Seeing Yue Zhenhua standing up, many people around him immediately stepped back.

Yue Zhenhua, who had lost his son, was bound to go insane. If anyone tried to stop him at this time, they would certainly become enemies. Even Guo MO hesitated a bit.

Only those who came with him reminded him: “Pavilion Master, be careful. Su

Mingyue is a disciple of Gongsun Du of the Great Divine Sect. It's fine if you kill

Lin Zhen, but if you hurt her, it will be tough to deal with.”

Although Yue Zhenhua was extremely angry, he had not lost his reason. He said to the people around him: “I haven't become so confused as to go that far. However, Feng'er died because of this girl. If she doesn't know what's good for her, I'll have to teach her a lesson.'

During their conversation, Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue had already arrived at the platform and stepped out of the invisible barrier without hesitation.

Yue Zhenhua moved and intercepted Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue.

“Lin Zhen, you really have guts to actually dare to step out of the protection of the Star Fruit Tree. Today, I will take your head to honor Feng'er's soul in heaven!”

Su Mingyue unsheathed her sword with a “clang”and stood in front of Lin Zhen.

“Su Mingyue, Feng'er took this step because he was in love with you. Now that he died for you, don't you have the slightest bit of sympathy or regret? Will you continue to help this brat?” Yue Zhenhua looked up and down at Su Mingyue, thinking she's nothing but a heartbreaker. It's only natural that his son was infatuated with her. If Yue Zhenhua was young, he would definitely fight for her as well.

Su Mingyue just snorted, “Yue Feng got what he deserved. No one can touch Lin

Zhen!”

“Good, good, good! Feng'er really misjudged you. Since you insist on stopping me, today you will stay here with Lin Zhen!”

At this moment, Yue Zhenhua was filled with rage and stopped caring about many things.

With a raise of his hand, a green longsword appeared in Yue Zhenhua's hand.

As a close friend of Chen Fenglie, he also learned sword techniques. The longsword in his hand was extraordinary, and even Lin Zhen's eyes narrowed when he saw it.

A middle-grade Star Artifact, it was actually a middle-grade Star Artifact!

As far as Lin Zhen was aware, elite War God-level practitioners who dared venture into ancient god ruins and come out alive generally possessed a Star Artifact, more or fewer. It wasn't surprising that Yue Zhenhua had a middle-grade Star Artifact.

As the Gale Pavilion Master, Yue Zhenhua didn't possess many Star Artifacts because he had too many mundane affairs to attend to and couldn't venture into ancient god ruins like other War Gods. Even though his power and status were high, many War Gods didn't envy him.

But for Lin Zhen right now, this middle-grade Star Artifact longsword was a deadly weapon.

Considering that even Su Mingyue's sword wasn't a Star Artifact, how could it compete with the opponent's middle-grade Star Artifact longsword?

Lin Zhen pulled Su Mingyue and said, “Yue'er, don't engage in this fight. I'll handle it.”

“Why?” Su Mingyue pouted slightly, her lips dissatisfied.

“I killed his son, and he must avenge this grudge. Even if we work together and win today, he will come after us in the future. It's better for me to confront him directly. As long as I don't die today, he won't be able to bother me like this in the future. At most, he'll resort to some underhanded tricks. So, I can't avoid this fight.”

“No, I don't agree. It's too dangerous!” Su Mingyue firmly shakes her head, refusing to let Lin Zhen take the risk alone.

Seeing that many people around them were still watching, Lin Zhen scratched his head and simply put his arm around Su Mingyue's slender waist: “Baby, be good! Listen.”

“You… what did you call me?” Su Mingyue's eyes widened, looking incredulously at Lin Zhen.

“I said… baby…”

“Ah!” Su Mingyue covered her ears, her face and neck turning red, even her earlobes reddening. Although she had already chosen Lin Zhen, their relationship hadn't reached that level yet.

She had let Lin Zhen kiss her once yesterday, but that was just because they had missed each other after a long separa tion. She still couldn't accept such intense passion, especially with Lin Zhen calling her that in front of so many people, making it even more embarrassing.

Pushing Lin Zhen away, Su Mingyue went to a corner, lowered her head, and didn't dare to look at the crowd, her heart racing.

Lin Zhen laughed, dealing with a little girl was just too easy.

On the other side, Yue Zhenhua was so angry that his eyelids were twitching: “You're too focused on picking up girls instead of making progress at your age.

You're a disgrace to Gale. Let me tell you now, you're no longer a member of “I'm sorry, but I now belong to Ice City Wind Martial Arts Pavilion. Although you are the general Pavilion Master, if you want to kick me out, you need the order of Pavilion Master Dongfang Jun. Your word doesn't count.” “If Dongfang Jun dares disobey me, I'll remove him first.”

“Well, let's wait for Pavilion Master Dongfang's order!” Lin Zhen raised his hand, and the Star Weapon Spear appeared in his hand. Seeing this spear, Yue Zhenhua became even more furious and was about to take action.

At this moment, Guo MO came over: “Wait a moment.”

“Guo MO! What do you want?” Yue Zhenhua stared furious at Guo Mo.

“Pavilion Master Yue, Lin Zhen is also a member of my God Generals Training Camp. Now that he's stepped out of the Star Fruit Tree, it means he's graduated. Once he's under the tree, he should receive his diploma and rewards. Your obstruction is somewhat against the rules.”

