Chapter 143 Three Strikes Against Fang Ziyan
Just as Tang Siyu finished speaking, the situation in the arena took a turn. Fang Ziyan, who had been able to hold his ground against Chu Yunfan, was at a disadvantage.
"D*mn it! How is he so strong?!" Fang Ziyan roared angrily.
He had not thought much of Chu Yunfan. After all, he was ranked in the top 20 of his school. In an ordinary high school like No. 13 High, only Ou Yang and Zhang Teng—the first and second rank of this school—were worthy of his attention. If it were an ordinary person, he had no intention of even looking at them. Who knew that this guy who suddenly appeared out of nowhere would be so troublesome? He could suppress Fang Ziyan with just one hand. "Who the hell are you?!" Fang Ziyan roared furiously.
At this moment, there were countless chips in his saber. It had been scrapped badly. Ang Ziyan was not in the mood to care about the loss of his saber. In any case, it was already damaged.
At this moment, he was completely focused on Chu Yunfan. Only one thought went through his mind, 'I must kill him! Kill him! Kill him!'
It was as if a devil had possessed him and was bewitching him to kill the person in front of him. However, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to break through Chu Yunfan's defenses. With his saber, Chu Yunfan was able to block all of Fang Ziyan's attacks. Every time they collided, Fang Ziyan's arm would go a little more numb.
Soon enough, Fang Ziyan's palms started to go numb. It had split open, but he barely noticed the blood from his wound flying everywhere. At the edge of the ring, the youth looked at Chu Yunfan in shock as if he could not believe his eyes. He was very familiar with Fang Ziyan's level of strength. To be able to be within the top 20 of Yucai High meant that Fang Ziyan was indeed strong. Even he would have some difficulty against such an opponent. But Chu Yunfan was easily beating back Fang Ziyan.
"Just who is this person? How could he be so strong?" The youth muttered to himself.
He knew what Zhang Teng and Ou Yang looked like. After all, they were all the top students from different schools, so it was inevitable that they would have some interactions. He was certain that Chu Yunfan was not one of them. How did these two experts suddenly appear in No. 13 High? Other than Chu Yunfan, the strength of the girl who threw the sword just now was also not to be underestimated. The speed requirement her sword would have had to possess to save Gao Hongzhi at such a critical moment was immensely high, and the strength it had to carry was also extremely great. Only then could she have possibly saved Gao Hongzhi.

The youth was unfamiliar with these two people. They must have just risen to prominence. Otherwise, he would have gotten wind of such news.
At this moment, Chu Yunfan finally spoke. He said, "Fang Ziyan, you're taking advantage of your strength to bully others. You are taking advantage of your cultivation level and have come to No. 13 High to bully us. Today, I'll teach you a lesson. I'll let you know that there's always someone better than you. First, I'll destroy your saber. This can be considered a lesson for you!"
"What?! You destroyed my weapon on purpose?! D*mn it!" Fang Ziyan was furious when he heard those words. He understood Chu Yunfan had planned everything from the beginning. It was all on purpose.
Fang Ziyan thought that his saber was being damaged because of the intense battle. But now, he realized that Chu Yunfan was doing it on purpose.
"Of course, it was on purpose. Otherwise, I would have already defeated someone like you in three moves!" Chu Yunfan proclaimed.
"Defeat me in three moves? Who do you think you are? Dong Fanghao?" Fang Ziyan was furious. He felt as if his dignity had been trampled on by Chu Yunfan.
"I don't need to be Dong Fanghao. Three moves are more than enough for me to beat
you!"
As Chu Yunfan said this, he attacked once again. His speed increased again.
'He's so fast!' Fang Ziyan felt his vision blur and Chu Yunfan's blade was already right in front of his face. He instinctively raised his saber to block the incoming strike. Then, he felt a terrifying strange force travel up his arm. Slash!
His entire palm was torn open, and fresh blood spurted out.
Fang Ziyan took a few steps back before he managed to stabilize himself.
"Second move!"
Chu Yunfan's ice-cold voice sounded like an evil spirit from hell.
A flash of light cut through the air!
Fast!
Fast!
Fast!
It was so fast that everyone could only see a blur before Chu Yunfan's saber slashed down on Fang Ziyan once again. Fang Ziyan barely managed to raise his saber to block the attack, but how could he block it this time? His arm was already numb, and he could not control his saber at all. He could barely hold on to the hilt of his saber.
Clang!
The saber in Fang Ziyan's hand flew away and landed on the floor of the arena with a clang.
"Third move!"
Chu Yunfan's next attack came down even faster. Even Fang Ziyan was in despair. He closed his eyes. For the first time, he knew what Gao Hongzhi had felt earlier. He also understood what those people who had been defeated by him had thought.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a loud shout was heard. Then, a flash of light tore through the air and an attack came straight at Chu Yunfan.
