"Show off your spirit skills?" The younger brother from Elephant Armor Academy looked even more puzzled.
"In other words, he's insulting us." Hu Yanli said angrily.
"Insult?"
The other six members of Elephant Armor Academy were stunned for a moment. After figuring out the problem, they stared at Ye Feng with hostility.
Elephant Armor Academy was one of the five elemental academies, and its combat power ranked among the top five in the Heaven Dou Empire Division. They were aiming for the top three in the competition.
With Ye Feng's strength, he could have crushed Elephant Armor Academy, but he didn't. Wasn't this a blatant insult to them?
Ye Feng put away his external spirit bone, his Nine Hearts Mysterious Tang spirit, and his Xuanyuan Sword. He smiled. "He's right. I am showing off my spirit skills. Alright, let's start the real battle now. To avoid being accused of bullying you, I won't use my spirit or my external spirit bone."
"Not using your spirit?"
"And not even your external spirit bone?"
The seven members of Elephant Armor Academy looked at Ye Feng in disbelief.
"Yeah." Ye Feng nodded affirmatively.
Well.
The seven from Elephant Armor Academy were stunned. To them, Ye Feng's words weren't a show of mercy—they were pure humiliation. A naked insult.
"Damn it! Brother, I'm gonna knock this arrogant bastard out!"
A member of Elephant Armor Academy's team rushed at Ye Feng, swinging his fists with full force.
The scene that Yu Xiaogang and Huo Wu had expected finally played out.
Ye Feng didn't dodge. Instead, he actually threw a punch to meet the attack head-on.
Bang!
A loud impact echoed.
Ye Feng didn't move an inch. The Elephant Armor Academy member, on the other hand, was sent flying backward. He slid across the ground, leaving a deep trail.
Ye Feng lightly tapped his toes against the floor and shot forward like a bullet. He closed in and landed a punch square in the guy's chest.
Ye Feng's physical strength had reached 257 points after his ice-and-fire body tempering in the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire. His total spirit ring age exceeded 100,000 years, giving him the strength of a Spirit Emperor at level 60.
Meanwhile, the Elephant Armor Academy member only had Spirit Power level 39 and three spirit rings. He was no match for Ye Feng at all.
After taking that punch, the poor bastard spat out blood and crashed to the ground, unconscious.
"Atai!"
Hu Yanli shouted in panic. He looked at Ye Feng, his face twisting with rage. "Set up the artillery! Avenge Atai!"
As soon as Hu Yanli gave the order, the remaining team members moved in unison. Two of them quickly set up their Mammoth Spiral Cannon stance.
"Mammoth Spiral Bullet—loaded!"
The two team members clasped each other's arms and leaped into the cannon formation, spinning rapidly in the air.
"Rotation speed at 100%! Barrel kinetic energy at 100%! Fire!"
Hu Yanli swung his fist, launching the spinning duo like cannonballs straight at Ye Feng.
"Innocent."
Ye Feng smirked and tapped his toes, launching himself into the air, easily dodging the attack.
However, the moment the spiraling cannonball missed, it suddenly transformed into a Blade Wheel, curving midair and chasing Ye Feng down.
Second Form: Mammoth Blade Wheel!
Ye Feng had already anticipated this move. He reached out and caught the Mammoth Blade Wheel with his bare hands.
"Hah! Catching a spinning blade with his hands? That kid's hands are gonna be useless!" Huyan Zhen, the leader of the Elephant Armor Sect, sneered.
But the next moment, his expression stiffened.
Ye Feng's hands weren't damaged at all. In fact, he firmly held the Mammoth Blade Wheel in place.
"What kind of monstrous defense is this?" Huyan Zhen's brows furrowed.
Blade Wheel Disintegration—
Third Form: Mammoth Lock!
The two spinning team members abruptly separated. One took advantage of the falling momentum, lunging at Ye Feng in midair. Like a judo master, he locked Ye Feng's legs with his own and grabbed his arms, attempting to bend him backward and snap his spine.
"What the hell—?!"
The Elephant Armor Academy member was dumbfounded.
No matter how much he tried to exert force, Ye Feng didn't even budge.
Bang!
Ye Feng and the Elephant Armor Academy member crashed to the ground. Ye Feng smiled. "My turn."
Ye Feng grinned, firmly gripping his opponent's wrists. With a sudden burst of power, he broke free from the lock and immediately counter-locked the guy's legs in return.
Then, Ye Feng curled his body like a bow and slammed the Elephant Armor Academy member into the ground with a brutal counterattack!
"AHHH!"
A gut-wrenching scream echoed. There was a clear snapping sound. Even if this guy recovered, he'd be dealing with chronic injuries for the rest of his life.
Ye Feng defeated another Elephant Armor Sect member. He turned toward the remaining opponents. His true goal in this fight wasn't just to win—it was to send a message.
"Now it's my turn to attack." Ye Feng smiled.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Ye Feng's movements were like a ghost's—light, quick, and unpredictable. His speed rivaled that of a Spirit King from the Agility Attack Branch.
The Elephant Armor Academy's strengths and weaknesses were equally obvious. Their brute strength and defense were top-tier, but their speed and attack flexibility were absolute dogshit.
Under Ye Feng's relentless assault, four more members were beaten to a pulp, each one knocked out cold.
Now, only Hu Yanli remained.
Third Spirit Skill: Suppress and Kill!
Hu Yanli activated his third spirit ring, releasing a domain of light that spread out, slowing Ye Feng's movement.
"Hmph."
Ye Feng sneered.
Instead of slowing down, he got even faster. It was clear—he hadn't been using his full speed from the start.
Hu Yanli could only watch helplessly as Ye Feng closed the distance.
"Get the fuck down!"
Ye Feng's fist crashed into Hu Yanli's chest.
Puff!
Hu Yanli was blasted backward, spewing blood. He flew out of the ring and hit the ground with a heavy thud.
"Murder!"
Huyan Zhen shot up from his seat, roaring furiously, "This is murder! I'll report this to the organizing committee! Shrek Academy is committing murder!"
Ning Fengzhi smiled calmly. "If this were truly murder, Ye Feng would've needed to use his spirit."
"Huh?"
Huyan Zhen glared at Ning Fengzhi. But when he processed the meaning behind his words, his face darkened. He could only groan in frustration, venting his anger.
Nothing was more infuriating than being insulted without a single curse word.
Ning Fengzhi maintained his warm smile. "Fortunately, Hu Yanli only suffered a few broken ribs and isn't in life-threatening condition. He just passed out from the pain."
"Fortunate, indeed."
Emperor Xue Ye took the cue to speak. He nodded calmly. "In that case, Sect Master Huyan doesn't need to worry. Just let your grandson rest for a few days."
"Yes, Your Majesty..."
With the Emperor's word, Huyan Zhen had no choice but to drop the matter.
"Now, I announce the results! In the second round of the preliminaries, Shrek Academy vs. Elephant Armor Academy—Shrek Academy wins!"
"YEAH!!!"
"SHREK! SHREK! SHREK!"
The arena exploded with cheers.
In the VIP seats, Platinum Bishop Salas watched Ye Feng closely, his eyes cold and calculating.
