his Lu Family Swordsmanship was at a masterful level.

"Marrow Refinement Realm allows one to release Sword Qi. His choice not to use Sword Qi means this strike is his trump card!"

Lu Chen instantly guessed what the other was thinking and immediately devised a counter-strategy.

A sword thrust with such force would inherently have a significant inertia; missing would reveal its vulnerabilities.

Under Lu Chen’s observing eyes, this fast sword strike had no advantage whatsoever!

As seen through Lu Chen’s eyes, the speed of the attack was significantly slowed down.

However, he could feel that Wu Chiren was truly extraordinary; this sword strike was much faster than any he had ever responded to before!

But that was all there was to it!

He gripped the long spear in his hands tightly.

You’re fast, are you?

Then let me show you the consequences of being too swift!

Channeling Spiritual Power into his hands, Lu Chen violently hurled the long spear!

"Spear Strikes the Sky!"

In a flash, the spear left his hand and shot towards the chest of Wu Chiren—it was as if Wu Chiren himself was rushing towards the spear’s point!

Lu Chen’s thinking was simple.

In terms of realm, he was inferior.

If he were to use any other spear technique to meet the attack, he would inevitably be affected by the vibration of the opponent’s sword force.

Under absolute power, he would be at a disadvantage and be killed by Wu Chiren in one blow!

However, by throwing the spear