Chu Yunfan's saber slashed down on Fang Ziyan's body.
Slice!
Fang Ziyan screamed and dropped to the ground. Blood flowed down his shoulder. A huge wound similar to the one on Gao Hongzhi's shoulder had appeared. The intense pain caused Fang Ziyan to roll around and scream in pain.
After doing all of this, Chu Yunfan still had time to raise the saber in his hand to block the incoming sword. Clang! The saber and sword clashed, and the figure that had suddenly attacked was blocked from his sight. Meanwhile, Chu Yunfan's body swayed slightly for a moment before he completely stabilized himself. He raised his head to look at his attacker. It was the youth that had been standing in a corner of the ring. At the crucial moment, the youth made his move. He tried to get Chu Yunfan to focus on him and save Fang Ziyan, but unfortunately, he failed.
"You didn't have to make a move. I wouldn't have killed him. There's no need for that," Chu Yunfan said matter of factly.
The blood on the edge of his saber quickly slid off, leaving the blade as clean as before. Then, Chu Yunfan inserted it back into the scabbard. This was a form of modern high-tech. These high-tech weapons accumulated no dirt or dust. Even if the weapons were stained with blood, they would quickly flow away and not be stained in the slightest.
The youth had an ugly expression. He had made a move, but he had failed. And Chu Yunfan had no intention of killing Fang Ziyan in the first place. In other words, he had achieved nothing. When he saw the wound on Fang Ziyan, how could he not understand that the other party had no intention of killing him? Instead, he was taking revenge for that fatty.
Same wound. Same position.
At this moment, the youth's eyes fixed on Chu Yunfan. He cupped his hands and said, "I admit this loss. I'm Lu Xiuran. May I know your name?" "Chu Yunfan."
his face turned beet red. When he saw Chu Yunfan's disdainful gaze, he felt as if his intelligence was being belittled.
"Besides, what kind of gentleman are you? Don't you think it's funny to bring such a thing up with me?" Chu Yunfan said with a sneer.
"Good, good, good. Your tongue is sharp, Chu Yunfan. Do you dare to fight me?" Lu Xiuran completely abandoned his gentle and restrained expression, revealing his original unruly and wild face.
Since he could not win against Chu Yunfan in words and was not in the right, there was only one other way-beat the other party until they were convinced. It was the fastest way. "Why wouldn't I?" Chu Yunfan said nonchalantly.
However, at this moment, some loud voices came from the side. Qin Wu, Jin Feng, and a middle-aged man whom they did not know walked over in big strides. This middle-aged man was lanky and wore a pair of glasses. He looked like a pedant. And from the way he walked silently, one could tell that he had a great cultivation base. When he saw Fang Ziyan lying in a pool of blood, he could not help but immediately turn around and say to Qin Wu and Jin Feng. "What's going on? Why are my students injured?"
Jin Feng and Qin Wu were also stunned. They did not know what was going on.
"Who…who injured him?!" The middle-aged man roared. His gaze swept across the sea of students like a tiger before finally landing on Chu Yunfan.
"Was it you?"
Chu Yunfan nodded and said, "It was me. When it comes to sparring, my hands and feet don't discriminate. There was nothing I could have done."
"What?!"
The middle-aged man widened his eyes in anger. Just as he was about to disregard his status and attack, Qin Wu suddenly blocked his path. With a cold expression, Qin Wu said, "Mr. Li, it's just a sparring session between students. It's inevitable that there'll be some injuries. You're a teacher. Don't tell me that you wish to attack a student?" "Sparring? Mr. Qin, you're downplaying the situation. Does this look like a sparring session? If it were any heavier, my student's entire arm would have been cut off. I'll make sure that your student is held accountable for this!" The middle-aged man said unwaveringly.
treatment. It just so happens that a staff member from our infirmary is here," Jin Feng said.
Despite the glare that Mr. Li was giving Chu Yunfan, he could only agree. This matter could not be blown up. Otherwise, they would undoubtedly expose that they had instructed their students to provoke No. 13 High. If that happened, it would ruin Yucai High's image. "Chu Yunfan, right? In a month, we'll have the chance to fight at the school exchange meet!" Lu Xiuran said to Chu Yunfan as he walked past. He then took Fang Ziyan to be treated.
"All right. The few of you should hurry to the principal's office. The principal has something to talk to you about," Qin Wu said to Chu Yunfan and his friends..Chu Yunfan and Tang Siyu hurriedly walked toward the principal's office. As for Gao Hongzhi, he had to first go get treated. When Chu Yunfan and Tang Siyu arrived at the office, they discovered that the other top 20 students of this year's school ranking battle were already present. Other than Gao Hongzhi and the student who was 20th from Class 1, everyone else had already arrived. It was obvious that they were the last few to arrive and had been delayed by matters outside.
