Chaotic Sword Emperor

Chapter 25 – One punch wasted!

The Grand Elder was somewhat uneasy, but all he could do was help Su Mu clear his name.

"Rest assured, Grand Elder." Su Mu replied with a confident smile. After leaving the Beast Mountain Range, he went straight to the Grand Elder to plot everything, which is why he arrived so late.

However, he did not reveal his strength in front of the Grand Elder.

The Grand Elder took a deep breath and nodded slightly. He had always chosen to believe in Su Mu, seeing him as a loyal and righteous young man, and he still believed in him now.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a loud explosion drew everyone's attention. They saw the Bronze Humanoid in front of Huang Yiyun being sent flying!

"Wow, is Huang Yiyun really that strong?"

"She's almost as strong as Su Yilong!"

The crowd was shocked. Su Yilong had once sent the Bronze Humanoid flying with a single punch, causing them to underestimate Huang Yiyun's strength, but they hadn't expected her to be so formidable.

In contrast, the other candidates were still struggling against the Bronze Humanoid. The gap in strength was simply too vast!

"Huang Junrou is indeed a Pride of heaven, but who would have thought her sister would be so formidable!"

"With that strength, she must be at least in the third level of the Fate Palace Realm. How does the Huang Family keep producing such daughters!"

Huang Shiren turned to see Huang Yiyun defeating the Bronze Humanoid and was completely stunned.

"When did this girl become so powerful!"

In his memory, Huang Yiyun was always playful and rarely seen, and even as her father, he was unaware of her true cultivation level. But today, she had given him a huge surprise!

He couldn't help but smile with relief. No matter how Huang Yiyun achieved it, having two such outstanding daughters was enough to comfort him for life.

The instructors from the four Martial Houses exchanged incredulous glances, astounded by her talent.

"She's so young and yet so strong. She would rank at the top in the Martial House. We must recruit her to our house!" The instructors, who had previously considered expelling Huang Yiyun, were now keen on having her.

As for their desire to recruit Su Yilong, there was no conflict. Su Yilong was so outstanding that any resentment would not last long.

Tian Yuyue's eyes sparkled with delight. She had not misjudged the situation. Then she turned to look at Su Mu, her heart fluttering with anticipation, hoping not to be disappointed.

Huang Yiyun took a deep breath and gave Su Mu a sweet smile, as if to say, "I did well, didn't I?"

Su Mu nodded affirmatively. Although Huang Yiyun had gone mad several times in the Beast Mountain Range, it had its benefits: her meridians were stronger, and her cultivation had significantly improved.

"Brother, that bastard Su Yilong sent the Bronze Humanoid flying with one punch. You have to be stronger than him and crush his arrogance!" Huang Yiyun suddenly spoke vehemently, determined to show everyone who the true genius was.

Su Mu nodded slightly. He would not hide his strength, not for any other reason but to make the Martial House realize how wrong their choice had been!

After the current group finished their tests, he stepped forward.

Seeing Su Mu step out, those who had not yet been assessed instinctively made way for him. Regardless of the past, Su Mu was once the top genius of Anqing City, and his resilience earned their respect.

"Su Mu has made his move."

"I wonder if he can defeat the Bronze Humanoid?"

"Impossible... Su Mu's Dantian was destroyed a month ago. Even if he could recover, he would have to start all over again. At best, he might reach the mid-stage of the Spiritual Agility Realm."

This statement silenced the crowd. Su Mu's era as a genius had passed, and now he was considered a waste. Even if he could cultivate again, what was the point? With a damaged Dantian, he was doomed never to form a seventh-grade Fate Palace again, and there was no hope for a turnaround in this lifetime.

Of the five Martial House instructors, only Tian Yuyue paid attention, while the other four showed disdain.

Su Yilong, on the other hand, was intently focused on Su Mu. Although he had formed a Twin Fate Palace, he wouldn't consider himself successful until Su Mu was dead. As long as Su Mu lived, he was Su Yilong's nightmare!

"Waste, I want to see how capable you really are!"

"Father, where are those stewards and elders?" Su Yilong suddenly remembered those who had pursued Su Mu, wondering what those wastes were doing.

Su Mocheng shook his head, equally fixated on Su Mu.

Facing the Bronze Humanoid, Su Mu looked up, his gaze sweeping over the four Martial House instructors and Su Mocheng and his son, before delivering a straight punch!

"Boom!"

An intense explosion shook the arena, painfully reverberating in everyone's eardrums!

In that moment, there was complete silence!

"Holy... crap!"

"Hisss!"

The next moment, the instructors on the high platform stood up in shock, Su Mocheng and his son's eyes bulged, and everyone present stared at Su Mu, dumbfounded!

Before Su Mu, the Bronze Humanoid was no more, reduced to mere debris on the ground!

"Shattered, it's shattered!" The crowd murmured. Could a person really shatter a Bronze Humanoid with one punch?

Su Mocheng and his son's Adam's apples moved with difficulty as they turned to look at each other, both seeing the shock and even fear in each other's eyes.

"My goodness, this kid is terrifying!" The Grand Elder shivered, unconsciously breaking off a handful of his beard without noticing.

A quick look at "pawread.com" will leave you more fulfilled.

"Awesome!" Huang Yiyun excitedly waved her fists. It was so powerful that it could completely crush Su Yilong!

Huang Shiren's mouth trembled uncontrollably. His mind was blank, unable to utter a word, his eyes completely filled with the image of Su Mu. It was as if he saw the genius who once surpassed the three cities returning!

"When he achieved the seventh-grade Fate Palace, it was under Su Mocheng's exploitation of his resources." A thought suddenly emerged. Perhaps Su Mu's talent was not limited to a seventh-grade Fate Palace, and he had only formed it due to a lack of resources!

"Did we misjudge?" The instructors from the four Martial Houses nearly bit off their tongues, thinking in pain that they had all been slapped in the face by this 'waste'.

"Is this what a true genius looks like?!" Tian Yuyue covered her lips in shock, her mature and seductive demeanor now appearing somewhat cute.

Su Mu withdrew his fist, looking up at the Martial House instructors and spoke indifferently, "Have I passed the assessment?"

The hearts of the four instructors clenched. If he hadn't passed, then no one present could have!

They all suspected that Su Mu was mocking them.

"Congratulations, you've passed the assessment with flying colors!" Finally, it was Tian Yuyue who joyfully announced the result.

It was then that people began to come back to their senses.

"Su Yilong only sent the Bronze Humanoid flying, but Su Mu completely destroyed it with one punch. How terrifying must his strength be!"

The crowd couldn't help but compare Su Yilong and Su Mu. After the comparison, they simply smiled.

"Su Mu is the true genius. Su Yilong, that scum, will always be trampled underfoot!"

"Just trash, nothing compared to a real genius!"

Hearing the crowd's mockery, Su Yilong's face contorted, his head shaking with rage as he glared at Su Mu.

"Su Mu, why didn't you die? Why did you come back? Why must you always be above me?!"
