The sharp palm wind, carrying all the Spiritual Power of Li Feiyun’s Great Power Realm Fifth Level, crashed toward Chen Chuan like a physical mountain.

The spectating Disciples cried out in alarm and retreated again, fearing they would be caught in the aftershocks of this wrathful strike.

Li Feiyun delivered this palm strike out of pure hatred, holding nothing back; his goal was clear—to kill Chen Chuan on the spot.

However, a purple figure was even faster than his palm wind.

The moment Li Feiyun moved, Su Mengxi took a light, lotus-like step and stood firmly in front of Chen Chuan.

Her pretty face was frosty, and her beautiful eyes were filled with a mix of anger and determination.

Clang!

With a clear ring of a sword, a longsword as clear as autumn water unsheathed. A faint blue halo flowed along the blade, emitting a piercing chill.

”Li Feiyun, how dare you!”

Amidst her cold rebuke, Su Mengxi flicked her wrist, and the longsword traced a mysterious arc, its tip accurately pointing at the strongest part of Li Feiyun’s palm wind.

There was no earth-shattering collision, only a dense and majestic force that surged out like a tide.

Thump!

With a muffled sound, the aggressive Li Feiyun felt a massive force, far beyond his imagination, transfer from the sword tip.

His arm shook violently, his blood and Qi churned, and his forward momentum was stopped dead. He staggered back several steps before barely managing to stand firm.

His face was filled with disbelief and an even more intense fire of jealousy as he stared fixedly at Su Mengxi, who stood with her sword held high, her robes fluttering.

Su Mengxi’s hand holding the sword was as steady as a rock, the tip pointing at Li Feiyun from afar, her tone bone-chillingly cold:

”Li Feiyun, I will say this one last time. If you dare to lay a hand on Chen Chuan again, do not blame my sword for being merciless.”

Her words were decisive, carrying an unquestionable protective intent.

Had she not been wary of Li Feiyun’s status as the grandson of the Elder of the Pill Hall, that sword strike just now would have done much more than simply push him back.

The Great Power Realm, Ninth Level against the Fifth Level was an absolute crushing defeat.

”You would draw your sword against me for this lowborn mud-leg?”

Li Feiyun’s voice was hoarse, his eyes bloodshot, and his reason was almost entirely consumed by jealousy.

He had pursued Su Mengxi for so long and had rarely even received a kind look.

Now, for another man, she did not hesitate to meet him, her pursuer, with weapons.

”Good! Well done, Su Mengxi! Well done, Chen Chuan!”

Li Feiyun’s face twisted.

He knew he was no match for Su Mengxi, and his full-blown Killing Intent had nowhere to go.

His gaze suddenly snapped to Chen Chuan, who was still standing there with a calm expression, and he roared harshly:

”Chen Chuan! You’re just a shrinking turtle who only knows how to hide behind a woman. What kind of thing are you?”

”If you’re a man, stand out and fight me fair and square.”

As soon as these words were spoken, a wave of boos immediately erupted from the surroundings.

”Ptui! How shameless! A Great Power Realm Fifth Level challenging a Half-Step Great Power?”

”Exactly, is Li Feiyun driven mad by anger? How can he say such things?”

”Who doesn’t know that Chen Chuan facing him is a certain death? He’s clearly trying to force Chen Chuan to his death!”

”He can’t beat Senior Sister Su, so he picks on a soft persimmon. Is this the character of the Elder of the Pill Hall’s grandson?”

Su Mengxi was also laughed out of anger by Li Feiyun’s shameless remarks.

She withdrew her longsword and said sarcastically:

”Li Feiyun, can you be any more shameless?”

”As a Great Power Realm Fifth Level, you’re challenging a Half-Step Great Power Realm Junior Brother. Have you truly lost all sense of shame?”

Li Feiyun’s disguise was completely torn away, and he could no longer maintain his hypocritical grace. He lashed out recklessly, ”Bitch! Shut your mouth!”

”What did you call me?” Su Mengxi’s eyes widened, her chest rising and falling slightly with anger.

She took a deep breath, her tone carrying a cold clarity and relief as if she had seen through him completely:

”Li Feiyun, I’ve finally seen your true colors today.”

”Hypocritical, despicable, and impotent rage.”

”I, Su Mengxi, am fortunate that I never looked upon you with even a shred of favor back then. Otherwise, I would surely have regretted it for the rest of my life.”

Since they had already fallen out, Li Feiyun threw caution to the wind.

Ignoring Su Mengxi, his gaze locked onto Chen Chuan like a venomous snake, and he continued to provoke him with words:

”Chen Chuan, is this all the ability you have? Only letting a woman block disasters for you?”

”Useless! Coward! If you have the guts, come out and let’s see the truth of our skills. Let’s have a duel between men.”

Su Mengxi immediately turned and whispered to Chen Chuan:

”Chen Chuan, don’t fall for it! He’s just trying to provoke you to find an excuse to kill you.”

”With me here, he won’t dare do anything to you.”

Chen Chuan naturally understood Li Feiyun’s intentions.

He looked at the rabid Li Feiyun and then glanced at Su Mengxi, who was protecting him with all her might, his thoughts spinning rapidly.

Under the gaze of Su Mengxi and the crowd, Chen Chuan slowly took a step forward and gently pushed aside Su Mengxi’s hand, which was trying to stop him again.

He looked at Li Feiyun with a calm gaze, his voice clearly reaching everyone present:

”Li Feiyun, since you are so intent on a fight, then I, Chen Chuan, will have a life and death battle with you.”

As soon as the words ’life and death battle’ were spoken, it was like a sudden clap of thunder, instantly setting the scene ablaze.

”What? A life and death battle? What did I just hear?”

”Is Chen Chuan insane? A Half-Step Great Power against a Great Power Fifth Level, and he dares to propose a life and death battle?”

”Where does he get such confidence? Could he be hiding his Cultivation level?”

”That’s impossible, right? The entrance test can’t be faked. He was indeed at the First Level of Half-Step Great Power before.”

”It’s over, it’s over. Chen Chuan has been driven silly by anger. This is like striking a rock with an egg!”

Su Mengxi was pale with fright. She grabbed Chen Chuan’s arm and said urgently:

”Chen Chuan! What nonsense are you talking about? Take those words back quickly.”

”A life and death battle is no joke; he will definitely go for the kill.”

”Don’t be impulsive. With me here, he can’t do anything to you.”

Chen Chuan, however, broke free from her hand, his gaze carrying a deliberately crafted stubbornness and impulsiveness.

He looked at Li Feiyun: ”This is a battle between men. I, Chen Chuan, do not need a woman’s protection.”

His eyes were provocative: ”Li Feiyun, I’m asking you. Do you dare, or do you not dare?”

Faced with Chen Chuan’s sudden toughness and the proposal for a life and death battle, the previously clamoring Li Feiyun was instead stunned.
