From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

"I?"

Chen Shi was taken aback and couldn't help but turn to the steward and say something.

"I haven't even had my strength tested yet, so why should I be put to a sparring test?"

"It doesn't matter which one we test first. Besides, this isn't about testing you, it's about testing Lu'er. You're just his sparring partner."

The manager spoke with a serious expression and some impatience.

"Since I've pointed at you, hurry up and come out. What's with all this nonsense!"

"……yes."

Chen Shi opened his mouth but didn't say anything more, and walked out from the crowd.

"That guy is really unlucky."

"Who can argue with that? Out of so many people, they specifically pointed at him."

"Lu'er will definitely have to perform well in order to successfully complete the grading process. That kid is probably going to get a severe beating."

The crowd watched Chen Shi and discussed him amongst themselves, their tone tinged with mockery, each one looking on with anticipation for a good show.

"Chen Shi!"

When Chen Shi arrived, Lu'er glared at him fiercely.

During the two months he spent at the manor, he had never suffered so much in his life. He hated Chen Shi even more and vowed to take revenge.

So as soon as he got back, he came to cause trouble for Chen Shi.

However, to his surprise, Xiao Fengxiao stepped in to support Chen Shi, which made it difficult for him to directly take action against Chen Shi.

Just then, the day for determining the ranks arrived, and Lu'er learned that Chen Shi had also applied for martial arts training and would be summoned along with him.

Therefore, he bribed the steward who assisted Steward Sun in advance, so that he could designate Chen Shi as his opponent during the sparring session!

It was ostensibly a friendly sparring match, but in reality, it was a way to settle personal scores!

"If you can walk out of the training ground standing up today, I'll take your surname!"

Lu'er lowered his voice, a sinister smile creeping across his lips.

Chen Shi was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was going on, and couldn't help but smile and say.

"Today's order is no child's play; I advise you to find another competitor."

"What, scared now? Hmph, too late!"

Lu'er snorted coldly, her face full of smugness again.

"You should have known this day would come the day you offended me!"

"My final piece of advice is to find a different opponent."

"I'll fucking beat you to a pulp! Today I'm going to cripple you!"

With a low growl, Lu'er got into a fighting stance.

Good advice is useless against a stubborn fool. Chen Shi shook his head helplessly and said no more.

Faced with Lu'er, who was already poised to attack, he stood still without making any move.

"Lu'er is about to make a move, why isn't this kid reacting?"

"They've probably given up."

"It's also possible that after obtaining the martial arts manual, he didn't practice it much at all, so he doesn't know how to deal with it now."

"Damn it, Lu'er really got lucky in this second assessment, picking such a weak opponent."

"What do you mean by lucky? I think he clearly bribed the manager beforehand. But the second round was just a formality anyway, so he was just wasting his money."

"It's a pity for this unlucky guy who got picked; he'll get beaten up for nothing."

Seeing that a fight was about to break out, another murmur arose among the crowd.

Steward Sun, who was sitting there, glanced at it, then looked away and ignored it.

He could easily see that Lu'er had bribed the steward and deliberately chosen a weak opponent for their sparring match.

However, as mentioned before, since the strength test has already been passed, the second test is just a formality and there's no need to worry too much about it.

As for the examiners, this was the Jing'an Marquis's residence, and they were eager for as many people as possible to be ranked, to please the Marquis's household. As long as there weren't any major problems, they would turn a blind eye, so they wouldn't dare to actively cause trouble.

"Chen Shi! Prepare to die!"

With a loud shout, Lu'er, like a mad bull, pounced on Chen Shi.

It must be said that Lu'er has indeed put in some effort in her cultivation during the two months she spent at the manor, and this move is already quite impressive.

Unfortunately, they are far inferior to Zhang Xiaotian and Du Yueming.

Chen Shi simply turned slightly to the side and easily dodged. Suddenly, a playful thought popped into his head, and he immediately tripped her.

thump!

Lu'er's move was an all-out attack with no room for maneuver, and since he was attacking in anger, he used all his strength.

Tripped by Chen Shi, he almost flew out and crashed heavily to the ground.

This is……

Everyone was stunned by what they saw.

"Haha~ I fell flat on my face!"

Immediately afterwards, a burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.

Whether it's Chen Shi or Lu'er, it's none of their business. Watching either of them make a fool of themselves is the same; it's all fun.

Steward Sun, who was sitting over there, instantly turned pale.

If he can't even beat an ordinary person, what kind of character is Lu'er?

"Even horses can stumble, and people can make mistakes. I think he was just careless for a moment, and it shouldn't be a big problem."

The examiner, on the contrary, quickly smiled and offered a few explanations.

After all, only Lu'er has passed the strength test so far. If Lu'er can't be ranked, this year's competition will be a complete disaster, and it might not look good for the Jing'an Marquis's mansion.

As an examiner, he would also be reprimanded by his superiors when he returned.

"屮!"

Lu'er was stunned by the fall. It took her a while to come to her senses. She cursed and got up, spitting out a mouthful of bloody saliva. She looked at Chen Shi with even more resentment.

"I'll fucking kill you!"

Immediately afterwards, Lu'er lunged at Chen Shi again.

However, having learned from his previous experience, he held back this time and paid special attention to tripping Chen Shi up.

Chen Shi remained standing in place, his body swaying as he easily dodged the attack. He then took the opportunity to circle behind Lu'er and kicked her hard in the buttocks.

thump!

Lu'er fell flat on her face again.

"Falling down again? Haha!"

There was a moment of surprise in the crowd, followed by another burst of laughter.

Interesting, fun!

"It's nothing, it's just a coincidence."

Why did you fall again?

The examiner scratched his head and quickly offered an explanation.

Steward Sun ignored him and looked at Chen Shi, his eyes lighting up slightly.

"Aaaaaah!"

Having fallen twice in a row, not only did he fail to get revenge, but he also embarrassed himself in public. Lu'er roared angrily, got up and charged at Chen Shi again.

With a playful expression, Chen Shi couldn't help but feel more mischievous. He didn't confront Lu'er directly, but instead dodged left and right, taking the opportunity to trip or kick Lu'er.

For a moment, Lu'er was like a mad bull, charging back and forth, but she couldn't even touch the hem of Chen Shi's clothes. Instead, she kept falling down, getting bruised and swollen.

"Huh? This young man..."

As an examiner, he had some real skills, and he could easily see that something was wrong. He let out a soft exclamation and looked at Steward Sun beside him.

"I can't figure out his approach."

Steward Sun pondered for a moment, then smiled and said.

"It doesn't seem like a specially trained movement technique; it's more like dodging based entirely on instinct."

"instinct?"

The examiner's eyes widened slightly, a look of surprise on his face.

He could tell that although Lu'er kept falling, her moves were actually quite powerful. In this situation, she was able to dodge them all by instinct.

"As expected of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion, even a mere servant possesses such talent."

Coming to his senses, the examiner quickly seized the opportunity to offer a compliment.

Steward Sun smiled and nodded slightly. He was indeed a good material for martial arts training. Even if no one could successfully appraise him, it would still be a matter of face.

"Chen Shi! Don't try to hide! I'll kill you!"

Getting up from the ground again, Lu'er let out a hysterical roar, appearing almost insane.

Is this really true?

Chen Shi's face suddenly darkened; he had had enough fun.

The next moment, he rushed towards Lu'er and, without saying a word, swept his leg across her!
