Chapter 325: Chapter 93 Summons

In the eastern region of Changle Village lies an ancient and elegant residence.

At this moment, in the inner courtyard’s martial arts arena, a young woman in a white gauze dress is gracefully wielding a long sword. Her movements are as agile as a butterfly, dancing elegantly in the wind.

She has a delicate beauty, with captivating peach blossom eyes. Yet, no one dares to underestimate this seemingly fragile woman.

This woman, Chen Lanxi, is renowned alongside Lan Tingjun, Ji Chuisong, and others; she is also a likely candidate to enter the Baiyan City’s list of prodigies.

As her sword moved, countless petals followed her sword moves, creating a spectacular shower of flowers that enveloped her, making a stunning display.

Before long, she withdrew her sword, and numerous petals fell to the ground like a carpet.

The maid by her side saw her pause and approached to report the day’s news.

"Miss, the most astonishing news today is certainly about Lin Yuan."

"Oh? What makes it so astonishing?" Chen Lanxi spun her sword in a flourish, seemingly pondering her moves, and said casually.

"This person was originally unknown, ranking around seventy at Xuri Martial Academy, but today he made a stunning debut, defeating An Xisong in one blow, leaving everyone astonished." The maid’s eyes flashed with admiration: "I heard he has only been in the academy for less than half a year."

"Only half a year?" Chen Lanxi immediately paused, and after a moment of contemplation, she agreed: "This person must have comprehended the third level of intent to crush An Xisong. Such talent is indeed exceptional."

After speaking, Chen Lanxi stretched out her slender fingers to stroke the sword’s blade, feeling the Sword Qi within.

Comprehending the third realm indeed has such an effect. But at her level, it doesn’t leave a particularly deep impression. The third realm is merely an entry point, with a long road ahead.

"This person defeated An Xisong and even expressed that tomorrow he will challenge Xu Jinyu." The maid’s eyes showed curiosity.

This person is certainly very bold.

It’s known that Xu Jinyu is no comparison to An Xisong. He has been immersed in the third realm for many years, absolutely not someone who can be defeated with just a single stroke of understanding the third realm.

"Challenge Xu Jinyu?" A hint of doubt appeared in Chen Lanxi’s eyes.

Where does his confidence come from?

If he had stopped after defeating An Xisong, achieving a stunning debut, she could understand. But why challenge Xu Jinyu again? Is it arrogance, or a desire to stand out?

Chen Lanxi pondered for a moment, then laughed and said: "With nothing better to do, let’s go watch tomorrow."

*************

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan had just sent Wei Junli back and was summoned by the long-browed Taoist.

At this moment, the long-browed Taoist felt both pleased and uneasy.

A quarter-hour ago, when he had received the message, he felt his heart almost couldn’t bear it.

Lin Yuan defeated An Xisong? Jumped from seventieth to fifth?

The long-browed Taoist stroked his beard; upon seeing the news, he had pulled out three of his beard hairs in disbelief.

"That little rascal really knows how to stir things up."

The long-browed Taoist sighed inwardly, but as he continued reading, his complexion changed again.

"Challenge Xu Jinyu?"

"Lin Yuan, simply reckless."

The long-browed Taoist’s eyebrows twitched, and he angrily reprimanded in his heart: "That Xu Jinyu is hardly comparable to An Xisong!"

As he was thinking of ways to make Lin Yuan back out, he was suddenly taken aback in his thoughts.

Memories floated up in his mind.

This scenario was so similar to when he had just entered Black Dragon Lake.

Back then, he also wanted to stop him, but Lin Yuan’s subsequent performance shocked everyone.

"Could it be, this kid is confident of succeeding?" The long-browed Taoist furrowed his brows into a river-shaped mark, "Yet, given his style, he certainly wouldn’t advance blindly!"

Thinking of this, the long-browed Taoist’s eyes widened as he was astonished: "This kid, truly is."

"Could he really be aiming for Baiyan City?"

For a moment, the long-browed Taoist opened his mouth but was at a loss for words.

As Lin Yuan entered the long-browed Taoist’s courtyard, Xu Ling was waiting outside.

When he saw Lin Yuan, his gaze carried an unusual expression.

