Chapter 85: Rebound

Xin Ge arrived in front of Yang Haosi in the blink of an eye.

His fists rained down like a storm on banana leaves.

There was a reason why the Strength Talent was called the Mangfu Talent.

At close range, Yang Haosi had no room to retaliate.

But strangely, Yang Haosi had not been killed despite being hit by so many of Xin Ge's punches.

The layer of earthy yellow protective film covering his body actually absorbed all of Xin Ge's strength.

Xin Ge's fists were moving so fast they left afterimages.

Yang Haosi was forced to retreat step by step by Xin Ge's blows.

As the furious assault continued, Xin Ge gradually noticed something was wrong.

Under normal circumstances, this son of a bitch would have been pounded into meat paste by Xin Ge's fists, more than enough to make some 'pissing' meatballs.

But that layer of earthy yellow aura on his body had swallowed all the energy.

Moreover, Xin Ge clearly felt that the energy contained within that protective film was steadily increasing as he continued to hit him.

Yang Haosi smiled, raised his hand, and beckoned to the Blue-Patterned Ghoul-Face Spider.

“Is that all? That's all you've got! Now it's my turn to fight back! Ghoul-Face Spider, come here!”

The Blue-Patterned Ghoul-Face Spider flashed towards Xin Ge in a dense swarm.

Xin Ge glanced at them, raised his hand, and pressed down on the Blue-Patterned Ghoul-Face Spider from a distance.

A white bear, glowing with fire, appeared out of thin air.

The white bear fiercely pounded its chest with its fists.

It charged towards the Blue-Patterned Ghoul-Face Spiders.

Yang Haosi's expression changed for the first time upon seeing this.

“You actually have a white bear with peak Level 4 combat power!”

“Surprised? Unexpected?”

Yang Haosi's face twisted, and he flipped his hand, stuffing a purple bead into his mouth, then grinned maniacally.

“But so what! You're going to die today no matter what!”

Visibly, the earthy yellow protective film on Yang Haosi's body began to turn purple little by little.

And Yang Haosi's skin also turned purple, as if he had become a poisonous man.

Xin Ge immediately realized that what Yang Haosi was holding in his mouth was a Witchcraft System treasure, and Yang Haosi was also wearing a Witchcraft System treasure.

Under the enhancement of his Perception Talent, he clearly sensed the crisis escalating.

Yang Haosi pressed his chest.

His aura surged again, and his overall combat power rose to peak Level 4, feeling as if he was only a hair's breadth away from Level 5 combat power.

This change caused a wave of exclamations from below.

In the Dean's office, Sun Bijun said coldly, “That Witchcraft System treasure on him is very strong. The reason he didn't fight back was to store Xin Ge's energy. This is a Witchcraft System spell, Witchcraft Rebound! This is when all of Xin Ge's attacks are returned, and enough Gu poison is also released!”

As she spoke, Sun Bijun turned to look at Zhuge Heng. Zhuge Heng grinned, showing his small white teeth, and said, “Xin Ge's main profession is the Mangfu Talent. He has thick skin and flesh, so even if the rebound is doubled, it won't be a big deal!”

At the Yang Family, Jiang Suqing anxiously looked at an old man sitting cross-legged in front of her, with a bead floating before him.

Inside the bead was the scene of Xin Ge and Yang Haosi fighting.

And a Witchcraft aura emanated from the old man, connecting with the bead, using this bead as a medium to transmit his Witchcraft aura to Yang Haosi.

Jiang Suqing's nails dug into her flesh as she ordered the old man, “Kill him for me! Kill him! This beast actually dared to hit my son! And hit him so many times! My precious son is the apple of my eye! As a mother, I wish I could go up there and kill that dog bastard! Kill him for me!”

The old man cackled, “Madam, rest assured, Young Master is wearing the Witchcraft System treasure, the Rebound Armor. All the punches that little bastard threw at Young Master are stored, and with the Myriad Poison Pearl's enhancement, even a Level 5 combatant might not be able to withstand it. He is sure to die!”

“Then do it! Kill him now!” Jiang Suqing shrieked.

The old man raised his hands and crossed them over his chest.

“Now, it's time for Young Master to fight back, and it's time for that little bastard to experience the terror of the Witchcraft System!”

Just as the old man crossed his arms, Yang Haosi, mimicking the old man, also crossed his arms over his chest, giving Xin Ge a cold smirk.

“If that's all you've got, then I won't play with you anymore! Die!”

An earthy yellow aura, mixed with a purple aura, erupted from Yang Haosi's body.

It directly poured into Xin Ge's chest.

The fierce and powerful aura directly knocked Xin Ge back, sending him flying like tumbleweed in the wind.

This scene drew gasps of surprise from the audience below.

“Holy crap! What the hell is that?”

“It's the Witchcraft System Talent's Rebound spell! And a high-level treasure that works with the Rebound spell! This treasure is at least a Rank 9! Maybe even Rank 10! Having a family background really makes a difference!”

“No wonder Yang Haosi took all those hits earlier! He was waiting for this!”

“Xin Ge hit so hard just now, and now all that power is stacked up and returned in full, and it's even mixed with Witchcraft System Gu poison!”

Knock-off Underwear Bro, Zhang Qiang, stared intently, then burst out laughing.

“Haha! Xin Ge is finished! He hit for so long, and all that power is now returned in full! Young Master Yang's family is truly generous! He's wearing high-level treasures!”

“Young Master Yang is awesome!”

Zhang Qiang grinned and said, “See what I told you! Admission scores don't mean everything, do they?”

