Su Tu clenched Zhang Muye's skull with one hand, his aura erupting around him without any concealment, a brutally powerful presence rabidly venting, with a touch of mockery hidden in his crimson-gold pupils.
If it were a scion from another family, Su Tu might have given the opposite party a chance to speak.
But this man comes from the Zhang Family, a family specifically named by his own teacher... There's nothing more to say.
Moreover, Su Tu was eager to try out the skill he had recently acquired.
The crimson-gold pupil directly reflected in Zhang Muye's eyes, and as their eyes met, an indescribable power emerged from Su Tu's body.
At this moment, Zhang Muye felt his hairs stand on end, his heart and spirit warning him of an unimaginable danger about to erupt.
However, before Zhang Muye could make any response.
He only felt his heart and spirit begin to blur and distort, his consciousness crumbling and sinking.
"You did it..."
He looked at Su Tu in horror, unable to finish a complete sentence before his eyes lost their original spiritual light, becoming extremely dull and lifeless.
The whole person seemed to have turned into a marionette.
"Only altering the perception of the heart and spirit without involving tangible objects greatly reduces the consumption of heart and spirit."
Su Tu spoke softly.
In the brief moment earlier, he used the Divine Skill: Mistake, altering Zhang Muye's heart and spirit, temporarily turning him into a puppet with no self-awareness.
Previously, when erasing the existence of a stone, Su Tu had nearly depleted all his power of heart and spirit.
But this time, he only changed the existence of the opponent's heart and spirit, consuming only about one-tenth of his power of heart and spirit.
"What did you all do in the Training Camp?"
Without hesitation, Su Tu directly asked, [Mistake] can only temporarily alter the opponent's perception; this person may wake up at any moment.
Instead of judging the truth in the other's words, this approach is much more straightforward.
Upon hearing Su Tu's question, Zhang Muye spoke, one word at a time, like a marionette.
"Chen Daowen and Wang Gao harvested all the points in the entire Training Camp, those ordinary martial artists..."
Zhang Muye told Su Tu everything he did in the training camp, without a hint of concealment.
He even spoke of playing a first-person shooting game with a female student.
With Zhang Muye's narration, Su Tu's face grew increasingly somber.
"Chen Daowen, Wang Gao..."
"Good, very good!" Su Tu's voice was ice-cold, the killing intent in his eyes growing like rampant grass.
Just then, Zhang Muye's eyes regained color, fear rapidly filling his heart.
That sensation earlier was terrifying; his true spirit was ripped from his heart and spirit.
Unable to control his own body, he could only watch helplessly as his heart and spirit, his flesh became like a puppet, answering Su Tu's questions one word at a time.
That sense of helplessness, despair, is forever unfathomable to those who haven't experienced it.
Boom!!!
Crack!!
"Aaaahhhh!!!!" As his consciousness returned, intense pain emanated from Zhang Muye's arm.
His right forearm and upper arm joint were crushed by Su Tu's single hand.
The whole arm twisted grotesquely outward, waves of piercing pain continuously assailing him, intolerable.
But before his screams could end, the other arm was treated similarly by Su Tu.
"Su Tu!! I come from the Zhang Family!! Do you know what the Zhang Family represents!"
"The Zhang Family is one of the ten major families of Chenxuan Star, and Chenxuan Star is the closest New Star to Ancestor Star. If you spare me, I will recommend you to my family to become a Zhang Family associate, enjoying the same treatment as me!"
Crack~
With another crisp sound, Su Tu casually broke one of Zhang Muye's legs, the severe pain nearly causing him to faint.
"Even if you want to ruin Luo Fan." Su Tu said blandly, casually kicking out, Zhang Muye's other leg also broke along with the limb.
That once world-beater, rebellious prodigy, now, before Su Tu, all limbs broken, utterly disheveled..ended up..crippled!
"Su... Tu, think about it, you have grown to such a level on Ancestor Star, if my Zhang Family supported you with resources, in future, you would surely become a Celestial Venerable, perhaps even a Daoist Master!"
"Never, never let some mere mortal ruin your great prospects!!"
Zhang Muye's voice trembled with pain, lying on the ground, arms broken, his previously aloof, arrogant face smeared with dust, extremely wretched.
But now he had no time to vent the pain, because..he could feel, the Su Tu before him.. truly moved to kill!!
He threw out what he thought was the most enticing proposition, trying to persuade Su Tu to stop, yet what awaited him was a cold voice.
"You're right, the Training Camp has death quotas after all..."
As this sentence fell, Zhang Muye felt a chilling sensation rush from the soles of his feet to his skull.
"No! Don't! I had no intention to become your enemy, I was misled by Chen Daowen!"
"It's him! It was Chen Daowen targeting you, he even proposed a wager to hunt you."
"I was wrong, I truly was..."
Before he finished speaking, abruptly stopped, red and white splattered, like a ripe watermelon crashing to the ground, splattering juices everywhere.
"Confess your mistakes to King Yan, I'm only responsible for sending you to meet him."
Su Tu spoke softly.
Unexpectedly, because of him, his classmates suffered unjust disaster, while Chen Daowen and his cronies were seizing and harvesting points, they did not spare insults and defamation against Su Tu.
This was also why Luo Fan insisted on fighting them.
Ever since Luo Fan lost to Su Tu, he always felt deeply indebted to Su Tu, keeping quiet but silently watching anything related to Su Tu.
Men from a military background are just so.
