Luo Yu's indifferent voice echoed between the towering stallion and the muscular man.
It conveyed an unquestionable certainty.
Huyan Li and Huyan Badao and others were stunned for a moment.
Staring blankly at Luo Yu, their broad faces wore expressions of unparalleled brilliance.
They couldn't believe what they had just heard with their ears.
Huyan Li looked at the handsome young man in the wheelchair below, his face comically twisted as he raised an eyebrow towards Shui Bing'er, "What's going on with Tianshui Academy?"
"Seven girls as beautiful as flowers, and you don't send a tutor to escort them. Instead, you found a cripple and a fool to tag along and slow them down. Is this a joke?"
Shui Bing'er's pretty face was incredibly serious.
"You'd better do as our men say."
"Otherwise, you really will die."
Huyan Li turned his head, "Brothers, what is she talking about? I don't understand."
The burly youth beside him said sarcastically, "Big brother, still don't understand?"
"This woman means that the pretty-boy below, who can't even truss a chicken, could wipe all seven of us out, including the Soul Douluo Level Badao Elder."
Huyan Li's mouth gaped open, "Are you crazy? What kind of joke is this?"
The Iron Tower Great Han, Huyan Badao, rode his towering horse closer to Luo Yu.
Looking down from on high, his bell-like big eyes bore down on him.
"Kid, I want to know who gave you such confidence."
"To talk to this Elder in such a manner."
"Do you have someone backing you?"
Huyan Badao had his own calculations and did not act impulsively.
Even though the one in front was a trivial cripple, there might be a powerful force behind him.
Better to ask and clarify before making a move, definitely nothing wrong with that.
The reason he tolerated the students teasing the Heavenly Water Girl Group was naturally because he was confident that he could subdue those seven women in an instant without any noise leaking out.
Even if Tianshui Academy found out that seven female students were bullied, the current strength of Xiang Jia Battle Team was fearless.
Luo Yu did not even spare him a glance.
He bowed his head, rubbing his own flawless, jade-like fingers.
"Three——"
"Two"
The burly men of Xiangjiazong spat out a mouthful of spit in disdain.
"Damn, this is just outrageous; he's actually counting down?"
"He dares to count down?"
Huyan Li sneered, "Let him count; what can he do after he's done counting?"
"What kind of waves can a mere cripple stir up?"
Huyan Badao, with his arms crossed, wore a smirk full of delight.
Sitting atop his horse, looking as if he were waiting to be proven wrong.
"One."
Luo Yu finished counting down, and the people from Xiangjiazong remained unmoved.
Moreover, they were all looking at him with great interest.
"Finished counting, so what now?"
"Waiting for you to take us on, come on then."
"Damn, it's so absurd; you've managed to snatch all the bamboo shoots on the mountain, knowing well that he can't stand up."
"I, Huyan Li, am willing to crown you the king of trash talk."
Luo Yu's eyes were calm like still water, devoid of any ripples.
Small fish and shrimps, a mere handful, couldn't stir his heart in the slightest.
He turned his head to look in the direction of Shui Bing'er and the seven girls.
"Bing'er, Yue'er, stay a little further away from me."
"Wait a minute; I might not be able to hold back my strength."
"Okay!"
Shui Yue'er obediently agreed and quickly led the girls to retreat ten meters away.
Xue Wu clutched her chest, her face full of anticipation, seemingly excited.
"To see Brother Luo take action again is so thrilling!"
"It's not easy to see Brother Luo seriously make a move."
Shui Bing'er, Ming Mei, and the others had eyes full of changing colors, wide-open, not wanting to miss any detail.
Luo Yu shook his head, "That's not far enough, move further away."
"Ah?" Shui Bing'er was taken aback, "Still not far enough?"
"Sister, don't ask anymore; if Brother Luo asks us to move, we better hurry and retreat."
Shui Yue'er pulled Shui Bing'er and started running backward.
With her beautiful legs taking large strides, Shui Bing'er's eyebrows tightly knitted together, the tearing pain constantly transmitting through her body, she tightly pursed her red lips, controlling herself not to make a sound.
"Hehe, I understand now, you kid want to sacrifice yourself to give them a chance to escape, don't you?"
