Translator: Jn19930 Editor: Jn19930
In the sky above the lake, Su Ling’Er stood in mid-air as she stared down towards the bottom of the lake. She raised her eyebrow slightly. Even with all this, that bastard is actually trying to hide from her?
“Could it be that the Number One Freshman this year is actually a coward?” The boy in white clothes behind Su Ling’Er laughed out mockingly.
“Ling’Er. Watch me drag out that guy for you!” At that moment, he descended down after speaking. When Su Ling’Er noticed this, she did not stop him from rushing towards the bottom of the lake.
Seeing that Su Ling’Er did not object to his actions, he grinned and dense Spiritual Energy surged out from his body. At the same time, his body turned into a figure of light as he rushed down towards the bottom of the lake.
It was evident that he was planning to enter the lake and to drag out Mu Chen from his hiding place.
His speed was extremely fast and the wind pressure from his descent caused a large crater to form on the surface of the lake. Then, he tore past the surface and rushed into the lake. However, a sudden pillar of water burst out like a water dragon from below.
This water dragon smashed heavily on the boy in white clothes. Moreover, the Spiritual Energy within the water dragon had caused the boy to be blown away awkwardly. At the same time, his clothes were completely wet.
As the boy stabilized himself, his expression turned slightly pale. His gaze was firmly fixed at the center of the lake. At that location, a huge whirlpool had formed. And within the center of the whirlpool, a water pillar suddenly burst out. A handsome boy with a slender body had emerged from the water pillar.
When Mu Chen emerged from the bottom of the lake, he stared at the nearby figures before his gaze settled on Su Ling’Er. He frowned and asked: “May I know why you are disturbing my cultivation?”
“So you’re that Mu Chen?”
Su Ling’Er stared at Mu Chen, who had appeared. She carefully observed him for a moment before saying: “I’m Su Ling’Er. You should know why I am searching for you, right?”
So it was her…
Mu Chen frowned and replied faintly: “Are all of the seniors within the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy this narrow-minded? Every time they are beaten within the rankings, they would have to appear in front of me. Could it be that, in your eyes, it is truly difficult to endure a freshman surpassing you?”
Su Ling’Er’s face instantly turned red. She was slightly angered by the tone displayed by Mu Chen. Hmph, this bastard. Just what is there to be proud of? He had only broken her results from a year ago!
“It’s not like I care about the measly title of the Spirit Ranking Rank 1.” Su Ling’Er gritted her teeth as she spoke: “I only wanted to see exactly how special the Number One Freshman this year was. But judging from what I’ve seen, you seemed to be quite ordinary.”
“From the very start, I was just an ordinary freshman.” Mu Chen smiled: “It seems that I’ve disappointed this senior. If that’s all you’ve wanted, then please leave. I still need to cultivate and I have no time to play with you.”
After saying this, he attempted to dive down into the lake again. Judging from his appearance, it seemed that he did not wanted to be related to Su Ling’Er at all.
At this moment, Su Ling’Er was actually dumbfounded. It was the first time that she had seen such a person from the opposite sex act like this in front of her. This surprised her, yet it also angered her.
“Hmph. Boy, Su Ling’Er didn’t let you leave, yet, you actually dare to leave? Stay right here!”
Because he was taken in by surprise at the beginning, the boy, who had turned into an awkward state due to the water pillar, suddenly shouted out loud. His body quickly appeared above Mu Chen as he smacked downwards.
Rumbling Spiritual Energy surged downwards. The extraordinary attack had actually caused waves to spread throughout the surface of the lake.
Since he had turned to this awkward state by Mu Chen previously, he thought that he had shamed himself in front of Su Ling’Er and he naturally wanted to get back his pride. Therefore, he did not hold back in his attack and used his full strength instead.
Seeing that this boy act immediately after he had spoke, his black eyes had turned cold. This person’s strength was similar to Yang Hong. To a certain extent, he wasn’t as strong as Yang Hong after Yang Hong had summoned the Ancient Tiger Dragon.
“You really thought that you can do just anything to a freshman?”
Mu Chen’s hands spun and dark-black Spiritual Energy surged out from his body. Within the Spiritual Energy, a black flame danced around and an extreme heat emerged. In that instant, the water beneath Mu Chen’s foot boiled up.
Mu Chen’s hands turned into a fist as he fired out a punch straight out. The dark-black Spiritual Energy flowed through his arm and rushed out like a lion with blazing black flames. It did not retreat as it collided against the boy in white clothes’s attack.
Spiritual Energy shockwaves stormed out from the place where the two attacks collided. A massive abyss was forcibly ripped apart on the surface of the lake.
But when the two Spiritual Energy collided with each other, the boy in white clothes’s expression changed dramatically. This is because he detected that his Spiritual Energy was being consumed at an alarming rate.
“This person’s Spiritual Energy is quite strange!”
