Emotions surged, electric currents intensified!

Lin Ximeng's sweeping kick was forcibly knocked aside.

Her body tilted to one side, and she staggered, nearly falling to the floor. The blue-green light dissipated from her leg, and the scale-like patterns grew dull.

A sharp gleam flashed in Bai Yushan's eyes.

He drew back his right hand and clenched his fist, the muscles in his arm tightening to their limit. Electric currents gathered over his fist, forming a crackling ball of light the size of a fist.

He unleashed a punch.

His fist hurtled toward Lin Ximeng's abdomen, wreathed in electric light.

This punch carried even greater force than before, so much that it compressed the air into a visible depression. The wind from his fist was as sharp as a blade, pressing Lin Ximeng's clothes tight against her body.

Lin Ximeng had no time to dodge.

Her body was still tilting, and she had yet to regain her balance. She simply had no time to make any defensive move.

The fist slammed into her abdomen.

"Thud!"

Another muffled impact rang out.

This time, it was louder and deeper than before, like someone striking a thick piece of leather with an iron hammer.

Lin Ximeng doubled over like a bent bow. Her eyes went wide and round, and her mouth opened, but no sound came out.

Agonizing pain surged from her abdomen, racing along her nerves to her brain. It was not a surface pain, but the pain of her internal organs being shaken, penetrating her marrow and piercing her heart.

She retreated three steps.

Each step left a deep footprint in the floor, shattering the stone tiles and sending cracks spreading in every direction.

After three steps, she stopped.

But her body was still trembling.

Bai Yushan withdrew his fist and stood where he was. His chest heaved violently, his breathing rapid and heavy, like a wild beast that had just finished fighting. The light in his eyes had not faded; instead, it burned even more intensely.

"Teacher, do you have any stronger moves?"

His voice carried a yearning for more.

Lin Ximeng clutched her abdomen, gulping down breaths. She looked at Bai Yushan, her eyes filled with horror and disbelief.

What kind of monster was this child?

Her first Soul Skill had actually been forcibly broken by a six-year-old child, and she had even been overpowered in strength. Had she not experienced it herself, she would never have believed such a thing.

The children in the classroom were all dumbstruck.

They huddled beneath desks and hid in corners, their faces deathly pale and their bodies trembling. A few of the more timid children had already started crying, but their sobs were very, very quiet, like the whine of mosquitoes.

Tang Wulin sat in his seat, staring at Bai Yushan without blinking.

His expression was complicated.

Shock, wariness, and something he could not quite put into words.

This crazy classmate of his was actually this strong.

Lin Ximeng took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the agonizing pain in her abdomen. Her gaze changed. Her earlier anger vanished, replaced by a serious gravity, as though she were facing a formidable enemy.

The two Yellow Soul Rings lit up again.

But this time, the second Soul Ring lit up as well.

"Bai Yushan, you've truly surprised me."

Lin Ximeng's voice was soft, but every word seemed to nail itself into the air.

"But you've forgotten that I'm the teacher, and you're the student. This is a school, not a place for you to run wild."

Blue-green light surged from her body once more.

This time, the light was more intense and more solid than before. Scale-like patterns spread from her face to her neck, then onto her arms, densely packed and gleaming with a cold luster.

Her body became even more supple, muscle fibers shifting beneath her skin as strength poured endlessly from within her.

Bai Yushan's eyes lit up.

"Yes, that's it. That's the feeling."

His voice carried an excitement he could not suppress, and the electric currents over his body crackled as though sensing their master's emotions.

Lin Ximeng moved.

Her body slithered through the air like a snake, so fast it was difficult to follow with the naked eye. Blue-green light flowed over her body, forming bands of light.

Bai Yushan moved as well.

Electric currents leaped over his body with a series of crackles. He pushed off with his legs, leaving a crater in the floor as he charged toward Lin Ximeng.

The two collided in the center of the classroom.

Fists and feet clashed, producing a string of muffled impacts.

Bai Yushan's fist, wreathed in electric currents, slammed toward Lin Ximeng. Her body twisted like a snake, narrowly evading it. Her palm chopped toward Bai Yushan's neck, and he tilted his head, letting it sweep past his ear.

The two traded blows, locked in a fierce battle.

Desks and chairs were knocked over, textbooks were torn apart, and dust filled the classroom.

All the other children had retreated to the very back of the classroom, huddling together and trembling. They watched the two figures battling fiercely in the center of the room, their faces deathly pale, not daring to breathe loudly.

Tang Wulin shielded several classmates as he backed away, his eyes filled with gravity.

He could tell that although Lin Ximeng was fighting Bai Yushan, she had been holding back all along. She was controlling the power of her Soul Skills, her Soul Power output, and the angle and force of her attacks.

She was afraid of hurting Bai Yushan.

But Bai Yushan was different.

This lunatic put all his strength into every punch and showed no mercy with any kick. The madness about him grew increasingly intense, and the light in his eyes grew ever brighter, as though he wanted to tear the whole world apart.

Lin Ximeng sensed it too.

The pressure on her grew greater and heavier. Bai Yushan's attacks became increasingly fierce and savage, like a wild beast that had broken its reins, utterly beyond control.

Her Soul Power was being depleted, and her stamina was falling, yet Bai Yushan's strength kept climbing.

This child's strength was actually soaring during battle.

Lin Ximeng gritted her teeth and made her decision.

Her second Soul Ring lit up.

Blue-green light surged from her body, forming a layer of scale-like armor over her. The armor was thin but tough, as smooth as a snake's scales.

She twisted her body, slipping past Bai Yushan's fist like a snake, and struck her palm toward his back.

Bai Yushan had no time to turn around.

But he did not dodge.

His back took Lin Ximeng's palm strike head-on.

"Smack!"

A crisp impact rang out.

Bai Yushan stumbled forward two steps, but his grin widened.

"That feels great!"

He turned around and hurled a punch at Lin Ximeng's face.

Lin Ximeng tilted her head aside, and the fist swept past her cheek, stirring a fierce gust. Her palm struck toward Bai Yushan's chest again. He did not dodge, taking this palm strike head-on as well.

"Smack!"

Another crisp impact rang out.

Bai Yushan swayed, but his smile grew even brighter.

"Again!"

His voice echoed through the classroom, carrying an almost insane exhilaration.

As the physical pressure mounted and his emotions surged, the cells within Bai Yushan's body rubbed together more intensely, and electric currents constantly stimulated every last part of his body!
