Chapter 8, Liuyang

Hehe, you truly are someone who has participated in the Spirit Path before. However, your actions seem to show a lack of regard for us in the West Courtyard, don't you think

Bang

As the fists of the two individuals rushed towards him, Mu Chen's palm suddenly brushed against the surface of their fists, then swiftly descended, landing firmly on their wrists, exerting force and pulling down heavily.

Both Xue Dong and the other person were taken aback by Mu Chen's move, but at such a moment, they similarly had no time to evade. Gritting their teeth, they immediately channeled all their strength and launched a punch.

The surrounding students exclaimed in surprise, is this the strength of the second-ranked in the Western Courtyard?

Xue Dong and Xiao Kun, standing nearby, quickly realized this as well. A glint of ferocity flashed in their eyes, and the fear in their hearts diminished significantly.

Mu Chen seemed to have anticipated his response, and the smile on his face became even more radiant. He then nodded and strode towards Mu Yuan, with dark spiritual energy slowly rising from his palms once again

"Today is merely a small lesson for them. In this Northern Spirit Academy, when we in the Western Courtyard speak, it is not your Eastern Courtyard's place to interrupt." Mu Yuan clapped his hands and sneered at Mu Chen, saying, "As for you, I believe after tomorrow, you should have no face to say such things again."

It was merely a single encounter, yet Xue Dong and his companion suffered a complete and undeniable defeat.

Su Ling and the others were also stunned, and then their faces were filled with ecstasy. They did not expect that Mu Chen, in a one against three situation, could still gain such an absolute advantage over *Tu* *Shu*.

A sound came from behind, causing the footsteps of Mu Yuan and the others to pause. They turned their heads to look at the young man standing in front of Su Ling, whose face was now adorned with a radiant smile.

A deep voice resounded, and the bodies of Xue Dong and the other person were suddenly sent flying out amidst the astonished gazes, crashing heavily to the ground, followed by cries of agony, their clothing torn apart at the chest.

Xue Dong and the other person thrust forward with their fists, but were easily swept aside, causing their entire bodies to lurch forward uncontrollably. In the midst of their unsteady forms, Mu Chen's palm wind swept past their arms, akin to a spirit snake emerging from its den, unceremoniously striking against their chests.

I said ... ...

Mu Yuan and the other two looked gloomily at Mu Chen, who was approaching step by step. Their eyes met briefly, and a glint of cold light flashed in each of their gazes.

Mu Chen maintained a calm expression as he gazed at the disheveled Mu Yuan, smiled, and said, "Can I apologize now?"

Su Ling and the others were also filled with anger, their fists clenched tightly. However, at this moment, the opposing side exuded a formidable aura, and even with Mu Chen's arrival, they did not dare to confront them head-on.

Su Ling and the others were momentarily taken aback, their faces flushing slightly, clearly not expecting that even in such a situation, Mu Chen would still stand up for them

Hmph, what a bold statement

However, just as the fierce palm wind was about to strike Mu Chen, the latter lightly sidestepped half a step. Mu Chen's figure brushed past Mu Yuan, and on that delicate face, the brows gently furrowed, resembling a drawn sword. The originally gentle countenance instantly transformed into one of coldness, exuding a strong sense of aggression

Brother Mu is so impressive

Surrounding them were sounds of astonishment, clearly indicating that no one had expected Mu Yuan and his companions to act so decisively, launching a joint attack without hesitation. These three are indeed among the top ten fierce individuals in the Western Courtyard.

He did not directly attack Mu Yuan, but in the fleeting moment of missing, he charged straight towards Xue Dong, who was one step behind Mu Yuan, and Xiao Kun. The dark spiritual energy coiled around his fingertips, his five fingers spread wide, and he struck directly at the two of them. As the spiritual energy surged, a faint sharp sound of wind could be heard.

The fists collided heavily, sending a shockwave that spread outwards, intertwining fiery red and deep black. At that moment, Mu Yuan's face instantly turned blood red, his body shuddered violently, and with a splatter, a mouthful of fresh blood was spat out. He staggered backward for several steps before finally collapsing awkwardly onto the ground.

However, Mu Yuan was the first to regain his composure. He looked at Mu Chen and let out a cold snort. Seven days ago, he had also advanced to the initial stage of the Spirit Movement Realm, and behind him, Xue Dong and Xiao Kun were also on the verge of advancing. With such a lineup present, did Mu Chen really dare to do anything?

Although both individuals are at the initial stage of the Spirit Movement Realm, it is evident that Mu Chen's spiritual power refinement and intensity far exceed that of Mu Yuan

When Mu Yuan and the other two looked at the smiling youth before them, their expressions inevitably changed slightly. The originally mocking gazes became a bit more serious, clearly indicating that they held some apprehension towards Mu Chen.

