Chapter 109 · Volume 1

Sorry, When I Make a Move, Sparring Doesn't Exist!

The speaker was a burly man in his forties, wearing a black combat suit. He blurred into motion, charging forward.
Xu Mo could see clearly from his level description that this was a Level 51 Scavenger.
His speed was immense. With the full physical power of a Rank 5 Scavenger exploding, he moved like a shell fired from a cannon. His right hand, hooked like a steel claw, lunged toward “Bai Feifei’s” shoulder!
He didn't hold back at all.
Though he spoke of sparring and testing, his intent was clearly vicious.
But someone else was even more vicious.
Xu Mo stood rooted to the spot. When the fist was less than a finger’s breadth away, his body suddenly shifted, dropping low!
By a hair’s breadth, the fist whistled past his ear.
At the same time, his right leg lashed out like a lightning strike, his foot slamming brutally into the side of the opponent’s knee!
Crack!
A crisp snap of bone echoed through the training hall, agonizingly clear.
“Argh!”
The burly man screamed as he lost his balance, falling to one knee. His right knee joint was turned outward at a completely impossible angle.
Blood instantly soaked through his trousers, staining them a deep crimson.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
The elites’ eyes widened as they instinctively took a step back, while the students of the Elite Class stood there with their mouths agape.
No one had expected this sudden turn of events or this outcome.
This was a Rank 5 Scavenger—how could he fail to withstand a single kick from a Rank 4?
Even underestimating an opponent shouldn't lead to this!
“You!”
A thug from another family rushed out, pointing at “Bai Feifei” and shouting harshly:
“It was a simple spar over a minor argument in a school, and yet you dared to use such heavy-handed force!”
“This is a crime! This is intentional assault! You are completely unfit to be a teacher!”
Another person stepped out to stand beside him. Both wore the uniforms of Rank 5 Scavengers, their auras erupting simultaneously.
“This is no longer a simple verbal conflict.”
“Apprehend her and hand her over to law enforcement!”
“Sparring?” Xu Mo listened to their words, his smile gradually becoming twisted.
“Sorry, when I make a move, sparring doesn't exist!”
With that, he lifted his foot. Just as the burly man in front of him tried to get up, Xu Mo landed another kick squarely on that same injured knee!
Punishing the recovery, pressuring the wake-up!
Thud!
“Aaagh! Damn you!”
The bone shattered even more thoroughly. The man’s scream reached a different pitch entirely.
The sight made everyone nearby cringe in sympathy—it was simply too brutal.
Xu Mo was not Bai Feifei. Though they shared the same body, he was far more ruthless, more decisive, and utterly merciless.
Xu Mo looked up at the other Scavengers stepping forward and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
“Hahaha!”
The laughter echoed through the training hall, sounding incredibly arrogant.
“If you want to gang up on me, just be direct about it. No need for this self-righteous act.”
“Perfect. I’ll use you all for a live demonstration!”
The two Rank 5 Scavengers looked at each other and didn't hold back, attacking at the same time.
One aimed for “Bai Feifei’s” lower body from the left, while the other targeted her upper body from the right.
Their coordination was seamless; they were clearly partners who fought together frequently.
But in Xu Mo’s eyes, this level of teamwork was mere child’s play.
He ducked, dodging the kick from the left, and drove his right elbow into that person’s shin.
Upon impact, accompanied by the sound of cracking bone, the man let out a muffled groan.
At the same time, the fist from the right arrived. Without even looking up, Xu Mo raised his left hand, catching the opponent’s wrist and twisting it violently.
“Ah!”
Xu Mo could see their weaknesses clearly. Every strike was a move designed to break bones and sever tendons.
The expressions on the elites’ faces were hideous; several had already begun to retreat.
The bodyguards and thugs frowned, and for a moment, no one else stepped forward.
Two-on-one was already embarrassing enough, and besides, stepping up now was genuinely dangerous!
The Inner City had rules: no one was allowed to use Word Souls easily except for the enforcement team.
Thus, at this moment, the battle was a pure clash of physical power.
But in such a clash, how could they possibly compete with Xu Mo?
Below the level of an Edgerunner, Bai Feifei’s current physicality was almost at the very top tier!
Standing in the crowd, Ye Yu watched “Bai Feifei’s” back, her heart racing.
She’s still so strong... no, she’s even stronger than she was back in the coal mine!
And...
“Everyone, pay attention,” Ye Yu said softly, her pupils trembling.
“She... she really seems to be giving us a demonstration!”
Hearing this, the students were stunned.
They finally realized that the punches and kicks “Bai Feifei” was using were the exact same movements she had taught them yesterday!
Only, they were more fluid, the power was more terrifying, and the opponents had been replaced by Rank 5 Scavengers.
Of course they were the same. Bai Feifei’s combat movements were originally learned from Xu Mo. What she taught and how he fought were naturally identical.
As they watched the figure moving like a thunderbolt in the center of the hall, the students’ gazes gradually became focused and intent.
“Is it... is it possible for us to reach this level too?”
“Using Rank 5 Scavengers for a practical demonstration? ...That’s too insane.”
“Is Teacher Bai really just a Rank 4 Scavenger?”
Xu Mo, hearing the students’ discussion behind him, was enjoying himself. In his excitement, he mocked the two men in front of him.
“Is that all?”
“Weren't you going to teach this ‘thug’ a lesson? Didn't you say I was a mere Rank 4 Scavenger?”
“Surely your families aren't entirely made of rookies like you.”
“No wonder you all start crying like babies when I expel a few defective products. It turns out your own family members are just as incompetent.”
His words were so biting that the eyes of his opponents turned bloodshot with rage.
However, it seemed no one could actually refute him.
After all, the combat ability Xu Mo was displaying was simply too shocking.
Rank 4?
You call this Rank 4?
What kind of Rank 4 Scavenger can shatter a Rank 5’s knee with a single kick?
Even if they managed to take her down in the end, her performance right now was enough to prove her overwhelming strength.
They could only grit their teeth, desperate to win first and talk later.
Even the bodyguard who had previously lost the use of a leg stood up with bloodshot eyes, lunging toward “Bai Feifei.”
Three-on-one.
Or rather, two-and-a-half-on-one.
“Haha, watch closely!” Xu Mo suddenly shouted, his gaze becoming a bit more serious.
Ye Yu’s expression was intent as she watched the battle, actually taking a few steps forward.
The Elite Class students looked at each other and also stepped forward in unison, as if they were truly watching an instructional video.
“Actually, there’s no real need for a dedicated combat teacher. There’s not much to teach about live combat besides three points.”
“Faster!”
He threw a punch, his fist crossing with his opponent’s. He was a step ahead, shattering the man’s nose bridge.
“More accurate!”
Under the guidance of the Killing Machine, he threw a back-kick without even looking. It landed precisely on the solar plexus of the man behind him, without shifting an inch.
“More ruthless!”
As the words fell, Xu Mo saw his two main opponents retreat in injury. With practiced ease, he delivered yet another kick to the knee of the first man who had attacked him.
