Another kick landed; Wang Xu showed no mercy as he kicked Xu Yuan’s leg, sending him flying with great force. Xu Yuan’s left leg bone shattered, likely no better off than Song Zhen.
The trainees who saw this scene were speechless. Wang Xu’s formidable strength and ruthless methods had already instilled fear in their hearts.
"Hahaha..." Biting his broken teeth, blood spilling from his mouth, Xu Yuan seemed insane as he laughed out loud.
Injured to this extent and still able to laugh? The crowd was amazed and doubtful.
"Wang Xu, if you have the guts, kill me; otherwise, when I get out, I will throw you, your parents, and all your relatives into an abyss, making them suffer hellish torment!" Xu Yuan’s tone was as cold as if he were a demon crawling out from the abyss, filled with violence.
"I will torture you, torture your parents, making you wish for life yet unable to die!" Xu Yuan laughed madly.
Wang Xu’s expression gradually turned icy, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Xu Yuan’s vindictive nature was something Wang Xu knew all too well. If he didn’t kill him today, there would be endless troubles after getting out!
Wang Xu suddenly realized that becoming an elite trainee and relocating his family to a protected area for shelter was not as simple as he thought.
If Xu Yuan wanted to deal with him, he had a hundred ways. Although action inside the protected zone was forbidden, his parents couldn’t stay there forever. If an opportunity arose, the result would be...
Wang Xu dared not think further, his gaze locked tightly on Xu Yuan.
"You’ve reminded me... If you don’t die, I will never have peace." Wang Xu’s words carried no trace of anger, only a murderous aura.
Xu Yuan’s crazed expression froze, seeing the murderous intent in Wang Xu’s eyes... No, how could this be? The academy had explicit rules prohibiting students from killing each other, or they would face the death penalty.
"If I die, you won’t have it easy. The academy won’t spare you, nor will my father. My family is one of the major families in the Safe Zone. If I die, you..." Xu Yuan panicked; he didn’t want to die. Threatening Wang Xu was just to make him back off, but Wang Xu’s expression showed no intention of sparing him.
"I am Tier Four, and you are Tier Three. Who do you think the academy will protect?" Wang Xu interrupted Xu Yuan, speaking indifferently.
Xu Yuan’s face turned ashen, stammering, "You can’t kill me; my father will kill you, definitely!"
Until now, Xu Yuan still refused to beg for mercy. He always believed Wang Xu feared the power behind him, convinced that Wang Xu wouldn’t dare act... Unfortunately, Wang Xu was no longer the same Wang Xu.
Wang Xu didn’t have the patience to wait any longer; space jumping was about to occur. If he acted back at the academy, it would be like releasing a tiger back into the mountains.
"Wang Xu, the academy is fully aware of every move here. If you act, the consequences are unpredictable!" Tang Yan stepped forward, seeing Wang Xu take a step forward, about to kill Xu Yuan, and spoke quickly.
Her meaning was clear; it wouldn’t matter if the academy hadn’t seen the incident, but if it recorded it all, Wang Xu would face the death penalty from the academy!
Song Zhen also wanted to advise Wang Xu, but Wang Xu raised his hand to signal them to stop.
"Whatever the consequences, I’ll bear them alone." With that, a long knife suddenly appeared in Wang Xu’s hand.
"No! No! No! Don’t kill me, I beg you, don’t kill me!" Xu Yuan’s eyes were filled with terror; he was truly scared now, realizing Wang Xu really intended to kill him, not as a joke!
In the face of death, pride and background meant nothing, none could save his life.
"Beep!" Suddenly, a mechanical voice sounded, and the space-time jump began!
Xu Yuan’s pale face instantly showed ecstasy, this beep like the most beautiful sound he had ever heard; he could survive!
The air began to distort, the surroundings started to change, and the space-time jump was imminent!
Wang Xu’s expression changed; immediately, his long knife sliced without hesitation, creating a perfect arc. In the blink of an eye, space began to jump.
Bright flashes moved, and some trainees had already entered the space-time track.
"Puff!" Xu Yuan’s body shone, indicating he was about to enter the space-time track. His face lit up with the joy of escaping death, but just for a moment, his expression suddenly stiffened, a jet of blood spurted from his neck, and his gaze dimmed.
He was dead, Xu Yuan, having lived a debauched life full of evil deeds, ultimately couldn’t escape the deadly end his fate meted out.
Wang Xu swung his blade, unsure if he had hit Xu Yuan, as an intense dizziness overcame him. He hurriedly put away the long knife, closed his eyes, and a few seconds later, the dizziness faded as he reopened them.
"Ah—" A scream came forth, Wang Xu looked over, and instantly, a long breath of relief escaped within him.
Xu Yuan is dead, his neck almost completely severed, blood flowing everywhere, utterly devoid of breath.