Mu Yuan's strength is the most formidable among the three, having already advanced to the initial stage of the Spirit Movement Realm. Therefore, his offensive is also the most fierce, with spiritual power enveloping his palms, and the wind from his strikes cutting like a blade, fiercely slashing towards Mu Chen.

He has been arrogant and spoiled at Beiling Academy; asking him to apologize, has this guy lost his mind

So ... ...

How is that possible! Namuyuan also sat on the ground in a disheveled state, with a look of disbelief on his face, even forgetting to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth

Mu Chen

Mu Yuan gazed at the approaching Mu Chen, who was smiling brightly. However, for some reason, as he looked at Mu Chen's smile, he felt a chilling sensation that seemed to emanate from his very bones

Mu Yuan's face darkened slightly, and he sneered, "Why should I?"

Mu Chen approached Mu Yuan, the dark spiritual energy in his palm growing increasingly intense. However, just as he stopped in front of Mu Yuan, a soft sound of clapping came from the side.

With just a single move, the outcome of victory and defeat was determined

A low growl emerged from Mu Yuan's mouth, and one could see the spiritual power surging fiercely from his arms. He stomped his foot heavily and charged directly towards Mu Chen. Behind him, Xue Dong and Xiao Kun swiftly followed on either side, their movements surprisingly synchronized.

Xue Dong and the other person were able to attain such a ranking in the Western Courtyard, which naturally indicates that they are not ordinary individuals. However, at this moment, they have slightly misjudged the strength of the young man before them, as well as the skill and decisiveness with which he strikes.

As long as they entangle Mu Chen for a moment, Mu Yuan will be able to turn back to provide assistance, at which point they will be able to completely drag Mu Chen into the siege.

Mu Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth, saying: "In your dreams!"

The first person of the Western Courtyard, Liu Yang

Aren't you planning to apologize before leaving

At this moment, Mu Chen also turned around, gazing at the fierce Mu Yuan approaching him. He clenched his five fingers into a fist, showing no intention of avoiding the oncoming threat. Dark spiritual power coiled around him, and then he unleashed a powerful punch.

Many of the surrounding students were rendered speechless, gazing at the arrogant Mu Yuan, too afraid to speak. Some students from the East Courtyard, however, felt a surge of anger in their hearts, daring to be indignant but not daring to voice it.

As his words fell, he waved his hand, intending to leave with Xue Dong and the others. Today, he had certainly displayed his authority, which should serve to effectively curb the arrogance of those in the East Courtyard.

It seems there is nothing to discuss

On Mu Yuan's palms, a sudden eruption of fiery red spiritual energy surged forth, rising like flames, causing the air around to become somewhat scorching.

Amidst the many fearful gazes, the young man stood before Mu Chen. He possessed a rather handsome appearance, yet the slight curl of his lips revealed a hint of arrogance and an undeniable pride. At this moment, with his arms crossed, he looked at Mu Chen with a gaze reminiscent of that directed at prey.

The angry roar came from behind, and Mu Yuan, witnessing this scene, was infuriated, his face turning red. He did not expect that Mu Chen would actually avoid him first and eliminate Xue Dong and the other two instead.

The two individuals, Xue Dong and his companion, who had previously been knocked to the ground, were also left dumbfounded. Mu Yuan possessed the strength of the initial stage of the Spirit Movement Realm; how could he possibly be unable to withstand even a single punch from Mu Chen

Flame Palm

Bang

Their confidence is given by me, do you have any questions

Take action

Apology

The surrounding sounds seemed to have quieted slightly, and many young boys and girls looked at the smiling youth with a hint of astonishment. At this moment, although the smile on the latter's face remained radiant, there was an underlying sharpness, as if it had taken on a cold edge.

Mu Chen nodded slightly, then said no more, and walked step by step towards the three Mu Yuan.

Within the North Spirit Academy, Mu Chen has consistently maintained a low profile. Aside from his previous feat of defeating Xue Dong, there have been no other notable accomplishments attributed to him. However, none of the students in the entire North Spirit Academy dare to underestimate him. Even the arrogant Mu Yuan holds a significant degree of caution towards him. After all, someone qualified to participate in the Spirit Path is certainly not an ordinary individual

Mu Chen tilted his head, gazing at the parted crowd. There, a figure approached slowly with a smile, causing the surrounding students to step back slightly, a hint of fear flashing in their eyes

After the screams of Xue Dong and the other person were heard, the surrounding students finally came to their senses and couldn't help but grin. Was that too quick?
