C142 (2/2)

Di Chen did not know why Dongfang Yue was looking for him for, but he followed Dongfang Yue to the southeast corner of the Famous Sword Academy. This place was normally a forbidden area, and only the teachers of the Famous Sword Academy could come here.

Di Chen curiously walked in, and upon entering, he saw more than ten experts with Lifestealer Realm, Liu Jingjing and Lin Tao amongst them.

When Liu Jingjing saw Di Chen, she ran over excitedly and asked: ”Di Chen, why are you here?”

Di Chen said: ”It was Teacher Dongfang who brought me here. Jingjing, your strength seems to have increased quite a bit, have you broken through your Martial King Realm?”

Liu Jingjing giggled: ”Soon.”

Di Chen thought that the first time he met Liu Jingjing, she was like an ice beauty who didn't like to interact with others. However, now that Liu Jingjing had spoken, she had a trace of a young lady's aura, which showed that she had truly changed a lot.

”Oh right,” Di Chen looked curiously at Liu Lin Tao, and with one glance, he could tell that Lin Tao had already broken through to the Seventh Stage of Life Seizing, he exclaimed: ”Your cultivation speed is just too fast, don't just focus on raising your cultivation level and give up your strength.”

Lin Tao said with a smile, ”Rest assured, teacher Shunan still thinks that my cultivation is slow.”

As a matter of fact, although Lin Tao trained very quickly, his cultivation level wasn't all that low either. Currently, even the average ninth level Life Seizing Cultivator wasn't Lin Tao's opponent. However, Lin Tao didn't know why his talent suddenly became so good, as if he had become a different person.

Hearing Lin Tao's words, Di Chen was relieved, but he did not ask anything. He looked at Dongfang Yue and asked: ”Teacher Dongfang, are all of you direct disciples?”

Dongfang Yue nodded his head: ”Almost every teacher in the Famous Sword Academy will accept a few direct disciples. Their strength varies from Lifestealer Realm to Martial King and the number of people will also vary; these are all direct disciples of the Lifestealer Realm.”

Di Chen was curious: ”Why did teacher bring me here?”

Dongfang Yue laughed: The news of you defeating the Clear Water Academy some time ago has already spread, all these direct disciples did not watch the competition, and did not know your strength, so some people wanted to challenge you.

Di Chen finally understood what was going on. So they had wanted him to fight with them, probably because they wanted him to increase their strength through battle.

”But …” Di Chen did not seem to be willing to fight. On one hand, he did not want to become a tool for others to cultivate. On the other hand, he had already broken through to King Wen.

Dongfang Yue didn't wait for Di Chen to finish before saying: ”You might not know, but these direct disciples have always been a little arrogant. I heard that you were very strong and none of them were convinced, so I wanted to challenge you.

Di Chen looked at Dongfang Yue with suspicion. He kept having the feeling that he had other motives, but Di Chen didn't think too much into it, and nodded in the end.

Seeing that Di Chen agreed, he looked at the direct disciples and said: ”This is Di Chen, although you all have not seen his previous fights, but you should have heard of him before, if anyone wants to challenge him, feel free to try.”

”I only came because he defeated the two Clear Water Academy s. I don't believe that he is as powerful as the rumors in the academy say.”

”Let me do it. Recently, there has been a breakthrough in my cultivation. I want to see how much I have improved.”

Everyone were clamoring to fight Di Chen; even many people at the seventh or eighth stage of the life reaping matches with Di Chen. It was clear that they did not place Di Chen in their eyes.

These were all direct disciples, and Di Chen was just a new student who had just entered the academy. It was normal for them to look down on Di Chen.

Di Chen did not mind, and laughed: ”Why don't all of you come at once, if not it will be a little unfair to you.”

”What?” Everyone was furious when they heard this. Even the direct disciples were acting so arrogantly?

”I heard that you are a literati, I would love to test if you are really as powerful as what the rumors say,” a man suddenly took a step towards Di Chen and punched at him, but when the man arrived in front of Di Chen, he seemed to be restricted by a force, and was no longer able to move.

Di Chen immediately walked to his side, grabbed him and threw him out.

”What's going on?” Everyone was startled, they did not see Di Chen use his cultivation technique.

Di Chen laughed: ”I have already broken through to King Wen, and am already equivalent to a Martial King, that's why I asked you all to attack me together.”

Break through the King Wen?

Everyone immediately became like deflated balls, thinking that since they were just Lifestealer Realm, how could they fight against a King Wen?

Dongfang Yue was also slightly surprised. A few days ago, he was only a scholar, but now, he was at King Wen, his cultivation speed was rather fast, no wonder Zhao Fusheng was recommending him with all his might. He thought to himself, although this guy is not a direct disciple, he actually has the qualifications to become a direct disciple.
