Meng Xiong used 70% of his power in this palm strike, making it extremely terrifying. With one strike, he blocked all of Lu Chen's escape routes.
No matter which direction Lu Chen fled in, he could not escape the range of this palm strike.
However, Lu Chen did not make any dodging movements at all.
This was completely unexpected by Meng Xiong.
Everyone present held their breath, not daring to look closely.
After all, the power of this palm strike was equivalent to that of a third-tier combatant.
Lu Chen was only at the Venerable Realm, and in everyone's eyes, he would probably be seriously injured even if he didn't die.
Some people even felt a little panicked.
If these senior brothers from the True Martial Hall were to kill their newly arrived junior brother in one fell swoop, that would be a terrible thing. If the elders of the sect found out, Meng Xiong would probably have to apologize for it.
The rest will also be punished.
But at that moment, Lu Chen suddenly turned around and pointed a finger. This finger was so casual and seemingly powerless, yet it struck Meng Xiong's palm squarely.
In an instant, a terrifying power erupted.
Meng Xiong felt a sharp pain in his palm, which then spread to his entire arm.
In an instant, his right hand dropped down, and his entire body retreated rapidly. He was forced back more than three zhang by this finger strike, vomiting blood and collapsing to the ground.
Everyone who saw this was stunned.
It's just a tiny finger.
Meng Xiong was unable to withstand the enormous force, and his entire right arm was completely ruined.
Everyone stared at Lu Chen as if he were a monster.
That's terrifying.
The scene fell silent. Everyone glanced at Lu Chen, then at Meng Xiong lying on the ground, and remained speechless for a long time.
Finally, someone went forward to check on Meng Xiong's injuries. Meng Xiong was strong and healthy, and his physical cultivation was extremely high. Although his right arm was ruined, this injury was nothing to him.
It just means that I won't be able to fight anyone for at least half a month.
Meng Xiong's face was ashen. He was utterly humiliated that he, a fourth-level King Realm expert, couldn't even defeat a junior brother who had just started his training.
At this point, he was too ashamed to stay any longer. He slowly got up, turned around and left without saying a word.
The others at the scene looked at Lu Chen, and the contempt in their eyes was gone.
This junior apprentice, who had just started his training, displayed incredibly terrifying talent and strength from the very beginning.
With just a light flick of his finger, he possessed such immense power. If he were to unleash his full strength, just how powerful would he be? Keep in mind, this junior brother is merely a Venerable.
To be able to defeat a powerhouse like Meng Xiong in a battle that transcends a major realm truly shows his limitless potential.
Of course, you should cultivate a good relationship with someone like that.
"I never imagined that Junior Brother Lu Chen's strength was so high."
"I am ashamed of myself as a senior brother! No, I'm afraid I should start calling him Senior Brother Lu Chen from now on."
"Senior Brother Lu Chen, we were blind to your greatness. Please take good care of us in the future."
"Senior Brother Lu Chen is busy, so let's not disturb him any longer and go."
These people were quite perceptive. Seeing the impatient expression on Lu Chen's face, they knew that he had no intention of befriending them, so they left one by one, feeling dejected.
Lu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Lu Ziqi, and said helplessly, "Are you satisfied now?"
Lu Ziqi patted his shoulder, nodded, and said, "Very satisfied. I didn't expect you to be so strong, kid! How much force did you use just now?"
Lu Ziqi could see that even though Lu Chen had just repelled Meng Xiong with a single finger, he had not used his full strength.
This kid is still hiding his strength, but we don't know exactly how much he's hiding.
"What? You've taken a fancy to me? You'll be my wife and I'll tell you, how about it?"
Since Lu Chen had already given up and no longer needed to treat Lu Ziqi as his master, he started to tease her directly.
Upon hearing this, Lu Ziqi immediately frowned.
"What nonsense are you spouting? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll tear your mouth apart! That's utterly rebellious!"
Lu Ziqi said this, but she wasn't actually that angry.
She still believed the story Lu Chen had fabricated.
Lu Chen entered the Xuanwu Academy to find himself.
However, due to a series of unexpected events, the two became master and disciple. But now that they have come to the Zhenwu Academy, it seems that they are deliberately ignoring this relationship.
Lu Chen didn't care what she thought; as long as he got the reward, that was enough.
System notification: Your confession to Lu Ziqi failed, or you will be rewarded with 10 [Source Crystals].
All the rewards I've received recently are Source Crystals.
Lu Chen initially planned to activate all the source crystals and convert them into his own strength, since the rewards from the system could directly enhance the effects without requiring any process.
However, he suddenly realized that it was completely unnecessary. He currently had nearly two hundred source crystals. If he used all of them, breaking through to the King Realm would be no problem at all. However, whether he could go further was unknown.
If I were to improve my strength, I might be able to confess my feelings to Lu Ziqi again, but I wouldn't receive such a generous reward—ten Source Crystals! I only get three a month at the True Martial Academy, so there's no need for that at all.
"It's better to accumulate more knowledge and skills, and then improve them all at once."
Lu Chen made up his mind.
Keep playing.
"Don't be so quick to refuse. Don't you want to experience a love that will leave a lasting impression? Life is full of regrets, but love is eternal! Don't miss out."
