Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon? What Kind of Trash Is That?

"Whoever answered is who I was insulting."

Gu An leaned back in his chair and gave him a lazy look. "What, you barked like a dog from across the room for ages, but now you can't take it when it's your turn?"

Tang Xiaosan's face turned livid with rage. He was about to lose his temper when a cool voice suddenly rang out.

"Tang Xiaosan."

On the other side of the classroom, Lorina closed the terminal in front of her.

A displeased chill settled over the girl's delicate face.

"If you want to make trouble for Gu An, go right ahead. There's no need to do it in my name, much less take it upon yourself to stand up for me."

Tang Xiaosan's expression stiffened. "Lorina, I just can't stand this guy..."

"That's your business. It has nothing to do with me."

The girl's tone remained calm, as though she saw no need to discuss the matter any further.

With that, she turned her attention back to her terminal.

Several boys nearby exchanged glances, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

Tang Xiaosan felt as though his face were burning.

He had spent all that time speaking up for Lorina, only to be called a dog by Gu An and have Lorina publicly disown any connection to him!

Yet he couldn't possibly take his anger out on Lorina.

So all that pent-up frustration fell on Gu An instead.

"Gu An, quit showing off that sharp tongue of yours!"

Tang Xiaosan slammed a hand on his desk. "Don't we have a combat class this morning? Do you dare get on the sparring stage with me? I'll make you kneel and admit you were wrong today!"

The boy couldn't help finding it funny.

What a good little bootlicking dog. He didn't dare say a word against Lorina, but he bared his teeth at Gu An.

"The sparring stage? Sure. But just fighting would be a little too boring."

"What do you want?"

"Two portions of ordinary Creation Origin."

Gu An held up two fingers. "If you win, I'll kneel and admit I was wrong in front of everyone. If you lose, those two portions of Creation Origin are mine."

He had been scheming ever since the other party started mocking him.

Xiao Xi's condition couldn't wait. He needed more Creation Origin now.

Since the other party had come to him, he naturally wouldn't pass up such a good opportunity.

The classroom fell silent at once.

At market price, two portions of Creation Origin were worth 136,000 star coins!

Cheng Ye couldn't help turning to look at him. Had this guy gone crazy from needing money?

Tang Xiaosan was also stunned for a moment, but then he sneered. "Can you even come up with two portions of Creation Origin? And you dare bet with me?"

"I'm putting my dignity on the line. You're putting up two portions of Creation Origin."

Gu An glanced at him. "If it's too expensive, you don't have to bet. No one's forcing you."

Tang Xiaosan's expression immediately grew uglier.

He did have two portions of Creation Origin. His family had prepared them specifically for the further development of the Dou Soul Continent.

But everyone was watching now. If he backed down because a creator of a chaos waste world scared him off, how could he ever hold his head high in class again?

Besides, why would the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon lose to a world that didn't even have heaven or earth?

"Fine! I'll take that bet!"

Tang Xiaosan sneered. "But if you lose, you'll kneel on the ground like a good boy and admit you're trash!"

"No problem."

Gu An agreed readily.

The two signed a betting agreement on their terminals on the spot, and Tang Xiaosan's two portions of Creation Origin were placed in escrow.

Seeing Gu An agree so readily only made Tang Xiaosan angrier.

He wanted to see if this guy could still be so arrogant when they actually started fighting that morning!

Gu An couldn't be bothered with him anymore.

He had already been in a bad mood these past two days because of his sister, and now there was a dog barking beside him. Naturally, he wouldn't hold back.

As for that Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon of his, what kind of trash was that?

The second class that morning was in the combat training hall.

Word of Tang Xiaosan and Gu An's bet had long since spread, and quite a few people had gathered around the central sparring stage.

"136,000 star coins! Tang Xiaosan really dared to bet that much?"

"Why wouldn't he? Didn't you see that video of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon yesterday?"

"I think Gu An's the crazy one. If he loses, he has to kneel in front of everyone."

Cheng Ye grew irritated listening to them. He said in a low voice, "Gu An, how sure are you about this? That guy isn't an ordinary student anymore."

"Perfect. I haven't fought anyone who's actually received supernatural feedback yet."

"...You're using a 136,000-Star Coins bet for practice?"

Cheng Ye hardly knew what to say.

Tang Xiaosan had already stepped onto the stage. A yellow Spirit Ring rose beneath his feet, blue-violet lightning burst along his right arm, and fearsome dragon scales emerged one by one.

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, martial soul possession!

He casually swiped a claw, and lightning slammed into a training target, making even the protective barrier ripple.

The chatter below the stage instantly grew much louder.

A video was separated from them by a screen, after all. Only when they saw that dragon arm in person did everyone realize how fierce the power granted by the hundred-year Spirit Ring's feedback was.

"Gu An, get your ass up here!"

Tang Xiaosan pointed below the stage, his eyes full of malice. "Today I'm going to see what your lousy chaos can do for you!"

