Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 339 - 338: Shen Han Only Needed One Move

As the wind moves, so does the person.

Pei Sulan flicked her fingertips gently, and the sound of the zither transformed into silk threads.

A subtle thought, and the transformed threads meander, their paths inscrutable, elusive.

The strength of a Fifth Grade First Snow Realm, truly, was naturally far ahead in her eyes.

Those who previously participated in the grand competition of Great Wei were at most at the Sixth Grade Fruit Realm at such an age.

The Shen Han before her was merely someone filling in a spot.

Surely, a substitute wouldn’t be stronger than the one who was originally supposed to compete, right?

With a wave of her sleeve, pure light shone, breaking through the pitch-black night with the sound of the zither.

Nowadays, the young generation of Yan Country is no weaker than the young cultivators of Qi and Wei.

Pei Sulan, as an outstanding young talent of Yan Country, naturally had this confidence.

The sound of the zither transformed into threads, intricate and complex.

With a thousand strands entwining, Pei Sulan wanted to win in one move, as she had before.

At this moment, she was less cautious.

Pei Sulan’s techniques appeared to attack with Illusion Silk.

In reality, however, the zither sound held the power to unsettle the mind.

Many who fought against her would find their mind unsettled for this very reason.

Not far away, Shen Han stood opposite her.

The thousand threads, leaving no shadow, attacked like an illusion.

The onlookers around had already raised a sense of expectation in their hearts.

In their hearts, they sighed at Yan Country’s luck, gaining a cartload of resources.

At the same time, they felt pity for Wei Country.

So many precious resources are wasted like this as if thrown away.

With the thousand threads approaching, a long sword appeared in Shen Han’s hand.

He seemed to have no intention of dodging.

The sword swung, and the thousand threads transformed from the sound of the zither seemed to want to entwine like vines.

Trying to seize the sharp blade from Shen Han’s hand.

But as soon as these threads touched the sword’s edge, they shattered like shadows.

Next moment.

The sword’s edge appeared right in front of Pei Sulan’s neck.

In the eyes of others, this was a match with no suspense.

Yet it yielded a completely different result.

Totally beyond everyone’s expectations...

The surroundings of the competition field were utterly silent.

Even those gentle breezes swaying leaves tried not to make a sound.

The inevitable victory for Yan Country, lost...

They had previously insisted against a best-of-three, and now it seemed, it was Yan Country who suffered.

"Please, take this cartload of resources away, it’s a lot of work."

Amid the silence, Shen Han spoke first.

His words were inviting Prince Qingyuan’s personal guard to pull back the cartload of resources won.

Upon hearing this, only then did the guard come back to his senses slightly.

Even he hadn’t expected such a result.

He walked forward in a daze, took hold of the horse’s reins, and returned to Great Wei’s camp.

What was thought to be a waste turned out to actually be a victory.

The people of Great Wei looked at each other, speechless.

The taunting words said earlier were like slaps,

Hitting themselves in the face.

And this unexpected good news was quickly transmitted to Great Wei.

In the Capital City, where those who wanted to suggest severe punishment for Prince Qingyuan, and claimed Shen Han was ominous and should perish.

Now their voices had quieted significantly.

In Ming City, within the competition field. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Shen Han held a long sword, the tip resting on the ground.

He looked up at the people of Qi and Yan before him.

"Is there anyone else willing to accept the invitation to battle?"

As soon as he finished speaking from the Qi side, someone leaped onto the field.

This person was Peng Nannan from Qi Country, who had previously defeated Si Xiaofeng in just one move.

Even though Shen Han defeated Pei Sulan, in the eyes of these geniuses, Shen Han’s win might involve some luck.

Moreover, there was Pei Sulan’s underestimation.

Just stepping into the field, Peng Nannan from Qi Country already had a long saber tightly in hand, and a saber aura emerged as he waved.

Shen Han used a Body Technique move to dodge the saber aura.

Then signaled him to stop.

"What? Giving up after just one move?

There’s no such thing as losing only half if you concede."

Peng Nannan wore a carefree smile, as if all these saber technique geniuses from Qi Country had this personality.

Shen Han waved his hand: "Before the competition, please bring the cart with your resources.

See how the people from Yan Country did."

At these words, many from Qi Country snorted coldly.

Shen Han’s words clearly implied doubt about Qi Country’s intention to renege.

Peng Nannan exchanged a glance with an elderly person behind, then nodded.

A cart full of resource materials was brought to the competition field.

"Now, we can fight, right?"

"Of course, please make your move."

Peng Nannan shook his head, muttering that it was unnecessary.

In his view, asking for the Qi Country cart was redundant.

A flash of sharp intent in his eyes, he lunged with his saber instantly.

Peng Nannan had great confidence in his saber technique, plus he now possessed a Profound Technique that could significantly enhance the power of his moves.

This Profound Technique is the Power of Laws; only these people of Qi Country were unaware that what they learned was the Power of Laws.

The long saber approached, but just as it was about to reach.

Tried to change the saber’s path as if for a surprise attack.

But as Peng Nannan approached, he started to realize his slowing hesitation.

By the time he reacted, Shen Han’s sword edge was already as before, right in front of his forehead.

Second match, another win...

As before when they defeated Great Wei in the competition, Shen Han needed just one move against them.

"Please, take away this cartload of resources as well, thank you for the trouble."

Shen Han spoke politely, and this time the guard no longer stood dazed.

In the eyes of all, he once again led away a cart.

The people they spoke ill of and looked down upon before.

Weren’t so simple...

Now, they seemed to understand somewhat.

Understand why Shen Han was dared to compete, his strength far exceeded the two people whom Great Wei sent to the competition!

The defeated Peng Nannan seemed quite unconvinced, wanting to duel Shen Han once more.

To which Shen Han did not refuse, lightly suggesting he bring a cart full of resources and it wouldn’t matter how many matches.

This young genius from Qi Country, upon hearing this, wanted to call another cart.

But the elder from Qi Country sternly called him back.

With so many strong practitioners present, Shen Han had already shown the Five Grade First Snow Realm’s strength in his previous actions.

They were unwilling to just give away resources for nothing.

And these messages also traveled back as quickly as possible to Great Wei, to the Capital City.

The previously gathered noisy citizens were now all silent.

The messengers vividly described the scene at the time.

Defeating the two geniuses from Qi and Yan, Shen Han used only one move.

In other words, if it wasn’t for being labeled as "unlucky," if Shen Han participated normally.

Great Wei would have easily won in this group tier.

And not, like Si Xiaofeng and Lan Qingxue, be defeated in one move.
