It happened too suddenly, and Wei Zitong moved too fast. No one had time to react. Zhao Xin and Cheng Yaowen, who had been standing in Ge Xiaolun's flight path, were dragged down with him and fell flat on their backs, only managing to cry out, "Holy shit!"
As for Ge Xiaolun, he flew downstairs...
Wei Zitong lowered his leg, snorted coldly, and very stylishly brushed nonexistent dust off his thigh.
Everyone was momentarily dumbfounded. Only Liu Chuang, Zhao Xin, and the others who already knew something about Wei Zitong quickly snapped out of it, rushing to the concrete railing in the corridor to look down and see whether Ge Xiaolun was dead!
Only Wei Zitong knew that a fall from this height could never kill Ge Xiaolun. When the Taotie used the Fierce Tide to destroy Luoyang, Ge Xiaolun had fallen straight down from outer space and survived. Let alone a mere third floor. This guy clearly possessed an Undefeated Body, yet in the early days, he was such a coward. Perhaps Yan had been right: it was precisely because he feared death that he had built such an absurdly tough body!
Just as Wei Zitong stepped onto the railing and prepared to jump down, a shout of "Silence!" left his mind blank for an instant. In that instant of emptiness, his body lost balance and fell straight down!
Wei Zitong was somewhat surprised. He was surprised that his ability's effect on Ge Xiaolun had ended so quickly. It seemed that Ge Xiaolun, having awakened Galaxy Power, truly could not be underestimated!
Of course, Ge Xiaolun's "Silence!" did not distinguish friend from foe. Aside from Wei Zitong, everyone facing Ge Xiaolun among the onlookers was affected. Those trainees whose abilities were less apparent fainted outright, while even powerful ones like Zhao Xin and Liu Chuang were dazed for a second or two.
Before hitting the ground, Wei Zitong broke free from that mental short-circuit state and immediately used his ability on himself. "My body is indestructible!"
Wei Zitong landed safely and suffered no major injury, but he looked somewhat bedraggled because he had landed face-first.
The moment he got to his feet, he saw Ge Xiaolun charging at him with an enraged roar like a wild bull. He quickly sidestepped and, like a matador fighting a bull, guided Ge Xiaolun's body in a circle.
Seeing that Wei Zitong was too slippery to catch, Ge Xiaolun wanted to shout "Silence!" again to restrain his movements. The moment he opened his mouth, before the word "silence" could leave his lips, Wei Zitong drove a vicious punch into the bridge of his nose. Pain exploded through him, stars danced before his eyes, and he staggered several times, nearly losing his footing!
"Still not strong enough!" Wei Zitong muttered, then added another buff to himself. "My body possesses Immense Strength!"
He threw a punch. With a boom, the air burst into invisible ripples, and Ge Xiaolun's body smashed into Dorm B009 like a cannonball, throwing the room into chaos!
The onlookers also erupted in startled cries. Such glowing praise as "Holy shit!" and "Damn it!" rose one after another!
"Whoa! When did Zi Tong's strength become this terrifying?" Liu Chuang's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
"T-This is truly terrifying..." Wuji Yi exclaimed as well.
Zhao Xin watched with lingering fear. "Damn it, how are we even supposed to fight that? Xiaolun's practically getting beaten to death! Yaowen, should we go down and help?"
"Mm, let's keep watching. Keep watching..." Cheng Yaowen forced himself to remain calm, though his palms were sweating. "This is a test of Xiaolun's physical limits. Yes, a test!"
Wei Zitong did not go inside to check on Ge Xiaolun. He knew that although his punch had been powerful, it should not have been enough to kill Ge Xiaolun. That guy's body was tough as hell!
Sure enough, a moment later, an angry roar came from Dorm B009. "Damn it, I'm bleeding!"
Immediately afterward, there was a bang. A figure crashed through the wall and charged out like a speeding off-road vehicle, heading straight for Wei Zitong outside the dormitory!
Wei Zitong neither dodged nor retreated. He directly slammed into the charging Ge Xiaolun. The force of their collision was terrifying, unleashing a dreadful shockwave through the air that swept dust and fallen leaves away, leaving a circular bare patch three to four meters wide!
Wei Zitong was secretly shocked. Ge Xiaolun, forced to unleash his body's potential, was incredibly powerful. What made Wei Zitong groan inwardly was that the energy Lena had helped him replenish with such difficulty was plummeting at a visible rate!
As the two continued to wrestle, their potential was constantly being drawn out, and Wei Zitong's energy consumption kept accelerating!
"Energy consumption: 2%, 5%, 7%, 9%..." The system's cold voice made Wei Zitong increasingly agitated.
"30%..." Ge Xiaolun suddenly erupted with force, startling Wei Zitong. His energy had instantly dropped by 30%!
He hurriedly gave himself a "I feel no pain" buff, then quickly withdrew his strength!
Ge Xiaolun seized the opportunity to shove Wei Zitong backward, then smashed a heavy fist into his chest!
Wei Zitong doubled over from the blow, his body shooting backward. Though he had used his ability to shut off his sense of pain, the sensation of his internal organs nearly burning still made him feel awful. While still in midair, he gave himself another invisibility buff. "You can't see me!"