The boy remained calm. "I hope that foul mouth of yours can still talk in a moment."

Teacher Zhou had already activated the protective formation. He reminded both sides in a grave voice, "This is a normal spar. Deliberately using lethal force is forbidden. If the protective formation is triggered, you lose. Don't let your personal grudges go too far."

Gu An paid him no heed.

They were already on the fighting stage. Wouldn't it be a joke not to bring their personal grudges into it?

Gu An paid him no heed.

They were already on the fighting stage. Wouldn't it be a joke not to bring their personal grudges into it?

"Begin!"

Boom!

Tang Xiaosan stamped his foot and charged forward, lightning enveloping him.

Before the dragon claw even descended, the fierce wind had already set Gu An's sleeves snapping.

With an ordinary body's reactions, there would have been no time to dodge.

But to Gu An, this was no faster than a crawling snail.

He didn't even raise his hands. He merely shifted his feet half a step with effortless ease.

Whoosh!

The dragon claw had looked close enough to reach him, but that seemingly certain strike met only empty air as it grazed Gu An's clothes, as though an invisible gulf lay between them despite their closeness!

Tang Xiaosan's movements faltered. He changed moves again and again, lightning tearing through the air as each claw strike grew fiercer than the last, yet he couldn't so much as touch the hem of Gu An's clothes.

"What's going on? Tang Xiaosan's clearly faster!"

"It's like Gu An knows where he's going to strike every time. And it looks like they're practically touching, so how does he keep missing by an inch?!"

Cheng Ye's eyes widened.

He knew what Gu An's skills had been like before. What he was seeing now was like seeing a ghost.

Tang Xiaosan grew even angrier. "Gu An, if you've got any guts, stop fucking dodging!"

Gu An said, "You really are shameless and proud of it. Why don't you just tell me to stand still?"

A few muffled laughs came from the crowd.

"Fine! Let's see how you dodge this!"

The yellow Spirit Ring suddenly lit up, and lightning gathered frantically around the dragon claw.

First soul skill, Thunderclap Dragon Claw!

A vast sheet of lightning spread out, sealing off almost every escape route in front of the sparring stage.

Instead of retreating, Gu An advanced, showing no sign of panic.

"You're asking for death!"

Tang Xiaosan swung his claw down with a vicious grin, only to see with horror that Gu An had shifted his footwork.

Though they had been two or three steps apart, Gu An seemed to cross a folded span of space, slipping into the blind spot on his left in an instant like a ghost!

The raging lightning blasted harmlessly in its original direction. Tang Xiaosan's pupils contracted, and there was no stopping his forward momentum.

Gu An stepped in close, his right hand precisely clamping down on the vital point at the wrist of Tang Xiaosan's dragon arm. He twisted it downward with the motion, then drove a heavy knee savagely into his abdomen!

Bang!

Tang Xiaosan spat up a mouthful of sour fluid, and the lightning around his entire right arm dispersed on the spot.

Gu An then pressed a hand against the back of his head and slammed him hard onto the sparring stage!

Before he could struggle back up, Gu An stepped forward and stamped his right foot down on his shoulder and back, pinning him firmly to the stage!

"Get the fuck off me!"

Tang Xiaosan's cheek pressed against the cold floor, his eyes red with humiliation as he continued to curse wildly. "You piece of trash who created a waste world, I'll fucking kill you..."

"Looks like you still don't understand human speech."

Gu An looked down at Tang Xiaosan, who was barking beneath his foot. "You barked for ages in the classroom, and your mouth still stinks just as badly up here."

The moment he finished speaking, Tang Xiaosan struggled to raise his head, intending to activate his martial soul.

Gu An immediately lifted his right foot, aimed at that still-cursing mouth, and kicked it without mercy!

Bang!!

A solid, muffled impact rang out!

Tang Xiaosan's scream cut off abruptly, blood filling his mouth.

His head twisted to one side and slammed back onto the stage, leaving only pained whimpers!

Hum!

The sparring stage's protective formation suddenly flashed red, sealing away the last traces of lightning escaping from his body.

[Protection triggered, spar concluded.]

[Winner: Gu An!]

[Bet settled successfully.]

[Ordinary Creation Origin ×2 credited.]

The training hall was utterly silent.

Tang Xiaosan, who had earlier declared that he would make Gu An kneel, was now being trampled underfoot in front of everyone.

Not only that, but 136,000 star coins' worth of resources had just entered Gu An's account.

Gu An glanced at the deposit notification and immediately felt quite pleased.

He had only just arrived, and a fool was already delivering Creation Origin to him.

Not far away, a girl with long silver-white hair had also seen what had just happened.

A hint of mockery flashed in the girl's eyes.

She wasn't surprised that Gu An could win.

But the person who had said just two days ago that the world she had constructed consumed too much had taken the initiative to seek a loan from someone in order to win the bet.

It really was ironic.

"Annoying fellow, I want to see whether you'll still look like this when you lose and kneel at my feet calling me Mommy."
