Before she could react, another cursed spirit emerged from a tricky angle.

After barely managing to block that attack, a relentless barrage of blows followed.

Maki found it increasingly difficult to fight back, as her opponent seemed to know her perfectly, striking her in the most difficult spots with every attack.

In fact, Maki was right; Natsuyuki was indeed very skilled at dealing with "Heaven and Tyrant".

After being nearly killed by Fuheishen back then, Xia Youjie reviewed the incident countless times.

So much so that through constant review and analysis, he himself has become a master of close combat.

Zenjima Maki's rudimentary physical skills posed no challenge whatsoever in Natsumi Yuuki's eyes.

She only revealed a small opening, and the cursed spirit's sharp blade left a deep wound on her waist, from which blood gushed out.

The intense pain made Maki gasp for breath, and her movements faltered for a moment.

The other cursed spirits around her seized the opportunity and swarmed forward to tear her to pieces.

However, just as it was about to be dismembered, the cursed spirit stopped moving.

Then, Maki heard Natsumi say unhappily from across the table:

"You can't even bear to come out like this? You're truly heartless, you coward!"

Chapter 115: A Fierce Fight Erupts

A gentle breeze blew by, but there was no sound in response to Xia Youjie's words.

Receiving no response, Xia Youjie smiled helplessly and said:

"Aren't you going to come out yet? Or are you planning to play hide-and-seek with me in my tent?"

As his words fell, the centipede-shaped cursed spirit surrounding Zenji Maki instantly transformed into a streak of blood.

It shot towards a large tree behind him.

The centipede's cursed spirit's sharp limbs instantly sliced ​​the thick tree trunk into a flurry of flying wood chips.

Even the centipede spirit continued its relentless attack towards the exposed figure behind the tree.

"Crack~"

A crisp, heavy thud rang out amidst the flying tree debris, followed by a dull thud as the mysterious man slapped the centipede spirit into countless tiny fragments, which were then evenly spread across the ground.

This shocking scene made Xia Youjie raise an eyebrow and secretly become wary.

The mysterious man was dressed in unremarkable overalls and wore a menacing mask.

Judging from his build and voice, the other person must be quite young.

The person who arrived was none other than Suzuki Yuki, who had secretly followed Xia Youjie into the Spellcasting Academy.

He had arrived in Tokyo two days earlier, but by then the sorcerers in Tokyo had already begun to impose martial law.

So Suzuki simply waited quietly at the hotel for two days.

He didn't officially begin his operation until that huge "tent" was raised in downtown Tokyo.

However, his target was not the "tent" and the 1000 cursed spirits inside.

Instead, it was the Spellcasting Academy where Xia Youjie studied.

Thanks to Xia Youjie clearing the way, Suzuki encountered no obstacles along the way.

Until I witnessed the battle between Natsuyu Jie and Zenin Maki... it couldn't even be called a battle, it was just a one-sided beating.

Then, he was discovered by Xia Youjie.

To be honest, Suzuki himself was also surprised, as he considered his stealth abilities to be quite good.

"Can you tell me where I went wrong?"

Even though he might not get an answer from the other party, Suzuki still asked Natsuyuki out of curiosity.

Because the techniques were not very convenient to use, Suzuki took a different approach and chose to hone his physical skills.

But that doesn't mean he'll abandon the useful power of spells.

With the Heart-Shattering Wave Palm as a reference, Suzuki started practicing the Super Strength Fist from Naruto.

The principle behind Super Strength Fist is not complicated: it involves compressing one's own energy and then unleashing it all at once.

You can try this in any world that has an energy system.

For example, Miss Feng, who is the counterpart of the character in the world of Under One Person, is well-versed in this.

The two of them even discussed their experiences in this area at Wanshou Square.

The Heart-Shattering Palm technique obtained at the second gathering is similar in principle to the Super Strength Fist.

Both involve concentrating one's own strength; the only difference is that the superhuman strength punch is unleashed in a single burst.

The Overlapping Wave Palm gathers several portions of energy at once and then unleashes them in an orderly manner within a very short period of time.

Both share a common skill: control.

Whether it's condensing and unleashing energy or mobilizing and distributing it, it requires extremely strong energy control capabilities.

Otherwise, if the energy compressed within the body gets out of control, it can easily make a person so powerful that they explode.

Therefore, Suzuki has always been very confident in his control over his magical power.

Suzuki's powerful control over his magical energy allowed him to lock it firmly within his body, and he also learned to conceal his aura.

"You've done very well; I'm just a little more skilled."

Xia Youjie, as expected, did not have the habit of being a know-it-all, thus thwarting Suzuki's plan to get some free guidance.

Despite Xia Youjie's seemingly casual tone, he was actually terrified.

He was able to detect the other party entirely because he habitually released some small, non-combat-capable cursed spirits around him.

Through the power of the spell spirit manipulation technique, he can receive feedback from the spell spirits.

