He walked onto the open ground ahead.
Su Tianqi stood only five meters away from him.
Standing opposite him, Su Tianqi tilted his head back slightly, not taking Ye Mu seriously at all.
What did he feel toward Ye Mu?
Probably jealousy!
Being a Library administrator was a cushy job, yet Ye Mu had snatched it away?
Over the years, he had constantly looked for opportunities to deal with Ye Mu, but unfortunately, he had never found one.
Now that the opportunity had finally come, he had to thoroughly humiliate him in this match!
Seeing the two step onto the field, Director Su smiled and said, "This is an exhibition match. Every student must show their full strength, understand?"
"Understood!"
Su Tianqi answered loudly.
Ye Mu merely nodded slightly.
"Good. The exhibition match begins!"
At Director Su's command, Su Tianqi clenched his fists and grinned. "Ye Mu, this time, I'll make you kneel and beg for mercy! Don't worry, I won't kill you, but you must kneel!"
"Gray Wolf Possession!"
The moment he spoke, gray light suddenly erupted from his body.
Su Tianqi's arms lengthened somewhat, and the bones throughout his body crackled.
Gray wolf fur appeared on his arms, while his hands transformed into sharp claws.
The claws were as sharp as daggers, each a full five inches long.
Then, two yellow Spirit Rings rose beneath his feet. Surging Soul Power formed a wave-like pressure that bore down on everyone.
At level twenty-one Soul Power, he truly ranked among the best in a junior academy.
As his Martial Soul Possession took effect and his Spirit Rings appeared,
many students gasped sharply.
Most students' first Spirit Rings were white, ten-year Spirit Rings.
A first Spirit Ring that was a hundred-year Spirit Ring was exceedingly rare.
Su Tianqi's two hundred-year Spirit Rings undoubtedly shocked countless students.
"Ye Mu, I'll give you the chance to use your Martial Soul. Don't say I'm bullying you."
Su Tianqi's voice turned hoarse, as though it contained boundless killing intent.
"Oh? You said that."
Ye Mu smiled.
The Gray Wolf Martial Soul was a beast Martial Soul. The Su Family bloodline was all like this, and those who awakened usually possessed Gray Wolf Martial Souls.
In many people's eyes, the Gray Wolf Martial Soul was also a powerful beast Martial Soul with formidable destructive power.
But to the current Ye Mu, Su Tianqi's little bit of strength was nothing.
"Wordless Heavenly Book!"
Ye Mu stretched out his left hand. Starlight flickered in his palm as the Wordless Heavenly Book Martial Soul appeared.
The ancient scroll unfolded to over ten feet wide, its mysterious black cover bearing dark-gold seal patterns.
Golden threads intertwined into star-track patterns across its pages, while its corners were speckled with ink-gold crystals. When driven by Soul Power, it emitted a faint pale-gold glow carrying an ineffable aura.
The instant the Martial Soul appeared, many students were left somewhat bewildered.
"Is that his Martial Soul?"
"It feels so powerful, but I remember his Martial Soul wasn't like this before. What happened?"
"Wordless Heavenly Book? What kind of Martial Soul is that? It feels so strange."
The teachers and students present actually knew Ye Mu quite well.
He had been the weakest student, so it was hard not to know him.
They all knew his Martial Soul was a book, but they never expected it to be like this.
When Su Tianqi saw the Wordless Heavenly Book, he frowned and snorted. "All show and no substance. Later, I'll tear your worthless book to pieces!"
"Is that so?"
Ye Mu smiled faintly as a yellow Spirit Ring rose beneath his feet.
When the Spirit Ring appeared, even more people on the scene were dumbfounded.
"A hundred-year Spirit Ring?"
"No, his Soul Power is at least above level ten. Didn't they say it was half a level?"
"What exactly is going on?"
Even the principal was bewildered.
Everyone had acknowledged that he possessed only half a level of Soul Power, yet it had suddenly surged past level ten.
Moreover, his first Spirit Ring felt far from ordinary. It was absolutely not an ordinary hundred-year Spirit Ring.
This quality... it's probably close to a thousand years! But how is that possible?
The principal was, after all, highly knowledgeable. The moment he saw the Spirit Ring, he identified it.
A hundred-year Spirit Ring of this quality was absolutely far superior to Su Tianqi's.
It was even far more astonishing than Su Tianqi's second Spirit Ring.
How had a student once considered trash suddenly risen to prominence?
Leaving everything else aside, this first Spirit Ring alone was enough for him to graduate exceptionally early!
"Su Tianqi, begin!"
Ye Mu's voice turned cold.
Since the other party wanted to humiliate him, there was nothing left to say.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!
"Don't get cocky!"
Su Tianqi roared and suddenly charged forward.
His first Spirit Ring lit up.
"First Soul Skill: Gray Wolf Dash!"
The moment he spoke, his speed abruptly soared.
He was as fast as lightning, his claws slashing fiercely forward.
Streaks of light flashed past, blade-like shadows seeming to surround Ye Mu.
"You're dead!"
Madness and cruelty flashed in Su Tianqi's eyes.
Yet Ye Mu merely raised his hand, and the Wordless Heavenly Book wrapped around him.
Clang! Clang! Clang!!!
The blade shadows struck the Wordless Heavenly Book, producing a series of crisp rings.
The Wordless Heavenly Book did not budge, while several of Su Tianqi's claws snapped.
"This... is impossible!"
After that round of attacks, Su Tianqi raised his hand and stared at his claws in disbelief.
"Finished attacking? Then it's my turn."
"Lone Smoke in the Desert!"
Ye Mu did not want to give him too much time to show off. It would be better to end this quickly.
His first Spirit Ring lit up, and dozens of Ink Smoke Sword Qi suddenly shot from the scroll.
They were faster than Su Tianqi, reaching him in almost the blink of an eye.
Su Tianqi's pupils contracted sharply. It was already too late to retreat, so he could only unleash his second soul skill.
"Second soul skill: Blood Bite!"
A massive blood-red wolf suddenly condensed in front of him.
The blood-red giant wolf lunged at the Ink Smoke Sword Qi, opening its gaping maw.
However, with a single wet piercing sound, the blood-red giant wolf was instantly pierced through and dissolved into specks of light.
The remaining Ink Smoke Sword Qi did not weaken as it continued attacking Su Tianqi.
Su Tianqi was truly terrified. As he retreated, he stumbled and fell onto the ground.
Then, the Ink Smoke Sword Qi pierced through his shoulders, legs, and abdomen.
"Tianqi!"
Director Su on the platform had realized something was wrong the moment the Ink Smoke Sword Qi shattered the blood-red giant wolf, and he immediately rushed over.
Unfortunately, he was still too late.
The Ink Smoke Sword Qi was too fast, so fast that he had no time to intercept it.
He could only watch helplessly as Su Tianqi was pierced through by sword qi and collapsed onto the ground, blood flowing everywhere.
He pounced forward and pulled him into his arms, glaring furiously at Ye Mu.
His eyes held anger, shock, and suspicion.
How could a piece of trash possibly defeat his own nephew so decisively and cleanly?
He had done it with only one move!
"This is only an exhibition match, yet you actually struck to kill! What a vicious heart!"
Director Su gritted his teeth.
Yet Ye Mu said calmly, "Struck to kill? Sorry, I didn't expect him to be so weak. He talked such a big game, so I thought he actually had some skill. Besides, wasn't he the one who struck to kill?"
"You still dare argue! At such a young age, you already have such a vicious mind. Leaving you alive will only bring disaster. I'll slaughter you today!"
Director Su roared as he set Su Tianqi down. Soul Power surged, and four Spirit Rings rose beneath his feet.
