Brutalizing Dai Mubai

"Enough!"

"I'm Dai Mubai, the Evil-Eyed White Tiger!!"

"Let go of me!!"

Dai Mubai cried out in pain and rage, frantically circulating the Soul Power within his body.

"First Soul Skill, White Tiger Body Barrier!"

In an instant, white Soul Power erupted from his body, and the fierce gusts made everyone's skin sting.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuyun's expression turned somewhat stunned. She glanced at Zhu Zhuqing in surprise.

Seeing no reaction on Zhu Zhuqing's face, she could not tell whether Zhu Zhuqing did not care or simply had not recognized him.

Zhu Zhuqing might only have known that the Star Luo Empire's third prince was named Dai Mubai and that the Star Luo Imperial Family possessed the White Tiger Martial Soul. She might not even have seen what the White Tiger Martial Soul looked like.

That was why she might not have recognized that the clown provoking Jiang Li before her was the fiancé who had fled the Star Luo Empire.

But Zhu Zhuyun had been raised to become the future Empress of Star Luo.

Her understanding of the Star Luo Imperial Family far surpassed Zhu Zhuqing's. The moment Dai Mubai revealed his Martial Soul and First Soul Skill, she had immediately confirmed his identity.

Whether it was the Star Luo Imperial Family or the Zhu Clan, great Martial Soul families with generations of inheritance like theirs generally raised large numbers of Soul Beasts best suited for providing Soul Rings for their Martial Souls.

These Soul Beasts were supplied to the family's direct descendants for absorbing their first three Soul Rings. This was also the optimal arrangement proven through hundreds or even thousands of years of inherited experience.

Therefore, whether it was Dai Mubai and Dai Weisi or Zhu Zhuyun and her younger sister Zhu Zhuqing, the Soul Skills of their first three Soul Rings were exactly the same.

Zhu Zhuqing had fled the Star Luo Empire before reaching level 30. Otherwise, her future third Soul Ring would have granted the same Soul Skill as Zhu Zhuyun's third Soul Ring.

This was the foundation of a great clan.

Jiang Li glanced at Dai Mubai and raised his left hand, motioning for the two women beside him to step back.

Then, he suddenly exerted force with the hand gripping Dai Mubai and yanked hard.

A sensation of weightlessness struck Dai Mubai as his feet left the ground.

Jiang Li lifted Dai Mubai's body like a sledgehammer and slammed him heavily into the ground.

Bang!

The ground cracked as though it had been smashed by a crane.

The powerful impact rattled everything.

For a moment, Dai Mubai's mind went completely blank.

The other man's immense strength made him suck in a breath inwardly.

If he had not reacted quickly enough to use White Tiger Body Barrier, his First Soul Skill that enhanced and strengthened his body—

That painful slam would have broken at least several of his ribs.

Although he had not suffered any severe injuries, the fall had still left him thoroughly battered.

And his present situation was no less grim.

Judging from Jiang Li's age, Dai Mubai had assumed he would be an easy target. Yet he had never expected the person before him to be this formidable.

Without even releasing his Martial Soul, Jiang Li had already reduced him to such a sorry state through sheer physical strength alone.

Dai Mubai understood that he had kicked an iron plate.

Still, he was confident that as long as he apologized and revealed that he was a student of Shrek Academy—

With Shrek Academy's reputation in Soto City and its dean Flender's strength as a Soul Sage, he did not believe Jiang Li would dare continue attacking him without giving them face.

After all, who in all of Soto City did not know how fiercely Shrek Academy protected its own?

However, just as he was about to speak—

He suddenly noticed the disdain in Jiang Li's eyes. How could he, the monster student who called himself Boss Dai at Shrek Academy, possibly endure that?

"Ah!!"

"Bastard! Don't look down on me!!"

Dai Mubai roared and tried to climb to his feet so he could strike back.

But Jiang Li had no intention of giving him the chance. Before Dai Mubai could stand, Jiang Li grabbed his leg and squeezed hard.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A continuous series of impacts rang out.

Jiang Li grabbed Dai Mubai again and swung him around like a sledgehammer.

Once, twice, three times...

With each successive heavy blow from Jiang Li, the white, shield-like glow produced by Dai Mubai's First Soul Skill, White Tiger Body Barrier, gradually dimmed.

Finally, after another heavy impact—

Crack...

A sound like shattering glass rang out, and the protective white light around Dai Mubai finally broke apart.

