Thunder Radiance Crystal Offsets One Hundred Thousand Gold Soul Coins, Xiao Wu Gets Angry: My Family Has Piles of This Junk!

Meng Chen's smile grew even brighter at that.

"As long as you can afford to lose. Don't forget the one hundred thousand gold soul coins."

With that, Meng Chen reached out and helped Yu Tianheng to his feet.

They were not mortal enemies. It had only been a spar; there was no need to leave him lying on the spirit battle platform.

Yu Tianheng wanted to refuse, but he had been completely drained and could not push Meng Chen away. He could only let Meng Chen support him as they walked off the spirit battle platform.

Seeing this, the referee immediately announced:

"The spirit battle is over. The winner of this match is... Meng Chen!"

After a brief silence, the spirit battle arena erupted. Everyone stared in disbelief at Meng Chen helping Yu Tianheng off the platform, and discussions broke out one after another.

"Yu Tianheng lost?! No, he's a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect! How could he lose?!"

"I bet five hundred gold soul coins on Yu Tianheng. It's over, my allowance for this month is gone!"

"I really don't understand what you people were thinking. That specially admitted student is level thirty-nine and has two purple and one black soul rings. You actually thought Yu Tianheng would win?"

"I thought the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul could make up for those gaps. It is the number one beast martial soul in the world..."

The vast majority had bet on Yu Tianheng to win. Even though Meng Chen's soul power and soul ring configuration surpassed Yu Tianheng's, they still believed Yu Tianheng would win.

The title of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon as the number one beast martial soul in the world had already clouded their judgment.

And the facts proved that even the number one beast martial soul in the world was useless before an absolute gap in strength.

Listening to the surrounding chatter, Yu Tianheng shot Meng Chen an annoyed glare.

"It's all your fault! You made the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect lose face!"

"What does that have to do with me? You were simply inferior. Let me give you a piece of advice: if you're no good, don't blame the road for being uneven. If you're weak, train more."

Meng Chen fired back without the slightest politeness.

"Let go of me."

Yu Tianheng had recovered a little strength. Seeing Dugu Yan and the others running over to meet him, he struggled and shoved Meng Chen away.

He did not like men.

Seeing that, Meng Chen released Yu Tianheng's shoulder as well.

His sexual orientation was normal too.

"Tianheng, how are you? Are your injuries serious? Lingling, hurry and treat Tianheng." Dugu Yan quickly supported Yu Tianheng. A trace of anxiety showed on her pretty face as she asked with concern.

Seeing that his right hand was still bleeding, she hurriedly called for Ye Lingling to treat him.

Ye Lingling summoned the Nine-Hearted Begonia. A pink begonia petal fell onto Yu Tianheng and helped him recover.

Leaning against Dugu Yan and smelling the faint fragrance drifting from her, Yu Tianheng suddenly felt that losing one match was nothing when the woman he loved cared about him.

Seeing how concerned Dugu Yan was about Yu Tianheng, Yu Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had thought Sister Yan had become curious about Meng Chen and no longer wanted Brother Tianheng.

After all, wasn't there a saying?

When a woman became curious about a man, that was the beginning of her downfall.

Under the Nine-Hearted Begonia's healing, Yu Tianheng recovered. Seeing Meng Chen about to leave, he called out to him.

"Meng Chen, wait!"

"What now?" Meng Chen turned back and asked.

Yu Tianheng took out a black box from his storage soul tool. It was made of lead, and he threw it at Meng Chen with force.

Meng Chen caught it one-handed and weighed it in his palm. It was not light, at least four or five hundred jin.

Yu Tianheng said, "I don't have one hundred thousand gold soul coins on hand for now, so I'll use this to cover it. It's definitely worth one hundred thousand gold soul coins."

"If you don't want it, then treat it as collateral for now. I'll redeem it later with one hundred thousand gold soul coins."

Meng Chen opened the lead box, revealing a palm-sized piece of strange blue-violet metal. It was as clear and translucent as crystal, with faint lightning patterns branded across its surface and lightning-element energy flowing within it.

