Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 747: Emotional Damage (1)

Could anyone in the same cultivation level still defeat Su Yu? With the destruction of his physical body and the damage to his sea of willpower, would Shan Xiong die?

Floating above the lake, Su Yu repeated himself, "The character is mine."

Jiang Tao clenched his teeth. Right that moment, someone else shouted with grief and indignation, "Su Yu! Don\'t be too excessive! Must you kill him?"

A figure flew out from among the crowd.

Standing before Su Yu, Shang Tianjiao mournfully asked, "He lost! He lost! You\'re stronger than him! You\'re the number one Skysoar! Are you not satisfied with this? Why must you kill him?"

She was still slightly absent-minded. She was still in disbelief. But she knew very well that Shan Xiong had lost. She had always thought that Shan Xiong might encounter defeat one day, but not now while he was still a Skysoar. But he had suffered a crushing defeat in Su Yu\'s hands.

From the start until the end, Shan Xiong did not manage to leave any serious injury on Su Yu\'s body. The worst injury on Su Yu was dealt by himself with the detonation of 144 acupoints. That was a one-sided fight. Shan Xiong stood no chance.

Su Yu looked at her indifferently and said, "Victory and defeat have been decided. Life or death is up to fate. If I was the one who has been defeated, would you guys take my characters away? Of course, I wouldn’t have gone back on my words. I\'d let you have my characters."

Shang Tianjiao was turning agitated. She clenched her teeth and asked, "What do you want? I can give it to you! You want characters? The Shang Family can give some to you! We can even give you some Sunmoon characters!"

"I only want his character."

Su Yu pointed at Jiang Tao. He could sense that Shan Xiong\'s character was different from the others. As for Sunmoon characters, he already had a few in his possession.

"Su Yu!" Shang Tianjiao asked furiously, "Are you not going to consider the consequences of this?"

"Consequences?" Su Yu nonchalantly asked, "What consequences are you speaking of? Speak clearly. Will Great Shang King trouble me over a dead man and an insignificant descendant like you? Ridiculous. Are you threatening me? Do you think I\'m your subordinate? Or do you think I\'m your vassal? Who are you to threaten me?"

Su Yu sneered. So what if she was the descendant of an Invincible? He had seen way too many Invincible descendants before.

"Shang Tianjiao, move aside. If you give me the impression that you\'re challenging me, I\'ll kill you."

Looking at Su Yu\'s frosty gaze, a chill crept up Shang Tianjiao\'s spine.

"Princess!"

The experts of Great Shang flew out. All of them stared at Su Yu warily.

Su Yu looked at the soldiers and smiled, "Do not be a sore loser. Shan Xiong himself had defeated the experts of over a dozen prefectures. Did any of those experts turn back on their words like a sore loser? Why should Shan Xiong be an exception?"

Shang Tianjiao gnashed her teeth and said, "No! You can\'t kill him! He\'s different! He\'s the hope of humanity!"

"Pfft!" Among the crowd, Wu Lan rolled her eyes and said, "You\'re talking like humanity will be destroyed without Shan Xiong. If he\'s the hope of humanity, then I\'m the ancestor of humanity."

Shang Tianjiao did not respond to those words, but Su Yu ignored Shang Tianjiao and flew straight toward Jiang Tao.

Shang Tianjiao roared furiously, "Stop him!"

The soldiers were all Mountainseas, but they all hesitated nervously. Stopping Su Yu?

"Hurry!"

Shang Tianjiao also flew toward Jiang Tao as she shouted, "I\'ll take Big Brother Shan Xiong back to Great Shang!"

She was trying to snatch Shan Xiong. She was worried that Great Zhou would give him away for the sake of their reputation. Seeing that Su Yu was still flying toward Shan Xiong, the soldiers gnashed their teeth and moved forward to stop Su Yu.

But right at that moment, Niu Baidao smiled and said, "You can always talk this out. It is unacceptable for the people of Great Shang to move against our elder right in Tiandu. Think carefully before making a move."

After saying that, he continued sipping his tea in an unhurried manner. Su Yu had won. In that case, there was nothing for him to worry about. As for those soldiers...he dared them to lay their hands on Su Yu. Did they really think that Great Ming was a pushover?

Su Yu smiled and ignored the Mountainsea soldiers as he continued flying toward Jiang Tao.

"Stop him! Hurry! Are you disobeying my order?"

The soldiers struggled. One of them said, "Principal Niu, we don\'t mean any harm. Elder Su, please stay your hand. We can talk this out..."

"Nope. I don\'t want to talk. I only want his character."

Su Yu flew right into them, forcing them to hurriedly move aside. Their hearts chilled. They couldn\'t touch Su Yu. If they did so, Niu Baidao might make a move against them. They weren\'t afraid of death, but their princess was still here.

"Elder Su, there are plenty of characters out there for you to take..."

They continued retreating as Su Yu flew in their direction.

At this point, Shang Tianjiao had reached Jiang Tao. She said, "Elder Jiang, hand Big Brother Shan Xiong to me. I\'ll take him away."

She needed to return to Great Shang as soon as possible. She intended to threaten Great Ming with her own life. She was the great granddaughter of Great Shang King, so that might work. Anyone else, including Jiang Tao, would have a hard time leaving with Shan Xiong.

Jiang Tao\'s eyes flickered as he silently handed her the golden ball in his hand. The golden ball was what he had created to protect Shan Xiong\'s sea of willpower. It would be hard for him to protect Shan Xiong by himself. Thus, he agreed to Shang Tianjiao\'s plan.

