Qin He, Are You Afraid?

On the arena stage, while the match raged fiercely, the other six members of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation sat in the resting area by the side, chatting as if no one else were around. Clearly, they had not taken the battle before them seriously at all.

"So this is all Notting Academy has? What a disappointment!"

Beside them, Hu Liena yawned. Her seductive eyes swept across the venue, but she did not spot Qin He anywhere, leaving her somewhat disappointed.

"Heh, they're merely struggling before death! Notting Academy's overall strength is so poor. That much-hyped Qin He is probably nothing special either!"

Xie Yue mocked disdainfully, clearly not taking Qin He seriously.

"Brother Xie Yue is right. I'd say Qin He didn't dare take the stage because he's afraid of Spirit Hall!"

"Good thing Qin He knows what's good for him and hid early! If he came on stage and lost as completely as those earlier guys, wouldn't that be utterly humiliating?"

These members of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation were obviously still young and did not understand the importance of sparing others' dignity. Whatever they thought, they said outright.

Their undisguised contempt made everyone from Notting Academy flush bright red with anger!

"They've gone too far! These little brats from Spirit Hall are worlds apart from Boss Qin!"

Xiao Chenyu spoke indignantly from the side, his tone carrying little awe for Spirit Hall's favored prodigies.

These little brats from Spirit Hall only knew how to show off. How could they possibly understand that what Boss Qin wanted was far beyond anything they could imagine!

Fame and profit?

Those were merely childish pursuits. Too childish. Breathing the same air as trash like you from Spirit Hall is practically lowering our IQ!

Was the average education level of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation prenatal education?

"That's true. The people from Spirit Hall really do seem a little lacking in intelligence!"

The others from Dorm Six nodded in deep agreement.

Once upon a time, they had been just like these little brats from Spirit Hall, knowing only how to fight over petty jealousies and stir up trouble everywhere.

But now, they had learned so much from Boss Qin He and understood what strategy truly was!

These little brats from Spirit Hall were far too crude. What villain would be like them, practically writing the word 'villain' across their faces?

Their road had narrowed, hadn't it?

"I am Tang San, a Level 15 Soul Master. My spirit is Blue Silver Grass!"

At that moment, it was Tang San's turn on Notting Academy's side of the arena.

When his opponent heard him announce his spirit, disappointment immediately appeared on everyone's faces.

"Haha, mere Blue Silver Grass, a Trash Spirit, and you dare take the stage? Does Notting Academy have no one left?"

On the arena stage, Ling Ri had already won five matches in a row and was becoming increasingly smug. When he saw Tang San step forward with the universally acknowledged Blue Silver Grass spirit, he looked at him with even greater disdain.

"Heh, this is an Exchange Meeting. The focus is on exchange, so please go easy on me, big brother!"

Tang San smiled amiably, looking completely harmless.

Although Qin He had thoroughly beaten him before, Tang San had also learned many things from Qin He.

For example, Qin He was clearly so powerful, yet he constantly claimed to have an ordinary spirit. That was an extremely brilliant battle strategy!

Pretend to be weak, wait until the opponent let down their guard, then strike with thunderous force in an instant. It was simply exquisite!

"Ling Ri, be careful! Tang San is someone Qin He has praised, and he also uses hidden weapons. Don't let your guard down and lose!"

Just then, Hu Liena's light voice exploded beside Ling Ri's ear from below the stage, making him shudder at once!

"How sinister! I almost fell for it!"

Ling Ri's gaze immediately turned wary as he looked toward Tang San's back.

"Damn it! That female devil from Spirit Hall is really screwing me over!"

Tang San was just about to draw his hidden weapons when his plan was exposed on the spot. He was so furious he nearly coughed up blood!

The Tang Sect's hidden weapons were unpredictable and astonishingly powerful.

With his hidden weapons, Tang San had been quite confident in facing Ling Ri.

However!

Once his opponent became alert, it would not be nearly so easy to injure him with hidden weapons!

Dragon Beard Needles!

With the arrow on the string, he had no choice but to fire. Tang San circulated the Mysterious Heaven Technique and flicked his right hand. Dozens of cow-hair-thin needles shot out in an instant!

The Dragon Beard Needles required precious materials, made from Sheet Gold Hair Crystal within crystal. They were incredibly sharp and could be concealed between one's fingers, making them difficult to detect when released.

Once Dragon Beard Needles entered the human body, they curled up and twisted the muscles. They required a special method to remove and were especially effective at piercing inner protective force. Against Ling Ri, whose Soul Power was not high, they were even more devastating!

However, because he had been warned, Ling Ri reacted the instant Tang San attacked!

With a twist of his body, he was still struck by one Dragon Beard Needle, but he dodged the vast majority of them!

"Pfft!"

A spray of blood burst forth, and Ling Ri's face instantly turned extremely ugly.

He had actually been injured?

That hidden weapon was so terrifying. Even with a warning, he had still been hit!

If Hu Liena had not reminded him just now, and he had been careless, he, Ling Ri, might have lost the match!

"Ah, what a pity!"

On the elevated platform, Headmaster Zhao Chong could not help shaking his head.

He had originally thought Tang San would at least manage to defeat one opponent!

Now, it seemed he could only injure Ling Ri a little at most.

Even so, Tang San had performed the best so far. He was still a new lower-grade student, and reaching this point was already exceedingly rare.

"Being able to injure Ling Ri means Little San has done quite well! Even Qin He could probably do no better than this!"

Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang shook his head from the side as well.

Spirit Hall had gathered the elite geniuses of the entire continent!

Meanwhile, Nuo Ding City was merely a small city. Even if it had geniuses, they would have long been recruited by better academies. How could it possibly compare with Spirit Hall?

Young Lord Qin He might be able to do it, but he had not yet obtained a soul ring. He was only Level 10 now.

"Use your full strength!"

Below the stage, Hu Liena continued to remind him.

Ling Ri's face darkened like the bottom of a pot. The way he looked at Tang San also became rather unfriendly.

First Soul Skill, Raging Inferno!

Red light glowed in Ling Ri's eyes. In the next instant, an enormous mass of flames surrounded Tang San with lightning speed!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Tang San retreated several steps in succession, and several parts of his academy uniform were torn apart as well!

"I concede!"

Tang San stared at his opponent in disbelief, his face flushed red.

The Dragon Beard Needles were extremely precious. Every one he used meant one less.

Even after using a trump card like the Dragon Beard Needles, he had still lost to Ling Ri. Spirit Hall's strength was simply too terrifying!!

Tang San felt deeply frustrated.

As Tang San conceded, the atmosphere throughout Notting Academy instantly sank into gloom.
