Shocking! The female protagonist unlocked her powers by killing people!

Teacher Bai realized that Dongfang Yu wanted to use this opportunity to deal with Ling Yi, but he couldn't persuade Ling Yi and couldn't do anything about Dongfang Yu either.

"Since you've agreed, then let's go."

"Alright." Dongfang Yu responded, leading a large group of people toward the life-or-death arena.

As the news spread along the way, more and more people followed. When they arrived at their destination, Ling Yi and Dongfang Yu went directly to the life-or-death arena and signed a contract.

After the two signed a life-or-death contract, the contract took effect, and their combined strength increased by 10%, forming a barrier that enveloped the arena. Unless one of them died, the barrier would not disappear.

After the barrier was created, Dongfang Jibai, who had received the message, rushed over. He glanced at Ling Yi through the barrier, then looked at Dongfang Yu and couldn't help but curse, "Idiot."

In the Dongyang Empire, the Dongfang surname is the royal family's surname. Anyone with this surname is either a member of the royal family or a member of the royal family. Dongfang Yu is older than Dongfang Jibai and is considered Dongfang Jibai's elder brother. Therefore, although Dongfang Jibai disapproved of his cousin's behavior, he never took the initiative to scold him.

But now, Dongfang Jibai, who was seen as gentle and refined by other students, has directly cursed them.

The other students were somewhat surprised. Could it be that Dongfang Jibai had fallen for Ling Yi because he called his cousin an idiot?

The students thought this way because they couldn't think of any other reason. After all, Ling Yi had just entered the school, and he couldn't possibly be angry with his cousin just because of their friendship, could he?

These people wouldn't know that when Dongfang Jibai cursed Dongfang Yu, it was literally what he said.

Ling Yi could kill three pythons in a row, so why would he be afraid of Dongfang Yu? In Dongfang Jibai's eyes, Dongfang Yu's actions were foolish and courting death.

However, once they were on the life-or-death stage, it was too late to say anything more.

Just then, the head teachers of the second-level college and the third-level college arrived with their entourage. Upon seeing the head teacher of the third-level college, Teacher Bai said unhappily, "When will the third-level college start managing those who bully their classmates?"

Upon hearing this, the teacher in charge of the third-level college replied indifferently, "We can manage things within the college, but what about outside the college?"

“Even if you don’t meet them in the academy, you will meet them outside after you leave the academy.” The teacher in charge of the third-level academy said, “We can only manage for a while, not forever. This world is one where the strong are respected.”

Upon hearing this, Teacher Bai seemed about to say something, but the teacher in charge of the three-level college spoke again: "Furthermore, those who are bullied have a choice. If they don't even come to the teacher themselves, how can the teacher stand up for them?"

"If the teacher makes a hasty decision, will he face even stronger retaliation? Will he then resent the teacher?"

"In this world, either you are strong enough, or you have a powerful backer, or... you yourself are not afraid of death." The head teacher of the third-level academy said, "Whether you live a cowardly life or choose to die rather than live a life of dishonor, the choice is yours. Don't rely on others."

“You’re right, this world is indeed one where the strong rule. But I think the academy is different from the outside world. If we interfere, he might face even stronger retaliation after he leaves. But if we can’t even guarantee that he can cultivate properly while he’s in the academy, how will he protect himself when he leaves?”

The head teacher of the third-level college gave Teacher Bai a deep look: "What you saw before should all be good things, but now that you are a teacher, you will see more and more problems in the college in the future."

“The world is not black and white. You will see many things that you cannot accept. If you cannot accept them, then stay away from them.” The teacher in charge of the third-level academy said, “Take Xu Zijie as an example. He has no one or no power behind him. He entered the academy on his own. He wants to spend his study days in peace, so he chooses to endure. This kind of endurance has two results. One is that it will make Dongfang Yu and the others more aggressive. The other is that it will make them feel that bullying such people is boring and gradually lose interest.”

"There are also people like Ling Yi who are not afraid of the power and strength behind them and will fight head-on. This kind of backbone that would rather die standing than live on their knees is good, but I do not agree with it, because you have more opportunities if you live. Of course, whether you die standing or live on your knees is your own choice and should be respected."

Teacher Bai disagreed, but the life-or-death battle was about to begin, and Teacher Bai's attention was drawn away by the competition, so he didn't talk to the teacher in charge of the three-level college any longer.

The teacher in charge of the three-level colleges said no more and looked towards the competition stage.

