Chapter 150: Easy Victory

~7 min read 1,298 words

Yu Tianyun didn't know what Bai He was thinking, but he was full of confidence, so he readily agreed, thinking it would only cost a bit more time.

"Sure, then please have Miss Xiangxiang come over."

After a short while, Bai He brought Bai Chenxiang over; Bai Chenxiang arrived at the center of the hall, lifted her gaze to Yu Tianyun and said, "Fine, I'll compete with you."

Seeing this, Yu Tianyun set down the plain‑tasting tea in his hand and slowly stood up.

At this moment, the two locked eyes, and Yu Tianyun couldn't help but silently praise himself, thinking Bai Chenxiang would be perfect if she were a bit larger.

Her looks were admittedly a fraction inferior to those of his own people, but those of his own had all taken celestial herb, which inherently has beautifying effects, and their cultivation levels were generally higher than Bai Chenxiang's. If Bai Chenxiang had the same conditions, she wouldn't be inferior to them.

Although she was a bit too thin, for the Sensitive One Clan's attack type, being slender was actually an advantage, much like his own Zhu Yun and Zhu Qing, who often complained about their own bulk, causing the women to think they were being pretentious.

Bai Chenxiang proudly lifted her head, looked at the taller Yu Tianyun, and in a coquettish voice asked, "How do you propose to compete?"

Yu Tianyun gave a slight smile and said, "I have always heard that the Sensitive One Clan's speed is astonishing, excelling in agility. Here in this hall, if you can touch any part of my body, you win; otherwise I win, with the limit of one incense stick."

Bai Chenxiang responded without hesitation, "Fine, then light the incense."

Yu Tianyun's storage ring had an enormous space, mostly filled with delicacies and fine wines, though it also held many other miscellaneous items.

He casually reached in, took out an incense stick, a thread of electricity flashed from his fingertip and instantly ignited it; then, with a light flick, the incense was steadily lodged into the floor tile without any tremor, and the tile showed no crack.

Seeing Yu Tianyun's move, Bai He couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, and it further solidified his own resolve.

"Lan Dian Ba Wang Sect Yu Tianyun, please instruct me," Yu Tianyun made a standard invitation gesture, becoming slightly more serious; he didn't want to become another Zhao Wuji, capsizing in a ditch.

Bai Chenxiang sneered, "As everyone knows, the Blue Electric Tyrannosaur Weapon Soul, aside from its thunder attribute, excels in strength rather than speed; I don't think Yu Tianyun can match me in speed," she said, "Sensitive One Clan's Bai Chenxiang. I will… begin…!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Bai Chenxiang's form flashed and she swiftly arrived in front of Yu Tianyun.

However, just when she thought she would touch Yu Tianyun, his figure abruptly vanished from the spot, evading her at an incredible speed.

Bai Chenxiang was startled; she hadn't even seen Yu Tianyun's movement clearly.

Although neither side used a martial soul, in fact speed had already been ingrained in every Sensitive One Clan Soul Master's bones; even without a martial soul aid, their speed is extremely fast, and Yu Tianyun's displayed speed was even faster than hers.

This made her drop her disdain; her dark brows knit, she turned to face Yu Tianyun, her expression becoming intensely focused—just now Yu Tianyun had instantly flashed behind her.

Bai Chenxiang knew she couldn't win without giving her all, so she let out a coquettish shout, her long hair fluttered, arms spread, and she first released her martial soul.

Two yellow Soul Rings rose from beneath her feet, swirling melodiously around her graceful figure.

Yu Tianyun instantly perceived her soul power cultivation and was slightly surprised; at about twelve years old and a level‑28 Great Soul Master, she was already comparable to the students of Steele, truly a prodigy.

"What a pity, the early stage is fine, but later cultivation will demand more resources, and the Sensitive One Clan clearly can't afford that," Yu Tianyun felt a slight regret for her, but he had no intention of being a dupe. Once the martial soul was released, Bai Chenxiang's aura changed abruptly; her arms unfolded, each becoming a wing, her legs bent, and she lunged at Yu Tianyun like lightning.

During the dive, her first and second Soul Rings lit up together; behind her, four afterimages instantly appeared, crystal clear, matching her own, and her speed surged again.

It looked as if five Bai Chenxiangs were simultaneously attacking Yu Tianyun, greatly expanding the coverage area. Though she knew four of the five were phantoms, such a sudden occurrence easily misleads the eye.

Unfortunately, Bai Chenxiang was facing Yu Tianyun, whose spiritual power was at the Title Douluo realm, and he possessed a spiritual soul core; even without using Ice‑Fire Dual Pupils, he perceived Bai Chenxiang's figure clearly, rendering her phantoms meaningless to him.

Yu Tianyun's steps suddenly quickened; his powerful spiritual power let him control every muscle with ease. He still didn't use a martial soul; relying solely on his physical strength, his body drifted through the hall like smoke, evading illusorily.

Even though Bai Chenxiang's speed became extraordinarily fast after releasing two Soul Rings, she still couldn't catch Yu Tianyun's figure; the two continued this chase‑and‑evade as time kept slipping away.

Bai Chenxiang felt a surge of resentment; sweat beads formed on her forehead, and her anxiety grew.

She could see that Yu Tianyun's purely physical speed wasn't much faster than hers, but each time she was about to touch him, he would dodge at the crucial moment, strolling leisurely, as if wielding a cat‑teaser to toy with a mischievous kitten.

At this point, Bai He, watching the battle, was also extremely surprised, but gradually he discerned something: Yu Tianyun was clearly crushing him in strength, his control over his own body was astonishing, indicating his spiritual power was truly profound.

Moreover, judging from Yu Tianyun's tall and robust physique, he wasn't a speed‑specialized Soul Master, which also showed his bodily strength was exceptionally formidable.

So, Yu Tianyun's cultivation was probably not as he imagined; it was the Soul Sect Realm.

He knew his granddaughter had already lost; it wasn't her lack of strength, but Yu Tianyun being too perverse.

Suddenly, Bai Chenxiang's gaze hardened, and she unleashed her family's secret body technique, instantly pushing her speed to the limit.

Yu Tianyun guessed this was probably the Sensitive One Clan's self‑created power‑generation technique; most sects and families have methods suited to themselves, such as the Clear Sky Sect's Chaotic Cloak Hammer Method and Heavenly Nine Absolutes, Chen Xin's Seven‑Kill Sword Technique, the Qi Bao Liu Li Sect's Diverted‑Mind Control, Lan Dian Ba Wang Sect's Dragon Transformation and close‑quarters melee routine, and the Yang Clan's spear method that Yu Tianyun wished to learn.

Yu Tianyun saw this, a slight smile curving his lips, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes, yet he still wasn't touched by Bai Chenxiang.

As the incense was about to burn out, Bai Chenxiang summoned her last ounce of strength, turning her whole figure into a phantom.

Yu Tianyun smiled lightly and said, "It's over, Miss Xiangxiang."

He slightly turned sideways, and Bai Chenxiang's strike missed.

The incense burned out, and Yu Tianyun smiled, "Miss Xiangxiang, I concede."

Bai Chenxiang stood panting in place, a bit disappointed and unwilling to accept that she couldn't even force out his martial soul, yet despite her pride she wasn't unable to lose; she was sincerely impressed by Yu Tianyun's strength.

Then Yu Tianyun turned to Bai He, smiled calmly, and said, "Chief Bai, now do I have the right to spar with you?"
