286: Chapter 270: Battle Against Jun Wuxie_1 286: Chapter 270: Battle Against Jun Wuxie_1 His shout, infused with the power of Inner Strength, had everyone in attendance holding their ears, resonating so much that many of the weaker spectators couldn’t resist covering their ears.
“As expected of the Profound Sect’s Great Elder’s chief disciple, just this aura alone is incomparable to that of ordinary people.
That yell just now nearly scared me to death.”
“I really have no idea where this guy Lu Chuan gets the guts to accept Jun Wuxie’s challenge.
If it were me, I would have run away a long time ago!”
“It’s said that Jun Wuxie is already a master of Profound Realm Level 3, a height that many martial practitioners can only look up to for their entire lives, yet he has reached this level at such a young age, truly admirable indeed.”
The crowd was abuzz with discussion, clearly favoring Jun Wuxie, the Great Elder’s disciple, over Lu Chuan.
At this moment, Zhao Shouren and his son, along with Sun Guocheng and others, also arrived.
They were holding banners they had made in advance, planning to promote their martial club as soon as Jun Wuxie defeated Lu Chuan, expecting to achieve unexpected results.
As Sun Guocheng glanced at Li Jun standing among the Jiangbei Province Martial Arts Association’s crowd, a contemptuous smile appeared on his face, saying, “We have been businessmen all our lives, doing everything for profit.
Li Jun talks about sentiment at this time, what a hypocrite, but this is good too, one less person to share the profits, and we will earn more.
Once he loses that one billion, he will understand what it’s like to feel the pain.”
“Lu Chuan’s here!” someone shouted suddenly.
The crowd turned their heads one after another.
Lu Chuan made his way to the training hall at a leisurely pace.
Compared to Jun Wuxie’s aggressive entrance, he seemed a bit too ordinary.
He seems pretty average.
I thought if he dared to accept Jun Wuxie’s challenge, he would at least have some confidence, but it looks like I was wrong?”
“Compared to Jun Wuxie, Lu Chuan indeed looks somewhat unimpressive.
However, to be able to secure the position of Chairman for the Jiangbei Province Martial Arts Association, he must have some abilities, right?”
“It could be that he got this position through connections.
This duel looks like it’s lacking any suspense.”
Zou Baicheng, hearing the one-sided discussions, had his expression grow more solemn.
However, recalling the things Lu Chuan had done before, which seemingly impossible, each and every one had indeed been accomplished by Lu Chuan.
So, he still chose to believe in Lu Chuan.
This new chairman must be capable of creating miracles!
Full of excitement, Han Qingci shouted, “Brother Lu Chuan, do your best!”
Lu Chuan then came face to face with Jun Wuxie.
Jun Wuxie stared at Lu Chuan for a moment and said coldly, “Kid, hand over the Azure Flood Dragon Sword.
It belongs to my master.
What gives you the right to take it away?”
A brow raised, Lu Chuan had initially thought Jun Wuxie had come to challenge him because Mu Laogui had been killed by him, and the Great Elder, furious and humiliated, had sent Jun Wuxie over.
Now it seemed he had thought too much.
Taking out the Azure Flood Dragon Sword, he asked, “This sword belongs to the Great Elder?”
“Correct!” said Jun Wuxie.
“This sword is a rare Divine Weapon.
In this world, only my master is worthy to wield it.
You are trash unworthy of holding it!”
Lu Chuan began to laugh, saying, “I think you might be mistaken.
This sword was not taken by me; it came to me willingly, which means I’m qualified to hold it.”
Jun Wuxie cursed, “Bullshit!
You think I’m a three-year-old kid, to believe such a low-level excuse?”
As if proving Lu Chuan’s point, the Azure Flood Dragon Sword emitted a soft hum of Sword Qi that shot out, expressing its dissatisfaction.
Jun Wuxie’s expression changed.
He had heard from the Great Elder that the Azure Flood Dragon Sword was a Divine Weapon that had developed a certain degree of consciousness.
Without its endorsement, its miraculous abilities could not be stimulated.
The scene that had just unfolded was clear evidence of the Azure Flood Dragon Sword’s own volition, indicating that Lu Chuan indeed had earned its recognition.
“Could it really be that the Azure Flood Dragon Sword has chosen its master by itself?” Jun Wuxie narrowed his eyes, a tinge of jealousy rising in his heart.
The Great Elder had made it clear that although Jun Wuxie was exceptionally talented, he was far from being qualified to gain the recognition of the Azure Flood Dragon Sword.
Now, seeing Lu Chuan trigger its extraordinary power, he naturally felt a sense of unwillingness.
“Hmph, even if the Azure Flood Dragon Sword has really approved of you, what does it matter?
As long as I kill you today, I can prove I am a hundred times stronger than you!”
Jun Wuxie no longer hesitated, he picked up his long knife and charged straight at Lu Chuan.
“Boy, today I shall punish you on behalf of my master, you who knows not the gravity of death!”
An invisible pressure spread out, causing everyone around who was watching the heated battle to feel a twinge of fear.
Lu Chuan didn’t dare to neglect, and immediately, holding the Azure Flood Dragon Sword, met Jun Wuxie’s attack head on.
Their weapons collided, unleashing infinite power.
In just a few breaths’ time, the two had exchanged over a hundred blows.
Jun Wuxie, sensing Lu Chuan’s realm, showed surprise, “Profound Realm Level 2?”
When he was of Lu Chuan’s age, he was still diligently working within the Transcendent Realm, and seeing Lu Chuan so young yet having reached Profound Realm Level 2, his jealousy deepened even further.
“Profound Realm Level 2?
No matter, it is still a realm lower than mine.
With each level ascended in the Profound Realm, the strength is as different as the heavens and the earth.
Killing you is as simple as slaughtering a chicken!”
He used all his strength and fiercely swung his knife toward Lu Chuan.
Due to the disparity in their realms, Lu Chuan for a moment truly did not know how to block the strike.
Seeing this, Jun Wuxie’s face displayed a cold smile, thinking that the suppression of realms ultimately let him easily gain the upper hand.
With this knife strike, you will certainly be severely injured!
But Lu Chuan appeared composed, and surprisingly, the Azure Flood Dragon Sword in his hand made no move to block, instead stabbing towards Jun Wuxie’s shoulder.
Everyone who witnessed the scene was filled with astonishment, especially those whose strength had reached a certain level.
“Has Lu Chuan gone mad?
The power of this knife strike is boundless, he can’t defend against it, that’s one thing, but he’s not even retreating quickly to dodge, instead he’s going head on.
Isn’t he afraid this strike will take his life?”
“Tsk tsk, this kid just can’t compare with the genius nurtured by the Profound Sect.
He still deludes himself into thinking he can stab Jun Wuxie, not realizing that before that, he’ll be grievously injured by the knife strike.
This action is simply seeking death!”
Jun Wuxie hadn’t expected Lu Chuan to not even think about dodging his strike, and a smirk involuntarily crept across his lips.
If Lu Chuan had chosen to dodge, at worst he would’ve been gravely injured, by not dodging, death was certain!
“Do you think you can withstand my strike with your flesh?
Don’t be naive, now you have no chance of survival!”
Jun Wuxie said with a laugh, putting even more force into his swing.
The next second, his knife heavily struck upon Lu Chuan’s chest.
With a clanging sound.
The bloody scene everyone imagined didn’t occur.
Jun Wuxie’s knife collided with Lu Chuan’s body, producing a sound as if metal struck metal.
After that, the knife broke into two pieces.
Lu Chuan’s clothing was cut through, but the skin beneath remained unscathed, not even a trace was left!
