Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 52 The Sword Intent Belonging to Lu Jun

A clear, resonant sword cry echoed throughout the arena, and a dazzling starlight burst forth from the sword's edge, aimed directly at Lu Jun's throat.

Lu Jun simply turned slightly to the side, effortlessly dodging the sharp sword strike.

"Shh."

The sword's edge grazed the hem of his clothes, but it couldn't even cut a single strand of fabric.

Ye Xinglan's eyes narrowed, and with a flick of her wrist, the sword's momentum suddenly changed direction, slashing horizontally at Lu Jun's waist and abdomen.

Lu Jun did not retaliate, but leaned back slightly, and the sword blade grazed his body again.

"Swish, swish, swish."

Ye Xinglan's sword moved faster and faster, the Star God Sword drawing dazzling trajectories in the air, as if the entire arena was shrouded in starlight.

But Lu Jun was like a snowflake drifting in the wind; no matter how fierce the sword strike was, it could not touch him at all.

In the audience, everyone held their breath.

"Why... does he only dodge and not attack?" someone asked in confusion.

Yu Tianxuan, who had been watching the battle intently from the sidelines, also stood up, his brows furrowed.
"He seems to be observing Ye Xinglan's sword intent. Could it be that he wants to break through in battle?"

Ye Xinglan's attacks failed to break through, and she couldn't even touch a hair on Lu Jun's head. Her anger intensified: "Why are you only dodging?"

"Where's your counterattack?!"

"Or do you mean you look down on me at all?"

Her sword stance suddenly changed, and she thrust fiercely at Lu Jun. The starlight on the Star God Sword suddenly receded, and the sword body became as deep as the night sky. At the same time, the two yellow soul rings shone brightly.

Lu Jun finally stopped, a flash of understanding appearing in his eyes.

Faced with this fierce sword strike, he neither dodged nor avoided it, but suddenly clasped his hands together.

"Snapped."

He held the Star God Sword precisely in his palm.

"What?!" Ye Xinglan's pupils shrank sharply.

Her sword was caught by someone with their bare hands?
But the next second, Ye Xinglan activated his soul power, causing the starlight on the Star God Sword to suddenly burst forth!
"boom!"

The blinding starlight exploded like a blazing sun, and the violent energy instantly engulfed Lu Jun's hands.

A gasp rippled through the audience!
"Lu Jun actually caught the sword with his bare hands?"

"Oh no, his hand is definitely going to get injured. How are we going to fight Shrek Academy now?"

But the next second, a scene that shocked everyone appeared. After the starlight explosion dissipated, Lu Jun's hands were completely unharmed. A layer of crystal-clear ice covered his skin, completely isolating him from the impact of the starlight.

"...My skills are no worse than yours."

As soon as Lu Jun finished speaking, an icy blue sword intent erupted from his body.

Ice-blue sword energy shot into the sky, tearing through the clouds like the aurora borealis, and the temperature at the entire Tianhai competition venue plummeted.

Lu Jun seemed to transform into a peerless divine sword drawn from its sheath, its sharpness fully revealed and its chilling aura palpable.

Ye Xinglan's sword momentum melted away instantly in the face of this sword intent, like ice and snow meeting the sun.

“This is…” She stared wide-eyed at Lu Jun in disbelief.

Breakthrough during battle?

This is just great.

Not only did they witness the opponent's true strength, but they also ended up benefiting the opponent!
At this moment, the proud Ye Xinglan really wanted to find a wall and smash her head against it to die.

She regretted her actions.

Why would anyone be in such a hurry to strengthen the enemy?

Lu Jun reached out and summoned the Ice Abyss Sword.

He slowly raised the Ice Abyss Sword, the chilling aura on its blade solidifying into a tangible form.
"Thank you, I have found my 'meaning'."

"It's not over yet!" Ye Xinglan gritted her teeth and still swung the Star God Sword at Lu Jun.

This time, Lu Jun finally stopped avoiding the attack, and the Ice Abyss Sword and the Star God Sword finally clashed head-on for the first time.

"Qiang."

A crisp sword cry resounded throughout the arena as two distinct sword intents clashed and clashed.

Perhaps it's the quality of their martial spirits that makes the difference so great.

The moment the Star God Sword touched the Ice Abyss Sword, a faint cracking sound rang out, and the starlight on the Star God Sword disintegrated inch by inch.

Ye Xinglan was sent flying, sword and all, crashing heavily to the edge of the arena. He coughed up blood, and the Star God Sword he was holding broke in two.

You must understand, this is her martial soul. This is equivalent to the martial soul shattering, which can cause serious damage to the soul master.

