Life Reversal

Everyone present, except for Lu Chen and the Peerless Princess, was incredibly frustrated.

Yang Sheng from Tianyu Academy almost threw up from his upset stomach.

Strictly speaking, Tianyu Academy was an opponent of the royal family, and they had come to witness the Peerless Princess's downfall.

Instead, he became the guarantor and the joke.

Of course, he could have refused.

But it was obvious that no matter the outcome, the matter would definitely spread.

If even the royal princess couldn't be protected, who could you protect?

For Tianyu Academy, which desperately needed recognition from other countries, such negative news could absolutely not appear.

As for Qiu Mo, refusal was even less of an option.

If he dared to say no, the Qiu family would be secretly eradicated the next day.

Eating from the royal family, using the royal family's resources, yet not daring to offer even a guarantee, what use are you?

In short, everyone present was extremely depressed.

It was as if they had been dragged into the vortex of their death match. They hoped the Little Wolf King could defeat Lu Chen.

Although Lu Chen had the upper hand in their earlier fight, no one believed the Little Wolf King was that weak.

He must have a trump card, otherwise, he wouldn't have initiated a death match.

After all, he was the Little Wolf King, the future successor of the Wolf Court; he couldn't just be a reckless brute.

Lu Chen could see this, of course.

But even if the Little Wolf King was a Martial Dao Cultivator in the Void Breaking Realm, he wouldn't be afraid. And he was only at the seventh level of the True Martial Realm.

Everyone arrived at the arena outside the main hall. Lu Chen leaped into the center, and the enraged Little Wolf King charged forward with his saber.

It was the Qiankun Saber, made by connecting two curved blades, possessing immense destructive power.

The man moved with the saber, the saber moved with the man. The field of vision was filled with saber light, cutting the air with a piercing shriek.

It was like a rotating killing machine.

Death Spiral.

The Little Wolf King revealed his trump card right from the start.

The moment Lu Chen made contact with his opponent, he was instantly caught.

The dense saber light struck the bone blade, each blow more ferocious than the last, continuous and unending.

The sound of clanging was incessant.

The blade seemed to have a spinning wheel of thorns attached to it, spinning faster and faster.

Lu Chen retreated continuously around the arena.

His hands holding the saber vibrated, shedding mist after mist of blood, even revealing bare white bone.

This was even with the True Martial Armor's enhancement; his bare arms would have been gone long ago.

After delivering three hundred consecutive strikes, Lu Chen circled the arena three times. When his opponent finally tired, he finally gained a moment to breathe.

But he never expected that this was the most dangerous moment.

The instant the saber light vanished, his opponent executed a reverse cut.

And it was incredibly fast.

In a single exchange, the bone blade was knocked away.

The saber wheel slashed diagonally from below his crotch, directly splitting Lu Chen in half.

Unfortunately, what it cut was only Lu Chen's afterimage.

The main body, in that moment of respite, used Wind and Thunder Steps to flash three meters to the left.

A cold breeze blew from where his crotch had been, and his legs trembled.

He was completely terrified.

The entire scene fell into dead silence, everyone's hearts hanging in their throats.

The Peerless Princess's hands were clenched tightly, clearly also unsettled.

Waves of emotion stirred in her heart.

In an extremely passive situation, Lu Chen's face was starting to burn.

Was this the ability to stop others from coveting the princess?

He was truly ashamed!

But it also completely enraged him.

To launch a surprise attack the moment he entered the arena, this was a sneak attack.

Not only was it ferocious, but it was also insidious and cunning. Truly worthy of a bastard with the demonic wolf bloodline.

Buzz!

The space trembled as the True Martial Armor clad Lu Chen.

The snow-white armor blinded everyone present.

Many ladies on the scene covered their mouths, their eyes sparkling.

What a cool set of armor.

The Peerless Princess's heart trembled violently, a warm current rising from the depths of her heart.

This scoundrel's armor was completely different from others. Not only did it lack a ferocious appearance, but it also possessed a sense of beauty, without sacrificing its dominance and pressure.

The Little Wolf King opposite narrowed his eyes and, with a buzz, activated his own True Martial Armor.

