Soul Bone!

At this moment, outside.

The two pod doors slowly opened, and Tang Wulin and Xie Xie climbed out of their sleeping pods.

The moment they got up, they saw them.

Wu Zhangkong, the Spirit Pagoda staff member, and Zhang Yangzi's group.

Without exception, all their eyes were fixed on one image on the screen.

"What happened? Was my performance so good that even Teacher Wu was this shocked?" Xie Xie said smugly.

"Look at that!"

Tang Wulin nudged Xie Xie beside him, signaling for him to look at the screen.

"This screen is supposed to be observing our actions, right?" Xie Xie swept his gaze over the screens that had all gone black, finally settling on the two that were still lit.

"Th-this is a Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear!" Xie Xie's lips trembled as he recognized the two figures fighting.

One was naturally his classmate, Su Yu, but the other was actually the legendary Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear.

Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bears were apex predators among Soul Beasts. Even dragons did not dare provoke them lightly.

They could be said to stand at the peak of the Soul Beast pyramid.

A hundred-year Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear was enough to make even Thousand-year Soul Beasts avoid it.

Although this Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's skin was somewhat black, perhaps due to mutation or something else, those dreadclaws were far too distinctive.

Its identity as a Soul Beast could be recognized at a glance.

"Su Yu is so fierce! He beat the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear up that badly!" Xie Xie said in a low voice.

"What happened?" Tang Wulin stepped forward and asked Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi.

"The Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear ambushed Gu Yue just now, and then this happened!" Wang Jinxi explained simply.

Good heavens, has Su Yu entered berserk mode? If anyone dares mess with Gu Yue in the future, wouldn't they be finished? Xie Xie thought to himself.

Meanwhile, Su Yu continued throwing punches, his Sonic Punches raining down upon the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear.

Its face was where he concentrated his attacks.

The Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's face had swollen up.

"That should be enough, right?" Gu Yue's mouth twitched as she watched Su Yu pound the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear into this state punch after punch.

"Got it!" Su Yu turned and smiled at Gu Yue. Then, the Fighting Attribute Energy in his hand began to turn violent.

Serious Punch!

Su Yu launched it directly at the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's vital point.

By now, the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear was incredibly weak. Its entire body was covered in fist marks, and even its dreadclaws had dimmed.

Bang!

The punch was not loud, but it struck the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's fragile eye squarely.

Energy erupted and entered its brain through the pupil.

The Fighting Attribute instantly tore apart the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's brain, and clumps of brain matter flowed out.

Another bang rang out as the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's body fell straight to the ground.

Kicking up a cloud of dust.

Its dreadclaws completely lost their luster.

"It's over!" Su Yu turned back to look at Gu Yue.

"Wait, look!" Gu Yue motioned for Su Yu to look at the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's corpse.

"What is it?" Su Yu turned his head to look.

At that moment, light began to shine again from the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's previously dim dreadclaws. As its corpse gradually dissolved into specks of light—

A bone claw emitting a golden glow appeared on the ground.

"This is... a Soul Bone?" Su Yu said uncertainly.

"It should be a Soul Bone," Gu Yue said.

"A Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear's right palm bone? Do you want to absorb it?" Su Yu picked up the Soul Bone and handed it to Gu Yue.

However, Gu Yue shook her head. "I'd better not. My Soul Power is unstable right now!"

"But I don't have much Soul Power left either," Su Yu said.

To be honest, he did not think much of this Soul Bone. Although it was an External Soul Bone, he would rather pass.

Absorbing it would feel somewhat beneath him.

The Slate was enough!

Gu Yue looked at the Soul Bone in confusion. "Then throw it away?"

"That works too, or we can trade it to the Spirit Pagoda for something!"

"That works as well." Gu Yue nodded slightly.

"I want it, I want it!"

At that moment, a thought appeared in Su Yu's mind.

"You want it?" Su Yu lowered his head to look at his right hand.

That thought had just been sent by his Battle Armor.

"How are you going to absorb it?" Su Yu was puzzled.

However, as though the Battle Armor knew Su Yu had agreed to let it absorb the bone, it emerged the next second and tightly wrapped itself around the Soul Bone.

Su Yu's pupils contracted slightly in surprise. His Battle Armor could actually absorb Soul Bones.

"Let's take a walk. Just the two of us."

Su Yu had already shoved his right hand into his pocket to prevent the Spirit Pagoda from secretly monitoring it.

Now, they just needed to wait for the Battle Armor to finish absorbing it.

"A walk?" Gu Yue asked doubtfully.

"You don't want to?" Su Yu said as he directly took Gu Yue's hand, then began strolling through the forest with her.

The Crystal Bear from earlier had disappeared somewhere.

But it did not matter. If it came back, it would only be delivering itself to them.

Time passed bit by bit.

The two pod doors opened at the same time, and Su Yu and Gu Yue rose simultaneously.

At that moment, seven pairs of eyes locked directly onto Su Yu.

Gu Yue saw that the screen still displayed footage of their walk just now.

Their two hands were clasped tightly together.

In an instant, Gu Yue felt her face grow hot.

Her cheeks turned bright red.

However, she did not try to avoid anything and simply stood there.

"Su Yu, that was amazing! You could even crush a Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear!" Xie Xie came before Su Yu and said in astonishment.

"It was nothing. It was all thanks to the academy's training!" Su Yu said as he looked at Long Hengxu and Wu Zhangkong.

"Your academy has truly raised a monster!" The Spirit Pagoda staff member turned and left after saying that.

From beginning to end, he never mentioned the whereabouts of the Soul Bone.

But after the staff member left, they could vaguely hear him say:

"This round was a huge loss. A Soul Bone!"

Wu Zhangkong nodded at Su Yu. "You performed very well!"

After saying that, he turned and left as well.

Long Hengxu also left in satisfaction.

"At the next Tianhai Alliance Grand Tournament, you'll give them a huge surprise!"

At this point, only the Class Zero students remained in the room.

"Hey, where's that Soul Bone?" Xie Xie asked curiously.

Tang Wulin and Wang Jinxi immediately pricked up their ears.

They had naturally seen the Soul Bone dropped by the Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear. This was the first time they had learned that Soul Beasts in the Spirit Ascension Platform could actually drop Soul Bones.

It was an External Soul Bone from a Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bear!

Priceless and impossible to find!

"Secret!" After saying that, Su Yu turned and chased after Teacher Wu in the direction he had left.

He also pulled the stunned Gu Yue along with him as they ran.

The four of them looked at one another.

Xie Xie was the first to speak. "I'm telling you, anyone who dares mess with Gu Yue now is finished."

The others nodded in agreement.

They were not Dark-Gold Dreadclaw Bears. Could they withstand Su Yu's fists?

They felt that even if all four joined forces, they might not be Su Yu's match.

"Su Yu is too terrifying!"

"Gu Yue is terrifying too!" That was what Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi thought.

Tang Wulin and Xie Xie had only seen Su Yu's strength, but Gu Yue's previous outburst had been equally astonishing.

Moreover, they had seen it clearly. Gu Yue had entered her unstoppable mode only after seeing Su Yu get sent flying.

It could only be said that provoking either one of them meant the end.

Would you rather be blown up by lotuses, or beaten to death punch by punch?
