Chapter 65: "Those Defeated by Me Are Never Worthy Opponents"

"Cough… How is his strength so much greater than mine?!"

Yu Tianheng looked at Dai Mubai's figure in disbelief, his voice trembling slightly.

His Martial Soul was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, hailed as the number one Beast Martial Soul in the world.

Even though Dai Mubai was at Rank 43, Yu Tianheng hadn't taken that difference in soul power seriously.

A mere Soul Ancestor? That shouldn't be unbeatable.

But facing Dai Mubai felt completely different. This man didn't feel like a Soul Ancestor at all—he felt more like his father, Yu Dagan.

Yu Tianheng's father, Yu Dagan, was a Rank 70+ Soul Sage.

"It must be an illusion! It has to be!"

How could Dai Mubai possibly compare to his father…

The Emperor Battle Team wasn't the only group stunned; even Tang San and the others were frozen in place.

Was he really this strong? They hadn't even started, and already two opponents were down!

"How can the gap between us be so huge…"

Tang San clenched his Blue Silver Grass tightly, unwilling to accept this reality.

No, Dai Mubai is three years older than me. If we were the same age, he wouldn't be my match.

Tang San wrestled with this thought, unaware that Dai Mubai didn't care what he thought.

At that moment, Yu Feng staggered to his feet again, only for Dai Mubai to frown. In an instant—whoosh!—Dai Mubai appeared right in front of him.

"Yu Feng, don't—"

Before Yu Tianheng could finish his sentence, Dai Mubai grabbed Yu Feng by the collar and hurled him back toward Yu Tianheng.

"Ahhhh—"

Yu Feng's mind went blank. How could someone this fast claim to be a Power Attack-type Soul Master?!

What nonsense!

"Boss, what do we do? We're completely outmatched!"

Yu Feng crawled to his feet, his face filled with bitterness as he asked Yu Tianheng.

He had thought he could at least stall Dai Mubai for a couple of minutes.

But he hadn't expected this—he hadn't even lasted a single second. If Dai Mubai had wanted to kill him, he would've been dead already.

His speed, his power… Yu Feng hadn't been able to resist at all.

At the same time, Ao Si Luo was also on the verge of losing. He already couldn't beat Zhu Zhuqing, but with Ma Hongjun and Xiao Wu assisting, plus Ning Rongrong's buffs, how could he possibly stand a chance?

He was just a Rank 36 Agility-type Soul Elder, after all!

"Ao Si Luo eliminated!"

With Flender's announcement, Ao Si Luo got up, visibly defeated, and walked to the sidelines. The remainder of the battle was no longer his concern.

Hearing this, the Emperor Battle Team felt even more pressure.

"Let us try. We might not be able to beat him, but… we can take a beating!"

The Black Tortoise brothers, Shi Mo and Shi Mó, spoke up, their voices resolute. With their Black Tortoise Martial Souls, their defense was among the best.

"But… your speed…"

Yu Tianheng wanted to point out that the brothers wouldn't be able to keep up with Dai Mubai's speed.

Before he could finish, Shi Mo waved him off.

"Who can keep up with his speed anyway?"

Hearing this, Yu Tianheng instinctively nodded, murmuring:

"…That's true."

How could someone be this strong? It was incomprehensible.

"Let's give it a shot."

Yu Tianheng, Shi Mo, and Shi Mó stepped to the front lines once more, ready to launch another attack.

They couldn't just give up. At the very least, they had to eliminate a few of Shrek's members.

After all, their average soul power was higher than their opponents'. If they were completely defeated, it would be far too humiliating.

Even if they couldn't beat Dai Mubai, surely they could handle the others!

Dai Mubai, however, seemed to see through their intentions. He didn't care.

If this were a real fight, I could eliminate the entire Emperor Battle Team in ten seconds.

"It's time to end this battle. Pointless fights like these are a waste of time. I'd rather be chatting with Zhuqing about life… or what to name our future children."

With that thought, Dai Mubai stopped hesitating. He raised his right foot and sent a few kicks toward Yu Tianheng and the others.

Golden crescent-shaped energy waves shot out, slicing through the air toward the Emperor Battle Team.

"???"

How was this possible?! His soul rings hadn't fluctuated at all, yet he had launched such an attack!

For a moment, Yu Tianheng and the others felt as if they were facing a mortal threat.

Shi Mo and Shi Mó immediately moved to block in front of their team, their soul rings flashing as they prepared to defend. But before they could release their soul power, the attack was already upon them.

"Ahhh!"

The two brothers, still in Martial Soul Possession, couldn't withstand the attack. They were sent flying backward instantly.

"Shi—"

Yu Tianheng started to shout, but before he could finish, he was blown back as well, landing hard near Dugu Yan and the others.

Pain radiated across his face, leaving him stunned.

How is he this fast?!

"We surrender! The Emperor Battle Team surrenders!"

At this moment, Qin Ming hurriedly shouted, stepping in to stop the fight. He hadn't expected his junior to be this terrifyingly strong!

A single person—Dai Mubai—had completely overwhelmed the entire Emperor Battle Team. There was no point in continuing.

With Qin Ming's announcement, everyone withdrew their Martial Souls. After all, this was just a sparring match; there was no need for serious injuries.

Even the Emperor Battle Team could see that Dai Mubai had held back. Otherwise, the first person eliminated would have been their support, Ye Lingling.

Yu Tianheng and the others also would've been far worse off.

After a short while, Yu Tianheng and the others were fully healed by Ye Lingling's abilities.

Yu Tianheng walked up to Dai Mubai with a serious expression and said,

"Next time, we won't lose again!"

Dai Mubai waved him off dismissively.

Next time? The gap between us will only grow larger. You'll still lose.

"Those defeated by me are never worth my consideration as opponents. I'll give you time to catch up… until you can no longer even see my shadow."

With his hands behind his back, Dai Mubai turned and walked away after saying this.

"You—!"

Yu Tianheng was at a loss for words. Everyone present, being Soul Masters, heard Dai Mubai's words crystal clear.

What kind of arrogance was this?!

The Emperor Battle Team had only lost once, yet Dai Mubai completely dismissed them.

How could they not be furious?

But anger aside, Dai Mubai's words held weight. He had single-handedly defeated their entire team.

At 15 years old, Dai Mubai was already Rank 43. Meanwhile, Yu Tianheng, at 19, was only Rank 39.

This was the reason for Dai Mubai's confidence—his unshakable dominance.

Pointing at Dai Mubai's retreating figure, Yu Tianheng could only choke out a single "you" before falling silent.

His fists clenched tightly as his entire body trembled, but there was no way to refute Dai Mubai's words.

"To come in second is still to lose—there's no excuse for failure."

Ye Lingling stared at Dai Mubai's back, a strange glint flashing in her eyes…
