The Ghost King's expression turned somewhat ugly as Wu Xian's departure forced the Ghost Realm Yin-Yang Formation to forcibly dissolve.

"Mantra of Esoteric Buddhism, Six Pearls Reincarnation!"

It seemed that this time Wu Xian's recovery was somewhat effective, runes appeared on both the Ghost King and the Ancient One, absorbing Chi.

"Damn it, another sinister trick!"

The Ghost King complained as he accelerated the circulation of the power of the stars in his body, trying to reject this terrifying spell.

"My Esoteric Buddhism Mantra consumes the power of the soul as its foundation. It's ridiculous for you to think you can dispel it."

The Ghost King belittled Wu Xian's spell, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.

"Despicable! I..."

"Stop it!"

At that moment, Yuanhui, who had been silently watching from the side, took off his mask.

"Do you believe now that I have no ill intent?"

Seeing the trembling Tong'er, Yuanhui gestured for Wu Xian to stop.

"Yuanhui, cousin?"

Even more worrying was Mengluo.

"Why are you here? Aren't you..."

"Haha, I came to save... uh, who was it again?"

As he fabricated in his mind, Tong'er's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yuanhui, is it really you?"

As Tong'er turned her head, she had already reached within half a meter of him, touching his cheek with one hand, her eyes filled with longing.

"Brother, please don't go anywhere anymore, okay?"

Seeing Tong'er's somewhat distant eyes, Yuanhui found himself unable to choose.

Fortunately, the battle situation had stabilized. Wu Xian shrugged helplessly and returned to the bracelet.

"What are you all staring at? Hurry up and send my cousin and me back."

With flushed cheeks, Tong'er looked at the somewhat foolish Yuanhui and sternly ordered the Ghost King, the Ancient One, and the others.

It seemed he had to return to the Capital early today, as he could no longer resist in front of Tong'er. After all, any valid reasons would become worthless before her, as he couldn't refuse!

"Haha, let's go home with my brother!"

Oh no!

"Got it, got it!"

Behind Tong'er were the stern-faced Ghost King and the fierce Ancient One, both glaring at Yuanhui angrily.

"I'd better go back!"

This is bad!

"Teacher, what about Neir?"

With Yuanhui leaving, only Luoshen and Neir would be left. He couldn't bear to think about it, holding his head in his hands.

"Don't worry, your teacher will handle it. You go back with this girl!"

After all, they were all of the new generation of divine bloodline, while Wu Xian was close to the first generation!

Tong'er, who was impatient, didn't leave him any room for consideration, forcefully opening a teleportation gate.

"Hehe, in less than half a second, we'll be back home!"

*Swoosh!*

A blue light flashed, and the previously empty space turned into—The Divine Temple!?

The magnificent temple was many times higher than the imperial city in the Capital, but the current capital was covered in dark clouds, with only mournful cries seemingly heard from within the palace.

"It seems the battle has completely ended."

Watching the firelight disappearing from the sky and the sounds of cannons and spells dissipating in the distance.

"It seems Father has started to take action!"

A cold sweat dripped down Tong'er's face as she knew her father had unleashed his sword to kill!

"Hurry! Ghost King, use the Shadow World to teleport us!" Tong'er was clearly anxious, there must be something fishy going on, Yuanhui thought.

...

"No! Ahh, why?" A silver-haired handsome young man walked alone on a path leading to who knows where.

"Tong'er sister?" The young man's body reached its limit, and his Chi started to riot.

The world around him showed its darkest side, ultimately devouring the silver-haired young man. The black world seemed to be repelling something terrible, about to turn into reality!

"Vienna, it's the Vienna Academy." In Yuanhui's memory, this academy ranked just below the nearly destroyed Imperial Academy, so the Vienna Academy rightfully earned the title of the Royal Academy.

"Tsk!"

"What?" Tong'er sister looked at the strange Yuanhui and realized she misspoke, hurriedly explained, "Oh, I just think this academy is pretty good."

