Yu Xiaogang was stunned when he heard that Meng Chen's soul ring came from a fifteen-hundred-year-old Azure-Scaled Thunder Flood Dragon, and he cried out in disbelief.

"Impossible! How can a plant martial soul absorb an animal soul beast? Aren't you afraid that the soul ring won't match your martial soul?"

Meng Chen sneered and retorted, "Heh... Tang San can absorb the soul ring of a Mandala Snake, so why can't I absorb the soul ring of an Azure-Scaled Thunder Flood Dragon?"

"That's different. Blue Silver Grass's greatest advantage is its non-exclusivity. It won't reject any attributes added by a soul ring; it will only passively assimilate them. That's why absorbing a Mandala Snake's soul ring isn't a problem."

"But according to my Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls theory, your Thunder Vine is merely a plant martial soul. Even if it mutated to gain lightning attributes, it absolutely cannot absorb the soul ring of an Azure-Scaled Thunder Flood Dragon. Clearly, you're lying!"

Filled with confidence, Yu Xiaogang once again brought out his invincible theory and pointed out Meng Chen's supposed mistake.

A plant martial soul should just obediently absorb plant soul beasts' soul rings. Did he even understand how to absorb an animal soul beast's soul ring?

After hearing this, the surrounding crowd felt that it sounded impressive, though they did not fully understand it.

It seemed to make some sense, yet something also felt off. Still, they could not point out exactly what was wrong.

Meng Chen clicked his tongue twice upon hearing this.

"Tsk, tsk... When Tang San absorbs a Mandala Snake's soul ring, it's an advantage of Blue Silver Grass. When I absorb an Azure-Scaled Thunder Flood Dragon's soul ring, it's a mistake. Yu Xiaogang, you really do have double standards."

"Since absorbing an animal soul ring is supposedly wrong for me, then why did my wrong soul skill defeat Tang San's correct soul skill?"

"Or is your so-called Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls nothing but made-up nonsense? Anything beneficial to you and Tang San is right, and anything unfavorable to you two is wrong!"

Meng Chen's voice suddenly rose, echoing across the training grounds.

The crowd immediately saw the light.

That was right. If Yu Xiaogang's theory was correct, and plant martial souls could not absorb animal soul rings, then why had both Meng Chen and Tang San succeeded?

If Meng Chen was wrong, then why had his absorption not failed?

Then there was only one possibility: Yu Xiaogang's so-called Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls was wrong!

For a moment, the way everyone looked at Yu Xiaogang changed.

Damn it, they had nearly been fooled by this freeloader!

Noticing the distrust in the eyes around him, Yu Xiaogang panicked and hurriedly tried to argue.

"My Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls cannot possibly be wrong. I know! Meng Chen, your soul ring definitely didn't come from an Azure-Scaled Thunder Flood Dragon. You made it up!"

Yu Xiaogang pointed at Meng Chen's soul ring, convinced that he had found a loophole.

As long as he stubbornly insisted that Meng Chen's soul ring did not come from an Azure-Scaled Thunder Flood Dragon, the other side would have no way to prove his theory wrong. His theory would remain invincible!

Seeing Yu Xiaogang shameless to this extent, Meng Chen could not be bothered to waste any more words on him and turned to look at Tang San instead.

The Thunder Hell Vine bound Tang San tightly. No matter how Tang San struggled, it was useless; it only constricted tighter and tighter.

What Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, what Tang Sect hidden weapons—at this moment, they had all become useless.

A trace of disbelief still lingered on Tang San's face.

He had mastered the Tang Sect's supreme techniques and possessed twin martial souls, yet he had actually lost to Meng Chen.

"Meng Chen, let me go! I wasn't serious. If you have the guts, let's fight again!"

Tang San growled. He still had Tang Sect techniques and hidden weapons he had not used. He refused to accept this!

Meng Chen said disdainfully, "A loss is a loss. What's this nonsense about being serious or not? If you can't afford to lose, don't play."

"You!" Tang San gritted his teeth and glared at Meng Chen, wishing he could tear his mouth apart.

Then Meng Chen seemed to think of something. Looking at Tang San writhing like a slug, he gave a teasing smile.

"Tang San, after your Blue Silver Grass absorbed the Mandala Snake's soul ring, it gained the Mandala Snake's venom. So tell me, after my Thunder Hell Vine absorbed the Azure-Scaled Thunder Flood Dragon, what do you think it gained~?"