With the ball in hand, Shang Tianjiao gnashed her teeth and started flying away. While flying, she shouted, "I will self-detonate if anyone dares to stop me! Su Yu, we are willing to compensate you for this!"

She had barely finished her words when three Mountainsea beasts appeared in front of her. Behind her, Su Yu continued flying toward her. The Mountainsea soldiers were forced to retreat again and again. None of them dared to use force against him.

An expert among the crowd sighed and said, "Su Yu, where it is possible to let people off, one should spare them. Great Zhou and Great Shang will compensate you for this. Shan Xiong is a rare talent of the human race..."

Su Yu smiled and said, "Sure. I can spare him. He only needs to kowtow and apologize to all the multiple character faction branches he had shut down with his challenges. A genius is naturally entitled to special treatment. I will spare him."

The expert instantly shut his mouth. That was impossible.

Su Yu sneered.

"He was the one who had crushed the confidence of so many multiple character faction branches, forcing them to disband. It isn\'t an excessive request for him to kowtow and apologize to them, right?"

Jiang Tao had a cold look in his eyes as he said, "He can apologize, but kowtowing...those people..."

"Are unworthy?" Su Yu said, "Since he has lost to me, it is within my rights to kill him. But I\'m only asking for his character, not his life. Fate will decide whether he lives or dies after that. Don\'t be a hypocrite. Is he only allowed to win but not lose?"

Shang Tianjiao decided to ignore the three beasts and charged through them. Great Mountain rolled his eyes and sent a slap her way.

Boom!

A powerful burst of willpower erupted from Shang Tianjiao\'s body. An indistinct silhouette appeared above her. The silhouette glanced at the three beasts and sighed, "Su Yu, can you agree to take a step back for my sake? Tianjiao has fallen for Shan Xiong..."

"My apologies, but I don\'t know you."

At this point, Su Yu had reached Shang Tianjiao. The Mountainsea soldiers were all hovering before Shang Tianjiao with guilty expressions. They all lowered their heads in greeting to the silhouette.

"Greetings, Prefect!"

Shang Tianjiao also hurriedly said, "Grandpa, Big Brother Shan Xiong is greatly injured..."

The silhouette appeared quite helpless. He glanced at the distant Jiang Tao. This was supposed to be Great Zhou\'s business! But now...

The experts of Great Zhou weren\'t doing anything! Meanwhile, this granddaughter of his was the one rashly trying to take Shan Xiong away. That was so troublesome.

"Su Yu, a hundred drops of Mountainsea divine and devil blood essence!"

"I\'m not a beggar." Su Yu wasn\'t surprised even after learning the identity of the silhouette. He said, "A hundred drops?"

He laughed, "I don\'t lack something like that. I have a lot of money and plenty of divine and devil blood essence. Not even first divine and original devil blood essence is worth much to me. Great Xia sent me an eighth-stage Sunmoon divine skywing corpse recently. I haven\'t even touched that corpse. Great Ming also has a fifth-stage Sunmoon blood fire devil corpse that I can use anytime I want. Prefect Shang, do I look like a beggar to you? This matter is unrelated to Great Shang. I hope you can stay out of it."

Prefect Shang felt quite helpless. Yes. Su Yu did not lack money. His cultivation methods had earned him a lot of money. And Great Ming also treated him like an absolute treasure. What did he lack? Nothing!

After defeating Shan Xiong so easily today, Zhu Tiandao would place even more importance on him. Prefect Shang\'s head was aching. Shan Xiong with his character was worth investing in. But without his character, even if he survived, he would be a cripple. He would no longer be worth investing in. It was still not too late to stop that from happening.

The silhouette was about to speak when Niu Baidao sighed, "Aren\'t you guys being too excessive? If you want to talk, talk properly. What are you doing? Get down here and sit down. Prefect Shang, you\'re within our academy grounds. It\'s rude to use willpower possession on someone here."

The silhouette said, "It was too presumptuous of me. This possession was only for the sake of protecting Tianjiao. I don\'t mean anything else. Principal Niu, you\'re right. We can sit down and talk it out. Su Yu, state your terms. Even if it\'s not something Great Shang can fulfill, there\'s also Great Zhou. You have amazing characters yourself, so what\'s the point of taking Shan Xiong\'s character? You might as well take some important resources instead. You must be suffering from your detonated acupoints as well. You should focus on recovery..."

Someone from the Knowledge Seeking Academy said, "Exactly. Principal Niu, Su Yu, we\'re all humans. This is merely a spar. Why insist on killing Shan Xiong? We can always talk this out."

"That\'s right. Even if Su Yu was the one who had been defeated, we would be saying the same thing to Great Zhou as well. We aren\'t siding with anyone. We simply don\'t wish to see the loss of a human genius to something like a spar."

"..."

More and more people spoke out. Some of them were still somewhat absent-minded even now. Shan Xiong\'s defeat had been too miserable. His physical body had been fully destroyed.

Even his sea of willpower was badly damaged. He was barely hanging on with his character. Without that character, he would die for sure. They weren\'t too worried about his body since Shan Xiong\'s strength mainly came from his character.

At most, they only needed to pay a high price to rebuild his physical body before helping him with recultivation. Then again, even that would be challenging. Shan Xiong had also worked hard for his physical cultivation. All of that was now gone.