As soon as the barrier appeared, Dongfang Yu couldn't wait to attack Ling Yi. If Ling Yi were really just a level nine spiritual master, he would definitely not be able to dodge Dongfang Yu's attack, but Ling Yi was not.

The instant Dongfang Yu attacked, Ling Yi flashed away from his original spot and appeared on the other side of the arena, smiling as he said, "Dongfang Yu, I have something to show you."

Dongfang Yu sneered upon hearing this: "What, do you want to see you kneel down and beg for mercy?"

"Too late. If you had knelt down and begged for mercy earlier, I might have let you go."

"No, that's not it." Ling Yi said with a smile, then reached from her right hand to her left, grabbed it, and pulled it outward.

Seeing Ling Yi's action, Dongfang Yu was about to make sarcastic remarks, but his expression froze the next second.

A white bone knife slowly emerged as Ling Yi moved.

The crowd below the stage was stunned by what they saw: "Holy crap, she pulled out a knife from her left hand?"

"That bone knife is so smooth, so white and shiny, so beautiful!"

"It must have been taken out of the storage artifact he was wearing on his left hand."

"I also think so, how could someone possibly pull a knife out of their left hand?"

"Judging from the length and shape of that bone knife, it's impossible. I don't know what the person who said they pulled the knife out of their left hand was thinking."

The barrier didn't block out sound, and Dongfang Yu heard what everyone was saying. Only then did he realize what was happening and mocked, "Playing tricks."

Ling Yi wasn't angry when he heard this, he just smiled and said, "Dongfang Yu, have you ever seen the light at dawn?"

"very beautiful."

Before Dongfang Yu could answer, he saw Ling Yi swing the bone knife.

The blade flashed white, like the light that bursts forth from the darkness at dawn, growing ever brighter.

Dongfang Yu squinted slightly as he was stung by the white light. Before he could react, the white light disappeared, and at the same time, a loud bang came from the barrier behind him, and the entire barrier began to shatter.

The barrier of the Life and Death Arena was formed by combining the cultivation levels of the two people by 10%. The strength that Ling Yi displayed at this moment far exceeded the power that the barrier could withstand, which is why the barrier was directly cut through by the blade light.

Dongfang Yu heard the sound and wanted to turn around to look, but... a loud bang rang out.

Dongfang Yu saw the people below the competition stage, but he couldn't see their heads; all he could see were their bodies.

How did that happen?

He was standing on the competition platform, and he was clearly taller than them, so how come he could only see their waists and not their heads?

"what!"

A scream rang out, followed by more and more screams. The crowd surged and the scene became chaotic. Dongfang Yu wanted to ask them what their names were, but found that he couldn't open his mouth at all.

Finally, Dongfang Yu realized something, and his expression turned terrified. He didn't want to die, but the ending was already predetermined.

Ling Yi put away the bone knife and walked over.

Dongfang Yu was dead, his expression terrifying. Ling Yi clicked her tongue lightly, wanting to ask him if the light was beautiful, but the chance was gone.

A sharp pain shot through Ling's left hand. She glanced at it, and before the blood had completely soaked through and become visible, she looked at the crowd below the stage and said, "It's over. You guys can take care of it."

After saying that, Ling vanished from the spot in an instant.

Ling Yi severed Dongfang Yu's head with a single stroke. Dongfang Yu's head fell to the ground with a smooth and clean cut, without any blood splattering, yet it was even more horrifying and terrifying than that.

Seeing heads fall off firsthand was too much for the students in the academy to bear, causing them to scream, vomit, and create chaos.

Actually, it's normal. Not only were the students finding it hard to handle, but even the teachers were shocked.

Shocked by Ling Yi's true strength as a level nine spiritual master who could sever Dongfang Yu's head with a single strike, and also shocked by... Ling Yi's ruthlessness.

They both learned the reason for the life-or-death battle from Teacher Bai. It wasn't a big deal, but Dongfang Yu had never mentioned Tieban before. Relying on his superior strength, he wanted to teach Ling Yi a lesson. When he learned about the life-or-death battle, he happily agreed.

Ke Lingyi knew this; she knew her true strength and that Dongfang Yu was no match for her. She proposed a life-or-death battle to kill Dongfang Yu, and Dongfang Yu, knowing he wasn't a good person either, jumped in.

Ultimately, Dongfang Yu brought this upon himself, but Ling Yi's act of guiding Dongfang Yu to his death was rather ruthless.
