An Undisputed Duel

He already had Dugu Yan as his girlfriend, yet he still wanted to pursue Rongrong.

At that moment, Gu Rong had made up his mind to have a serious talk with Ning Fengzhi and Jian Ren once they returned. Under no circumstances could Rongrong be allowed to join Blue Tyrant Academy!

Then, urged on by Liu Erlong, Xiao Yu finally stepped onto the arena.

Looking at Xiao Yu across from him, Yu Tianheng took a deep breath.

Then he slowly spoke.

"Xiao Yu, first, I need to thank you. Your words last time completely woke me up. You were right—Dugu Yan is not an item, and I have no right to use her as a wager. This battle has nothing to do with anyone else. It's just you and me! As long as I defeat you and prove that I'm stronger than you, that will be enough!"

Hearing Yu Tianheng speak so earnestly, everyone present nodded slightly.

For Tianheng to understand such things at his age was no simple feat.

He still had a long way to go, but all he lacked was more worldly experience to deepen that understanding. At his core, he already understood most of it.

Xiao Yu smiled when he heard those words, then slowly spoke.

"Those are pretty words, but there's one problem!"

"What problem?"

Yu Tianheng asked in astonishment.

"I don't think you can beat me! Yu Tianheng, you need to understand that ideals are ideals, and reality is reality. Everything you said rests on the premise that you can defeat me. But what if you can't? Yu Tianheng, reality is cruel!"

Xiao Yu spoke calmly.

Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Yu Tianheng's expression froze. The conviction he had painstakingly built up instantly crumbled!

Because that was also what Yu Tianheng feared most.

Seeing Yu Tianheng's slightly dazed look and Yu Luomian's increasingly gloomy expression at the side, Xiao Yu spoke again.

"Alright, alright, enough talk. Let's get this started! The sooner we finish, the sooner we can call it a day. Xiao Yu, level twenty-six Assault System Battle Soul Master. Martial Soul: Sleeping Dragon! Please advise!"

Soon after Xiao Yu finished speaking, two spirit rings gleaming with purple light appeared beneath his feet.

The purple radiance made the already extraordinary Xiao Yu seem even more mysterious and imposing.

At the same time, Sleeping Dragon appeared at Xiao Yu's feet. Its body had grown more muscular, its claws sharper, and the golden patterns on its body more numerous!

"Roar!!"

Soon, the roar caused everyone present to change expression slightly, because it made them all feel pressure.

Gu Rong, especially, whose Martial Soul was the Bone Dragon, actually felt a tremor rising from the depths of his soul!

But when Gu Rong saw the spirit rings beneath Xiao Yu's feet, he could no longer contain himself. Shock was written all over his face.

This kid...

His first and second spirit rings were both purple thousand-year spirit rings?!

How was that possible?!

That completely defied the theories of the Soul Master world!

How had he done it?!

Wasn't he afraid that his body would be unable to bear it and explode to death?

Ning Rongrong, standing beside Gu Rong, immediately revealed a look of admiration in her eyes.

His spirit rings were all thousand-year ones. So cool.

While Gu Rong was still staring in shock, Yu Tianheng trembled when he saw the two purple spirit rings beneath Xiao Yu's feet and began to speak.

"Y-Yu Tianheng, level twenty-nine Assault System Battle Soul Master. Martial Soul: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!"

"Crackle!!"

In an instant, as two yellow spirit rings appeared beneath Yu Tianheng's feet, he completed Martial Soul Possession. White lightning began to flicker across his body.

But after completing Martial Soul Possession, Yu Tianheng's face was somewhat pale.

There was no trace of fighting spirit left in him.

Compared to Xiao Yu's two thousand-year spirit rings, his own standard hundred-year yellow spirit rings were simply far too inferior!

"Come on, I'll let you make the first move! And I'll show you what a true genius is!"

Xiao Yu spoke calmly, his arms folded across his chest.

Not only Xiao Yu, even Sleeping Dragon at his feet, upon seeing that its opponent was such a weakling, simply lay down without moving. Its eyes were filled with human-like disdain.

Seeing this master and servant look down on him so much, Yu Tianheng was completely enraged.

Consumed by anger, Yu Tianheng immediately cast all other emotions to the back of his mind. His first spirit ring began to flash, and a dragon claw wreathed in azure-white crackling lightning formed over his left hand as he charged rapidly toward Xiao Yu.

"Hmph! You dare look down on me..."

"First Spirit Skill: Thunder Dragon Claw!!"

"Crackle!!!"

Soon, terrifying lightning flickered continuously over Yu Tianheng's dragon claw.

At that moment, Yu Tianheng seemed to have transformed into a bolt of lightning himself.

He closed in on Xiao Yu at incredible speed.

Watching the Thunder Dragon Claw draw near—

Xiao Yu remained calm.

His second spirit ring began to light up.

"Second Spirit Skill: Holy Light Descends!!"

Soon, golden holy light descended from the heavens and shone directly upon Xiao Yu and Sleeping Dragon.

It finally formed a cylindrical golden defensive barrier!

"Hiss!!!"

Feeling the dense power of light, Gu Rong could not help drawing in a sharp breath.

Such pure light power made him, with his dark-attributed Martial Soul, feel intense disgust.

Ning Rongrong beside him, on the other hand, had eyes that shone brilliantly at the sight!

"Crackle!!"

"Bang!!"

Soon, amid everyone's excited gazes, Yu Tianheng's Thunder Dragon Claw slammed fiercely into Xiao Yu's shield.

Yet the scene they had imagined, of the dragon claw shattering the barrier, did not occur. Instead, Tianheng himself was sent flying back by the recoil.

As for the shield protecting Xiao Yu, it remained completely unscathed. Yu Tianheng's full-powered Thunder Dragon Claw had not left even the slightest mark on it—not even a hairline crack!

Seeing this, Yu Tianheng's face filled with shock. His spirit skill had actually been completely useless?!

Even if those were thousand-year spirit rings, his Soul Power was stronger than Xiao Yu's. The gap couldn't possibly be this great, could it?

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!!!"

Refusing to accept it, Yu Tianheng charged at Xiao Yu once more.

Both his first and second spirit rings began to flash.

"First Spirit Skill: Thunder Dragon Claw!!"

"Second Spirit Skill: Thunderous Might!!"

Soon, Yu Tianheng seemed like divine punishment descending in the form of heavenly lightning.

He advanced toward Xiao Yu.

Watching Yu Tianheng go all out, Xiao Yu yawned and spoke indifferently to Sleeping Dragon.

"Sleeping Dragon, finish him. First Spirit Skill: Bright Breath!"

"Roar!!"

As Xiao Yu's first spirit skill lit up with dazzling purple light,

a golden breath shot toward Yu Tianheng.
