Bonus Chapter. Enjoy!
============================
Tang Wulin had already been Cultivating the Tang Sect's Purple Demon Eye for several years. This eye technique is one of the Tang Sect's ultimate arts; when Cultivated to an advanced stage, it can see through illusions, perceive the smallest details, and even launch spiritual attacks.
Tang Wulin's persistent, arduous Cultivation over the past few years had allowed his Purple Demon Eye to achieve some measure of success.
Having been frequently "tortured and killed" by Huo Yuhao's mental force, Tang Wulin had naturally long since realized how "useful" spiritual attacks were in battle. Those silent, invisible, and unpredictable Spiritual Impacts could often turn the tide of battle at critical moments.
At this moment, using this move proved immediately effective.
Xu Yucheng's Spirit Ability was interrupted, and the rhythm of the battle was seized by Tang Wulin. The Clear Sky Hammer's first spirit ring flared with purple light, and the Clear Sky Hammer in Tang Wulin's hands suddenly grew significantly larger.
Tang Wulin's first Spirit Ability was called "Lifting Heavy as if Light." Its effect was simple: it could increase the weight of the Clear Sky Hammer by consuming Spirit Power.
Furthermore, no matter how heavy the Clear Sky Hammer in his hands became, he could still wield it with ease.
Under the effect of the Spirit Ability, the Clear Sky Hammer in Tang Wulin's hands now weighed a thousand catties. The pitch-black hammerhead and the thick hammer body glinted with a heavy luster under the sunlight. A single strike from this would carry at least ten thousand catties of force!
Xu Yucheng quickly recovered from Tang Wulin's Spiritual Impact. The stinging pain came and went quickly, resulting in only a brief moment of daze. But that single moment was enough to change the course of the battle.
He opened his eyes, and as his pupils refocused, he saw the opponent's massive hammer already swinging toward him. The pitch-black hammerhead carried the sound of whistling wind, pressing down like a small mountain.
He had no time to dodge and could only hold the Dark Demon Scythe horizontally in front of him, using the blade's body to block the hammer strike.
*Bang!*
The two Spirits collided, producing a deafening roar.
Xu Yucheng felt as if he had been struck by a rapidly charging Spirit Beast. The massive force surged like an overwhelming wave, traveling through the Dark Demon Scythe into his arms, numbing the webs of his thumbs.
His hands gripping the Dark Demon Scythe trembled violently, veins bulging on the backs of his hands; he almost failed to keep hold of his Spirit.
Under the immense force of Tang Wulin's strike, Xu Yucheng's feet plowed two deep furrows into the ground, and he was blasted back dozens of meters before stabilizing himself.
He gasped for air as the massive force continued to echo within him, causing his internal organs to churn.
*Pfft!*
In the end, Xu Yucheng couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. The blood traced an arc through the air and fell onto the soil beneath his feet, a shocking sight.
Shock finally flashed through the eyes of the usually expressionless youth, impossible to hide.
He looked down at the Spirit in his hand; cracks had actually appeared on the Dark Demon Scythe from that one hammer strike!
Tang Wulin gave Xu Yucheng no chance to catch his breath. Gripping the hammer with both hands, he moved with the weapon, crossing dozens of meters in an instant to bring the hammer down once more.
The Clear Sky Hammer felt like nothing in his hands as he swung it with a fierce wind, carrying ten thousand catties of force as it whistled toward Xu Yucheng with an unstoppable, rainbow-like aura.
Having barely survived one of Tang Wulin's strikes with significant injuries and a cracked Spirit, how could Xu Yucheng dare to face it head-on again?
With a shift of his feet, he threw himself to the side, narrowly dodging the blow.
Immediately after, he hurriedly activated his second Spirit Ability, Dark Demon Stealth, as grey air currents enveloped his body. His figure merged into the shadows, vanishing from the spot instantly in an attempt to put distance between himself and Tang Wulin.
In the training hall, everyone's eyes were glued to the large screen. They could clearly see the duel between Tang Wulin and Xu Yucheng.
At this moment, almost everyone was staring at Tang Wulin in stunned silence, because he was actually suppressing the "Undying" Xu Yucheng from the Young Genius List.
