The system reward bar was far too tempting for Xia Yuan.

Since killing Contract Spirits in the arena could build it up, he naturally could not let such opportunities slip by.

As long as it reached 50%, he could draw another universal skill.

And further strengthen his combat power!

When Mo Shiyu saw Xia Yuan looking toward the neighboring arena, she froze for a moment, then immediately understood what he intended to do.

"Xia Yuan, don't tell me you want to...!"

The Contract Spirits below had already been beaten senseless. They could clearly take first place just by resting on the arena.

Yet that guy was like he had ADHD. He could not stay still for even a second...

Mo Shiyu bit her lip, feeling a headache coming on.

She could only indulge his nonsense...

Under the gaze of the entire crowd.

Amid everyone's baffled and shocked stares, Xia Yuan voluntarily jumped off his arena. With a single leap, he landed on the neighboring arena, where a massive melee was underway!

For a moment, the Contract Spirits on that arena stared blankly at the sudden appearance of the great demon king.

What the hell, bro?!

You were reigning supreme on the neighboring arena, doing just fine. Why did you come over here?!

Xia Yuan grinned. "I was bored, so I came over to help you break up the fight. I'm a pretty nice guy, right?"

The Holy Light Knight had just put down his handheld console when he saw this. The corners of his mouth rose slightly. "Xia Yuan really is a battle maniac. The Contract Spirits at this academy are seriously suffering for being in the same school as him!"

Mo Cheng also shook his head helplessly, sympathizing with his niece, Mo Shiyu.

Having such a willful SSR was quite exhausting...

The spectators also understood what Xia Yuan intended to do.

"He could have won just by staying on his original arena. Is he trying to beat every Contract Spirit in the school into submission?!"

"Ooh, ooh, ooh! God Yuan is insane! Fighting is awesome!"

"The other Contract Spirits don't dare challenge him, so he goes to other arenas to break up fights. And after so many rounds, he isn't showing the slightest sign of fatigue. He really is a BOSS!"

"Hahaha, coming here was totally worth it. This is so satisfying to watch!"

"He's so arrogant. I love it!"

"..."

Xia Yuan did not waste any words and began breaking up the fights.

This time, he did not claim a corner for himself. Protected by the Limitless Technique amid a sea of skills, he darted and shifted like a ghost, eliminating the other Contract Spirits one by one.

The Contract Spirits had never expected someone to suddenly barge in midway. Knowing there was no retreat, they immediately joined forces against Xia Yuan!

Xia Yuan's eyes lit up. Fearless, he turned into a harvesting machine.

His exaggerated martial arts skills, combined with all kinds of cursed techniques, steadily crushed the Contract Spirits on the arena.

No one could stop him. He was unstoppable!

He had gone completely berserk!

After sweeping through one arena, he leaped into the air and entered the next, beginning another cleanup!

The scene was far too bloody!

No matter which arena it was, the moment that silver-haired man in black arrived, it completely fell. Countless Contract Spirits were killed or injured, forced to lie back down in their Contract Spirit spaces!

"Too terrifying!"

"Can someone please stop him?"

"I don't even dare go up there..."

"We surrender, we really surrender! Stop killing us! We can revive, but death is still terrifying!"

"..."

The spectators were having a blast, but the participating Contract Spirits were on the verge of mental collapse.

Some of the more weak-willed female Contract Spirits could burst into tears right there on the spot!

From then on, they would probably have nightmares every night, dreaming of Xia Yuan's ridiculous, contemptuous smile!

The senior Contract Spirit Masters participating in the competition could not help looking toward Mo Shiyu with pleading expressions, hoping she could restrain Xia Yuan, that god of slaughter.

Mo Shiyu wanted to stop him too, but could she?

She was helpless as well!

After sweeping through the arenas several times, Xia Yuan was finally a little tired from all the running. He sat cross-legged on the arena to rest while checking the system.

The system reward bar had reached 45%!

He whistled, sincerely thanking those Contract Spirits for their contributions.

Xia Yuan had already begun imagining what skill he would draw after reaching 50%.

Thanks to Xia Yuan's rampage, few people dared to go up anymore. What had originally been a huge brawl across ten arenas had become deserted.

Other than a few bolder ones who secretly climbed up, then immediately jumped back down the moment they saw Xia Yuan coming.

That was their only way to gain arena-holding time...

