Catch Up, Until You Can't Even See My Back!

"You and I are as different as cloud and mud!!!"

As those words fell, everyone on the School Field sensed an utterly terrifying aura emerge.

That terrifying aura was filled with the shadow of death and endless annihilation. It was the final annihilation, the end point of everything!

It felt as though they were about to be dragged into that world!

No! There was no world in there! Because even worlds would ultimately be annihilated and destroyed within it!!!

It was the aura of destruction!!!

"NO!!!"

"Waaah... I want my mommy!!!"

"Wuwu, Dad, Dad, I'm scared!!"

A chorus of wailing erupted from outside the School Field. Ye Xuan's aura had terrified them to the depths of their souls.

Throughout the school, even the teachers were too horrified to speak. Some of them had even gone completely blank.

Only the department heads, who were Second Order Creator Gods, fared somewhat better. Even so, their faces were filled with shock. Everyone in the school had been overwhelmed by the aura emanating from Ye Xuan!

And Ye Xuan, who had accomplished all this, had not even revealed his Divine Fire!

Zhang Yuanwu stared at Ye Xuan in utter shock. Even he had been intimidated by Ye Xuan just now. If not for his profound cultivation allowing him to break free instantly, he would likely have been no better off than those teachers.

As for Qin Ji, who was directly facing Ye Xuan, he lay on the ground with a vacant expression, his eyes lifeless. A foul stench wafted from his pants—he had been so frightened that he lost control of his bowels and bladder.

This was terror that struck at the depths of one's soul! This was the intimidation of absolute deathly stillness!

If Ye Xuan had not merely used the destruction-related laws within the Returning Ruins Great Dao, and had instead unleashed Law Power, these people would have vanished before the laws of destruction in an instant, without leaving behind even a trace of their existence...

Among the countless worlds of the Myriad Realms, the unchanging foundation of every world was the rules and laws that formed it.

Within the endless universe, there were innumerable laws and countless rules, yet there were only three thousand Great Daos!

The three thousand Great Daos were the origin of all laws and rules, the origin of all things in the world.

That was why Ye Xuan, who wielded a Great Dao, could crush his opponents so completely, utterly ignoring differences in combat power as he suppressed every teacher and student in the entire school, including teachers whose cultivation realms surpassed his own.

Had he not deliberately restrained himself, every existence in the entire school would have ceased to exist today!!!

"From this day onward, you will forever stare at my back. Eventually, you will not even be able to see it, because you will never again be able to follow in my footsteps!" Ye Xuan's voice was incomparably indifferent.

It was a voice that looked down upon the world, calm and detached. Yet those calm, detached words rendered the entire school silent as death.

No one dared refute him again, because they knew that from this moment on, they would never be able to catch up to the White-Robed Youth before them.

In Qin Ji's eyes,

Ye Xuan was now as invincible as a god. What kind of immense power did one need to possess to suppress him and intimidate the entire school with nothing more than an aura?!

His entire body was still held in place by the laws of destruction. Even though Ye Xuan had long since withdrawn his Great Dao, he still could not move, as though his body no longer belonged to him.

All his former pride was gone. All his glory seemed so laughable in Ye Xuan's eyes.

Using all his strength, he raised his head and glanced at Ye Xuan, who was merely standing there with a faint smile at the corner of his lips. Yet Ye Xuan was like an insurmountable mountain that filled him with despair!

That trace of a smile was so full of mockery and disdain!

It was as though Ye Xuan were laughing at his overestimation of himself! And as though he disdained everyone in the school who had slandered him!

He was so powerful, so despair-inducing!

At that moment, Qin Ji felt as though everyone had seen that he had lost control of his bowels and bladder. He wanted to flee. He feared his classmates' ridicule. Yet he realized that no one was making a sound anymore, and he no longer had the strength to escape.

He could only bury his head deeply in the grass of the School Field, as though that would make everyone overlook him.

Ye Xuan paid no attention to Qin Ji's feelings. He merely swept his gaze around the gathered students.

Wherever his gaze passed, no one dared meet his eyes, afraid that they would fall into those endlessly deep pupils and never be able to escape again.

Those who had once looked down on Ye Xuan, those who had mocked, ridiculed, and questioned him, no longer even had the courage to raise their heads and meet his gaze!

After scanning the crowd, Ye Xuan said indifferently, "We have the same amount of time. You have more than enough time to catch up to me, but on the path of chasing me, you will slowly discover that you are getting farther and farther away from me..."

"Until you cannot even see my back!!!"

As his voice rang out, the power of the Returning Ruins Great Dao erupted once more.

This time, however, it was suppressive rather than assimilating everything around it.

After he finished speaking, he vanished into the crowd.

Only after a long while did Principal Zhang Yuanwu's voice ring out again.

"The winner of the Reaching Heavens Ranking Qualification Battle, Ye Xuan!!!"

After speaking, he looked at the crowd below. They still showed no reaction. He knew that Ye Xuan had utterly shaken them. For the rest of their lives, whenever they spoke of Ye Xuan, they would likely never dare harbor any thought of resisting him again.

"Solving it once and for all is a good choice, but it has also planted an insurmountable figure in all their hearts..."

"Ah, I wonder whether that is good or bad..."

The good was that perhaps some would strive even harder to catch up because of this. The bad was that more people might sink into despair because of it...

The world of Creator Gods was this simple: strength and talent represented everything!

The strong preyed on the weak. The strong remained strong, while the weak remained weak.

Ye Xuan, with a Waste World, had created miracles time and again. Now, his strength surpassed the entire school. Even Qin Ji, once acknowledged as having the greatest talent and combat power, could not withstand even a single move before being suppressed by him!

In his previous battles, he had also used Law Power to suppress everything, crushing his way through—simple, swift, and decisive.

Even with such overwhelming strength, he had not caused his opponents any harm. Clearly, he still held some regard for his fellow students.

As for Qin Ji's Dao heart being shattered, he had brought that upon himself. He had no one else to blame.

And in a situation where others could not see the truth and would misunderstand, believing that he had reached the end through insider dealings, Ye Xuan chose the simplest and most effective method to avoid the rumors and troubles that would come with reaching the top that way.

That was strength!

He used absolute strength to crush everything. While shattering Qin Ji's Dao heart, he also suppressed the entire school in one stroke, silencing every questioning voice and leaving behind only cheers for him!
