So Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian decided to take it slow, today he would let him know the power of Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian. 0
 
Sima Xiaosa kept a close watch on Guan Yue's expression; he could roughly gauge Guan Yue's emotions through his face, which was his strong suit. Now he realized that Guan Yue was plotting to make Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian look bad! 0
 
Indeed, Guan Yue was calculating how to embarrass Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian and make him feel ashamed. 0
 
Guan Yue first provoked, "Haha, it seems Brother Xuanyuan is nothing special. To think you are on par with a nine-year-old disciple of mine, it looks like Brother Xuanyuan is trying to create a miracle, growing younger and younger, and if this continues, you might end up as a baby begging me to hold you." At the same time, he forcefully resisted the attack from the Transforming Mountains and Rivers formation. 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian coldly replied, "Don't think you're so impressive; I am your ender! Watch the blade." 0
 
Saying this, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian lunged at Guan Yue again. 0
 
This time, Guan Yue used two types of Willpower: gold and wood. With a loud clash, after their strike, Guan Yue stepped back one step while Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian retreated two steps. 0
 
Guan Yue laughed, "How about that? I told you, you're just going backward." 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian did not respond this time but charged directly at Guan Yue again, determined that his Origin Energy could not be weaker than Guan Yue's. 0
 
Who would have thought that this time Guan Yue used three types of Willpower in his sword technique, causing Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian to retreat four steps in succession while Guan Yue did not move back at all. 0
 
Guan Yue was actually getting stronger with each battle?! And his power was increasing? What was going on? 0
 
Even Xiahou Xiong, a disciple from the Inner Courtyard watching from below, was stunned. There must be something strange here; Guan Yue clearly wasn't at the Attainment Realm. What could be making him grow stronger and stronger? Moreover, he was evidently much more powerful than Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian of the Superior Realm. But he knew that Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was far from admitting defeat. He still had tricks up his sleeve! 0
 
Guan Yue felt very pleased with himself; the Nine Pulse Will could indeed be divided and used so easily—it was truly a surprise. The effect was so evident that it left Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian momentarily stunned! 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian attacked again; this time he unleashed Blade Qi. The Blade Qi stretched over three feet long like an extended blade; his Blade Qi was yellow. 0
 
 
While Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was attacking Guan Yue, Guan Yue dodged and began to counterattack with Mental Strength. Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian's expression changed, and he quickly pulled out a headpiece and put it on. It seemed to be a Treasure designed to prevent Mental Attacks. Once he donned the headpiece, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian's complexion returned to normal. 0
 
Guan Yue smiled and continued his Mental Attack on Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian. He wanted to see how much of his Mental Strength the headpiece could negate. Sure enough, under Guan Yue's relentless assault, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian couldn't hold out for long; he began to show signs of pain. He lunged at Guan Yue again, hoping to stop the Mental Strength attack through close combat, just as Guan Yue had done to prevent him from using his magical artifacts. 0
 
Guan Yue displayed agile movements, making it impossible for Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian to get close while he continued to attack with Mental Strength. Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian was taken aback by the power of Guan Yue's Mental Strength, which managed to penetrate his mental shield. He felt a splitting headache and could no longer organize a counterattack, forcing him to retract his artifact, Transforming Mountains and Rivers. His face looked grim. 0
 
At that moment, a flash of light suddenly shot out from the onlookers, attacking Guan Yue. The beam was powerful, and Guan Yue had no choice but to cease his Mental Attack on Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian and focus entirely on defending himself. 0
 
Guan Yue glanced around and realized the attack came from Xiahou Xiong, someone he had spoken with once before. Xiahou Xiong appeared calm, looking provocatively at Guan Yue without any sign of fear. Guan Yue silently noted this down. A sneak attack? I will repay this grudge! 0
 
However, in the Arena, he had no evidence to accuse Xiahou Xiong, and the Host Teacher was acting oblivious. It seemed they all did not wish for him to defeat Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian. 0
 
At this moment, Guan Yue felt a tangible force against him since the dean no longer allowed him into the Inner Courtyard. This force was composed of multiple factions, their strength overwhelming for him at present, so he could only endure. 0
 
He decided to defeat Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian immediately to prevent others from intervening. With his mind made up, Guan Yue raised his treasured sword and infused it with all his Nine Pulse Will. The sword shimmered with ghostly light and emitted nine different colors, dazzling everyone watching. 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian noticed that Xiahou Xiong had saved him. He also realized that Guan Yue had fallen out of favor with Dean Jin, so the Inner Courtyard disciples were eager to confront him. Without the dean's backing, Guan Yue would surely face difficulties ahead! 0
 
With Guan Yue's Mental Attack gone, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian felt confident again. He finally took out the magical artifact he had purchased at great expense specifically for dealing with Guan Yue: Thunder Tower. Thunder Tower was originally an Imperial-Grade Weapon that required five hundred drops of Essence from the Attainment Realm to operate. However, due to a spell cast by Great Power on Pinnacle Tower, it now only required one hundred drops of Essence for Disciples at Achieving Realm to use. 0
 
As soon as Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian brandished Thunder Tower, he smugly said to Guan Yue: "Kid, now you will see my true power. Losing under this Treasure won't be a loss." With that, he began chanting incantations to activate Thunder Tower. 0
 