Xia Yuan stood up, preparing to continue his sweep.

A little boy dressed like a doll stood before him, his childish voice ringing out.

"That's enough."

The entire venue fell silent.

Although the newcomer was just a little boy, no one dared underestimate him.

Because above his head was a conspicuous label: "SR, Level 70"!

Below the arena, Han Guang sighed and glanced at Mo Shiyu. "Mo Shiyu, your Contract Spirit has gone too far."

He had not wanted to fight Xia Yuan during the selection tournament.

But Xia Yuan had swept through the arenas so thoroughly that even he could barely obtain any arena-holding time. He had been forced to make a move!

Behind the little boy.

Han Guang's other two A-rank Contract Spirits also stepped onto the arena.

A-rank, Level 80, Shadow Controller!

A short-haired woman in tight leather clothing, with a seductive figure.

A-rank, Level 82, Blocking Warlock!

An aged old man holding a staff, coughing nonstop.

Xia Yuan lowered his head and smiled at the little boy before him, reaching out to pat his head.

"Where did this little brat come from?"

"Where's your mama-san?"

He raised his voice and shouted.

"Hey! Whose kid got lost? Come claim him!"

The little boy's face turned cold. He slapped Xia Yuan's hand away and snorted.

"So you're the SSR. I can't see what makes you so strong. You just enjoy bullying the weak."

"Everything below SR is an ant. Do you enjoy crushing ants that much?"

Xia Yuan was not annoyed at all. He raised a finger and wagged it.

"Little cross-dressing bro, you still don't understand me. I don't just enjoy crushing ants. I also enjoy... crushing cockroaches."

Their seemingly ordinary exchange was actually full of confrontation and gunpowder.

Everyone in the venue grew tense, holding their breath as they stared fixedly at the arena.

They had not expected the academy's two strongest sides to clash so early!

"I knew it. With Xia Yuan's reckless personality, he was bound to run into Senior Han Guang's Contract Spirits sooner or later!"

"Which side is stronger?"

"That's hard to say. In a one-on-one fight, God Yuan, the SSR, would definitely win. But Senior Han Guang's Contract Spirit team is no joke. They have damage, support, and control. They're practically all-purpose, so he has a chance!"

"Didn't Senior Han Guang rank in the top five Contract Spirit Masters among all universities in Cloud River Province during last year's competition? He even made it to the national tournament!"

"This will be exciting, but infighting can easily expose their trump cards. That could put us at a disadvantage in the provincial competition..."

"..."

On the arena.

The two sides faced each other. Battle could erupt at any moment.

The Superpowered Boy said coldly.

"Shadow Sis, Old Man, don't make a move yet."

"I want to... solo kill him!"

Hearing this, Xia Yuan shouted with a terrified expression.

"So scary!"

"I didn't expect you to be so brave, little cross-dressing bro. But I advise you to forget it. I don't want to bully a child."

"The three of you together would be fairer."

The Superpowered Boy said disdainfully, "I alone am enough to deal with you!"

Xia Yuan clicked his tongue twice. "You really are arrogant. You have such a punchable face when you talk!"

Everyone was speechless...

You were the most arrogant and punchable one here. What right did you have to say that about someone else?

It was Xia Yuan's first time fighting an SR, and he was a little excited.

He had long wanted to test an SR's strength and see whether that saying—everything below SR is an ant—was true!

With both hands in his pockets, Xia Yuan raised one hand, gesturing for his opponent to attack first.

The Superpowered Boy stared at him darkly and raised both hands. "I'll show you what it means that there is always someone stronger!"

Mo Shiyu suddenly recalled his ability and immediately cried out.

"Xia Yuan, his ability...!"

But before she could finish.

Bang!

Xia Yuan had already been slammed against the arena barrier!

Mo Shiyu said, "It's a supernatural ability..."

An invisible, immense force seemed to act directly upon him, forcibly dragging him into the barrier.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough to steady himself.

Otherwise, that would have been embarrassing...

The Superpowered Boy smiled smugly. "No matter what kind of defense you have, you can't block my power!"

Feeling the immense force pressing down on him, Xia Yuan also understood his opponent's ability.

Superpower?

Supernatural?

It was probably a force that completely defied scientific and physical laws.

His Limitless Technique was based on mathematics, so it really seemed unable to block it.

Still, this little brat really could hit him.

But that was all...
