Chapter 10

**Pang!**

Another kick, Wang Xu showed no mercy, striking Xu Yuan's leg and sending him flying. The left leg bone shattered, and he was probably in no better condition than Song Zhen.

Seeing this scene, the students were speechless. Wang Xu's formidable strength and ruthless methods had instilled fear in their hearts.

"Ha ha ha..." Xu Yuan, with broken teeth and blood spilling from his mouth, laughed maniacally.

Even injured to this extent, he could still laugh? Everyone was shocked.

"Wang Xu, if you have the guts, kill me. Otherwise, once I get out, I will throw you, your parents, and all your relatives into the abyss, making them suffer hellish torment!" Xu Yuan's voice was icy cold, like a devil crawling out of the abyss, filled with brutality.

"I will torture you and your parents, making you wish you were dead but unable to die!" Xu Yuan laughed maniacally.

Wang Xu's face gradually turned cold, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Xu Yuan was the type who would seek revenge for the slightest offense, and Wang Xu knew this all too well. If he didn't kill him today, there would be endless trouble once he got out!

Wang Xu suddenly realized that he had originally thought that becoming an elite student and moving his family to the protected area would ensure their safety, but it wasn't that simple!

If Xu Yuan wanted to target him, he had a hundred ways to do it. The protected area might be off-limits, but his parents couldn't stay there forever. As soon as an opportunity arose, the result would be...

Wang Xu didn't dare to think about it, his gaze fiercely fixed on Xu Yuan.

"You've reminded me... If you don't die, I will never have peace." Wang Xu's voice was devoid of any warmth, filled with murderous intent.

Xu Yuan's manic expression froze. He saw the murderous intent in Wang Xu's eyes... No, that couldn't be possible. The academy had clearly stipulated that students could not kill each other, or they would face the death penalty.

"If I die, you won't have it easy either. The academy won't let you off, and my father won't let you off either. My family is one of the major families in the safe zone. If I die, you..." Xu Yuan was panicking. He didn't want to die. Threatening Wang Xu was just to make him back off, but now Wang Xu's expression showed no intention of letting him go.

"I am a fourth-stage, and you are a third-stage. Do you think the academy will protect you?" Wang Xu interrupted Xu Yuan, speaking coldly.

Xu Yuan's face turned pale, his mouth trembling. "You can't kill me. My father will kill you, he will definitely!"

Even now, Xu Yuan refused to beg for mercy. He still believed that Wang Xu feared the power behind him, thinking Wang Xu wouldn't dare to act... Unfortunately, Wang Xu was no longer the same Wang Xu.

Wang Xu had no more patience. The time for spatial teleportation was approaching. If he waited until they returned to the academy, it would be like releasing a tiger back into the wild.

"Wang Xu, the academy is fully aware of everything that happens here. If you act, the consequences will be unpredictable!" Tang Yan saw Wang Xu take a step forward, about to kill Xu Yuan, and quickly stepped in to speak.

Her meaning was clear. If the academy didn't see this, it would be fine, but if everything was seen and recorded, Wang Xu would face the death penalty!

Song Zhen also wanted to persuade Wang Xu, but Wang Xu raised his hand, signaling them to stop.

"Whatever the consequences, I will take full responsibility." As he spoke, a long sword suddenly appeared in Wang Xu's hand.

"No! No! No! Don't kill me, please, don't kill me!" Xu Yuan's eyes were filled with fear. He was truly afraid. Wang Xu was really going to kill him, not joking!

In the face of life and death, all pride and background were meaningless. None of it could save his life.

"Drip!" Suddenly, a mechanical sound came, and the spatial teleportation began!

Xu Yuan's pale face suddenly showed a look of wild joy. This sound was like the most beautiful music he had ever heard in his life. He would live!

The air began to distort, and the surroundings started to change. The spatial teleportation was about to begin!

Wang Xu's face changed, and he immediately swung his long sword without hesitation, drawing a perfect arc. In the blink of an eye, the spatial teleportation began.

"Swish!"

"Swish!"

Bright light flashed, and some students had already entered the spatial orbit.

"Puff!" Xu Yuan's body glowed, a sign that he was about to enter the spatial orbit. Joy filled his face, but in an instant, his expression froze. A jet of blood spurted from his neck, and his eyes dimmed.

He was dead. Xu Yuan, a spoiled and evil person, ultimately couldn't escape his fate.

Wang Xu's sword swing didn't clearly hit Xu Yuan, but a severe dizziness hit his head. He quickly sheathed his sword, closed his eyes, and after a few seconds, the dizziness subsided, and he opened his eyes again.

