He's Just Bullying Xiao Wu Because She's a Cultured Person

"You didn't forget the Whale Rubber, did you?"

Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng crossed his arms and spoke.

"With your current physical strength, once you cultivate to level ten and buy another piece of Thousand-Year Whale Rubber, absorbing a six-hundred-year first ring will be absolutely no problem."

A flicker of excitement flashed in his eyes. "In fact, your second soul ring could even be a thousand-year one!"

"A thousand-year second ring, huh..."

Yu Cheng rubbed his chin, beginning to think.

Without a doubt, he truly had this ability.

However, the lesson of Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng's predecessor was right before his eyes.

For a commoner soul master, having talent that was too monstrous was not a good thing.

In the original story, when Tang San revealed a ten-thousand-year fourth ring during the soul master competition, Salas's first reaction was to kill him.

If it weren't for the protection of his teacher and elders, Tang San would have been taken out long ago.

"Could my own urn beat a Title Douluo?"

Yu Cheng shook his head.

He estimated that once he showed off a thousand-year second ring, he'd either be killed or turned into a lab rat, spending the rest of his life locked in a secret chamber.

"I'll see when the time comes. Right now, I'm just a little soul scholar with level two soul power."

Yu Cheng organized his books and walked out of the library.

Academy life was fulfilling yet monotonous.

Xiao Wu had already returned to the academy, but after several days, Tang San was still nowhere to be seen.

One day, while Yu Cheng was studying in the library, a Work-Study Student hurriedly found him.

"Brother Cheng, something's wrong! Sister Xiao Wu is fighting Xiao Chenyu!"

Yu Cheng's spar with Xiao Wu had ended in a draw, and later he fought Wang Sheng, defeating him in just two or three moves.

Because of this, the Work-Study Students all called him Brother Cheng.

"Finally here."

Yu Cheng closed his book, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

The seven-day agreement between Xiao Chenyu and Wang Sheng.

Because of this matter, he had even taken a palm strike from Liu Long.

"Let's go!"

Yu Cheng circulated his soul power and dashed toward the back mountain of the academy with swift strides.

Inside a small grove.

Dozens of students were split into two camps, tense and ready for a fight.

The Work-Study Students stood behind Xiao Wu, facing over twenty senior students.

Xiao Chenyu's gaze roamed over Xiao Wu, a hint of mischief in his eyes.

"Little girl, if I win this fight, you'll become my pet rabbit."

Because soul masters cultivate soul power, their bodies develop faster.

They tend to mature early when it comes to matters between men and women.

Xiao Chenyu didn't like mature women; instead, he had a particular fondness for innocent young girls.

Xiao Wu's face darkened as she shouted, "If you lose, then I'll be the boss of the academy from now on, and none of the noble students are allowed to bully the Work-Study Students anymore."

The moment her words fell, Yu Cheng's voice rang out from a distance:

"Xiao Wu, why waste words with him? Just go straight for him! He's just bullying you because he thinks you're a cultured person!"

Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice, only to see Yu Cheng already at the front line, glaring at the senior students.

"Yu Cheng, you're here!"

Xiao Wu looked at Yu Cheng, a hint of surprise shining in her beautiful big eyes.

"Brother Cheng!"

The Work-Study Students' confidence surged the moment they saw Yu Cheng.

Yu Cheng's battles in Dorm Seven were still fresh in their minds—his Lime Powder Technique was used with incredible skill.

He had tied with Xiao Wu.

And defeated Wang Sheng in just two or three moves.

He was their undisputed Brother Cheng!

"It's you!"

Xiao Chenyu looked at Yu Cheng, finding him somewhat familiar.

Wasn't this the new student they'd run into on Commercial Street back on opening day?

"Boss, leave this kid to me!"

Liu Long stepped forward.

Liu Long recognized Yu Cheng too, pointing at his nose and shouting, "Back then you had a Soul Master backing you up. Let's see how you handle me today!"

As he spoke, his Soul Power surged, and a staff over a meter long appeared in his hand as his Martial Soul.

Seeing this, Wang Sheng yelled, "Brother Cheng, watch out for his staff. Tool Martial Souls are different from real weapons—they can be recalled and released at will."

He'd fought Liu Long several times, and every time he ended up battered and bruised.

