Xu Sanshi's Jealousy, Three-Move Pact

Many people gathered around to watch the spectacle, finding it rather entertaining.

"Senior, I just enrolled. I barely have any cultivation. If you grab me and start fighting, won't you beat me to death?"

"How about this? Let's make a three-move pact. If you can knock me down within three moves, I'll stay away from Nannan from now on. I won't say another word to her, and whenever I see her, I'll take a detour."

"But if you can't even touch me within three moves, then you lose."

"After that, you're not allowed to trouble me again, nor are you allowed to interfere with my relationship with Nannan. How about it?" Shiyu proposed.

That guy did not seem like the sort to let this go easily. If he did not take the initiative to suggest this, the other party might chase after him and beat him up. That would be far too humiliating for him to accept.

Besides, there might be plenty of trouble in the future, so he needed to think of a way to avoid it as much as possible.

"He's a Soul Elder, while you're only a Spirit Master. The gap is far too great. He can knock you down in one move," Jiang Nannan reminded him, shaking her head slightly at Shiyu and hoping he would not do anything foolish.

"Don't worry." Shiyu gave her a reassuring smile, then looked at Xu Sanshi and waited for his answer.

"Three moves it is. But I'm adding one more condition. If I win, you'll come over every day and let me beat you up. How hard I hit will be entirely up to me," Xu Sanshi said darkly.

He did not want to beat Shiyu to death, but neither did he want to beat him up just once. He wanted to beat him every day.

Shiyu deliberately put on a troubled expression. After hesitating for a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'm adding a condition too. If I win, you're never allowed to harass Nannan again."

This time, it was Xu Sanshi's turn to hesitate. What if he lost?

"Are you scared?" Shiyu asked tentatively.

"How could that be? We'll do as you said." Xu Sanshi could not stand being provoked at that moment, and his voice rose several decibels.

"Come outside and fight me now. I can't wait to beat you up," Xu Sanshi urged.

"No, I still have work to do. We'll talk after I'm done," Shiyu said, deliberately leaving Xu Sanshi hanging.

"Now. Immediately." Xu Sanshi could not wait another moment.

"What about my work?" Shiyu looked toward the Cafeteria Manager. The commotion here had grown rather large and attracted quite a few people, including the cafeteria's manager.

"Go ahead. Be careful," the Cafeteria Manager said. He had no way to stop them and could only say that, looking at Shiyu with some sympathy. How had he managed to provoke Xu Sanshi?

"Alright." Shiyu started to head out.

"Can you really do this?" Jiang Nannan grabbed Shiyu's hand, worried. After all, this matter had started because of her.

"I have to, even if I can't. I don't want to get beaten up every day," Shiyu said with feigned ease before continuing outside.

"We'll settle this right here." Xu Sanshi arrived at an open area outside the cafeteria. It was spacious enough for a fight.

"Fine." Shiyu did not mind. He stood opposite Xu Sanshi, keeping a distance of over twenty meters between them.

"Are they fighting over there?" Many people moved closer, all coming to watch the excitement.

"Who's Xu Sanshi butting heads with this time?" Beibei squeezed to the front with two others.

"Senior Brother, do you know him?" the thin youth beside Beibei asked curiously.

"I know him too. Xu Sanshi and your Senior Brother are pretty good buddies," Tang Ya, the girl on Beibei's other side, said.

"We're brothers, not buddies," Beibei explained.

Huo Yuhao indicated that he understood and silently cheered for his Senior Brother's good buddy.

"What's going on with those two?" Beibei asked one of the spectators.

That person knew the situation and gave them a brief explanation.

"So they're fighting over Jiang Nannan," Beibei said in realization.

No wonder Xu Sanshi looked so furious. This guy was being so intimate with Jiang Nannan that Xu Sanshi was probably close to being angered to death.

This open area was not far from the Dormitory Area. The cafeteria and dormitories stood right next to each other, and one could see this clearing from the entrance to the area.