It's over!

At the moment his First Soul Skill failed, Dai Mubai's eyes suddenly widened.

At that moment, he could no longer care about his pathetic pride. He desperately wanted to beg Jiang Li for mercy.

But the instant he opened his mouth, the powerful airflow generated by his body being swung filled it completely, leaving him unable to say a word.

Smack!

Dai Mubai's body was flung onto the ground, giving his upper body an intimate encounter with the earth. His face, which he considered handsome, was pressed and distorted against the ground in particular.

Unlike when he had struck the ground while using his Soul Skill earlier, the sound of flesh colliding with the ground this time was far more forceful.

Smack! Smack! Smack!

Listening to the sounds of flesh striking the ground beside him—

Jiang Li felt an unprecedented calm within his heart.

At that moment, he finally understood the pleasure Hulk had felt when smashing Loki in Marvel.

Under normal circumstances, when would he ever have so many opportunities to vent his frustrations this way?

Especially since the person he was smashing was Dai Mubai, the future leader of the Shrek Seven Monsters.

And he was doing it right in front of Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing, making the satisfaction even stronger.

Jiang Li was enjoying himself, but Dai Mubai was suffering miserably.

With a puff, after another intimate encounter with the ground, several bloodstained teeth flew from his mouth, arcing through the air before falling to the ground.

After all, this was Shrek Academy's territory. Jiang Li did not dare truly beat him to death.

Seeing Dai Mubai battered beyond recognition, Jiang Li finally released him and flung him away.

"How tragic."

Looking at Dai Mubai's miserable state, Zhu Zhuyun could not help murmuring softly.

Then she turned her gaze toward Jiang Li.

She did not believe that Jiang Li could recognize that she and Zhu Zhuqing possessed the Netherworld Civet Martial Soul of the Star Luo Empire's Zhu Clan, yet not know about the White Tiger Martial Soul of the Star Luo Imperial Family.

Given Dai Mubai's condition, Jiang Li had clearly done this on purpose.

Zhu Zhuyun curled her lips and muttered softly, "He really is a petty man."

Zhu Zhuyun looked up at Jiang Li and licked her alluring lips.

But she did not dislike men like him. If anything, she liked him even more.

As for Dai Mubai? He had brought this entirely upon himself.

If Dai Mubai had not fled the Star Luo Empire years ago and vanished without a trace, causing the Star Luo Imperial Family and the Zhu Clan to become wary of Zhu Zhuqing—

Why would helping Zhu Zhuqing escape the Star Luo Empire have required such great effort from her?

And judging from the strength Dai Mubai had displayed just now, it was no wonder he had lacked even the courage to face Dai Weisi and had chosen to flee the Star Luo Empire. He was completely worthless.

"Big kitty, little kitty, let's go."

Jiang Li lightly patted his clothes, which remained spotless despite the recent fight, then turned and spoke to the two women.

No, it could not be called a fight. It had merely been a one-sided beating of Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai had simply been unlucky enough to seek trouble with Jiang Li at close range after Jiang Li fused with the External Soul Bone of the Golden Dreadclaw Bear.

The External Soul Bone of a 3,000-Year Golden Dreadclaw Bear, whose attack power could rival that of a Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear, combined with the enhancement provided by the Three-Thousand-Year Soul Ring that contained the Golden Dreadclaw Bear's source power—

At this moment, the part of Jiang Li's right arm fused with the External Soul Bone could even be said to rival a divine arm.

How could Dai Mubai, a Soul Master of the same realm whose third Soul Ring was no more than two thousand years old, possibly compare?

Jiang Li had not even used his Martial Soul, yet he had beaten Dai Mubai until he could no longer take care of himself.

Dai Mubai trembled as he raised a hand and pointed at Jiang Li. Forcing open his mouth, which leaked air due to his missing teeth, he stammered, "Y-you... who exactly are you?"

Looking at Jiang Li's back, Dai Mubai's face was filled with unwillingness.

If he had not been too careless, how could he, a level 34 assault-type battle Soul Master, have been beaten senseless in a single exchange by someone who had not even used his Martial Soul?

"The weak are not worthy of knowing my name, just as I do not care who you are!" Jiang Li turned around and looked down at Dai Mubai.

"Y-you... you!"

Hearing this, Dai Mubai could no longer endure it. His blood surged, his throat grew hot, and a mouthful of blood immediately burst from his mouth.