"Ahh—" A scream came, and Wang Xu looked over, feeling a great relief.

Xu Yuan was dead, his neck almost completely severed, blood covering the ground, and his breath completely gone.

"Wang Xu!" A roar came, and Cui Badao punched over!

The power of a sixth-stage fully erupted. Before Wang Xu could react, he was sent flying.

"Rule two of the trial: students are not allowed to kill each other. I've said this countless times. Didn't you hear me?!" Cui Badao grabbed Wang Xu by the collar, lifting him up, his voice filled with anger and murderous intent.

Wang Xu remained silent. He had no choice. If Xu Yuan lived, his family would suffer. If Xu Yuan died, he might die too, but that didn't matter. Wang Xu was taking a gamble, betting on being a fourth-stage elite warrior, betting on surviving!

Song Zhen and Tang Yan watched, worried. Wang Xu had committed a major taboo in the trial. According to the rules, he could be executed on the spot.

The other three coaches looked at the enraged Cui Badao, shaking their heads. He Shi secretly smiled, thinking another obstacle was gone.

"Alright, alright, put him down. You don't have the authority to deal with him." Suddenly, an elderly voice came, and everyone was surprised to see an old man with white hair approaching.

The old man was spirited, wearing a white robe and leaning on a purple cane, looking frail, but no one on the scene thought so.

"President!" The students and coaches all bowed respectfully.

"President, this beast killed a student. I must execute him!" Cui Badao refused to let go of Wang Xu.

"Alright, Coach Cui, stop protecting him. He is now a fourth-stage elite warrior. Even if he is to be executed, it's not your place." The president smiled and waved his hand, saying.

Cui Badao hesitated for a moment before letting Wang Xu go.

The coaches looked at the president, all somewhat surprised.

The president usually didn't involve himself in external affairs. The outer academy of the Genetic Academy was managed by the coaches. The president only intervened in major events. This was just a regular trial, so why did it involve the president?

Moreover, their gazes swept over Wang Xu. His fourth-stage strength was clearly visible on the surveillance screen. Taking on five third-stage warriors at once and instantly defeating them showed that Wang Xu had indeed reached the fourth stage.

To have fourth-stage strength at eighteen, Wang Xu was indeed a genius.

"Alright, coaches, take care of the points. Wang Xu, come with me." The president said, walking ahead. Wang Xu handed over all the insect beast corpses in his spatial ring to the coaches and hurriedly followed.

"Although Cui is cold, he cares about the students." The president said.

Wang Xu remained silent. When the president said Cui Badao was protecting him, he had already understood.

He had killed a student and deserved the death penalty. Any coach could have acted, but Cui Badao was the first to control Wang Xu, preventing the others from acting.

"Your talent surprises me." The president glanced at Wang Xu. "I've read all your records. Your talent, though not a genius, is still excellent. But reaching the fourth stage was still a distance away. I didn't expect you to advance in this trial. Well done, well done."

Wang Xu knew that if he relied solely on his talent, it would take another two years to reach the fourth stage. His advancement was all thanks to the mysterious flame.

"Come in." After walking for a while, they arrived at a tall building. The president opened a room and walked in.

The room had a classical style. Wang Xu remembered that this style was described in history books, but that was fifty years ago, before the insect disaster.

"Before the insect disaster, I was a minor official. After the disaster, I survived countless bloody battles... but I can never forget those days." The president's eyes were filled with memories.

An official before the insect disaster? He must have been around thirty then. Adding fifty years, the president didn't look like he was eighty! Wang Xu was secretly surprised.

"Do you know why I asked you here?" The president suddenly said.

"Please enlighten me, President." Wang Xu said.

"Your talent is good. In the graduation trial in six months, you should be able to enter the 'Genius Battle Team.' I am here to recruit you." The president said.

Recruit?!

Seeing Wang Xu's puzzled face, the president continued, "The Genius Battle Team has many geniuses, and many forces want to recruit them. The most powerful forces are three."

"First, the military, represented by the world government. They can offer you great power and cultivation resources, and the ability to mobilize military forces at any time."

"Second, the Free Battlefield, represented by the Free Alliance. They can offer you vast cultivation resources and support from alliance warriors everywhere."

"Third, the Extreme Ancient Hall, represented by the world's strongest, 'Luo.'"

"I am a member of the Extreme Ancient Hall, so I sincerely invite you to join the Extreme Ancient Hall." The president looked at Wang Xu and said.