Shi Tailang turned his head, “Can you stop barking?”

Zhang Qiang shrugged, rubbed his swollen cheek, and said gleefully, “What? Is there anything wrong with what I said? Your Xin Ge is dead!”

Li Bao'er turned her head, tilted it, and said crisply, “Bark again, and we'll go to the Life-and-Death Arena!”

Zhang Qiang licked his lips and instantly quieted down, whispering to the person next to him, “A good man doesn't fight with women! These people are really something. The fact that Xin Ge is dead is right in front of them, but they still want to argue!”

Yang Haosi's smile turned frantic, “Trash is just trash!”

Jiang Suqing, seeing Xin Ge get knocked flying, also clapped excitedly, “Well done! My precious son finally killed that pauper's descendant! Hmph, anyone who dares to block my son's path must die!”

Hua Qiang smashed the windowsill with his fist, “You (expletive) (expletive), I (expletive) your (expletive), you dog (expletive) cheated, I (expletive) your ancestors!”

Sun Bijun's crochet needle paused, and her anger poured out, the office window humming.

Xu Boshan's hand trembled, and he quietly stepped back half a step, pushing Zhuge Heng towards Old Woman Sun.

Zhuge Heng had his hands in his pockets, a smile on his face.

Just as the discussions were buzzing below the Life-and-Death Arena, Yang Haosi walked towards Xin Ge, intending to tear him to shreds.

But unexpectedly, a cough suddenly sounded.

Xin Ge rubbed his chest, sprang up with a carp-like flip, and eyed Yang Haosi greedily.

“My goodness! My treasure is so fierce! Double rebound?”

Yang Haosi's face instantly changed, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

The cheering Jiang Suqing also froze, watching Xin Ge, who had stood up again, through the bead, “This? How is this possible! How could he not be dead?”

The old man was also stunned, “This is impossible! Could it be that he has some defensive treasure?”

Sun Bijun looked at Xin Ge with uncertainty, then glanced at Zhuge Heng, who was grinning, seemingly having anticipated this. Zhuge Heng explained, “This kid has an SSS-level Strength Talent. Strength Talent users have invincible bodies and very strong self-healing abilities. His self-healing ability is the strongest I've ever seen!”

The clamoring discussions below the Life-and-Death Arena also quieted down at that instant.

“He… he's not dead?”

Knock-off Underwear Bro stared blankly at the stage.

“How is that possible? That last hit, even a Level 5 combatant would be severely injured if not dead!”

Shi Tailang exclaimed in surprise, “Haha, Xin Ge is fine! Xin Ge is awesome!”

Jiang Xiaocha clasped her hands over her chest, praying nervously, and whispered in her heart, “I'd give up a year of my life for my brother to win!”

Jiang Suqing shrieked at the old man, “Do it! Kill him for me!”

The old man heard this and soothed her, “Madam, don't rush. That little bastard clearly has no treasure to resist the Witchcraft System. Look at his pale face; he was badly injured by that last hit. He's definitely putting on a brave face right now. With me here, with the Myriad Poison Pearl and the Rebound Armor, let him attack Young Master a few more times, and Young Master will definitely kill that little thing today!”

Yang Haosi clenched his fist, “I'm not going to believe I can't kill you!”

As he spoke, Yang Haosi pointed at Xin Ge, “If you don't attack me, your whole body will rot!”

Xin Ge clearly felt as if he was entangled by something, and his skin was already starting to ache.

He had just taken that hit head-on, thankfully he had that scale that resisted physical attacks, and his self-healing ability was terrifyingly strong, which allowed him to fully recover. However, he deliberately made his face pale, still needing to show the outside world that he was very weak after taking that hit.

But the opponent's Witchcraft System Talent was very sinister.

Xin Ge had also checked the marketplace for Witchcraft System defensive treasures these past few days, but Witchcraft System defensive treasures were ridiculously expensive.

A Rank 4 Witchcraft System defensive treasure dared to ask for eight figures. Xin Ge asked the shop owner if he could get a discount since he was a student, but the bastard shop owner said not even an animal could get one.

He did have a Witchcraft System resisting treasure in his spatial ring.

It was just that thing, whether worn inside or outside, was embarrassing... Seeing both sides show signs of wanting to attack again, the discussions below the Life-and-Death Arena exploded.

Knock-off Underwear Bro spoke eloquently, “Xin Ge had a treasure to withstand it just now, but looking at him, he doesn't have a Witchcraft System defensive treasure, so he won't last long. He's sure to die today!”

Shi Tailang turned his head and said fiercely, “Shut your ass! What do you know, you idiot!”

Zhang Qiang's supporters immediately shouted, “Our Brother Qiang doesn't know, but you do? What a joker! This is truly hilarious! How many battles has our Brother Qiang been through? Our Brother Qiang has killed more enemies than you've seen! Have you forgotten how our Brother Qiang got the name Ku Cha'r Ge?”

Hearing this, Zhang Qiang raised his hand and said, “A good man doesn't boast about past glories! There's no need to talk about those things. Let's focus on watching the stage and how Xin Ge gets killed, to shut some people's mouths with reality!”

Yang Haosi opened his mouth and spat a cloud of purple poisonous mist at Xin Ge.

“If you don't attack me, your internal organs will burn!”

Xin Ge dodged the poisonous mist.

Feeling the pain inside and out of his body.

He glanced at the thousands of teachers and students below the Life-and-Death Arena.

Xin Ge took a deep breath.

With a grimace and a stomp of his foot, he publicly put on the red triangular underwear embroidered with mandarin ducks.
