My Apprentice Is Too Diligent

Chapter 10: Three Punches!

Chen Wuji calmly interrupted.

"Some words are not pleasant to hear, and some money is hot to handle."

"No matter how much gold, silver, and jewelry one has, when a person dies, they can't enjoy any of it."

Chen Wuji spoke calmly.

"Hmm?"

Robutu frowned, "What do you mean, Master Chen? I just wanted to experience the power of the Earth Dragon Fist at the Body Refining Seventh Layer. Why are we talking about gold, silver, and jewelry?"

"Or perhaps, Master Chen is afraid?"

Robutu sneered, "Master Chen thinks his strength is not enough, so he dares not accept the challenge?"

"I can understand that. After finally making a breakthrough, it's natural to hide and wait..."

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Chen Yifan couldn't hold back his anger any longer. "When did my master hide? You know that my master just broke through to the Seventh Layer, and yet you, who knows how many years it's been since your breakthrough, still come to challenge him. Your audacity is thicker than the city walls!"

"That's right, the Tyrant Spear? Does a despicable and vile person like you deserve to be called the 'Tyrant Spear'?" Han Ying chimed in.

"You can't say that."

A man in a robe walked out from the crowd, his hands crossed in front of his chest, smiling. "The title of 'Tyrant Spear' was earned by Robutu himself through his own strength. For decades, only those who have defeated Robutu have the right to comment on it..."

"Haha, so I can't say anything?"

Han Ying mocked, "Only those who have defeated him have the qualification to comment? According to your logic, the title of 'Tyrant Spear' was created by Robutu, and only he is worthy of it throughout history? How come I remember that there is also a 'Tyrant God Spear' in Huaiyang Prefecture? Did Robutu allow the use of this title before it was known to the world?"

"You little girl, what nonsense are you talking?" Robutu's face immediately turned dark.

The man in the robe also looked displeased, "Is Master Chen using a clever little girl to protect his reputation?"

"And who are you?" Chen Wuji glanced at him, "Or do you also want to challenge me?"

"I..."

"Forget it." Chen Wuji raised his hand to interrupt, "No matter who you are, just stand aside for now."

Saying that, he ignored the man in the robe and walked down the steps, his gaze returning to Robutu. He said calmly, "Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish."

"Good!"

A cold light flashed in Robutu's eyes, "Master Chen is straightforward. I have always believed that only challenges that involve life and death are true challenges."

"So, Master Chen, get ready!"

Whoosh~

With a shake of his spear, the air vibrated, making a sound.

A gust of wind accompanied by Qi burst open in an instant. Amidst the piercing and chilling howl, the spear, shining with a cold and fierce aura, flew straight towards Chen Wuji.

Dominant and intense, with a terrifying momentum that shook people's hearts, it was released with a loud boom along with the gust of wind.

The onlookers who were closer felt a heavy pressure on their chests, their hearts pounding like drums. They instinctively felt fear and subconsciously retreated.

When they stopped, panic and horror set in, unable to muster any will, their spirits in a daze.

But Chen Wuji felt nothing.

At the first moment Robutu attacked, Chen Wuji moved as well.

He instantly unleashed the Winding Snake Steps at the Perfect Level.

Swiftly shifting his body, he moved like a living snake, swiftly swimming.

Not only did he dodge the spear's edge, but he also circled behind Robutu.

And as he reached behind Robutu, he threw a punch!

The punch carried seventy percent of its force, breaking through the Qi surrounding Robutu's body, producing a cracking sound.

Robutu reacted quickly as well.

With a shake of the spear's handle, he turned sideways and spun, the spear rotating in his hand, smashing down from the air.

"Boom~!"

A loud explosion erupted on the spot.

Without pausing for a moment, Chen Wuji swiftly threw a second lightning-fast punch, shattering the Qi surrounding Robutu's body once again, while the wind from the punch messed up Robutu's hair.

The falling spear had to change its direction halfway to block in front of Robutu's side face.

Then, accompanied by a loud bang, it was forcefully knocked out of Robutu's hand.

Amidst the raging Qi, Robutu was sent flying in mid-air.

But before he could land, Chen Wuji's third punch had already caught up.

"No!"

A terrified scream had just begun.

A dragon-like roar suddenly spread, overwhelming everything.

In mid-air, Luo Butu felt a blur before losing consciousness.

"Bang!"

Red and white splattered all over the ground.

Luo Butu's headless body, carried by inertia, flew out three or four zhang before crashing to the ground. It rolled twice and lost its breath.

In front of the Chen Family courtyard, the empty space fell into silence for a moment.

He's dead...

The "Tyrant Spear" Luo Butu, died just like that!

In the blink of an eye, he lost his head and lay on the ground, lifeless.

Silence.

The man in the long robe was dumbfounded.

The onlookers were stunned.

Chen Yifan, Chen Qingning, Han Ying, and others on the steps were also dumbfounded.

Only Xiong Zengtong on the high platform had his pupils constricting, revealing astonishment.

"Perfect level footwork! Perfect level boxing!"

Chen Wuji broke through the Body Refining Seventh Layer, and also mastered the two martial arts he had cultivated to a perfect level.

What a terrifying strength this was.

Others only felt that when Luo Butu attacked with his spear, Chen Wuji counterattacked with his fists, and within three breaths, the outcome was decided.

But in Xiong Zengtong's eyes, the previous clash was a complete and overwhelming slaughter.

Chen Wuji easily killed Luo Butu!

That's right.

Luo Butu's spear technique had also reached the state of perfection, refining his own spear style.

If it were someone else who had just broken through to the Body Refining Seventh Layer, facing Luo Butu's spear style, they would be intimidated and lose the initiative in the first place.

However, this ability did not exist in Chen Wuji's eyes.

Because Chen Wuji had condensed his own boxing intent!

With his own boxing intent, he easily crushed Luo Butu's spear style.

Coupled with his perfect level footwork, Luo Butu had little chance to react.

Unfortunately, Luo Butu's lightness technique leaned towards sprinting or explosive movements, lacking flexibility.

He only had a reaction in the first moment, but couldn't keep up afterwards.

When experts fight, a breath or half a breath is the key to determining victory or defeat.

Luo Butu couldn't keep up with this, so naturally, there was no result.

He was killed by Chen Wuji with a single punch to the head!

Because of this, from the beginning of the challenge to Luo Butu's defeat and death, Chen Wuji only threw three punches!

Within three breaths, he killed an old veteran of the Body Refining Seventh Layer.

And it was Luo Butu, who had reached the perfect level of Blood Transformation with the "Tyrant Spear"!

...

"Whoosh~"

After a brief silence.

The scene exploded.

"He's dead, Luo Butu is actually dead!"

"I saw it, Master Chen is amazing, he killed Luo Butu of the same realm with just three punches, it's incredible!"

"I have to say, Luo Butu died because he underestimated his opponent."

"That's true, but losing is losing, and dying is dying!"

"..."

The onlookers were engaged in intense discussions, inexplicably excited.

On the high platform, Xiong Zengtong shouted coldly.

"It can be confirmed now, Second Brother is missing, it's ninety-nine percent Chen Wuji's doing!"