A blood-red armor appeared, his body swelling several times.

Wild, ferocious.

The Qiankun Saber split, and he leaped up like a bolt of lightning, his saber light pouring down like mercury.

BOOM!

Two long gullies were blasted into the ground.

Before he could even retract his saber, saber energy suddenly appeared from his left.

The Little Wolf King twisted his body, the saber energy vanished, and then reappeared on his right.

Just as he was about to draw his saber, the saber energy's position changed again.

Back and forth, it never ended.

The Little Wolf King grew more disheartened and terrified, gradually falling into Lu Chen's attack rhythm.

He was almost dizzy from spinning.

Although he missed every strike, he dared not let his guard down for a single moment.

But, suddenly, saber energy came from all four directions simultaneously.

Incredibly fast!

BOOM!

He blocked two bone blades with his sabers, kicked away one strike, but couldn't dodge the fourth, which pierced his stomach.

His dantian was pierced.

He twisted it forcefully.

BOOM!

The Little Wolf King exploded entirely.

The space trembled, and the opponent reappeared at the edge of the battlefield.

His face was deathly pale as he watched the three clones merge back into Lu Chen, his expression extremely grim.

Not only did the opponent possess the divine ability of teleportation, but he also had clones.

Each one was extraordinarily powerful.

Clearly, the opponent's bloodline was superior to his own, at least in terms of divine abilities.

His own divine ability was Life Reversal, which had just dodged the fatal attack. Although it was already monstrous, it could only prevent one death.

It could only be activated when facing a fatal threat and was a passive divine ability.

Lu Chen was also stunned.

What kind of divine ability was that?

He didn't manage to kill him.

He had pierced his dantian!

The others from the Wolf Court quickly shielded the Little Wolf King and admitted defeat, taking him away rapidly.

Everyone else present also breathed a sigh of relief, except for the Peerless Princess.

If possible, she wished he had been killed, but unfortunately, the opponent's divine ability was too monstrous.

"I have disappointed the Young Marshal!" Lu Chen sheathed his saber and cupped his fists towards the Peerless Princess, speaking politely.

"No need for pleasantries, I am very satisfied with this outcome!"

Being defeated in front of everyone, the Little Wolf King would no longer have any excuse to harass her or arrogantly propose marriage.

"Ji Bafang, you first escort everyone back to the main hall and entertain them well. Lu Chen and I have some matters to discuss. Go!"

Ji Bafang quickly nodded, gave Lu Chen a nod before leaving, and led everyone back to the main hall.

Lu Chen then followed the Peerless Princess to a pavilion behind them.

Someone had already arranged wine and refreshments, and a clever maid was serving them.

"Lu Chen, Yun Niang mentioned to you about creating a hundred-person bloodline awakening squad. Can it really be done?"

The Peerless Princess got straight to the point, then added, "Just name any requests you have!"

"Nothing else for now, but there is one thing, Yun Niang needs to join..." Lu Chen frowned slightly as he spoke.

"What is it?" the Peerless Princess asked, confused.

"I don't know if she's awakened her bloodline yet. If she hasn't..."

"She has!" the Peerless Princess said.

"Really?" Lu Chen's spirits lifted. "What bloodline? Has she awakened Spiritual Power?"

The Peerless Princess's lips twitched. "You can ask her yourself later. I don't want to say anything more!"

"Alright, alright, it's good that she's awakened. That little girl is quite capable, my efforts weren't wasted."

The Peerless Princess hesitated. "You... even if you two adventured together before, you're treating her so well. Could it be..."

Lu Chen smiled. "I really like the feeling of being with her. If she's willing, I want to marry her!"

"This... I hope the Princess won't stand in the way!"

The Peerless Princess's eyes flickered. "Perhaps it's not as simple as you think!"

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean? You're not going to interfere, are you?"

"I won't interfere, it's just... never mind. I'll talk to her when we meet. Let's talk about the awakening, I want it to happen as soon as possible!"

"That's simple. I'll give you the Blood Jade, and you can pick the people. Then you'll have it set up, right?"

"Ah... Ah?" The Peerless Princess was stunned on the spot.