There was no helping it. Before a Beast Martial Soul obtained a soul ring, Martial Soul Possession wasn't possible, so he could only tough it out with his body.

But a Tool Martial Soul was far more flexible to use.

"Hmph, watch my fist!"

Yu Cheng dashed forward in two or three steps, swinging a punch at Liu Long's chest.

"Another brute!"

A hint of mockery flashed in Liu Long's eyes as he raised his Martial Soul with both hands, trying to block the punch.

A Martial Soul reinforced by Soul Power was far harder than a fist.

Liu Long had already planned it out in his mind—first block Yu Cheng's punch with the staff.

Then, to keep him from begging for mercy, the second strike would go straight for his mouth.

But then...

The next moment, Liu Long suddenly felt a sharp pain in his groin, shooting straight to the crown of his head.

His face instantly turned pale as paper, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Ah!"

Liu Long curled up on the ground, his body trembling violently beyond control.

"You..."

Liu Long raised his right hand, pointing shakily at Yu Cheng, unable to get a word out.

"Sss—"

Wang Sheng couldn't help but suck in a sharp breath at Liu Long's miserable state.

"That's gotta hurt."

Another Work-Study Student snickered, "Liu Long's staff probably snapped clean off."

"Yu Cheng really is something—saying 'watch my fist' but then kicking him right there." Xiao Wu covered her face, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help lifting.

"You all..."

Xiao Chenyu looked at the Work-Study Students gloating, his face turning green as heat rushed to his head.

"Everyone, attack together! Avenge Liu Long!"

Liu Long was his classmate and his brother—their families even visited each other during holidays.

The moment his words fell, the senior students charged at the Work-Study Students.

The scene instantly escalated into a brawl.

The Work-Study Students were outnumbered, almost every one of them having to take on two seniors.

"Soft Bone Rabbit, possess!"

Xiao Wu directly revealed her Century-Year Soul Ring.

The next moment, three or four seniors lunged at her.

"Lone Wolf, possess!"

Xiao Chenyu summoned his Martial Soul, a single white soul ring spiraling around him.

Seeing Xiao Wu's Century-Year Soul Ring, a flicker of surprise passed through Xiao Chenyu's eyes.

But the next moment, anger once again consumed his mind.

The arrow had been loosed—there was no turning back!

"Kid, thought about your last words yet?" Xiao Chenyu glared viciously at Yu Cheng.

"Too much talk. Take this—Lime Powder Technique!"

Yu Cheng swung his right hand, and a cloud of white powder exploded in front of Xiao Chenyu's face.

The next moment, he kicked off the ground, sending dirt flying, instantly closing the distance between them.

"Bam bam bam!"

A flurry of fists slammed heavily into Xiao Chenyu's body.

"What a treacherous move!"

Xiao Chenyu channeled his Soul Power, gathering it to his eyes, barely able to make things out.

He picked up his pace a little, lunging toward Yu Cheng.

The two exchanged blows back and forth.

"Your form is off—leave three-tenths of your strength in reserve when you punch..."

"Rhythm, rhythm!"

The spirit body of Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng narrated combat techniques to Yu Cheng.

Listening to Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng's guidance, Yu Cheng's fists grew faster and faster, always attacking from all sorts of tricky angles.

"First Soul Skill, Lone Wolf Assault!"

A roar tore from Xiao Chenyu's throat as his First Soul Ring flared brightly.

"His lower stance is unstable, his center of gravity is too far back—a sliding sweep..."

Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng said.

Yu Cheng swept his leg in a circular kick, striking Xiao Chenyu's calf and tripping him to the ground.

"Pah!"

Xiao Chenyu scrambled up in disgrace, spitting out the grass in his mouth.

"Damn it!"

Xiao Chenyu gasped heavily for air.

A mere commoner, and he could actually suppress him!

He was a Soul Master!

Elsewhere.

Xiao Wu turned her head, her eyes filled with the sight of Yu Cheng.

"Has he been holding back against me all along?"

After acquiring her soul ring, she had wanted to find a chance to fight Yu Cheng and firmly cement her position as the boss.

Now it seemed Yu Cheng was no simple matter.

How could the two of them know that they weren't just facing Yu Cheng? There was also an old-timer—Evil Soul Master Yu Cheng!
