Su Mo answered Xiao Yushu without hesitation, triggering many different reactions.

Did Wushan not know how powerful Xiao Yushu could be? He did not even spare a moment of thought and had gone for it directly!

Hu Mei’er and Cui Yan exchanged glances, noticing the glee in their eyes.

How interesting!

They had just been defeated by Wu Shan and now Xiao Yushu had come to avenge them!

Between Wu Shan and Xiao Yushu, the latter would win hands down!

“Brother Wu Shan!” Qin Zhi approached him. He tugged on Su Mo’s sleeves, urging the man not to do things rashly.

Su Mo grinned and patted him on the shoulder, assuring him that he would not be harmed by Xiao Yushu, otherwise he would double the payback.

“Wu Shan, I hoped you have considered it thoroughly. If you lose, you will have to leave the Palmy Branch. You’ll no longer be a disciple of the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance,” Xiao Yushu smirked, despite looking stern.

This was not a binding bet, so he had to confirm it in case Wu Shan regretted it later.

“I’ve thought about it very clearly. You, however, as Reverend Jin Wu’s personal disciples, what if you lose? Would you be willing to withdraw from the Palmy Branch?” Su Mo said calmly.

“Me? Lose?”

Xiao Yushu grinned knowingly as he surveyed the crowd and asked them, “Do you think that I, Xiao Yushu, will lose?”

“Haha, that’s impossible!”

“Brother Yushu will win!”

“There’s zero chance you’ll lose!”

“…”

There was a lot of talk. No one believed Xiao Yushu would lose. That would be completely impossible.

Xiao Yushu’s training was at Ninth Grade, Low Rank, just like Cui Yan, but their skill sets were on entirely different levels.

Xiao Yushu’s mental strength was also extremely powerful, far beyond that of other martial artists of the same rank.

One could say that there might be thousands of people at Ninth Grade, Low Rank in the whole Palmy Branch, but none could surpass Xiao Yushu in a battle.

Xiao Yushu was so strong!

“Wu Shan, that’s not worth your worry. Since you dare to accept this challenge, it’s best you think of a way to lose less miserably!” Xiao Yushu replied coldly.

He clearly how strong Xiao Yushu was. The man’s mental strength and capabilities were among the highest in existence.

In the Palmy Branch, there were few below the Supreme Being Realm with higher training than Xiao Yushu who could defeat him.

“I hope you keep your promise. Let’s begin!” Su Mo stared directly at Xiao Yushu. The stakes were high this time, but if the man went back on his word, there would be nothing Su Mo could do about it.

So, Su Mo was prepared to make him pay the ultimate price in this battle.

“Hehe!” Xiao Yushu snickered. He strode towards the giant crystal stone, followed by Su Mo.

The two stood before the crystal stone and placed their hands on it.

Everyone gathered around to watch the match.

At that moment, no one else was fighting in the Holy Pavilion besides Su Mo and Xiao Yushu. They had all come to watch.

Su Mo’s mental strength turned into a long sword upon entering the crystal stone and stayed on guard. He had the confidence to win, but he had to take precautions too.

He had not known for sure what Xiao Yushu’s mental strength was capable of.

“Wu Shan, you will find out how distant our gap is!” Xiao Yushu’s voice sounded. His mental strength had transformed into an illusionary lookalike, a faint smile hanging on its face.

“Xiao Yushu, I hope you still can laugh after this!” The long sword which had been transformed by Su Mo’s mental power called out, sounding indifferent.

“Haha!” Xiao Yushu gave a hearty laugh and said scornfully, “You’re nothing but a mere ant. Do you really think you can fight me?”

With that, Xiao Yushu’s mental strength transformed into an ancient bell, ticking away.

The front of the bell was facing Su Mo’s mental strength.

Boom~

From within the ancient bell came a low, dull sound. It formed invisible soundwaves and rushed towards Su Mo’s mental strength.

“What a strong mental attack!” Su Mo was surprised. Xiao Yushu had certainly made a powerful move, greatly increasing its mental attack power.

Hum~

Su Mo’s mental strength vibrated slightly among the invisible sound waves, but that was all. His mental strength would not be shaken by this.

It was his turn to make a move. His mental strength changed again, this time into a large hand. With lightning speed, it made a grab at the ancient bell.

Then, with a tight squeeze, he was about to smash the bell into bits.

“How’s this possible?” Xiao Yushu said, horrified. The ancient bell kept shaking, but it could not break away from the large hand.

It was like a young child being held by a teenager. No matter how the kid struggled, it had no effect.

Xiao Yushu was shocked as he questioned Su Mo’s mighty mental strength.

This level of mental strength was stronger than the average martial artist at Ninth Grade, Middle Rank, and almost comparable to one at Ninth Grade, High Rank.

“We’re done!” came a voice. The huge hand forcefully came down on Xiao Yushu’s mental power, completely crushing it.

Su Mo’s approach was rather harsh. When he fought and crushed Cui Yan’s mental strength, the latter was still able to withdraw from the crystal stone after its defeat.

But Xiao Yushu’s mental strength did not get the chance, for it was totally wiped out by Su Mo.

“Ah!”

Outside the crystal stone, Xiao Yushu suddenly screamed. A terrible cry came out of his mouth as blood splattered everywhere.

Then, his upright figure slumped onto the ground like a slab of mud, his eyes turned white, looking very much like a dead dog.

“This…!”

Everyone was appalled. Their eyes snapped wide open as they took in the shocking scene.

It only took the time of two breaths!

In such a short time, Xiao Yushu was defeated in a much more disgraceful manner than Cui Yan had been.

In this case, it was clear that Xiao Yushu’s mental strength had been wiped out, leaving his Spiritual Soul more damaged than ever.

Hu Mei’er and Cui Yan were quite certain Su Mo would lose. They had even gotten ready to mock him. Now, the outcome had left them petrified.

The entire Holy Pavilion became as silent as death.

Everyone present, be it Qin Zhi, Hu Mei’er, Cui Tan, the yellow-robed man, or even the audience, could not believe what they had just witnessed.

“You’ve failed!” Su Mo retracted the hand that had been previously placed on the crystal stone and stared down at Xiao Yushu. However, the man’s eyes rolled up, his body still twitching. He could not hear Su Mo at all.

It seemed that this battle had severely crippled the man’s Spiritual Soul.

Su Mo had mixed feelings. He wanted this to happen, but he also worried that Reverend Jin Wu would blame him.

Hush~

Su Mo’s words instantly pulled everyone’s thoughts back to reality as the sounds of the audience gasping rose here and there.
