Chapter 191 Chu Yunfan’s True Strength Was Terrifying
“At the end of last semester, I said that we’d have another chance to meet again,” Lu Xiuran said.
Chu Yunfan nodded.
At the seats of Yucai High, a person clenched his fist and stared at Chu Yunfan. It was Fang Ziyan who had just come out of the infirmary. Previously, he had been angered by Chu Yunfan till he fainted. However, with modern medical technology, he quickly woke up. Other than his internal organs being injured to a certain extent and his arm being shattered, he had not suffered any other injuries. The former was easy to treat, while the latter required a few days to fully recover. Therefore, he was unable to participate in the meet and could only watch from the side while wearing a cast. He looked like he wanted to strangle Chu Yunfan to death.
After Fang Ziyan woke up, he heard that he was famous. In fact, he was extremely famous. All the top experts of the various schools knew that he had been sent flying by Chu Yunfan’s slash and had fainted. This also meant that after today, his name would be spread throughout the Yunning district’s high schools through the mouths of these people. Thinking about it, a bitter feeling crept up his throat. It was simply unbelievable. In the future, when everyone mentioned his name, it would become, “Oh, that guy who was knocked unconscious by Chu Yunfan’s slash.”
And all of this was caused by Chu Yunfan!
“Is that the Chu Yunfan who sent you flying with one strike?”
It was like opening a can of worms. A student beside Fang Ziyan piped up as he glared daggers at Chu Yunfan. Then, that student noticed Fang Ziyan’s murderous gaze and smiled sheepishly. Forget it. They had just wanted to tease him a little, but it looked like they should give up the thought.
“It shouldn’t be a problem. So what if Chu Yunfan is powerful? Lu Xiuran will defeat him. After all, Lu Xiuran is at the eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage!”
That student’s words gave Fang Ziyan confidence.
“Yeah, Lu Xiuran is at the eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage!” With that said, Fang Ziyan calmed down. Lu Xiuran was one of the top ten in their school. In fact, he was in 8th place. How could Chu Yunfan possibly defeat him?
Although that was what he said, he still could not forget the way Chu Yunfan had sent him flying.
“Make your move. Don’t waste time,” Chu Yunfan said lightly as he stood within the
ring.
“You are still so arrogant, but now is different from the past,” Lu Xiuran said. Chu Yunfan’s tone made him unhappy. Chu Yunfan made him sound like a pesky problem he had to solve.
Slash!
Lu Xiuran took a step forward, and the sword ray that poured out was like mercury, headed straight for Chu Yunfan.
“What a fast sword technique!”
The eyes of many lit up. Compared to the previous battle, Lu Xiuran’s attack was clearly on a higher level.
The real battle between experts was about to begin.
In an instant, the sword had already arrived in front of Chu Yunfan.
Chu Yunfan unhurriedly drew his saber. The sword was about to reach his face when he finally made his move.
Clang!
The saber and sword clashed. Chu Yunfan’s move was so fast that everyone only caught a black shadow. Then, the saber and sword clashed.
“First come, first served. What a fast speed!”
Ran Jun, who was watching the battle from his seat, suddenly perked up.
On the stage, Lu Xiuran felt that his attack had been blocked. He knew that Chu Yunfan was not easy to deal with, so he was not surprised. He steadied himself and then rushed at Chu Yunfan once again.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
A series of densely packed ping-pong sounds rang out from the ring. They sounded like fried beans bursting from their skins. Many students had to steady themselves because the battle they were currently witnessing was far more intense than any of the previous ones.
Lu Xiuran’s swordsmanship seemed to be able to pierce the sky. However, no matter how fast his attack was, no matter how ruthless, Chu Yunfan easily blocked every attack. Chu Yunfan looked as if he was taking a leisurely stroll and he fended off all of Liu Xiuran’s attacks. The more Lu Xiuran attacked, the more impatient he became. But the more impatient he became, the more he could not break through Chu Yunfan’s defenses.
At first, Lu Xiuran thought that he had overestimated Chu Yunfan, but over the winter break, Lu Xiuran had taken another step forward and entered the eighth level of the Qi Sea Stage. He should be able to take down Chu Yunfan easily. However, as he attacked, he realized that something was wrong. He had become stronger, but Chu Yunfan had also become stronger. Chu Yunfan did not attack, not because he was suppressed, but because he was like a monster lurking in the darkness, ready to attack at any time.
At first, many people thought that Chu Yunfan was stunned by Lu Xiuran’s hail of attacks. They thought he did not know how to counterattack. But they soon realized that something was wrong. Although Chu Yunfan was defending, his defense was very organized. Lu Xiuran’s attack could not touch
him.
“What are you doing? Are you toying with me?!” Lu Xiuran roared angrily, “Why aren’t you attacking?”
Chu Yunfan sighed. He had wanted to preserve his strength until the final championship battle. He would then be able to make his move with all his strength. But he thought it over and realized there was no need for that. They had already come to this point. How much longer could he hide. “In that case, I’ll do as you wish!”
Chu Yunfan finally made a move. It was not like he had not made a move before, but he had just been defending.
And now that was finally striking out, Chu Yunfan looked terrifying.
When his saber came down, it was like it could split the mountains and earth. His strike was thick and heavy.
As Chu Yunfan’s saber came down, the sword shadows from Lu Xiuran’s moves instantly disappeared. This was because Chu Yunfan’s blade had come down. If Lu Xiuran did not want to die, he could only turn around and defend.
Lu Xiuran felt that he might not be able to block this strike.
Clang!
Lu Xiuran withdrew his sword just in time to block the strike. However, the terrifying power was still instantly unleashed.
Clang, clang, clang!
Lu Xiuran took a few steps back. His entire arm was trembling and was about to go numb. A look of shock flashed through his eyes. ‘Is this his true strength?’ Lu Xiuran thought to himself.
Chu Yunfan had been concealing his true strength all this while!
And he did not stop. He hacked down at lightning speed.
“Don’t underestimate me!” Lu Xiuran roared.
He gripped the hilt of his sword with his other hand as well. Then, he brandished his sword to meet the incoming strike.
