"Yan!"
When Xie Yue saw Yan fly backward like a tattered sack and slam into the ground, lying motionless, his expression changed drastically. He cried out and rushed over.
He hurriedly crouched down, reached out to check Yan's breathing, then pulled open his clothes to inspect his injuries. At the sight, Xie Yue's eyes darkened until they looked ready to drip water.
Yan was gravely injured!
Jin Li'er's final punch had been utterly overpowering. The soul power within it had detonated like explosives, displacing Yan's internal organs and breaking more than half the bones in his torso. Not a single part of his body had escaped unscathed.
Even if a healing-type Soul Master treated him immediately, Yan would be bedridden for at least half a month. Even the slightest movement would be a struggle.
"Haah!"
Xie Yue let out a heavy sigh and respectfully bowed to the teacher serving as referee. Then, together with several Sacred Hall Warriors, he carefully lifted Yan onto a stretcher and swiftly carried him away for treatment.
Once that was done, Xie Yue turned and gave Jin Li'er, whose breathing had yet to settle on the platform, a long look filled with wariness. Then he turned and returned to his team.
A chill kept rising in his heart, and one thought surged wildly through his mind: A soul bone! This Jin Li'er definitely has a soul bone!
The power of the move Jin Li'er had unleashed was simply outrageous. A level twenty-seven fighter had faced a level thirty-five opponent and gravely injured him with a single punch. There was no explanation other than the enhancement of a soul bone!
But he had no intention of spouting nonsense about an unfair victory. After all, Yan had also used his Soul Elder-level soul power to suppress her.
