A Single Hammer Decides It! Xiao Wu's Soft Technique!

Tang Yin's mouth twitched. The first half of that sentence was normal enough, but why did the second half have to be so vulgar?

"Little Boss, are you here to pick a fight?" Tang Yin asked.

"What Little Boss? My surname is Xiao!" Veins bulged on Xiao Chenyu's forehead as he roared in anger.

Unbelievable!

The brats these days really knew how to make a person's blood boil!

"I've already asked around!"

"Your name is Xiao Wu, right?"

"If you've got the guts, come to the back mountain!"

"Bring all you Work-Study Student lot with you. This time, I'm going to beat you bunch of paupers into total submission!"

Xiao Chenyu snorted coldly.

He then turned and walked past Tang Yin and Xiao Wu with an arrogant air, flanked by his lackeys. He even deliberately bumped into the two of them, looking incredibly cocky.

Xiao Wu's fiery temper flared instantly. She grabbed Tang Yin and gave chase: "Tang Yin, let's go to the back mountain! Let's show them what we're made of!"

Tang Yin asked: "Don't we need to notify Wang Sheng and the others?"

Xiao Wu shook her head decisively: "No need! Just stand by and watch in a moment; I'll take them all on by myself! Watch how I beat them until they're running for their lives!"

Tang Yin calmly retrieved a Forging Hammer from his storage Soul Tool: "Although my martial soul is Blue Silver Grass and lacks attack power, my hammer technique is quite formidable. We shall fight side by side."

Xiao Wu stared at the Forging Hammer in Tang Yin's hand, which was larger than his own head. She blinked, her eyes lighting up, though she also felt a hint of worry.

"Then go easy on them. Don't smash their heads open. We just want to beat them into submission, not kill them."

Tang Yin smiled and nodded.

At the academy's back mountain.

Tang Yin and Xiao Wu stood side by side, quietly watching Xiao Chenyu and his group posturing and acting cool.

Xiao Chenyu stood with seven or eight followers, the collar of his senior-grade uniform pulled askew. He looked Tang Yin and Xiao Wu up and down with a provocative gaze, a mocking smirk curling his lips: "To show up for the appointment with just the two of you—should I call you brave, or just hopelessly overconfident?"

Xiao Wu arched her brows and stepped in front of Tang Yin: "Cut the crap! This young lady is going to show you today that kids aren't to be trifled with!"

Xiao Chenyu let out a disdainful scoff: "If you two surrender now, I might go a little easier on you. Otherwise... heh!"

"The academy won't care about you Work-Study Student lot. If you end up with broken arms or legs, the academy won't pay for your treatment, and they might even expel you!"

"Young people shouldn't be so arrogant!" Tang Yin's gaze turned cold, his muscles tensing.

"If you aren't arrogant, can you even call yourself a young person?" Xiao Chenyu looked smug.

But the next second, he froze, then turned to Tang Yin with annoyance: "You're just a first-year brat, what right do you have to say that to me!"

"Are you all coming together, or one by one?" Tang Yin reached back and pulled out his Forging Hammer, his gaze sweeping over Xiao Chenyu and the others.

"Is that bracelet on your hand a storage Soul Tool?" Xiao Chenyu asked in shock.

"The kid has a sharp eye!" Tang Yin pulled Xiao Wu behind him, his body slowly lowering as he prepared to strike.

Xiao Chenyu frowned.

As the son of the Nuoding City lord, he had only ever heard of treasures like storage Soul Tools.

Even his father, the city lord, didn't have the means to acquire one.

"To think a Spirit Master would actually use a weapon in battle—but it doesn't matter, you're going to lose all the same!" Xiao Chenyu gave a contemptuous smile and said to someone beside him: "Liu Long, you go!"

"Got it, Boss!" The boy named Liu Long stepped out from the crowd. He gripped his hands, and a long staff appeared. He then glared coldly at Tang Yin: "Brat! I'll let you make the first move!"

