Intense Soul Power fluctuations rippled continuously across the open ground in front of the teaching building, immediately drawing the attention of many students and teachers.
In Freshman Class Nine, a female teacher named Mu Jin looked down at Zhou Yi, whose body was constantly erupting with Soul Power as she stood there in obvious disarray. Mu Jin could not help but freeze.
"What is Zhou Yi going crazy over this time? Does she really think no one can control her just because Fan Yu is backing her?"
"That woman actually dared to attack a freshman? She's truly insane!"
Mu Jin's beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief.
Although she had never gotten along with Zhou Yi, she had never imagined that Zhou Yi would go this far and actually attack a freshman.
At that moment, on the open ground below...
Qiangu Qitian quietly watched Zhou Yi, regarding her Martial Soul Possession form as though she were a clown.
After merging with the Red Dragon, Zhou Yi's body had clearly grown larger and more imposing.
Her dragon claws burned with raging Dragon Fire, the flames so scorching that even the surrounding air began to warp.
"Come. Let me see what you can do!"
Qiangu Qitian did not attack immediately. He was confident that, with his explosive power, a single strike from his staff could leave Zhou Yi half-crippled.
Once he made his move, Zhou Yi would no longer be able to fight.
"Arrogant!"
Zhou Yi had also seen Qiangu Qitian's Soul Rings. Though she was shocked by his two black Soul Rings, a Soul Ancestor was still only a Soul Ancestor. How could he compare to a high-level Spirit King like her?
So, in her eyes, Qiangu Qitian allowing her to strike first was nothing but blind arrogance.
"First Soul Skill: Dragon Fire!"
"Second Soul Skill: Dragon Fury!"
"Fifth Soul Skill: Crimson Dragon Burning Annihilation Strike!"
Zhou Yi went all out from the very start. Even though she believed Qiangu Qitian had a powerful background, she was confident that her husband could protect her.
"Is that all? This is the strength you're so proud of?"
"Are all teachers of Shrek's Outer Academy at this level?"
Although Zhou Yi's full-power attack looked tremendously imposing, Qiangu Qitian found it utterly ordinary.
Soul Skills were neither fixed nor solid. As they were released, their power weakened somewhat in midair. If they struck Qiangu Qitian like this, their power would diminish even further.
Even if Qiangu Qitian did not resist, at most they would seriously injure him. They would not even threaten his life.
What disappointing power. Qiangu Qitian no longer held back, and the first purple Soul Ring beneath him flickered faintly.
"First Soul Skill: Force Piercing Ten Thousand Juns!"
"First Form of the Indomitable Staff Technique: Battle Heaven Move Earth!"
Qiangu Qitian's aura instantly condensed into a single point. He swung his long staff, creating countless overlapping shadows that annihilated Zhou Yi's three Soul Skills in an instant.
Its power did not diminish in the slightest as it came crashing directly down upon her.
"Wait, can we reconcile now?"
When Zhou Yi saw her three Soul Skills extinguished in an instant by Qiangu Qitian, terror immediately filled her eyes.
She shouted at Qiangu Qitian, desperately hoping to reconcile with this student who had shown her no respect.
But it was already too late. Qiangu Qitian's Coiling Dragon Staff had condensed into one, and it smashed down upon her.
Zhou Yi only felt an enormous force slam into her. In the next moment, her defenses shattered completely, and the mask concealing her identity broke apart as well.
The staff struck her body directly, sending her flying through the air like a tattered sack under the tremendous force.
She crashed heavily onto the ground, spitting out a mouthful of black blood mixed with chunks of flesh.
Her face turned deathly pale, and one side of her body was twisted and deformed from the blow.
"What is going on here?!"
Just as Qiangu Qitian finished dealing with Zhou Yi, a vast aura of light suddenly rose in the distance.
Yan Shaozhe and Du Weilun, the director of the Martial Soul Department, hurried over from afar.
It took them only moments to land directly before Qiangu Qitian.
Yan Shaozhe wore a stern expression, as though he had never known Qiangu Qitian at all.
Seeing this, Qiangu Qitian became even more certain that this senior brother had interfered with his class assignment.
"Because I contradicted Teacher Zhou Yi, she wanted to expel me."
"Then, when I refused, she tried to attack me. After that, she failed to beat me."
"I barely used any strength before she fell. If all Outer Academy teachers are at this level, that would be truly disappointing."
Facing Yan Shaozhe's stern expression, Qiangu Qitian merely shrugged and casually described what had happened.
He paid no attention whatsoever to Zhou Yi's final attempt at reconciliation.
After all, Zhou Yi had not truly wanted to reconcile. She had simply become afraid.
Du Weilun's eyes widened in utter bewilderment. Looking at Zhou Yi, whose body had been beaten until half of it was caved in and whose appearance was barely human, his face was filled with disbelief.
What did he mean by saying that he had casually struck an outstanding Outer Academy instructor into such a state with one blow?
As the head of the Outer Academy's Martial Soul Department, Du Weilun knew Zhou Yi's strength very well.
Although she was not among the top-ranked Outer Academy teachers, she was close to becoming a Spirit Emperor. Yet someone with such strength had been beaten into this state so easily with a single strike. It was simply unbelievable.
"So that's what happened!"
"Zhou Yi took the initiative to provoke a student and attacked him, only to end up like this because she lacked the strength."
"Taking the initiative to attack a student shows that Zhou Yi possesses no teacher's ethics whatsoever. In my capacity as dean of the Martial Soul Department, I hereby announce that she is expelled from the Martial Soul Department as of today."
"Weilun, notify Zhou Yi's family and have them take her away as soon as possible."
"How disgraceful. She was beaten into this state by a child, a first-year Outer Academy student."
"Does someone with strength like hers deserve to be a teacher at Shrek?"
After hearing Qiangu Qitian's explanation, Yan Shaozhe immediately announced Zhou Yi's punishment without another word.
As for Qiangu Qitian?
He had merely been provoked by Zhou Yi and instinctively used a little too much strength. Besides, he was only a child.
Could adults like them really hold it against a child?
"Dean Yan, what about Class One?"
Du Weilun nodded. Although he normally gave Fan Yu some face, Yan Shaozhe had personally given the order this time, so naturally he had no other objections.
However, once Zhou Yi was expelled, Class One would no longer have a homeroom teacher. A replacement had to be arranged.
"Wang Yan has recently advanced to Spirit King and is qualified to become Class One's homeroom teacher."
"Then let Wang Yan take over. I believe he can manage Class One well."
"If Fan Yu has any objections, tell him to come find me personally!"
"Enough. That settles it!"
There's one more chapter, no later than six o'clock.
