Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes - Chapter 370 - 369: Victory and Defeat, Decided
Chapter 370: Chapter 369: Victory and Defeat, Decided
Today’s duel draws many from Xiaoyao Peak to observe.
Those who focus deeply on the Sword Dao dare not speak of the ultimate.
Shen Ye, who studies both the Scholar’s Skill and Martial Arts Technique, surprisingly seems to dare to say so.
If it were someone else, perhaps they would have been belittled to an unimaginable state.
But Shen Ye, at the age of twenty-four, has entered the Fourth Grade First Snow Realm.
Just this alone is enough to make people expect more from him.
Shen Ye, stepping on the void, tightly holds his long sword in hand.
And his gaze is also firmly fixed on the sword.
The originally hot summer day seems to acknowledge the duel between the two, bringing a hint of coolness.
Everyone is waiting, waiting for Shen Ye to make his move.
Having entered the Fourth Grade Realm, he already holds an absolute advantage, Shen Han cannot strike first.
The gap between grades is actually quite large.
The difference between the Fifth Grade Fruit Realm and the Fourth Grade First Snow Realm is already greater than that between the Fifth Grade Fruit Realm and the Fifth Grade First Snow Realm.
Moreover, Shen Han is currently only in the Fifth Grade Half-Step Realm.
Of course, in the eyes of those who come to watch, it is not that the Fifth Grade Half-Step Realm is not excellent enough.
To step into this realm at nineteen is already extremely remarkable.
But unfortunately, the person Shen Han has to face is a worldly genius like Shen Ye.
As everyone waits, the sword in Shen Ye’s hand, under his gaze,
breaks…
The sword body splits in the middle.
Thus, only a broken sword remains in his hand.
“So this is its limit, still far from the ultimate I’ve seen.”
Shen Ye murmurs softly, then lightly flicks the broken sword body with his finger.
“The sword breaks its body, in pursuit of the ultimate.
Though broken today, its spirit still remains.
Let this broken sword end this ridiculous duel.”
Shen Ye utters these light words.
Those with absolute confidence lose interest in arguing with others.
Just like Shen Ye at this moment, he does not need to speak loudly, nor does he need to draw the attention of others.
Strategies, tricks, he does not need any of them.
Even though his sword is broken, he remains completely unconcerned.
In this battle, there is no other possibility.
He, Shen Ye, is bound to win.
With these light words spoken, the broken sword is already thrusting out.
The originally broken sword body appears even more imposing.
The power of the broken sword is enough to captivate the soul.
At this moment, those lacking strength can no longer see Shen Ye’s moves.
Earlier, some shadows could still be seen, but now, one can only hear its sound.
In the eyes of the crowd, this should be the end of the duel.
The outcome of this confrontation will be as everyone anticipated, Shen Ye wins.
However, Shen Han forcing Shen Ye to such an extent is already remarkably astonishing.
He may not match Shen Ye now, but in ten years or so, Shen Han might surpass Shen Ye.
The future is promising.
At the center of the dueling ground, Shen Ye has already thrust with his broken sword.
Not only does everyone else think he will win, he believes so too.
Outside, the observing Dean Tianyi wears a grave expression.
He is ready to intervene.
This sword strike, Shen Han cannot withstand it, and he will undoubtedly sustain significant injuries, possibly even injuring his foundation.
The duel may be lost, but as the dean, he naturally cannot allow Shen Han to be hurt again.
Meanwhile, Luo Zuchen’s gaze is fixed on Dean Tianyi.
He too anticipates that Dean Tianyi will intervene to protect Shen Han.
What he has to do is to stop Dean Tianyi at all costs.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Ye’s broken sword has arrived.
Dean Tianyi moves, and Luo Zuchen moves as well.
Although Luo Zuchen’s strength is inferior to Dean Tianyi’s, there is no problem in stalling him for a moment.
Seeing this, Shi Yuezhu at the back of the crowd also prepares to take action.
But…
In the center of the dueling ground, the expected scene does not occur.
The broken sword in Shen Ye’s hand is currently parrying against Shen Han’s blade.
This parry unexpectedly makes it difficult for Shen Ye to advance further!
The previously extremely arrogant Shen Ye is momentarily stunned.
He is Fourth Grade, he has already entered Fourth Grade!
