Wu Shattered Star River
#177 - Chapter 177: Defeat in One Move
"Someone with Mountain Sea Realm First Level dares to challenge someone with Mountain Sea Realm Third Level? Is this newly initiated disciple crazy?"
"Heh, he just entered and wants to show off. A clown trying to impress!"
"I heard he came with the descendant of the Undying Lord, haha… the Undying Lord's descendant didn't stand out, but he dares to? Does he think no one in our Flying Immortal Hall is capable?"
"Senior Brother Liu has two powerful divine abilities. His overall combat power is no weaker than Mountain Sea Realm Fourth Level. This idiot is probably going to be beaten into a pig's head…"
"You can't say that. He dared to challenge the Flying Immortal List right away, so he probably has something!"
Discussions constantly arose from the surroundings, mostly ridicule and pessimism.
After all, Liu Zhen had been in the Flying Immortal Hall for five or six years and had been on the Flying Immortal List many times. His best ranking was ninety-fourth, which was considered a strong person in the hearts of many disciples.
Jiang Han was new here, so young, and his cultivation was only at the Mountain Sea Realm First Level. In the hearts of many disciples, this inevitably gave the feeling of youthful arrogance and ignorance, so naturally no one favored him.
Jiang Han didn't leap up like Liu Zhen but slowly walked up the stone steps.
Faced with the surrounding ridicule, his expression was calm.
He wasn't trying to show off but to obtain more resources and quickly improve his combat power. He didn't care what the disciples in the hall thought of him.
The Flying Immortal Platform was very large, with a circumference of two hundred zhang, all constructed of soil, without stone slabs on top.
This was because battles often broke out here, and stone slabs were easily shattered, making maintenance troublesome.
Additionally, some martial artists awakened earth-type divine abilities, and covering the platform with stone slabs would be unfair to those martial artists.
Seeing that the Flying Immortal Platform was made of rammed earth, Jiang Han felt relieved. He walked to the opposite side of Liu Zhen and looked at the flag bearer below the platform.
"No killing is allowed, but any other means are permitted!"
The flag bearer flew up and landed on the north side of the Flying Immortal Platform. He waved his hand and said, "Begin."
Liu Zhen didn't move, looking at Jiang Han contemptuously as he spoke, "You just entered. As your senior brother, I'll let you have three moves. You can attack first."
"Senior Brother Liu is generous!"
"Senior Brother Liu is mighty and domineering!"
"Don't say three moves, even if Senior Brother Liu uses his wind-type divine ability and lets him have a hundred moves, he probably wouldn't even be able to touch a piece of Senior Brother Liu's sleeve, right?"
The disciples of Dragon Mark Peak cheered loudly, and other disciples followed suit, applauding Liu Zhen.
"Idiot…"
Jiang Lang shook his head repeatedly below. This Liu Zhen was really a genius! Letting Jiang Han have three moves? This was asking for trouble.
Jiang Han touched his head. At first, he was thinking about遁地 (dùn dì -遁: escape; 地: ground) going underground and then using the Thunder Serpent divine ability for a sneak attack.
Now this idiot was actually standing still, wanting to let him have three moves? He wouldn't be polite with such a good thing.
A battle knife appeared in Jiang Han's hand. He took out the battle knife issued by the Flying Immortal Hall, which was an Earth-rank battle knife, but only a low-grade Earth-rank.
He walked towards Liu Zhen with the knife at a moderate pace. The power of thunder within the Profound Nether Altar was quietly mobilized. The surroundings quieted down, and all eyes locked onto Jiang Han and Liu Zhen.
Fifty zhang, thirty zhang!
Liu Zhen was very conceited. Jiang Han didn't make any moves even when he was thirty zhang away, just holding a long sword and staring at Jiang Han coldly.
Twenty zhang, ten zhang!
Jiang Han's body suddenly leaped up like a cheetah. In mid-air, he raised his battle knife high, bringing with it five afterimages, and heavily chopped down at Liu Zhen.
Sevenfold Blade!
After such a long time, Jiang Han's understanding of this profound skill had deepened further, and now he could conjure five afterimages, greatly increasing his power.
"Heh!"
Liu Zhen sneered. Jiang Han's speed was too slow in his eyes. A martial artist at the Mountain Sea Realm First Level could only be so fast, which posed no pressure for him at all.
A blue light lit up on his legs, and his figure flashed like a ghost. Afterimages appeared in the arena, and he appeared one zhang away.
"Huh?"
As he moved, he suddenly noticed something. Jiang Han's body was actually frozen in mid-air? A look of astonishment appeared on his face, and the next moment, his expression suddenly changed.