"Sister Xinglan!"

Xu Lizhi was the first to rush onto the stage, his chubby face full of panic.

He frantically pulled out the large meat bun, intending to stuff it into Ye Xinglan's mouth, but she was completely unconscious and unable to swallow.

"Get out of the way!" Yu Tianxuan followed closely behind, shoving Xu Lizhi aside and shouting behind him:
"Healing-type Soul Master, quick!"

The healing-type Soul Master immediately stepped forward, releasing a soft green light from his hands, enveloping Ye Xinglan.

However, her injuries were too severe, and the backlash from the shattered martial soul almost damaged her very essence.

Yu Tianxuan suddenly looked up, his gaze piercing like a knife towards Lu Jun in the center of the arena:

"This is just a competition, why did you use such extreme force?!"

Lu Jun fell silent. He sheathed his sword and stood still, the icy blue sword intent slowly receding.

He forgot.

Previously, Hyotei said that his martial spirit was at the level of a divine artifact.

Even without divine power, its inherent hardness still exists.

With just a light touch, Ye Xinglan's Star God Sword shattered instantly.

Who can he complain to?
That's a classic case of staged accident.

Once the sword was swung, it couldn't be stopped.

It doesn't even qualify as a speed bump.

"Would you believe me if I said it was a mistake?"

Lu Jun said calmly.

He really made a mistake.

It's just a competition; there's no need to injure someone so badly.

Lu Jun paused for a moment, then continued:
"I will take responsibility and provide compensation; this was my fault."

But to the Shrek Academy students, these words were nothing short of a blatant provocation!

"You—!" Yu Tianxuan's fists clenched so tightly they cracked, and his Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul was almost uncontrollably unleashed as he barely suppressed the urge to punch Lu Jun in the face.

Xu Lizhi, his eyes red, roared:

"If anything happens to Sister Xinglan, I'll fight you to the death!"

The referee, realizing what was happening, quickly announced, "Match over! Lu Jun from Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy wins!"

But nobody cares about this result anymore.

Yu Tianxuan suppressed his anger and stared coldly at Lu Jun: "In the upcoming exhibition match, Shrek Academy will definitely make you pay the price for your arrogance."

"If we don't avenge this, we are not worthy of being called Shrek's disciples!"

Lu Jun did not respond, but simply turned and walked off the stage.

have to.

Whatever, he couldn't be bothered to respond.

Let's let our actions speak for themselves in the competition.

So that people won't say he's showing off again.

Anyway, with Shrek Academy members around, Ye Xinglan wouldn't be in any danger, especially since he had only used a light blow, not his full strength.

It will recover after a period of rest.

It's really speechless. He clearly took the initiative to challenge and spar, but he got injured and then blamed me.

This reminded Lu Jun of Tang San.

As soon as Xiao Wu was injured, Tang San's eyes turned red, and he began to pant heavily, ready to fight his opponent with all his might.

Scary.

The Shrek Seven Devils behind Lu Jun were experiencing an unprecedented surge in fighting spirit, their gazes practically burning with desire as if they wanted to tear Lu Jun's flesh off his body.

Back in the preparation area, Long Chen, pale-faced, approached and said, "Brother Lu, this is a huge problem. Look at the way those Shrek guys are looking at us; they really want to kill us."

Zhao Tianyu slammed his hand on the table and stood up, his face grim:

“Those lunatics from Shrek Academy will definitely retaliate during the exhibition match, and they might even do so afterward off the stage. Lu Jun, you mustn’t act alone from now on, or they might find an opportunity to take advantage of you.”

"It's alright, I have my aunt and teacher to protect me."

Lu Jun shook his head.

Zhao Tianyu frowned and paced back and forth anxiously: "The Shrek group has always been protective of their own, and Ye Xinglan is a genius they are focusing on cultivating. This matter will definitely not be left like this."

Su Yu crossed her arms and snorted coldly:
"It was Ye Xinglan who insisted on challenging us. She's only at the second ring and she's already acting so arrogant. She's not as skilled as us, yet she blames us?"

“That’s true,” Xu Ming pushed up his glasses, “but Shrek Academy has never been reasonable.”

"And they're really neurotic. They always lose control during matches. Injuries are hard to avoid in sparring matches, so the blame should fall on the referee," Xu Ming said in a deep voice. "The referee's judgment was poor. He didn't stop the attack in time, causing serious injury to the opponent. Besides, anyone with eyes could see that you had already stopped."

"Those Shrek students actually seem to want to eat you alive. I've seen them beat others pretty hard, but why don't they ever think about revenge when someone gets hurt? Is that all they think? They're blaming you instead of the referee?"
