Chapter One: The Fight Begins

  The Spiritual Academy is located in the suburbs of the Feathered Empire, with a long history and has cultivated generations of talents. The academy is divided into two major departments: the Literary Department and the Martial Department. At the same time, it is also divided into primary classes and advanced classes, with primary classes ranging from 6 to 12 years old and advanced classes ranging from 12 to 20 years old.

  Today is the written test for the junior class of Wenbu, and only graduates of the junior class can participate. The Flying Feather Dynasty rules with martial arts, but what it wants is not a pure martial artist.

  In the examination hall, a handsome young man with clear eyebrows and eyes calmly answered the questions on the exam paper. The entire examination hall was filled with beautifully dressed boys and girls, but this young man alone wore simple clothes.

  He was called Shangguan Yu, the third son of Shangguan Jinghong, the Left General of the Feiyu Dynasty. Unable to cultivate martial arts since childhood, he was called "Useless Feather" by busybodies.

  "Shangguan Yu, hand over your exam paper and let's exchange!" A young man in fancy clothes kicked Shangguan Yu from behind.

  Shangguan Yu didn't even turn his head back, he knew the one who kicked him must be Wu Ziming. The Shangguan and Wu families had always been at odds with each other, Shangguan Xinghong was the Left General, while Wu Chongxiu was the Right General. The two men looked at each other with disdain, neither of them willing to submit to the other.

  "The graduation thesis is no joke and cannot be cheated!"

  "Alright, Ou Yang Fei, you just wait for me. Once the exam is over, you're done!" Wu Ziming had one hand gripping his pen and the other clenched into a fist, fiercely waiting for Ou Yang Fei.

  Wu Zi Ming gritted his teeth and looked unwell. At this time, Shang Guan Yu glanced at his own test paper and suddenly turned around.

  "Alright, let's go out now!" said Shangguan Yu with a smile all over her face, but to Wuzi Ming, it was the devil's smile.

  Because...

  "Shangguan Yu, Wu Ziming, the written test is not allowed to be done in collaboration! Considering how hard it was for you to study, I'm punishing you by having you hand in your papers now! Immediately, right away, get out!"

  Wang Tong, the Minister of Education and Examination, was also the teacher who taught Shangguan Fei and others. He was a respected elder with a head full of white hair combed neatly, his clothes spotless without a single wrinkle. He was a man of integrity, not fawning on those in power, doing things meticulously.

  Shangguan Xinghong and Wu Chongxiao, with their immense power and influence, each commanding a million-strong army. Shangguan Yu and Wu Ziming, naturally couldn't be easily offended. The other examiners saw them cheating but turned a blind eye. Only Wang Tong showed no fear, and even drove them out.

  Shangguan Yu calmly walked out of the door, with a faint smile still on his face.

  He didn't notice a young man's cold smile in the examination hall. This young man was none other than Shangguan Jinghong's second son, Shangguan Jiancheng.

  Wu Ziming was furious and was caught by Wang Tong, he could only be forced to leave the examination room. If not for Shangguan Yu's intentional actions, he would not have been driven out of the examination room.

  "Fei wu yu, don't go! Let's head to the martial arts arena!" Wu Ziming shouted as soon as he stepped out of the door, towards Shangguan Yu not far away.

  "It's all natural accompaniment, I don't know who is more useless, every time I have to ask the guards for help!"

  "You...! Hmph, now I've cultivated to the peak of Human Extreme Realm, not something a waste like you can compare to! You can't even cultivate martial arts, forever unable to experience the wonder of Heaven and Earth's Primordial Qi!" Wu Ziming sneered with pride. The two sons of the Upper Official, Upper Official Jing Cheng, he couldn't beat, but bullying this waste was still possible.

  Shangguan Yu didn't say much more and strode towards the martial arts arena of the academy. Wuzi Ming also hurried to catch up, both of them being very familiar with the arena.

  At this time, the armory of the college was not open, so they could only fight with their bare hands.

  A gust of wind blew by, dust flew everywhere, and the two looked at each other.

  Wu Ziming sneered, he didn't think that Shangguan Yu would be his opponent at all.

  The two had been fond of fighting since childhood, but Wuzi Ming was always beaten by Shangguan Yu. Shangguan Yu had an astonishing amount of strength since childhood, far surpassing his peers. Before Wuzi Ming cultivated to the Human Extreme realm, how could he be a match for Shangguan Yu?

  Today, Shangguan Yu is on one hand harming him, and on the other hand, he has also reached the pinnacle of human cultivation, his confidence surging, wanting to avenge his past humiliation.

  He didn't think that if he hadn't threatened Shangguan Yu, how would Shangguan Yu have treated him like this? Shangguan Yu wasn't someone who would suffer losses, and the two had been enemies all along.

  Wu Ziming threw a punch at Shangguan Yu, nothing fancy, just a straightforward attack. Shangguan Yu dodged to the side and waited for Wu Ziming to charge over before throwing a punch at his waist. Wu Ziming turned around and countered with both fists against Shangguan Yu.

  The two exchanged a blow, but Wuzi Ming retreated several steps. This was unthinkable to him - as someone at the pinnacle of martial arts, he was actually no match for Shangguan Yu, who couldn't even cultivate.

  "Behold my family's ultimate technique, shaking the mountains and rivers!" Wuzi Ming rotated his primordial energy, concentrating all his strength into his fists. This was not just one punch, but a series of three consecutive punches, each more powerful than the last.

  Shangguan Yu lowered his body, sweeping one leg out. Wuzi Ming leapt back onto his horse. This brief delay caused Wuzi Ming to lose the initiative, and three consecutive punches only managed to land one punch.

