Chapter 128: Lonely Forest

  Chi Minghai was thoroughly enraged and rushed out, saying: "Who are you saying is not ambitious? Do you dare to fight me?"

  That new disciple from the East Wing raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, saying: "Your cultivation is too weak, you're not worthy of fighting me."

  Upon hearing this, the female students in the Western Courtyard also revealed a cold and angry expression, showing great dissatisfaction, thinking that the new student from the Eastern Courtyard was too arrogant.

  Chi Minghai is still one of the top ten newcomers in the Western Academy, yet the other party said that Chi Minghai is not worthy of fighting him, isn't that slapping the Western Academy in the face?

  Whoosh

  Akane Hino could no longer bear it and drew out a seven-foot-long purple blade.

  With a clenched fist on the hilt, he urged his true energy to drag out a long, long blade of light and slash it towards that new student in the East Courtyard.

  The newborn at the East Courtyard slightly hooked up the corner of his mouth, revealing a hint of a disdainful smile, as if waiting for Chi Minghai to make a move.

  "Welcome"

  He swiftly extended one finger and channeled his true energy to the tip of it.

  A white sword energy flew out from his fingertips.

  "Boom"

  The sword energy collided with the blade of the Ziyuan War Knife, producing a loud noise and sending the Ziyuan War Knife flying out.

  Akane's arms were numb from the shock, her five fingers felt like they were about to break off.

  Suddenly, a figure flashed before his eyes, and before Akatsuki could react, a foot kicked him in the chest.

  "Slap"

  The sound of rib fractures echoed.

  Chi Ming spat out a mouthful of blood, like a kite with a broken string flying backwards, his whole body as if it had lost all its strength, lying on the ground, unable to crawl up.

  The new student from the East House stared at Chi Minghai, shaking his head and sighing: "I originally thought that the male students of the West House were just inferior in talent, so they couldn't compare to the female students. Now it seems that the male students of the West House don't even have brains, they're too impulsive."

  The new students of Xi Yuan were all shocked. Chi Ming Hai was one of the top ten newcomers in Xi Yuan, but he was defeated by his opponent in just two moves and seriously injured.

  The newcomers in the East Courtyard are all so powerful

  The new student joint martial arts competition hasn't even started yet, and the Western Academy has already lost a talented newcomer, greatly dampening their morale. The mood of the Western Academy's newcomers collectively sank low, deeply shocked by the power of that one Eastern Academy newcomer.

  "A disciple of the Western Yard shouted angrily: 'Your hands are too ruthless, today is the joint martial arts competition for new students from the four yards, you have seriously injured Brother Chi Ming, how can he participate in the competition?'"

  That new student from the East Wing smiled and said, "Everyone saw it clearly, he was the one who made the first move, I just retaliated. Shouldn't we blame him for being too impulsive? Giving him some lessons is a good thing for him."

  The deputy master of the East Wing and several old men did not intervene, but stood aside to watch the show.

  If relying solely on a new book can suppress the morale of the Western Academy, it's not necessarily a bad thing.

  Liu Chengfeng shouted in a shrill voice, "So what if you defeated the new student from the East Wing? It's not like it's impressive to defeat one of our new students from the West Wing!"

  "What is his new book in Dongyuan"

  "It turns out he's Dongyuan's new student, Lin, the first loner. No wonder he's so formidable."

  "Dugu Lin may be powerful, but our Western Courtyard's new student, Chu Yurou, is no weaker."

  "Zhang Ruochen's innate talent is definitely above Dugu Lin's, but after all, his cultivation is still too low and he can't be Dugu Lin's opponent."

  "Yeah, Zhang Ruochen is mainly too young. If he cultivates for another two years, he can definitely easily crush Dugu Lin. Now, it's not possible."

  Dugu Lin stood with his hands behind his back, looking extraordinary and elegant, exuding an air of heroism. He laughed loudly and said: "I've long heard that the top student in the Western Academy is a remarkable talent, but unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to meet you yet. Zhang Shidi, do you dare come out and fight me?"