Mu En, reclining in a Rocking Chair, watched the scene with great interest.

Many spectators blocked his view while he lay there, so he should not have been able to see anything at all. Yet he still watched with great interest, as though he could see everything clearly.

Shiyu looked at Xu Sanshi across from him. He certainly felt some pressure, but not that much.

After all, when he had traveled to Ten Thousand Years Ago, he had even been hunted by the Spirit Saint Zhao Wujin.

He had escaped from a Spirit Saint and evaded many of his attacks. Could he not dodge three attacks from a mere Soul Ancestor?

Xu Sanshi was also a Defense System Spirit Master, lacking in offensive power, which reduced the pressure even further.

Xu Sanshi glared viciously at Shiyu as the Mysterious Nether Turtle Shell Shield appeared before him and solidified.

It was thick and heavy overall, its surface covered in turtle-shell patterns. It even seemed as though a Mysterious Nether Turtle lay dormant within it.

Before Xu Sanshi's Martial Soul evolved, it was the Mysterious Nether Turtle Shell Shield. If his fortune was sufficient, it could evolve into the legendary Black Tortoise Shell Shield.

Soul Rings appeared one after another: yellow, yellow, purple. Three in total, representing his Soul Elder cultivation.

Once Xu Sanshi released his Martial Soul, everyone shifted their attention to Shiyu, wanting to see what level of strength the opponent of Soul Elder Xu Sanshi possessed.

Shiyu put on a convincing show of releasing his Martial Soul. A Silver Vortex appeared behind him, leaving quite a few people wondering what kind of Martial Soul this was.

After releasing his Martial Soul, a yellow Soul Ring rose beneath Shiyu's feet.

Everyone waited for a second Soul Ring to rise, but after waiting for a while, none appeared. There was only one.

"So he's just a Spirit Master in his teens. Is there even any point in fighting?" Many people were immediately disappointed and lost interest in watching. Was there any suspense here?

"What kind of Martial Soul is that?" Even Beibei failed to recognize it.

Tang Ya shook her head as well. Huo Yuhao knew even less, though his intuition told him that this Soul Ring was somewhat extraordinary.

"I'm making my move!" With so many people watching, Xu Sanshi shouted a warning, lest anyone accuse him of needing to launch a surprise attack against a Spirit Master in his teens.

With that, he gripped the Mysterious Nether Turtle Shell Shield and charged fiercely toward Shiyu, his footsteps heavy yet swift.

From where Shiyu stood, he could clearly feel pressure pressing in from all directions, as though water had enveloped his body and hindered his movements.

Shiyu remained motionless. He showed no intention of using a soul skill or dodging, leaving many people utterly baffled.

Xu Sanshi was furious, mistakenly thinking Shiyu was looking down on him. He put more force into his charge.

He was a Defense System Spirit Master, but being struck by him like this would definitely not feel good. It would probably be similar to getting slammed by a charging bull.

Even when Xu Sanshi came within less than two meters of him, Shiyu still made no move.

"He's probably scared stupid," someone commented, shaking his head slightly. This person's fate was already foreseeable.

"Dodge!" Jiang Nannan grew anxious just watching and could not help shouting a warning. She truly did not want to see Shiyu's bones broken and tendons torn by the impact.

Beibei frowned as he watched, feeling that something was off. The other party should not have been frightened senseless, nor should he have done absolutely nothing.

Xu Sanshi's shield was about to slam into Shiyu when Shiyu vanished from where he stood, causing the shield to strike empty air.

The lack of any solid impact made Xu Sanshi's expression change slightly. Had his opponent disappeared?

"What's going on?" The spectators cried out in surprise. They watched Shiyu vanish before their eyes, then reappear where Xu Sanshi had been standing. It was as though the two had exchanged positions.

Xu Sanshi charged forward some distance before steadying himself. He turned to look at Shiyu, feeling irritated, as though he had been toyed with.

"One move." Shiyu raised one finger and smiled at Xu Sanshi.
