Chapter 8: Chapter 8: The Fire Poker is also a Dog Beating Stick!
The matter of Lu Chen, even the people of Yuzhou City don't know, how could the martial artists from the other cities be aware?
Lu Zhan's words undoubtedly stirred up a huge commotion!
What virtues and abilities does he Lu Zhan have, to dare insult the pride of Yuzhou City like this?
And what's more, it's his own cousin brother!
Could it be that the Lu Family has produced twin jewels, and they are competing for sothing within the family?
Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces below, a smug look appeared on Lu Zhan's face!
He, Lu Zhan, would begin to make a na for himself starting from Yuzhou City!
"Lu Zhan, cut the crap, let's see the truth under our hands!"
Lu Chen watched coldly, walking straight onto the stage.
"Not bad," sneered Lu Zhan, "It's good to have backbone, but that backbone might just cost you your life!"
Lu Chen retorted, "Did you ever consider sparing my life? Since you didn't, why should I suffer your humiliation?"
He didn't suppress his voice and, standing on high ground, his words reached everyone's ears!
The audience below was once again in uproar!
This wasn't a struggle between prodigies, this was a real duel to the death!
At this mont, Lu Changkong stepped out from the crowd and ascended the stage, walking between the two n.
"Life and death are decreed by fate, wealth and honor are in heaven! Today, under the witness of everyone here, Lu Zhan and Lu Chen have agreed to a duel to the death at the Lu Family's stage! Regardless of victory or defeat, it's all about life and death!"
His voice rang out like a tolling bell, each word seeming to toll the death knell for Lu Chen.
The onlookers, naturally perceptive, knew Lu Chen was a peerless prodigy, but Lu Zhan still dared to challenge him to a duel to the death, he must be confident in his ability to kill Lu Chen!
"Looks like Lu Chen is done for!"
"Certainly, I see his steps are unsteady and his face lacks color, clearly he is wounded!"
"However, as a prodigy, he must have so tricks up his sleeve. Lu Chen probably has ans to counter-attack, but nonetheless, I also favor Lu Zhan, after all, he's the son of the clan leader!"
"Indeed, I think Lu Zhan will win tragically, and Lu Chen is surely dood!"
Amidst the crowd's discussions, Lu Changkong drew out two pieces of paper from his bosom and handed one to each of them.
They both knew the rules, Lu Chen bit the tip of the paper and signed his na with blood as ink!
Lu Zhan did the sa.
Lu Changkong claid back the Life-and-Death Agreent, descended from the stage, and posted it on a wooden board.Then, he announced loudly, "With thousands as witnesses, life and death without injustice! I declare, the duel to the death begins!"
As his words fell, everyone held their breath and focused their attention on the stage of life and death.
Lu Chen suddenly leaped several steps backward.
Those with discerning eyes imdiately noticed his unsteady steps, confirming he was indeed wounded.
Lu Zhan let out a hearty laugh and drew a long sword from his waist!
Swoosh!
The Sword Qi was sharp and clear, revealing that it was a treasured sword capable of cutting hair with a blow!
"Lu Chen, draw your sword!"
Lu Chen retorted with a cold laugh, "The sword of the Lu Family, the sword technique of Lu Chen, are not worthy of , Lu Chen!"
He slowly opened his clothes and held a fire poker in his hand!
"Hahaha! I almost got fooled by you, I thought you had so divine weapon! If I'm not mistaken, this is a fire poker, right?"
Lu Zhan, seeing the item in Lu Chen's hand, laughed until tears ca out.
He, of course, knew that Lu Chen's Dantian was destroyed, even if had a sword, there would be no vitality to use.
The Lu Family's sword technique also required vitality to command and fully exert its greatest effect!
And he, had already cultivated One-Inch Sword Qi!
"This is a fire poker," Lu Chen said with a faint smile in the face of ridicule, "Of course, it also has another na!"
Lu Zhan was taken aback, "What?"
"Dog-Beating Staff!"
Lu Chen suddenly spat out the three words and imdiately activated his Pupil Skill!
As expected, upon hearing the words "Dog-Beating Staff," Lu Zhan beca furious and lunged forward, sword steps already coming at Lu Chen!
The blade shimred with a faint white light, clearly Sword Qi transford from vitality!
If hit, it would certainly result in broken bones!
Under the Pupil Skill, Lu Chen quickly discerned the target of the sword, aid directly at his thigh.
"You want to tornt
instead of killing ? Too bad you're mistaken!"
A gleam flashed in Lu Chen's eyes; under the Pupil Skill, the power of that sword might have been great, but it was slow as snail!
But Lu Chen had his own plans. If he defeated Lu Zhan too easily, it was likely that the Lu Family would beco suspicious. If that happened, it might not be so easy to leave Yuzhou City later!
With the long-term in mind, an idea struck Lu Chen, and he calculated his next move.
There's an old saying that goes, "Sharpening your weapon right before battle won't keep it sharp, but it's better than nothing!"
However, Lu Chen wasn't planning to sharpen his weapon, instead, he wanted to use this spear technique!
He waited in place, his gaze firmly fixed on his opponent's sword steps.
He knew the sword steps as well, even extrely well!
Although he could no longer use them, he had a thorough understanding of their direction.
"Here it cos!"
Timing it perfectly, Lu Chen propped the fire poker against the ground and took a strong step forward, tripping Lu Zhan in the process!
Lu Zhan's feet tangled, and he tumbled forward, falling face-first into the dirt!
At the sa ti, the treasured sword flew from his hand and clattered onto the stage of life and death!
