Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 241 - 240: Truly Worthy of the Sword Dao’s New Pride
This year’s academy competition is essentially settled.
Dean Tianyi did not want Shen Han to participate and potentially get injured.
The reputation that needs to be lost is lost anyway.
To regain face, it will be next year or the year after.
"Dean, there’s a difference between being defeated and fleeing from a fight.
Even if I lose, please let me lose in the competition.
At least, it won’t make other students think that we lack the courage to even face a challenge."
Shen Han’s words seemed to persuade the Dean of Tianyi.
There is indeed a difference between being defeated and fleeing from a fight.
Lacking the courage to even step into the competition is truly contemptible.
Before the Dean of Tianyi could speak, Yu Jing, standing beside him, spoke first.
"Don’t underestimate your opponent. Even though you defeated Su Jinyu, you don’t stand a chance against absolute strength. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Yu Shaoqing is a genuine Sixth Grade Fruit Realm practitioner. You won’t be able to withstand even a single blow of his Punch Force.
Forget about Punch Force, even the Wind Blade from his punch could injure you."
Hearing Yu Jing’s words, Shen Han did not deny it, but he still wanted to try.
"It’s not a big deal. I’m tough-skinned, a minor injury won’t matter."
Seeing Shen Han’s lack of concern for his suggestion, Yu Jing pursed his lips, too lazy to say more.
Ignoring the advice of the elderly brings consequences immediately.
There was still half an hour until the duel with Yu Shaoqing, and the sky had already turned completely dark around the competition venue.
There was a faint layer of moonlight, but tonight’s moonlight wasn’t particularly bright.
Perhaps to accommodate the spectators around the competition venue, several torches had already been lit by the edge of the field.
Shen Han walked out of the tent, pondering over the situation.
He had enough confidence for this competition.
A moment later, seeing both the Dean and Shen Han walk out of the tent, Yu Jing began to speak more freely.
He glanced at the gate before exhaling heavily.
"In the past, I, Yu Jing, also disliked listening to people’s advice and guidance.
I always found it too noisy in my head.
Looking back now, if I had understood this earlier, I wouldn’t have learned so many hard lessons."
Yu Jing spoke with a hint of helplessness.
Several classmates standing nearby also chimed in.
"Brother Yu, don’t blame yourself. You’ve given Shen Han your warning, it’s his choice not to listen.
If he suffers, he’ll have to bear it himself.
As Mr. Chen once said, young people won’t learn if they don’t experience losses firsthand.
We’ve all been there..."
"Yes, we’ve all been through it..."
Though young in age, the personal students’ words carried a sense of longing.
It seemed as if they had already seen through the ways of the world in just a few short years.
Unlike Tianyi Academy’s atmosphere, the students from Hongtai Academy were all excited.
The other three academies also wore an expression of watching a show.
Standing beside Madam Shen, Shen Ye showed a touch of helplessness on his face.
"With Tianyi Academy’s posture, it seems Grandson won’t even have a chance to challenge Shen Han..."
Hearing this, Madam Shen gently patted his hand.
"No chance is no chance. His talent and potential are just like that. Ao’Er seeing Shen Han losing to others might even restore some of his temperament."
Upon hearing this, Shen Ye hesitated for a moment: "Let’s see. If he really defeats that student from Hongtai Academy, then I’ll ask the gentlemen from Mountain Sea Academy to arrange a challenge for me."
Somehow, ever since hearing Luo Zuchen’s talk of luck,
Shen Ye had become more worried about Shen Han.
Seizing this opportunity, it’s time to bring Shen Han back to the fate he once had.
Doing some chores in the Shen Mansion is the fate he deserves.
p.m. had arrived.
In the depths of summer nights, it could still feel a bit chilly.
In the middle of the competition field, Yu Shaoqing and Shen Han stood facing each other.
The onlookers carried a hint of ridicule on their faces.
"Truly a new Sword Dao’s Pride, daring to strike even when knowing he’s outmatched..."
Conversations among the passersby carried a tone of mockery.
This title of pride was given to Shen Han for his Sword Dao talent.
No matter how high one’s Sword Dao talent is, with a significant gap in strength, it’s even hard to defend against an opponent’s attack.
Among the outer crowd, Shi Yuezhu also showed a trace of concern.
While beside her, Su Jinyu didn’t have any confidence in Shen Han.
"It seems that Shen Han is not confident, but arrogant...
Yu Shaoqing is of the Sixth Grade Fruit Realm strength..."
Upon hearing her apprentice’s words, Shi Yuezhu turned her head to look at her: "Jinyu, if you were to face Yu Shaoqing, what chance of victory would you have?"
"At most... twenty percent...
I must completely see through his Punch Force to possibly defeat him with mysterious swordsmanship."
Su Jinyu’s talent was ultimately extremely exceptional.
Her judgment was precise, which Shi Yuezhu agreed with.
However, Shi Yuezhu knew that Shen Han was not at the Sixth Grade Half-Step Realm but the Sixth Grade Fruit Realm.
Under the same realm, his winning prospects should increase significantly.
In the middle of the competition field, with a cry,
Yu Shaoqing made the first move, his Punch Force bursting from his hands.
Just the wind blade from a single punch severed the waterfall beside him.
It seemed he didn’t want to entangle with Shen Han, not holding back from the first move.
"Dean, you should protect Shen Han, Yu Shaoqing’s Punch Force is much stronger than expected!"
Even from a distance, Yu Jing couldn’t resist giving a reminder.
He was kind-hearted, not wanting Shen Han to get injured.
But in just an instant, Shen Han’s figure had already evaded, clutching a long sword in his hand.
The sword edge was sharp, like breaking through the waves and slicing through clouds.
Yu Shaoqing engaged with Tiger Finger Punch Force.
It wasn’t until he truly came into contact with Shen Han’s sword technique that he realized it wasn’t so simple.
There seemed to be a touch of mysterious skill, making his fists ache even when he blocked it.
With just this one move, Yu Shaoqing learned his lesson, realizing it’s better to dodge than to take his attacks head-on.
Shen Han wasn’t about to give him time to think.
Flying Sword Sky-Filling Momentum!
A hundred Sword Shadows instantly stood among the mountain peaks, aiming directly at Yu Shaoqing with the momentum of the sword.
In just an instant.
Though Shen Han was of the Sixth Grade Half-Step Realm, he seemed to occupy the advantage at this moment.
The Sword Shadows pierced through, passing between the waterfalls, even creating ripples as they charged toward Yu Shaoqing.
With the surrounding firelight reflecting on the Sword Shadows, they appeared even more formidable.
Shen Han had used this Sword Shadow technique before during his fight with Su Jinyu.
From the current perspective, his use of Sword Shadows seemed more practiced.
Some spectators with insufficient strength could only watch the lights and brilliance from afar.
Unable to see any clear situation.
Within Tianyi Academy’s circle, a glimmer of hope ignited in many hearts.
Could it be, Shen Han is really going to defeat Yu Shaoqing?
The Dean of Tianyi’s old face was at this moment a mix of anticipation and worry, extremely conflicted.
