The battle gradually reached a fever pitch, and students were constantly being knocked down.
"Tang San is here."
Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng suddenly spoke.
Yu Cheng nodded. "Begin."
Heaven Tier Battle Skill, Ghost Possession!
The next moment, Yu Cheng felt a surge of Soul Power erupt within him.
His strength increased.
His body became lighter.
His reaction speed had improved by an unknown number of times!
Most strangely, his perspective shifted—watching someone else control his body felt just like playing a console game.
However, Yu Cheng discovered that with a single thought, he could regain control of his body.
This was his long-planned scheme against the City Lord's Mansion.
During the brawl, he would beat Xiao Chenyu until he suffered internal bleeding, then pin the blame on Tang San and make them tear each other apart.
With Yu Cheng's current strength, he could not pull it off flawlessly.
So, he could only use a cheat!
Bang!
Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng threw a punch.
Xiao Chenyu's chest took a heavy blow. Stars burst before his eyes, and he staggered back several steps before collapsing to the ground.
"Damn it, I was actually knocked down by a commoner."
"I'm a Soul Master!"
"I absolutely can't lose!"
Xiao Chenyu took a deep breath, unsteadily pushed himself up, and wiped the dirt from the corner of his mouth.
"Ling Feng, come help me!"
Xiao Chenyu shouted loudly.
By then, nearly all the Work-Study Students had been knocked down. Only Yu Cheng, Xiao Wu, and Wang Sheng were still barely holding on.
Ganging up on others was Xiao Chenyu's specialty!
Yet the next moment, Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng went offline.
Yu Cheng immediately felt empty inside. The sudden loss of power left him terribly uncomfortable, and he too fell to the ground.
"Hahaha."
Seeing this, Xiao Chenyu burst into laughter. "So you ran out of strength long ago and were just forcing yourself to hold on! Ling Feng, cripple him for me!"
"Yes!"
Ling Feng's martial soul was some kind of bird, and he was incredibly fast. Within a few breaths, he rushed before Yu Cheng.
"Stop!"
Just then, a small stone struck Ling Feng on the head.
"Ah!"
Ling Feng let out a scream.
Everyone turned to look and saw Tang San standing atop a large rock.
"Another Work-Study Student? Take him down for me!"
Xiao Chenyu shouted his command.
Two students flanked Tang San from the left and right.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The next moment, two stones shot rapidly from Tang San's hand.
They struck the two students in the calves, sending them straight to the ground.
"Go! All of you, get him!"
Xiao Chenyu screamed hysterically.
Facing the several people closing in on him, Tang San's gaze sharpened. A yellow Soul Ring emerged and revolved around him.
At the same time, his palms turned white, and his eyes were covered in a layer of purple.
Soul Ring.
Mysterious Jade Hand.
Purple Demon Eye.
These were nearly all of Tang San's methods.
The third rule of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record: "Once you determine that an opponent is an enemy, if they deserve death, show no mercy. Otherwise, you will only bring trouble upon yourself."
Whoosh!
The next moment, Tang San stepped forward, and his body instantly retreated two or three meters.
Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
His hands swept rapidly past his waist. With every strike, a senior student fell.
"Bastard!"
Watching the students continuously fall, Xiao Chenyu was furious beyond measure.
His First Soul Ring flashed, and he charged directly at Tang San.
Tang San narrowed his eyes. Soul Power surged, and more than ten thick stalks of Blue Silver Grass spiraled upward, tightly binding Xiao Chenyu's legs.
"First Soul Skill, Blue Silver Bind!"
"What is this?" Xiao Chenyu cried out in shock.
He tried to struggle free, but the Blue Silver Grass was exceptionally tough. No matter how hard he exerted himself, he could not break loose.
Tang San rushed up to Xiao Chenyu and drove his right fist straight at his face.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me! I surrender!"
Xiao Chenyu instinctively shut his eyes and shouted.
Tang San paused, drawing back his attack.
"Tang San, don't hold back!"
Yu Cheng shouted.
"Xiao Chenyu said he wanted to keep Xiao Wu as a pet rabbit and sell you to a brothel. Some nobles favor men and like skinny boys like you."
"Bastard!"
Tang San's eyes turned crimson, and he panted like a bull.
Xiao Chenyu still wanted to explain, but the next moment, Tang San's fist had already smashed into his face.
Nuoding Academy.
The battle between the Work-Study Students and the noble students was over, but the uproar it caused was far from finished.
Two Soul Masters had emerged among the Work-Study Students.
And both were first-years.
Tang San and Xiao Wu's names spread through Nuoding Academy like the wind.
There was also a Lime Battle God, whose reputation was no small matter.
"Third Brother!"
"Hello, Third Brother!"
At the academy entrance, several noble students saw Tang San approaching and hurriedly bowed in greeting.
"Mm."
Tang San glanced at them and gave a slight nod.
"Is that Tang San?"
"I heard he defeated more than ten senior students by himself. He looks so thin and weak—looks really can be deceiving."
"Why did I hear that he defeated fifty people?"
Hearing the discussion behind him, Tang San could not help but curl his lips upward.
So this was what it felt like to be admired?
In his previous life, he had only been an outer disciple of the Tang Sect. Even after mastering the Mysterious Heaven Skill, he had lived furtively every day, afraid others would discover that he had stolen the cultivation method.
But now...
Tang San felt the surging Soul Power within him. He clenched his fists tightly, forcibly suppressing the urge to jump up.
This felt really good!
City Lord's Mansion.
Xiao Chenyu lay on the bed, his face pale as paper.
A Healing Type Soul Master stood nearby, continuously using soul skills.
His brow was tightly furrowed, and beads of sweat the size of beans seeped from his face.
Xiao Dachuan sat not far away.
Watching his son groan painfully on the bed, his expression grew increasingly grim.
Xiao Chenyu usually caused trouble and brought him no end of problems, but he was still his biological son.
And now, Xiao Chenyu had been beaten into this state.
If the headmaster of Nuoding Academy had not been a powerful Soul Ancestor, Xiao Dachuan would already have gone there to demand an explanation.
Soon, the Healing Type Soul Master stopped casting his skill.
"Mr. Bai, how is my son?"
Xiao Dachuan asked anxiously.
Mr. Bai was a Healing Type Soul Elder whom he had specifically invited from Fasnuo City.
A small place like Nuoding City did not have any Healing Type Soul Masters.
"Alas, severe internal bleeding. More importantly, too much time has passed. City Lord Xiao, prepare for his funeral."
Mr. Bai sighed.
"What!"
Xiao Dachuan felt as though he had been struck by lightning.
His body went rigid as he fell backward to the ground, numb all over and unable to move.
"City Lord Xiao, are you all right?"
Mr. Bai helped Xiao Dachuan up and shouted anxiously.
It would have been one thing if he failed to cure Xiao Chenyu, but if something happened to Xiao Dachuan as well, his reputation would be ruined.
"Phew..."
Xiao Dachuan took a deep breath.
"Thank you for making this trip, Mr. Bai. Someone, see our guest out."
After Mr. Bai left the mansion, Xiao Dachuan could no longer suppress the grief and fury in his heart.
Smack!
He slammed his palm onto the table, scattering the tea set across the floor.
"Someone!"
"Notify the City Guard Commanders. Go to Nuoding Academy!"
