The Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul-"There are no useless Martial Souls, only useless Soul Masters." Well said!
"Your Majesty Dugu is right! This Yu Xiaogang is indeed spouting nonsense! How could His Highness, with such strength, possibly be only at the first level of the His Highness the Holy Son?"
"Wait... he just admitted it himself... 'Bulbasaur'... Level One Innate... Hiss... if it's all true..."
"From the first level of the Innate Realm to the Soul King?! This... this is simply a miracle! It defies all understanding!"
"Is Yu Xiaogang himself dumbfounded? Was it because he misjudged this that he let His Highness the Holy Son go?"
"Hahaha, serves him right! His lousy theory can't even explain the living example right in front of him! Grandmaster? What a joke!"
Countless eyes were once again focused on Lin Xia, filled with extreme shock, fervor, inquiry, and disbelief.
He cultivated his innate level one Soul Power to level fifty-eight, Soul King!
This can't be described as just being a genius; it's practically defying the heavens and changing one's destiny!
It's a miracle in the history of Soul Master!
It is a fundamental subversion of all preconceived notions!
And all of this happened right in front of Yu Xiaogang, who had just been thoroughly criticized. The fact that he himself revealed the starting point made it all the more ironic!
Qian Renxue sat upright in the main seat, a barely Frisk smile curving her lips, her eyes revealing deep admiration for Lin Xia's mastery of the entire domain.
Hu Liena, Xie Yue, Yan, and the others wore proud expressions. The strength of the Holy Son was the glory of the Spirit Hall!
Dugu Bo's eyes flashed with green light as he looked at Yu Xiaogang's disheveled and distraught appearance, then snorted coldly, and poisonous mist churned around him.
Behind the screen, Bibi Dong quietly observed everything.
When Lin Xia summoned Venusaur, displaying her level 58 Soul King strength and frankly admitting to having innate level 1 Soul Power, her gaze, through the gap in the hood, Lock-On tightly and almost greedily on the tall, straight back of the young man.
That boundless life force, that domineering presence, that meticulously planned killer move to "avenge" her... all were like the warmest sunshine, completely dispelling the last trace of Rakshasa gloom and distortion deep within her soul.
An unprecedented sense of peace and warmth, like melting snow in early spring, silently seeped into her heart.
Lin Xia... has grown to such a dazzling level.
A complex and indescribable emotion quietly rose in her heart, but there was no longer pain, only pure warmth.
Lin Xia was enjoying the immense shockwaves generated by his "Level One Innate" ability.
He raised his hand and gently soothed the Venusaur beside him, which was radiating a powerful aura. The giant Venusaur let out a low growl and restrained some of its outward-emitting Soul Power, but its majestic eyes were still coldly fixed on Yu Xiaogang, who was lying on the ground.
Once the murmurs subsided slightly, Lin Xia spoke again, her voice regaining its previous calmness, even carrying a hint of gentle laughter, as if discussing an academic issue with an old friend. But every word was like Icicle Spear coated with Toxic, precisely piercing Yu Xiaogang's already riddled heart:
"Grandmaster, look, the world is truly wondrous."
Lin Xia leaned down slightly, looking down at Yu Xiaogang, who was slumped on the ground, his face ashen.
"Back in the Nuoding Academy, you painstakingly tried to convince me with your 'Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul,' telling me that 'there are no useless Martial Soul, only useless Soul Master.'"
Lin Xia clearly uttered the "famous quote" that Yu Xiaogang had used to recruit him years ago, and his voice echoed in the hall.
Every word was like a heavy hammer blow, striking Yu Xiaogang's dignity.
"At the time, those words sounded so inspiring and uplifting."
Lin Xia's tone carried an almost nostalgic sigh, but then her words suddenly turned sharp as a knife!
"It is this sentence, this belief, that has sustained me, someone with only level one Innate Soul Power and Martial Soul that you call 'Bulbasaur,' all the way to where I am today!"
He watched as Yu Xiaogang's expression shifted from initial shock to overwhelming irony, his smile growing ever brighter, yet tinged with a chilling coldness.
"I, Lin Xia, a 'useless' person with innate level one Soul Power, will follow your famous saying and rely on my unwavering will and certain 'correct' paths."
He deliberately emphasized the word "correct," directly targeting Yu Xiaogang's theory.
"I successfully evolved my Bulbasaur, Venusaur, breaking through the shackles of Innate Soul Power and standing on the level 58 Soul King stage! Wouldn't you say that... I perfectly exemplified and practiced your famous saying?"
Lin Xia's question was like a red-hot iron, burning hard into Yu Xiaogang's soul!
He used Yu Xiaogang's most prized theoretical core, combined with his own revolutionary achievement, to complete the most thorough betrayal and mockery of Yu Xiaogang's lifelong beliefs!
"So..."
Lin Xia's voice suddenly rose, carrying a sharpness that Infiltrator the soul.
"I would also like to ask you a question, Grandmaster!"
He took a step forward, and Venusaur growled in response, an invisible pressure once again enveloping Yu Xiaogang.
"According to your own theory, since 'there are no useless Martial Soul, only useless Soul Master,' and since even a useless person like me with innate level one Soul Power can defy fate and cultivate to over level fifty! Then, what about you, esteemed and knowledgeable Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, who proposed the 'Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul'?"
Lin Xia's gaze was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the depths of Yu Xiaogang's evasive eyes. She asked, each word distinct and clear:
"Why is your Soul Power still stuck at level twenty-nine at your age?"
"Grandmaster of theory, a guiding light in the Soul Master World, why do you yourself seem unable to even surpass the statement that 'only useless Soul Master '?"
"Grandmaster, can you tell me, is your 'theoretical Grandmaster's the kind of 'useless Soul Master's you define in your theory?"
"Puff--!"
Yu Xiaogang trembled violently, his eyes wide open, staring intently at Lin Xia's face, which wore a gentle smile yet uttered the most vicious words.
The immense humiliation, the excruciating pain of being publicly skinned and dismembered, the despair of having his lifelong beliefs trampled underfoot by his own "practitioners"... were like countless venomous snakes frantically gnawing at his heart!
Finally, he could no longer bear the accumulated pressure and the excruciating pain deep in his soul, and a metallic taste suddenly surged into his throat!
He could no longer suppress the mouthful of bright red blood and vomited it out!
The blood mist was particularly glaring under the lights, splattering onto his faded gray robe, just like his shattered dignity and the completely collapsed "Grandmaster" plaque!
"Teacher!!!"
Tang San's eyes were bloodshot, and he could no longer care about the intimidation of Venusaur. He rushed forward and supported Yu Xiaogang's swaying body. His eyes were filled with extreme anger, killing intent, and a trace of... a sense of powerlessness in the face of Lin Xia's words that even he himself was unwilling to admit.
The entire hall was completely silent.
Only Yu Xiaogang's violent coughing and heavy breathing, and Tang San's suppressed, furious growl, echoed in the deathly silence.