Tang Yin weighed the Forging Hammer in his hand and walked toward the boy, beginning to build momentum without a word.

Chaotic Cloak! Eighty-one strikes!

Each strike stronger than the last!

With his level thirteen spirit power, Tang Yin stacked his hammer technique to fifteen strikes in an instant!

The wind whistled!

Seeing Tang Yin's expressionless face and the incoming Forging Hammer, Liu Long's expression changed drastically.

He instinctively held his long staff horizontally in front of him to block.

However.

The moment Tang Yin's hammer fell, Liu Long felt a force he could not possibly resist.

He lost consciousness instantly, flying backward like a kite with a broken string, completely out of control.

"Ah!!!"

Xiao Chenyu and the others, who had no time to dodge, were instantly knocked over by Liu Long's flying body.

"Bastard!"

Xiao Chenyu was the first to stand up. Looking at the severely injured and unconscious Liu Long, along with the lackeys who had been bowled over, his face turned red with rage.

"Xiao Chenyu, sixth-grade student, Martial Soul Wolf, level eleven soul power, please advise!" As Xiao Chenyu introduced himself, he activated Martial Soul Possession, his body taking on lupine features as a white Soul Ring quietly appeared around him.

That vicious gaze would have truly frightened anyone else.

Tang Yin prepared to continue taking down Xiao Chenyu.

"Let me handle this!" Xiao Wu pulled Tang Yin back and, mimicking Xiao Chenyu's style of introduction, announced, "Xiao Wu, first-grade student, Martial Soul Rabbit, level twelve soul power!"

Before her crisp voice had even faded, a pale pink, soft light surged from her body like a thin mist.

A pair of pink and white velvet ears suddenly sprouted from the top of Xiao Wu's head, their tips tinged with light pink, trembling slightly as her soul power flowed.

Those already lively almond eyes were instantly veiled in a translucent, rosy luster, shedding some of her childishness and gaining a touch of maturity.

Her figure stretched out gracefully, her waist becoming increasingly slender and supple, her limbs flowing with long, lithe lines.

What shocked Xiao Chenyu and the others was that the Soul Ring around Xiao Wu was yellow.

"Level twelve soul power! And she actually has a hundred-year Soul Ring!?"

Xiao Chenyu gasped in shock, his wolf pupils suddenly constricting.

"Yah!"

Xiao Wu did not give Xiao Chenyu a chance to react; she exerted force through her feet and leaped forward violently.

"First Soul Skill, Waist Bow!"

In an instant, the flexibility of Xiao Wu's delicate body was greatly amplified, and her Soft Technique was unleashed.

Xiao Chenyu had only just reacted when he was already controlled by Xiao Wu and flung into mid-air.

"Let me show you my Soft Technique!"

Before Xiao Wu finished speaking, her Soft Technique was already being applied to Xiao Chenyu.

Tang Yin watched with wide eyes.

He saw the tall and sturdy Xiao Chenyu being slammed into the ground time and again by Xiao Wu's petite frame, and struck fiercely while he was still in the air.

Tang Yin could feel the pain just by watching.

Xiao Wu only wanted to teach Xiao Chenyu a lesson and did not use lethal force.

"Bang!"

After slamming Xiao Chenyu hard onto the ground, Xiao Wu clapped her hands, brushed the dust off her clothes, and gave a disdainful smile: "Is that all you've got?"

"Boss!!!"

Xiao Chenyu's lackeys rushed over to check on his condition.

"The world is truly going to the dogs!"

"Are first-grade students this terrifying nowadays!?"

Xiao Chenyu muttered to himself.

"Hmph!"

"Little brat, it seems you're still not convinced!"

"Then let's keep fighting!"

Xiao Wu came to Tang Yin's side, placed one hand on her hip, narrowed her eyes at Xiao Chenyu, and shouted in a sweet voice.

Tang Yin took the opportunity to weigh the Forging Hammer in his hand.
