Chapter 94 – Zhao Wuji Can’t Escape a Beating

Li Yusong's sudden move didn't catch Ye Yu off guard.

With his powerful spiritual awareness, Ye Yu immediately sensed the attack.

As Li Yusong reached out to grab him, Ye Yu twisted his body and unleashed a lightning-fast whip kick that turned into a blur—

Crack!

Li Yusong had no time to react. He was sent flying through the air and slammed hard into the ground, skidding over ten meters before finally stopping.

Pfft!

He coughed up a mouthful of blood, staggering to his feet, his face pale and grim.

"So fast…" he muttered, stunned.

Although Ye Yu held back considerably—after all, Li Yusong was just a Spirit Emperor, and Ye Yu wasn't here to kill anyone—

his strike still left the man badly injured but technically capable of fighting.

"Dragon Patterned Staff!"

Shamed and furious after being knocked down right in front of the academy gates during admissions no less, Li Yusong roared in anger.

He summoned his Martial Soul—a staff wrapped in coiling dragon patterns.

Under his feet, one white, one yellow, three purple, and one black Spirit Ring lit up in succession.

A powerful surge of Spirit Power erupted around him.

"You brat—prepare to die!"

With a furious shout, Li Yusong leapt into the air, gripping his Dragon Patterned Staff, and swung it down toward Ye Yu.

"Yes! That's it! Teach him a lesson, Teacher!"

Ning Rongrong, who hadn't yet left, cheered gleefully from the side. Her refined and delicate face lit up with excitement as she waved her little fists, practically bouncing with joy at the prospect of chaos.

In the crowd, Zhu Zhuqing's expression shifted as she watched Ye Yu's earlier kick send a Spirit Emperor flying.

Even if Li Yusong had let his guard down, he was still a Spirit Emperor.

To not only perceive the attack in time but also counter it and send him flying—

This Ye Yu… was far stronger than she expected.

Now, as Li Yusong came crashing down with the Dragon Patterned Staff,

Ye Yu didn't even bother to summon his Martial Soul, the Blue Silver Spiritjade Tree.

Instead, he activated his self-created Spirit Ability: Thunder Magnet Armor.

Electric arcs danced across his body as it lit up with radiant lightning, magnetic force crackling around him.

With a calm expression, he reached out—

And caught the descending staff barehanded.

Protected by a powerful Titled Douluo–level magnetic repulsion field,

Ye Yu took the hit without flinching.

Li Yusong's expression twisted in disbelief. He tried to pull the staff back—

But it didn't budge.

What kind of monster is this kid?!

Ye Yu gave the staff a powerful tug and yanked Li Yusong off his feet.

Then, without hesitation, he launched another kick—

Boom!

Li Yusong's eyes nearly popped out of his skull as his body bent like a shrimp from the impact.

Blood sprayed from his mouth as he flew backward in an arc, tumbling head over heels before slamming into the ground.

The shockwave of his released Spirit Power had already drawn attention.

Dai Mubai, who had just escorted Tang San and Xiao Wu into the second round of assessments, came rushing back.

Meanwhile, Zhao Wuji, who had been lounging in a chair on the training grounds, stood up in surprise.

"What the hell happened?"

"That wasn't just a warning shot. Old Li really let loose just now."

Scratching his head, Zhao Wuji frowned. Sensing something was off, he leapt into the air and rushed toward the academy gates.

Since Dai Mubai was closer, he arrived first.

What he saw shocked him:

Li Yusong lay sprawled on the ground, coughing blood, his face twisted in pain—

While Ye Yu casually tossed the Dragon Patterned Staff aside.

"What's going on?!"

Dai Mubai demanded.

"He tried to follow me in, but the teacher didn't let him."

"The teacher tried to kick him out but couldn't… well, manage it," Ning Rongrong said helplessly, gesturing toward Ye Yu and Li Yusong.

She was annoyed—

This so-called Spirit Emperor was embarrassingly weak.

How could someone that old lose to Ye Yu of all people?!

Suddenly, a booming voice shouted from behind:

"What's going on here?!"

A burly man came barreling forward. He wasn't tall, but his limbs were thick and powerful. Wearing a grey-brown leather vest, he looked like a boulder in motion—

Zhao Wuji had arrived.

Ye Yu's lips curled into a playful smile as he turned to face him.

"You're another Shrek Academy teacher?" he asked.

"I'm the elder brother of that girl, Ning Rongrong. I'm here to protect her."

"Since she's enrolled here, shouldn't I be allowed to accompany her?"

"But your teacher refused—and even tried to attack me."

"I had no choice but to defend myself."

"You liar!"

Ning Rongrong snapped, hands on her hips.

"You're not my brother! I don't need your protection!"

Ye Yu simply smiled faintly, choosing not to reply.

He just needed a reason—whether it held up or not didn't matter.

Zhao Wuji frowned, not sure who to believe.

But seeing Li Yusong bleeding on the ground, clearly beaten—

That was something Zhao Wuji couldn't let slide.

"Kid, I don't care who you are."

"If you dare hurt someone from Shrek Academy, I'll make you pay!"

With a roar, Zhao Wuji clenched his fists—

"Vigorous Vajra Bear, Possession!"

A radiant golden light exploded behind him as his Martial Soul manifested—

A massive bear covered in golden fur!

The moment it attached to him, Zhao Wuji's frame expanded. Muscles bulged, golden hair sprouted from his arms and exposed skin, and his hands morphed into giant bear paws.

Beneath him, two yellow, two purple, and three black Spirit Rings rose in a brilliant display—

Spirit Sage, seven rings!

Roaring, Zhao Wuji slammed a foot into the ground and lunged forward, his bear paw whipping through the air with explosive force.

Ye Yu simply smiled—then raised his own fist.

With a blur, his right hand shot forward.

Boom!

A thunderous impact rang out as their blows collided.

A shockwave exploded outward—

And Zhao Wuji was sent flying!

What?!

Li Yusong, who had just been helped to his feet by Dai Mubai, paled in disbelief.

Even Dai Mubai was stunned.

Zhu Zhuqing's expression turned to shock as her beautiful eyes widened.

This boy…

He didn't look much older than them.

But his strength was terrifying.

Even a Spirit Sage couldn't stand up to him?!

"You—what the hell are you?!"

Zhao Wuji roared in anger and disbelief.

He couldn't accept it. Even after Martial Soul Possession, his strength had been completely overpowered.

Ye Yu gave a sly smile.

"Take a guess."

Then he vanished—reappearing in front of Zhao Wuji and unleashing another punch.

"First Spirit Ability: Immovable Vajra Body!"

"Second Spirit Ability: Vigorous Vajra Palm!"

"Third Spirit Ability: Gravity Increase!"

Zhao Wuji activated all three Spirit Abilities in rapid succession. Golden light erupted from his body, his bear paws grew even larger, and an overwhelming force of gravity descended from above.

At the same time, as Ye Yu's punch came in—

Zhao Wuji's Immovable Vajra Body radiated a defensive golden aura, while Gravity Enhancement added massive pressure to the area.

But Ye Yu didn't care.

He simply increased his force.

His punch shattered the golden barrier of the Immovable Vajra Body—

And smashed Zhao Wuji square in the eye.

As for the gravity? It was weaker than the weights Ye Yu trained with daily.

He canceled it effortlessly using Electromagnetic Suspension.

Crack!

Zhao Wuji let out a miserable cry. His mind rang like a gong as he flew backward again,

spinning through the air.