Seeing Wei Zitong sent flying by his punch, Ge Xiaolun was about to rush forward and continue attacking, but halfway there, Wei Zitong suddenly vanished into thin air.
Ge Xiaolun panicked a little. He knew this was Wei Zitong's invisibility ability, and he also knew that his Brain Damage Slash could dispel the effect. But Wei Zitong had to be in front of him first. He tried roaring "Silence!" in the direction Wei Zitong had flown, but nothing happened.
At that moment, Wei Zitong was crouching behind Ge Xiaolun, recovering. Ge Xiaolun's punch had been incredibly heavy, no weaker than Wei Zitong's own punch had been. His entire body still felt terrible. Fortunately, his back had not been facing the dormitory building, and he had been prepared, so he had stopped without hitting anything and avoided secondary damage.
That single punch had broken the "my body is indestructible" buff Wei Zitong had given himself. Ever since nearly exhausting himself while calculating Lena's Divine Body, Wei Zitong had understood that his ability was not limitless. Otherwise, as long as he had enough energy, he would already have the strength to challenge King Tier beings like Morgana.
"You coward! Come out here!" Ge Xiaolun looked around and shouted with great vigor, though he was panicking badly inside. He only knew that he could take a beating; he did not know he possessed an Undefeated Body. Wei Zitong's earlier punch had made him cough up blood, and he was terrified that Wei Zitong would sneak up and hit him again.
"Where'd he go? Where'd he go?" Zhao Xin kept craning his neck from upstairs. "Damn, Zi Tong's ability is useful. If I had it, I could sneak into the girls' dormitory, hehehe..."
"Just think about it. Don't take it seriously!" Cheng Yaowen mercilessly poured cold water on Zhao Xin. "If you actually dared to do that, Xiaolun would beat you to death!"
"Damn it, Yaowen, what's it got to do with you?" Zhao Xin said indignantly. "Fight? When has Xin Ye ever been afraid of anyone? I can take on ten by myself!"
"Why don't you go down and try right now?" Cheng Yaowen gave Zhao Xin no face at all. "Xiaolun's just worried he can't find an opponent!"
"Then forget it..." Zhao Xin immediately chickened out. He had never seen Ge Xiaolun erupt with such terrifying power before, and the sight made his scalp tingle.
"Hmph." Cheng Yaowen shook his head helplessly. At the same time, his interest in the battle grew. What had originally been nothing more than a minor scuffle had somehow turned into a real fight.
While Cheng Yaowen was thinking, Wei Zitong made his move. He drove a brutal punch into Ge Xiaolun's lower back, sending him flying into the air. Ge Xiaolun tried to turn his head and shout "Silence!" while airborne, but Wei Zitong spoke first again!
"You are not allowed to speak!"
"Hey, did you hear? It sounds like there's a fight going on near the boys' dormitory!" Qilin said as she sorted through the clothes she had just bought.
"Really? Fighting is my favorite!" Lena's face lit up with excitement. "Let's go take a look!"
"It's just a bunch of little punks fighting. Nothing worth seeing!" Du Qiangwei said disdainfully.
"No!" Qilin hurriedly said. "When I went out to get water just now, I heard them saying two handsome guys were fighting over someone. They even smashed up the wall of a first-floor dormitory!"
Du Qiangwei was about to say something else when she heard two passing girls talking outside the dorm room.
Girl A: "Did you hear? Those two handsome guys are amazing! They fell from the third floor and were totally fine. One can turn invisible, and the other can make people stupid just by shouting 'Silence!'"
Girl B: "Really? Let's hurry over and see!"
"Can turn invisible?" The three girls inside exchanged looks, all of them having a rough idea who it was. As for the "handsome guy" who could make people stupid by shouting "Silence," only Du Qiangwei, who had read the files, knew who he was. She also understood who the two were fighting over, and an inexplicable irritation rose in her heart as she cursed, "Two idiots!"
Wei Zitong's savage barrage left Ge Xiaolun's face covered in blood, but Wei Zitong could no longer keep fighting. The energy in his internal engine was running critically low. If he continued, he would have to consume his body's origin energy. So, instead of throwing his final punch, he rolled over and lay down beside Ge Xiaolun. "You win. I have no strength left..."
No one could accept this result. Wei Zitong had clearly beaten Ge Xiaolun badly, so why was Wei Zitong admitting defeat?
Only Wei Zitong himself knew that Ge Xiaolun had merely been overwhelmed by his powerful offensive for the moment and had been unable to strike back. Without a Godslayer Weapon, it was simply impossible to inflict any fundamental damage on him!
Sure enough, seeing Wei Zitong lying there and gasping for breath, Ge Xiaolun immediately rolled over and stood up. Looking down at Wei Zitong, he said, "Then Qiangwei..."
"If you can catch her, she's yours!" Wei Zitong said weakly. "I won't compete with you..."
"Good!" Ge Xiaolun was ecstatic, feeling that the beating had not been for nothing. He immediately reached out, wanting to pull Wei Zitong up. At that very moment, an enraged feminine shout erupted from the crowd of female onlookers. "Wei Zitong, you bastard!"
Wei Zitong looked up blankly and saw Du Qiangwei stepping out from the crowd one step at a time. He swore that this was the first time he had seen this woman truly angry. It felt completely different from when she had called him an "NPC"!