  Shangguan Yu was undaunted, his strength surging through both arms. "Watch me break your clan's ultimate technique, Wu Dong Shan He!"

  Shangguan Yu is also big-mouthed, how can this be called Wu Dong Shan He? Not to mention mountains and rivers, even a large tree may not be moved by martial arts.

  Bang

  This time there were two loud noises, and both Shangguan Yu and Wu Ziming fell to the ground.

  The two basically didn't know any martial arts skills, purely just hooligan fighting. They were just a bit more ruthless than the hooligans and had much better physical quality.

  Shangguan Yu and Mouzi Ming quickly stood up, and the two rushed together again. At this moment, there was no martial arts move, only a punch from you and a kick from me.

  "Fei Wu Yu, don't be so smug! Once I break through to the Soldier Extreme Boundary, I'll definitely beat you up so badly that you won't be able to get out of bed for half a year! At that time, let's see how you can fight me!"

  Wu Ziming was originally a bit inferior to Shangguan Yu, and after a long fight, his primordial energy was exhausted, making him even less of an opponent for Shangguan Yu.

  In the martial arts arena, only Shangguan Yu was left to bully Wu Zixu Ming.

  "I say, stop hitting me, okay? I give up!"

  Wu Ziming was furious with Shangguan Yu in his heart, but as a person under someone else's roof, he had to bow his head.

  "Alright, today's lesson ends here, dare you shout again in the future?"

  "I don't dare, I don't dare..."

  Shangguan Yu also didn't plan on continuing to argue with Wu Ziming, what's the point of arguing with a twelve-year-old kid.

  At this time, four guards from the Wu family rushed over.

  "Young master, we servants have arrived late!"

  A guard kicked at Shangguan Yu, who had been fighting for so long that he was already exhausted. This kick seemed to have cut off all of Shangguan Yu's escape routes. If he were in top condition, Shangguan Yu would have had a certain chance of dodging it, but now...

  Bang

  Shangguan Yu was kicked two zhang away.

  "Hmph" Guan Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, but he didn't fear that guard.

  Wu Ziming was held in the arms of another guard and fed a healing pill. His complexion improved significantly, but his eyes were very vicious.

  "Help me teach this trash a lesson, go! If anything happens, I'll take responsibility!"

  The four samurai guards rushed towards Uemura Ume without saying a word.

  All four guards were at the extreme limit of their martial arts, and it was not something that Shangguan Yu could contend with at present. How could he possibly handle all four of them simultaneously while in a state of exhaustion?

  Four guards, with one punch and one kick, all mobilized the yuanqi inside their bodies. Shangguan Yu was like a fallen leaf in the wind and rain, drifting with the wind, and being battered by the raindrops.

  These four guards were also extremely vicious. They specifically targeted the most painful parts of the human body, but somehow managed to avoid being fatal. Upper Official Yu was beaten until he was grimacing in pain, but his life was never in danger.

  These four people are not stupid either, Wu Ziming is saying that he is worried about the situation. However, if the Third Young Master of the Shangguan family dies here, Wu Chongxiu will absolutely sacrifice them without hesitation.

  What about the guards of the Upper Official's household?

  The two guards of the Shangguan family didn't care about Shangguan Yu at all.

  Shangguan Jiancheng was right next to him, and he had never gotten along with Shangguan Yu. When they were young, Shangguan Xinghong doted on Shangguan Yu alone, ignoring Shangguan Jiancheng altogether. At that time, Shangguan Jiancheng had already made up his mind: in the future, he would make sure Shangguan Yu was put in his place.

  Later, Shangguan Jiancheng discovered that Shangguan Yu was not his biological younger brother, meaning he was not the biological son of Shangguan Jinghong. Until later, when Shangguan Jinghong found out that Shangguan Yu could not cultivate martial arts, she stopped paying attention to him and instead doted on Shangguan Jiancheng even more.

  Shangguan Jinghong has been away fighting wars for many years, and at home Shangguan Jiancheng is the biggest. Although Shangguan Jiancheng is too small to manage the entire Shangguan family, training a few guards is still a piece of cake.

  Shangguan Jiancheng had long since made his stance clear: "Whoever dares to save that useless Shangguan Yu, I'll drive him out of the Shangguan household!"

  The guards were also smart people, who gained power and who lost it, they all understood very well. This young master Shangguan Yu was obviously not liked by the head of the household. These guards relied on the Shangguan family for food, and they knew what to do in their hearts.

  In the Feather Empire where might makes right, Shangguan Yu, this useless piece of trash who can't cultivate, is clearly not favored by most people.

  Shangguan Jiancheng coldly smiled as he looked at Shangguan Yu who was being beaten, without any sympathy, but instead with a sense of pleasure.

  "How did our family produce a useless person like you? My elder brother is a martial arts genius, and I will naturally not be inferior in the future. But what's wrong with you, a useless person?"

  Shangguan Yu looked at Shangguan Jiancheng with a vague expression, "My affairs are none of your business, who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to control me?"

  "Alright, alright! Today none of the guards are helping you out, let's see how long you can last?"

  Shangguan Jiancheng originally disliked Shangguan Yu, and now that he had been charged at by Shangguan Yu, he was so angry that smoke was rising from his head.

  The guards of the Wu family also knew the situation. Shangguan Jiancheng never interfered with how they beat up Shangguan Yu. As long as Wu Ziming didn't say stop, they were ready to keep beating him.

  It's just that other students couldn't bear it anymore, four bodyguards beating up a twelve-year-old kid is really too much.

  However, due to the influence of the Shangguan and Wu families, others did not dare to speak out.

  "You're not going to beg for mercy today? Then be prepared to die! I'll see how long you can last!"
