Lu Chen sensed something was wrong.
Could I have killed this guy with a single punch?
That would be terrible.
"Probably not, I didn't hit anyone!"
Lu Chen suddenly remembered that he had punched Wei Ping's hammer earlier, and that's why the guy was sent flying because he didn't want to let go.
It seems there shouldn't be any major problems.
However, when Wei Ping struggled to his feet and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, everyone present turned pale.
Wei Ping looked on incredulously.
"This punch hasn't even hit me yet, but its power is already so terrifying. If it had hit me, I'd probably be dead by now."
Wei Ping stopped in his tracks, not daring to go any further.
Lu Chen's gaze shifted to Mu Shaojie, who was standing on the other side.
Mu Shaojie's face turned deathly pale.
He was really scared.
One punch could send Wei Ping flying, hammer and all. Even if I was a level higher than Wei Ping, it wouldn't matter.
"Want to fight again? No? Then get lost."
Lu Chen suddenly lost interest.
Mu Shaojie and his men felt as if they had been granted a pardon. Without saying a word, they turned and fled at an astonishing speed.
They arrived in a majestic and arrogant manner.
They left like stray dogs.
The other onlookers didn't dare to step forward either. Even those who had been chatting happily with Lu Chen earlier were now filled with fear.
Lu Chen is so unpredictable!
Who knows if they'll just use them as practice targets? That would be a one-sided humiliation.
News of this battle quickly spread throughout the entire Seven Star Hall.
Even many inner disciples of the Seven Star Hall already know about this.
"What? That newcomer, Lu Chen, has only just reached the ninth level of the Qi Condensation Realm, yet he defeated Wei Ping, who is at the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm?"
"That Wei Ping is too useless, isn't he? He lost despite being so much stronger than Wei Ping."
"Outer disciples are all useless! If we inner disciples were to make a move, how could a mere newcomer at the ninth level of the Qi Condensation Realm be so arrogant?"
"This Lu Chen is quite a talent."
Most people were dismissive, but a few inner disciples were more cautious and felt that there was something fishy about the matter.
Only a handful of people can truly see through the reasons for victory or defeat in battle.
After listening to the descriptions from those watching the battle, the true experts quickly made a judgment: although Lu Chen's cultivation level was very low, only at the ninth level of the Qi Condensation Realm, his body refinement level must be extremely high.
Therefore, just one punch was enough to send Wei Ping flying.
Ling Yaozu naturally heard the news as well. That day, he locked himself in his room and refused to come out, trembling with fear.
Chan'er, who had been confined to the Heavenly Sword Hall for closed-door cultivation and forbidden from going out, also managed to find out about her young master through someone. After hearing this, she laughed for several days.
She had been indignant ever since she learned that her young master had been exiled to the outer gate of the Seven Star Hall.
She, a mere servant, entered the most powerful Heavenly Sword Hall of the Myriad Swords Sect and became a core disciple.
Lu Chen actually went to the Seven Star Hall, and he was an outer disciple no less. Where can we find justice in this?
Previously, Senior Xin Yun valued Lu Chen the most.
What exactly happened was unknown to Chan'er.
...
Ling Yan'er also kept a close eye on the Jade Sword Hall, since her cousin Ling Yaozu was also in the Seven Star Hall.
Of course, she also asked around to find out about Lu Chen's recent situation.
On the surface, Ling Yan'er didn't care at all about how Lu Chen was doing now, after all, the two were no longer bound by their marriage and had nothing to do with each other anymore.
But for some reason, Ling Yan'er still felt a little unhappy.
I was very dissatisfied.
From the very beginning of the Qingyang Grand Ceremony to the present, the phrase "Innate Sword Body" has always lingered in her mind.
She couldn't forget her master, Xin Yun, who had almost deliberately tried to please Lu Chen.
Upon learning of this, Ling Yan'er was filled with shock and disbelief.
"The innate sword body is indeed powerful, but I will not admit defeat."
Ling Yan'er cultivated even more diligently, practically risking her life.
"As long as I remain far ahead in terms of skill level, you will never be able to surpass me."
...
Since returning to the Myriad Swords Sect, Xin Yun, the deputy head of the Jade Sword Hall, has been quietly observing the growth of the four newly initiated disciples.
"My disciple used to cultivate quite diligently, but why has he been acting like a madman these past few days? What has triggered this?"
Xin Yun found it very strange.
She suddenly realized a possibility: her disciple and Lu Chen had been engaged, but for some reason, they had broken off the engagement.
Then they arrived at the Ten Thousand Swords Sect together.
"Could it be because of Lu Chen?"
Xin Yun immediately understood. She had heard about what had happened to Lu Chen before, but she wasn't as shocked as these ordinary disciples.
After all, given her level of understanding, it would be easy for her to guess.
Lu Chen's strength is so great because of two reasons: his innate sword physique and his powerful body refinement realm.
The innate sword body's talent for physical cultivation is beyond what ordinary people can compare to.
"Strange! Why was this child placed in the outer gate of the Seven Star Hall? Even if his cultivation level is low, there are some geniuses in the Heavenly Sword Hall whose cultivation level is even lower than his."
Xin Yun was completely baffled.
Unbeknownst to them, this was all arranged by the patriarch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
The news spread like wildfire, and soon almost the entire Ten Thousand Swords Sect knew about it.
