Watch out! Something's wrong with this guard.

Chapter 147 A narrow victory

Samo's emotions were clearly visible in the corners of his mouth, which he could hardly suppress.

It was excitement, exhilaration, and nervousness.

Clearly, his battle with Lu Yunshi made him feel a huge threat, and he had the idea of ​​destroying his opponent.

Of course, before that, one must first withstand the opponent's attacks.

He took a deep breath, then took a step forward, hiding his fist at his waist. As the lightning struck, runes around him flickered, resembling a mountain. But the next second, the mountain seemed to disintegrate, transforming into a massive, roaring beast.

"break!"

Samo moved swiftly, his fist as fast as lightning. With a single punch, his aura surged like a tsunami, suddenly pressing outwards. The force of this surge was terrifying, and it immediately became entangled with the spreading lightning.

Soon, the small beads on the ground flew out one after another under the terrifying attack of the Satsuma Iron Fist. The lightning lost its guidance, and he himself was also hit by the lightning and thrown dozens of meters away. Fortunately, it was only for a moment, and he managed to hold on to it.

But when Samo got up from the ground, he saw that Lu Yunshi was still standing in the same spot, his hair standing on end and his whole body charred black, looking as if he had been electrocuted.

Although he tried to look cool by crossing his arms, it couldn't hide his dilapidated state.

This scene surprised not only Samo, but everyone else as well.

"Huh? Why didn't he... use a talisman to block the lightning damage like before?"

"Is that all?"

"This is so satisfying! Hahaha!"

"Bullshit! Didn't you guys notice that even though Samoyed was sent flying by the electric shock, he's still standing in the same spot?"

At this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lu Yunshi suddenly spoke.

"Ten seconds!"

"What do you mean?" Samo asked, puzzled.

"Ten seconds," Lu Yunshi replied calmly.

"Ten seconds?" Samo seemed to understand. "Are you saying that you can defeat me in ten seconds? That's wishful thinking."

Lu Yunshi remained noncommittal, letting out a breath of stale air. "Watch closely, this is my last trump card."

Almost the instant the word 'card' was uttered, Lu Yunshi had already arrived in front of Samo. Samo couldn't react at all with such speed.

The next second, Lu Yunshi struck Samo in the chest with his elbow. Samo was in pain and tried to back away, but Lu Yunshi's hand had already risen up and delivered a heavy blow while holding Samo's chin.

Samo leaned back, forcibly trying to control one foot to step back and brace itself from falling, but Lu Yunshi anticipated this and flashed to Samo's side, sweeping his foot low and causing Samo to lose its balance.

Samo was startled and braced himself on the ground again, preparing to retaliate. Lu Yunshi stomped down again, stomping hard on Samo's chest, causing him to cough up a mouthful of blood.

It wasn't just the power of his fists and feet; when Lu Yunshi attacked, intense lightning power also entered Samo's body, which was the main reason why he was unable to resist the opponent's next attack.

"roll!"

Samo finally seized the opportunity, grabbed Lu Yunshi's foot and flung him away. However, Lu Yunshi landed on the ground and reappeared in front of him in less than a second. Fortunately, this was enough time for Samo to do something. He raised his hands to defend against Lu Yunshi's next attack.

He then retreated forcefully, channeling his spiritual energy into his fists, preparing to slam them into the ground. Unable to pinpoint Lu Yunshi's location, he could only try to slow Lu Yunshi's actions with a violent fluctuation, allowing him to locate him.

Unfortunately, Samo's idea was good, but he still underestimated Lu Yunshi's speed at that moment.

In the short time it took Samo to raise his fist, Lu Yunshi reappeared. This time, his speed was more than twice as fast as before, and his hand was no longer just a fist, but a sword flashing with lightning.

At that moment, the feeling of death enveloped Samo's entire body. He realized that the killing intent emanating from the enemy in front of him was so intense. Time seemed to stand still at that moment. Samo was unable to move, but the corner of his eye told him that the sword was getting closer and closer to him. The crackling arcs of electricity hung in mid-air, as if mocking his powerlessness.

In the end, the light stopped beside his neck, causing Samo only a burning pain, and he couldn't continue swinging. It wasn't that Lu Yunshi wasn't strong enough, but that his teacher blocked it.

At this moment, Lu Yunshi looked up and smiled slightly at Samo. "Exactly ten seconds."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yunshi lost all his strength and collapsed to the ground, looking completely paralyzed. Samo couldn't laugh at all when he saw his opponent's ridiculous appearance; in fact, his heart was still pounding wildly.

"You... really want to kill me?" Samo couldn't help but ask when he looked at Lu Yun, who was only out of paralysis but hadn't fallen into a coma yet.

With that final sword strike, Lu Yunshi clearly intended to exchange severe injury for his own death.

Lu Yunshi looked at the other person with all his might, but ultimately did not answer and peacefully closed his eyes.

But his answer was "yes".

If he hadn't been thinking this way, his final attack wouldn't have been so fierce. However, Lu Yunshi also knew that with his teacher around, he couldn't kill his opponent.

"Ha!" Seeing the other person lying in a muddy mess, Samo couldn't help but laugh out loud, grabbing the other person's collar and pulling him up.

Li Hongying, who was watching the game, immediately got up and was about to rush forward.

The referee frowned immediately upon seeing this, looking at Samoyed with suspicion. "Young man, you..."

Not only Li Hongying and the referee, but everyone else also felt that Samo was trying to do something. But the next second, Samo threw Lu Yunshi out, heading straight for Li Hongying.

Seeing Li Hongying catch Lu Yunshi with a tense expression, Samo smiled slightly. "Take good care of your man. He is a true warrior. I lost this time, but next time... I'll come back to fight him again."

Hearing Samo's words, Li Hongying immediately perked up, even blushing slightly. "Oh, don't worry, I'll take good care of my man. Um... remember to come to our wedding banquet, and you can bring any gifts you like."

Samo looked helpless upon hearing this and left without hesitation.

It's a fact that I'm much stronger than Lu Yunshi, so why did I lose in the end?

Was it because of Lu Yunshi's scheming? Was it because Lu Yunshi was an extreme realm cultivator?

Yes or no.

The fundamental reason is that despite having experienced many battles and killed monsters and humans, he is still just a student, while Lu Yunshi... is a warrior, and his fighting style and mindset are those of a warrior.

To put it simply, Lu Yunshi's level of skill in certain areas far surpassed his own, causing him to unleash two... or even three times the power.

On the other side, after the referee announced Lu Yunshi's victory, Li Hongying prepared to take Lu Yunshi back. However, after taking only two steps, she saw Lu Yunxi, who was standing in a corner and only appeared after Li Hongying approached.

"Tsk, someone can only watch from the corner." Upon seeing the enemy, Li Hongying did not hesitate to mock him.

“He’s mine, give him to me.” Lu Yunxi walked up to Li Hongying and said coldly.

“What do you mean ‘yours’? Didn’t you hear that uncle say he’s my man?” Li Hongying retorted without backing down.

"I told you, he...is mine..." Facing this unreasonable woman, Lu Yunxi took a deep breath, wishing she could drag her onto the stage right now for another round.

"Bullshit." Li Hongying snorted, too lazy to argue with the other party, and prepared to leave immediately.

Lu Yunxi suppressed her violent thoughts again and calmed down to say to him, "With your family's resources, how can you cure him before the next assessment? I have a better medicine."

"...So what if you're rich? You think you're so great?"

"so what?"

"So hurry up and leave. If he gets hurt anywhere, I won't let you off the hook."
