When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 215 is now a personal grudge.

The jet-black heavy armor was cut through by the blade's light, and even the body inside, tempered by countless trials, was no match for the sharpness of the blade.

Yun Shu flipped his hand, and the energy blade not only severed the spine but also shredded the internal organs, causing Xu Kaicheng's body to turn into white light and disappear.

Then, he gracefully retreated, dodging the incoming sword light.

Jingjie merged with her sword, transforming into a ball of sword light that attacked Yun Shu, but she could never catch up with Yun Shu's figure.

Yun Shu seemed to retreat slowly but actually swiftly, then suddenly retaliated with a palm strike.

A surge of true energy, like a sword reaching to the heavens, pierced through the sword light, displaying a sharp edge. It sliced ​​through the sword in Jing Jie's hand, its momentum undiminished, and struck Jing Jie squarely in the chest.

A streak of blood burst from behind Jingjie, landing on the ground and leaving a blade mark.

Jingjie staggered backward, coughing up blood. Her veins felt like they were being cut by knives, and she almost fell.

Compared to his fight with Bai Ze that day, Yun Shu's "Azure Netherworld Severing Technique" seemed to have improved. This blade of true energy was now able to separate from his body several inches away, and even after leaving his palm, its momentum remained undiminished, breaking through Jing Jie's move and causing him to lose.

In contrast, Yun Shu remained calm and composed, even untouched by dust.

With Jingjie's defeat, the remaining members of the Renxia Society, Binggong Society, and Lingyin Society immediately retreated, and their decline was already evident.

Seeing this, Yun Shu raised her hand to signal the martial arts club members to stop and looked at the other party.

He personally led his men to the North City, defeated the guardians, and seized the Great Seal. He originally intended to leave directly, but instead sealed off the people from the Astronomy Society and the News Agency in the North City.

But Sima Ming and Zhao Yao were no fools either. They seized the opportunity and charged out just as the guardians were defeated, using their mutual destruction to slow down the martial arts club.

Sima Ming was eliminated by Yun Shu, but Zhao Yao, despite being only a four-star, possessed truly remarkable lightness skills, managing to escape even after being entangled for quite some time.

After Yun Shu left Beicheng, he was ambushed by Luo Shui, Chu Junzhao, Xu Kaicheng, and Jing Jie.

The people from the Wenhua Society and the Buddhist Society couldn't even be held back.

However, he still won in the end.

Yun Shu's gaze swept over Chu Junzhao and Luo Shui, and finally landed on Jing Jie.

Without the megaphone, Chu Junzhao posed no threat to Yun Shu, let alone Luo Shui.

"Tsk, if it weren't for Huo Heng's sneak attack, I could have lasted a few more minutes."

Jingjie used acupressure to stop the bleeding, steadied herself, spat out a mouthful of bloody foam, and said.

"It's only a few more minutes," Yun Shu said indifferently.

Even if Jingjie wasn't injured, she could only last a few more minutes at most.

Since Yun Shu took over as president, the martial arts club has never lost. Whether it was Jing Jie or any other club president, they had all been defeated by Yun Shu, and not just once.

He truly possesses strength that surpasses everyone else.

But this time, the situation is different.

"A few minutes will be enough."

Although Jingjie was defeated, there was no sign of dejection on her face. "You sensed it, didn't you? The auras of Bai Ze and that guy Huo Heng... Your siege failed, but our delay was successful."

This time, Yun Shu's side took the initiative, first ambushing Jing Jie, and then directly blocking the gate of Beicheng, forcing the Astronomy Society and the News Agency to launch a forced attack.

Jingjie had already prepared herself for a complete defeat, but was pulled out of the woods by Luoshui and the others.

Then, following Luo Shui's advice, they came to intercept Yun Shu.

This move was undoubtedly the right one.

If Bai Ze can break through the encirclement, then there is still a chance of victory.

Yun Shu signaled the martial arts club members to stop because he had noticed Bai Ze's arrival.

"wrong······"

Jingjie's eyes suddenly lit up. "It won't take more than a few minutes."

Huo Heng's aura disappeared, while another surging aura surged forth from the distant grove of trees.