Xu Ling jokingly interrupted, blocking Lin Yuan’s path: "Lin Yuan, tell me honestly, when did you enter the third realm?"

Lin Yuan clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Not to hide from Senior Brother, in Liu Village, I had some realization."

Upon hearing this, Xu Ling was momentarily stunned.

Recalling his previous efforts to protect Lin Yuan, little did he know his abilities were already not much weaker than his own.

Xu Ling punched Lin Yuan on the chest: "You rascal, still need me to protect you?"

Lin Yuan had no choice but to apologize with clasped hands.

Xu Ling waved his hand and laughed heartily: "Go, Master is waiting for you in the study."

Lin Yuan bid farewell to Xu Ling and knocked on the long-browed Taoist’s study door.

"Master."

The long-browed Taoist carefully inspected Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan remained silent, quietly standing in the study.

After a while, the long-browed Taoist finally smiled and said: "You are calm in action, I won’t say much else."

"I’ll simply ask you one thing, how confident are you in defeating Xu Jinyu?"

The long-browed Taoist thought about it and clutched his sword behind.

If his disciple has more than a fifty percent certainty, it’s not worth making him suffer too much.

As he was preparing to encourage him with a few words, Lin Yuan once again made his heart tremble violently.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yuan calmly replied: "Reporting to Master."

"About ninety-nine percent."

To claim a hundred percent would be too arrogant, making oneself seem overly conceited.

Ninety-nine percent is just right.

The long-browed Taoist’s old eyes widened, doubting his ears: "How much?"

"Master, ninety-nine percent."

Lin Yuan replied calmly.

The long-browed Taoist was astounded, his heart in turmoil.

After a while, he collected his thoughts and said: "Disciple, come over here. Let me spar with you."

The long-browed Taoist’s gaze slightly darkened: "It seems merely teaching martial arts isn’t enough, character also needs refining."

Today I will teach you what humility is.

"I’ll suppress this kid and make him calm down."

The long-browed Taoist’s mind raced.

After suppressing his power to the initial stage of Ling Yuan, he smiled: "Disciple, I will use the peak strength of the Meridians Realm to find your weaknesses, so you don’t get caught by Xu Jinyu tomorrow."

Lin Yuan nodded secretly.

The long-browed Taoist really spares no effort on him.

But now, having enough confidence against the Ling Yuan initial stage, he still wouldn’t reveal it all to the long-browed Taoist.

Thus, he decided to use fifty percent of his strength against the long-browed Taoist in the Meridians Realm.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan clasped his fists: "Thank you, Master."

Moments later, crackling noises echoed from the study.

With the noise quieted, Lin Yuan opened the study door, with several footprints on him.

"You kid, get out." The long-browed Taoist’s angry voice came from inside, "Don’t come to see me unless you beat Xu Jinyu badly tomorrow."

As he spoke, the long-browed Taoist clutched his waist, cursing: "My old waist, why doesn’t this kid show some respect for the elderly?"

Lin Yuan shut the door and left in a rush.

After he couldn’t hear any sounds, he brushed off the footprints from his body.

Lin Yuan touched his nose, puzzled: "How could Master’s Meridian Realm peak be so powerful? I needed eighty percent strength to suppress it? Could it be that martial understanding is a higher level at Ling Yuan Realm versus the Meridian Realm?"

After Lin Yuan disappeared, the long-browed Taoist laughed heartily.

"A genius, truly a genius. Comparable to the great disciple Lu Rong!"

Thinking of this, the long-browed Taoist contemplated for a moment, then his gaze became resolute as he made a decision.

He sat at his desk, took pen to paper, and began writing swiftly.

In that instant, the study was filled with the sound of the pen against paper.

Meanwhile, as Lin Yuan’s opponent for tomorrow, Xu Jinyu received a handwritten letter from the principal.

"You want me to severely injure Lin Yuan tomorrow?" Xu Jinyu chuckled lightly.

He had the same intention.

A person who has just stepped into the third realm wants to exploit his reputation for fame.

As the top person in Ling Zhen Martial Academy, can he be so easily grasped?

"Your plans aimed at me, I’ll smash all your schemes!"

A cold light flashed in Xu Jinyu’s eyes.
