"That idiot!"
Qian Renxue gritted her teeth inwardly.
He has no idea how powerful the Diamond Mammoth is!
It's a top-tier beast Martial Soul, said to be unmatched in defense and strength among those at the same level!
No Soul Ring, no combat experience—what's he going to fight with?
If Huyan Ye tramples him here today, the Qian Family will be utterly humiliated!
No. I can't let that happen.
So, just as the match between Huyan Ye and Qian Renchuan was about to begin, Qian Renxue stepped forward.
"Wait. I'll fight you."
The entire crowd was stunned.
No one had expected Qian Renxue to step in for the Eldest Young Master.
Even Qian Renchuan was surprised.
He hadn't seen it coming at all.
Then he heard Qian Renxue's thoughts.
My big brother is useless. He doesn't even have a Soul Ring. How could he beat a level twenty-five Huyan Ye?
It doesn't matter if he loses, but he's the Pope's eldest son. He represents Spirit Hall!
I won't let the likes of the Elephant Armor Sect trample Spirit Hall's authority!
I may not have a Soul Ring either, but I'll show him that Spirit Hall won't be insulted!
Hearing all this, Qian Renchuan could only smile wryly.
His second sister was stubbornly proud—and, in her own way, rather adorable.
Her pride ran so deep she couldn't bear even a single slight against Spirit Hall.
But if someone else wanted to fight for him, he was happy to take it easy. He stepped back and settled in to watch.
Huyan Ye frowned.
He clearly couldn't bring himself to attack a porcelain doll like Qian Renxue.
Especially since word would get back to the Elephant Armor Sect.
His own father would probably break his legs.
But when he saw Qian Renchuan retreat without protest, Huyan Ye couldn't resist another jab.
"Eldest Young Master, you're something else. Hiding behind your own little sister?"
Qian Renxue said coldly,
"Let's begin."
"If the Elephant Armor Sect's strength is all talk, then I'll admit you're impressive."
Huyan Ye's expression darkened.
Rumor had it that Miss Renxue was extraordinarily gifted, born with level twenty Soul Power. But she didn't have a single Soul Ring, and she was just a little girl.
Huyan Ye remained confident.
"Fine, Miss Renxue."
"If your big brother wants to hide like a turtle, then let me see what your Angel Family can do!"
At those words, Qian Renxue's gaze turned icy.
That brat really didn't know when to keep his mouth shut.
He even dared to mock the Angel Family?
She would teach him a lesson he wouldn't forget.
Boom!
Qian Renxue released her Martial Soul.
A colossal phantom of a Seraphim appeared behind her.
Sacred light illuminated the entire training ground. She had no Soul Ring, yet the immense pressure still made everyone's heart tremble.
The fight began at once.
Huyan Ye roared, and his first Soul Ring lit up.
"First Soul Skill: Mammoth Charge!"
The next instant,
he charged straight at Qian Renxue.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each step struck the ground with a heavy thud, his momentum fearsome.
But Qian Renxue made no unnecessary move.
With flawless control over her Angel Martial Soul and the wealth of combat experience from her previous life, she took a light step to the side.
That single step
put her just beyond the path of Huyan Ye's charge.
His attack missed. Huyan Ye slammed on the brakes and immediately activated his second Soul Ring.
"Second Soul Skill: Diamond Protection!"
A translucent crystalline layer instantly covered his body, greatly strengthening his defenses.
He wheeled around and hurled a punch at Qian Renxue.
By then,
drawing on the combat experience of her previous life,
Qian Renxue had already spotted his weakness.
The Diamond Mammoth was indeed an excellent Martial Soul, giving Huyan Ye tremendous strength.
But he was too slow.
And his stance was completely unstable.
Whoosh.
Qian Renxue darted in.
Without a Soul Ring, all she could do was channel Soul Power into her palm and strike precisely at the joint of Huyan Ye's wrist.
"Ah!"
Huyan Ye cried out.
His arm went numb, and most of its strength vanished in an instant.
At the same time,
Qian Renxue was far from finished.
She shifted again in a quick burst and, taking advantage of her small frame, ducked low and kicked the back of Huyan Ye's knee.
Huyan Ye's face changed.
He lost his balance and pitched face-first to the ground.
His earlier confidence had given way to panic.
He seemed unable to believe what had happened.
Still less had he expected Qian Renxue to fight this way.
He scrambled up, trying to attack again.
But Qian Renxue gave him no chance.
She maneuvered around him with uncanny precision, every strike landing on a weak point.
The Diamond Protection Huyan Ye prided himself on was useless against her pinpoint attacks.
Before long, she had him reeling and stumbling backward.
The sight
left the surrounding students dumbfounded.
They had never imagined that a six-year-old girl without a Soul Ring could dominate a level twenty-five Soul Grandmaster.
Even when Huyan Ye found an opening to counterattack,
his heavy body gave him away. Qian Renxue read every strike and slipped aside with ease.
Her movements flowed without a hitch.
She looked nothing like a six-year-old girl, turning his strength against him again and again.
Her palms struck repeatedly at the vulnerable joints beneath Huyan Ye's defenses.
"Argh!"
Huyan Ye was shaken to the core.
Sweat gradually covered his forehead.
He had thought his level twenty-five Soul Power and two Soul Skills would let him crush her easily.
Instead, he couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes.
"Impossible! You don't even have a Soul Ring! How can you dodge my attacks?"
Huyan Ye shouted in fury,
panic plain in his voice.
Qian Renxue kept her small face set and gave no answer.
Spotting an opening, she dropped low again, ducking beneath Huyan Ye's swinging fist.
At the same time, she swept her right leg out hard,
striking his ankle with a heavy kick.
With a startled cry, Huyan Ye crashed to the ground again.
This time, Qian Renxue gave him no chance to get up.
She flashed forward and appeared before him, her little hand poised at his throat.
The slightest release of Soul Power would crush it.
The entire crowd fell into stunned silence.
Everyone stared, unable to believe their eyes!
A level twenty-five genius of the Elephant Armor Sect had been soundly defeated by a six-year-old girl without a Soul Ring!
It overturned everything they thought they knew about battles between Soul Masters.
"She won just like that? Did I see that right?"
"How did Miss Renxue do it? She didn't even use a Soul Skill!"
"Huyan Ye's Diamond Protection did nothing. Miss Renxue struck every weak point!"
"Is this how powerful the Angel Martial Soul is?"
"Miss Renxue really is incredible. No wonder she's a genius!"
The crowd burst into discussion,
all of them utterly astonished.
