Chapter 72: Chapter 72: This Kid Is Extraordinary!

This spear thrust caught everyone by surprise.

No one could expect that Lu Chen’s reaction would be so fast!

Wu Chiren’s sword was already fast.

So fast that any Marrow Refinement Realm martial artist among the audience felt they too would struggle to dodge it!

Yet unexpectedly, not only did Lu Chen not dodge, but he also threw his long spear, catching Wu Chiren off guard!

And in that brief moment, Lu Chen closed in again, taking advantage of his immense strength to press down on Wu Chiren as he descended!

"This boy... is not ordinary!"

Xu Zhengde’s pupils shrank, putting aside their realm, if one were just to look at the ability to react on the spot, Lu Chen ought to be peerless!

What they didn’t know was that Lu Chen relied entirely on the wonders of his pupils combined with the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique, which allowed him to see through his opponent’s flaws!

"It’s just a pity that his realm is still a bit weak,"

beside him, the Elder of Heavenly Medicine sighed softly. Yet, he reached into his bosom.

He was already prepared to treat Lu Chen’s injuries!

With such a powerful figure as the dean present, he wasn’t worried about Lu Chen dying.

But getting injured was inevitable!

"Indeed, such arrogance. Using Wu Chiren to teach him that there will always be someone stronger, there is always a higher heaven, is also not a bad thing,"

a teacher also remarked.

"Of course, not just anyone can enter our Heavenly Book Academy. It’s just a pity, he ended up following Li Mingru!"

"Right, I heard it was Yu Qingqing who met him outside the imperial city. If I had known, I would have gone to the imperial city yesterday too!"

There were teachers beating their chests and sighing, lamenting over missing out on Lu Chen.

These martial artists did not shy away from discussing in front of the other students watching.

And hearing the teachers’ comments, they gradually began to believe that Wu Chiren was only temporarily at a disadvantage, and the one who would ultimately be defeated would only be Lu Chen!

For a time, everyone couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

Because almost all of them had placed their bets on Wu Chiren!

But as time went on, Lu Chen’s spear techniques became more and more relentless, forcing Wu Chiren to step back repeatedly, which also made the Soul Refinement Realm onlookers’ expressions grow serious.

With their exceptional vision, they could tell that Wu Chiren had no chance to counterattack!

Lu Chen’s long spear followed one move with another, interlocking them flawlessly!

From the current perspective, if Wu Chiren had any chance of survival, it would surely be due to a flaw that Lu Chen himself presented!

The bettors among the martial artists became a bit anxious.

"Why hasn’t Wu Chiren counterattacked yet?"

"Maybe he still wants to toy with Chen Lu?"

"Perhaps, he wants Chen Lu to use all his skills and then defeat him with one move at the end!"

"Hehe, to kill both the body and spirit? Indeed, despite Chen Lu being only a Marrow Refinement Realm, I feel I can’t beat him either!"

These martial artists continued discussing spiritedly, as if their bets were already securely in their pockets.

"Teacher, Lu... Chen Lu, he?"

Yu Qingqing, with her insufficient realm, couldn’t see the intricacies of the fight and, upon hearing these discussions, couldn’t help but grow nervous, asking Li Mingru with a worried look.

"No worry, let’s watch and see,"

Li Mingru replied with an indifferent smile, his casual words easing Yu Qingqing’s concerns a bit.

Meanwhile, Wu Chiren also gradually sensed something was amiss.

First, the power that Lu Chen wielded was not simply Yuan force, but a steady pressure that surpassed him, which was why he didn’t hastily counterattack.

Secondly, Lu Chen’s spear techniques seemed to hit every one of his flaws, further dwindling his desire to counter.

But being suppressed throughout the fight, even with his stable mindset, he was slowly becoming anxious.

He didn’t know if Lu Chen would suddenly unleash a deadly attack next time!

"I can only go all out now, it’s better than losing!"

Being a Sword Cultivator, he never lacked the courage for a do-or-die battle.

Wu Chiren was just the same, except that he had underestimated Lu Chen before.

Now, he had changed his attitude. He couldn’t believe that with the dean present, Lu Chen really had the power to slay him?

With that thought, Wu Chiren focused entirely, deflecting Lu Chen’s attacks that surged like tidal waves, while looking for any stiffness in the continuous moves.

Finally, after several exchanges, he discovered that Lu Chen seemed to lack the strength to continue, with the spear tip actually touching the ground!

"What a good opportunity!"

A glint flashed in his eyes, and he also noticed the dean in the distance from the corner of his eye.

Isn’t this the best chance to kill Lu Chen?

If he missed it, who knew when the next opportunity would come!

With that thought, Wu Chiren took a sword step decisively, driving his sword between Lu Chen’s hands!

He guessed that Lu Chen might be powerless during a change in moves. Aim for this position, and he could also adapt to strike at Lu Chen’s other hand!

But as soon as the sword left his hand, Wu Chiren’s face suddenly changed!

He saw a sneer emerging on the corner of Lu Chen’s mouth!
