Chapter 10: Three Years of War Again

  Like a bullet, the black-clothed man suddenly accelerated and charged towards Lei Yu, his sharp fingernails gleaming with cold light. Lei Yu raised his hand to block the attack, and the two of them seemed to be drifting with the wind, from east to west, from south to north. This collision was almost unimaginable, each impact bringing a strong gust of wind. Zhao Han, who was watching from the side, felt a lingering fear in his heart, "Fortunately, this kid didn't take me seriously at noon, otherwise I would have been in big trouble. Who is he? Why is he so powerful?"

  At the same time, the pair of eyes in the bushes also showed a look of surprise, but it was not discovered by anyone.

  The two men's fight lasted for over a minute, after the black-clad man's left hand attack was repelled by Lei Yu's swift turn, the black-clad man found an opening and five cold glints flashed, Lei Yu's back was scratched open by the black-clad man's right hand, instantly, blood flowed freely, Lei Yu furrowed his brow, the sweat beads on his forehead had already dripped down, he was slightly panting heavily.

  "Must I use the power of thunder?" Lei Yu thought to himself, "No choice, the opponent is too powerful!"

  With a gritted teeth, Lei Yu took the lead in attacking, his hands shaped like knives slashing down at the black-clothed man. The black-clothed man raised his hands and violently pulled downwards on Lei Yu's arms, tearing off his sleeves. Five bloody gashes appeared simultaneously on both of Lei Yu's arms. Gnashing his teeth to endure the pain, his hands didn't stop, landing on the black-clothed man's shoulders with a numbing and powerful force. The black-clothed man's body shook violently, the look of surprise in his eyes was unmistakable, more importantly, he saw the mark on Lei Yu's right arm.

  The man in black quickly retreated several steps and said: "You are very strong, and your endurance is not bad. If we continue to fight like this, both of us may suffer serious injuries!"

  "What do you want?" Lei Yu asked, panting slightly.

  "Tell me your name." The black-clothed man was most concerned about the numbness he had just felt and the lightning mark on Lei Yu's arm. He knew that if he observed carefully, he could still see the black-clothed man's arm trembling constantly. In fact, he had already lost his combat strength, and under the condition of numb arms, he couldn't continue to attack. If Lei Yu rushed forward at this time, he would definitely have no ability to counterattack.

  "Lei Yu!"

  "Is it the Lei family?" The man in black slightly opened his eyes.

  "No! I am not a member of the Lei family!" Lei Yu's voice was somewhat agitated, he wanted to rush up and give his opponent a few slaps, but the true energy consumed in his body was indeed not small, now he didn't have the strength to fight again, fortunately, the opponent also declared a ceasefire.

  "My name is Cai Zhong, and I am the master of the Northern Branch of the Ming Cult."

  "What's the big deal about Mingjiao!"

  "In three years, in three years' time, on today's date and at today's hour, shall we have another match? How about it?" the man in black asked.

  It's rare to meet an opponent, and as the leader of the Ming Cult, Cai Zhong was naturally excited. Moreover, his opponent was much younger than himself, yet possessed such skill and strength, which ignited Cai's competitive spirit and refusal to yield.

  Lei Yu's thoughts were the same as his opponent's, for someone stronger than himself would naturally want to catch up and surpass him. Today, he was clearly at a disadvantage, and if it weren't for the power of lightning, he might be the one severely injured right now. Lei Yu decided that from now on, he would work even harder to cultivate his abilities, but cultivation required a strong opponent to test his skills, and the person in front of him was clearly the best choice.

  "I accept your appointment! However..."

  "I know what you're worried about, don't worry, this Zhao Han is my cousin, from today on, he won't bother you and your girlfriend again."

  "Hmm..." Lei Yu thought of explaining, but then thought it wasn't necessary and just nodded.

  "Alright, it's settled then!" Dragging a still shocked Zhao Han along, the two quickly left Lei Yu's line of sight.

  Two people left, Lei Yu fell to the ground, his true energy was consumed too much. The previous fight had already consumed a part of it, and the last blow had condensed all the true energy, which made Lei Yu feel a bit dizzy. Even if he had used all his strength in that one blow, the opponent could still leave with swift steps. In his heart, Lei Yu was secretly encouraging himself to work hard and become stronger. Three years, three years passed by in a flash, he must seize every day's time. However, thinking again, half a month later there would be an opportunity to enter the Dragon Team, and the Dragon Team consisted of some high-level cultivators who were skilled in their techniques. Their daily training and sparring would naturally be faster than solo cultivation. Thinking of this, Lei Yu felt his blood boiling with excitement.

  At this moment, a person suddenly rushed out of the bushes, and Lei Yu was frightened and hastily retreated, raising his hand to prepare for an attack.

  "With a 'whoosh', the person who rushed out actually knelt down in front of Lei Yu and shouted loudly: "Master! Take me as your apprentice! You're really too handsome! Ah, that cool and handsome palm of yours when it landed on him was so awesome!"

  Lei Yu blinked her eyes and stared at the person in front of her, "Do you want to scare me to death?"

  "Excuse me, Master. Are you willing to accept an apprentice? I'm willing to go through thick and thin to serve you! I hope you won't decline this sincere disciple!"

  "Stop joking!" Lei Yu supported his body and stood up, "I never thought of taking an apprentice, oh right, today's matter is best not to be mentioned."

  "As long as you promise me, I definitely won't tell anyone!"

  "I've already said I don't take apprentices."

  This man stared at Lei Yu with pleading eyes, his face twisted in a sorrowful expression. "If you don't agree to my request, I'll kneel here until I die!"

  "You'd better pull up your pants first! Otherwise others will think..." Lei Yu was somewhat weak, his body swaying slightly.

  "Ah!" The student looked down and said, "I was just having a bowel movement. Since students aren't allowed to smoke, I snuck in here for a quick puff. Watching your amazing fight, I forgot to pull up my pants! Oh no, I also forgot to wipe my butt!"

  "......!" Lei Yu couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. He didn't have the energy to laugh, but he couldn't help but be amused by the student in front of him.

  "Lend me a hand, give me a boost."

  "No problem!"

  "Are you still a student?"

  "This is the school's first grade."

  "What's your name?"

  "Hao Liu!"

  "Oh."

  As they walked to the school gate, a car sped over and three people got out. One was Lei Yu's familiar friend No Hu, another was Aier, and the third one was also someone Lei Yu had seen before, No Hu's bodyguard A Bao.

  "What's going on? Why didn't you tell me anything!" Nu Hu exclaimed, seeing the scar on Lei Yu's arm.

  "It's okay, it doesn't matter anymore."

  "Little Yu brother, you're hurt, quick, go to the hospital!" Ai Er pulled Lei Yu and Liu Hao on either side supported him into the car.

  "This brother, who are you..." Nuo Hu sat in the passenger seat and asked Liu Hao behind him.

  "My name is Liu Hao, and I'm a first-year student...I'm an apprentice of the master." Liu Hao didn't know what Lei Yu's name was, so he could only say that.

  "Huh?"
