“Her strength seems different!”
“She’s already reached the Qi and Blood realm!?”
“How is that possible? Last week she hadn’t even reached the threshold of the Martial Artist realm, and now she’s broken through to the Qi and Blood realm in such a short time?!”
Several male students with armbands were stunned.
“Don’t panic, even if she’s in the Qi and Blood realm, it’s nothing. We’re all at the tenth level of the Martial Artist realm, just a step away from the Qi and Blood realm.”
“Besides, there are more of us, so we might not lose!”
“What’s more… I’ve never heard of anyone improving their strength so quickly in such a short period. It’s likely this girl is bluffing!”
The leading male student calmly analyzed.
“That makes sense. Even consuming beast cores wouldn’t increase strength this fast, unless you eat them like meals!”
“But that kind of consumption is extremely expensive. Even children from school board families can’t afford it, haha!”
A follower next to him chimed in with mockery.
However, before his words finished, he felt a gust of wind blow past him.
Bang!
The leading male student was sent flying five or six meters away by a single punch.
Tang Xueyao, who was in front of them moments ago, suddenly appeared among the group of male students.
“This…”
Bang!
Before the follower could react, there was another muffled sound.
His world spun, he was sent flying, and then landed heavily on the ground.
He lay there for a while before slowly standing up. At this moment, only Tang Xueyao stood alone in the center of the field. The male students with armbands around them had all fallen.
“How is this possible? How did Tang Xueyao’s strength improve so quickly?!”
“Could it be… she obtained some fortuitous encounter? Perhaps she truly has divine protection?!”
“Don’t joke. If there were really gods in the world, the True God Cult wouldn’t be listed as a cult and be reduced to just one person?”
“True, but how did she get so strong?!”
The surrounding students were in an uproar. Unlike the ones with armbands, they were just ordinary students.
They had no interest in any religious disputes and just wanted to attend school peacefully.
“Audacious! This is a martial arts school, and we will not tolerate cults causing trouble here!”
Suddenly, a deafening voice boomed from the sky.
Then, the director of the Disciplinary Department descended from the sky, landing heavily in front of Tang Xueyao.
“I’m not here to cause trouble, they provoked me first!”
Tang Xueyao said neither subserviently nor arrogantly.
“This is a martial arts school, and it has its rules. They are maintaining the order of the school, so whatever they do is right.”
“Your attacking them is a direct challenge to the school’s rules!”
“You were on leave at home. Even if you came to the martial arts school, it would be considered a scuffle between classmates, and I could overlook it.”
“But you have crossed the bottom line of the martial arts school, so I can’t let this go!”
The director of the Disciplinary Department reprimanded sternly, and at the same time, a thorny short staff appeared in his hand.
Seeing this short staff, the students shivered.
Especially those who didn’t study well had all suffered from this short staff. It was extremely painful when it hit, and it also had the effect of absorbing energy, making even ordinary defensive skills ineffective.
Most terrifyingly, as the strongest person in the martial arts school, the director of the Disciplinary Department was at the first level of the Guardian realm, a force not to be underestimated.
The strongest among the martial arts school students were around the fifth level of the Qi and Blood realm. The Heavenly Gang realm was considered a genius rarely seen in a hundred years.
Therefore, the director of the Disciplinary Department was an unshakable existence within the martial arts school.
The nemesis of the students!
“Tsk, using a weapon? An adult fighting a child and using a weapon, and at an advantage in strength too? Shameless!”
Zhang Chen frowned.
If this were the apocalypse, it wouldn’t matter. It would be the survival of the fittest, natural law.
But this was an ordered world. Although he didn’t know the specifics of the order, people should still have some sense of shame.
“As the 67th leader of the True God Cult, the most devout follower of the True God, no matter how strong you are, I will never take half a step back!”
Tang Xueyao said, reaching for the dagger at her waist.
That dagger, if used against ordinary people or martial artists of that level, would indeed be lethal.
But against a powerful expert in the Guardian realm… even if they stood still and let you stab them, you wouldn’t be able to break their defense.
“Good spirit. The leader of the True God Cult should have this kind of spirit!”
Zhang Chen praised.
Swish!
Tang Xueyao drew her weapon.
However, the weapon in front of her wasn’t a dagger, but a long saber full of serrations.
Upon closer inspection, the long saber had dense claw-like protrusions, the entire blade flowed with energy, and the hilt was inlaid with a gemstone.
“This is…”
As this saber was drawn, not only the students present but even Tang Xueyao herself was stunned.
“Thousand Bone Saber, enhanced version. I used it often a long time ago, but then I didn’t need it anymore. I’ll give it to you as a gift!”
Seeing that the space in his ring had increased a bit, Zhang Chen was in a good mood.
Although he had the ability to create infinite space, he still preferred the feeling of using a ring.
Order, not chaos.
“This… this is a weapon once used by the True God?!”
“I will definitely not disappoint you!”
Tang Xueyao’s face was filled with emotion, and she tightly gripped the Thousand Bone Saber with both hands.
In an instant, the energy from the Thousand Bone Saber merged with Tang Xueyao’s body energy.
“What an ugly weapon! As expected, only cults use such things!”
“However, in the face of my absolute strength, all weapons are insignificant!”
The director of the Disciplinary Department saw more and more students gathering around and felt this was a good opportunity to establish his authority, a chance to let the newly enrolled freshmen understand his strength.
So they wouldn’t think they were exceptionally talented and forget that there’s always someone stronger when they have a little bit of capital.
Whoosh!
[Attribute Boost]!
A faint green energy instantly erupted from the director of the Disciplinary Department.
“Soul Burn? But Soul Burn usually starts with blue and then turns golden. What’s with the green?”
Zhang Chen found the skills of the world five hundred years later a bit hard to understand.
It was indeed evolved from old skills, but its effects still needed further observation.
“Heretic, accept your punishment!”
The director of the Disciplinary Department suddenly charged forward.
Clang!
The thorny short staff collided with the Thousand Bone Saber.
“Damn it, it’s absorbing my energy!”
Tang Xueyao felt a powerful suction force emanating from the thorny short staff, and her internal energy began to stir.
However, after just a few seconds, this powerful suction force disappeared.
Then, a look of horror appeared on the director of the Disciplinary Department’s face!
Because he felt the energy-absorbing effect of the thorny short staff being instantly backfired by the Thousand Bone Saber, and his own energy was pouring into the Thousand Bone Saber ceaselessly.
The green energy buff on his body flickered like a candle in the wind, trembled a few times, and then extinguished with unwillingness.
