Such a beautiful woman, to have someone she loves, is unacceptable.
"Hey, isn't this the new junior brother?"
"Junior Brother is quite impressive! To be able to enter the True Martial Hall at the Venerable Realm is truly remarkable!"
Lu Chen glanced at the person in front of him, smiled, and said, "I am Lu Chen, greetings to all my senior brothers! Please make way, I have other matters to attend to, so I will not chat with you any longer!"
He was being polite.
But at this moment, these people were looking at him with strange smiles, and they just wouldn't let him have his way.
What's your rush?
One of them was an extremely tall and muscular man with a full beard and a very loud voice.
"We're your senior brothers, after all. You seem very impatient when your senior brothers ask you questions?"
These words clearly contained a provocative intent.
Lu Chen glanced at Lu Ziqi, who was surrounded by the crowd, and instantly understood.
Indeed, beauty can be a curse.
However, he was very curious about the strength of the disciples of the True Martial Hall, even though almost all of them were at the King Realm.
However, even within the King Realm, there are different levels, and their strengths are not the same.
According to the Zhenwu Academy's classification of its disciples' combat strength, they are divided into nine ranks.
Some people, after breaking through to the King Realm, only have the combat power of the first level of the King Realm.
However, some people are able to reach the seventh or eighth rank, and the highest can reach the ninth rank of combat power. These are all peerless geniuses.
Such geniuses are extremely rare, even within the True Martial Hall.
The bearded man in front of me, whose real name is Meng Xiong, has reached the fourth level of the King Realm and is quite famous.
Of everyone present, he was the strongest, and he fought with extreme ferocity, so few were willing to spar with him.
This person has an extremely explosive personality, is easily angered, and is quite prone to causing trouble.
Lu Chen didn't care.
"Who are you?"
Lu Chen glanced at him calmly, without any ripples in his expression, while secretly sending a telepathic message to Lu Ziqi.
"Hey, Lu Ziqi, just say what you want to do. Can't you find a better place? Don't cause trouble."
After entering the Zhenwu Academy, Lu Chen's feelings towards Lu Ziqi changed somewhat. Before, when he was at the Xuanwu Academy, no matter what, she was still his master.
However, the two of them have now arrived at the Zhenwu Academy together, a place unfamiliar to them. Furthermore, Lu Ziqi is no longer the Seventh Elder of the Xuanwu Academy, and it is currently unknown what her current identity is.
Lu Chen then stopped regarding her as his master.
"You unfilial disciple, how dare you address your master by his name! I'll teach you a lesson later!"
Lu Ziqi said this, but she wasn't really angry. She added, "I live in the Elder Hall, so you can't go even if I ask you to! Hehe, my good disciple, shouldn't you take this opportunity to show off your skills and not let people look down on our Xuanwu Academy?"
Lu Ziqi was simply enjoying the spectacle and was also very curious about the extent of her disciple's strength.
Even she, as his master, was a little confused.
Lu Chen rolled his eyes when he heard this.
Is this necessary?
Lu Chen completely ignored the presence of everyone else around him.
When Meng Xiong saw Lu Chen's attitude, he immediately got angry. He had been looking for an excuse to lash out, and this was the perfect opportunity.
"How dare you speak to your senior brother like that? You are just a Venerable One, yet you dare to be disrespectful to your senior brother. I must teach you a lesson and show you what proper etiquette is."
After saying this, Meng Xiong raised his large palm and grabbed directly at Lu Chen.
The others immediately backed away.
Bullying newcomers is a common practice among disciples of all sects.
The goal is to show these former geniuses what it means to be outmatched and to be truly exceptional. The sect's elders won't interfere too much with this.
As long as no one dies, they usually turn a blind eye.
Lu Chen naturally knew this as well.
Therefore, he was not afraid at all when faced with this person's provocation.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, wondering how Lu Chen would retaliate.
You must know that Meng Xiong is extremely powerful. Teaching a mere junior brother of a Venerable would be a piece of cake for him. Some people even joined in the commotion.
"Senior Brother Meng Xiong, please go easy on him and don't hurt this junior brother."
"That's right. It's too much for someone as powerful as the King Realm to bully the weak. They should be taught a lesson."
"Consider it as giving some pointers to the new junior brother on his cultivation; that's the rule."
Meng Xiong also showed a contemptuous smile, he certainly didn't take this junior brother seriously.
However, to everyone's surprise, Meng Xiong reached out but grabbed nothing.
Lu Chen, who was standing in front of him, suddenly vanished.
Everyone around stared blankly at what was behind Meng Xiong.
Meng Xiong immediately realized what was happening, and suddenly turned around to look behind him.
But Lu Chen had already reached Lu Ziqi's side, with his back to her.
The movement just now was so fast that no one had time to react before Lu Chen had unknowingly passed through the crowd.
This move completely stunned everyone.
"That's fast."
Meng Xiong was also secretly surprised, but as a fourth-level King Realm warrior, he could not possibly admit defeat so easily.
"It's just that I'm a little faster. Do you really think that's all my strength?"
Meng Xiong sneered and charged at Lu Chen once again, this time slapping Lu Chen directly on the back.
