Chapter 232 - 232 Breaking the Ancient Era
Gu Zheng raised the stone tablet and caressed it in his hand, not putting Lu Benwei in his eyes at all.
Lin Feng got up from the ground and said angrily, “Put down the stone tablet!”
Gu Zheng ignored him and kept the legacy stone tablet. He turned around and was about to leave. The next second, he was blocked by Lu Benwei.
“Apologize!” Lu Benwei said coldly.
“What did you just say?” Gu Zheng sneered as he perked up his ears.
“You hit someone and took the thing we found first. You want to run away without apologizing?” Chu Yan was extremely angry. With one hand on her waist, she pointed at Gu Zheng with the other and shouted.
Gu Zheng looked at Lu Benwei and laughed. “I was wondering who it was. It’s Lu Benwei from Zhejiang Hunter University.”
The next second, his eyes turned sinister. “You’re just an ant. If you block my way, I’ll just knock you away.”
After saying that, Gu Zheng stretched out his hand and pushed Lu Benwei.
Lu Benwei sneered in his heart. With a shake of his shoulder, an infinite amount of power shot out, causing Gu Zheng to retreat while hugging the stone tablet.
To take revenge, Lin Feng took a step forward and kicked out with force. Gu Zheng staggered a few steps and fell to the ground. The stone tablet in his arms fell to the ground and slid a few meters away.
When Hai Yue and Zhao Xiaoqi saw this, they immediately went forward to put the stone tablet into their bags.
“Whoosh!”
The sound of something breaking through the air could be heard. The targets were Hai Yue and Zhao Xiaoqi. Seeing this, the two girls had no choice but to take a step back.
“Chi…”
The arrow missed its target and forcefully plunged into the ground.
Lu Benwei and the others were shocked as they looked in the direction of the arrow. They saw four people standing at the main entrance, staring at them with cold eyes.
“Captain Gu Zheng, are you alright?” the person in the lead asked.
Gu Zheng got up from the ground and patted the dust off his body. “I’m fine. I just tripped over an ant.”
He turned his cold eyes to Lu Benwei and said, “Kid, let me give you a piece of advice. You’d better get out of here with your tail between your legs. Otherwise, I’ll make you regret participating in the National Class Tournament!”
Lu Benwei’s mouth curved up and he sneered. “Captain Gu Zheng, I’ll give you a word of advice. You’re just an ant. If you’re blocking my way, I’ll just knock you away.”
This was what Gu Zheng had said to Lu Benwei earlier, and now it was returned to him.
“You’re looking for death!” Gu Zheng was furious. He summoned a staff made of iron and attacked Lu Benwei.
Seeing this, his teammates also began to move. Lu Benwei’s team and Gu Zheng’s team started a battle.
Using the formation as a staff, Gu Zheng swung it toward Lu Benwei. Lu Benwei’s face was as calm as usual as he jumped up and easily dodged Gu Zheng’s attack.
Gu Zheng seemed to have anticipated this. He spread his legs and jumped up his fine iron staff. An invisible righteous force attacked Lu Benwei’s lower body.
Lu Benwei’s eyes lit up, and his vigilance told him that he could not block this attack. At this moment, Lu Benwei held the Holy Light Shield to resist this invisible force.
“Boom!”
The deafening sound made Lu Benwei’s body shake, and he flew backward in the air. He finally stopped when he leaned against a horizontal pillar on a beam.
‘No wonder he’s the second best in Chang’an Hunter University. His strength isn’t to be underestimated,’ Lu Benwei thought to himself that he could no longer be careless.
He focused his gaze and waved his arms. The four attributes strengthened his body, and at the same time, he did not forget to enhance Chu Yan and the other three. He looked over. Except for Chu Yan, the other three were all suppressed by him.
It was no wonder that they were the top students of Chang’an Hunter University and were as talented as them. Furthermore, as fourth-year students, their level was higher than Lin Feng, Zhao Xiaoqi, and others.
Lin Feng was forced to retreat by a knight, and in the blink of an eye, he was already forced into a corner. However, at this time, Lu Benwei’s buff arrived, allowing him to burst out with power beyond his level.
For a moment, Lin Feng turned the tables.
On the ground, Gu Zheng laughed maniacally, his face contorted with malevolence. “Lu Benwei, did you see this? This is the difference between you and me. You’re just a first-year student. You’re not worthy of competing with us.”
“You talk too much nonsense!” Lu Benwei frowned.
Gu Zheng laughed sinisterly as he activated his battle magic. The fine iron staff in his hand glowed with a dark light!
“Chi!”
A ray of death shot out and went straight in.
Lu Benwei was not afraid and used Lightning Speed to dodge the attack. His right hand then shook, and the great power of the four great amplification skills surged out like a raging wave.
“Boom!”
The beams of the palace exploded only because of the aftershock of Lu Benwei’s punch.
Gu Zheng was shocked. He did not expect Lu Benwei’s strength to be so terrifying. For a moment, he forgot to respond.
“Boom!”
Lu Benwei’s strike was like a meteor hitting the ground, smashing right into Gu Zheng’s chest.
“Pfft!”
Gu Zheng’s internal organs trembled as his blood and qi flowed backward. His facial features were almost twisted together as he spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying. His team members’ faces were filled with shock as if they had also lost a blow.
Gu Zheng, the number two genius of Chang’an Hunter University, could not even withstand a blow from a magician.
A shooter flew into a rage and leaped over Zhao Xiaoqi into the air.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
Three red arrows were shot at Lu Benwei, shattering space. However, Lu Benwei only shook his arm and shattered the three-feathered crossbow arrow to the ground.
Gu Zheng’s team’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets, thinking that a puny magician could not possibly have such powerful strength.
“Who is it?!” the archer shouted as he thought that there must be a master helping Lu Benwei in the dark, “Hurry up and come out.”
The archers held their crossbows with both hands and fired randomly in the air.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
Countless crossbow arrows were shot, but not only did they not find the expert who was “helping” Lu Benwei in the dark, but they also turned many of his teammates into hedgehogs.
Seeing this, Zhao Xiaoqi hit the shooter with a heavy blow, knocking him out.
With Lu Benwei’s buff, the others also hit their opponents.
“Hmph!”
Lin Feng kicked one of them away and said fiercely, “Why don’t you take a piss and look at yourself when you’re fighting us?”
“Come on, if it wasn’t for Lu Benwei’s buff, I’m afraid you would’ve already been beaten into a meat pie.” Zhao Xiaoqi immediately poured a bucket of cold water on Lin Feng.
Lin Feng’s arrogance was immediately extinguished, and he lowered his head weakly.
“Alright, let’s go read the contents on the stone tablet first.” Lu Benwei waved his hand.
