Lin Yu had never held much affection for Hu Liena to begin with. She was a troublemaking, lovestruck fool and an ungrateful wretch.
She had let the wolf into the house, allowing that little bastard Tang San to join the mission to hunt down Xiao Wu, preventing Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo from capturing her.
In the end, Xiao Wu sacrificed herself to Tang San, causing devastating losses on their side and leading many experts to die at Tang San's hands.
Later, she even leaked to Tang San the news that Bibi Dong was hunting the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python. In the end, Bibi Dong lost two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings, while Tang San, Spirit Hall's enemy, gained two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings instead.
Hu Liena was simply a traitorous disciple who had screwed over Bibi Dong—an ungrateful wretch through and through!
However, Lin Yu was not about to kill her over this incident alone. A glint of killing intent flashed through his eyes as he said coldly, "Compared to an ungrateful wretch, you're even more ungrateful than your teacher, Bibi Dong."
"Listen, Hu Liena. You'd better not fall for some bastard who uses Blue Silver Grass in the future. Otherwise, I'll definitely kill you!"
"Get lost!"
With that, Lin Yu ruthlessly kicked Hu Liena away.
"So strong..."
"Lin Yu actually defeated Hu Liena, the Pope's direct disciple, so easily. That's insane! Even most Soul Elder disciples aren't a match for Hu Liena!"
"But Lin Yu won without even using a single spirit ability. Just how strong is he?!"
Ordinary Core Disciples might not have understood why Hu Liena had been so thoroughly crushed, but the powerful higher-ups present knew very well.
Hu Liena's current strength lay in her powerful Charm Skill. Soul Masters of the same rank, or even one rank higher, could hardly resist it.
But once her charm could no longer threaten her opponent, Hu Liena's strength would drop dramatically.
"Damn it, Lin Yu! How dare you treat Nana like this? I'll kill you!!" Watching the goddess in his heart get beaten so miserably, Yan charged onto the platform with bloodshot eyes like a rabid dog.
"Martial Soul Possession!"
"Fire Yan Overlord!"
A flaming stone monster appeared behind Yan. The Fire Yan Overlord martial soul possessed dual fire and earth attributes, making it incredibly powerful and granting Yan not only formidable offensive strength, but also powerful defense.
Unfortunately, both fire and earth were Lin Yu's domain!
Yan could be said to be completely countered by Lin Yu.
"First Spirit Ability, Hell Magma Surge!"
Yan launched an attack immediately.
This move made the surrounding spectators frown, while Dugu Yan complained even more bluntly, "Seriously? You're attacking right away without even giving him time to rest and recover? Aren't they just taking turns fighting Lin Yu?"
"That's unfair!"
A wave of criticism toward Yan rose from the crowd, but Yan did not care. So what if he was being shameless?
Lin Yu did not care either. Taking turns fighting him?
Even if all three of them came at him together, they still could not win.
As Yan activated his First Spirit Ability, a vast eruption of molten flames surged up beneath Lin Yu's feet.
Lin Yu did not even try to dodge, remaining perfectly still where he stood.
"What is he doing? Why isn't he dodging?!"
Dugu Yan cried out nervously, "Lin Yu! Watch out!"
"You actually dare not dodge my First Spirit Ability? Kid, you're courting death!!" Yan grew excited as well.
Yet the Hell Magma flames shooting into the sky had already completely engulfed Lin Yu's body, but not a single scream from Lin Yu could be heard from within.
"What's going on?!"
"First Spirit Ability, Elemental Control!"
"Fire Control!"
Before anyone could react, the magma flames that had surged into the sky and engulfed Lin Yu exploded apart.
Lin Yu stood there completely unharmed, a faint smile on his face. "Who gave you the courage to play with fire in front of me?"
"What?!"
"How is that possible?!" Yan's face filled with horror as he instinctively staggered back two steps.
Using his control over fire, Lin Yu gathered the scattered magma flames around his fist, combining Yan's fire energy with his own fire-attribute energy.
With one punch, he unleashed a long blast of flaming force.
"Not good!"
"Second Spirit Ability, Granite Rock!"
Yan hurriedly activated his defensive spirit ability, covering the surface of his body with a layer of solid stone skin. Its defensive power was astonishing.
Yan blocked the flaming blast, but its force was too great. He was still sent flying and slammed heavily into the stone wall at the edge of the arena.
Bang!
"So strong! It looks like even Yan, at level 34, is completely no match for Lin Yu!"
At this moment.
Lin Yu stood proudly atop the arena stage, like an invincible existence.
His small frame was undoubtedly filled with a talent that made everyone fear and dread him.
Lin Yu found it truly boring. He suddenly pointed at Xie Yue outside the arena. "Fighting one at a time is too boring. Xie Yue, you come up too."
"How preposterous! This brat actually dares to look down on us like this!" Xie Yue clenched his fists tightly, his heart darkening. But if we go up one by one, none of us may be his match. Only if Yan and I join forces might we have a chance to defeat this brat!
Xie Yue glanced at Bibi Dong above him. Bibi Dong nodded at him.
Xie Yue understood Bibi Dong's meaning. His aura surged as he leaped onto the stage.
"Since you were the one who asked to fight two against one, Lin Yu, don't accuse us of an unfair victory if you lose!"
"Yan! Let's go!"
Two blood-red crescent-shaped curved blades appeared in Xie Yue's hands.
They were Moon Blades, top-tier Tool Martial Souls.
They possessed immense lethality. Their blades were light and nimble, moving with effortless grace, and their attack speed was extremely fast.
Thus, Xie Yue was also a Dual-Attribute Spirit Master, capable of both assault and agility combat.
Moreover, both of them were three-ringed Soul Elders. Their current strength far surpassed Hu Liena's.
Together, the two could easily defeat a Soul Ancestor-level expert. Their strength could not be underestimated.
Within Spirit Hall, they were exceptionally dazzling rising stars among the younger generation.
Unfortunately, before Lin Yu, their halos of genius would all become dim and lusterless.
The true battle was only beginning now!
"Second Spirit Ability, Elemental Body!"
Lin Yu's aura began to rise wildly. His strength, speed, body, Spiritual Power, and attribute power were all comprehensively enhanced as he entered his strongest state.
In this state, every aspect of Lin Yu far surpassed Xie Yue and Yan.
"Take him down!!"
Xie Yue and Yan roared as they attacked from both sides at once.
"First Spirit Ability, Moon Blade Slash!"
"Heh." Lin Yu merely raised his head slightly, and a small Earth Wall condensed in midair, blocking Xie Yue's slash.
His control over the elements had now reached a masterful level. With a casual wave of his hand, he could materialize attribute energy.
"Take this punch!"
At that moment, Yan's fist was already flying toward him.
"Earth Dominance!"
Lin Yu switched to Earth Dominance, and a layer of hard Earth Armor instantly covered the skin over his entire body.
Yan's fist struck Lin Yu in the chest, yet it caused no damage at all. Lin Yu mocked, "Are you scratching an itch for me?"
