Chapter 68: Defeat Again
"It's true. But Brother Song, your strength is at least slightly stronger than that of Li Tai in the capital. You have done a great job in forcing me to use 60% of my strength."
Ling Chen still remained noncommittal.
"Li Tai? Are you talking about Li Tai, one of the 'Ten Great Men of the Capital'?"
Song Hailan looked at Ling Chen with some suspicion. He couldn't tell whether what Ling Chen said was true or not. But there was one thing he absolutely didn't believe when Ling Chen said he only used 60% of his strength.
"Tianhe, lend me your sword."
Song Hailan looked at Yun Tianhe. He was determined to regain his face.
"yes."
Yun Tianhe obediently took off his sword and handed it to Song Hailan.
Song Hailan narrowed her eyes, "Ling Chen, since you said you can defeat me with only 60% of your strength, then you will definitely be able to defeat me this time."
"You want to fight again?"
Ling Chen shook his head, "Hasn't the winner already been decided?"
"That game just now doesn't count."
Song Hailan raised her sword and pointed it at Ling Chen, "This time, I will use my strongest move to end the battle."
“No matter how many times, the result is always the same.”
Ling Chen felt somewhat helpless. He put away the Tianfu Heavy Sword and picked up a dry branch from the ground nearby to use as a weapon.
"What are you doing?"
Song Hailan's expression darkened slightly. He probably guessed what Ling Chen was going to do.
"You said there was something wrong with my weapon. In that case, I will use this branch as a weapon. If you lose again, you should have nothing to say." Ling Chen said lightly.
“Arrogant!”
Song Hailan's face turned blue with anger. "If I lose to a mere branch, I will commit suicide right here and there."
If he couldn't even defeat Ling Chen who used tree branches as weapons, then how could he still have the dignity to live in this world.
"Brother Song, impulse is the devil."
When Yun Tianhe, Yang Song and others heard Song Hailan say such harsh words, they hurried forward to persuade her.
However, this made Song Hailan even more angry. Did these guys think that they could still lose under such circumstances?
"roll!"
Song Hailan refused to listen to any advice and was determined to fight Ling Chen to the death. This time, he must avenge his previous humiliation and return it tenfold.
"Brother Song, you said this yourself."
Ling Chen had a half-smile on his face. He was afraid that there would be something interesting to watch later.
"Blue Blade Tyrannosaurus!"
After Song Hailan gathered his true energy, he attacked boldly, swinging his sword towards Ling Chen's forehead.
Ling Chen leaned back to avoid the long sword, and suddenly stabbed out with the branch in his hand, directly stabbing at Song Hailan's right hand holding the sword.
Song Hailan took a step back, dodging Ling Chen's dead branch, and immediately attacked again, slashing at the branch in Ling Chen's hand with the long sword in his hand.
Before the long sword fell, fragmented sword energy had already landed on Ling Chen's body, poking small black holes in Ling Chen's robe.
Ling Chen would certainly not allow this sword to hit the dead branch in his hand. If it were to collide head-on, the dead branch in his hand would definitely be cut off.
Ling Chen dodged continuously, avoiding the vital points and retreating ten steps away.
"Sure enough, the strength has improved a lot."
Ling Chen was secretly surprised that Song Hailan, with her full effort, could actually cause him quite a bit of trouble.
"Ling Chen, how about it, can you still speak so arrogantly now?"
A very bright smile appeared on Song Hailan's face. He thought that Ling Chen underestimated him by defeating him with just a branch.
"Don't speak too soon."
Ling Chen raised the branch in his hand and performed the third move of the Dragon Seeking Sword Technique, Seeking Dragon Without Shadow.
His body passed through quickly, as if leaving behind a dragon shadow, and then appeared in front of Song Hailan like a phantom, and the branch in his hand stabbed out as fast as lightning.
Seeing this, Song Hailan's pupils shrank. Although it was just a branch, it was mixed with sword energy. If he was stabbed, he would still be injured.
However, with his full concentration, no matter how fast Ling Chen was, he was not faster than his reaction. He avoided Ling Chen's attack at the critical moment and then slashed out with his sword.
"Defeat me!"
Song Hailan broke Ling Chen's sword move and cut off the dead branch in Ling Chen's hand with one sword.
But the next moment, he realized something was wrong. At that moment, it seemed as if something was pressing against the back of his head.
“It’s an afterimage.”
Song Hailan suddenly realized that Ling Chen 's moves were so fast. Didn't she know that at some point, the opponent had already gotten behind her?
"It was too fast. Song Hailan didn't even have time to react before she was defeated."
The disciples who were watching the game were in high spirits.
"Yeah, he only used a branch as a weapon. His strength is too terrifying." Although they didn't see the process clearly, the result was obvious. Even though Ling Chen only used a branch as a weapon, the latter still won.
Ling Chen smiled teasingly, "Senior Brother Song, according to your promise, shouldn't you now..."
boom!
Before Ling Chen could finish his words, Song Hailan fell down and seemed to have fainted.
"Why did he faint so quickly? This guy is too fragile."
Xiao Muyu was a little puzzled. Ling Chen didn't hurt Song Hailan just now, so why did this guy faint?
"If he hadn't fainted, he would have fulfilled his promise and committed suicide on the spot." Ling Yin said from the side.
"I see. This guy is quite smart."
Xiao Muyu also found it a little funny. If this guy didn't pretend to be fainted, it would be hard to fool him.
It's impossible for him to really commit suicide by sword in public.
Ling Chen certainly knew what was going on, but he was too lazy to expose this guy. Now he was afraid that no matter who it was, he would not be able to wake this guy up.
"Senior Brother Song, Senior Brother Song!"
However, Yun Tianhe and Yang Song were still shaking Song Hailan's body desperately, trying to wake him up. This made Song Hailan want to jump up and beat up the two of them. If he was exposed by these two, he would be dead.
"Hurry up and take your Senior Brother Song away. He won't wake up for a while."
At this time, Xiao Muyu came over and said with a smile.
"Damn it, Ling Chen, what did you do to Senior Brother Song?" Yun Tianhe glared at Ling Chen.
Ling Chen sneered, "What can I do to him? You can ask him after he wakes up."
"Just wait, this matter won't end like this."
Yun Tianhe took a deep breath and looked at Ling Chen with an extremely angry look. He could never have imagined that Song Hailan was so vulnerable in front of Ling Chen. This guy, who was stepped on by him before, has become so powerful now?
It now seems that Song Hailan, at this level, is no longer a threat to Ling Chen.
If they want to deal with Ling Chen, they may have to ask their second senior sister to take action.
Their second senior sister, Yu Qingxuan, is a young master who holds a place on the Heavenly Ranking.
Ling Chen, a guy with no background, wanted to fight them, but the final result would only be death.
After taking a deep look at Ling Chen, Yun Tianhe and Yang Song and the others carried Song Hailan and left the training ground dejectedly amidst the many discussions.