When the principal, Hua Chengtian, saw that the two of them arrived, he nodded and said, "Seems like there's still two more who aren't here yet."
"Principal, earlier…" Chu Yunfan raised his hand and told them what had happened.

The other top 20 students revealed indignant expressions. They were all outstanding students of No. 13 High, and Fang Ziyan's actions were simply a slap across their faces However, when they heard that Chu Yunfan had defeated Fang Ziyan and wounded him, they revealed a look that said that he deserved it. Since they had come to cause trouble, they should be prepared to be beaten up.
The group of students felt that they had to look at Chu Yunfan in a new light. Fang Ziyan was an elite student of Yucai High, and he was no match for Chu Yunfan.
"Yes, I know about the matter. You did well and protected the honor of our school," Hua Chengtian praised, "Since two of our classmates are injured, let's forget them. I'll get your homeroom teachers to fill them in later. Now, let's get down to business."
Everyone quieted down and looked toward Hua Chengtian.
"The teacher and students of Yucai High that Chu Yunfan mentioned are here to deliver us an invitation. This invitation is for everyone here," Hua Chengtian said, "Every high school in the Yunning District is invited to a school exchange meet every year. The ones who will be participating in this event are all of you. Only the top 20 students of each school are qualified to participate in this meet. Our school has specially selected our top 20 students for this meeting!"
Among the crowd, some had just learned of this matter. At this moment, they had a look of realization on their faces. So this was the reason.
"The meet will be held in a month at the start of the new semester. You have a month to prepare. I hope that everyone will be able to bring honor to the school at the school exchange meet. At the same time, you'll bring honor to yourselves," Hua Chengtian said, "The school will award 200,000 yuan to those who participate in this meet!"
himself as a heaven-gifted genius. In their school, only Ou Yang was able to compete with him. Now he was being told that he was just So-so.
This was a huge blow to his self-esteem.
He looked at Ou Yang. For a long time, he had felt that Ou Yang did not take him seriously. Ou Yang had barely noticed him. Now that he thought about it, Ou Yang's gaze was surely on the genius students of the city.
"Everyone, don't be nervous. The people of Yucai High are not three-headed and six-armed. What's there to be afraid of? Moreover, their 20th was easily defeated by Chu Yunfan. As long as everyone trains hard, we'll have the chance to catch up to them!" Ou Yang said.
"That's right. They're all carrying two shoulders and one head. What's there to be afraid of!" a student chimed in.
Moreover, the target of these students from the focus schools is definitely the top ten schools. They may even be aiming for Federation University. We'll not conflict with them!"
"Yucai High's targets are the No. 5 and No.7 High. We're not going to win the championship, so it doesn't have much to do with us, right?"
ve
Many students said in a flurry of voices.
The more Ou Yang Yue looked, the tighter his brows knitted. Many of them were already afraid. After all, Yucai High's strength was too far away from theirs.
"Not going to win the championship? If we don't try to win the championship, then there's no meaning!" Chu Yunfan said as he stepped forward. "Why should the championship only be held by No. 5, No. 7, or Yucai? Are you all ready to be at the bottom? I'm not!"
After saying that, Chu Yunfan turned around and left the crowd. Tang Siyu followed him. Before she left, she said, "Since you're already here, might as well do it well. What's the point of backing down now?"
Many students looked at each other. They wanted to laugh at the other party's overestimation, but the other party was the champion, Chu Yunfan. How could they even laugh at Tang Siyu, who was in third place? Many people had the same thought. If it was Chu Yunfan, he might be able to do it.
Over the past few months, Chu Yunfan had performed one miracle after another, and everyone had unknowingly gained confidence in him. As for Tang Siyu, was she not also a dark horse that had fought her way up?
Although she could not compare to Chu Yunfan, she was only second to him.
"Chu Yunfan is right. They aren't that big of a deal. It's just a battle!" Ou Yang glanced at the crowd and swiftly left. Everyone looked at each other.
At this moment, Zhang Teng stepped forward. Although he was not favorable to Chu Yunfan, Tang Siyu, or Ou Yang, he felt that they were right.
"Aren't you ashamed of yourselves? You gave up before the battle even started. Is it possible for you to win against them with such a mentality?" Zhang Teng said, "They were impudent in our school today. They're slapping us in the face? Doesn't your face hurt? Mine does. I must get back at them!"
With that, Zhang Teng strode away.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say. However, they could feel their fighting spirit rising.
Chu Yunfan, who had already walked out of the teaching building, stopped. He looked at Tang Siyu and asked, "Do you have any plans for winter break?"
"I'm going to hunt monsters. Actual combat is the fastest way to improve," Tang Siyu said indifferently. It was hard to imagine why a girl like her would have such a strong fighting spirit.