  Too arrogant, it's simply provocative.

  Everyone's gaze was fixed on Zhang Ruochen.

  One of them wore a worried expression, while some others were eager for Zhang Ruochen to take action and severely suppress Du Guling's arrogant momentum, venting their anger on behalf of the male students in the Western Academy.

  "Brother Jiu, Chi Minghai just got injured because of his impulsiveness and fell into Dugu Lin's trap. He lost the ability to participate in the martial competition. You must not be impulsive again, Dugu Lin's cultivation has reached the peak of the Xuanji boundary, and he is almost invincible among the new students of the four institutes. If you also lose to him, the morale of the Western Institute will be completely destroyed." Zhang Shaoyu said with great concern.

  Anyone with eyes can see that Dugu Lin just wants to take advantage of the United Martial Arts Competition before it starts, and strike at the morale of the Western Camp.

  He forced Zhang Ruochen out for a battle, just wanting to thoroughly suppress the West Wing.

  It makes sense, but Zhang Ruochen had no choice. If he didn't stand up for himself, wouldn't the other three courts really take him as a coward?

  Zhang Ruochen's face wore a hint of a smile as he walked out from among the many students, standing opposite Dugu Lin and saying: "Dugu Shixiong, you truly live up to your reputation as a young hero. I heard that not long ago, you defeated one of the top ten experts in the Eastern Academy's rankings. It's really admirable."

  When Zhang Ruochen unexpectedly called himself a junior brother, all the students in the Western Campus were dissatisfied and felt that Zhang Ruochen was losing face for the Western Campus.

  In Wu City's Imperial Academy, those with great strength are considered senior brothers, while those with lesser strength are junior brothers.

  Unless there is a significant age difference, they will show respect by addressing each other as "Shixiong" (senior brother).

  But Dugu Lin was obviously here to provoke, and Zhang Ruochen not only called him Shixiong, but also praised him to the sky. The disciples of the Western Academy naturally thought that Zhang Ruochen was timid and afraid of trouble, losing face for the Western Academy.

  Even Huang Yanchen clenched his five fingers, revealing a furious expression, and really wanted to rush up and beat Zhang Ruochen severely.

  Duanmu Xingling grasped Huang Yanchen's sleeve and smiled, "Sister Dust, don't be impatient, let's watch the good show. There's a saying that goes: the higher you hold something up, the more painful it is when it falls."

  Huang Yanchen let out a cold hum, staring fixedly at Zhang Ruochen. If Zhang Ruochen didn't help the West Wing regain its face today, she would definitely drive Zhang Ruochen out of Longwu Hall.

  The new students in the East Wing heard that the new students in the West Wing were calling Dugu Lin "Shixiong" and everyone burst out laughing.

  One of the freshmen from the East dormitory sneered and laughed: "The first freshman in the West dormitory is really good at identifying opportunities, I like people like that."

  "Knowing the times is a hero haha"

  "I heard from the seniors that this year's new students' overall strength in the West Institute is ranked second, and it's our East Institute's arch-rival. I was worried at first, but now it seems my worries were completely unnecessary." The number one master of the East Institute, Xun Guihai, smiled and said.

  Xun Guihai is also a Xuanbang warrior and ranks 14th on the Xuanbang ranking.

  The outer disciples of the Four Great Halls, except for Luo Shuihan, no one was his match.

  Gu Du Lin also revealed a hint of a pleased smile, staring at Zhang Ruocheng, saying: "I am four years older than Zhang Shidi, and Zhang Shidi calls me 'Shixiong'. This is simply the natural order of things, what's there to laugh about?"

  Zhang Ruochen said: "When a younger person calls an older person 'Shixiong', that is the younger person showing respect to the older person. Now, the younger person also wants to be called Shixiong, what should we do?"

  "Of course, we must defeat those who are older than us, and let our strength speak for itself."