Bai Ze slowly emerged from the woods, standing in the distance across a pond.

He spoke, his voice ringing out, "Huo Heng, Xu Xiao, Yuan Chi, and Qiao Yuexuan are all dead. Now, it's your turn."

As he spoke, his aura grew increasingly turbulent.

Four stars!

Without needing to say more, Yun Shu was already able to determine Bai Ze's current realm. He even had a rough estimate of Bai Ze's combat strength.

The fact that Bai Ze was able to kill all of these people shows that his strength cannot be judged by the standards of a four-star martial artist.

"I will kill you and utterly defeat you."

Bai Ze looked at Yun Shu with eyes that seemed to be covered with frost, giving those who met his gaze a cold determination.

That was murderous intent!
"It seems that Junior Brother Bai Ze has some misunderstandings about me."

Meeting the cold gaze, Yun Shu discerned some clues.

For example, Bai Ze has already decided that he is the mastermind behind it all.

If those gamblers who bet on Huo Heng didn't have definite information, why would they consider Huo Heng the final upset?

Even if Huo Heng concealed his strength, he couldn't even get past Yun Shu, so how could he possibly get past Bai Ze, who was the obvious favorite?

They must have known the exact details to suddenly enter the market at the last minute and inject a large amount of funds to bet on Huo Heng.

The only people who could provide this information are Huo Heng and the people who made the deal with him.

"Junior Brother Bai Ze may have found out something and misunderstood me, but I believe I will be innocent."

Yun Shu smiled and said, "Please don't act impulsively, Junior Brother Bai Ze, lest you regret it later."

That's what she said, but Yun Shu's expression made it seem like she was admitting it.

But actually?
Yun Shu is indeed innocent; even if the Ministry of Justice were to judge, he would still be innocent.

At most, he and Qu Jingxuan did some things like manipulate the odds to lure others into betting.

Taking action against Luo Tao was someone's own decision, and had nothing to do with Yun Shu.

The guilty party is that person, not Yun Shu.

Moreover, with Wan Yi Zhi Ji blocking the way, Bai Ze couldn't even find out who the culprit was, let alone find any evidence related to Yun Shu.

Yun Shu understood this perfectly, so he deliberately provoked Bai Ze.

The intention was both to make Bai Ze lose his composure in the upcoming battle and to make Bai Ze take the initiative to cross the line and deal with him after the Yujing Martial Arts Tournament.

If Bai Ze crosses the line, Qu Jingxuan and the Yun family, with their combined power, will have a lot more options.

"They really are fearless."

Bai Ze's response to Yun Shu's methods was quite indifferent.

He simply looked at Yun Shu indifferently and said, "Instead of worrying that I will regret it, you should worry more about yourself, Senior Yun Shu."

"If you lose this battle, your past glory will no longer belong to you, and you will also need to participate in the Metaverse exploration."

"Of course, you can use your incomplete injuries as an excuse to refuse. However, you cannot break through while your injuries are still healing."

A mocking expression appeared on Bai Ze's face.

Once Yun Shu breaks through, it means his injuries have recovered, and he will have to lead people to explore the Yuan Realm.

In that way, Bai Ze could wipe out all of Yun Shu's manpower.

He didn't want to participate in the exploration of the primordial realm, so he could only endure it, and even after his injuries recovered, he couldn't break through.

Or perhaps they've made a breakthrough but haven't shown their face?

But what's the difference between that and exploring the dimensional realm?
Neither of them could appear at Yujing Martial Arts University, and they couldn't stop Bai Ze from doing anything.

If we can win this battle against Bai Ze and curb his rise to power, that would be good.

If they lose, Yun Shu will be gradually pushed to the edge of a cliff.

“My brother is dead, I am heartbroken, but all I have lost is a weakness.”

Bai Ze laughed, his voice filled with deep malice, "And you, you will lose everything."

He will make Yun Shu lose everything, including her life.

Making Yun Shu suffer a crushing defeat in the Yujing Martial Arts Tournament was only the first step. Next, Bai Ze would push him to his death step by step.

There are others as well, and Bai Ze will not forget them either.

If the past hostility towards Yun Shu and others was a conflict of positions, then the present is a personal grudge.
