Chapter 41: Chapter 41: The Silent Wildcat
"Ding Dong!"
"Congratulations! Two of the Shrek Seven Devils are willing to accept your guidance, awarding you 2 skill points and 16,000 soul power."
"Ding Dong!"
"The system kindly reminds you that the hidden task completion is now two-sevenths. Keep up the good work! The more Shrek Seven Devils you teach, the greater the final rewards."
"Ding Dong!"
"Congratulations, your soul power has increased to level 36 (800/106,000)."
"My brother leveled up again?!"
Mu Chen was thrilled. In just a day, he managed to advance a level, and his soul power had now reached level 36.
"Alright. Put on your clothes. Tell the dean tomorrow that you don't need to participate in other training. Rest for a day and continue tomorrow night!" Mu Chen instructed.
"Okay." Ning Rongrong nodded, putting on her clothes. After being tempered by Mu Chen, she felt a stinging sensation all over her body.
Watching Mu Chen and Xiao Wu walk ahead, Ning Rongrong jogged a few steps to catch up.
"Hmm?"
As they walked through the forest, Mu Chen frowned, his gaze falling in a direction. With his exceptional soul perception, he could sense someone in the woods.
"Ding Dong!"
"Congratulations! Hidden mission triggered: Teach the disobedient wildcat a lesson."
**First Soul Skill: Nether Spike**
A dark claw emerged from an obscure tree trunk.
"Watch out!"
"Watch out!"
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu shouted in alarm.
With a slight shift, Mu Chen had already activated his Sharingan. The shadow's first strike missed, and the claw changed direction, attacking him again.
The shadow was swift, and if it were Ning Rongrong or even Xiao Wu, they might have been caught off guard. However, with his Sharingan, Mu Chen had already discerned and anticipated the attack from the airflow.
*Whoosh*
The black claw barely grazed Mu Chen's chest.
*Bang*
Before the shadow could attack again, Mu Chen kicked it away.
**Second Soul Skill: Nether Hundred Claws**
Failing to hit, the shadow's second soul ring glowed. Spinning, it launched another attack at Mu Chen.
"Again?!"
Mu Chen frowned, suddenly extending his hand, with soul power surging around him. A powerful wind pressure formed in his palm.
**Mysterious Low-Level Combat Skill: Flame Spitting Palm**
*Slap*
The shadow, unprepared for this sudden attack, was thrown backward.
**Mysterious Low-Level Combat Skill: Grasping Palm**
Before the shadow could recover, it was still airborne when Mu Chen's grasping palm exerted a different suction force, pulling the shadow toward him.
All this happened in the blink of an eye.
As the shadow flew in front of Mu Chen, he was furious. If not for his quick reflexes, his throat would have been slit.
Thinking of this, Mu Chen swiftly grabbed the shadow's hands.
"Zhu Zhuqing!"
"Zhu Zhuqing!"
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong exclaimed.
The shadow was none other than the Nether Spirit Cat, Zhu Zhuqing.
Compared to Zhu Zhuqing's sneak attack, Ning Rongrong was more shocked by Mu Chen's soul skills. Without summoning his martial spirit, he could still use soul skills. What did this signify?
It meant that the soul skills Mu Chen used earlier were also self-created!
Amazing!
Ning Rongrong was utterly awed by Mu Chen's talent!
**Soul Power +666**
Due to Ning Rongrong's astonishment, Mu Chen gained 666 emotion points.
"I must return to the academy's rear mountain tomorrow night to continue his training. I should also learn the soul skills he used earlier," Ning Rongrong thought.
In her mind, if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan could acquire Mu Chen's soul skills, their strength would skyrocket.
"Let me go!" Zhu Zhuqing demanded.
"You dare to sneak attack me. If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll become unruly!" Mu Chen replied.
"What are you going to do?" Zhu Zhuqing asked fearfully.
*Slap*
In a flash, Mu Chen appeared behind Zhu Zhuqing. He lifted his foot, kicking her behind the knee, forcing her to lean forward.
Then, Mu Chen swiftly pinned Zhu Zhuqing to the ground, face down.
Poor Zhu Zhuqing, with her hands restrained by Mu Chen, couldn't escape.
The most terrifying moment for Zhu Zhuqing was when Mu Chen sat on her waist, his back facing her head.
"What are you doing? Let me go!" Zhu Zhuqing yelled.
"I said, tonight, I'm going to teach this little wildcat a lesson," Mu Chen said with a mischievous grin.
*Slap*
Mu Chen's hand landed on Zhu Zhuqing's bottom.
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned. Her backside had been smacked by a man.
**Soul Power +2000**
*Slap*
Another crisp sound rang out in Zhu Zhuqing's dazed gaze.
**Soul Power +1800**
*Slap*
Zhu Zhuqing realized that Mu Chen was punishing her like a misbehaving child.
**Soul Power +1900**
"You... let me go. I'm from the noble Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire," Zhu Zhuqing said, abandoning her usual distaste for name-dropping to escape the embarrassing punishment.
"The Zhu family? Even if you were from the Star Luo Empire's royal family, it wouldn't stop me today!" Mu Chen replied unfazed.
*Slap*
**Soul Power +1700**
"If you treat me like this, Dai Mubai won't let you go," Zhu Zhuqing said desperately.
"Dai Mubai? Hah, a defeated opponent. Even if you were the Pope Bibi Dong, if you angered me, I'd still strike," Mu Chen replied disdainfully.
*Slap*
**Soul Power +1500**
*Slap*
**Soul Power +1300**
*Slap*
**Soul Power +800**
...
With each smack, Mu Chen gained considerable soul power. Initially, it was 2000 points, but as Zhu Zhuqing became numb, her emotions dulled, and the soul power gained decreased. Yet, it remained substantial, still in the triple digits.
"Xiao Wu, aren't you going to stop him?" Ning Rongrong asked quietly.
"Why should I? This Zhu Zhuqing really needed a lesson. If Mu Chen hadn't reacted quickly, the consequences would have been dire," Xiao Wu replied nonchalantly.
"Yeah." Ning Rongrong nodded, admitting to herself that if Zhu Zhuqing's attack had been directed at her, she might have been severely injured. Zhu Zhuqing indeed needed discipline. Still, Mu Chen's method seemed... seemed... seemed too audacious!
