"What?"
Wang Sheng's words stunned everyone. A two-ring Soul Grandmaster had instantly killed two three-ring Soul Venerables—no matter how they heard it, it sounded like bragging.
No, it was simply absurd!
Yet Li Feng's expression and behavior had already proven that everything Wang Sheng said was true.
Otherwise, why would a three-ring Soul Venerable fear a two-ring Soul Grandmaster? That made no sense!
Now, they understood.
Under Wang Sheng's relentless pressure, amid the doubts and anger of all the students below the stage, Li Feng, who had always carried himself with grace, completely broke down!
Pointing at Wang Sheng in panic, he said, "You, you, you have no evidence!"
The moment he said that, it was practically an admission that he was the one who had sent people to assassinate Wang Sheng.
"Evidence? Hahahahaha!"
As though he had heard something hilarious, Wang Sheng laughed joyfully.
At last, he said domineeringly, "Does evidence matter?"
"What matters is that if I say it's you, then it's you. Whether it is or not, it's still you!"
With every sentence, Wang Sheng took a step forward, and his aura grew stronger.
"Y-you, don't come any closer! I-I-I am the only son of Wind City's City Lord."
Li Feng was now a coward scared out of his wits, utterly pathetic. He actually tried to use his status to suppress Wang Sheng.
That ruthlessly tore away his last shred of dignity.
Below the stage, an eerie silence had fallen.
"Sigh! I used to think Li Feng was quite outstanding. Who would have thought he would be this pathetic?" The teachers in the arena could not help shaking their heads.
After all, in this world where the strong ruled, sending people to ambush someone was not the most unacceptable thing.
But cowardice showed that a person had already lost the heart of a powerhouse. A Soul Master without the heart of a powerhouse, no matter how great his talent, had lost all value in being nurtured.
"The City Lord's son? So what?"
"I, Wang Sheng, became a two-ring Soul Grandmaster at six years old! With talent like mine, if I merely stood before any major faction, they would scramble to wipe your City Lord's Mansion clean off the map!"
"Y-you, you, you..."
Li Feng stammered at Wang Sheng for a long time but could not say a single word.
Because he understood that Wang Sheng was completely right. Only at this moment did he realize that the status he had always been proud of was actually nothing at all.
"Before absolute talent, unless you are the heir to a kingdom, everyone else has to step aside."
Watching Wang Sheng and Li Feng, everyone below the stage came to understand this truth.
"Vajra Palm!"
Before his words had even faded, Wang Sheng used the Shaolin Movement Technique, turning into a swift blur and arriving before Li Feng almost instantly.
Li Feng, who had already completely broken down, never expected Wang Sheng to suddenly attack.
By the time he reacted, Wang Sheng was already right in front of him, and a palm struck his face viciously.
"Bang!"
Li Feng was slapped into a full spin on the spot.
"This slap is for Meier!"
But Wang Sheng had no intention of letting him off so easily. He followed with three more slaps.
"This slap is for Wu Xiao'ai!"
"This slap is for Wu Xiaodong!"
"This slap is for myself!"
It had to be said that using the Vajra Palm to slap someone was truly ruthless.
After four slaps, Li Feng was sent flying. He could not get up for a long time, and his face had swollen up like a pig's head.
"Pfft!!!!"
Li Feng violently spat out a mouthful of blood, mixed with quite a few broken teeth.
Afterward, Wang Sheng did not even glance at Li Feng before walking down from the stage.
He could not truly kill Li Feng within the academy, after all. The rules were there.
He could not make Teacher Xue Yue's life difficult, could he?
As Wang Sheng passed Huang Yuan, he muttered softly, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend!"
Huang Yuan, who had been stunned, immediately snapped out of it. At the same time, an unusual light flashed in his eyes.
He glanced maliciously at Li Feng, who had yet to recover from the slaps. "Li Feng, you really found the Li Family an enemy it cannot afford to provoke!"
"But for our Huang Family, this is truly wonderful news! No, I have to go have a good drink. Hahahaha!" Huang Yuan could not help laughing loudly at the end.
"Pfft..."
Li Feng spat out another mouthful of blood, though this time, he was clearly angered into it.
Huang Yuan was briefly stunned, then said with a teasing expression, "Young Master Li, do you have too much blood? Spitting some out for our entertainment?"
It had to be said that Huang Yuan's mouth was truly venomous. Li Feng's chest rose and fell violently.
Then, struggling to his feet, he staggered toward the exit.
Because he was afraid that if he did not leave now, even if Wang Sheng did not beat him to death, Huang Yuan would anger him to death.
In the distance, four figures were watching everything that had happened.
The four were Xue Yue, Ji Bing, and the academy's two Vice Deans, Yan Guang and Dongfang Chen.
At this moment, Yan Guang's face was filled with anger. "That Huang Zhen actually dares to let his son commit such crimes. Does he truly think Canghui Academy has no one left? I'll go teach him a proper lesson!"
"Vice Dean Yan, Huang Zhen is only a Spirit Emperor. If you take action, people will inevitably say you are bullying the young. Let me handle it instead! After all, Wang Sheng and the others are my students... I want everyone to understand that Xue Yue's students are not people just anyone can touch."
Xue Yue was as calm and aloof as ever. Yet her words were incomparably domineering.
At the same time, Xue Yue's words revealed a great deal of information.
"Hm?"
Even Yan Guang and Dongfang Chen were somewhat surprised. Xue Yue was still only a five-ring Soul King. Fighting six rings with five was rather overconfident!
Ji Bing, who had always regarded Xue Yue as her goal, widened her eyes in shock.
Xue Yue would never say something like that without reason, because no one understood Xue Yue better than she did.
Thus, she immediately thought of a possibility and asked tremblingly, "Could it be that you have already reached level sixty?"
"Not yet, but it is close. Probably within the next couple of days!"
"Good, good, good!"
Upon hearing that, Yan Guang and Dongfang Chen were instantly overjoyed and said "good" three times in a row. They were no longer young, yet the academy could barely produce a single capable young person.
If this continued, the academy would truly decline.
Xue Yue reaching level sixty so quickly let them see hope.
Ji Bing, on the other hand, felt extremely conflicted. She was happy, but also deeply disappointed.
Because Xue Yue's breakthrough was absolutely a good thing for the academy, but for Ji Bing, it was a nightmare. The gap between her and Xue Yue had widened again, and her grand goal of pinning Xue Yue beneath her was becoming ever more distant.
"Good. Then I'll leave this matter to you!" Yan Hua immediately replied.
