One Against Ten! Transform! Super Saiyan!

This was an open expanse strewn with jagged rocks. The forest's spread came to an end upon reaching this rocky belt, allowing sunlight from above to pour unobstructed onto the ground, warming the body all over.

Not far beyond the rocky area stood a raised slope, likewise scattered with irregular boulders. At this moment, quite a few people sat or stood atop and around those rocks. They were not particularly old, around twenty-four or twenty-five, and though their robes differed, each wore an identical tower-shaped badge on their chest. Clearly, these students were all Senior Students of the Inner Courtyard.

On another side of the slope stood a platform piled from huge stones. Two old men sat upon it—the very Elder Su and Elder Qing whom Xiao Yang had seen upon entering the forest. Several composed middle-aged men sat around them as well, evidently administrators of the Inner Courtyard.

"Hehe, I heard this batch of New Students is pretty arrogant? They actually dared to rob Senior Students of their 'Fire Energy'?"

On the hillside, gaze after gaze turned toward the darkness at the end of the forest, while teasing chatter passed between the crowd.

"Yeah. I heard from the Senior Student teams that came out of there that this batch has someone named Xiao Yang, and he's ridiculously strong."

"Bullshit! They're obviously just making excuses. There's only one person on the other side—how strong could he possibly be?"

"Exactly! Five against one and they got wiped out instead? Do those guys even know how to fight? They've completely disgraced the Inner Courtyard!"

Amid the discussions, several figures seated amid the rocky field below slowly opened their eyes, their indifferent gazes sweeping across the dark forest.

All ten figures sat cross-legged atop the rocks, their breathing long and steady, utterly unmoved by the whispers drifting into their ears.

Among the ten, five wore black and five wore white, yet they all possessed the same detached demeanor.

Clearly, they were the so-called Black White Twin Devils.

Time gradually passed as the morning sun moved overhead. Suddenly, a series of footsteps sounded from the dark forest. Everyone immediately perked up, their eyes unconsciously turning toward the forest exit. The previously noisy whispers abruptly fell silent.

On the stone platform atop the slope, Elder Su and Elder Qing also slightly raised their heads, narrowing their eyes as they looked toward the source of the footsteps.

As the atmosphere quieted, the footsteps from the dark forest became increasingly heavy. Before long, a figure dressed in black slowly emerged from the pitch-black forest entrance.

Looking at the small figure approaching with both hands in his pockets and an unhurried stride, the ten members of the Black Devil Team and White Devil Team all revealed shocked expressions.

The child below slowly spoke. "You're the so-called Black White Twin Devils?"

"White Devil Team Captain, Wang Zhong. The Black Devil Team Captain over there is my younger brother, Wang Chao," said the indifferent young man in white calmly.

Upon hearing those two names, Xiao Yang could not help but pause. Then, he slightly raised his eyes, and a flash of crimson vanished from them. "New Student, Xiao Yang."

Wang Zhong nodded. A powerful aura rose from his body, enveloping the entire rocky field. "Hand over your 'Fire Energy.' Stop struggling like a trapped beast, and you'll suffer a little less. You alone can't possibly defeat the ten of us."

With his hands in his pockets, Xiao Yang looked utterly unconcerned. "Sorry, but today, I'm taking on ten."

Black and red Reiatsu erupted from Xiao Yang's body, shooting straight into the sky and forcibly scattering the white clouds above.

The heavy, violent, domineering, and murky Reiatsu descended like a mountain upon the ten Senior Students of the Black White Twin Devils!

At that moment, Elder Su and Elder Qing, who were observing from the side, suddenly changed expression!

"This little fellow has such powerful Soul Power! Judging by Soul Power alone, it's at least at the Dou Wang level, isn't it?"

What the two Inner Courtyard elders did not know was that Xiao Yang had only unleashed a fraction of his Reiatsu.

An Eighth-Grade Alchemist who had reached the Spirit Realm in life could still attain the peak Dou Zong level even with only a remnant soul remaining.

Venerable Skyfire had been dead for at least several centuries, yet possessing someone with his Soul Power could still bring them to the level of a high-tier Dou Zong.

And an Eighth-Grade Alchemist was absolutely no weaker than Venerable Skyfire—perhaps even stronger.

Sensing the terrifying pressure erupting from Xiao Yang's body, Wang Zhong did not know what it was, but he no longer dared to speak so arrogantly.

He had already understood just what kind of terrifying power was hidden within the small body of the child before him.

Yet Xiao Yang refused to let it go. "Wang Zhong? Wang Chao? Hehe, not to be rude, but are two mere Dou Lings like you worthy of those names? Let me advise you—change them while you still can, unless you want to shorten your lifespans."

"What did you say?!" Wang Chao, dressed in black, flew into a rage, his face turning livid.

However, the pressure Xiao Yang had just unleashed kept him from making any rash move.

And Xiao Yang could not be bothered to explain anything to them.

Wang Zhong was the real name of Dream into Divine Machine, one of the five Supreme Gods at the pinnacle of the webnovel world in his previous life.

At the height of his glory, even Potato himself would have had to give him a wide berth.

Even a Great Ruler listed on the Azure Sky Chart might not be able to bear that name, much less a mere Dou Ling.

As for Wang Chao, he was the protagonist of Dragon Snake Romance, the founding work of the martial arts webnovel genre under Divine Machine's pen, and also the real name of another ancient webnovel god.

Breaking the Void, Seeing God Without Decay! Unrivaled beneath the heavens, Wang Chao—Wang the Invincible!

Xiao Yang had no doubt that even the original Wang Chao from the ending of Dragon Snake Romance would be enough to beat the shit out of that counterfeit standing before him!

What did supersonic physical speed mean? Before you could even form your Douqi armor, the opponent would have already shattered your bones and torn your tendons with a single punch.

Besides, in an environment as rich in spiritual energy as the Douqi Continent, Old Wang would probably ascend straight to Dou Saint the moment he arrived!

If he had not become a Dou Di, it was only because there was no Source Qi! This had already been proven in Stellar Emperor, the sequel to Dragon Snake Romance.

With the situation so bizarre, both sides felt they had suffered an enormous insult.

So there was nothing left to discuss. Time to fight!

Xiao Yang exhaled sharply, and vast, majestic golden Douqi violently erupted from his body. His shirt exploded into fragments that scattered in all directions!

It revealed the clearly defined eight-pack abs and robust chest muscles of his upper body.

The violent golden Douqi caused Xiao Yang's hair to stand on end in wild defiance, dyeing it a dazzling gold!

Golden aura blazed around Xiao Yang's body, while streaks of searing white lightning flashed around him.

If Xiao Yang's fellow transmigrator and older brother, Xiao Yan, had been there, he might have blurted out on the spot, "Fuck! A Super Saiyan?!"