And now, Zhang Muye not only severely injured Luo Fan but almost destroyed Luo Fan's martial arts cultivation. In the end, relying on the substantial ransom Mo Ya promised, he avoided disaster.
Zhang Muye won't die; how can his heart be at peace?
"Chen Daowen, Wang Gao..."
"Are you still betting on my head?"
"Interesting, then let me join this hunt too, I'll bet... your lives!!"
Su Tu stood at the mountain top, his gaze sweeping across, eyes icy cold to the extreme.
The crippled Xiong Laile, and those students who paid protection fees to me, regardless of their intentions, Su Tu wanted their lives!
[You completed a battle, Fighting Proficiency +100, Body Strengthening Proficiency +100]
[Fighting (High Tier): 1960/5000]
[Strengthen Body (High Tier): 2040/5000]
The system prompt appeared before Su Tu.
But he didn't care, his gaze just swept over the exotic beast he had slain, pausing slightly.
He knew too little about the Immortal Ruins.
This ruin served as the main battlefield for the training camp, where every student would eventually enter for training, naturally having a set of scoring systems to determine the so-called first place.
Young heirs like Zhang Muye, directly recommended to S-level, probably had been briefed in advance about the Immortal Ruins and the assessments.
It would have been better to squeeze out his last value before killing him...
Though saying that, Su Tu actually did not regret it. His actions followed his heart; if he hadn't killed Zhang Muye earlier, that would have truly contradicted his desires.
"Already, many students have entered the ruins, it doesn't hurt to wait a bit."
Thinking this way, Su Tu leaped to the front of the exotic beast and dragged it towards the depths of the mountain range.
For no other reason...
Su Tu was hungry....
Practicing the Eight-Nine Profound Skill and opening the Fourteen Celestial Acupoints, Su Tu now felt a severe depletion within his body. All the elixirs and nutrient liquids he exchanged for before entering the ruins were consumed completely.
Yet it only managed to replenish less than a third of his depletion.
The meat on this exotic beast looked plentiful; it might provide him with much-needed nutrition.
Finding an open space, Su Tu started a fire, and his culinary skill played a crucial role at this moment.
Using only the most primitive stone slab, Su Tu could roast the exotic beast's meat to a mouth-watering aroma.
The enticing smell constantly teased the appetite within Su Tu's belly, but with his intermediate culinary skill, he sensed that it wasn't yet the most delicious moment for the barbecue.
This exotic beast's meat was miraculous, needing no added seasonings, yet it felt as if nourished by countless spices, the more it roasted, the more fragrant it became.
Finally, a gleam of brilliance flashed in Su Tu's eyes; the time was now. He activated his True Qi to extinguish the flames.
With two fingers forming a sword, slicing down swiftly, large pieces of meat were cut into bite-sized portions.
Using tree branches, Su Tu fashioned a pair of simple chopsticks and ate a piece of meat.
The juices burst in his mouth, incredibly delicious, more importantly, the piece of meat in his stomach transformed into warm streams nourishing Su Tu's body.
"Hmm! Not bad!"
Indeed, the exotic beast within the Immortal Ruins was extraordinary; the nutrition contained within a single piece of meat was comparable to a high-level dietary supplement.
Su Tu ate the meat before him in large chunks, feeling the surge of blood and Qi within him, rapidly replenishing his depletion.
Shortly, only a few pieces of meat remained before him.
Gurgle~
At this moment, a strange sound echoed from the nearby forest.
Su Tu was familiar with the sound; the first time he completed Basic Skill, his belly growled even louder than that.
"I thought you could hold it a bit longer."
Su Tu put down the chopsticks, speaking lightly, his eyes fixed on a shadowy spot.
From the moment he started eating, he noticed someone in the woods, but since that person bore him no malice or hostility, just a series of calm heart and spirit fluctuations, Su Tu paid no heed but stayed vigilant.
He thought they would soon leave, but unexpectedly, this person watched him eat all along.
"Wow!! Brother, you knew I was here the whole time."
"Oh dear, had I known earlier, I wouldn't have hidden. Brother, let's negotiate, can I have what's left of that meat? It smells so good..."
A neutral voice sounded, followed by a ripple in the darkness, a youth in black clothing with a hood emerging from the shadows.
His footsteps were so light that even Su Tu's heightened senses couldn't detect the sound.
If not for Su Tu's heart and spirit level being higher than the other's, he wouldn't have discovered this person's presence.
At this moment, the youth's eyes were firmly fixed on the roasted meat before Su Tu.
"I won't eat it for free; I'll trade you for information."
As he spoke, his eyes stayed glued to the roast, with drool seeping from the corner of his mouth.
"What information, let's hear it first."
Su Tu wasn't in a hurry, using Qi to sweep a piece of roast meat towards the youth, who moved like a shadow, instantly grabbing the meat and stuffing it into his mouth eagerly.
As he chewed, his eyes lit up, as if tasting the most exquisite delicacy, reluctant to swallow, savoring it for quite some time.
Finally, giving Su Tu a thumbs-up, he said: "Brother, you are too generous!!"
"How did you make this exotic beast meat so fragrant, and it even has restorative effects, brother, are you a Food Supplement Master!"
The youth spoke enthusiastically, sitting across from Su Tu, attempting to grab another piece of roast meat.
Su Tu didn't respond, his fingers moving lightly, sending a Qi blast at the youth's hand, knocking away the meat he was about to grab.
Then he looked at the youth playfully.
The youth chuckled awkwardly, knowing Su Tu's meaning—you can't have the meat without information.
Then he cleared his throat and began sharing the information he knew.
