Beating Up Yu Xiaogang

However, faced with Yu Xiaogang's moral blackmail, Lin Chen merely shook his head and sighed helplessly. "Grandmaster, my parents did invite you here, but I never intended to have you guide my cultivation. You've been flattering yourself this whole time."

Lin Chen looked at Yu Xiaogang and said coldly, "Besides, Grandmaster, you haven't even seen my Martial Soul, have you?"

Yu Xiaogang's face darkened, and he roared angrily, "Ridiculous! I'm a Grandmaster in the field of Martial Soul research. Do I need to see what your Martial Soul is to guide your cultivation?!"

"In that case, let's fight. If I can't even beat you, there's no point in me becoming a Power Attack System Soul Master." Lin Chen glanced at Yu Xiaogang and spoke coldly.

"You... you little brat, you've gone too far! A brat who isn't even a Soul Master says he can beat me? That's an insult!" Yu Xiaogang's face flushed crimson, and he was so furious that smoke seemed to pour from all seven of his orifices.

"Are you afraid, Grandmaster Yu? Are you worried that if you lose, a 'Grandmaster' like you will lose face?"

Lin Chen beckoned with his fingers, his face full of provocation. He genuinely didn't think Yu Xiaogang could beat him.

After all, fighting a 400-year-old Mandala Snake was a life-or-death struggle for Yu Xiaogang. How could he possibly beat Lin Chen, who possessed the Ultimate Armor?

Seeing that Yu Xiaogang still didn't dare accept the challenge, the servants nearby began whispering among themselves.

"Could this Grandmaster really be afraid?"

"If he really wasn't afraid of losing, he would have attacked already..."

"Fine. You're really something, you really are!" Yu Xiaogang trembled all over with anger as he listened to the whispers around him. Pointing a shaking finger at Lin Chen, he said furiously, "In that case, I don't mind helping your parents correct your lack of respect for your elders!"

"Anytime." A smile curved Lin Chen's lips as he slowly raised his left hand.

The next moment, the gem at the center of the Ultimate Bracelet flashed, and a sacred, powerful Soul Power fluctuation burst from his wrist.

"Ultimate Armor, possess me!"

"Clang—!"

With a sharp ringing sound, a ball of dazzling silver-white light erupted from Lin Chen's wrist.

The silver-white light instantly spread over his body like flowing water. Silver armor appeared over his shoulders, chest, and arms in succession, every plate sharply angled, with a dim blue light flowing along its edges.

His broad, thick pauldrons resembled a giant eagle spreading its wings, while the pentagonal energy core on his chest glittered like a diamond. Behind him, a pair of enormous silver wings snapped open, shining with the light of hope.

At the same time, the light on Lin Chen's right arm gathered again, forming a longsword the same color as his armor.

The blade was long and slender, and a diamond-shaped blue gem was set into its guard. It was as though wind passed through the crossguard, producing the faintest hum.

When the servants in the mansion saw Lin Chen after his Martial Soul Possession, they immediately let out piercing shrieks. The maids who lusted after his body in particular were practically blinded by the light in their eyes.

"So handsome—!"

"Young Master Lin Chen, go! Don't lose to that baldy!"

"Ah—! Young Master is so handsome!!!"

When Yu Xiaogang saw the might Lin Chen radiated, he couldn't help taking several steps back.

But he quickly recovered and said coldly, "The most important thing about armor isn't its appearance, but its function. Yours is all show and no substance!"

Lin Chen scoffed. "Why don't you try it yourself and find out whether it's all show?"

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you? Luo Sanpao, attack!" Two Hundred-Year Soul Rings slowly rose from beneath Yu Xiaogang's feet, and a pale-purple creature that looked like a cross between a dog and a pig appeared.

Yu Xiaogang pulled a white radish from inside his robes and tossed it into Luo Sanpao's mouth. "Sanpao, teach this brat a harsh lesson!" he shouted.

"Luoluo... luoluo... luo!"

Luo Sanpao let out a low growl and drew in a breath with the howl of a hurricane. His already fat belly expanded at an astonishing rate.

Yu Xiaogang swept up his hand, and one of the yellow rings around him flew out and settled over Luo Sanpao. He roared, "A fart like thunder, Earth-Shattering Luo Sanpao!"

Luo Sanpao's clear blue eyes suddenly lit up. His round body sprang into the air, climbing to an astonishing height of five meters before turning around. Then a thunderous boom rang out.

With the enormous boom, Luo Sanpao blasted out a thick yellow gas. A foul stench spread in an instant, sending the servants watching the spectacle fleeing backward.

Lin Chen frowned slightly and hurriedly held his breath. Sensing the reeking gas before him, he flashed silver with the Ultimate Armor and swung the Ultimate Zero Sword on his right arm fiercely forward, whipping up a gale that filled the sky!

"Hmph, a little brat who doesn't know his own limits." Yu Xiaogang snorted as he watched Lin Chen, who was shrouded in the mist, his eyes full of triumph.

"Clang—!"

Just as Yu Xiaogang thought he had won, the shit-yellow mist abruptly split in two.

Under Yu Xiaogang's stunned gaze, Lin Chen swung his arm, and the gale stirred up by the Ultimate Zero Sword blew the thick mist clean away.

"How is that possible?!" Yu Xiaogang stared at the scene in shock. Seeing that Lin Chen was completely unharmed, he hurriedly summoned Luo Sanpao and cried out anxiously, "A fart like smoke, hypnotic slumber, Luo Sanpao!"

"Pfft!"

The shit-yellow mist, imbued with a hypnotic effect, sprayed out again. Lin Chen swung the Ultimate Zero Sword once more, whipping up a gale that filled the sky and clearing a path he could move through. Then he kicked off the ground and appeared before Yu Xiaogang in an instant.

"No, this is impossible!" Yu Xiaogang tried desperately to flee, but after only a few steps back, he hit the courtyard wall and fell to the ground.

A smile rose on Lin Chen's lips. The Ultimate Zero Sword on his arm flashed silver as he thrust it straight toward Yu Xiaogang.

"Shhk!"

A streak of silver flashed past Yu Xiaogang's head, and the sharp silver sword plunged precisely into the wall behind him, leaving only a short length exposed.

The entire Lin residence fell deathly silent. The servants looked at Yu Xiaogang, sprawled helplessly on the ground, then at Lin Chen standing beside him, their eyes full of shock.

Lin Chen was only six years old and hadn't even absorbed a Soul Ring, yet he had defeated a Soul Master with two rings?!

Yu Xiaogang's lips trembled slightly, and his face was pale as he said, "Th-this is impossible..."

"How could I fail to beat a little brat... This can't be, it can't be..."

Lin Chen paid no attention to his loss of composure. He slowly pulled out the silver sword, his face full of provocation. "Grandmaster, do you still think the Ultimate Armor can only be used for defense?"

With that, Lin Chen slowly withdrew the Ultimate Armor, turning it back into a bracelet on his wrist.

"I can use the abilities I've shown so far without absorbing a Soul Ring. If the Soul Rings I absorb later can further sharpen the longsword, my attack power will only grow stronger."

"Besides, the abilities I've displayed now are only the most rudimentary use of the Ultimate Armor, far from all this armor can do."

"You can't even beat me as I am now, so how could you possibly teach me well?"
