"Tang San, since you so desire a fight with me, then come as you wish."
Cheng Xiao's face was cold as he looked at Tang San. He then flicked his fingers through the air, and an invisible blade sliced through the ropes binding Tang San. Tang San's body immediately fell to the ground.
"Come to me, Authority of the Dominator!"
As his words fell, Cheng Xiao spread his five fingers and violently tugged Tang San's body. The fierce suction force dragged Tang San over without any resistance.
Being seized like an object, Tang San's eyes darkened with killing intent. He stared at the approaching Cheng Xiao with a calm expression, but within his eyes burned an extreme murderous intent.
"Cheng Xiao, you've repeatedly humiliated my teacher, showing no respect for the master; you teamed up with Dugu Bo to seize such a precious land. In my eyes, you've already chosen the path to death!"
With that, Tang San clenched his right fist. Pale blue spirit power condensed around his fist, carrying a cutting wind sound as he hurled it at Cheng Xiao.
Cheng Xiao's expression remained cold as he sensed the incoming spirit power. He stayed in place, then stamped his right foot violently on the ground. A deep footprint pressed into the earth as a surge of violent energy erupted.
His fist clenched, dark purple smoke coiling around it, he paused briefly, then collided heavily with Tang San's punch.
Bang!
The moment their fists collided, Tang San's right fist radiated a glossy luster. Beneath him, his first spirit ring activated, and his first soul skill wrapped into action.
Numerous sturdy Blue Silver Grass vines spiraled wildly toward Cheng Xiao under Tang San's control. But just as this scene unfolded, things shifted.
Cheng Xiao's left hand suddenly held a long blade wreathed in black smoke. In Tang San's disbelieving eyes, black streaks flashed across the air.
The next moment, all the Blue Silver Grass vines were sliced into fragments—as if plants collided with a sharp blade, breaking instantly on contact.
"Chaos Blades!" Cheng Xiao shouted.
A voice only he could hear reverberated in his mind, and the fist that had touched Tang San's exploded into thousands of strikes in an instant.
Crack!
With a muffled sound, Tang San's chest bones quietly shattered.
Then his body, like a kite cut from its string, smashed heavily into a tree behind him. The impact was immense, breaking the tree that supported the three bound Golden Iron Triangle members.
Tang San himself coughed up a mouthful of blood, which arched beautifully in the air before splattering onto the ground.
Seeing Tang San spitting blood, the Master's head buzzed and his vision darkened. Over the years, he had hoped Tang San could prove the importance of the Martial Soul Theory. Having no children, he had treated Tang San as his own. Now his child was bleeding, how could he bear it?
"No, Xiao San, Xiao San!"
Thanks to the broken tree, the Master was able to reach Tang San. His chest heaved with each breath, glaring furiously at Cheng Xiao.
"Cheng Xiao, he is your classmate. You studied together at Nottingham Academy for six years, sparring countless times."
"I've witnessed all your sparring, but today, you struck Tang San so heavily. Do you feel no guilt? If I had known today would be like this, I should never have brought you along to soul hunting to become a spirit master!"
"You ungrateful beast, you deserve the Five Thunder Execution from heaven, a slow death by dismemberment!"
As the Master finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly struck. Before he could react, black smoke enveloped him, and the armored giant dragon Nash appeared before him.
"Insignificant humans, daring to insult my king!"
With that, Nash swung a fist, the terrifying force distorting the surrounding air.
Boom!
The Master's face twisted grotesquely, and he was blasted away—not backward, but directly hurled through the air.
For such ants who insult the king, Nash would not show mercy. That the Master wasn't smashed into a pulp was only because the king had not ordered it.
"小 Gang!"
The sudden scene left Liu Erlong and Fland stunned. By the time they reacted, the Master had already been thrown away.
Seeing their comrade in such a state, Liu Erlong's anger surged. Her spirit power concentrated, ready to battle Nash to the death.
However, the moment her spirit manifested, Nash merely glanced at her. The suppressive power of his superior dragon lineage instantly shattered Liu Erlong's spirit.
"No!"
Seeing Liu Erlong's spirit break, Fland quickly stepped in front of her. "Don't hurt Erlong! Kill me instead!"
Seeing Fland shielding Liu Erlong, Nash instinctively raised his hand to strike him down. But at that moment, someone patted his shoulder.
"Nash, well done."
Cheng Xiao stopped Nash's attack, stepping forward to Fland with a forced smile, "Dean Fland, long time no see."
Fland was slightly stunned. Looking at Cheng Xiao's face, he hesitated, then slowly replied, "Long time no see."
"I remember last time, you threatened me. This time, things seem reversed." Cheng Xiao suddenly smiled, his perfect white teeth making Fland's hair stand on end, his guts churn in fear.
"Last time was a misunderstanding. You know, when students were attacked, as the Dean, I had to…"
"Dean Fland, you are indeed a responsible dean. How about this: for your relationship with Teacher Qin Ming, I'll give you a chance."
Cheng Xiao gestured to the unconscious Master far away, smiling, "See, today, you didn't need to be involved. But your good friend, to save his precious disciple, dragged you into this mess. And now, you're in my hands."
"Next, if you follow my instructions, I'll plead with Senior Dugu to let you leave here. How about that?"
Upon hearing this, Fland trembled, his eyes filled with fear. He had guessed what Cheng Xiao wanted him to do. But could he really do it? To survive, he had to act against his friend… only to gain a chance at life.
After hesitating, Fland looked at Liu Erlong, pale and wavering, then at Tang San on the ground, clutching his twisted arm and gritting his teeth.
Taking a deep breath, Fland made up his mind. To survive, the Master had to be sacrificed.
"Cheng Xiao, I agree to your demand. As long as you allow us to leave safely, I'll do anything."
