Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes - Chapter 561 - 553: But Only Lasted One Move Against Shen Han
Shen Han couldn’t see where the Spirit Bone was located.
If he could find this Spirit Bone, he could test whether his mysterious abilities could extract the entries of this Spirit Bone.
Looking at Shen Ye behind Luo Changping, he grimaced in pain.
Although possessing the Spirit Bone, he still feels pain after being injured.
In front of Shen Han, Dean Tianyi was already blocking the way.
Two formidable Immortals of the Second Grade were facing off.
The onlookers, the common folk, chatted among themselves.
Their conversations mainly revolved around the grievances between Shen Han and Shen Ye.
In the eyes of these onlookers, what they saw might be far from the truth.
According to the talk of the commoners, the main conflict between Shen Han and Shen Ye was over women.
The imperial marriage decree was the beginning of the brothers’ feud.
It started with competing for a woman, then gradually developed into competition for the family estate and the title.
Now, it has escalated to a life-and-death struggle.
However, all of this is merely hearsay…
“Luo Changping, causing trouble here, you can try and see what the consequences are.”
Dean Tianyi glared at her angrily, watching to see what she intended to do.
In contrast to Dean Tianyi’s angry glare, Luo Changping remained calm.
She glanced at Shen Han, seemingly deep in thought, but said nothing.
Shen Han was not afraid at all and simply looked her in the eye.
He calmly faced this formidable Second Grade Immortal.
The standoff lasted for quite a while before Luo Changping waved her hand, signaling someone to retrieve Shen Ye’s mechanical leg.
Shen Ye swallowed a pill to suppress the intense pain from his severed leg.
As he left the Martial Arts Arena, Shen Ye couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Shen Han.
His gaze was venomous, with a clear intent of a fight to the death.
Facing this gaze, Shen Han remained calm.
Their fight to the death was long predetermined.
If not for the public, he would have drawn out his Poisonous Longsword long ago.
One strike to Shen Ye’s chest, and not even the Heavenly King could save him.
But doing so in front of everyone would give Luo Changping an excuse to act against him directly.
Shen Han wasn’t foolish enough to bring trouble upon himself.
Seeing Luo Changping leave, Dean Tianyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Today, as Young Master Ye, who was undergoing the assessment, was seriously injured.
As you all can see, it is naturally unsuitable for him to take on this responsibility any longer.
The rules revert to their original state, with challenge points as the final judgment criterion.”
After Dean Tianyi finished speaking, Shen Han was in no hurry to leave.
He continued standing in the Martial Arts Arena.
After half a quarter of an hour, no one dared to step forward to challenge him, so he gained ten points, marking the end of his task for the day.
Under the challenge system, each person could win a maximum of ten points.
Either wait for others to challenge them or step forward to challenge others, earning one point for each victory.
Even if one never lost a match, each person was limited to earning ten points, preventing further challenges.
This competition rule was actually disadvantageous to Tianyi Academy.
Instead, it benefitted Mountain Sea Academy, which had a generally stronger average strength.
With Shen Ye’s interference gone, order was much better in the Martial Arts Arena.
The entire academy’s tournament continued as planned.
However, the onlookers, including spectators from other sects, were somewhat uninterested.
After watching the bouts involving Sikong Miaomiao, Shen Ye, and Shen Han,
seeing other younger participants fighting, there was a noticeable lack of excitement.
The strength of the other young people distinctly lags behind.
Regarding both strength and the depth of techniques and methods, there was a significant drop.
With such comparisons, it was indeed hard to stir up interest.
However, top talents like Shen Han and others being rare is quite normal.
For Great Wei, even producing one or two is already commendable.
Yun’an City, Shen Mansion.
By rights, Shen Qingshan should have already gone to the eastern barracks these days.
But as Shen Ye went to the Capital City to duel with Shen Han,
pondering something, Shen Qingshan delayed his plans a bit.
At this moment, Shen Qingshan sat in his courtyard.
In the pond before him, new fish had been placed again.
Perhaps one day, if he felt displeased, these fish would also meet their end.
Originally, as the academy tournament began, Shen Qingshan sat in his room, listening to scouts relay real-time updates from the Capital City.
At first, he was all smiles until Meng Yuzhong from Mountain Sea Academy appeared.
But when Sikong Miaomiao took the stage, Shen Qingshan’s expression began to change.
Especially upon hearing that Shen Ye was at a disadvantage, Shen Qingshan’s face immediately fell.
Seeing Shen Qingshan leave the room, both Madam Shen and Madam He also departed.
After leaving, they went to the offering shrine in Shen Mansion.
In murmured prayers, they wished for Shen Ye to win the duel.
They also prayed for the Immortal Gods’ blessing, hoping for Shen Han to meet his end today.
Even if he survived, at least he would suffer a crippling fate…
About two hours later, a Shen Family servant timidly approached Shen Qingshan’s side.
“Patriarch, Young Master Ye and Young Master Han’s duel has concluded…”
This servant spoke nervously, as if afraid of being punished.
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingshan raised his head, staring at the servant for quite a while.
Shen Qingshan felt some dissatisfaction with the servant also calling Shen Han ’Young Master,’ but he kept it to himself.
For the servants, they indeed dared not arbitrarily change the way they addressed him.