“Hmph! He killed my son and still expects to graduate smoothly? Dream on, Lin Zhen! You're not getting off the Star Fruit Tree today.”

At this moment, Lin Zhen suddenly had a thought and said to Yue Zhenhua,

“What if I do manage to get off the Star Fruit Tree?”

“Ridiculous! You're just a Primary War God. If you can survive under my sword and walk away from the Star Fruit Tree, I promise that today's matter will end here, and I will never cause trouble for you in public.”

Yue Zhenhua was experienced, and although he was confident in dealing with Lin Zhen, he did not make his words absolute. He only said he would not cause trouble for Lin Zhen in public. This was already considered a considerable concession.

Lin Zhen didn't expect Yue Zhenhua to give up on avenging his son. He immediately said to Guo MO, “Head Instructor, since Pavilion Master Yue has already spoken, I cannot back down. You all can wait under the tree, ready to present me with my graduation certificate and prizes.”

Guo MO looked deeply at Lin Zhen. With the Great Divine Sect absent, there was indeed no better solution. Although he doubted Lin Zhen's ability to descend the tree while evading Yue Zhenhua's pursuit, he still respected the agreement between the two martial artists.

“Fine. None of us will interfere in your fight today. As long as you, Lin Zhen, can make it to the ground by going down the Heavenly Ladder, I guarantee that Yue Zhenhua won't hurt you anymore.”

With that, Guo MO began organizing everyone to leave the platform and head to the ground level.

Only Su Mingyue remained, her big teary eyes reluctant to leave.

Lin Zhen had to coax her into temporarily agreeing to leave.

As she left, she clung to Lin Zhen's clothes' hem: “Lin Zhen, if you still want your Yue'er to live well, you have to come down in one piece. Otherwise, I'll take you back to that pond, and we'll be buried there together.”

“Don't say such silly things. We both have to live well until the end of time.”

Lin Zhen patted Su Mingyue's hand, and only then did she leave reluctantly, looking back multiple times.

After waiting for a while, from the platform, they could vaguely see the waving flags on the ground, signaling the staff members.

Yue Zhenhua, having recovered his breath, stood up: “Lin Zhen, are you prepared to leave this world?”

“Not prepared.” Lin Zhen shook his head.

Just as Yue Zhenhua was about to mock him for his cowardice, Lin Zhen suddenly said, “But I'm prepared to leave the Fruit Tree.”

With that, Lin Zhen's figure flashed, instantly moving directly away from the platform, to the edge of the Heavenly Ladder's steps leading down.

“Seeking death! How dare you try playing tricks with me!”

Yue Zhenhua's speed was even faster. With a leap, he instantly charged at Lin Zhen. He knew Lin Zhen had instant teleportation, but there was a brief interval between teleportations. For someone like him at the edge of the Star Realm, that speed was not considered fast.

Also, Lin Zhen wouldn't be able to use his second instant teleportation in front of him. As soon as Lin Zhen showed any signs of movement, Yue Zhenhua would interrupt him, as he himself was a Spiritual Mind Master at the Dark Gold Middle Stage!

Rushing in front of Lin Zhen, Yue Zhenhua swung his longsword – a simple but vicious and extremely fast attack!

Lin Zhen's spear was infused with golden energy, boosting the strength of this Star Weapon Spear to a level comparable to Yue Zhenhua's Middle Grade longsword.

“Open!”

Lin Zhen didn't use any fancy moves either. The basic spear technique he had learned from Zhang Guanyue came into play at this moment – the simplest block, immovable like a mountain, activating Raging Fire Sky!

“Boom!”

A massive rumble sounded, Yue Zhenhua's body flew backwards through the air, while Lin Zhen's face turned flushed, his chest churning. He was facing someone at the edge of the Star Realm, so this attack made him very uncomfortable.

Yue Zhenhua's shock was even greater than Lin Zhen's – Lin Zhen was only a Third Level War God but managed to block his downward strike. That was truly an incredible feat!

“Your spear technique is not bad. Who did you learn it from?” Yue Zhenhua asked slowly.

“What do you think?”

Lin Zhen smiled, and suddenly kicked off the ground, flying backwards down several tens of meters along the Heavenly Ladder's steps.

“Where do you think you're going!?”

Yue Zhenhua immediately pursued from behind. After exchanging a few blows in mid-air, he was even more shocked that he couldn't maintain an overwhelming advantage in terms of speed over Lin Zhen.

“How is this possible? This kid's speed and strength are already beyond a Primary War God's level, and can even rival an ordinary Advanced War God. No wonder Feng'er lost to him. If this guy grows up, he could pose a threat to me. He must not be allowed to live!”

Yue Zhenhua's sword swings became faster and faster, while Lin Zhen continued to utilize various techniques, his electro-light power erupting, fighting and retreating around the tree. Yue Zhenhua couldn't take him down for a time, and the two plummeted hundreds of meters, approaching the fourth level platform.

The people below couldn't see their situation, but high in the sky was a cloud within which a flying saucer-shaped war machine hovered. Two people wearing Star Sky Divine Teaching robes were watching their battle through a screen inside the craft..
