The King of All Weapons

Faced with Ma Rong's mockery.

Bai Zhou's expression did not change in the slightest. He merely glanced at her and said calmly,

"Was I talking to you?"

"You!" Ma Rong's expression instantly froze.

Ding! A major supporting character has suffered +999 mental damage. Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 3850 more to unlock!

Hearing the system notification in his mind, Bai Zhou was immediately somewhat surprised.

He had not expected Ma Rong to be able to provide him with Villain Value as well.

But he quickly understood.

After all, Ma Rong had indeed played a significant role for a period in the latter half of the original story.

Moreover, she was one of Protagonist Chu Yun's women, and even a powerful force behind the destruction of the Bai Family.

It was not surprising that he could obtain Destined Villain Value through her.

However, if that was the case, Bai Zhou felt that he could adjust his strategy for dealing with Ma Rong.

He could properly harvest a wave of rewards from Ma Rong.

At this moment, Ma Rong's eyes also glinted coldly because of Bai Zhou's attitude toward her.

She turned to Liu Bo, who stood at her side, and said,

"Accept his challenge!"

"Huh?" Liu Bo was clearly hesitant.

He cautiously glanced at Bai Zhou's father, Bai Zhennan, who was seated there, then scratched the back of his head and said,

"Isn't this a little inappropriate?"

"Don't worry." Bai Zhou immediately replied,

"I was the one who challenged you. No matter what happens, no one will cause trouble for you."

Ma Rong gritted her teeth even harder.

"Liu Bo, I order you to accept! He contracted an E-rank piece of trash and is courting death himself. What are you afraid of?"

"This..."

Of course, Liu Bo feared Bai Zhou and the Bai Family behind him.

But Bai Zhou himself had said it was fine, and Liu Bo was now a Spirit Master with Bai Family bloodline.

So...

"Fine. I'll accept your challenge."

The moment Liu Bo's words fell,

a soft "whoosh" sounded.

The barrier Bai Zhou had seen once before suddenly spread out.

Bai Zhou also discovered just how wondrous this World Origin Power was.

Previously, in such a large venue, the arena had formed a circular vacuum zone over ten meters in diameter.

Yet now, in the living room of his own home, the diameter of that vacuum zone had been compressed to around seven or eight meters.

On top of that, the living room in Bai Zhou's villa was truly enormous.

Even his parents and aunt, seated nearby, were completely unaffected.

"Interesting."

A gleam of interest had appeared in Bai Zhou's eyes.

That was right. He wanted to know exactly what this World Origin Power was.

But it was definitely not something he could investigate with his current strength.

At this moment, Ma Rong's excited voice rang out.

"Hahaha! Well done, Liu Bo."

Then, she actually stepped forward and looked at Bai Zhou from afar, her tone contemptuous.

"My dear brother, have you gotten so used to being arrogant and domineering that you actually dare to challenge us?"

"Although both of us are A-rank, don't forget that my Spirit Master is A-rank too."

"The effect of a Spirit Master and a Divine Weapon Maiden together is far more than one plus one equals two. It greatly exceeds two."

"If you admit defeat now... your little sister will certainly show mercy for the sake of our sibling bond over the years!"

However, Bai Zhou seemed not to have heard Ma Rong at all.

He simply turned to Lin Wei, who was timidly hiding behind him, and said with a smile,

"Don't be afraid."

But this time, Lin Wei was not silent as before. Instead, she raised her head, looked at Bai Zhou, and said softly,

"I'm not afraid. I'm just a little worried... what if I hurt them? After all, they're your family."

Even Bai Zhou was slightly stunned upon hearing this.

Meanwhile, Ma Rong's expression instantly stiffened.

"What did you say?!"

Ding! A major supporting character has suffered +777 mental damage. Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 3800 more to unlock!

Especially given Lin Wei's timid tone and incomparably sincere voice.

But sincerity truly was a killing move!

The system notification in Bai Zhou's mind had already explained everything!