Huyan Badao suddenly laughed, his tiger-like eyes sparkling with a penetrating light, looking as though he had seen through the little ruse.
"Boom!"
The gigantic Diamond Mammoth Elephant exuded a burst of fierce might, its already majestic body swelling further, every inch of muscle rising prominently, veins bulging.
"Kid, I can only tell you that your wishful thinking has come to naught."
"Someone your age can't possibly comprehend how terrifying the strength of a Soul Douluo is."
"If I wanted, no matter the distance they have put between us, not one of those seven girls would be able to escape today."
Eight fierce black horses stood side by side, blocking Luo Yu's path.
With Huyan Badao leading the Xiang Jia Battle Team, seven opened their Martial Souls and mocked him with cold laughter, displaying a look of utter contempt, "Make your move, if you're anything but all talk, or have you gone soft exactly when it's time to act?"
Faced with looming oppression and collective ridicule, Luo Yu sat there, as immovable as a deity.
He slowly shook his head.
His hands grasping the handles of the wheelchair, under everyone's watchful eyes.
He gritted his teeth, his body wobbling unsteadily, as he struggled to stand up.
Standing upright, he seemed as though he might fall over at any moment.
Compared to the eight towering horses in front of him, he indeed seemed a bit small.
"What is he trying to do?"
"Staggering about like that, he looks like he'd struggle to even get on a bed, yet he wants to challenge us?"
"He must be aiming for a pity play."
Huyan Li and the others burst into laughter, almost to the point of tears, as if they were watching a clown perform.
Shui Bing'er and the other girls hiding in the distance also showed puzzled expressions.
"Something's not right, why has Brother Luo stood up?"
The next second, a gust of wind suddenly rose from the flat ground, blowing up the sand from the surface.
A lock of hair on Luo Yu's forehead was blown aside, revealing his handsome, otherworldly face.
"Boom!"
A thunderous roar of a Nine-colored Divine Dragon resounded as a winding and magnificent dragon soared into the sky, hovered in the void, and finally plunged back into Luo Yu's body.
Six soul rings glinting with golden light emitted a terrifying aura, dazzling to the extreme.
The smiles on Huyan Badao, Huyan Li, and the others abruptly ceased, their mouths hanging open so wide they could not close them, staring in disbelief at the spectacle before them.
"What... what's going on?"
"What's up with this crippled guy?"
The black horses beneath them trembled, the Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul let out a shrill cry, their brains ringing continuously, their souls trembling under the Dragon Might.
The seven girls at a distance had their radiant faces full of excitement, their beautiful eyes shimmering with a mesmerized look.
And yet, all this was just the beginning.
"Boom!"
As if a thunderclap from the ninth heaven descended to the mortal realm, exploding with a world-shaking, earth-shattering sound.
Luo Yu's legs erupted with blindingly brilliant golden light, and rune chains of silver entangled his legs, densely wrapped chains restraining him, yet also protecting him.
"What is this?"
Both the seven girls and people like Huyan Li widened their eyes in confusion.
"Break!"
Luo Yu's left leg shook violently.
With a crisp snap, half of the chains on his left leg shattered, breaking into pieces.
In an instant, the golden light surged, endless qi and blood leapt from the broken chains, creating a storm that swept over the entire place, earth-shattering and formidable.
"Bang bang bang!!"
The horses let out cries of terror, desperately struggling to flee, but their hooves gave out completely under the force of Luo Yu's might, and they fell to their knees with a thud.
People were thrown off the horses, in utter disarray.
Both the Tian Shui girls and people like Huyan Li were caught in an uncontrollable shock.
Especially Huyan Badao, his mind trembling, almost tearing at the corners of his eyes.
"What... what is happening!"
Luo Yu's eyes focused, his pupils flashing with Purple-Gold Divine Light.
"Survive my kick, and I'll spare your lives."
"Crush!"
Luo Yu kicked out, qi and blood roiling, the earth groaning in protest.
A raging wind swirled, and a boundless might descended as if it were the end of the world.
At this moment, not one of the eight from Xiangjiazong could laugh anymore.
Their faces turned pale, resembling death as their bodies uncontrollably trembled in extreme fear…