Seeing this was not good, Guan Yue quickly flew forward and finally used his signature move: Cloud-Drifting Flowers. This technique was far superior to Ethereal Movement Technique; hence when Ouyang Shaohua recommended Ethereal Movement Technique to him previously, he did not pursue it further. In a flash of light, Guan Yue reached Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian's side and thrust his sword towards him just as the Host Teacher and Xiahou Xiong realized something was wrong—it was already too late. 0
 
At that moment, Guan Yue's sword suddenly let out a long dragon roar that resonated throughout the Arena, causing all spectators below to feel their hearts tremble in fear. Meanwhile, the sword aimed at Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian struck like a bolt from the blue; his body went numb instantly. As Guan Yue's sword light surged forth with the sound of the roar, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian could only lift his Greatsword slightly in defense as their attacks collided. 0
 
With a loud clang echoing through the air, while Guan Yue remained standing in the Arena, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian vanished without a trace. 0
 
 
The audience on stage was filled with terror; how could this be possible? How could Guan Yue possess such terrifying Combat Power? 0
 
A scream echoed, and everyone realized that Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had been thrown over thirty meters away from the Arena, lying on his back with blood oozing from his seven orifices, looking utterly miserable and clearly injured. 0
 
The Host Teacher looked at Guan Yue and coldly said, "Guan Yue, this shouldn't be happening." 0
 
Guan Yue coldly retorted, "Should I wait for the Dark Sword to kill me before it’s considered right?" 0
 
The Host Teacher became furious: "What do you mean? Clarify yourself; who harmed you with the Dark Sword?" 0
 
Guan Yue raised his arm and pointed at the wounds on his body, saying, "I really can't believe you were careless. Perhaps you wanted me dead too." 0
 
The Host Teacher inadvertently shot a fierce glare at Xiahou Xiong and then softly said, "As long as you find out who harmed you, I will definitely avenge you. This is also a challenge to me." 0
 
Without waiting for the Host Teacher to announce the results, Guan Yue walked off the Arena by himself. He paid no attention to the cheering crowd; he didn't want to endanger them by getting too close. The Huangfu Sisters were a prime example. 0
 
At this moment, only Ouyang Shaohua understood Guan Yue's feelings. Her heart grew cold as well. She had sensed Xiahou Xiong's sneak attack; this world was truly too realistic, leaving no warmth to feel. She silently watched Guan Yue walk away without chasing after him. 0
 
Meanwhile, Xiahou Xiong's eyes were filled with malice as he stared at Guan Yue's departing figure. 0
 
Guan Yue had become the first in the Tiger Lion Ranking! 0
 
Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had been completely defeated in just a few moves and was knocked off the Arena by Guan Yue without any chance to fight back! 0
 
Like a whirlwind, this news spread to every corner of Qilin Academy. 0
 
Now, the mid-semester assessment was completely unnecessary for Guan Yue, and figures like Wang Renwei and Ruo Yi were no longer on his radar; they were merely insignificant pests not worth mentioning. 0
 
 
Guan Yue found Tai Shi Xiao Xiao and said goodbye to her. He mentioned that he planned to go out for a year to gain experience and then return to leave the academy with the Grand Historian Vice Dean. 0
 
Tai Shi Xiao Xiao looked at the young man who was gradually growing up before her, filled with pride. This was a child she had taken a liking to, and he had not disappointed her. From him, Tai Shi Xiao Xiao thought of Futian, that old ghost. She wondered how he was handling his personal grudges. 0
 
Tai Shi Xiao Xiao knew that Guan Yue's situation in the academy was very difficult, especially since the disciples from the Inner Courtyard wanted to use him as a stepping stone. He would face severe challenges. However, going out for experience also posed many risks; if anything were to happen to him, how would she explain it to Futian? 0
 
"Guan Yue, I really can't rest easy with you going out alone," Tai Shi Xiao Xiao said frankly. 0
 
To her surprise, Guan Yue smiled and mysteriously replied, "Don't worry, I can already fly with my sword now. It's hard for others to hurt me." 0
 
"What? You can fly now?" Tai Shi Xiao Xiao couldn't believe it. 0
 
Guan Yue then took out his sword and began chanting. Before long, he actually rose into the air inside the room and flew around a few times. 0
 
Tai Shi Xiao Xiao couldn't help but shake her head secretly, thinking, "Nantian is really foolish. Such a prodigy is being pushed out like this; Qilin Academy won't make much progress in the future." She couldn't understand how Guan Yue, a disciple at the Achieving Realm, could fly. 0
 
Guan Yue landed, put away his sword, and bid farewell to Tai Shi Xiao Xiao once more. 0
 
The Grand Historian Vice Dean could only repeatedly remind Guan Yue to pay attention to safety and not take risks. At the same time, she gave him one of her Imperial-Grade Weapons. After Guan Yue accepted it, he reluctantly said goodbye to Tai Shi Xiao Xiao. 0
 
Afterward, Guan Yue went to the Noble Girls' Dormitory to bid farewell to Ouyang Shaohua. 0
 
The two walked quietly through the night at Qilin Academy. Although it was dark, they understood each other well. Guan Yue told Ouyang Shaohua about his plan to go out for a year of experience before returning to leave the academy with Tai Shi Xiao Xiao. 0
