Come Beat Me

"How could it be her?!"

Inside the Crown Prince's Mansion in Heaven Dou City.

Qian Renxue had finally waited for the reveal of the number one spot on the Genius Ranking.

But when she saw the face on the Sky Screen—a face that had left a deep impression on her—the white jade teacup she was clutching tightly clattered to the floor and shattered into pieces.

She had met Stelle twice.

The first time, she saw her rummaging through a trash can.

The Xue Qinghe she portrayed was a gentle and refined crown prince, destined to rule the entire Heaven Dou Empire one day.

Seeing someone scavenging for trash in such a prosperous district of Heaven Dou City, she had stepped forward to offer Stelle some money.

Stelle had accepted the money with great joy at the time.

But the moment she took the money, she turned around and dove right back into the nearby trash can to keep digging.

This made Qian Renxue feel instantly provoked, convinced that this Stelle was just playing her for a fool!

That experience had left her with an exceptionally deep impression of Stelle.

The second time she saw Stelle was in the Sunset Forest.

She had witnessed with her own eyes Stelle actually stealing food from an Earth Spirit Beast.

It was a type of deep red soil.

Would a normal person eat that? Even out of curiosity, it was impossible!

Now, seeing this Stelle on the Sky Screen, Qian Renxue felt it was inconceivable, her heart filled with disbelief.

This girl, who scavenged for trash and acted somewhat neurotic, was actually the existence that had suppressed all the geniuses of the Douluo Continent to rank first!

What she found even more incredible was the age listed next to Stelle's name—it was actually only two and a half years old?!

Are you telling me that a girl this tall and well-developed is only two-something?

The hell is this two and a half?!

Are you sure it isn't twenty-five?

Did the Sky Screen accidentally add a decimal point?

Stelle had been quite active in Heaven Dou City lately.

She was pretty, loved to scavenge for trash, jumped around the streets, and shouted from rooftops.

It was hard not to notice her.

When they saw Stelle ranked first on the Genius Ranking, those who knew her were stunned into silence.

Inside Martial Soul Hall.

Qian Daoliu watched the Stelle on the Sky Screen, his face full of confusion; he did not recognize this person.

But when he saw the age listed behind Stelle, his usually majestic eyes instantly filled with sympathy and affection.

A normal child of two and a half could never grow to such a size.

Something special must have happened to this child, leaving her as a disabled person with abnormal physical development.

As for why she could rank first on the Genius Ranking, it was entirely due to her young age.

Qian Daoliu felt that even if Stelle only had the strength of a one-ring Spirit Master, her age advantage was enough to surpass everyone else.

After all, other contestants at two and a half years old could never defeat the current Stelle!

"Two point five years old... how is that possible?"

"Could this person be a child of the gods?!"

Bibi Dong gazed at Stelle on the Sky Screen, her eyes locked onto the age, her voice carrying a trace of imperceptible trembling.

She had already obtained the trials of the Rakshasa God, so she naturally confirmed that gods existed in this world.

Stelle's situation completely defied the growth laws of humans on the Douluo Continent.

This child must be the offspring of some deity from the God Realm who had snuck down to the lower realm to play.

After all, none of them knew what the God Realm was actually like.

Perhaps people there were already in their adult form the moment they were born.

Thinking of this, Bibi Dong slammed her scepter heavily into the ground, producing a dull "thud."

Her majestic and cold voice instantly echoed throughout the entire Pope's Palace:

"Notify every branch of Martial Soul Hall!"

"You must find this person for this Seat!"

"Bring her before this Seat!"

"Awoo~~ Sky Screen! Are you messing with me?!"

"Ranking a two-and-a-half-year-old cripple at number one—are you intentionally messing with us?!"

"It must be this cripple who knocked the Twin Stars of my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan off the list!"

"I demand a re-ranking! A re-ranking!"

Inside the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's compound, Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen's furious roar echoed through the heavens, his tone filled with unwillingness and resentment.

As one of the Upper Three Sects, both the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Clear Sky Sect had members on the list.

Yet, their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan hadn't seen a single name appear!

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul was hailed as the strongest beast martial soul under the heavens!

This was nothing short of a humiliating disgrace!

Yu Yuanzhen trembled with rage, smashing everything in his hands over and over until the entire mansion shook violently.

Meanwhile, at the gates of Heaven Dou City.

When the Shrek group saw Stelle on the Sky Screen, their eyes fell in unison upon the figure holding a baseball bat with an arrogant expression, their faces filled with disbelief.

Oscar, who had been incredibly arrogant and riding on others' coattails just moments before, hurriedly shoved the sausage he was using as a weapon into his mouth.

He retreated several hundred paces in a "whoosh," wishing he could crawl into a crack in the ground immediately.

Dai Mubai and Tang San were both visibly agitated, their faces etched with lingering fear.

Their minds couldn't quite process the situation.

Qian Renxue, who was in second place, already possessed level 69 Soul Power.

If this Stelle before them could surpass Qian Renxue, her Soul Power had to be at least level 60 or higher!

She might even be a Soul Saint powerhouse!

Although Shrek Academy's motto was that those who didn't dare to cause trouble were mediocre, that rule had to be applied according to the situation!

They wouldn't dare court death against an existence of Stelle's caliber.

Stelle watched their timid behavior and curled her lip in disdain.

She slung the baseball bat over her shoulder with a flourish and stared coldly at Dai Mubai and Tang San:

"Weren't you looking to give me a beating?"

"Come on then!"

"I'm standing right here, waiting for you to hit me!"

Stelle's current demeanor was infuriating to the extreme.

Her eyes were filled with the smugness of, "I just love watching you want to hit me, yet being unable to do so."

Beside her, Mimi also stood with her hands on her hips, looking quite proud of herself.

"Boss Dai!"

"This scavenger is only ranked first because of the list!"

"Think about it, aren't Oscar and Ning Rongrong ranked ahead of you too?"

"The only reason those two are ranked higher is because they are younger!"

"Look at this Stelle—she's only two and a half years old!"

"Although I don't know how she grew so big at two and a half, it's certain that her age gave her a lot of bonus points!"

"In reality, her actual strength is probably no better than Fatty's!"

"Let's join forces and take her down!"

"It would be best if... hmph! If the person who won the first-place reward is gone before it's even distributed, wouldn't the Sky Screen's ranking rewards be reissued?"

Tang San quickly calmed down, his analysis clear and logical. He stared at Stelle with gloomy eyes, then gave Dai Mubai a look.

Dai Mubai's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

He felt that Tang San made sense.

Besides, he couldn't bear to lose face like this in front of the woman he liked!

Dai Mubai let out a roar, activated his Martial Soul Possession, and a tyrannical White Tiger Soul Power instantly swept outward. His figure turned into a blur as he ferociously lunged at Stelle!

Facing Dai Mubai's tiger claws, which were as sharp as blades, Stelle merely swung the bat on her shoulder with a lazy motion, blocking him effortlessly.

"Crack! Crack!"

Several crisp sounds of bone fracturing rang out suddenly.

The moment Dai Mubai's claws collided with Stelle's bat, his face turned deathly pale, and he wore an expression of extreme agony.

He stared in disbelief at his own fingers, which were now broken and twisted, and let out a shrill, miserable howl:

"Urgh... Aaaaah!!"
