Chapter 3235: Rubbing on the Ground
Shen Wanjun's face flushed and he had difficulty breathing. With his cultivation level of a mid-stage three-star Taoist master, he was powerless in front of Lu Yun.
Only then did he realize that either Lu Yun's strength had improved by leaps and bounds in the past six months, or Lu Yun had not used his full strength during the last fight.
Lu Yun threw Shen Wanjun back onto the stool like throwing away garbage. This scene stunned everyone in the wine shop.
They didn't expect that the once-invincible First Prince of Wanxiang Mansion could be so easily manipulated by Lu Yun.
"Lu Yun! He is Lu Yun! The Lu Yun from the Sword Mansion!" Someone shouted, and the winery suddenly exploded.
The news that Lu Yun came to challenge spread quickly throughout the Wanxiang Palace as if it had wings.
Hundreds of people soon gathered outside Wanxiang Mansion's trial site, Wanxiang Tower, and the number was still increasing.
Ever since Shen Wanjun was defeated by Lu Yun, the Taoist gods in Wanxiang Mansion have generally lost confidence.
"What are you afraid of! Lu Yun has taken advantage of home court by passing the test in Jian Mansion! In our Wanxiang Mansion, it is still uncertain who will win!" A five-star Taoist master stepped forward and shouted loudly to boost morale.
A burly man with a face full of flesh came out from the crowd. His name was Xiong Hen, and he was the second son of the Wanxiang Palace. He had always been dissatisfied with Shen Wanjun occupying the position of the first son of the emperor.
"Shen Wanjun is no longer worthy of being our first prince! I will be the one guarding the tower this time!" Xiong Hen's voice was like a huge bell, resounding throughout the square.
Xiong Hen's words resonated with the other princes. "That's right! We can't let Shen Wanjun lose face for our Wanxiang Mansion! Even if we lose, we have to see what Lu Yun is capable of!"
For a moment, the crowd was excited. The Taoist gods of Wanxiang Mansion surrounded several princes who volunteered to fight, and walked towards Wanxiang Tower in a mighty manner.
In front of the Wanxiang Tower, the deputy master of Wanxiang Mansion and a group of high-ranking Taoist masters had been waiting for a long time.
Several princes who volunteered to fight stepped forward and expressed their determination passionately, vowing to defend the honor of Wanxiang Prefecture.
However, the deputy palace master looked embarrassed and had a complicated expression. "Everyone... Actually, just now... Lu Yun has... broken the record of Wanxiang Building..."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell silent. All the emperor's sons and all the Taoist gods stood there in a daze, as if struck by lightning, unable to recover for a long time.
They couldn't believe that Lu Yun was so powerful that he had broken the record of Wanxiang Tower without them even noticing.
Xiong Hen's eyes widened in disbelief. "How...how is this possible? When did he..."
Xiong Hen took a step forward and slapped the stone pillar beside him with his palm as big as a palm fan, and the stone pillar cracked.
"Bullshit! Even if he took off his pants and ran in within a cup of tea, he couldn't break the record! Lord Tianyun, are you getting old and confused? You don't even know you've been fooled?"
The other princes also echoed.
"That's right! The test in Wanxiang Tower is so complicated, involving nine kinds of heavenly powers: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light and darkness. Even if Lu Yun is a swordsman, no matter how strong he is, it is impossible for him to break the record in such a short time!"
"Master Tianyun, if you don't give us a reasonable explanation today, where will the face of our Wanxiang Mansion be?" A pointed-faced prince said sarcastically.
The face of the Tianyun Palace Master was ashen. He thought this was a joke, but the record crystal in the Wanxiang Building clearly showed Lu Yun's name and the shocking record-breaking time.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. "How could I joke about such a thing? The recording crystal is inside the building. If you don't believe it, you can go in and check it yourself!"
At the same time, the people in the Sword Mansion were also in an uproar. Although they were full of confidence in Lu Yun, they did not expect that he would break the record of the Wanxiang Building so quickly. In just a cup of tea, this was too exaggerated, right?
"Oh my goodness! How did Senior Brother Lu do this? Did he tear down the Wanxiang Building?" A young disciple opened his mouth wide, his face full of disbelief.
"Tear it down? What are you thinking about? The Wanxiang Building is made of ten thousand year old black iron. Even if Senior Brother Lu is so strong, he can't tear it down!" another disciple retorted.
"Then how did he do it? Isn't it too fast?"
"This is probably the power of the Great Unified Sword Art! It seems that Senior Brother Lu is determined to win the challenge against other palaces!" An older disciple said with emotion.
"Hehe, when Senior Brother Lu takes down the trial sites in other palaces, won't we be able to go in and practice? I'm excited just thinking about it!"
"Yes! By then our strength will surely improve by leaps and bounds! Maybe I can even challenge the Wanxiang Building!"
At this moment, the door of Wanxiang Building slowly opened, and a figure walked out. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Lu Yun with a calm expression, as if he had just done something insignificant.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Yun, some were shocked, some were confused, some were jealous, and some were in admiration. Lu Yun's appearance was undoubtedly the center of this storm.
He walked slowly to the front of the Lord of Tianyun Mansion and asked calmly, "Lord of Tianyun Mansion, according to the challenge rules, can the people I bring with me obtain the challenge qualification and corresponding rewards for the Wanxiang Mansion Trial Ground?"
The Tianyun Palace Master looked unhappy, but he still nodded and admitted, "Yes, that's the rule."
Lu Yun's mouth curled up slightly, "Well, these Taoist gods I brought here want to challenge them now, is that possible?"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Everyone in Wanxiang Mansion was stunned. Wasn't Lu Yun too arrogant? Not only did he break the record, but he also wanted the people from Jian Mansion to challenge Wanxiang Mansion? He was trying to embarrass Wanxiang Mansion!
Although Lord Tianyun was surprised, the rules of the challenge were indeed like that and he could not refuse.
I could only nod my head in agreement helplessly, "Okay, but they must follow the rules and challenge them one by one."
"Of course." Lu Yun turned around and said to the people in the Sword Mansion behind him, "Dear fellow disciples, did you hear that? Don't let the people in the Wanxiang Mansion look down on our Sword Mansion!"
"Hahaha! Don't worry, Senior Brother Lu, we will definitely let them see how powerful our Sword Mansion is!" Everyone in the Sword Mansion responded with laughter, their fighting spirit high.
Afterwards, the Taoist gods of the Sword Palace entered the Wanxiang Building in an orderly manner and began their challenge.
The Lord of Tianyun Palace looked at Lu Yun and said with a fake smile: "Lu Yun, your Sword Palace is really lucky this time. You have such a precious treasure."
Lu Yun smiled faintly and said, "Palace Master, you are too kind. Lu Yun has benefited a lot from joining the Sword Palace. I am grateful to the Ancient God Emperor and the Sword Palace for providing resources, which has enabled me to make some progress."
