You're courting death!"
Seeing Mu Yun's mocking expression, Jin Dong was completely enraged. His
sleeves billowed, and a surge of energy seemed to emanate from his body! At
the fifth level of the Body Condensation Realm, the Qi energy generated within the body is more flexible and smoother than physical strength.
At the sixth level of the Body Condensation Realm, the Qi nourishes the meridians; once the meridians are formed, the body's flexibility becomes even more perfect. A punch thrown at this level stirs the air with overwhelming power.
Now, Jin Dong is at the sixth level of the Body Condensation Realm; with formed meridians and surging Qi, a single punch could severely injure a martial artist at the Strong Breath Realm.
In that instant, all the students in the academy hurriedly dodged.
Most of them were at the third or fourth level of the Body Condensation Realm; such a fight was beyond their capabilities.
"Hmph, Mu Yun, you hit me and think you can run away? Not so easy! This time, Jin Dong will teach you a lesson!" Seeing Jin Dong's fierce, tiger-like aura, Diao Yun sneered inwardly.
Meanwhile, seeing Mu Yun's steady and methodical handling of Jin Dong, Miao Xianyu's brows gradually furrowed.
She had recounted Mu Yun's explanation from the podium in the previous class to her grandfather word for word.
Later, her grandfather became very interested in the idea and actually began to test it.
Who knew it would actually succeed!
The formula for the Spirit Gathering Pill might change the entire Southern Cloud Empire, driving her grandfather almost mad.
After much inquiry, upon learning about Mu Yun, her grandfather actually wanted to invite him to his residence for a chat.
The unexpected turn of events in that class had impressed Master Mo and earned Mu Yun's endless praise.
Miao Xianyu grew increasingly curious; had this Instructor Mu been biding his time all along?
Bang bang…
Suddenly, the classroom erupted in chaos, tables and chairs shattered, leaving a mess.
"Damn it!"
Seeing Mu Yun repeatedly dodge his attacks, Jin Dong felt a growing sense of unease.
He was clearly two realms higher than Mu Yun, yet he couldn't defeat him; how could he feel at ease?
"Lingbo Palm!"
Finally, Jin Dong lost his patience and unleashed a Lingbo Palm strike.
The Lingbo Palm was renowned throughout the entire Beiyun Academy, a mid-level Yellow Rank martial art. It used explosive Qi to completely paralyze the opponent's physical strength.
This mid-level Yellow Rank martial art was famous precisely because of Jin Dong!
Back then, Jin Dong used the Lingbo Palm to pass the mid-level instructor assessment, and during the assessment, he used this technique to defeat a martial artist who had just entered the seventh level of the Body Condensation Realm.
"Tear you apart, you piece of trash!"
Jin Dong's hand rose and fell, the air erupting with a buzzing sound. The previously calm air rippled like water, rushing directly towards Mu Yun.
"It's over, Instructor Jin Dong has really
unleashed his power this time!"
"He's even used the Lingbo Palm; Mu Yun can't dodge it this time!"
"Having angered Jin Dong, Mu Yun will be bedridden for at least ten days to half a month!"
A group of students from another class gathered at the classroom door, watching the spectacle, showing no intention of intervening.
Watching their instructor, Mu Yun, make a fool of himself was a pastime they often enjoyed.
"Lingbo Palm? Is it that powerful?" Mu Yun chuckled mockingly as he watched the energy surge towards him with immense destructive force.
If Jin Dong continued to clash with him using only physical strength, it would be troublesome. But once Jin Dong used his internal energy, Mu Yun had plenty of ways to make him retreat.
"You big oaf, you've lost!"
Facing Jin Dong's internal energy palm technique, Mu Yun not only didn't retreat but directly met it head-on.
However, just as everyone was cursing Mu Yun for being out of his mind, he suddenly thrust out a palm in a backhand motion.
That palm strike was so strange; it looked soft and powerless, yet Jin Dong's internal energy was thrown into chaos by it.
"Falling Cloud Sword Palm!"
Without a word, Mu Yun took a step forward, his hand forming a sword, and the palm strike, like a sword, pierced out with a deafening roar.
*Pfft...
* Blood splattered, and Jin Dong collapsed to the ground.
What had happened?
The surrounding students were dumbfounded.
Diao Yun and Mo Yang stood frozen, bewildered.
They had thought Jin Dong's arrival would avenge them, but the plot had taken a dramatic turn; Jin Dong was no match for Mu Yun.
No one could have imagined that Mu Yun, the "good-for-nothing" who had been infamous throughout Bei Yun City for nine years, would suddenly become a martial artist even stronger than Jin Dong in just a few days.
And he had even challenged someone of a higher level!
With a gash in his abdomen from Mu Yun's sword palm, Jin Dong's face was deathly pale. He gasped for breath, staring at Mu Yun in disbelief.
He had actually been defeated by Mu Yun.
And he was at the sixth level of the Body Condensation Realm, defeated by Mu Yun at the fourth level—a humiliating defeat.
"Mu Yun, you piece of trash, what kind of treacherous methods did you use!" Jin Dong still refused to admit defeat, glaring at Mu Yun.
*Bang!*
Hearing Jin Dong's curses, Mu Yun kicked him without a word.
"Trash? Who's the trash?" Staring at Jin Dong, a cold glint flashed in Mu Yun's eyes.
Killing intent!
Mu Yun actually harbored murderous intent towards him.
