Chapter 274: Eleven Sequences, Gu Yun!

Li Mu lost.

He lost due to his arrogance.

Li Mu stared blankly as Su Yu shattered his sword qi storm with a single punch, his pupils already scattered.

He was like a puppet, gazing at Su Yu before him.

His mind and spirit were tumultuous.

The entire arena fell silent again.

The whole square was dead silent, many people looked at Su Yu with complex expressions.

Li Mu lost.

It was as if he had become the final straw that broke the camel's back, completely silencing them.

A newcomer who had only just entered the academy a few months ago, and had even been expelled after merely attending the opening ceremony at Qianlong Academy.

In just a few short months, he went straight from a Golden Body Realm kid to a Flying Heaven Realm Perfection powerhouse.

In one move he defeated Qianlong Academy's top Flying Heaven Realm expert, Li Mu!

You know, Li Mu's reputation is absolutely genuine, no watering down.

As a descendant of the Li Family, he also possessed Flying Heaven Realm Perfection cultivation, his swordsmanship was divine; even a typical expert who had just entered the Star Ancestor Master rank might not be able to defeat Li Mu.

However, before Su Yu...

One punch! The battle was settled with just a single punch!

"Impossible!"

Li Mu stood where he was, blankly shaking his head, muttering.

"Impossible! How could I lose?"

He suddenly lifted his head, looked at Su Yu, and his eyes instantly turned blood-red.

"I cannot possibly lose!"

Li Mu let out a loud shout and charged at Su Yu again.

Su Yu's brow furrowed slightly, his body flickered lightly, he dodged Li Mu's attack and kicked him in the buttocks.

He kicked Li Mu straight off the stage.

Su Yu came to the edge of the stage, glanced lightly at Li Mu, and said.

"Is this Qianlong Academy's top Flying Heaven Realm expert? You can't accept defeat? If this were the battlefield, I would have killed you countless times already!"

Su Yu's deep gaze fell on Li Mu, who couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"If it weren't for Qianlong Academy protecting you, someone like you, a piece of trash, would amount to nothing."

Su Yu said lightly.

However, those words were like knives, stabbing into Li Mu's heart.

Li Mu's body trembled, not knowing whether from anger, fear, or... unwillingness!

Su Yu turned around, looking at the surrounding Qianlong Academy students.

At this moment, the gaze of all Qianlong Academy students toward Su Yu underwent a complete transformation.

Some merely felt endless respect.

It was the respect of the weak for the strong!

Yet, facing everyone's respect, Su Yu gave a cold chuckle.

"A bunch of trash! You'll drag Qianlong Academy's reputation through the mud!"

"You have blessings but don't know it; clearly you could reach a higher level, yet you're so slack—no wonder Qianlong Academy fell from the Five Great Academies; it's not the fault of the principals or teachers, but because Qianlong Academy has trash like you!"

Su Yu rebuked the crowd.

Many clenched their fists involuntarily, and even some of the more sensitive among them had bloodshot eyes, staring fixedly at Su Yu, breathing raggedly.

Their chests rose and fell continuously.

"I am not trash!"

A youth in purple robes shouted.

Su Yu said lightly.

"Not trash? Come on, tell me how many years you've been in Qianlong Academy, and what cultivation level you're at now."

Upon hearing that, the person deflated like a punctured balloon, speaking weakly.

"Three years, mid Flying Heaven Realm..."

Su Yu let out a cold snort.

"In three years you've only reached mid Flying Heaven Realm—if you're not trash, who is? Although Qianlong Academy isn't one of the Five Great Academies, its resources are in no way inferior to those of the Five Great Academies; in Qianlong City, some soldiers, given three years and such resources, could all reach mid Flying Heaven Realm."

"And you? You're just a waste of resources, trash!"

"If I were the principal of Qianlong Academy, I would have long since kicked you lot out completely!"

Su Yu rebuked them.

Finally, someone couldn't hold back.

"Su Yu, what are you even? The principal hasn't said anything, yet you come out with this—do you really think, just because you're a disciple of the Slay Dragon King, you can do whatever you want?"

A student in red robes couldn't help but speak up.

Su Yu's words were truly harsh to hear.

It was nothing short of reducing them to utter worthlessness.

Although their cultivation lags behind that of the Five Great Academies' members, compared to other martial arts academies they are who knows how many times stronger.

Although Qianlong Academy admits anyone regardless of background and has low entry barriers, those who manage to succeed in entering can be seen just by passing the opening ceremony.

Not a single one is good-for-nothing.

Useless people had already been screened out at the opening ceremony.

Those who remained were either mentally resilient or possessed exceptional talent.

However, at some point, a trend of slacking began to sweep through Qianlong Academy, and many people became deeply entrenched in it.

This is why Zhao Tianxing had Su Yu come back.

The purpose was to stimulate this bunch of old slickers.

Su Yu also knew this well; after defeating Li Mu, he immediately began to employ his sharp tongue.

"A bunch of trash that Qianlong Academy has to support, and you still dare to talk to me here!"

Su Yu let out a cold laugh, his face full of mockery.

"If I remember correctly, according to Qianlong Academy's rules, those in red must not defy those in purple. Based on what you just said, I can execute you on the spot!"

That red-clothed youth's face instantly turned pale, and he stammered.

"Does being in purple give you the right to insult us at will? Su Yu, what do you think of us?"

However, as his words fell, a terrifying blade aura exploded beneath his feet, and a powerful shockwave instantly enveloped him.

Thud!

Then a parabolic arc was seen, landing perfectly in the square.

Su Yu glanced at him indifferently.

"Rules are rules; if you don't accept them, come challenge me!"

Upon hearing this, some who were itching to move instantly froze.

Challenge Su Yu?

What a joke!

Haven't you seen that Li Mu was defeated by Su Yu? He is the second-strongest existence in Qianlong Academy, only below a Grand Master.

Even Zhang Xiaobai and his group might not be a match for Li Mu.

"Heh heh, as expected of the Slay Dragon King's disciple, you indeed bear some of his demeanor."

Just as everyone fell silent, a light laugh echoed between heaven and earth.

Everyone looked around, but they could not find the source of the sound.

Only Su Yu slowly raised his head and gazed toward the firmament.

Then everyone realized that, up in the firmament, a youth in white robes stood silently, a faint smile on his lips, looking down at Su Yu.

Upon seeing that white-clad youth, everyone's faces drastically changed, and many showed a hint of fervor.

"It's Gu Yun! I didn't expect him to come as well!"

"It seems Su Yu's arrogance has provoked such an existence; even Gu Yun can't stand it anymore—has he come to deal with Su Yu?"

"Heh heh, Su Yu has now kicked an iron plate; even if he defeated Li Mu, what does it matter? Against Gu Yun, Su Yu is sure to lose."

Many people, upon seeing the youth—that is, Gu Yun's appearance—began to whisper.

Su Yu paid no heed to the others, instead gazing indifferently at Gu Yun standing in the firmament and said.

"Who are you?"

Gu Yun gave a light smile, appearing like a graceful young gentleman.

Gu Yun gently unfolded the wooden fan in his hand, and a gentle voice sounded.

"Qianlong Academy, Sequence Eleven, Gu Yun!"