"Oh, I see..." Tong'er sister smiled and waved her hand, saying, "Actually, the gap between Vienna and the Imperial isn't too big, other than the lack of teacher resources compared to the Imperial Academy, there's not much difference."

Indeed, the most precious asset of a school is its teachers. With the guidance of an experienced king level mentor, a student could step into the realm of demi-gods with ease!

Suddenly, Tong'er noticed a faint red glow appearing in the palm of Moon Dragon's hand, and in front of him was Ronnie, the eldest son of the Luo family, a mid-level reverse practitioner, whose strength surpassed his sister's.

"Kid, it's you who took my sister!" Ronnie's hand revealed a faint yellow Chi.

"Your sister... me?" A stunned Yuanhui pointed to his nose in surprise.

"You're dead! I will deal with you sooner or later!" After saying that, Ronnie retracted his Chi and left, leaving a bewildered Yuanhui alone, thinking of Shadow Yuanhui in a flash.

"This is bound to cause trouble now."

(Dueling Arena)

"Secret Technique - Esoteric Mantra!" Yuanhui's cultivation was far below that of a deity, and with such a difference in strength, the runes he pinched in front of his chest naturally failed to take shape!

"Hmph, you're a useless piece of trash, you're dead!" The so-called Big Brother Du swung his iron hammer arrogantly, releasing the pressure of his spiritual power without reservation.

"Power of the Earth!" The attacking means of a reverse-level martial artist were indeed extraordinary. Just the elementary footwork of the Power of the Earth had such a strong aura. If it were Nine Hearts...

Yuanhui could hardly imagine.

"Ha!" Big Brother Du roared in anger, the terrifying wave triggered an earthquake and the earth began to crack. The Ji Yao Tai as a novice competition platform could not withstand the violent destruction of the nine-hearted level. Yuanhui lightly tapped the ground with his toes and took off into the air, shattering the ground below with the power of the earth spirit.

"But unfortunately, you're too arrogant!" Yuanhui, who had condensed the Esoteric Mantra, absorbed the rune into his left palm.

"This is your downfall, allowing the opponent to know you too well!"

"Dragon Return Fist!" A Nine Hearts level Dragon Return Fist was enough to kill a reverse pinnacle practitioner with a punch, but it had no effect on him at all!

"Drink!"

The Dragon Back Fist was wielded so skillfully that it heavily hit Ronnie in the face, causing the ground within a radius of ten meters to sink instantly.

"Utterly foolish!"

Under this heavy blow, Du Laoda not only emerged unscathed but also taunted Yuanhui.

"With your small physique weaker than mine from the start, your left fist barely scratches my skin, perhaps your right fist could at least give me a superficial wound, hahaha!"

Looking at Ronnie, who was carried away by his own success, Yuanhui, who had already retreated to his original position, was murmuring Chi under his breath and then sneered.

"Why not take a look at the new art on your body, dear Ronnie?"

"What is this?"

Du Laoda, stunned, checked his body and indeed found several faint runes that were constantly deepening in color, absorbing the power of his star core!

"Dammit!"

Juxi, who had an absolute advantage, did not dare to slack off in the slightest, desperately catalyzing the runes in his body.

Mantra secret words act as a vessel for the soul, and the soul power of a Saint has not yet reached the stage where it can be controlled freely. Only those above a certain level can manipulate their soul power to counteract mantra secret words, much like the Ice Emperor's true form.

The power of mantra secret words is not only that; when the enemy resists using their true form, mantra secret words can consume their own soul power to continue to strengthen their Chi absorption!

"How could this be?"

Despite relying on the power of the earth, Du Laoda was inexplicably cut off by the arcane runes manipulated by Yuanhui.

"You monstrous creature! I..."

Ripples of energy shielded this spatial layer, severing the connection between Yuanhui and the mantra secret words!

