CHAPTER 53
First Challenge
On Long Chen's first day at the Royal School, he had already attracted a crowd of onlookers.
Xie Fei didn't expect that Zheng Fang and Yan Li, who had always been the strictest, would plead for mercy for Long Chen. However, when he recalled the punch in the morning, Xie Fei sneered and said, "Today, unless he kneels down and kowtows to me, this matter won't be over!"
"I think you're a pretty good gatekeeper. At least you look like a dog …" Long Chen stared at Xie Fei and said calmly.
Hiss!
The surrounding people sighed. This Long Chen really wanted to die. He actually dared to provoke Xie Fei with his words.
Xie Fei's face instantly darkened. He was the nephew of the Zhenyuan General, and the Zhenyuan General commanded a large number of troops in the Imperial Capital. He also had many disciples in the Imperial College, so most people in the Imperial College had to give him some face. He didn't think that Long Chen would dare to curse him in front of so many people. This made him feel an unprecedented humiliation.
"According to the academy's rules, I, Qiu Qian, will challenge you today for 1000 points. If you refuse, you will have to hand over 500 points. As such, I will not be able to challenge you for the next 10 days!"
A young man standing behind Xie Fei sneered when he saw that Long Chen didn't know when to back down.
According to the rules of the Royal School, students were not prohibited from challenging each other. If one were to reject a challenge, one would have to pay 500 points. If one were to reject a challenge, the other party would not be able to challenge the same person within 10 days.
Of course, they could also choose to accept the challenge. After all, it was forbidden for students to kill each other. After all, almost all of these people had some background.
Once they accepted the challenge, no matter who won or lost, they would not be allowed to duel again for three months.
However, if there were no points left and someone still challenged him, he would have to accept the challenge.
The purpose of these rules was to encourage the students to increase their cultivation without harming their lives. It was a kind of behavior that the academy encouraged.
"Qiu Qian entered the Royal College a few months ago. He is the son of a Chiliarch under the Zhenyuan General. He is only 20 years old, but he has already reached the third level of the Spiritual Martial Realm. Furthermore, he has mastered the Transmutation Blade Technique and the Battlefield Movement Technique. He is extremely difficult to deal with."
"The Primeval Saber Technique is a Level Six Spirit Level Martial Skill. His Body Technique is also a Level Five Spirit Level Martial Skill. This Long Chen was obviously recruited from a remote place in the so-called Three Cities Competition a few days ago. I'm afraid that he hasn't seen many Spirit Level Martial Skills. Even if he is at the Level Four Spirit Martial Realm, I'm afraid that he will only be defeated."
…
Everybody was shaking their heads and sighing. All the students of the Imperial University had come to the Imperial City. In the Imperial City, there were far more resources than in other cities. Cultivators who were twenty years old and had broken through to the third Ling Qi layer were considered average.
With Qiu Qian's strength, his movement technique, and his saber technique to the Great Accomplishment stage, he would probably be able to compete for first place in the Grand Competition of the Three Cities in other cities.
Although the people in front of them could see that Long Chen was the champion of the Three Cities Competition, they did not care much. After all, he was only about 16 years old.
Long Chen turned a deaf ear to everyone's words. He stared at Qiu Qian and said, "I accept your challenge, but I remember that the academy can increase the points of the bet by challenging each other …"
When Qiu Qian heard that Long Chen actually accepted the challenge, he was instantly stunned, and then he said with a strange expression, "You still want to increase the bet points?"
Long Chen chuckled and said, "Why? You don't dare?"
"Haha, I don't dare? Today, I'll bet however many points you have! "Qiu Qian immediately laughed out loud.
Xie Fei sneered and said, "Country bumpkin, this is not some remote city, idiot …"
Zheng Fang was also speechless. She only felt that Long Chen did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. This was the Imperial University. Although Qiu Qian had just entered the Imperial University, his cultivation was still considered average. He had a great advantage against people who had just entered the Imperial University.
Zheng Fang was just about to say something to persuade him again when Long Chen walked to his side and said indifferently, "Lend me three thousand points. When I win later, I'll give you half of it."
"…"
"…"
Hearing Long Chen's words, the surrounding people were completely dumbfounded. How confident was this guy, or was he just ignorant?
Zheng Fang was also stunned. Li Yuan quickly pulled the corner of Zheng Fang's clothes and said, "The two of us have done twenty missions, and we only have three thousand points each. You have to think carefully."
In addition to challenging each other, there were many things in the Imperial University that could earn points, such as killing monsters and completing missions from the Mission Hall.
Zheng Fang hesitated for a moment, but finally shook her head. She was still reluctant to part with the three thousand points in her hands. Long Chen smiled bitterly and did not say anything. Originally, he thought that although Zheng Fang had a bit of a missy's temper, she was not a bad person. Moreover, she was Elder Zheng's granddaughter. He wanted to let him earn some points to kill two birds with one stone. Now that she did not agree, he naturally would not force her.
Long Chen said and walked up to Qiu Qian. He was ready to say that he would only bet his own one thousand points.
"I have three thousand points here for you, but no matter if you win or lose, you have to come to the Purple Jade Restaurant tonight …"
No one would have thought that after Zheng Fang rejected him, Yan Li would actually stand up and hand over the points jade from her waist to Long Chen.
The teachers in the Imperial University also had points jade, but their points were fixed by the Imperial University. They could not rely on other methods to obtain points. As for how to use these points, it was naturally their own business.
Long Chen stared at Yan Li with a little surprise. Finally, he took the points jade and transferred three thousand points to his own jade.
Seeing the value of the jade in his hand become four thousand, Long Chen could not help but smile slightly. However, he also knew that Yan Li's move was just to get the specific method of using the Wind Condensation Array from him. Three thousand points was really not a lot, so he did not feel uncomfortable in his heart.
"Well, I'll bet four thousand points!" Long Chen stared at Qiu Qian and said lightly.
Qiu Qian stared at the points jade in Long Chen's hand. His face was a little red because of excitement. Four thousand points was not a small number.
Qiu Qian immediately stepped forward and said with a smile, "Boy, let me see what cultivation you have. How dare you be so arrogant!"
As Qiu Qian's voice fell, a long sword suddenly appeared in his right hand. Behind him, three Dragon-Elephant illusions suddenly spread out. The Primeval Sword Art was mainly firm and fierce, but it also had the meaning of accepting all rivers into the sea. Qiu Qian had practiced for many years and had already reached the realm of Great Accomplishment. When he used the sword, it looked as if it was weak like water, but in fact, it was firm and fierce!
The sword slashed from left to right, bringing bursts of wild wind. This slash was close to four thousand kilograms, comparable to the strength of the fourth level of the Spiritual Martial Realm!
Long Chen was slightly surprised. He secretly thought that the Imperial University was indeed worthy of being called the Imperial University. If such a person at the third level of the Spiritual Martial Realm did not meet him and Li Yuanwu, he would be able to take first place in any of the Three Cities Tournament.
With a move of his hand, the Purple Vein Sword appeared in his hand. Immediately, two Dragon-Elephant illusions appeared behind Long Chen and blocked with his sword. At the same time, a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
"To defeat this person, one move is enough. But if it's like this, I'm afraid that the other person will not dare to challenge …"
