BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28 - Didn’t Anyone Tell You Not to Speak Too Soon?
Lin Rufeng was quick-tempered and blurted it out.
This immediately attracted a lot of attention.
Including Feng Qingshan.
In an instant, everyone around turned to look.
“It’s an academy disciple!”
The standard academy attire quickly revealed his identity.
Feng Qingshan’s gaze turned slightly cold.
“Since you have a different opinion, why not step up and compete?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Rufeng’s expression changed slightly.
With his strength, how could he possibly be Feng Qingshan’s opponent?
He would probably be defeated in one move!
“Afraid, are you?”
Feng Qingshan sneered, “It seems that academy disciples can only rely on their words.”
“You!”
Lin Rufeng immediately tore the white cloth from his spear.
Since the other party had said such things, he couldn’t endure it any longer!
Even if he was destined to lose, he had to step up!
However, at that moment, a hand rested on his shoulder.
Lin Rufeng instinctively turned his head.
It was Luo Mu.
“Just a small fry; there’s no need for Senior Brother Lin to take action,” Luo Mu said with a smile.
Hiss!
Upon hearing this, a gasp rose around them.
Small fry…
He really dared to say that.
“Junior Brother Luo.”
Cheng Qingman’s eyes flashed with concern.
Anger aside, she was still clear-headed about reality.
In terms of martial arts foundation, Luo Mu and Feng Qingshan were not much different.
Both had mastered two mid-tier Profound Rank martial skills.
One was perfected, and the other was at a small success level.
But Luo Mu’s cultivation level was only at the fifth level, while Feng Qingshan was at the ninth.
There was a gap.
It was basically very difficult for him to defeat Feng Qingshan.
“It’s fine. I’ll be back soon.”
Luo Mu gave her a reassuring look.
Deep down, he actually didn’t want to get involved in this mess.
It would be best to stay out of it.
However, he was still an academy disciple.
When he went out, he represented the academy.
Since the other party had spoken so brazenly, he couldn’t just turn a blind eye.
Rather than waiting for Lin Rufeng to be defeated, it was better for him to step up right away and resolve this.
With that thought, he gently tapped his toes and landed on the square, facing Feng Qingshan from a distance.
“Outer palace disciple? Only at the fifth level of the True Aperture Realm?”
Feng Qingshan initially thought he was facing a formidable opponent since he had dared to call him a small fry.
But upon closer inspection,
he was almost stunned.
“What? An outer palace disciple? And only at the fifth level of the True Aperture Realm!”
“Where does he get his confidence?”
In an instant, the crowd erupted with disbelief.
Even Yuan Nongbai, at the ninth level of the True Aperture Realm, had lost. What chance did a fifth-level True Aperture Realm disciple have?
What could he possibly use to win?
Why would he think he could win?
“It seems I need to reconsider the younger generation; the disciples from the academy are indeed hard to describe.”
Many shook their heads.
Inside the tavern.
The dramatic scene also drew the attention of the Ninth Prince and others.
“This is nonsense.”
The head of the Yuan family snorted coldly, “Even my son lost; this outer palace disciple actually dares to challenge Feng Qingshan. Truly unaware of the sky’s height and the earth’s depth!”
“Indeed, I wonder where this young man got his courage,”
other family heads nodded in agreement.
However, the Ninth Prince’s face showed interest.
In his understanding.
No one should dare to pull such a stunt.
Unless they had some confidence.
In that moment, he couldn’t help but feel curious.
His gaze fixated on Luo Mu.
“Let me tell you, Junior Brother Luo is quite impressive. Don’t underestimate him!”
Seeing the surrounding people mock and ridicule, Lin Rufeng immediately rebutted.
After all, if he hadn’t been unable to hold back his words,
Junior Brother Luo wouldn’t have had to step up.
So his position must be unwavering.
“Indeed, be careful; you might be surprised by the outcome.”
Jiang Hai added.
“Go for it, Junior Brother Luo!”
Cheng Qingman waved her hands.
“Once I defeat you, the aristocratic families of Xunyang City may become even more disappointed in the academy.”
“From this perspective, I should thank you,”
Feng Qingshan said softly.
“Didn’t anyone tell you not to speak too soon?”
Luo Mu placed his right hand on the hilt at his waist, his expression calm as he spoke slowly.
“Too soon?”
Feng Qingshan laughed heartily, “You can’t seriously think you have a chance of winning against me?”
“You talk too much.”
Luo Mu shook his head slightly, then looked at the steward of the Wanxiang Pavilion, “Changle Academy—Luo Mu, challenging Feng Qingshan.”
“Do you accept the challenge?”
The steward looked at Feng Qingshan.
“Of course!”
Feng Qingshan snorted.
“Changle Academy’s Luo Mu challenges the Xuantian Sword Sect’s Feng Qingshan!”
“Begin!”
The steward was very decisive, with no unnecessary words.
“I’ll finish you with one sword!”
Feng Qingshan’s gaze turned icy as he unsheathed his sword and used all his strength.
Although he appeared dismissive, he didn’t underestimate his opponent.
Just a fifth-level True Aperture Realm martial artist dared to step up.
Either he was insane,
or he had hidden trump cards.
So he had to take this seriously; even a lion uses all its strength when hunting a rabbit!
“Canglan Sword Technique—Tide!”
Feng Qingshan slashed with his sword, and the sword Qi surged forth like a rushing tide toward Luo Mu!
“Is Feng Qingshan taking this too seriously? That sword is nearly full power!”
Someone exclaimed in surprise.
He remembered that Feng Qingshan had used a similar technique against Yuan Nongbai earlier.
But now, his opponent was just a fifth-level True Aperture Realm martial artist.
“What pressure! My blood… finally starting to boil!”
Faced with this sword, Luo Mu’s lips gradually curled upward.
His previously calm demeanor began to change.