The other party was just unlucky enough to have their tracks detected by a small cursed spirit.

In fact, he did not sense the other party's presence at all until he saw the other party appear in person.

He had experienced this strange feeling once before, ten years ago, with Fuheshchen.

However, because Fuhe Shen'er had no magical power in his body, his perception of magical power was naturally ineffective against the other party.

But Suzuki who appeared was different. Judging from the cursed power that erupted from that slap, the opponent was not "Heavenly Curse".

This made Xia Youjie subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief, but then he was somewhat annoyed by his own reaction.

"I've answered your question. Now, can you tell me why you're following me?"

"I'm going to take your body with me."

Suzuki answered honestly.

Suzuki's answer almost made Xia Youjie choke on his breath.

What's the difference between this and directly saying, "I'm here to kill you"?

"Did someone send you to kill me? I had no idea there was such a person as you at the Sorcery Academy."

Xia Youjie mentally reviewed his enemies.

Over the past ten years, he has indeed offended many people in order to develop the Panxing Sect, but because he has been relatively clean in his dealings, he has no enemies, at least no living enemies.

If you were to ask who hates him the most lately, it would probably be the Spellcasting major who was challenged to a duel by him.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the other party is a bounty hunter, and Xia Youjie's words also had a probing meaning.

However, faced with Xia Youjie's probing, Suzuki tilted his head and asked him curiously:

Do you still have time to test my identity?

As Suzuki finished speaking, a loud bang suddenly came from the sky.

Xia Youjie's "tent" was broken open from the outside, and two figures entered the college campus.

They were Gojo Satoru's students, Inu-maki Thorn and Panda.

Gojo Satoru could return at any time.

Although Suzuki concealed his identity, he was essentially a law-abiding citizen with no criminal record.

Even if I run into Gojo Satoru, it's not a big deal; I might even get an autograph.

But Xia Youjie was out of luck; with Wutiao Wu's arrival, his plan was essentially doomed.

"No, so I didn't waste any time!"

Upon hearing Suzuki's question, Natsumi smiled and replied.

He had barely finished speaking when the ground beneath Suzuki's feet suddenly caved in, and a maw full of fangs snapped shut, about to devour Suzuki whole.

It turns out that while communicating with Suzuki, Xia Youjie had already released a cursed spirit skilled in underground warfare.

Faced with Xia Youjie's unsportsmanlike sneak attack, Suzuki lightly raised one foot and then stomped it down heavily.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, a large area of ​​the ground beneath Suzuki's feet instantly caved in, and spiderweb-like cracks spread outwards.

As for the cursed spirit that launched the underground attack, it has already merged with the soil and rocks underground.

"Maki, how are you?"

As soon as Dog-Roll Thorn and Panda landed, they rushed to Maki's side. Panda asked with concern.

Maki gritted her teeth and tried to stand up straight, supporting herself with the knife, but the wound on her waist and abdomen caused excruciating nerve pain, making her groan involuntarily.

Blood trickled down his trouser leg, leaving dark stains on the soil.

"Help him!"

Gritting her teeth, Maki said to her two classmates.

Chapter 116: Fierce Battle

Suzuki felt the pressure as soon as the match began.

Xia Youjie truly lives up to his reputation as a twin star who shines alongside Gojo Satoru.

His mastery of various types of spirits through spirit manipulation allows him to handle all kinds of situations with ease.

Logically speaking, the main body of a summoner character should be the most vulnerable part.

However, Xia Youjie, who had experienced the shock of "Heaven and Tyrant", had worked hard in this area.

In terms of physical skills alone, Xia Youjie could rank among the top three well-known strongmen in this world.

However, Suzuki had only been training for less than a year.

But actual combat experience takes a long time to develop.

People in this country seem to have a strange penchant for bullying; bullies exist in almost every place.

As an orphan, Suzuki naturally experienced this classic tradition as well.

However, compared to those who passively accept being bullied, Suzuki was much more rebellious.

He doesn't hesitate to throw his punches when facing an opponent he can beat.

When faced with a situation where the other side outnumbers him, he will run away first, and then follow up one by one to beat up each participant. His stealth skills were honed through his battles of wits and courage with the delinquents.

Moreover, he had been unconsciously absorbing fragments of the souls of his peers since childhood.

The gradually strengthening soul also nourishes his body in return.

While not as exaggerated as Haddock's or "Heavenly Curse," his physique has always been far superior to that of his peers.

Therefore, Suzuki always wins in his battles against delinquents and bullies.

Gradually, no one dared to cause him any trouble, but the matter didn't end there.

Perhaps because Suzuki's behavior was too shocking, ordinary students no longer dared to approach him.

Suzuki also experienced negative emotions due to loneliness and being looked at differently.

Although he often felt irritable, he knew it was wrong to vent his emotions on ordinary classmates.

If he did that, wouldn't he become just as tasteless as those guys he beat up?
