Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon! Chapter 103: He’s Desperate

The old yellow ox ambled along, and Guang Xiaoyu was in no hurry either. She cultivated as she traveled, taking seven or eight days to finally reach the royal city of Stone Country.

When Shi Yi received the news, he was stunned for a mont. What is she here for? he wondered.

Soon, a second ssage arrived: Guang Xiaoyu was actually challenging the Divine Body, Chen Shixian.

The entire royal city was astonished.

Shi Yi’s eyes widened, and he hurriedly ran out.

A large crowd had gathered at the entrance of Yuan Martial Academy. Most were disciples of the academy, while a few were passersby or powerful figures from the city’s factions. They all stared intently at the figure at the academy entrance, completely baffled.

Challenge the Divine Body? Hadn’t she already challenged her ten years ago? Was it because she felt uneasy about defeating the Divine Body through that blatant sche and wanted a rematch? But shouldn’t the Divine Body be the one feeling uncomfortable? The Divine Body should be the one issuing a second challenge! Such were the thoughts rippling through the crowd.

At that mont, a man in a green shirt erged and said, "Senior Sister is not at the academy."

Guang Xiaoyu raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Where is she?" she inquired.

"I’m not sure." He shook his head. "Senior Sister left in a hurry a few days ago, and no one knows her whereabouts."

"Can I go in and wait?" Guang Xiaoyu asked.

"Yes, please." He nodded and ushered Guang Xiaoyu inside.

This was her first ti entering Yuan Martial Academy. It was larger than she had imagined, filled with towering structures of distinctive architectural styles. As she walked, she felt nurous eyes scrutinizing her, or perhaps the old yellow ox trailing behind her.

If this had happened before, they might have already started mocking her. But since her return from the Wasteland, news of her vastly increased strength had spread throughout the south. Consequently, even with an old yellow ox in tow, no one dared to whisper a word of gossip.

Such was the power of true strength.

As she passed a plaza, sothing caught Guang Xiaoyu’s attention.

In the center stood a tall statue of a young man. He had a strong physique and handso features, his bright eyes brimming with vitality. At first glance, his Essence Qi Spirit seed abundant and remarkably lifelike.

A faint, almost imperceptible fluctuation emanated from it, surprising her. "Who is this?"

The man in the green shirt glanced at the statue and replied, "The first Dean of Yuan Martial Academy."

"The statue is well made," Guang Xiaoyu smiled.

"Yes!" Speaking of this, the man in the green shirt said with considerable pride, "This was crafted by the first Dean himself before he passed away. The statue contains the most powerful inheritance technique of Yuan Martial Academy; however..."

He hesitated.

Guang Xiaoyu blinked. "But very few people are able to comprehend it, right?"

COUGH, COUGH!

The man in the green shirt looked sowhat embarrassed. "This way, please."

Guang Xiaoyu asked, "Has the Divine Body comprehended it?"

He replied, "No. Of course... Senior Sister has her own cultivation thods; she doesn’t need it."

The most powerful aspect of a Divine Body is its innate cultivation thod. Its bones, blood, and the very depths of its soul are engraved with the Divine Body’s unique Tao, sowhat similar to the bloodline inheritance of the Demon Race.

HMM!

It’s exactly like the Spiritual Beasts, Guang Xiaoyu mused.

Therefore, a Divine Body does not require external Tao.

However, Yuan Martial Academy had to admit one thing: even the Divine Body could not comprehend the Tao within the statue.

In the historical records of Yuan Martial Academy, only three to five individuals had ever managed to do so.

"Give it a try?" Just then, a familiar voice sounded from nearby.

It was Li Pu from the Dayu Dynasty. Dressed in white, he appeared untouched by dust, utterly immaculate.

Guang Xiaoyu smiled. "Wouldn’t that be inappropriate?"

Li Pu said, "Yuan Martial Academy doesn’t forbid external cultivators from attempting Enlightennt here, so... you can try."

She looked at the young man beside her. "Is that so?"

"Yes!" The man nodded. "Anyone not forbidden by the academy is allowed."

Well then, that’s great! Guang Xiaoyu grinned and strode over.

At this ti, quite a few people were still in the plaza, and they all noticed Guang Xiaoyu and Li Pu. After all, the two were representatives of the younger generation.

Having survived six or seven years of tempering in the Wasteland and returned alive, both their cultivation realms were at the Supre Mystery Realm. Breaking through to the King Tao realm was rely a matter of ti for them.

Guang Xiaoyu strode forward, brimming with confidence.

