"You two, go and inform Teacher Jin. I'll go and take a look!"
Li Bo gave the order.
Jin Mujie divided the teams, but she didn't assign a leader. It wasn't that she didn't think of this, but rather, she did this intentionally. It was because those students with leadership abilities would gradually reveal their talents in such adventures.
Li Bo was such a student. He wasn't tall and looked a little thin. However, he was extremely calm when faced with problems and was very responsible.
"I'll go with you!"
The other students in the same team also stood up one after another.
"Go!"
Li Bo led a group of classmates and immediately chased after them. Just as they left the campsite, they met Zhang Qianlin.
"It's time for dinner. What are you going to do?"
Zhang Qianlin frowned.
"Teacher Zhang, Tan Lu has gone to the Myriad Daos Academy's campsite. It seems like he wants to challenge that Fei Tong to wash away his humiliation!"
Li Bo replied.
"What?"
Zhang Qianlin frowned. He had originally thought highly of this student, but after hearing these words, he was greatly disappointed.
Did Tan Lu not even have the most basic ability to judge things? It was a good thing that a young man didn't want to admit defeat, but he shouldn't have acted so rashly.
"Go!"
Although Zhang Qianlin didn't like Tan Lu anymore, this concerned the students' safety. Therefore, he still took the initiative to take on this responsibility.
…
In the Myriad Dao's camp, the fragrance of meat filled the air.
Fang Wuan had brought his personal students to hunt three moose. Hence, they were currently holding a barbecue feast.
Tan Lu walked closer. The Central Province Academy's uniform he was wearing immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Two guys came up and blocked Tan Lu's path.
Because the students of the Myriad Daos Academy were watching the match between Tan Lu and Fei Tong, they had personally witnessed Tan Lu's defeat. Therefore, these two guys didn't stand on ceremony when they spoke to Tan Lu.
Both parties were mortal enemies from the same city to begin with. Moreover, Tan Lu was a loser. Therefore, the students of the Myriad Daos Academy felt an overwhelming sense of superiority.
"Look for Fei Tong!"
Tan Lu spoke concisely.
"Why are you looking for Brother Fei?"
Ren Guang questioned.
As Fei Tong had defeated Tan Lu cleanly that day, he had gained quite a bit of reputation. Right now, he was also one of the celebrities in this student group.
"Challenge!"
Tan Lu's gaze passed by the guy in front of him and looked toward the guy who was chatting happily with a girl while roasting meat. It was Fei Tong.
The nearby students were stunned for a moment before they started laughing. Was this guy's brain damaged? It had only been less than a week since he lost the duel, and he was challenging him again. Wasn't he embarrassed enough?
Generally speaking, if one wanted to improve their strength, they would need to train hard for at least a few months.
If it was in the past, Tan Lu might get angry. However, after hearing Sun Mo's words, he was very calm now.
Today's duel was not about glory. It was just to prove that his talent in saber techniques was greater than his spear techniques.
Tan Lu smiled softly and walked past the guy.
"Ugh!"
Ren Guang had wanted to put out his hand to stop Tan Lu, but when he saw the confident smile on Tan Lu's face, his heart skipped a beat for some reason. He actually felt that given Tan Lu's spirit, energy, and spirit, it wasn't impossible for him to challenge Fei Tong again.
"Hey, stop!"
Some students tried to stop them.
"Forget it, let him challenge Brother Fei. Brother Fei won't lose anyway!"
Ren Guang stopped him.
A group of students from the Myriad Daos Academy came over to join in the fun.
Tan Lu ignored them and didn't panic at all. He walked up to Fei Tong and cupped his fists. "Student Fei, I'm Tan Lu and I'm here to challenge you!"
The smile on Fei Tong's face retracted. He played with the bamboo skewer and assessed Tan Lu, shaking his head. "I'm not fighting. There's no meaning to it."
"That's right. Brother Fei defeated this guy cleanly that day. Even if he were to fight again, he wouldn't accumulate any battle experience."
"Is this guy retarded? Why is he here again? Does he feel that his defeat that day wasn't embarrassing enough? "
"The Central Province Academy's dog has run out. Is no one going to do anything about it?"
The Myriad Daos Academy's students ridiculed him.
Tan Lu's expression didn't change. He looked at Fei Tong and spoke again, "Please guide me!"
Fei Tong retracted his contempt and frowned slightly. He probed, "It seems that you've grown a lot during these few days. It's no wonder that you dare to challenge me!"
"It's all thanks to Teacher Sun's guidance. I've gained a lot!"
Tan Lu didn't hide anything.
"Teacher Sun?"
The students were surprised, but they no longer mocked him. It was because Tan Lu didn't show any resentment or anger. His expression was calm, and the aura he displayed did give off the demeanor of an expert.
"Alright, let's fight again then. But this time around, we're going to bet something!"
Fei Tong exerted pressure. He wouldn't do meaningless things.
"Alright!"
Tan Lu nodded and took out a small wooden box the size of an egg from his pocket. "There's an intermediate-grade heaven-tier origin nurturing pill inside. If I lose, it'll be yours."
Fei Tong's eyes immediately lit up.
Sssss!
Hearing Tan Lu's words, the gazes of the surrounding students landed on the wooden box. To think that it was an intermediate-grade heaven-tier pill? An origin nurturing pill of this level was very expensive and was very beneficial to the body. It was most suitable for body-refinement realm cultivators to consume.
"Brother Fei is going to earn a lot this time around!"
Someone felt envious. It was because no matter how they looked at it, Fei Tong would win this battle.
Ren Guang nodded, but he felt a hint of worry in his heart.
"What's going on?"
Hearing the commotion here, Teacher Amen of the Myriad Daos Academy immediately rushed over. After hearing his student's description, Fang Wuan immediately let out a cold snort. "Fei Tong, agree to his challenge!"