"Wang Xu!" a roar came through, and Cui Badao launched a punch!
The full power of Tier Six exploded, and before Wang Xu could react, he was sent flying backward.
"The second rule of the trial, no killing between students is allowed, I have said it countless times, didn’t you hear?!" Cui Badao grabbed Wang Xu by the collar, lifting his entire body, his tone filled with furious killing intent.
Wang Xu remained silent, he had no choice, if Xu Yuan lived, his family would face disaster, if Xu Yuan died, he would probably die too, but that was not important, Wang Xu was gambling, gambling that as a Tier Four Elite Warrior, he could survive!
Song Zhen and Tang Yan watched this side, worried, as Wang Xu had broken the major taboo of the trial, according to the rules, he could be executed on the spot.
The other three coaches looked at the furious Cui Badao and shook their heads, while He Stone secretly snickered, it seemed like there was one less stumbling block.
"Alright, alright, put him down, you don’t have the authority to dispose of him." Suddenly, an elderly voice came over, and everyone was surprised to see an elderly man with white hair walking towards them.
The white-haired elder looked energetic, dressed in a white robe, leaning on a purple cane, appearing frail, yet no one on the scene thought so.
"Dean!" all the students and coaches respectfully saluted.
"Dean, this beast has killed a student, I must execute him severely!" Cui Badao still refused to put Wang Xu down.
"Alright, Coach Cui, there’s no need to defend him further, right now he’s a Tier Four Elite Warrior, if there’s going to be a punishment, it’s not up to you." The dean said with a smile, waving a hand.
Upon hearing this, Cui Badao hesitated for a moment before finally putting Wang Xu down.
Several coaches looked at the dean, all somewhat surprised in their hearts.
The dean usually didn’t concern himself with external affairs, the affairs of the Genetics Academy’s outer academy were all handled by a few coaches, except for major events, only then would the dean intervene, but this time it was merely a normal trial, how did it alarm the dean to the point of him stepping forward?
Moreover, their gaze swept over Wang Xu, Wang Xu’s Tier Four strength had long been clear to them on the monitoring screen, taking on five Tier Three Warriors simultaneously and instantly killing them, it was evident that Wang Xu’s strength had reached Tier Four.
To possess Tier Four strength at eighteen, Wang Xu could indeed be considered a genius.
"Alright, the coaches will handle the Points calculation, Wang Xu, come with me." The dean said, walking ahead, Wang Xu handed over all the Insect Beast corpses from his Space Ring to the coaches and hastily followed along.
"Although Cui Badao is rather cold, he does care about the students." The dean said.
Wang Xu remained silent, by the time the dean mentioned Cui Badao defending him, he had already realized.
Having killed a student, he should be executed severely, any coach could take action against him, and Cui Badao getting to him first, controlling Wang Xu, was solely to prevent other coaches from making a move.
"However, your talent surprised me." The dean glanced at Wang Xu, "I’ve read through your information, your talent may not be genius level, but it’s superior, yet still a distance from Tier Four, I didn’t expect that you could advance in one go during this trial, impressive, impressive."
Wang Xu himself knew that if he relied solely on his own talent, it might take another two years to reach Tier Four, his advancement was all thanks to that Mysterious Flame.
"Come in." After walking for a while, they arrived at a tall building in the academy, the dean opened a room and went inside.
The room had a classic style, reminding Wang Xu of the style of décor introduced in history books, but that was over fifty years ago, before the Insect Disaster.
"Before the Insect Disaster, I was an official in a small place, later the Insect Disaster broke out, after countless bloody battles, I survived... but I can never forget those days." The dean’s eyes held memories.
An official before the Insect Disaster? Wouldn’t that make him at least thirty years old? Adding these fifty years, the dean did not look like he was eighty years old! Wang Xu was secretly astonished.
"Do you know why I invited you over?" The dean suddenly asked.
"Please enlighten me, dean." Wang Xu replied.
"Your talent is good, with the graduation trial half a year later, you should be able to enter the ’Genius Battle Group’, and I’m here to recruit you." The dean said
Seeing Wang Xu’s puzzled expression, the dean continued, "There are many geniuses in the Genius Battle Group, many forces wish to recruit them under their wing, with the three strongest factions being."
"First is the military represented by the World Government, they can offer you strong power and Cultivation Resources, with the ability to mobilize military forces at any time."
"Second is the Freedom Battlefield represented by the Freedom Alliance, which can provide you with vast Cultivation Resources and ubiquitous alliance warrior support."
"Third is the Extreme Ancient Hall represented by the world’s strongest, ’Luo’."
"And I am a member of the Extreme Ancient Hall, so I sincerely invite you to join the Extreme Ancient Hall." The dean said, looking at Wang Xu.