Jin Dong felt a chill run through him.
"Instructor Mu Yun, that's enough
!"
Just then, a slightly indifferent voice rang out at the classroom door.
The newcomer wore a white robe, his long hair tied back, billowing even without wind. His hands were behind his back, his eyes detached as he surveyed everything. It was
Dongfang Yu!
"Wow, it's Instructor Dongfang!"
"I heard Instructor Dongfang was promoted to Senior Instructor in a few years, and his training might even extend to the capital, Nanyun City!"
"Yeah, Instructor Dongfang is handsome and incredibly talented; he's my idol!"
A figure appeared at the door, and the entire class gasped in surprise, a chorus of infatuated voices erupting.
"Stop? If I were weaker than Instructor Jin Dong today, I'd be the one lying on the ground right now. Would Jin Dong stop?" Mu Yun frowned.
Dongfang Yu was a Senior Instructor at Beiyun Academy, and one of the academy's three most famous handsome men, his reputation resounding throughout Beiyun City.
"Idiot! "
Hearing Mu Yun's words, some of the surrounding students rolled their eyes.
They hadn't expected Mu Yun to say something like that in front of their instructor, Dongfang Yu. Did this guy think that just because he defeated Jin Dong, he could challenge Dongfang Yu?
"After all, we're all instructors. Today, please give me, Dongfang Yu, some face, okay?"
"Give you face? Who do you think you are?"
As soon as Mu Yun said this, an atmosphere of anger filled the classroom. Some female students glared at Mu Yun with fiery eyes.
"Heh... since that's the case, then we'll just have to settle this with force!"
Dongfang Yu smiled bitterly, appearing quite helpless.
"What are you doing?"
Just as the atmosphere became tense again, a shout suddenly rang out.
Dean!
"What are you all doing here?" Seeing a large crowd gathered at the entrance of Mu Yun's classroom, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but frown and shout.
His gaze fell on Mu Yun, and Lu Xiaotian felt even more helpless.
This guy really loves causing trouble lately!
"Dean Lu!"
Seeing Lu Xiaotian arrive, Diao Yun was overjoyed, as if seeing a savior. He hurriedly said, "Dean Lu, today I sparred with Qi Ming. Qi Ming was inferior and lost to me. Instructor Mu Yun disregarded his status and attacked me, his student. Then I went to Instructor Jin Dong to reason with him, but Instructor Mu Yun attacked me and seriously injured Instructor Jin Dong!"
"That's right!"
Mo Yang also stepped forward, his face bitter. "Moreover, Instructor Mu Yun punished me by making me kneel. Please, Dean, do justice for me!"
Hearing the words of these two brats, Mu Yun chuckled but did not explain.
"Dean, it's not like that!"
At this moment, a student suddenly spoke up. It was Qi Ming!
"
Today, Diao Yun brought people to stop me and insulted me. Instructor Mu Yun couldn't stand it and punished Diao Yun!" Qi Ming's face was flushed with tension as he spoke excitedly.
"Moreover, Instructor Jin Dong brought Diao Yun to our class and attacked Instructor Mu. He was inferior and was defeated by Instructor Mu. I can testify to this!"
At this moment, a delicate voice rang out.
It was actually Miao Xianyu!
Mu Yun could understand Qi Ming stepping forward, but he was somewhat surprised that Miao Xianyu would help him.
The most surprised were Diao Yun and Mo Yang!
Qi Ming speaking alone was one thing,
but Miao Xianyu's testimony was quite another.
Miao Xianyu's grandfather was a renowned three-star alchemist in Bei Yun City, treated with great respect even by the dean; her words carried considerable weight.
However, Miao Xianyu usually preferred to tease Mu Yun and embarrass him, yet today she was speaking up for him!
This was highly unusual!
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Dongfang Yu suddenly spoke up, "Dean, the matter isn't clear yet, I think..."
"I have my own judgment!"
Lu Xiaotian stopped Dongfang Yu, saying, "Diao Yun, for bullying classmates and disrespecting instructors, is punished by cleaning the academy for a month. Mo Yang for disrupting class discipline is punished by confinement for a month; go home to reflect. Jin Dong, as an intermediate instructor, for inappropriate conduct, is now demoted to a junior instructor!"
What!
Hearing this, the surrounding students were stunned.
This punishment from Dean Lu was clearly biased towards Mu Yun!
"Go back to your respective classes! What are you doing here?" Lu Xiaotian frowned again and suddenly shouted.
Diao Yun, Mo Yang, and Jin Dong turned pale and fell silent.
In the academy, Lu Xiaotian was the most powerful person; no one dared to contradict or disobey him.
"Mu Yun, you brat, can't you teach your class properly!" As the crowd gradually dispersed, Lu Xiaotian lowered his voice and said to Mu Yun.
"Ahem... I'll pay attention next time, I'll pay attention next time!"
Mu Yun said, about to return to the classroom.
"Wait, I'm here to announce something!" Lu Xiaotian stood at the front of the classroom and suddenly raised his voice, saying, "Given your class's performance, the school has decided to assign you a tutor. Everyone, welcome!" As soon as Lu Xiaotian said this
,
the entire classroom fell silent.
Everyone stared at Lu Xiaotian as if he were a monster.
The dean never cared about the school's trash classes, the useless classes, and assigned Mu Yun, this useless tutor, to teach them. What went wrong with him today that he actually assigned a tutor to come here!