Just as he looked towards the source of the disturbance in horror, a figure darted across the platform.

"Frost Blade, Furious Gale!"

The wind blades cutting through the jungle pierced towards Yuanhui, who was caught off guard.

And the one who launched this sudden attack turned out to be a Martial Artist in the Nine Hearts later stage!

It seems that the rules of today's match have completely gone off the rails...

"Who's attacking me from the shadows? We don't do clandestine deeds in broad daylight—show yourself!"

Yuanhui, who had finally steadied himself, roared in anger.

"You, you scum who tarnishes the name of Martial Artists, are unworthy of being one!"

"You sharp-tongued brat, how dare you hurt my son, Luo Wenpeng! Today, watch as I don't allow you to be buried here!"

Seeing his father come to support him, Du Laoda immediately pretended to be a wounded child, crying in a childish voice.

"Daddy, he's using his strength to bully me!"

"Shut up! You useless son really has a stroke of luck today, causing trouble everywhere and almost costing yourself your life! Wait until we get back, and I'll thrash you!"

Seeing his useless son acting so helpless, the father felt helpless.

At the entrance gate, Wu Tong'er made a grimy expression, while Yuanhui, with his hands on his hips, mockingly remarked.

"Oh! The useless son is supported by his father. Tsst tsst."

"You, brat, are you so eager to die?"

Luo Wenpeng was completely surrounded by the wind blades, traces of the winds! The puppet of the wind dragon?

Yuanhui sensed the aura of the Dragon Emperor, and he believed he was absolutely right.

"To dare harm my clan member of the Wu family, Luo Wenpeng, are you tired of living?!"

Wu Prince Luo suddenly appeared on the eaves of the Elder's Stage. Not only was Chii emanating from him stronger than in the Wangu Mountain Range, but his appearance also seemed to be in his twenties, giving Luo Wenpeng an overwhelming sense of pressure.

"If you lay hands on the younger generation, are you planning to not have a place in the mainland in the future?" Luo Wenpeng quickly countered with reason.

"Your Royal Highness Luo, this matter has nothing to do with my son. Clearly, it was that little devil who made the first move!"

By saying this, he managed to make Luo upset.

"It seems like it was your son who injured me first!"

Yuanhui also spoke without hesitation, after all, facts are facts!

"Well... Hmph, let's wait and see!"

Leaving behind a harsh remark, Luo Wenpeng intended to escape with his son.

"Such wishful thinking!"

Wu Qiulan clenched her hand towards Luo Wenpeng, the Ninth Heart powerhouse instantly felt like all his internal organs were fighting each other.

"Bang!"

Luo Wenpeng's eyes rolled back, and his body burst from the inside out. As for Ronnie, he was directly blasted by the explosion onto the wall, and as he fell to the ground, he was already a lifeless body!

The control of the power of the stars of the Ninth Heart is far inferior to that of the Boundary Defining expert. The gap becomes apparent from the Ninth Heart onwards, making it almost impossible to kill across realms.

When using the power of the stars in a solo fight against a Boundary Defining expert, one only needs to focus intensely, thus causing the Chi inside the opponent's body to explode and achieve an instant kill!

Ronnie, who was still unconscious, and students from other levels, all fell to their knees begging for mercy.

"If you disperse now, I might spare your lives," Wu Qiulan said, covering Yuanhui's mouth.

"But if you beg for mercy and then seek revenge later, so... you shall all perish!"

As soon as she finished speaking, at the moment Wu Qiulan activated her mind, flames erupted beneath everyone's feet, turning everyone except Ronnie into ashes.

"Ronnie is Prince Luo's son. If we kill him, our days will not be easy!"

Wu Qiulan lifted Ronnie and threw him onto the elder's platform.

"It's fortunate that this boy fainted today. Otherwise, even if she is the only daughter of the Sacred God Emperor, I..."

"What about it?" Wu Tong'er walked out from the corner, glaring at the old Wu disdainfully.