  Suddenly, Dugu Lin realized the meaning of Zhang Ruochen's words and solemnly said: "Could it be that Young Master Zhang also wants to be a senior brother?"

  Zhang Ruochen said: "Martial arts cultivation is originally about constantly striving for improvement. While respecting one's predecessors, one must also surpass them. Dugu Shixiong, isn't that right?"

  "If you can really defeat me, I will willingly call you 'older brother'."

  Dugu Lin was quite confident in his own cultivation, but he didn't underestimate the enemy. The true energy inside his body was fully mobilized, reaching its optimal combat state.

  Zhang Ruochen said: "If Dugu Shixiong can withstand my first move, I will admit defeat voluntarily. Everyone is fighting for the honor of the academy, so I'll make the first move."

  As soon as the words fell, Dugu Lin saw Zhang Ruochen, who was originally standing ten zhang away, rushing towards him at high speed. His body suddenly split into two, turning into two figures.

  So fast

  Dugu Lin's face changed, and he manipulated the fierce flame true energy to his palms. His palms were wrapped in flames as he opened his arms and charged towards Zhang Ruochen from both sides.

  "Dragon-shaped shadow"

  Two Zhang Ruochen's shadows simultaneously slapped their palms out, emitting a dragon and elephant harmonious sound.

  The one on the left is Zhang Ruochen, who seems to be making a dragon claw fist, and the one on the right is also Zhang Ruochen, who appears to be making an elephant seal palm.

  "Humming"

  Enduring Zhang Ruochen's two palm strikes, Du Gu Lin's arms' bones were shattered, producing a cracking sound, and he retreated over ten meters back, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

  Zhang Ruochen withdrew his palm and stared at Du Gu Lin, who was hanging down from his arm, saying: "Du Gu Shixiong, do we still need to continue fighting?"

  Both arms fractured, half of Du Gu Lin's body was numb with pain, how could he still have the strength to fight?

  The smiles on the faces of those disciples in the East Wing instantly disappeared, and everyone was like a stone statue, shocked to the point where they couldn't speak.

  With just one move, Dugu Lin was defeated.

  Xun Guihai let out a cold snort and said, "Zhang Ruochen, you've gone too far! You broke Dugu Lin's arms, how can he participate in the Four Institutes' joint martial arts competition now?"

  Zhang Ruochen glanced at Xun Guihai and replied with the words that Dugu Lin had said earlier, "Dugu Shixiong should suffer some setbacks. It's also a good thing for him."

  The students of Xiyuan were all in a state of excitement and euphoria, everyone felt extremely exhilarated and cheered loudly.

  "When Dugu Lin severely injured Chi Minghai, didn't he hold back at all?"

  "You're allowed to take drastic measures in the East Wing, but we're not allowed to retaliate in the West Wing"

  "Everyone can see clearly, the first new student of Dongyuan and the first new student of Xiyuan are fairly matched in a fight, it's just that Dugu Lin is a coward and his cultivation is far inferior to Zhang Shixiong."

  Xun Guihai's eyes turned cold, a strong martial arts aura emanated from his body, and his gaze fiercely stared at the students in the West Wing, especially focusing on Zhang Ruochen.

  Xun returned to the sea, losing to others but not to the formation. Was it that you wanted to compare and compete? At this moment, Huang Yanchen's heart was also extremely relieved. Zhang Ruochen finally gave the West Wing an opportunity to vent their anger, letting the East Wing taste the might of the West Wing.

  Xun Guihai calmed down and said, "Huang Yanchen, I know your strength has increased greatly recently, ranking thirty-first on the Xuan Chart. However, you are still not my match. In two months, during the intermediate relic exploration exam, we will naturally have a chance to compete."

  "I'm waiting" Huang Yanchen gently stroked his snow-white chin, with a cold smile.

  I finally finished writing at 2:30 in the morning, I'm exhausted. First revise one chapter and update, there are two more chapters left, will be updated at noon 12 o'clock. Before sleep, asking for a recommendation vote.
