Kicking a Steel Plate
"Just came from the Outer Academy. I know you're arrogant, but sometimes you can't just say things carelessly, you know? This is just a lesson. Remember, don't be too cocky next time. When you come to the Inner Academy, if you're a dragon, you'd better coil up; if you're a tiger, you'd better lie down obediently. This is what we senior students have learned through countless hardships. I'm giving it to you today!" The senior student said with a grin in the young man's ear.
The senior student immediately punched the young man in the face again, knocking him to the ground, his head covered in blood, looking extremely miserable. "If you don't want to be beaten again, take out the Fire Energy Card, understand?"
The others were immediately taken aback by this scene. The senior students' bloody methods had completely intimidated them, and they dared not resist in any way. Finally, after gritting their teeth, they prepared to take out their Fire Energy Card.
Just then, another flippant and teasing voice came from the side. "I also want to know whether I should sit cross-legged or prone in the Inner Academy. I hope the senior students can give me some pointers?"
"Who?" The young man with the scar on his face was startled and shouted angrily to the side.
Everyone was drawn by the sound and looked up to see a black figure appear on the branches of the giant tree. The five people from the Outer Academy were delighted to see the figure, for it was none other than the lone traveler Xiao Yu.
Just now, as he was heading north, his keen Soul Power sensed the sounds of fighting coming from this direction. He rushed over and saw this scene: the Inner Academy bullying the Outer Academy.
The young man with the scar on his face narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Xiao Yu in the tree, and chuckled, "A freshman? I must say, you're quite arrogant. I remember you were the first place winner in this year's Outer Academy selection competition, right? I've never actually stepped on a first-place winner before. I hope you can grant my wish!"
The other senior students following the young man burst into laughter. The freshmen from the Outer Academy were also slightly taken aback, then realized that no matter how strong Xiao Yu was, he was still just one person, while they were facing five senior students from the Inner Academy. Weren't they just courting death?
A slight smile appeared on Xiao Yu's lips, but his eyes were icy cold. It seemed the Inner Academy truly showed no mercy to the Outer Academy. They all came from the Outer Academy, so why be so ruthless?
Unfortunately, these senior students from the Inner Academy had no idea what kind of formidable obstacle they were about to encounter!
Xiao Yu moved slightly, and his ghostly figure appeared in front of the young man with eight horizontal lines on his face in the blink of an eye. The speed was so fast that a look of horror rose in the eyes of the old man, who wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
Xiao Yu clenched his right fist, a faint blue Dou Qi swirling around it. He slammed his fist into the young man's stomach with a bang, even faster than the people who had walked through the Outer Academy before. With a loud crash, the young man slammed heavily into the giant tree.
Before the other four senior students could react, Xiao Yu channeled his Dou Qi and used his fists and feet to kick them all away. The explosive speed created a loud bang in the air, and he instantly arrived in front of the young man with the scar on his face.
Xiao Yu pressed his foot against the man's face and said contemptuously, "Is that what you just said?"
The man's face flushed red, but Xiao Yu's kick had rendered him powerless to resist. He could only stare at Xiao Yu with wide eyes. "Hmm? You seem quite unconvinced?" As he spoke, Xiao Yu's Dou Ling aura erupted, enveloping everyone around him with an extremely oppressive aura. Whether they were from the Inner Academy or Outer Academy, their minds were completely blank at this moment!
"A... Dou Ling expert?" a freshman from the Outer Academy exclaimed in shock.
The man trampled under Xiao Yu's feet was filled with horror and disbelief. Only then did he realize the enormity of the trouble he had gotten himself into. His strength as Dou Ling was enough to earn him a place on the Inner Academy's Strong Ranking. What was even more terrifying was that he felt the oppressive force emanating from Xiao Yu, the kind that comes from the top five on the Strong Ranking!
"Hand over the Fire Energy, so you don't have to suffer any more pain later. But since you've already suffered so much, I can practice a bit more. Hang in there, I'll get it myself later!" As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yu raised his fist, which was as big as a casserole dish, ready to smash it into them.
The man at Xiao Yu's feet was terrified. This punch would be fatal; he would be crippled if not killed!
"Wait, wait! Hold on!" the man shouted. It was truly rare to see someone shout so loudly while being trampled underfoot!
Xiao Yu's fist, carrying a gust of wind, stopped less than an inch from the man's face. "What? You can't even hold on?"
Hearing Xiao Yu's teasing voice, the faces of the other four senior students around him immediately turned red. Just now they had said that they had learned from countless painful experiences, but how long had it been? They had already suffered physical pain again, and this time it was from a freshman from the Outer Academy!
Xiao Yu heard the pleas for mercy and removed his foot from the man's face. The scarred young man breathed a sigh of relief and flipped his hand, revealing a light blue card in his palm.
Xiao Yu could clearly see the bright red number forty-seven drawn on the card, and the young man handed it over with a pained expression.
Xiao Yu slowly shook his head and said, "No need."
Upon hearing this, the young man's face lit up with joy. Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Yu handed him his black card, saying, "Transfer the Fire Energy from your card to mine, and teach me how to use it!"
The young man's face immediately fell. Good heavens, not only did he have to hand over his Fire Energy, but he also had to personally give it over and teach this new student!
However, due to Xiao Yu's imposing presence, he had no choice but to submit. He took Xiao Yu's card, then clasped his hands together with his own card, and twisted them together violently. The two cards flashed with light, and Xiao Yu could see that his black card instantly gained forty-one units of Fire Energy!
Xiao Yu was well aware that this thing needed to retain basic Fire Energy. The basic Fire Energy of these senior students was seven, while that of the freshmen was two. Although he knew this, Xiao Yu could now openly seize the Fire Energy of the other senior students!
Xiao Yu took the black card, his intimidating dark eyes sweeping over the other four. They also looked distressed; although they knew they couldn't escape it, they still felt a pang of heartache when it actually happened!
Xiao Yu took the cards from these people and, following their example, scribbled the Fire Energy their cards cleanly. This scene made the freshmen feel much more relieved!
After Xiao Yu removed the Fire Energy from these people's hands, the Fire Energy his black card jumped to a high of 173.
Upon seeing this number, a happy smile finally appeared on Xiao Yu's lips, but to the older students, this smile was like a demon, filling them with fear!