How is it possible? How can Shen Han resist this?
But what can disbelief do when the blade in Shen Han’s hand has already met his.
He assumed he would definitely win, but at this moment, Shen Han’s long sword not only does not retreat but advances.
It is even stronger than when Shen Ye did not display such strength before.
Countless sword shadows gather around, and the long sword thrusts out with Misty Sword Intent.
At this moment, even the surrounding onlookers are completely stunned.
How could they not see that Shen Han has also stepped into the Fourth Grade…
A duel between two young men, facing each other, and it’s Fourth Grade…
Many speculate that both should have used cultivation techniques to temporarily enhance their strength realm.
But such cultivation techniques can have severe backlash effects.
To use them so casually in a duel?
On second thought, this is a competition for the Shen Family title, for the inheritance rights, making such sacrifices is expected.
But such a large enhancement at once, how terrifying would the backlash be?
If the body’s foundation is damaged, what if they become crippled…
These spectators are worried.
But the two in the dueling ground are not thinking about that at all.
Shen Ye possesses a spirit bone, believing that Shen Han absolutely cannot use such techniques without fearing the backlash like him.
Perhaps it won’t be long before Shen Han is consumed by the rising backlash.
The two begin to entangle each other in combat.
The swords in their hands clash, and the disadvantage of the broken sword becomes evident.
The arrogance previously spoken of, about the sword’s ultimate and the sword’s body breaking.
But now it is discovered that the broken sword body leads to the leaking of the sword technique’s power.
Under three moves, Shen Ye is already struggling to hold on.
Shen Ye’s expression turns unpleasant, after hesitating for a moment, he still retrieves a long sword.
The previous boasting about the broken sword now seems incredibly ludicrous.
Shen Han’s sword techniques are unleashed continuously.
As swift as lightning, like turning clouds, like a flying star.
His understanding of the Sword Dao is simply insufficient.
The so-called ultimate of the Sword Dao, as described so mystical in words, is far from the truth.
Shen’s sword strikes become increasingly fierce, and after both attained the Fourth Grade First Snow Realm, all Shen Ye’s so-called suppression vanishes.
Shen Han doesn’t give him any breathing room, using the “Divine Abyss Formulas” to enhance his strength realm without fearing backlash.
However, when drowsiness takes effect, it does have some impact.
After reaching the same realm, Shen Ye finally understands what the Sword Dao is.
What he thought of as the Sword Dao was still too shallow.
When truly facing a strong opponent, he, Shen Ye, simply does not have the strength to deal with it.
Within dozens of breaths, the two begin to pant heavily.
This enhancement of their own strength, even without fearing the backlash, greatly exhausts their energy.
Shen Han no longer waits, his eyes and heart reflect a hint of desperate intent.
Heart toward the desperate, the sword follows suit.
Sword and man in unity, nothing can stand in its way.
In an instant, Shen Han thrusts his sword.
This strike is not the sword’s ultimate, but it is already Shen Han’s ultimate.
Shen Ye seems to want to evade, but this strike seems unavoidable.
With a heavy heart, Shen Ye also raises his sword to meet it, seemingly still a bit unwilling to concede.
Shen Ye even calls upon an abnormal phenomenon, only for it to be shattered upon contact with the Power of Laws.
Under the crowd’s gaze, the blades clash.
Their sound is like thunder, their blades diverging.
Both seem to be injured.
But in the next moment, Shen Han’s long sword is already pointed at Shen Ye’s neck.
The victor and the loser, decided.
Originally thought to be a sure victory for Shen Ye, but at this moment, it tells everyone.
No, it is not so.
When the two are of the same realm, Shen Han wins, Shen Ye loses.
This exchange, even if one seeks an excuse, seems unobtainable.
The entire Shen Mansion is currently silent.
Blood continues to ooze from the corner of Shen Han’s mouth, he holds the sword in his right hand and covers the wound at his waist with his left.
He is dressed in deep blue today, upon closer inspection one can still see the wound relentlessly bleeding.
Before Shen Han, his elder brother Shen Ye, seems unable to accept his defeat, his eyes wide open.
Even, his eye sockets tear open, bleeding profusely…
Not only can he not accept it, neither can Luo Zuchen, Ye Tianxing, nor the Shen family members.
None of them can accept it…