"Why aren't you eating?"
Fang Wuji was curious. Given his judgment, he could tell that this student hadn't leveled up yet. By right, since he was here to challenge Tan Lu and wash away his humiliation, he should have leveled up first. Only then would he be able to win for sure.
"I originally wanted to eat it, but after hearing Teacher Sun's words, I feel that there's no need for that." Tan Lu was from a major clan after all. Although he felt a little nervous when facing such a scene, he wasn't at a loss. "Moreover, I feel that if I want Student Fei to agree to my challenge, there's definitely a need to bet something!"
"Arrogant!"
Fang Wuan's lips twitched. "Fei Tong, teach him a good lesson!"
Fang Wuji nodded, admiring this answer very much. He had wanted to tell Fei Tong to go all out and not underestimate his opponent, but he didn't say it in the end.
Because of his earlier victory, Fei Tong's ego had become inflated during these few days. This wasn't good. Hence, it was better to let Fei Tong lose a round to learn his lesson.
"I... I..."
Fei Tong was conflicted. He couldn't take out an equivalent bet. As a youth, he still wanted face and didn't want others to feel that the bet was unfair.
Tan Lu had clearly guessed this. He shrugged. "If you lose, just give me your blade!"
"If Fei Tong loses, I'll give you an average-grade heaven-tier origin nurturing pill as well as his blade!"
Fang Wuji spoke up. He was someone who liked fairness.
Hearing this, the surrounding students immediately cast envious gazes toward Fei Tong. This fellow was highly regarded by Teacher Fang! To think that Teacher Fang was willing to take out a peak-grade origin nurturing pill for him.
"Teacher, I won't lose!"
Fei Tong guaranteed.
The campsite was very big. Everyone immediately spread out, revealing an empty space that was the size of half a football field. It was convenient for the two of them to fight.
"Tan Lu, what are you doing?"
Zhang Qianlin rushed over. "Follow me back!"
"Teacher, I want to fight him!"
Tan Lu explained.
"Nonsense!"
Zhang Qianlin thought to himself. (How many days has it been since you lost to him? Have you forgotten? Even if you want to challenge him, you should cultivate for a few more months!)
"Tan Lu, let's go!"
Li Bo persuaded.
"Teacher Zhang, this battle has already been decided. Please don't create trouble. You can either watch from the side or leave!"
Fang Wuan stared at Zhang Qianlin with great hostility.
"Why? You want to fight against me? "
As a genius, Zhang Qianlin naturally had his pride.
"If Teacher Zhang is interested, I'll fight against you after this battle ends!"
Fang Wuji looked at Zhang Qianlin. He had heard of this person before. He was Zhang Hanfu's most doted son and was quite capable.
"Teacher Fang, do the teachers and students of the Myriad Daos Academy not know anything else other than fighting?"
Zhang Qianlin mocked. At this moment, he had a feeling that he was invincible despite being in the enemy's camp. He really wanted to crush all of these fellows.
"Stop wasting time. The barbecued meat is about to get burnt. Fei Tong, Tan Lu, let's begin!"
Fang Wuji urged.
"Tan Lu, level four of the body-refinement realm. Please guide me!"
"Fei Tong, level four of the body-refinement realm. Please guide me!"
After the two of them spoke, they were about to pounce toward each other but were stopped by Zhang Qianlin.
"Wait a minute!"
Zhang Qianlin didn't understand. "Tan Lu, where's your silver spear? Why did you change it to a short blade? "
Because Zhang Qianlin had wanted to take Tan Lu in as his disciple previously, he understood Tan Lu's situation. Tan Lu's family-inherited spear art was very powerful.
"Teacher Zhang, from today onward, I'll be using a blade!"
Tan Lu smiled and then charged toward Fei Tong.
"You..."
Zhang Qianlin was dumbfounded.
Swoosh!
Fei Tong and Tan Lu instantly stuck close to each other. They then drew their blades at the same time and slashed out.
Ding!
The two blades collided, letting out a clear metallic sound of anxiousness.
"Hmmm?"
Fei Tong was shocked. Previously, when he drew his blade and slashed out, he managed to gain the upper hand. But this time around, he was actually being suppressed by his opponent!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The two blades kept on colliding, sending out sparks. The two of them fought with speed, and their speed instantly soared to the limits.
In the eyes of the spectating students, their bodies flashed and the blade shadows circled around them.
"Hmmm?"
Li Bo was shocked as well. This time around, Tan Lu wasn't suppressed like before. Instead, he was fighting very well. What was going on?
Sounds of discussion rang out in the surroundings.
"It's because the situation is different from the previous time, right?"
Fang Wuji asked.
"Mn!"
Fang Wuan frowned. "He has only changed his weapon. How could there be such a huge improvement?"
"The knot in his heart has been untied. Look at his expression. He's enjoying the battle. As for winning or losing, he probably hasn't considered it at all."
Fang Wuji explained.
Right now, Tan Lu was holding onto a short blade as if he was holding his lover's hand. He felt very comfortable in his heart. No matter what move he executed, he would be able to execute it perfectly.
In the past, when he used a spear, he would always feel awkward and unsatisfactory. Even if he gave it his all, it would always be lacking a little something. But now, he could casually execute the thoughts in his heart.
"I can still be faster!"
Tan Lu's confidence rose, and his attacks became smoother. Although his moves weren't exquisite enough, why would he need to be exquisite when fighting against a student at the fourth level of the body-refinement realm?
Effort, will, aura, being able to unleash everything he had learned and make use of his body to the limits was already an 80% win.
"It's impossible for me to lose to someone who has already lost to me!"
Fei Tong let out an explosive bellow and executed his ultimate technique!