Seeing Meng Chen's sinister smile, Tang San's expression changed. At last, he panicked.

"Y-you, what are you trying to do?!"

"Take a deep breath. Feeling dizzy is normal."

As soon as the words fell, Meng Chen snapped his fingers under Tang San's terrified gaze.

With a sharp snap, the Thunder Hell Vine suddenly unleashed a burst of violent lightning. It crackled as it invaded Tang San's body.

Tang San immediately felt a piercing pain spread through his flesh, as though it were boring into his heart and scraping his bones, frantically stimulating his nerves.

Even Tang San, who had lived two lives and endured the Tang Sect's harsh training, could not hold on under the lightning's invasion and scorching heat. His eyes rolled back, and he screamed miserably.

"Aaaaargh!!"

"Xiao San!!" Yu Xiaogang roared, but his feet seemed rooted in place, unable to move at all.

Tang San was electrocuted until he wished he were dead, howling without end. The other students and teachers could not bear to watch any longer and spoke up one after another.

"Student Meng, the soul battle is already over. You won. There's no need to keep targeting Student Tang."

"Boss Meng, you can't keep shocking him! If you keep going, Tang San's going to be burnt to a crisp!"

"Meng Chen, enough!"

Hearing them, Meng Chen also felt it was about enough, so he withdrew the Thunder Hell Vine.

Thud!

Tang San, electrocuted unconscious, rolled his eyes back and collapsed on the ground with his butt raised. His body still twitched involuntarily, looking utterly pathetic.

However, it was not over yet.

Amid a hissing sound, under everyone's watchful eyes, Tang San's crotch rapidly became wet. Some pale yellow unidentified liquid flowed out, soaking the ground.

Tang San had been electrocuted into incontinence!

The surrounding students and teachers shuddered in disgust. Tang San had truly humiliated himself this time!

Meng Chen backed away several steps, secretly relieved.

Fortunately, he had withdrawn the Thunder Hell Vine a moment earlier. He had nearly gotten Tang San's filth on himself.

Ignoring everyone else's stares, Meng Chen turned to head for the cafeteria, only to be stopped again by Yu Xiaogang, who was panting heavily with bloodshot eyes.

"Meng Chen, you're so vicious! Xiao San only wanted to spar with you, yet you tortured him like this and even... even made him lose so much face! How is he supposed to hold his head up at the academy from now on?!"

Meng Chen's expression turned cold. What he hated most was being interrupted while going to eat.

"So busy electrocuting him that I forgot to electrocute you, huh?"

"What?" Yu Xiaogang froze.

Meng Chen raised his hand, and a Thunder Hell Vine shot out.

Yu Xiaogang had already been poisoned by the Mandala Snake earlier, and his body had yet to recover. His reactions were sluggish.

Even at his peak, he would not have been able to dodge it.

The Thunder Hell Vine instantly wrapped around Yu Xiaogang's ankle. Meng Chen directly increased its power, and with a burst of crackling electricity, Yu Xiaogang's eyes rolled back as he howled and convulsed wildly on the spot.

"Aaaaargh..."

Feeling that it was about enough, Meng Chen immediately withdrew the vine.

The next second, Yu Xiaogang, like Tang San, rolled his eyes back and collapsed to the ground with his butt raised.

Already weak, he was even worse off than Tang San after being electrocuted. Shit and piss flowed everywhere, and a foul stench spread out. The surrounding students and teachers covered their noses and retreated again and again.

"Holy shit! It stinks!"

"No way, h-he shit himself!"

"Bleurgh!!!"

Some even vomited on the spot.

Meng Chen had not expected Yu Xiaogang to be such trash. He hurriedly turned his head away, losing even his appetite.

"Damn it, is this guy trying to disgust me because he can't beat me?!"

No, he needed to find somewhere to wash his eyes.

Covering his nose, Meng Chen hurriedly retreated.

The students and teachers scattered like birds and beasts as well. No one went to the cafeteria anymore—who still had an appetite after that?

The cafeteria chef thought, Huh? Why is no one coming to eat today? I braised those pork knuckles for nothing!

On the training grounds, the electrocuted master and disciple lay sprawled on the ground like maggots, and no one came to deal with them for a long time...
