Chapter 309: Defeat (2)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Su Yu's physical body was very strong. With a snort, Liu He's spear vanished as another Divine Character activated. Then, both his hands started turning gold.

"Die!"

He gave up on using his spear and attacked with his palms instead.

Source Break!

Su Yu instantly determined that this was the third move of the Skybreak Technique. With a roar, Su Yu swung his saber forth with the same move.

"Late-stage Great Strength Realm!"

Many people around the ring exclaimed in shock. Damn it! Su Yu had actually reached the late stage! The third move of the Skybreak Technique could only be used by someone at the late-stage Great Strength Realm. This fellow was not only a sixth-stage Great Strength cultivator.

"Seventh stage?"

Wu Lan blinked. This time, she didn't feel too discouraged. She...felt like she had gotten used to this. Yeah. Why would she care? She wasn't a physical cultivator! This didn't matter. When she materialized her willpower, she would be able to push her physical body to the Skysoar Realm as well. She could still catch up to Su Yu!

"Seventh-stage Great Strength Realm?"

Huang Qifeng frowned, but soon, he sneered. Was this the source of Su Yu's confidence? The seventh stage was not weak, but it wasn't anything special either.

In the ring.

Both combatants used the Source Break move, creating a loud rumble as their attacks met. This was a collision between a cultural weapon and a palm. A massive source qi explosion erupted around them.

As its name implied, the Source Break aimed to break the source qi of its target. Source qi undulated all around them intensely like a cyclone.

Liu He's palm was empowered by a Divine Character, allowing it to be as hard as a weapon. Because of that, this collision felt more like a clash between weapons.

Right that moment, his vision swam. With a snort, he unleashed his willpower. The illusion around him shattered with a loud crack. Su Yu's illusion was useless against him!

"Strength Enhancement!"

With a roar, a massive source of strength entered Liu He's palm, instantly breaking the balance of strength between the two. Su Yu could feel a massive force pushing against his weapon, causing even his body to start trembling.

He exhaled and roared, unleashing even more of his strength. All 108 of his acupoints lit up brightly.

"Scram!"

A loud explosion rang out as Su Yu pushed Liu He back before sending a bolt of soundless and formless lightning toward Liu He's head.

Lightning!

Deceit!

With his deceit character, he had concealed the bolt of lightning. The lightning could only be seen when it struck Liu He.

Bang!

Liu He was sent even further back while blood started dripping from his head. His hair was standing erect while his face was torched black.

"You..."

Ninth-stage Great Strength Realm!

Thud!

Sounds of collision rang out all around the ring from all the items that had been dropped by the stunned students. In his shock, Zheng Yunhui had knocked a student in front of him onto the ground, but he didn't even notice that. His head was raised as he looked at Su Yu in stupefaction.

Ninth-stage Great Strength Realm.

108 acupoints were shining brightly. Su Yu...ninth-stage Great Strength Realm? Damn it! Was he seeing things? Beside him, Xia Huyou's mouth was agape with shock. Was this a joke? Even Wan Mingze and the others were dumbstruck.

Ninth-stage Great Strength Realm? Wasn't he supposed to be in the sixth stage? They could accept him being in the seventh stage, but he had actually reached the ninth stage?

Also, how had Su Yu concealed his lightning attack? Liu He didn't even see the attack coming before he was struck. The Divine Character attack had not only harmed his physical body, but also his sea of willpower. Waves of pain were erupting in Liu He's head. Nobody knew if he could even continue fighting after this.

Further away from the crowd.

Liu Hong was happily snacking while enjoying the show when he choked on his food. He stared at Su Yu in astonishment.

"Cough, cough...ninth stage?"

He blinked. Damn it! He thought that Su Yu was at the seventh or the eighth stage at most. Why was the kid at the ninth stage instead? Not only that, but...wasn't the kid's source qi too darn pure? The kid’s source qi felt as pure as the source qi of someone who had spent a dozen years in the Great Strength Realm doing nothing but purifying their source qi.

"Is that bastard Bai Feng aware of this? Why had he never mentioned this before?"

Su Yu's growth was simply too fast. Liu Hong took another bite at the snack in his hand, but the food felt tasteless to him now. Why? Why could an idiot like Bai Feng get such a talented student?

Not only was Bai Feng poor, but he had no friends and was also brainless. He basically had nothing! How could the heavens be so unfair? Damn it! This student alone was enough to allow Bai Feng to retire comfortably.

Looking at Su Yu, Liu Hong's eyes were filled with resentment. Why couldn't any of his students be smart enough to go out and scam tens of thousands of merit points for him as well? Why weren't his students capable of going out and kicking the asses of his rivals?

Meanwhile, all Bai Feng had to do was spend all his time indoors. His student was completely self-sufficient. Why couldn't Liu Hong's student be like that as well? At that moment, Liu Hong's snack felt completely tasteless.

