Everyone held their breath, waiting for the response of this top-tier freshman.
The tension had been built to its absolute peak.
Su Yu looked at Chu Kuang on the high platform, who clearly enjoyed watching the chaos unfold.
The corner of his eye twitched slightly.
This old man?
Which one of your eyes saw me wanting to fight to the bitter end?
Su Yu withdrew his gaze and looked back at Chen Feng.
He thought for a moment.
Then he let go of the hand that was resting on Lin Xiaoxiao's waist.
And then, under everyone's expectant gaze.
Su Yu simply shook his head.
"I'm not fighting."
His tone was flat, with not a hint of hesitation.
The entire crowd erupted in shock!
"He refused?"
"The top-tier freshman actually backed down?"
"Expected, I guess. With a two-thousand-point difference in vital energy, going up there would just mean getting beaten."
"But even Director Chu gave the order... retreating this fast is a bit much..."
Murmurs spread through the crowd.
The sneer on Chen Feng's face froze instantly.
The punch he had loaded up with all his strength felt like it had struck cotton.
He was so frustrated he could spit blood!
"You're scared?!"
Chen Feng glared at Su Yu, his teeth clenched in mockery.
"Is this the courage of a top-tier freshman?"
"If you won't even accept my duel, what right do you have to stand by Xiaoxiao's side!"
Faced with Chen Feng's provocation.
Su Yu slipped both hands back into his pockets.
His tone carried an air of unapologetic confidence.
"It's not fear."
"It's just not worth it."
Su Yu looked at Chen Feng like he was looking at an idiot.
"You win, and I have to stay away from Lin Xiaoxiao."
"But what do I get if I win?"
"If I beat you, I don't get a single cent of benefit, and I waste my time for nothing."
"I can't be bothered."
Silence.
On the training ground, an eerie silence fell once again.
Everyone stared at Su Yu.
Their minds buzzing.
How was this top-tier freshman's brain wired?
Others duel for dignity, for the girl, for fame.
He duels only after calculating whether there's a profit?!
On the high platform, Chu Kuang stumbled, nearly tumbling down the steps.
This kid!
He's completely obsessed with money!
Chen Feng was also stunned by Su Yu's shameless reasoning.
But at this point, he was blinded by jealousy.
As long as he could trample Su Yu into the dirt and humiliate him publicly.
He'd pay any price!
"Fine!"
Chen Feng gritted his teeth hard.
He flipped his wrist.
A flash of light.
A jade slip, smooth to the touch and glowing with a faint luminescence, appeared in his palm.
The moment the jade slip appeared.
The mental energy in the surrounding air began to resonate faintly.
As if an invisible ripple was spreading outward.
"You want a bet?!"
Chen Feng raised the jade slip high, his eyes bloodshot.
"This is my family's heirloom technique!"
"If you dare accept this duel and actually beat me."
"This technique is yours, free of charge!"
The moment these words left his mouth.
Lin Xiaoxiao beside him sucked in a sharp breath.
She stared at the jade slip in Chen Feng's hand, gasping.
"Chen Feng! Are you insane?!"
Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but exclaim.
"That's the very foundation of the Chen family!"
Turning around, Lin Xiaoxiao quickly lowered her voice and explained to Su Yu.
"Su Yu, this thing is extremely precious!"
"It's a Heaven-grade top-tier technique!"
"And it's an incredibly rare mental-energy-based martial art!"
For reference, the fist technique she practiced was also Heaven-grade top-tier, but it couldn't compare in value to a Heaven-grade top-tier mental-energy martial art!
Lin Xiaoxiao's tone carried an undeniable shock.
"Most martial arts in the Great Xia Kingdom focus on tempering the body and vital energy."
"Mental-energy martial arts are one in a hundred!"
"Once mastered, you can kill without a trace, even directly attack your opponent's soul!"
"In the top-tier martial arts vaults, this is absolutely priceless!"
"The Chen family relied on this very technique to establish their foothold in the capital."
"And he's using it as a bet!"
Mental-energy martial arts.
Heaven-grade top-tier.
These words struck Su Yu's heart like a hammer.
His deep, calm eyes finally ignited with a brilliant light!
What did he need most right now?
A mental-energy technique!
His ten-million-year condensed spear intent was pure brute force stacked by the system.
Its power was terrifying, but he himself didn't truly understand how to wield mental energy.
If he had a Heaven-grade top-tier mental-energy martial art.
And then poured a few million years of system time into refining it.
Combined with his condensed spear intent, his combat power would undergo a qualitative leap!
This was exactly what he needed, handed to him on a silver platter!
The Su Yu who had been utterly bored suddenly perked up.
His gaze locked onto the jade slip in Chen Feng's hand.
"You said it yourself."
Su Yu slowly pulled his hands out of his pockets.
His tone remained calm, but carried an unshakeable resolve.
"Heaven-grade top-tier, mental-energy martial art."
"If I win, it's mine."
Chen Feng saw Su Yu finally take the bait.
The vicious grin on his face could no longer be hidden.
"That's right!"
"I, Chen Feng, am a man of my word!"
"But if you lose!"
Chen Feng pointed at Su Yu's nose, snarling viciously.
"Then from now on, whenever you see me, you get out of my way!"
"And don't you dare come within a step of Xiaoxiao!"
Su Yu didn't pay his outburst any mind.
He turned and glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao beside him.
Then, he reached behind him and began untying the long, narrow object wrapped in layers of black cloth.
The layers slid off one by one.
A pitch-black spear, its shaft covered in dark golden dragon-scale patterns, was revealed under the sunlight.
Yuanlong Spear.
A Martial Emperor-grade weapon.
The moment the spear appeared.
A bone-chilling aura of slaughter dropped the temperature in the area by several degrees.
On the high platform, Chu Kuang's eyes bulged wide.
"Yuanlong?!"
"That old bastard Lin Zhengtian actually gave this spear to this kid?!"
Chu Kuang sucked in a cold breath.
Now this was going to be good.
Su Yu gripped the Yuanlong Spear.
The touch was ice-cold.
The one-thousand-point martial artist vital energy in his body began to circulate slowly.
He looked at Chen Feng.
A sharp gleam flashed through his deep eyes.
"Enough talk."
Su Yu pointed the spear tip toward the ground.
"Where do we fight?"
Chen Feng sneered at the sight.
"So you do have some spine after all!"
"Weiming Lake, the duel platform!"
"Let's go!"
Chen Feng turned and strode toward the Weiming Lake direction, his three-thousand-point vital energy radiating violently.
The crowd of freshmen and upperclassmen erupted!
A duel!
Top-tier freshman Su Yu versus sophomore martial artist Chen Feng!
One thousand vital energy versus three thousand!
And the stakes were a Heaven-grade top-tier mental-energy technique!
The news spread like wildfire, instantly flooding the entire Jingwu training ground.
A massive crowd followed behind the two, surging toward the lakeside.
Lin Xiaoxiao walked beside Su Yu.
Watching the cold Yuanlong Spear in his hand.
Though worry still lingered in her heart, afraid Su Yu might get hurt, there was also a strange sense of anticipation.
She knew how overpowered Su Yu could be.
"You..."
Lin Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment.
"Are you sure about this?"
Su Yu didn't turn back.
He watched the silhouette of Chen Feng ahead of him.
"Wouldn't we find out if we just tried?"

However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!
