Murderous intent, an undisguised murderous intent!
This punch contained over two hundred and fifty kilograms of force. If it landed on Yao Yue's heart, it would definitely be enough to kill him!
The teacher, who was acting as the referee, immediately shouted, "Stop!"
He wanted to intervene, but he was too far away. It was already too late.
Everyone's expression changed drastically. It was as if they could already see Yao Yue dying on the stage.
However, in the nick of time, Yao Yue rolled to the side and narrowly dodged Shi Gangchong's attack!
Bang!
Shi Gangchong's punch landed on the stage with a dull thud. A faint fist imprint was left on the stone slab!
The stone slab was abnormally thick, yet a fist imprint was left on it. This was enough to show how terrifying Shi Gangchong's attack was!
Shi Gangchong didn't manage to hit Yao Yue, but he continued to attack. He threw seven or eight punches in succession, forcing Yao Yue to almost fall off the stage.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats.
They didn't expect the battle to be so exciting and intense.
Yao Yue had nowhere to run. If he rolled to the side, he would definitely fall off the stage. However, if he didn't roll to the side, he would have to take Shi Gangchong's fatal punch!
"Haha, you have nowhere to run. Get down from the stage, or you'll die!" Shi Gangchong laughed maniacally.
His fist was filled with unbearable pain. The strength behind it was abnormally domineering. It wasn't something that any Yuan cultivator could withstand.
"You want to kill me? You're the one who forced me to be ruthless!" Yao Yue cursed in his heart. He finally mustered all of his strength.
He crossed his arms in front of his chest and took Shi Gangchong's punch head-on.
The terrifying force behind the punch landed on Yao Yue's arm, almost fracturing it. Fortunately, Yao Yue's body already had the potential to transform into a demon beast, so he was able to endure it.
Yao Yue endured the pain and began to counterattack.
He lifted his leg and sent Shi Gangchong flying. Then, he finally unleashed his hidden killing move.
His entire body shot up like a bow, and his eyes turned scarlet like a beast's. His fist blasted out without any fancy moves.
Mad Kill Fist, the number one killing move, Mad Door Kill!
Yao Yue's Yuanli had already reached the high grade Yuanli Realm, and he could unleash a force of one hundred and fifty Jin. With his strength at the peak of the low grade Intermediate Demon, he could unleash a force of one hundred and eighty Jin. Together, he could unleash a force of one hundred and thirty Jin.
Yao Yue was furious. Since the other party wanted to put him on the spot, he had to return the favor!
Shi Gangchong was still a Primary General, but he was thrown into the air by Yao Yue and lost his balance. He didn't even have a chance to dodge.
He looked on helplessly as Yao Yue's swift counterattack landed right in front of him.
Bang!
Ah!
Shi Gangchong was sent flying like a broken kite. His miserable shriek resounded in all directions as blood spurted out like a fountain.
The power of this punch was incomparably tyrannical, and Shi Gangchong was directly sent flying off the stage, scaring the surrounding youths into scattering, allowing him to fall heavily onto the ground, raising a cloud of dust!
Silence!
Absolute silence!
Everyone held their breaths, and no one made the slightest sound.
This reversal in the blink of an eye came too quickly, and this punch was too domineering and terrifying, shocking everyone present!
In the end, the youths near Shi Gangchong were the first to cry out.
"Heavens!
Shi Gangchong's face is smashed. What a terrifying punch! "
"Disgusting. His nose is broken, and there's so much blood. What a miserable defeat!"
"I wonder if he's still alive. Otherwise, Yao Yue would probably be expelled from the academy."
"What a terrifying punch. It's enough to challenge a real general. It's best if we don't provoke Yao Yue in the future."
Yao Yue panted and said to the referee, "Teacher, please announce the result."
The referee frowned and said, "Wait a moment. I'll check if he's still alive."
After saying that, he jumped off the stage and rushed to Shi Gangchong's side. He was shocked at first, but after checking Shi Gangchong's aura, he took out a pill and shoved it into Shi Gangchong's mouth.
"Yao Yue is the victor!" The referee announced before leaving in a hurry with the injured Shi Gangchong.
As long as no one was killed in a duel in the academy, nothing would go wrong.
This was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. It was a world where the strong reigned supreme.
Only those who stood out among the geniuses would be considered geniuses among geniuses, and only then would they be nurtured by the academy.
"Haha, I knew Boss was mighty. You're too powerful!" Guan Zhangyun laughed and ran towards Yao Yue who was in the arena.
Guan Changyun wanted to give Yao Yue a bear hug, but Yao Yue sent him flying with a kick. "Scram!"
He couldn't stand Guan Changyun's excessive "intimacy". Sometimes, he even wondered if Guan Changyun was gay.
Guan Changyun didn't mind. He smiled excitedly and waved at the youths below, as if he was the victor of the duel.
Zhang Mengfei smiled bitterly and said, "This guy is really shameless."
Just as Yao Yue was about to leave the stage, a light breeze blew by. A faint fragrance drifted in the air as a beautiful woman silently appeared beside Yao Yue.
