My Foolish Brother, Accept Your Dear Little Brother's Scrap Iron Fist Sanction!

"What... is this?!"

Bei Bei instinctively halted his steps, shielding his front with his dragon-transformed right arm. He activated his Purple Demon Eye, staring vigilantly at You Jie and the light beside him.

When things go against the norm, there must be a demon at play; this ability You Jie had never revealed before was surely his true trump card.

"Brother Bei Bei, this is my true power!

"Gathering stars shall awaken a newborn strength, becoming a path of shining light!

"Appear, Junk Warrior!"

Following You Jie's declaration, Junk Warrior appeared at his side.

Watching that figure performing a split in the air above You Jie's head, its white scarf fluttering, Bei Bei could not help but widen his eyes.

The aura radiating from it—that of a Soul King-level powerhouse—made Bei Bei's eyes widen even further.

"A Soul King-level summon?! You Jie, is this your true strength?"

Bei Bei stared at You Jie in shock, unable to stop himself from asking.

The gap between a Soul King and a Soul Elder was immense; even Bei Bei did not believe he could easily defeat a Soul King.

Moreover, looking at You Jie's confident expression, Bei Bei had a premonition that beyond this Soul King-level Junk Warrior, You Jie must have prepared other trump cards.

But things had reached this point; Bei Bei could not retreat. Furthermore, he believed that with his own martial soul and Tang Sect techniques, he might not be unable to hold his own against a Soul King for a while.

Besides, since this was You Jie's soul skill, the Junk Warrior's endurance would surely be shorter than that of a normal Soul King.

He only needed to hold on for a short while; once You Jie's soul power could no longer support this Junk Warrior, Bei Bei would win!

Additionally, while tangling with that Soul King-level Junk Warrior, Bei Bei could utilize the power of his martial soul and soul skills to affect You Jie. Even if he couldn't attack him directly, he could force a greater consumption of his soul power, shortening the Junk Warrior's combat duration.

After finalizing his tactics in his mind, Bei Bei's third soul ring lit up. Thunder Fury activated, providing a significant boost to his lightning.

However, just as he prepared to continue launching soul skills and combine them with Tang Sect techniques to fight the charging Junk Warrior, You Jie's second soul ring lit up.

"My foolish brother, accept the iron-fisted judgment from your dear younger brother!

"Second Soul Skill--Scrap Iron Fist!"

The phantom of a green card flashed behind You Jie and vanished, then transformed into two rays of light that landed on Bei Bei and Junk Warrior respectively.

The next moment, as the light touched Bei Bei, his already activated third soul skill vanished without a trace, and even the first and second soul skills he prepared to launch failed to activate.

Following that, the two pipes on Junk Warrior's back suddenly spewed flames, and a layer of golden light covered its extended right fist as it slammed toward Bei Bei.

With his soul skills suddenly disrupted and unable to be reactivated, a panicked Bei Bei found even his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track becoming disorganized. He could only watch helplessly as that golden fist grew larger and larger in his field of vision.

The next moment, Junk Warrior's Scrap Iron Fist landed solidly on Bei Bei, sending him flying backward like a cannonball.

Just as Zhang Lexuan began to move, preparing to use her soul skill, Bei Bei had already crashed into a large tree not far from the training grounds, sliding down the trunk to sit at its base.

"Sister Lexuan, Brother Bei Bei needs immediate treatment. Could you please bring a healing-type soul master over to provide emergency care?

"My second soul skill, Scrap Iron Fist, can deal double damage to the target.

"Although I didn't let Junk Warrior use its full strength, it seems Brother Bei Bei's physical constitution is a bit worse than I thought..."

Seeing Bei Bei slumped against the tree in a faint, You Jie hurried over to Bei Bei's side with Zhang Lexuan to check his condition.

After seeing that Bei Bei's state was worse than expected, You Jie quickly made the suggestion to Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan nodded and immediately set off to find a healing-type soul master.

You Jie looked at the unconscious Bei Bei, already having a guess as to the cause of this situation, his eyes filled with a hint of mockery.

"It's fortunate I didn't activate the effect of Turbo Warrior, nor did I find a way to pull more monsters to trigger the effect of Junk Warrior.

"If I had stacked any more attack power on Junk Warrior, I might have killed Bei Bei with a single punch.

"But, could it be that Bei Bei has already been with Tang Ya? Otherwise, I can't imagine why Bei Bei's physical strength would be lower than my expectations...

"Looking at it this way, you're not even as good as Turtle Xu; at least after Turtle Xu walked into the wrong door that one time, he hasn't seemed to do that kind of thing again."

Not long after, Zhang Lexuan returned with a healing-type soul master.

You Jie recognized this soul master as well; his martial soul was the Tree of Life, and his cultivation was as high as a Soul Saint.

As the Soul Saint activated his soul skill, several emerald-green leaves fell onto Bei Bei and merged into his body. Bei Bei's complexion visibly recovered, and the injuries on his body healed rapidly.

Soon after, Bei Bei regained consciousness and slowly opened his eyes.

Realizing he had lost, and quite miserably at that, Bei Bei couldn't help but stand up with a bitter smile.

Losing to a younger brother wasn't shameful, but thinking back on his own somewhat arrogant mindset from earlier, Bei Bei felt he had no face to show anyone.

"Alright, Brother Bei Bei, you should go and recover properly, then work hard on your cultivation...

"By the way, you wouldn't happen to be overindulging with Sister Tang Ya, causing your physical constitution to lag behind, would you?"

You Jie patted Bei Bei on the shoulder and whispered into his ear.

"I didn't, I don't, Xiao Ya and I are just very..."

Bei Bei was just about to refute, but seeing Zhang Lexuan nearby, he immediately shut his mouth.

However, judging by Zhang Lexuan's slightly "nuclear-friendly" smile, Bei Bei's reaction had been a moment too slow.

"You Jie is right, Bei Bei; you have indeed been a bit slack lately."

Mu En's aged voice drifted over, causing the few people present to start in surprise.

They quickly looked toward the source of the sound, only to see the hunched Mu En walking over slowly, leaning on his cane.

Before they could react, Mu En waved his hand, signaling them not to overreact.

Afterward, he slowly walked up to Bei Bei and You Jie, scanned the two of them, and finally let out a soft sigh.

"Bei Bei, your goal for the coming period is to break through to the Soul Ancestor level before the next school year begins.

"Although I asked you to go and help Tang Ya, you were still too slack before. Soul Power is the foundation of a Soul Master, and your Soul Power Level is still a bit too low."
