Visitors Arrive at the Second Generation's Home

"What, you can't control your own dog and you have the nerve to talk back?"

With Ding Yang's personality, how could he possibly back down?

He met Xiang Tian's gaze, completely unfazed.

"Fine, then I'll ask you this: a few days ago, my pet was walking down the road and happened to pass by you. You whipped it eight times, leaving it torn and bleeding. I'll ask you, did it provoke you then? If I hadn't investigated, it would have been hard to find you!

After hearing Xiang Tian's words, Ding Yang looked at him as if he were an idiot, his tone filled with disdain: "It's just an animal. Do I, Ding Yang, need a reason to beat an animal?"

"That's true. Then I don't need a reason to hit you either, do I?"

Xiang Tian smiled and directly kicked Ding Yang in the chest, sending him flying into the wall.

Woosh!

The entire classroom of students was stunned. Within Changning Immortal Academy, students engaging in private combat was grounds for expulsion – it was an ironclad rule!

"Brother Ding!"

A few people exclaimed.

"What? Want to try?"

Xiang Tian looked at them. They exchanged glances, not daring to make a move.

They were genuinely afraid. If they fought today, they'd be kicked out of the academy tomorrow.

"Then just behave and watch."

Setting Little Huang down, Xiang Tian walked up to Ding Yang.

Ding Yang, who had just gotten up, clutched his chest, gasping for breath. The force of that kick was simply too immense.

"I'm warning you, fighting is forbidden in the academy. Don't think I'm afraid of you!"

Ding Yang glared at Xiang Tian, gritting his teeth.

Xiang Tian's response was another punch!

It made Ding Yang see stars and left two crimson streaks beneath his nose.

Another elbow strike sent Ding Yang sprawling onto the ground.

"Fine, you really think I'm easy to bully, don't you!"

Shaking his head vigorously, Ding Yang's gaze towards Xiang Tian was filled with scarlet rage. He had never endured such humiliation, being beaten like this in front of so many people.

"You're asking for death, and I'll grant it to you today. Sword, come forth!"

Ding Yang shouted, and a small, dark sword flew from his mouth. It then rapidly grew larger and lunged towards Xiang Tian.

The momentum was fierce, causing the surrounding air to hum.

"My heavens, Ding Yang actually has an immortal sword! Is he crazy? With an immortal sword out, that guy is definitely going to die!"

"It's over. This incident is definitely going to blow up."

Everyone was horrified, as if they could already see Xiang Tian being pierced and torn apart by the immortal sword.

Clang!

To everyone's greater horror, the immensely powerful immortal sword was directly caught in Xiang Tian's hand.

Clearly visible, the black ancient bracelet on Xiang Tian's wrist emitted a soft purple glow, covering his entire hand.

A fierce look flashed in Xiang Tian's eyes. I just wanted to teach you a lesson, but since you're so clueless, don't blame me!

Sword energy shot into the sky, shattering the surroundings!

The tables and chairs made of Longevity Wood were reduced to dust. As the two clashed, the violent spiritual energy forced everyone to use their abilities to defend themselves.

Crack… crackle…

Even amidst the chaos, the distinct sound of shattering reached everyone's ears clearly.

Ding Yang, who was fully channeling his immortal sword, suddenly turned pale and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Before everyone's eyes, the immortal sword was ruthlessly crushed by Xiang Tian!

As the sky-high radiance dissipated, countless fragments of the immortal sword scattered across the ground, devoid of any immortal light. When the world returned to peace, everyone knew that a highly-ranked immortal artifact had just been destroyed!

Gulp…

Many people swallowed hard.

This guy actually crushed Ding Yang's immortal sword with his bare hands!

This was simply outrageous. How could this person in front of them possibly have the ability to crush an immortal weapon?

This was the duel between the second generation, a contest of who had more powerful backing and more impressive treasures!

Clearly, in this round, Xiang Tian had the upper hand.

"You, you actually…"

Ding Yang, with disheveled hair and a crazed look, glared at Xiang Tian but could no longer utter another word.

Xiang Tian ignored him and waved to Little Huang behind him.

"Woof!"

Little Huang obediently ran to Xiang Tian's feet.

"The teeth you've been sharpening these past few days have come in handy. Go get 'em!"

After Xiang Tian spoke, Little Huang bared its teeth, its canine teeth flashing with a cold glint, and lunged at Ding Yang with its mouth wide open.

"Ah!"

The heart-wrenching screams made everyone tremble with fear, and the absurdly bloody scene was too much for anyone to bear.

"Wuwuwu..."

Ding Yang, an Immortal Second Generation at eighteen years old and in the Nascent Soul Realm, was actually crying because a dog bit him.

This made everyone look at him with a mixture of pity and amusement.

Unbeknownst to them, in a magnificent immortal estate far away, a middle-aged man suddenly awoke from his meditation, his eyes filled with rage.

"Why has my son's Life Immortal Sword shattered?"

One had to know how much effort the entire family had put in to refine this sword for Ding Yang, all so he would have a life-saving skill.

And now, at Changning Immortal Academy, how could his Life Immortal Sword possibly break?

Ding Chongshan shattered the bricks and tiles, soaring into the sky, his vast and mighty aura erupting between heaven and earth.

He was a half-step True Immortal, and his fury made the entire Ding Family Immortal Mansion tremble.

This action instantly caused an uproar throughout the entire estate.

"Pass down my order: all those above the Ascension Realm in the Ding family are to rush to Changning Immortal Academy!"

With that, he directly tore through the void and entered.

Within Changning Immortal Academy, Xiang Tian squatted down and patted Ding Yang. "What, you can't endure this little pain? How did you even cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm? Oh, right, sorry, I forgot. Your Flying Sword earlier, it felt like a Life Artifact to me."

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry. I didn't quite control my strength just now and accidentally crushed your Life Artifact. You need to hold on, don't have any accidents. I can't afford to compensate for the life of a young master of the Ding family!"

Xiang Tian's words made everyone present's scalps tingle.

That immortal sword was Ding Yang's Life Artifact!

Good heavens, Ding Yang tried to take his life but failed, and this guy directly crippled eighty percent of Ding Yang's life! And now he's saying something like this, won't this just infuriate Ding Yang to death!

In the path of cultivation, once a Life Artifact is refined, it is connected to one's Great Dao foundation. If the Life Artifact shatters, not only will one's cultivation aptitude plummet, but even one's life might be in danger.

Ding Yang's former lackeys turned deathly pale, their gazes towards Xiang Tian filled with immeasurable terror.

In an instant, people felt the entire Immortal Academy shake a few times, and the spiritual energy in the world began to surge wildly, reaching an extreme state of chaos.

A furious roar echoed through heaven and earth.

"My son Ding Yang, why has his Life Artifact shattered! Old Man Qiu, you get out here and explain!"

Everyone looked out the window in terror. Dark clouds blotted out the sun, and a large contingent of people hovered in the air, their imposing aura palpable!

While trembling with fear, Ding Yang on the ground started to laugh.

"Hehehe, kid, today, I'll see how you run!"

However, his response was a kick from Xiang Tian, utterly merciless, smashing him into a concave dent in the wall. He fell to the ground, unmoving, his life in the balance.

"What kind of trash talks so much!"

Awesome, domineering. This was the only thought in the minds of the students in the classroom. Their elder had already arrived at the Immortal Academy, and you still dared to act like this. You are truly the first person in the academy's history!
