A Pair of Prodigies From One Family

Chapter 22: One Academy, Two Prodigies (Bonus Chapter Requesting Recommendations and Favorites)

Liu Yang said no more, his hatred for Mu Yuan almost palpable. His body exploded forward, shooting directly at Mu Yuan.

A terrifying spiritual pressure descended upon Mu Yuan like Mount Tai.

Swish!

Liu Yang moved with incredible speed, appearing in front of Mu Yuan almost instantly.

He raised one hand, fiery spiritual energy condensing, his palm print boiling like a scorching sun, ferociously blinding.

"Blazing Sun Palm!"

Then, Liu Yang roared violently, his palm print, condensed to the peak of spiritual energy, striking down at Mu Yuan without mercy.

Suddenly, almost all the surrounding onlookers felt as if their minds were being engulfed by magma, their spirits instantly on the verge of ignition.

Wild and untamed spiritual energy spread from Liu Yang's palm print, completely enveloping the surroundings, so oppressive it brought thoughts to a near standstill.

So strong!

The fully unleashed Liu Yang was truly powerful!

Although Liu Yang's palm print was locked onto Mu Yuan, they could feel a sense of annihilation, as if this palm strike could obliterate everything.

Liu Yang's ability to repeatedly claim the top spot in the Earth Tier was no mere reputation.

However, Mu Yuan's pair of black eyes showed no panic, remaining perfectly calm.

Only the playful curve at the corner of his mouth widened further.

Undeniably, this palm strike was enough to instantly kill any early-stage Spiritual Movement Realm expert.

"Unfortunately, in my eyes, you're still trash!"

Mu Yuan's faint, disdainful voice rippled out, so sudden and without warning.

And at the same instant, golden specks of light suddenly illuminated Mu Yuan's body.

The golden specks scattered across Mu Yuan's body connected, forming an anomaly similar to what Liu Yang had displayed when activating his Spiritual Veins.

However, Mu Yuan's anomaly was like the bright moon.

Boom!

The spiritual energy in the world roared and surged into Mu Yuan's body.

Everyone watched with shocked expressions as Mu Yuan cupped his hands in front of him, as if holding the sun and moon in his palms. Golden divine light radiated from him, filled with holy-like spiritual energy. The vastness of it seemed capable of crushing mountains.

"This... this is a Spiritual Vein?!!!"

On the high seats, Master Xi's eyes widened, staring intently at Mu Yuan.

With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that this Spiritual Vein was of a higher grade than Liu Yang's.

The speed at which it absorbed spiritual energy was likely on par with an Earth-grade Spiritual Vein.

"This kid!"

Master Mo no longer knew how to describe his feelings.

The surprises Mu Yuan brought were continuous.

An Earth-grade Spiritual Vein! Even within the Five Great Academies, he was a top-tier genius.

This also explained why Mu Yuan had been able to advance so rapidly in such a short time. It was likely related to the Spiritual Veins within him that he couldn't sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for the previous three years.

Even Dean Xiao, who had always remained calm, was filled with disbelief. He knew Mu Yuan had trump cards, but he never expected them to be so astonishing.

"So Brother Yuan also has Spiritual Veins!"

A wave of astonished clamor erupted from the surrounding spectator stands.

At the same time, a formidable spiritual pressure emanated from Mu Yuan.

That spiritual pressure had clearly reached the true mid-stage Spiritual Movement Realm.

"We all underestimated this kid!"

In the West Courtyard's seating area, the students from the West Courtyard Heaven Tier also wore solemn expressions. Mid-stage Spiritual Movement Realm strength could rank quite high even within the Northern Spiritual Academy's Heaven Tier. They couldn't help but sigh inwardly that a mere Earth Tier student could now achieve this.

Liu Mu Bai's handsome face showed little reaction; he simply gazed at the arena with a placid expression, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

Golden spiritual energy enveloped Mu Yuan's entire right arm as he fiercely threw a punch.

It was still the Collapsing Fist.

However, after Mu Yuan utilized the power of two Dragon Elephants and his Divine Veins, its might was no longer comparable to before.

Bang!

Amidst the deafening roar that pierced the soul, Mu Yuan and Liu Yang's fists and palms clashed.

Crack!

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Liu Yang's palm strike was forcefully shattered by a single punch.

The pride and cruelty on Liu Yang's face turned into disbelief.

That wasn't all.

Mu Yuan's fist continued forward!!!

In that instant, Liu Yang clearly felt the shadow of death looming over him. He stood there, frozen and completely at a loss, his mind a complete blank.

However.

Ultimately, Mu Yuan's fist stopped a mere centimeter away from him.

Liu Yang could feel the terrifying gust of wind from the punch and was absolutely certain that if Mu Yuan's fist had landed, he would have died.

Suddenly, a deathly pallor washed over him. Then, his body bent over, and with a splurt, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

This scene immediately caused an uproar around the spectator stands.

Liu Yang lost!

"Brother Yuan won!"

"Brother Yuan is mighty!"

"Haha, our East Courtyard has finally secured first place in the Earth Tier!"

On the East Courtyard's side, Su Ling and the others stared blankly at the scene, then filled with unparalleled excitement.

In contrast, the West Courtyard fell into silence.

Even the proud Liu Yang had been defeated, meaning their West Courtyard had truly lost to the East Courtyard this time.

Mu Yuan and Xue Dong from the West Courtyard's Earth Tier trembled, staring intently at Mu Yuan on the stage, filled with boundless fear.

How... how could this guy be so powerful?!

They had initially thought he was only in the early stage of the Spiritual Movement Realm, but they hadn't expected him to possess Spiritual Veins, and even Liu Yang had been defeated.

They had even provoked this guy before!

Thinking back now... their scalps were tingling with dread.

Hong Ling's beautiful eyes dimmed slightly, and a pang of sadness struck her.

Was her decision truly the right one?

Tong Guan was completely crestfallen, only managing to gasp for air in large gulps.

If he didn't breathe so heavily, he felt like he would suffocate!

This guy had actually grown to a level comparable to his own strength.

It was truly terrifying!!!

On the stage, hearing the deafening cheers from the East Courtyard, Mu Yuan smiled faintly. He then looked at Liu Yang and said, "No need to fight anymore, right?"

Liu Yang was completely speechless now. Having just walked back from the brink of death, his entire body was covered in cold sweat, and his legs were so weak he almost fell to his knees.

"Your pride is nothing special. You can't even defeat me, and you still want to fight my little Mu."

Mu Yuan said with disdain, then called out, "Little Mu, show him your strength."

Mu Chen nodded slightly, stood up, and walked down from the seating area.

The moment he stepped onto the stage, dark spiritual energy surged violently from his body, accompanied by a spiritual pressure no weaker than Mu Yuan's.

"This spiritual energy's power..."

Dean Xiao and Master Mo's faces were instantly filled with surprise.

"Mid-stage Spiritual Movement Realm!"

The spectator stands once again fell into silence.

Unlike Mu Yuan's spiritual pressure, which was from the early stage of the Spiritual Movement Realm, this was the true cultivation of the mid-stage Spiritual Movement Realm.

After all, Mu Yuan himself was only in the early stage of the Spiritual Movement Realm, and he could only unleash such power by activating his Spiritual Veins.
