Everyone stared dumbfoundedly at the battlefield. There was a difference in age and stature between Zhang Xuan and the scholarly disciple. When the two fought, nine out of ten people here would think that Zhang Xuan was at a disadvantage, but the result was completely unexpected.
" Well done, Zhang Xuan. Well done! Teach this guy a good lesson!" Hong Lian was the first to regain her senses. Her large watery eyes were filled with a strange light as she shouted happily, as if she had won.
" Brat, what kind of demonic technique did you use?" The scholarly disciple's face was dark. He was a dignified fourteen-year-old scholarly disciple, yet he was actually unable to defeat a boy who was much younger than him. Hearing Red Lotus's cheers simply made him go mad with anger.
Zhang Xuan turned his head and looked at this scholarly disciple. His internal energy was completely superior to his opponent's. During this period of time, he had been taking medicinal baths every day. With the astonishing absorption of the Taiyi Mysterious Scripture, his physique had also greatly improved. His body's strength was not inferior to his opponent's, or even stronger. In fact, Zhang Xuan had only used 80% of his strength in that attack just now. He had not used 20% of his strength. Otherwise, under the full strength, this scholarly disciple would not have simply suffered from a fist pain.
" A dignified disciple of the scholarly faction, is this all you have? You can't even defeat an eight-year-old child like me, and you still have the audacity to find an excuse to use demonic techniques? How shameless!" Zhang Xuan looked at the other party mockingly.
" That's right. You're clearly not Zhang Xuan's match, yet you still want to teach him a lesson. How embarrassing," Red Lotus chimed in from behind.
Immediately, he took out the sword that was originally used as a reward. A cold green light was faintly discernible on the blade. When some of the noble children of the palace saw that Yan Kun was actually using this sword, they immediately said indignantly," You're competing with an eight-year-old kid in swordplay, and you're actually using such a weapon? That's not fair!"
The others nodded in agreement.
Yan Kun's face twitched. He didn't want to listen to the ear-piercing commotion. He looked at Zhang Xuan and said gloomily,""Little brat, how is it? Could it be that you're afraid? Where did your arrogance go?"
Zhang Xuan casually took an ordinary sword from someone else and smiled casually."Afraid? I'm just excited. When I think about how I can have a sharp sword later, my mood is very good."
" Is that so? Aren't you afraid that the wind will hurt your tongue? I, Yan Kun, have been practicing the sword for many years. How can I lose to a little brat like you? I'll show you how powerful I am." Yan Kun held a sharp sword in his hand and rushed towards Zhang Xuan. When the surrounding people saw this, they immediately took more than ten steps back.
Zhang Xuan's heart was calm. His pair of blue eyes were like the calm lake water in an old well. He saw all the movements of his opponent. When Yan Kun was two meters away from him, Zhang Xuan's eyes suddenly widened. The sword in his hand quickly unsheathed and stabbed towards his opponent at lightning speed.
The speed of this sword was extremely fast, almost reaching the standard speed of a second-rate expert's sword. At the same time, Zhang Xuan's perception was fully open, carefully sensing all movements in the wind.
Yan Kun did not expect Zhang Xuan's sword to be so swift and violent. He was shocked and his forward attack was suddenly blocked. He immediately used his sword to block. A clear sound was heard. Zhang Xuan's sword was like a dragonfly skimming the water. After touching Yan Kun's sword, he immediately retreated.
Zhang Xuan knew that his opponent's sword was so sharp that ordinary swords would not be able to clash with it. It would be cut in half in a few rounds, so he was prepared to use speed to win.
Zhang Xuan's body moved and he quickly left his original spot. Yan Kun grinned when he saw this,""Hahaha, little brat, you're too naive. Do you think I can't see it?"
Yan Kun didn't move a single foot and quickly turned around. The sword in his hand drew a cold crescent behind him, but in the next moment, Yan Kun was shocked.
"Eh, why isn't there anyone? Where is he?"
"Idiot, Yan Kun, that kid is behind you!"
Hearing the anxious reminders of the other scholarly disciples, Yan Kun suddenly shivered. Zhang Xuan's speed was beyond his expectations. The moment he circled around behind him, he once again exerted strength. When he turned around, he returned to his original spot, leaving Yan Kun completely unable to react.
" It's over!" Zhang Xuan's cold voice rang out. Yan Kun only felt a sharp pain from his right hand. A stream of blood flew out and the sword in his hand fell to the ground. Then, he received a kick and fell to the ground again.
"Is this the sword you are good at? " It's too weak. Although the sword is a good sword, it's a stain on someone like you." Zhang Xuan took the sword and looked at Yan Kun with disdain. The speed of the other party's sword was too slow. It was obvious that he was a half-baked swordsman. He didn't put in any effort. Even if he practiced the sword for ten years, he wouldn't be able to make any progress.
" Bastard, is this how Korea treats its guests? Our scholarly faction came to Korea to select talented scholars and promote the teachings of sages, but you actually hurt them!" A scholarly disciple angrily shouted at Zhang Xuan and the others.
Zhang Xuan's expression was indifferent, and his eyes flashed with coldness. He mocked,"Picking talents and promoting the knowledge of sages? Ridiculous! Xun Zi is the one who did all this, not you guys. He overestimated himself and wanted to compete with me. He was the one who took the lead. Are you guys blind? Moreover, he even said that he would teach Hong Lian a lesson on behalf of her father. Do you know who Hong Lian is?"
Some of the royal children also shouted,"That's right, that guy asked for it. Furthermore, Red Lotus is the princess of our country. Attacking the princess of our country is a complete provocation. He even dares to say that he is replacing the King of Korea. He simply doesn't put us in his eyes."
"What?!" The scholarly disciples were all shocked, and their bodies trembled as they looked at Red Lotus. This little girl was actually the Korean princess.
" Oh right, I forgot to tell you that I'm also the son of the Prime Minister of Korea," Zhang Xuan said slowly as he looked at the group of Confucian disciples.
The son of the prime minister! This group of scholarly disciples was once again shocked. No matter which country it was, the prime minister of a country was a person with great power. The son of the prime minister was undoubtedly a person of noble status.
Just as the atmosphere between the two sides was solemn, there was a commotion from the examination hall that was covered by dyed cloth. Xun Zi and the others slowly walked out from inside.
