Chapter 889: I'm Breaking All Your Arms Today

The academy's overseers were all one-in-ten-thousand experts. They were not all disciples from previous batches, as some were actually the followers the elders had recruited during their trips outside.

These four were recruited as followers by Elder Shadowflash and were able to enter the academy as overseers. But like Xiang Shaoyun, they were merely regular overseers. Sure, they still had above-average strength, but they definitely weren't as strong as the geniuses that could actually fight people several stages above them.

The second-stage Sovereign facing Xiang Shaoyun was a mid second-stage Sovereign, but he could display the strength of a peak second-stage. That was actually quite impressive among cultivators.

Earlier, he had failed to capture Xiang Shaoyun, so he was using 80 percent of his strength now. He vowed to take Xiang Shaoyun down this time. He knew well that a genius like Xiang Shaoyun definitely had the strength to contend against a Sovereign. But he was still confident he could easily capture this Emperor.

Alas, he overestimated himself and underestimated Xiang Shaoyun. Rather than capturing Xiang Shaoyun, he gave Xiang Shaoyun a chance to counterattack. The moment Xiang Shaoyun attacked, he used his full strength, sending out numerous terrifying flaming palms. A sea of flame crashed forth toward the second-stage Sovereign.

The flaming palms were powered by the profundity of flame. Thus, the barrage was extremely scary, and even a mountain would turn into a pile of ash once hit. The second-stage Sovereign was no weakling. He reacted quickly and sent out several palms himself, trying to stop Xiang Shaoyun's attacks.

The second-stage Sovereign wasn't to be underestimated. Although Xiang Shaoyun had an impressive technique, his attacks were blocked.

"So what if you're a genius? So long as you're not a Sovereign, you're nothing!" said the Sovereign smugly. He unleashed a series of attacks toward Xiang Shaoyun, aiming to capture Xiang Shaoyun before doing anything else.

Xiang Shaoyun's eyes gleamed with a sharp glint. Instantly, his figure vanished, causing the Sovereign's attacks to hit only his afterimage.

"Shit!" the Sovereign immediately sensed that things were getting bad for him.

He immediately entered a defensive mode, but Xiang Shaoyun had already appeared beside him and attacked mercilessly.

Dragonscale Arm!

Both his arms lashed out like a pair of dragons. The arms shone with a brilliant gold radiance, exuding thick vicious energy. Dragon roars rumbled on and on as his arms smashed into the Sovereign's waist.

The Sovereign was able to put up his defenses quick enough, but his defensive barrier was smashed apart by the Dragonscale Arm technique. He himself was sent flying away, blood spewing out of his mouth.

"Impudent!" the other three Sovereigns shouted in alarm. They were now attacking together.

The three Sovereigns weren't to be underestimated either. One of them was even at the fourth stage, while the other two were at the second and third stages respectively. If they worked together against Xiang Shaoyun, he would only stand a chance if he used the Nether Soul Domain.

However, Xiang Shaoyun was not ready to use the Nether Soul Domain yet. He wanted to defeat his opponents fair and square in order to establish some dominance and deter some of those who kept setting their sights on him.

The Radiant Saint Sword appeared in his hand, and a sinister look covered his face as he roared, "Whoever your master is, since you dare to make a move against me, I'm breaking all your arms today. Otherwise, you will all think I'm a pushover!"

Not waiting for the Sovereigns to use their soul foundations, Xiang Shaoyun pushed his speed to the maximum. A white flash streaked over as he swung his sword repeatedly.

Dazzling Sky Sword Technique, third stance, Sword Light and Blood Shadow!

Xiang Shaoyun fully unleashed his light star, sending out a torrent of bright radiance with each swing of his sword as he slashed at the Sovereigns. Instantly, the torrential light streaked past them.

They had not expected Xiang Shaoyun to have a saint weapon, and they also hadn't expected him to use full power at the get-go. His speed was so fast they couldn't even react. Only the fourth-stage Sovereign was able to quickly move aside. As for the other Sovereigns, a sharp pain assaulted their arms as two bloody arms flew into the sky.

"Ahhhh!"

Their wails reverberated throughout the area, attracting even more attention.

"How is this possible?" the fourth-stage Sovereign paled from fright. He was filled with disbelief. The second-stage Sovereign who was facing Xiang Shaoyun earlier also felt a chill creep up his spine. He was feeling lucky that Xiang Shaoyun had not used such a scary technique on him earlier, or he would have definitely been killed on the spot.

"Quick, quick, suppress him with your soul foundation!" shouted one of the injured Sovereign to the fourth-stage Sovereign.

Xiang Shaoyun looked at the one-armed Sovereign and said, "Keep talking and I'll behead you." He pointed at the fourth-stage Sovereign and said, "Go back and tell your master to feel free to inform the academy of whatever crime I have committed. The academy can punish me. As for your master, he is not qualified to capture me as he wishes."

This whole incident had come out of nowhere for Xiang Shaoyun. He didn't even know who Elder Shadowflash was, but this person had actually come after him out of the blue. He couldn't just take it lying.

"Kid, you have devil blood in you. You're not a human, so you can't cultivate in the academy. Come with me to see Elder Shadowflash and await your punishment, or today is the day you die!" shouted the fourth-stage Sovereign as he released all four of his soul foundations, sending a crushing pressure toward Xiang Shaoyun.

"Hmph. Even if I really have devil blood, the likes of you are unqualified to judge me. If you want my life, come get it. Let's see who will die first," replied Xiang Shaoyun unyieldingly, exuding a thick killing intent.

Just as they were about to clash, the enforcers arrived. The group's leader was none other than Chu Yuan, a disciple of Xiao Wei. There were five behind him, and each was a late-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator. They were far stronger than the group of four overseers.

"You dare use force within the academy? Impudent!" berated Chu Yuan as he pointed at the four Sovereigns.

Chu Yuan was a high-level overseer, and his status in the academy was far above the four Sovereigns. Furthermore, as the captain of the enforcers, he had the strength to back his arrogance.

The four Sovereigns quickly replied, "We are here on orders of Elder Shadowflash. We need to arrest Xiang Shaoyun. He is a devil from the Imperial Nether Clan!"

"That's the truth just because Elder Shadowflash says so? The academy has yet to give the enforcers any orders, yet you people are already acting in private? You are simply looking down on the enforcers! All of you, come with me! Let's talk about this in front of the principal. Let's see who's at fault here!" said Chu Yuan. He was obviously siding with Xiang Shaoyun.

Xiang Shaoyun hurriedly added, "Lord enforcer, you have arrived just in time! They are obviously trying to assassinate me! If it wasn't for the fact that I have a tiny bit of strength I can use to protect myself, I would be dead by now. They are simply disregarding the academy's rules! Lord, please uphold justice!"

One ought to admit that Xiang Shaoyun was truly shameless. He had obviously gotten the upper hand in the clash, but he was not satisfied and was even adding salt to the wound.
