Super God: One Punch and You're Dead

Ryze introduced him with a beaming smile, while Jace kept his gaze fixed straight ahead on Lin Yan.

"I am Jace, the strongest warrior of Super Seminary—bar none."

Ryze was also surprised by Jace's unusual behavior. He was a completely loyal subordinate, a soldier who served the Absolute Command. Why would he ignore him and focus entirely on a young man?

Could it be that Jace, too, sensed the vast, heaven-and-earth-shaking aura emanating from this youth?

"May I ask, Principal! Who is my opponent that I've been summoned here to face?"

"Instructor Jace, your opponent is right beside you."

Ryze was quite satisfied with Jace's entrance. This kind of presence was what a formidable warrior of Earth's defense should have. He intended to use it to intimidate Lin Yan a little.

"Him?!"

Jace looked at the young man.

Calling him a wet-behind-the-ears brat wouldn't be an exaggeration.

This was an insult!

A war god was meant to protect the country, to defend Earth from foreign invasion.

He wasn't here to bully a child.

And with those thin arms and legs, plus a face even more delicate than General Dukao's daughter, Qiangwei—there was no way he could fight this!

"Instructor Jace, heroes come from youth."

Miss said seriously.

Even the usually gentle and amiable Miss showed that rare expression.

As the head instructor of the academy, though Jace felt a chill of respect, he still couldn't help but dismiss this youth in his heart.

Ryze also understood now. Jace's focus wasn't because he'd sensed Lin Yan's aura; this brute wouldn't be perceptive enough to detect such a subtle presence.

But a soldier's duty, besides charging into battle, was to obey orders.

"Jace accepts the mission! I will not fail it."

His military salute was as firm as a mountain.

"So how does this young man want to compete?"

Jace asked in a low, serious tone.

"What are you best at? Or what are you most confident in?"

Lin Yan asked.

"This warhammer of mine can split the sky and shatter the earth. It's worthy of being called a Divine Weapon."

Jace raised his Great Warhammer high. If he used even a fraction of his strength, this building would likely collapse into dust and rubble.

His eyes were full of resolve.

But then he heard Lin Yan say calmly, "Then let's compete in strength."

Ryze was slightly taken aback. He knew Lin Yan's spiritual power was formidable, but he hadn't expected the young man to deliberately avoid his own strength and choose his opponent's advantage instead.

A gentleman!

A spirit of pure righteousness.

He couldn't help but respect Lin Yan even more.

But if Jace really did smash this young prodigy with one hammer blow, wouldn't that be a loss for Super Seminary—no, a loss for the entire Earth?

Or perhaps a loss for the entire Milky Way civilization.

"Are you really sure about competing in strength, Mr. Lin Yan?"

Even Miss couldn't help but widen her eyes. The principal, Ryze, addressed this young man as "Mister." He might have strong spiritual power, but that was all.

Lin Yan smiled faintly.

"Let's finish this quickly. My sister is waiting for me."

"Alright, then let's begin."

Principal Ryze said.

Although this office building was just an ordinary reinforced concrete structure, with the powerful spiritual strength of Miss and Ryze overseeing it, it could at least match Dark Gold-level defenses.

Miss also understood Ryze's intention.

Clearly.

Lin Yan far surpassed his words. He sat calmly in place, completely unmoved.

"Instructor Jace, let's keep this as a sparring match. Our academy's principle is to treat the families of our students well, especially the families of the Super Gene Warriors of the Brave Soldier Company."

Ryze said with a smile.

"Yes, Principal."

Jace looked at the young man before him. Though he didn't think Lin Yan had any real strength, he also didn't take his calm demeanor as a sign of anything meaningful.

He chalked it up to the boldness of a newborn calf that didn't fear tigers.

As an elder, it was time to give the younger generation a taste of the real world.

Teach them a bit of life's lessons.

"I don't usually bully women and children—women and kids are meant to be protected. But since Principal Ryze has asked, I'll make an exception this once."

(PS: To that reader who's been urging updates, thank you for the flowers. I'll definitely add an extra chapter today. The author went to bed a bit early last night, mainly because I kept sweating at night. I looked it up on Baidu, and it said night sweats might be a sign of kidney deficiency. I don't really know what that means, and I don't dare to ask. Figured a good night's sleep might help?)
