Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 281 - 280: I... Have Indeed Advanced to Grade 5

Chapter 281: Chapter 280: I... Have Indeed Advanced to Grade 5

Luo Zuchen comforted Shen Ye, but inside, his intent to kill Shen Han intensified significantly.

He had no idea when the next such perfect opportunity would arise.

"Mr. Luo, your injuries..."

The sky was just starting to brighten, and the two were getting ready to set off back to the Capital City.

Upon hearing Shen Ye’s concern, Luo Zuchen waved his hand with a smile.

"You know me, in other aspects, perhaps I can’t compare to some Immortal Realm experts.

But when it comes to recovery, how many people in the world can surpass me?"

For Luo Zuchen, this was the trump card that gave him the courage to risk his life.

Every injury, to him, was nothing more than a minor rest before recovering.

Shen Ye nodded in agreement.

Without this recovery ability, Mr. Luo would not have been able to evade so many dirty tricks and ambushes.

Tianyi Academy.

It wasn’t until the night of the second day that Dean Tianyi finally came to disturb.

Letting Shen Han rest a full day.

In the reception hall, a pot of clear tea steeped before the two of them.

"Are you feeling better? Didn’t injure any critical areas, did you?"

Dean Tianyi asked with some concern, speaking softly.

But in his words, he couldn’t help but utter some lewd jokes.

Shen Han was already used to filtering out such jokes, nodded, and replied, "It’s just some minor injuries, naturally no hindrance."

"The world is vast, I wonder how Luo Zuchen and this apprentice of his managed to find the location of the Secret Realm.

Is it possible someone leaked the information?"

Although Dean Tianyi did not state it explicitly, his words implicitly pointed towards Su Jinyu.

Her relationship with Shen Ye was once that intimate.

However, Shen Han did not think anyone had leaked information.

"This time, the Secret Realm we explored was a place that, last year, Su Jinyu and Shen Ye had visited together.

They couldn’t solve its mysteries back then.

He probably guessed it."

Upon hearing Shen Han’s words, Dean Tianyi nodded as well.

Taking a light sip of tea.

"Shen Han, when I saw you that day, I observed you use a Body Technique.

The techniques seemed unlike the power of Sixth Grade.

Instead, they were closer to Fifth Grade..."

Dean Tianyi was somewhat uncertain, speaking hesitantly.

After all, the situation was urgent back then, and he might have felt wrongly.

Moreover, Shen Han is nineteen years old this year.

Nineteen, Fifth Grade, First Snow Realm, come on...

But somehow, he couldn’t resist asking, to confirm.

Upon hearing this from his dean, Shen Han hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"As the dean observed, I... have indeed advanced to the Fifth Grade, First Snow Realm..."

Dean Tianyi felt a jolt in his heart.

Dean Tianyi, a Second Grade Immortal Realm expert.

He’s seen great mountains and rivers, weathered great storms.

But today’s news genuinely shocked him.

At this age, stepping into the Fifth Grade is not impossible.

But they are very few.

At least among the current younger generation, besides Shen Han, only one other person has reached this level at this age.

He took a moment to regulate his breathing, and once calm, Dean Tianyi carefully pursued with a question.

"When did you advance...?"

Shen Han thought for a moment: "When I fought with Su Jinyu, I was already a Sixth Grade in the Fruit Realm, at that time just one step away from entering the Fifth Grade.

However, the fight with her didn’t bring much insight."

Dean Tianyi nodded in a stunned manner: "So, when you fought with Su Jinyu, you were indeed certain to win.

Moreover, she hadn’t even forced out your full strength..."

"Hmm..."

This "hmm" was calm, but it made Dean Tianyi tremble again.

"Then, at the academy’s grand competition, it was in the fight with Shen Ye’s clone.

That was when I truly gained some insights, stepping from the Sixth Grade into the Fifth Grade."

Shen Han spoke with calmness, without boasting, without pride, just speaking plainly.

If it were someone else.

Someone would ask: "Have you eaten?"

The answer would be: "How did you know I stepped into the Fifth Grade, yes, indeed I am nineteen..."

Shen Han’s composed demeanor truly left Dean Tianyi struggling to accept.

Trying to calm himself, Dean Tianyi took up the teacup in front of him and took another sip.

Having just put it down, he unconsciously picked it up again for another sip.

Smoothing his chest once more, he seemed to still not be at ease.

"I’ll go for a walk outside..."

With that, Dean Tianyi directly left the room, pacing back and forth in the courtyard.

Fifth Grade...

Fifth Grade, First Snow Realm...

Nineteen years old...

Muttering to himself, excited beyond measure.

Honestly, Dean Tianyi had never encountered such a genius.

His mind was in disarray.

He didn’t know how to cultivate Shen Han, nor how to protect him.

It was a full two quarters of an hour before Dean Tianyi returned to the room.

Looking at Shen Han, his eyes now held even more brilliance.

"No wonder you once asked about the cultivation methods beyond the Fifth Grade, I thought you were preparing for the future, I never expected you had already stepped into the Fifth Grade."

To Dean Tianyi’s praise, Shen Han could only nod.

"Although I have stepped into the Fifth Grade, First Snow Realm, in my previous duel with Shen Ye, he too concealed his strength.

In fact, he has stepped into the Fifth Grade, Fruit Realm.

Otherwise, I should have been able to contend with him."

"Fifth Grade, Fruit Realm?"

Upon hearing Shen Han’s words, Dean Tianyi furrowed his brows and then shook his head.

"With Luo Zuchen’s character, if Shen Ye truly stepped into the Fifth Grade, Fruit Realm, he would have already started boasting, how could he possibly endure until now.

Most likely, it’s some kind of Secret Technique that can temporarily enhance cultivation strength.

When I fought with Luo Zuchen before, he used similar tricks.

But the backlash from these Secret Techniques is severe, I don’t know why these two would dare to use it so brazenly."

Dean Tianyi’s guess was essentially accurate.

If Shen Ye truly had that kind of strength, he would undoubtedly be more proud.

Since discussing Luo Zuchen and his apprentice, this matter cannot be avoided.

"Shen Han, as your potential is increasingly revealed, their intent to kill you grows stronger.

After this failure, the next attack is likely to be even more dangerous.

Their preparations will surely be more complete..."

At this point, Dean Tianyi paused for a while.

"In my opinion, it would be best to add more guards to protect you.

For the next year or two, stay within the academy for cultivation and do not venture out rashly.

As for the previous Ten Nations Grand Competition, I think we can also decline it."

On this, Shen Han was not very satisfied.

"How can one grow under layers of protection?

As I previously told you, dean, under layers of protection, even if one’s cultivation and strength grow.

They would merely be a decorative pillow.

In the future, it’s possible that me, in the Fifth Grade, Fruit Realm, might not even rival others at the Fifth Grade, Half-Step..."
