"It's just a pity he's so cold by nature, always keeping people at a distance—not our cup of tea," sighed a "Queen."

To them, Mu Yu was a man they could only look up to, untouchable.

"I wonder if he can defeat them two against one."

"Mu Yu is so powerful, he should be able to."

"We haven't seen each other for many days, and you have become so powerful, it seems the distance between us is getting even wider," sighed another "Queen," unable to help herself.

She was one of Mu Yu's pursuers and was in the same academic year as him.

Back in their first year of university, this untameable woman was deeply subdued by his indifferent nature.

Every time, Mu Yu defeated her, yet he was merciful, never injuring her, which made her fall even more deeply for him.

However, whenever she confessed her feelings to Mu Yu, she was always turned away.

Over time, she felt that only an outstanding woman could attract Mu Yu; hence, she pushed herself hard, striving to surpass him in cultivation.

Yet, as time went on, she found herself slowly being outpaced by Mu Yu, and now, he had even advanced a whole Realm beyond her, which left her feeling helpless.

Meanwhile, the female spectators and classmates at the scene were screaming continuously. They all cheered for Mu Yu, hoping he would win.

Mu Yu had always been their knight in shining armor; seeing him fight brazenly today, they were utterly smitten and couldn't extricate themselves.

"Mu Yu, you can do it!"

"Mu Yu, you can do it!"

The momentum was massive and overwhelming, yet it was of no use.

In the beginning, Mu Yu was able to cope with two cultivators at the Peak of the Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm, but gradually, he found himself at a disadvantage.

Ultimately, it was because his Realm was too low, his grasp on advanced Martial Arts wasn't perfect enough.

"Ah! Is it time to leave?" Mu Yu sighed inwardly.

The experiment's result had come forth, and that was that he couldn't fight above his level for long; hence, he was considering whether to retreat.

On the other side, Zhao Hong let out a deep sigh of relief.

Just now, he thought that his two followers were no match for Mu Yu, thankfully they managed to overpower him.

"Let's see how long you can hold on!"

Zhao Hong's gaze was icy cold, utterly ruthless.

In his hand, he hid a poison dart, ready to be thrown at any moment should Mu Yu lower his guard or expose any flaw.

The situation on the field was gradually turning against Mu Yu, making everyone worry for him.

On the other side, Lin Yifei had skipped class.

When she heard that Zhao Hong had come looking for Mu Yu, she was very concerned about his safety.

After all, it was because of her that Mu Yu had provoked Zhao Hong.

Arriving at the basketball court and seeing Mu Yu at a disadvantage, she grew even more worried and anxious.

"What should I do?"

She was extremely agitated, unsure of what to do.

Just then, a poison dart flew swiftly through the air, heading straight for Mu Yu who was in the midst of battle.

Because of the dart's extremely high speed, hardly anyone noticed it, except for those villainous young masters, powerful "Queens."

However, by the time these people became aware of the poison dart's existence, it was already nearing Mu Yu.

"Be careful!"

The "Queen" who secretly loved Mu Yu exclaimed, wanting to intercept the black poison dart.

But she knew she was already too late.

Hearing her warning, Mu Yu, who was fighting with two Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm Peak cultivators, realized the danger. But it was too late, the poison dart pierced his shoulder, quickly transmitting the poison into his body.

In an instant, his limbs grew icy and numb.

"Damn! Scoundrel!"

Mu Yu was furious, constantly on guard, yet unable to guard against this Zhao scoundrel, Zhao Hong.

"Hehe! No matter how powerful you are, you cannot withstand my poison!" Zhao Hong sneered, not at all provoked by Mu Yu's words.

In his eyes, only the victor gets to live and laugh last; to win, he would resort to any means necessary.

"If you dare kill me, your Zhao Family will be waiting for annihilation!" Mu Yu threatened, his final threat.

He hoped the threat would have some effect, otherwise his illustrious life might truly be ruined.

"Yo yo yo! Scaring who? Even if our Zhao Family is annihilated, we will drag your Mu Family down with us!" Zhao Hong harshly replied, unshaken by Mu Yu's threat.

The Zhao and Mu Families were both major clans of the Capital City, with equally matched strengths. A real fight between them would benefit nobody.

However, whether the Zhao Family would truly start a feud between the two families over him, he wasn't very sure. After all, the Zhao Family was not solely governed by his father; it depended on the opinions of the Great Elders and the forces behind them before a final decision could be made.

Therefore, this poison dart was not meant to kill Mu Yu outright but merely to cripple his meridians, preventing him from cultivation ever again.

"Despicable and shameless scoundrel!" Mu Yu roared in anger, then collapsed helplessly onto the ground, clutching his chest, enduring the agony within his body.

Seeing this, the "Queen" who secretly loved Mu Yu was the first to fly into the basketball court to stop Zhao Hong's men from harming Mu Yu further.

"Stop!"

"Oh! Song Huaiyu, you want to intervene too?" Zhao Hong asked with a cold laugh.

Song Huaiyu was the beloved youngest daughter of the Family Head of the Song Family in the Capital City; thus, she had an extraordinary background.

Besides, she was also famously known as a diligent cultivator, although her talent was not high, making her advancement very slow.

Despite this, she had reached the Breaking Mortal Fourth Realm, the same as Zhao Hong. However, if Zhao Hong were to fight her, he might not necessarily be her match.

Because she mastered many Martial Arts, which were versatile and adaptable, unlike Zhao Hong, who mastered few, he might indeed not be a match for her.

"Aren't you afraid of endless retaliation from the Mu Family by treating Mu Yu this way?" Song Huaiyu inquired.

"So what if I die? What's the big deal? Moreover, I tell you, I've tolerated that bastard for a long time. Today, no matter what, I must trample him down and let him taste the humiliation of being oppressed by others. So, whoever tries to stop me, I will kill!" Zhao Hong replied.

"Then you'll have to step over my dead body first!" Song Huaiyu responded, adjusting herself into a combat stance, ready to face the attack from Zhao Hong's followers.

"Since you're seeking death, don't blame me for being ruthless." Having said this, Zhao Hong immediately ordered his two subordinates to attack Song Huaiyu.

The two followers, upon receiving the orders, immediately launched an attack on Song Huaiyu.

At this moment, Mu Yu cried out in pain, "Run! Don't make a needless sacrifice, you're no match for them!"

However, Song Huaiyu, prepared to face death, did not heed his advice.

Thus, the next moment, Song Huaiyu was struck down with a blow, utterly powerless to retaliate.

A cultivator of Breaking Mortal Fourth Realm, how could she be a match for cultivators of Breaking Mortal Fifth Realm Peak? She was simply blown away with a single strike.

"Bang!"

Eventually, Song Huaiyu hit the protective netting around the basketball court, suffering several minor injuries.