He found that Jiang Han's figure had actually materialized behind him, with lightning flashing in his hand. More than a dozen Thunder Serpents frantically swept towards him, blocking all directions he could avoid.
The only thing he could do was retreat.
But Jiang Han appeared too suddenly. Just now, his attention was attracted by Jiang Han's phantom that was frozen in mid-air, and he couldn't react in time.
By the time he wanted to retreat, the sky full of Thunder Serpents had already flown over, and he was hit by three Thunder Serpents.
"Chī chī!"
A puff of green smoke rose, and Liu Zhen felt like his hair, eyebrows, and skin were burning, and a burnt smell came from his whole body. His body trembled uncontrollably, like he was having an epileptic seizure, shaking non-stop.
"Shuā!"
Jiang Han's long knife floated over lightly and rested on Liu Zhen's neck. He said calmly, "Senior Brother Liu, you yield!"
"…"
The entire audience was silent at this moment, looking at Liu Zhen, whose body was trembling and twitching, his skin charred, and his eyebrows and hair still emitting green smoke.
Looking at Jiang Han, whose face was as calm as water, holding the knife against Liu Zhen, many people's faces showed disbelief.
Most people present thought that Liu Zhen would win, and would win easily, after all, the cultivation was two levels apart, and Liu Zhen was also a well-known expert.
But he didn't expect Liu Zhen to lose, and to lose in one move!
Just as the two of them had exchanged blows, many people were still thinking about how Jiang Han would struggle to support himself later, how he would cope with Liu Zhen's continuous attacks, but they didn't expect the ending to be like this.
Jiang Han put away his long knife and slowly retreated.
"Good!"
Bai Li Ju's loud cry of approval broke the silence in the arena. His face was full of smiles, and he couldn't hide the appreciation in his eyes. He cheered loudly, "Junior Brother Jiang, well done!"
Liu Zhen's body trembled for several breaths before he barely stabilized. He glanced around the arena, saw countless strange gazes, and roared in shame and anger, "This time doesn't count… you… sneak attack… we… fight again…"
"Idiot!"
Bai Li Ju snorted coldly, his body directly soaring into the air and leaping onto the Flying Immortal Platform. He looked at Liu Zhen and said coldly, "Don't embarrass yourself here, go back to Dragon Mark Peak."
Many disciples showed disdain. Liu Zhen himself had acted cool, wanting to let Jiang Han have three moves, but now he was actually saying that Jiang Han had sneak attacked?
What was called a sneak attack? A head-on fight was also called a sneak attack? Taking a step back, even if it was a sneak attack, so what? On the Flying Immortal Platform, any means were allowed, as long as you could win, even if it was releasing hallucinogenic smoke.
The flag bearer of the Flying Immortal Platform said with a blank expression, "In this challenge, Jiang Han wins. Jiang Han is listed on the Flying Immortal List and enjoys the treatment of a Flying Immortal List disciple."
The flag bearer flashed and arrived at the wall on the north side. With a wave of his hand, Liu Zhen's name disappeared, and Jiang Han's name appeared on it.
Liu Zhen looked at his name being erased, a look of hatred in his eyes, and said to Jiang Han, "Jiang Han, wait for me for a month. After a month, I will personally take back the glory I lost!"
The winner of the Flying Immortal List challenge can have a month of immunity from challenges. This was the rule of the Flying Immortal Platform.
After Liu Zhen finished speaking, he turned around and flew down, rushing into the crowd and running wildly towards the distance. The faces of the people from Dragon Mark Peak were not good, and they quickly followed and left.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Jiang!"
Bai Li Ju's face was full of smiles, patted Jiang Han's shoulder, and grinned, "Work hard later and try to break into the top fifty of the Flying Immortal List."
"Everyone, disperse!"
The flag bearer waved his hand and was about to jump down the Flying Immortal Platform and return to the small courtyard.
"Flag Bearer, wait!"
At this moment, Jiang Lang suddenly spoke, his body soaring into the air and bowing, "Disciple Jiang Lang, also wants to challenge the Flying Immortal List."
"Shuā!"
"Shuā!"
Qi Bing and Zuo Yiyi followed closely behind and flew onto the Flying Immortal Platform. The two bowed at the same time and said:
"Disciple Qi Bing, willing to challenge the Flying Immortal List."
"Disciple Zuo Yiyi, willing to challenge the Flying Immortal List!"
"Huā!"
The audience was in an uproar, and Bai Li Ju was stunned. These junior brothers and sisters were a bit fierce!
On the first day of entry, they were all preparing to rub their senior brothers and sisters in the chamber pot?