He was indignant.

He felt terrible.

Damn that Bai Feng! Why couldn't he just drop dead?

Su Yu naturally couldn't be bothered with what the others were thinking. He took another step and his body flickered forward before he swung his saber down again. Liu He, with his hair that was standing up from the electrical shock, still maintained some of his consciousness. He instinctively raised his spear to block the incoming attack.

Boom!

The saber struck the spear, unleashing a massive momentum that caused more blood to drip out of Liu He's mouth.

"Strength!"

Liu He roared again as both his arms turned gold. At the same time, his face turned incomparably pale. He swung his spear with renewed strength.

Faced with the incoming attack, Su Yu merely took a step back before vanishing into thin air. Next, a concealed blade wreathed in electrical currents descended on Liu He.

Boom!

The force behind the attack created several new wounds on Liu He's arms while his blood spurted out like fountains. The lightning attack also landed, torching both his arms black.

Then, Su Yu sent a kick out. Even without using the Crushing Mountainsea move, that was still a powerful kick. The kick landed on Liu He's chest, sending him flying away before crashing onto the ground.

He struggled to get back up, but he wasn't able to do so. Blood kept pouring out of his mouth. He raised his head and stared at Su Yu.

Liu He was speechless.

The crowd was speechless.

Defeat.

Liu He had been defeated.

"Thank you for the match."

Su Yu put his saber away and cupped his fists together in greeting. As he did so, his white clothes fluttered about. The fight was not able to leave so much as a crease on his clothes before it was already over.

Su Yu had won.

He had defeated Liu He who was ranked 84th in the ranking. The crowd could see that he hadn't even used his full strength. He had defeated this opponent easily. He had a cultivation of the ninth-stage Great Strength Realm.

His source qi was incomparably pure. His physical body was incomparably strong. In fact, his physical strength was enough for him to overcome Liu He physically.

His willpower wasn't too strong, but everyone could see that his willpower had still surpassed the 60 percent mark. He also had at least one second tier Divine Character and multiple other Divine Characters. His sea of willpower was also extremely stable. Liu He's Divine Character had not been able to destabilize Su Yu's willpower.

Was this real?

Wasn't this a new student?

Who among the new students could still be his match?

Wan Mingze's expression was incomparably solemn. Beside him, Hu Qiusheng inhaled in astonishment while Xia Chan was clenching her fists and biting her own lips in indignation. None of them was willing to accept this.

Nevertheless, they had no choice but to admit that as of this moment, Su Yu had indeed surpassed them.

An intense battle intent rose within their hearts. These freaks, Zheng Yunhui included, had nothing to say. However, every single one of them was emanating an intense fighting spirit. So intense was their fighting spirit that even some of the new students near them had to move away from discomfort.

As the crowd looked at the new student in the ring and the new students in the crowd, they only had a single thought in their minds. Why...were the new students this year so terrifying?

Meanwhile, Jia Mingzhen looked at Su Yu before looking at Wan Mingze and the others. He laughed. This was too interesting. Was there even a need for them to motivate these youngsters? These kids were so motivated that they felt like a timed bomb that was about to explode.

After Su Yu's performance today, it was impossible for Wan Mingze and the others to remain patient. Jia Mingzhen reckoned that after Su Yu was done with his matches, even more old students were going to suffer today.

The Top 100 Ranking was going to be turned upside down today.

In the ring.

Su Yu was standing there in his elegant white outfit.

At this moment, nobody viewed him as a clueless young man anymore. He was an expert. At the very least, he was an expert among his peers.

"Senior Brother Liu..."

Su Yu's gaze was focused on Liu He. After shaking his head, Liu He was finally able to get back on his feet. However, his head still felt light. The sharp pain in his chest also constantly reminded him of his broken ribs.

Looking at Su Yu, he released a self-mocking laugh. Who was the piece of trash here? He still wouldn't admit that he was the piece of trash. What did the result of this fight indicate, then? It indicated that Su Yu was truly much more talented than him. There was a reason why Bai Feng had accepted Su Yu as a student. Who wouldn't want to have a student like that?

"I lost."

Liu He forced himself to smile.

"I wouln't be able to accept my defeat against anyone else. Those people are merely a bunch of old foxes that are only relying on their age to defeat me. It is only a matter of time before I surpass them. As for you..."

Liu He's tone was slightly sorrowful, but he still finished his words, "I can accept it."

There was no reason for him to not accept this defeat. Su Yu was younger than him and had cultivated for a shorter time than him. And Su Yu had probably received far less support and resources as well. His sole backer was the multiple character faction that was also a constant target of suppression.

If he couldn't even accept a defeat in the hands of an opponent like this, then a defeat he could accept would probably not exist in the world.