"Sister Lan!" Guan Zhangyun immediately revealed a perverted expression and called out softly.
However, in the next moment, his expression almost collapsed. He looked even uglier than someone who had swallowed a fly.
Lan Jing walked over to Yao Yue and said, "You are so handsome and strong. I like you."
Her blatant declaration didn't mean much. Then, her watery eyes kissed Yao Yue lightly, causing the youths below the stage who hadn't left to cry out in surprise.
Then, with a red face, she quickly left as if she was running away.
"Oh, what did I just see? Lan Jing, she actually did something like that!"
"My goddess, my heart is broken!"
"How shameless! She actually confessed to Yao Yue. He belongs to me. Lan Jing, that little vixen, can forget about snatching him away!"
"I didn't expect him to be so strong on top of being handsome. Even I am tempted!"
The youths were in an uproar.
Yao Yue's popularity had also been boosted in this battle!
Yao Yue hurriedly jumped off the stage, wanting to leave immediately.
Guan Changyun shouted, "Boss, you have hurt my heart. I want to fight you!"
Yao Yue naturally wouldn't care about Guan Zhangyun. This guy's legs couldn't move when he saw a slightly beautiful woman. He was just jealous right now.
Of course, Yao Yue didn't expect Lan Jing, who had always been shy, to do something like that in front of so many people. It was truly unexpected.
"Looks like being handsome is also a sin!" Yao Yue sighed inwardly.
If Guan Changyun heard this, he would definitely fight Yao Yue to the death. Yao Yue was still acting so smug after obtaining Ping Yi.
Yao Yue had only taken a few steps when he stopped again. His eyes flashed with an incomparably strong killing intent.
Guan Changyun and Zhang Mengfei, who had followed behind Yao Yue, sensed the change. They walked to Yao Yue's side and looked at the people blocking Yao Yue's path.
"Hey, who are you people? Why are you blocking my boss's path?" Guan Changyun shouted.
The people directly ignored Guan Changyun. One of them smiled at Yao Yue and said, "My family's idiot, I didn't expect you to play the fool for so many years and even successfully enter the Imperial Academy. You have hidden quite a lot of ambition!"
The person who spoke was Yao Mo, Yao Yue's Third Brother. Unfortunately, he had never acknowledged Yao Yue as a member of the Yao family. He only treated Yao Yue as a servant and an idiot. That was all.
"Scram!"
Yao Yue's eyes were burning with anger. He clenched his fists so tightly that cracking sounds could be heard. One could easily imagine how much hatred he had for the Yao family.
For so many years, he had been treated like a pig or a dog in the Yao family. He was beaten, scolded, and ridiculed by others. They had never treated him as a human. It was impossible for him to have a good impression of the Yao family.
Now, he was enduring silently. It was as if he was waiting for the day when he grew strong enough to defeat the Yao family. He wanted to let them experience the feeling of being ridiculed and tortured by others.
"Yao Mo, your family's idiot has quite the temper. No wonder he dared to beat up my useless Third Brother. He's really something," Zhu Fengluo sneered. He then added, "Why don't I teach this slave of three surnames a lesson for you?"
After saying that, he raised his hand and was about to slap Yao Yue.
Zhu Fengluo had derived the presence of a general, making him a true Prime General. Unlike Shi Gangchong, who was a pseudo Prime General with a forbidden technique, Zhu Fengluo's palm was filled with surging energy. If he slapped down, even Yao Yue would not be able to withstand it.
However, Yao Yue was not afraid. Instead, he met the attack head-on and punched out with all his strength.
Pa!
Yao Yue was forced back several steps. His arm felt numb, but Zhu Fengluo did not even take a step back.
He's so strong. He's much stronger than the Yao family's old butler! Yao Yue thought to himself.
In the past, he had been able to withstand one or two blows from the Yao family's old butler with his strength of more than two hundred jin. He had thought that his current strength was enough to contend with a Prime General, but it seemed that he was still far from it.
"Looks like you're on the verge of becoming a Prime General. It's a pity that you won't have any more prospects in the future!" Zhu Fengluo sighed. He gathered his strength again and slapped at Yao Yue.
His palm flickered with blue light as his energy surged like a tidal wave. This palm strike was even more powerful than the previous one.
Just as the palm strike was about to land on Yao Yue, someone stepped in front of Yao Yue and collided with Zhu Fengluo's palm strike.
Zhu Fengluo and the other party both took a step back. Zhu Fengluo glared at the newcomer and said, "Who are you? How dare you interfere in my business!"
The person standing in front of Yao Yue was none other than Zhang Mengfei. Just as Yao Yue had guessed, he was already a Prime General.
"Attacking my brother is the same as attacking me. If you have the guts, let's fight on the stage. Life and death!" Zhang Mengfei shouted, revealing his domineering side for the first time.
His shout immediately attracted the attention of many people.
"Fine, fine. As your senior brother, I'll have to teach you ignorant newbies a lesson," Zhu Fengluo said angrily.
"Fengluo, let them off for now. Their teacher is here. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future," Yao Mo said to Zhu Fengluo after glancing in a certain direction.
