Chapter 32: Chapter 32: You Lost
"Trying to evade? Let's see where you can hide!"
Zhao Wujin smirked confidently, spinning in place to dissipate his forward momentum before charging at Mu Chen again.
As Zhao Wujin attacked, Mu Chen's lips curled into a slight smile. He retracted his right hand and then thrust it forward with force.
**Xuan-Class Low-Level Skill: Fire Blowing Palm!**
A terrifying shockwave erupted from the palm of Mu Chen's hand, blowing Zhao Wujin back with astonishing force.
Zhao Wujin skidded across the ground, staring at Mu Chen in disbelief. At this moment, Mu Chen had not even summoned his martial spirit.
"You didn't use your martial spirit, how did you use a soul skill?" Zhao Wujin asked, astonished.
**Soul Power +700 Points**
Due to Zhao Wujin's shock and the presence of onlookers like Tang San and Flender, Mu Chen harvested another 700 emotional points.
"Because this is a soul skill I created myself!" Mu Chen replied proudly.
"What? You created your own soul skill?" Zhao Wujin's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Yes," Mu Chen nodded.
"You actually managed to create your own soul skill?" The dazed look in Zhao Wujin's eyes shifted to one of admiration.
"Yes. But why are you so surprised?" Mu Chen smiled smugly.
Uh!
Why indeed?
There were countless soul masters in the world, but those who could create their own soul skills were exceedingly rare. A soul master who could develop a unique soul skill was a true genius, one in a million.
Despite Zhao Wujin's status as a Soul Sage, he had yet to create his own soul skill, highlighting just how difficult it was to do so!
"This kid can create his own soul skills; he truly is the one Xiao Gang highly recommended."
Not just Zhao Wujin, but even Flender silently resolved to bring Mu Chen into Shrek Academy.
**Soul Power +1300 Points**
With the crowd's astonishment, Mu Chen gained another 1300 emotional points. In just a short period, his soul power had increased by 2000 points.
But this was just the beginning!
"Good kid, you've got me fired up," Zhao Wujin said, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
Whoosh!
Zhao Wujin charged at Mu Chen once more, his fists and feet striking out with great force.
**Xuan-Class Low-Level Skill: Fire Blowing Palm!**
Despite Zhao Wujin finally getting close to Mu Chen, as he attempted to throw a punch, Mu Chen executed his Fire Blowing Palm again, sending Zhao Wujin flying once more.
After two or three attempts, Zhao Wujin's soul power surged, enveloping him in a protective aura.
"You're breaking your promise!" Xiao Wu exclaimed anxiously.
"I haven't broken my promise. I said I wouldn't use my martial spirit, but I never said I wouldn't use my soul power," Zhao Wujin replied cunningly, a grin spreading across his face. The stronger Mu Chen became, the more determined he was to recruit him into Shrek Academy.
**Xuan-Class Low-Level Skill: Fire Blowing Palm!**
"Is that all you can do?" Zhao Wujin deftly dodged Mu Chen's Fire Blowing Palm while taunting him. With his soul power activated, his speed increased exponentially, allowing him to quickly close the distance to Mu Chen.
Bang!
Zhao Wujin swung a fist the size of a cooking pot toward Mu Chen.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Mu Chen had no choice but to brace himself, crossing his arms in front of his chest. The impact of Zhao Wujin's punch sent Mu Chen crashing into the ground, sliding back and leaving a visible mark behind. He skidded over ten meters.
"Being able to take my punch means you're better than Dai Mubai and that new kid Tang San," Zhao Wujin praised.
Tang San: "…"
Tang San thought to himself, Is this what they call getting hit while lying down?
"However, the disparity in our soul rings is too great, and the attributes imparted by the soul rings give me the upper hand. Plus, my soul power is far superior to yours. You can't compete with me. Come back to Shrek Academy and become one of my students; your issues with Ma Hongjun will be forgotten. What do you think?" Zhao Wujin smiled, applying pressure.
Ma Hongjun: "…"
Ma Hongjun was dumbfounded. Others had to go through layers of selection to enter Shrek Academy. Was Zhao Wujin implying he could force Mu Chen to join?
Ma Hongjun thought in disbelief about how such disparities existed between people!
**Soul Power +250 Points**
Due to Ma Hongjun's reflection, Mu Chen gained another 250 emotional points.
"Not that impressive," Mu Chen replied coolly.
"Do you want to be turned into a pig's head?" Zhao Wujin's eyes narrowed, glaring at Mu Chen.
"Who hits whom is still up in the air!" Mu Chen replied with a calm smile.
"Looks like unless I give you a proper lesson, you won't be willing to join Shrek Academy," Zhao Wujin contemplated, channeling his soul power as he charged at Mu Chen again.
With such a vast difference in soul power, and knowing his Sharingan was active, Mu Chen couldn't compete with Zhao Wujin. Plus, Zhao Wujin's speed had increased significantly, rendering Mu Chen's Fire Blowing Palm ineffective.
Seeing Zhao Wujin's fist coming at him, Mu Chen did not dodge, instead meeting it with his own fist.
A direct confrontation?
Zhao Wujin was taken aback, but he was still determined to strike Mu Chen.
**Xuan-Class High-Level Skill: Eight Extremes Collapse!**
Bang! Bang!
In a fleeting moment, two hidden forces erupted simultaneously.
Bang!
The two collided, with Zhao Wujin staggering back three steps while Mu Chen also took three steps back.
"Is this also your self-created soul skill?" Zhao Wujin asked, astonished.
"That's right," Mu Chen replied, pride evident on his face.
"Good kid, I'm starting to like you more and more. But just now, I only used seventy percent of my soul power. Are you sure you want to continue?" Zhao Wujin asked, his eyes burning with intensity.
At this moment, Mu Chen had already exerted all of his abilities. While he could hold his ground, if Zhao Wujin unleashed all of his power, Mu Chen would undoubtedly lose.
"Of course," Mu Chen declared confidently.
After all, Mu Chen had a hidden task that promised substantial rewards if he defeated Zhao Wujin!
"Alright, be careful then," Zhao Wujin warned.
A surge of tremendous soul power erupted from Zhao Wujin, further enhancing his speed.
Having used his Sharingan and Fire Blowing Palm, and even Eight Extremes Collapse, Mu Chen wasn't sure he could defeat Zhao Wujin, even if he used his martial spirit. However, Mu Chen still had...
A dagger appeared in Mu Chen's hand, with a piece of paper tied around it. The paper was covered in intricate patterns, with a bold character for "explosion" inscribed in the center.
Whoosh!
As Zhao Wujin charged at him, Mu Chen hurled the dagger forward.
Bang!
Zhao Wujin, experienced in battle, effortlessly swatted the incoming dagger away, sneering, "With tricks like this, you can't hope to withstand a stick of incense's time against me!"
"Oh really?" Mu Chen's lips curled into a slight smirk as he fell backward.
Boom!
A thunderous explosion resonated as the paper on the dagger detonated.
Because the detonating symbol was very close to Zhao Wujin, he was caught in the shockwave of the explosion.
Silence filled the air as everyone stared in disbelief.
Who could have imagined that this young boy possessed such an astonishing attack method? Poor Zhao Wujin soared through the air, leaving a parabolic arc before crashing heavily to the ground.
"You lost!" Mu Chen declared coolly.
