The next moment, Tang San's nasal bridge caved in directly, making him look incredibly wretched as blood streamed from his nose and even his front teeth felt loose.
If Yao Xuan had struck with his full strength, his power would have been enough to cause brain death, even if he couldn't shatter Tang San's skull with a single punch.
However, Yao Xuan had no intention of letting Tang San die so easily, so he hadn't gone all out, using less than one-tenth of his strength.
Even so, the gap between Yao Xuan and Tang San was far too vast; a casual punch from Yao Xuan was still enough to make Tang San cry out in agony!
"Come again!"
Looking at Tang San's pained expression, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Yao Xuan's mouth as he strode forward with another long step!
In the next instant, Yao Xuan's figure had already reached Tang San, and he threw a powerful punch, aiming straight for Tang San's stomach without a shred of mercy!
Bang!
Accompanied by Yao Xuan's strike, another dull thud echoed in everyone's ears.
Looking at Tang San, his body was sent flying by the punch, tracing an arc through the air before landing heavily on the ground and rolling several times before finally coming to a stop.
Such a heavy blow made Tang San's internal organs feel as if they were burning, and the intense pain nearly brought tears to his eyes.
As for his stomach, it felt like a churning sea, and with a "wa" sound, he opened his mouth and vomited up most of the lunch he had just eaten, his body curling into a ball from the excruciating pain.
"I thought Tang San was pretty strong, but I didn't expect him to be so fragile!"
"Even if he broke through to become a Spirit Master, a trash spirit is still a trash spirit; when facing a real expert, he can only get beaten up!"
"That's right, this is truly a one-sided beating! Look, Yao Xuan hasn't even used a spirit skill yet!"
Watching Tang San, who was beaten like a dead dog, the surrounding students began to discuss the scene.
The looks they cast toward Tang San no longer held the awe they felt when they learned he had become a Spirit Master, but instead carried a hint of mockery.
Hearing the comments from the crowd, Tang San's face flushed the color of pig liver, and he wished he could kill Yao Xuan on the spot!
However, he also understood that if he relied on conventional means, he was absolutely no match for Yao Xuan!
After all, whether it was attack, defense, or speed, he was completely crushed by Yao Xuan!
What was even more terrifying was that Tang San discovered Yao Xuan's combat experience was extremely seasoned, not at all like that of a six-year-old child.
The suppression of strength and the dominance of experience left Tang San unable to find a way to turn the tables.
However, Tang San did not feel panicked!
Because, aside from normal means, he still had a powerful trump card!
--Tang Sect hidden weapons!
During his spare time helping Tang Hao forge at the blacksmith shop, Tang San had crafted some basic Tang Sect hidden weapons, such as the Hidden Arrow and the Bone-Piercing Nail.
As long as they were used correctly, such weapons could pierce not just flesh and blood, but even thin iron plates!
Originally, Tang San did not intend to use hidden weapons in public.
After all, that might expose his identity, invite suspicion, or even cause trouble.
But now, Tang San knew he had no other choice!
Only by using his hidden weapons could he find a chance to turn the tide!
Although it was a bit dishonorable to win this way, history is written by the victors, and at this moment, he had no other options!
If he didn't use his hidden weapons, he would never be able to recover, only to be beaten by Yao Xuan.
And if that happened, he would definitely become the laughingstock of Nuoding Academy, never able to stand tall in front of Yao Xuan, and never able to win back Xiao Wu's attention!
No matter what, he absolutely could not accept such an outcome!
Thinking of this, Tang San endured the pain in his body and, with his still-functional left hand, reached with difficulty toward the Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges at his waist.
Although Tang San's movements were very subtle, such small actions could not escape Yao Xuan's eyes.
As a transmigrator, Yao Xuan didn't even need to think to guess what Tang San was planning.
This little brat, finding he couldn't beat him, was resorting to dirty tricks, attempting to use those Tang Sect hidden weapons to ambush him.
Naive, far too naive!
If he weren't a transmigrator, perhaps he might have become complacent and truly fallen for Tang San's trap.
Under the threat of Tang San's hidden weapons, he might have been accidentally injured and ultimately suffered a reversal.
However, it was a pity that in this world, there was no such thing as "if"!
The moment he saw Tang San's small movement, he had already seen through all his tricks!
Of course, Yao Xuan was not in the least bit panicked by this!
With Tang San's amateur skills, even using Tang Sect hidden weapons was nothing to fear.
However, Yao Xuan had no intention of stopping Tang San from using his hidden weapons.
Instead, he prepared to play along with the scheme.
He would let Tang San use his hidden weapon on him, and then expose Tang San's sinister true colors in front of everyone!
In this way, for the next few years at Nuoding Academy, Tang San would never be able to hold his head up high!
After all, hidden weapons were low-down, dirty things; who would ever respect someone who used them?
Not to mention, Tang San was using a hidden weapon during a fair duel between spirit masters, which was absolutely a violation of all moral standards!
Having made up his mind, Yao Xuan deliberately stepped toward Tang San.
"Tang San, weren't you shouting quite happily just a moment ago?"
"How about it? Do you understand the gap in our strength now?"
"Look, I'm not a cruel or heartless person. If you kneel down, call me Grandfather, and promise never to have designs on Xiao Wu again, I'll let you go. How about that?"
With a faint smile on his face, Yao Xuan quickly arrived in front of Tang San.
Very good! Closer, come a little closer!
Hearing Yao Xuan's words, Tang San's body trembled with rage once again!
However, he didn't say a word, simply waiting patiently for Yao Xuan to approach!
At the same time, Tang San had already successfully retrieved his Hidden Arrow, hiding it silently within his sleeve and setting it to the firing position!
Very good, this is the distance! I can't miss this opportunity!
Seeing Yao Xuan move even closer, a flash of excitement crossed Tang San's eyes!
Thinking of this, Tang San frantically channeled his spirit power once more!
"Blue Silver Entanglement!"
The yellow spirit ring on his body suddenly flashed, and over a dozen stalks of Blue Silver Grass burst from the soil beneath Yao Xuan's feet, spinning rapidly in the air to bind him tight!
"Hahahaha! It worked! That's what you get for being so careless! Now, go to hell, Yao Xuan!"
Seeing Yao Xuan completely surrounded by the Blue Silver Grass, a look of excitement flashed in Tang San's eyes as he jerked his left arm, triggering the Hidden Arrow inside his sleeve!
Whoosh!
Accompanied by a piercing sound of air being torn apart, an incredibly sharp Hidden Arrow flew straight out from Tang San's sleeve, hurtling toward Yao Xuan's face with terrifying speed!
"Brother Yao Xuan, watch out!"
Watching this scene, Xiao Wu's heart skipped a beat and jumped into her throat; she stared fixedly at Yao Xuan, crying out a warning.