Ma Rong erupted in fury on the spot.

"Such shameless boasting! You're courting death!"

As her words fell,

a soft "hum" sounded.

Ma Rong's body instantly turned into specks of starlight.

In Liu Bo's hand, they formed a slender, entirely emerald-green sword!

Liu Bo lightly swung the sword in his hand.

A clear confidence hung on his face, yet he still spoke first.

"Young Master Bai, forgive my offense."

But Bai Zhou still ignored him.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Wei immediately closed her eyes as silver light flickered.

A bright, gleaming spear appeared in Bai Zhou's grasp.

Seeing this, Shen Yun, Bai Zhou's mother, who was seated beside Bai Zhennan outside the barrier, slightly raised her brows. A trace of confusion appeared in her eyes as she could not help saying,

"Hiss... This is..."

Hearing his wife's voice, Bai Zhennan turned to look at her.

"What is it?"

Shen Yun slowly shook her head without speaking, but her gaze remained fixed on the spear in Bai Zhou's hand.

The aunt seated nearby felt nothing at all.

She thought her brother and sister-in-law were simply worried about their son.

So she smiled and said,

"Don't worry. Though Rongrong doesn't speak pleasantly, she knows her limits. She won't hurt Zhouzhou."

Yet the proud smile on her face completely revealed what she was thinking.

But just as her words fell,

Bai Zhou spoke within the barrier.

No one had expected him to say,

"Who gave you the nerve to take form?"

"Get down!"

Accompanied by Bai Zhou's shout,

he slammed the spear in his hand heavily against the ground.

With a muffled boom, a terrifying aura shot toward Liu Bo.

The next second, Liu Bo's right hand holding the sword began trembling violently.

With a crisp clang,

the Azure Water Sword, which had clearly already taken form, abruptly fell apart.

It transformed back into Ma Rong's figure.

She fell to the ground with a thud.

Ding! A major supporting character has suffered +999 mental damage. Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 3750 more to unlock!

"What is this?!"

Outside the barrier, Bai Zhennan, Shen Yun, and Bai Zhou's aunt all rose from the sofa at the same time!

Shock filled all three of their eyes.

And not only them.

Liu Bo and Ma Rong, as the people directly involved, were even more shocked.

Liu Bo looked at Ma Rong in disbelief and said,

"Rongrong, what's wrong with you? Weren't we going to fight? Why did you break apart on your own?"

Looking at Liu Bo's confused expression, Ma Rong desperately wanted to roar,

How would I know? If you're asking me, who am I supposed to ask?

However, she still sprang to her feet first and glared furiously at Bai Zhou as she shrieked,

"It was you! What did you do?!"

Listening to Ma Rong's shrill roar,

Bai Zhou smiled lightly as he gently stroked the snow-white spear in his hand and said softly,

"The spear is the king of all weapons."

"Especially when you're merely A-rank."

Then the smile vanished from Bai Zhou's face. A sharp glint appeared in his pupils as he snorted coldly.

"Kneel!"

With a "hum," the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear formed from Lin Wei in his hand immediately let out a soft cry.

With a thud, Ma Rong's body seemed to lose all control as she directly dropped to her knees!

And the same thing unexpectedly happened outside the barrier.

Bai Zhennan and Shen Yun looked at the aunt beside them, who had suddenly become much shorter.

Neither could help saying,

"No, why did you kneel too?"

Ding! A major supporting character has suffered +888 mental damage. Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 3700 more to unlock!

Ding! A major supporting character has suffered +959 mental damage. Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 3650 more to unlock!

Ding! A major supporting character has suffered +999 mental damage. Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 3600 more to unlock!

The system notifications in his mind rang out without pause.

At this moment, Ma Rong knelt on the ground, trembling all over, her face pale.

Her pupils contained not only confusion, but shock as well.

She gritted her teeth and struggled to raise her head. Staring fixedly in Bai Zhou's direction, her voice even carried a hint of hysteria.

"Impossible... This is impossible!"
