The students of Class Zero seated below also couldn't help but panic. Wei Xiaofeng anxiously said, "This is bad! That's a five-ringed Soul King. Once he hits, Wang Jinxi and Tang Wulin won't be able to withstand it!"
Clutching his fists, Zhang Yangzi said, "What do we do, what do we do! The teachers and students of this academy are so despicable!"
Xie Xie's gaze shifted to the side as he instinctively blurted out, "Teacher Xu, should we... Eh? Where's Teacher Xu?"
Upon hearing this, the rest of them realized that Xu Sheng, who had been standing by their side, had vanished...
...
On the stage, a teacher at the Soul King level was just a step away from Wang Jinxi, his hand readying a precision poison attack aimed at his chest, a cruel smirk on his lips as he said, "Trash from East Sea Academy, go to hell!"
It was at that moment a voice filled with chilling coldness rang beside his ear...
"Isn't it a bit presumptuous to attack a student of Class Zero without my permission?"
The figure speaking was radiating an imposing pressure!
It was none other than Xu Sheng, who had been beneath the stage just a few seconds earlier!
Hearing this sudden voice, the teacher at the Soul King level trembled violently, his eyes filled with shock. "What?"
How could a mere East Sea Academy teacher appear beside him so silently!
He hadn't felt any soul power fluctuation whatsoever before!
But even so, it was already too late. Unless this teacher from East Sea Academy was courting death by trying to resist his soul skill head-on!
With this thought, he didn't stop his attack but chose to continue bombarding Wang Jinxi, even showing Teacher Xu a taunting smile...
Provoked, Xu Sheng's dark eyes narrowed slightly, and his body suddenly emitted an unparalleled oppressive force that swiftly enveloped his antagonist!
This caused the opponent's hand, tainted with poison, to halt mere millimeters from Wang Jinxi's chest...
It was as if the entire space had been frozen, unable to advance any further!
Seeing his limbs not responding at all, the teacher's eyes widened in disbelief. "Such... such terrifying pressure... My body... I can't move!"
In that instant, his heart flooded with a feeling known as fear, spreading rapidly...
Merely with his oppressive force, he had rendered a Soul King immobile. Such strength was at least above that of a Soul Sage!!
Wang Jinxi, who hadn't felt the slightest pain, also opened his eyes in confusion...
He immediately saw the Soul King powerhouse frozen before him, especially the hand infused with terrifying power that was just about to hit his chest!
Wang Jinxi hastily retreated several steps, and only when he was completely out of the attack's range did he let out a sigh of relief...
Tang Wulin hurried over as well, asking with urgency, "Wang Jinxi, are you alright?"
Wang Jinxi shook his head, "I'm fine, thankfully Teacher Xu arrived in time."
After saying this, he looked at Xu Sheng with great gratitude...
This was the second time the latter had rescued him from a dire situation!
Xu Sheng simply said, "Wang Jinxi, Tang Wulin, you guys go down first. I'll deal with this one."
Tang Wulin and Wang Jinxi exchanged glances and nodded, then swiftly left the dueling stage...
After they had left the stage, Xu Sheng's ink-colored eyes finally turned to the people sitting in the spectator seats, and he coldly said, "Doesn't the Skysea Alliance owe our East Sea Academy an explanation for this matter?"
As these words fell, the members of the Skysea Alliance and the teachers from Shrek Academy in the spectator seats all snapped back to reality...
One of the members stood up and hurriedly tried to soothe the situation, "Um... Teacher from East Sea Academy, since your students were not hurt, please let the Skysea Alliance handle this matter, we will definitely give a perfect explanation to these two students!"
Another member nodded in agreement, "That's right, we bear a certain responsibility for such an occurrence, so please believe that we will not shield anyone who violates the competition rules!"
Upon hearing this, the students below voiced their admiration, "As expected of the Skysea Alliance! They indeed do not disappoint us in this respect!"
"Hmph, how despicable and shameless are the teachers and students of that academy! As a teacher, to actually attempt to go onstage and kill a student!"
"That's right, if it wasn't for the timely arrival of the teacher from East Sea Academy, I'm afraid that the male student would have been corroded by the venom into a pile of dry bones by now!"
"They must be strictly punished; otherwise, which teams would dare to come and compete seriously in the Skysea Alliance's competition in the future? You never know when a Soul King level powerhouse might suddenly appear!"
Hearing these words, Xu Sheng simply glanced at this Soul King level teacher...
However, the latter's cheeks suddenly turned frantic, and he licked his lips, coldly saying, "Do you really think the Skysea Alliance can do anything to me? Once the competition is over, I will personally go to East Sea Academy and kill off the students you taught one by one!"
"Hahahahaha!!"
Having committed an act against the principles of the competition, pursuing the matter would certainly affect the reputation of the academy...
So, it was better to enrage the man in front of him, as even if he died, he wanted to ensure that he and the East Sea Academy would not have an easy time in the future!!
This brief statement made Xu Sheng's ink-colored eyes grow several degrees colder...
He said in an exceedingly calm tone, "You want to enrage me? Well, you have indeed succeeded!"
Realizing that the man in front of him had been provoked, the teacher spoke again, "What? Are you angry now? Not only do I want to kill your students, but I also want to dismember them piece by piece!"
"Or do you dare to kill me in front of everyone?"
His words were full of thick mockery...
Xu Sheng did not speak further, and immediately grabbed the man's throat, lifting him into the air with brute force...
The teacher, being choked, coughed violently a few times and said in a broken voice, "Cough cough... do it... if you have the guts, kill me... you useless..."
As the pressure increased, one could vaguely see that the teacher's forehead broke out in fierce blue veins, and even his face turned an extremely red...
Seeing that Xu Sheng was indeed going to kill the man, the members of the Skysea Alliance could not just stand by...
They all burst forth with soul power and charged quickly towards Xu Sheng...
While still remembering to shout out to stop him, "Teacher, stop! You must not kill him!"
If Xu Sheng actually went through with killing the teacher, the situation would become thoroughly troublesome!
However, as he heard this, Xu Sheng simply glanced at them expressionlessly and then... his hand clenched violently...
"Crack!"
A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out, and the teacher Xu Sheng had gripped, along with his head and limbs, convulsed fiercely before dangling lifelessly...