"Hm? Thunder Radiance Crystal. Kid, this is good stuff. Haven't you always wanted an enhancement-type soul tool? This Thunder Radiance Crystal can be used as the material for one."

Ye Xishui's voice sounded beside Meng Chen's ear. His thoughts stirred, and he immediately accepted the Thunder Radiance Crystal.

"Fine. This will offset the one hundred thousand gold soul coins. By the way, what is this called?"

Yu Tianheng said, "Purple Extremity Thunder Crystal."

Everyone had their own name for it, and Meng Chen did not ask further before turning and leaving.

Yu Tianheng watched Meng Chen's receding figure, his right hand clenching into a fist. The pain from being pierced still lingered in his heart.

No matter how unwilling he was, he had to admit that he had lost. And he had lost miserably, without even touching his opponent once.

But he was a dragon! How could such a minor defeat knock him down?!

"Meng Chen, I was careless this time. Next time, I'll definitely win it back!"

Yu Tianheng made up his mind. He would only lose once.

Next time, he would let Meng Chen see the true might of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was strong in far more than just lightning!

"I believe in you, Tianheng." Dugu Yan encouraged Yu Tianheng from the side, while Yu Feng and the others nodded in agreement.

Ye Lingling turned to look at Meng Chen's disappearing back and murmured to herself.

"So that is the Thunder Hell Vine martial soul? The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon did not even have the strength to resist. How terrifying!"

The academy was only so large. Before long, news that Yu Tianheng had failed to last even half a minute against Meng Chen spread throughout the academy, leaving students and teachers who had not watched the spirit battle astonished.

They had imagined many possible outcomes, but never expected Yu Tianheng to lose so thoroughly.

Meanwhile, at the dormitory building.

In the living room, Xiao Wu hugged a cushion and gloomily stared at the lead box on the table.

"A-Chen, one hundred thousand gold soul coins, and he used this piece of junk to pay it off? If you like it, I can find you piles of it!"

"No, we can't let him cheat us like this! Trade it back! We have to trade it back!"

The more Xiao Wu thought about it, the angrier she became. There was as much of this stone as they wanted in the Star Dou Great Forest. How could it possibly be worth one hundred thousand gold soul coins?!

She tossed the cushion aside, grabbed Meng Chen's arm, and tried to drag him off to find Yu Tianheng.

Meng Chen hurriedly wrapped his arms around Xiao Wu's slender waist and gently soothed her. "Alright, Xiao Wu. I need this Thunder Radiance Crystal. As far as I'm concerned, it's worth one hundred thousand gold soul coins. There's no need to find Yu Tianheng again. Be good, okay? Listen to me."

At that, Xiao Wu bit her pink lip lightly. She still felt that Meng Chen had been cheated.

"A-Chen, if you like these stones, my home has them everywhere. One of my younger brothers likes collecting this sort of thing. When I go home, I'll bring them all to you! We don't want this stupid stone!"

Xiao Wu turned her head and said so. She wanted the one hundred thousand gold soul coins more anyway, and she did not like Yu Tianheng's stupid stone.

Seeing this, Meng Chen showed a troubled expression. "But I already promised Yu Tianheng that this Thunder Radiance Crystal would offset the one hundred thousand gold soul coins. People can't go back on their word. How about we just take this loss once and not go looking for Yu Tianheng, alright?"

Seeing Meng Chen in such a difficult position, Xiao Wu disliked Yu Tianheng even more. She clenched her small fists, indignant.

"Yu Tianheng! Hmph, how dare he cheat us like this. If he dares cause trouble again next time, I'll beat him until he's crawling around looking for his teeth!"

"Yes, yes, my Xiao Wu is the strongest."

Meng Chen smiled and went along with Xiao Wu. Hearing his praise, Xiao Wu proudly lifted her chin and began thinking about how to beat Yu Tianheng until he was crawling around looking for his teeth and howling in pain.

Who told him to cheat her A-Chen?!
