"You'll pay the price for your arrogance!"
Yu Tianheng roared.
"Blue Lightning—possess me!"
Lightning surged across his entire body. Aside from that, only his right arm changed—swelling larger and longer as it transformed into a dragon claw covered in blue scales, electric serpents coiling around it.
"So this is the legendary Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex?"
Bai Mu watched with interest.
"That's pretty interesting."
Yu Tianheng didn't dare be careless. If the other party dared to face him barehanded, then he clearly had something to rely on.
In the next instant, Yu Tianheng moved.
His speed was terrifying. The first and third spirit rings beneath his feet lit up simultaneously.
"Blue Lightning Dragon Claw!"
"Thor's Wrath!"
Two powerful soul skills were unleashed in rapid succession!
Blue-purple lightning erupted, making Yu Tianheng look like a thunder god incarnate. The lightning within his body surged wildly, gathering terrifying power into his right claw as it tore through the air toward Bai Mu's chest!
Even a Soul Master would suffer heavy injuries if hit by this attack!
"Is that your strongest move?"
A faint smile appeared on Bai Mu's lips.
He suddenly reached out, spread his five fingers, and grabbed forward with his bare hand.
Bang!
Under everyone's stunned gazes, the Blue Lightning Dragon Claw slammed directly into Bai Mu's palm, producing a dull explosion.
Sparks flew everywhere—yet Bai Mu didn't budge an inch, as if the strike had hit an immovable mountain.
Yu Tianheng's pupils shrank violently.
It felt as though his dragon claw hadn't struck flesh and blood, but ancient black iron!
A terrifying numbness surged through his arm.
"That's it?"
Bai Mu said calmly.
He closed his fingers and seized Yu Tianheng's dragon claw—then twisted hard.
Crack—
The sound of joints dislocating rang out.
"Ah—!"
Yu Tianheng screamed in agony, lost his balance, and dropped to one knee.
"What the hell?!"
"The boss's attack was stopped just like that?!"
"That kind of power—and he blocked it barehanded?!"
The Heaven Dou students watching were completely dumbfounded. What kind of monster was this?!
"That's… incredible…"
Tang San stared blankly.
Even with the Mysterious Heaven Technique and Mysterious Jade Hand, even if he had the same soul power as Yu Tianheng, he absolutely could not block that head-on.
But Bai Mu did it—and did it effortlessly.
What did that mean?
It meant Bai Mu's physique alone was enough to crush a Soul Sect!
"Good thing I'm smart."
Zhao Wuji muttered, secretly relieved he hadn't agreed to fight earlier.
Bai Mu's physical body alone was already comparable to his normal state.
One could only imagine how terrifying Zygarde would be.
"I knew it… this guy's insanely strong."
"Mm."
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance, faint blushes appearing on their faces.
"Hehe~ If the two little sisters can't handle it, then I'll suffer a bit and take on the responsibility of satisfying Bai Mu."
Dugu Yan licked her lips, her gaze alluring.
"You're lying! I don't believe you're that tough!"
Ning Rongrong snapped angrily.
Even with joint efforts, they couldn't handle it—what made her think she could?!
"Some people—some snakes—are just exceptionally gifted in this area."
"And I happen to be both human and snake."
Dugu Yan's eyes narrowed, her pupils turning vertical like a venomous serpent's.
"Bi… Bilin Snake."
Ning Rongrong's expression changed instantly.
Oh no—this shameless vixen actually has a terrifying background!
On the field—
Bai Mu didn't press the attack.
He released his grip and looked down at Yu Tianheng, who was kneeling before him.
"Are you alright?"
His tone was calm, without mockery or pride.
"Hmph!"
Yu Tianheng gritted his teeth, forcibly reset his dislocated wrist, and retreated two steps to widen the distance.
This time, he fought smarter.
Instead of clashing head-on, he relied on speed and maneuvering.
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex was known for explosive power—he refused to believe he couldn't even touch the edge of Bai Mu's clothes!
"Thunderous Force!"
His second spirit ring lit up. Lightning surged, and a thick electric serpent ripped through the air toward Bai Mu.
Bai Mu lightly tapped the ground and sidestepped easily.
Whoosh!
At the same moment, the dragon claw slashed in from the left.
Bai Mu raised his hand and casually slapped it aside.
Yu Tianheng immediately changed tactics, avoiding direct clashes and instead attacking Bai Mu's openings.
In just three breaths, he launched seventeen consecutive attacks.
Every strike was ruthless. Every strike was full force.
Yet not a single one landed.
Bai Mu barely moved his feet, simply lifting his hands again and again to neutralize everything.
"How… how is this possible…"
Yu Tianheng gasped for breath, disbelief filling his eyes.
His terrifying lightning couldn't break through Bai Mu's defenses in the slightest.
His strength couldn't even shake Bai Mu's balance.
What was wrong with this man's body?!
"Had enough? My turn."
Bai Mu spoke calmly, raised his hand, and threw a punch.
No tricks. No flourish.
Just a straightforward punch—
fast as lightning, heavy as a mountain.
"Blue Lightning Dragon Claw!"
Yu Tianheng instinctively crossed his arms to block—
Bang!
It felt like being rammed head-on by a charging rhinoceros!
His arms went numb as his chest was struck squarely.
He was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground dozens of meters away!
Dust billowed into the air.
The entire arena fell deathly silent.
Pfft!
Yu Tianheng spat out a mouthful of blood and tried to stand—but agony wracked his entire body, leaving him unable to move.
His hands felt as though they no longer belonged to him.
Staring up at the sky, he was forced to accept the truth.
He lost.
Completely. Utterly. Without dignity.
The opponent hadn't used a martial soul, soul skills, or even a soul bone.
Barehanded—pure physical strength—he'd been crushed into the dirt.
Failed in love.
Crushed in battle.
Looks… not even worth comparing.
In every aspect—aside from family background—he was inferior.
Even that background might not compare.
Heh… total defeat.
Crack—
At that moment, Yu Tianheng's Dao heart shattered like glass.
"Little Dragon."
Bai Mu walked over and squatted down before him, his tone gentle—almost kind.
"Don't worry. If Yanzi behaves, I'll take good care of her."
He paused, smiling sincerely.
"But you… it turns out you really aren't good enough."
"No wonder Yanzi chose me."
A direct stab to the heart.
"Y-you—!"
Yu Tianheng felt sweetness rise in his throat as blood surged upward.
He glared at Bai Mu, resentment, anger, and humiliation twisting together—
Yet he couldn't say a single word in rebuttal.
In a Soul Master's world, weakness itself is the original sin!
It hurts. It hurts so much!
"Oh, right."
Bai Mu suddenly seemed to remember something, his eyes lighting up.
"I've heard the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan has quite a few beautiful female Soul Masters…"
He smiled broadly.
"Need any help taking care of them? I can accept a few."
"Age doesn't matter—as long as they're pretty and have good figures…"
Before he could finish—
A hand silently reached up and twisted his waist.
Bai Mu sucked in a breath, turned his head, and met Ning Rongrong's blazing eyes.