She was, after all, a Demon Emperor who had lived for over a hundred thousand years. If she couldn’t discern the Tao contained within the statue, wouldn’t that be laughable? A re trifle!

Just then, a voice tinged with mockery sounded, "The first Dean of Yuan Martial Academy was a Sage. His strongest legacy is not sothing ordinary people can comprehend."

The speaker was Bai Yunfei from Youming Valley.

Back in the Wasteland, Chen Pingping had tricked him twice, and ultimately, the elder Divine King had been slain due to his connection with the Wuji Sect lineage.

His killing intention was quite intense.

When leaving the Wasteland, he had even attempted to kill Chen Pingping but had failed...

Now, seeing Guang Xiaoyu about to attempt Enlightennt, a plan suddenly ford in his mind: provoke her into attacking him. Then, with his King Tao Realm strength, he could easily kill her.

"Why is he here?" Guang Xiaoyu furrowed her brows.

Li Pu explained, "The great battle of the Central Continent is about to begin, and young cultivators from various provinces are converging. Naturally, we from Nan Zhanbu Province also need to plan carefully."

So that’s how it is!

Guang Xiaoyu’s lips curved upwards. She looked toward Bai Yunfei and mocked, "Yo, yo, yo, if it isn’t our King Tao prodigy?"

Bai Yunfei’s deanor was haughty. "It is I!"

"As the only genius among the younger generation to have broken through to King Tao, may I ask, have *you* comprehended it?" Guang Xiaoyu narrowed her eyes, an overflowing smile playing on her lips as she watched him.

The first few words of praise sounded pleasant to Bai Yunfei, and he quite enjoyed them. However, the subsequent question made his expression darken, and his gaze turned icy.

Soone as powerful as a Divine Body ditated here for half a year and still returned without success. Naturally, I don’t believe my comprehension can match that of an Ancient Divine Body, he thought.

Yet Guang Xiaoyu’s words had thrust him into the lilight.

The first genius among the younger generation to break through to King Tao, and you haven’t comprehended it? No? Then you’re quite pathetic, aren’t you? The unspoken accusation hung in the air.

For a mont, he was rendered speechless, his face stern as he glared at Guang Xiaoyu.

"It seems you haven’t yet!" Guang Xiaoyu’s smile was radiant. "As the first to break through to King Tao, you haven’t even comprehended the Tao of a single statue. I’m afraid your ’genius’ title is fake, isn’t it?"

Damn it! Bai Yunfei fud internally. Angrily, he snapped, "What did you say?"

"Oh dear... he’s getting agitated! He’s getting agitated! Did everyone see that? The ’number one prodigy’ is getting flustered!" Guang Xiaoyu laughed heartily. "Look at him; he looks like he wants to kill . I’m so scared!"

The crowd: "..."

The two clearly didn’t see eye to eye. There was bad blood between them.

Bai Yunfei had mocked Guang Xiaoyu for wanting to attempt Enlightennt, but he hadn’t expected such a sharp counterattack.

Can *you* comprehend it? Have *you* comprehended it? Is *this* the so-called number one prodigy? The barbs in her words were clear.

Seeing the gazes from all around, Bai Yunfei’s expression grew increasingly unsightly. For a fleeting mont, he even felt the urge to strike Guang Xiaoyu down then and there.

Fortunately, his self-control was sufficient. Forcing himself to calm down, he let out a hollow laugh. "Does it matter to you whether I can comprehend it or not?"

"Of course, it does!" she said.

Bai Yunfei was montarily speechless. "..."

"Mocking others when you lack the strength yourself—isn’t that like lifting a rock only to drop it on your own foot?" Guang Xiaoyu stated. "Number one prodigy, what do you think?"

Bai Yunfei clenched his fists, his gaze cold, his killing intention palpable as he held himself back. "You can’t comprehend it either."

"Who said that?" Guang Xiaoyu scoffed.

"I did."

"If I *do* comprehend it, what then?"

"And what if you don’t?"

"Then I, this young lady, will eat shit right here and now!"

"Good! I’ll do the sa!"

"And if you don’t eat it?"

"Impossible! If you comprehend the Tao in the statue, then I, this young master, will also eat shit right here!" Bai Yunfei stared at her coldly, clearly going all in. "But... I have a ti limit. I can’t wait ten or eight years for you, can I?"

"Of course!" Guang Xiaoyu smiled.

"Three days is the limit..." Bai Yunfei declared.

As soon as these words were spoken, an uproar went through the crowd; everyone was shocked and aghast.