They had originally thought Huo Yuhao was the biggest "exception," but they hadn't expected another Tang Wulin to suddenly emerge.
His Spirit Power cultivation wasn't much higher than theirs; while decent among the first-year freshmen, it wasn't considered top-tier.
Yet his actual combat strength was something they couldn't even hope to reach!
Fighting above one's level was never easy, especially when the opponent was no ordinary person.
A hint of surprise also appeared on Shen Yi's face, and a trace of contemplation flashed through her clear eyes.
She then turned to her Senior Brother Wu Changkong beside her and asked in a low voice, "Is he a descendant of the Clear Sky Sect?"
As a teacher of Shrek Academy, Shen Yi naturally recognized the Clear Sky Hammer.
Wu Changkong said calmly, "Where is there a Clear Sky Sect anymore? But looking at his Spirit, he is undoubtedly of the Clear Sky Sect Bloodline."
Shen Yi withdrew her gaze and stared at the screen, sighing softly. "The Clear Sky Hammer combined with the Tang Sect's Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method... Xu Yucheng's loss is not underserved."
Although the Clear Sky Sect had declined, no one doubted the power of the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit; it was a Tool Spirit that had once stood at the Peak of the continent.
And the Tang Sect's Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method was a combat technique specifically tailored for the Clear Sky Hammer, where each strike borrowed the force of the previous one, growing stronger with every blow in an endless, unstoppable flow.
During the break, Wu Changkong had not only helped Tang Wulin obtain a Spirit Soul for his Clear Sky Hammer Spirit but also had him learn the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method from the Tang Sect.
Xu Yucheng's second Spirit Ability, Dark Demon Stealth, had a major weakness: its duration was too short.
Merging into the shadows could only be maintained for a period of time, after which he had to reappear, and that would be Tang Wulin's opportunity.
After several bouts of stealth, he was eventually caught by Tang Wulin.
Ultimately, when Xu Yucheng had nowhere left to hide, he could only hold the Dark Demon Scythe across his body again in an attempt to block Tang Wulin's attack.
But under this hammer strike, Xu Yucheng's end was a shattered Spirit and instant death on the spot!
The black scythe transformed into countless fragments under the impact of the Clear Sky Hammer, flying in all directions.
And Xu Yucheng's body was sent flying by that massive force, slamming heavily onto the ground, devoid of any breath.
His figure then dissipated as the training ground judged him to be dead.
Tang Wulin put away the Clear Sky Hammer and stood in place, his chest heaving slightly and his breathing somewhat ragged. Executing the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method just now had consumed a significant amount of his Spirit Power and physical strength.
His gaze slowly swept across the faces of the few remaining Students; his eyes were calm and his expression normal, showing no ferocity or overbearing aura.
However, the scene of him crushing Xu Yucheng to death with a single hammer blow still echoed in everyone's minds; they lowered their heads one after another, not daring to meet Tang Wulin's eyes.
"Not bad!" Na'er walked to Tang Wulin's side at this moment, her silver eyes full of smiles.
She reached out and patted Tang Wulin's shoulder; the force was neither heavy nor light, yet it made Tang Wulin's shoulder sink slightly. "How about it? Do you want to have another match with me?"
Tang Wulin hurriedly waved his hands. "No! No! You should be the Class Monitor, Na'er. I'm not interested."
He knew how "brutal" Na'er could be; having fused with his Dragon Clan Bloodline, Na'er's strength had long since surpassed the human realm. Even having Awakened the Clear Sky Hammer, he didn't dare to clash head-on with her.
Na'er nodded with satisfaction, her silver ponytail swaying gently behind her. She turned around to look at the remaining few people and asked with a slight tilt of her chin, "What about you? Do any of you want to challenge me?"
Although these remaining people hadn't seen Na'er take action and didn't know how strong she truly was, since even Tang Wulin didn't dare to compete with her, they naturally dared even less.
No one spoke; they simply reached out silently and pressed the buttons in their hands.
After several flashes of white light, their figures vanished from everyone's sight, clearly giving up on the competition for Class Monitor.
