"Gotta keep a low profile."
Mu Yuan strolled forward, hands clasped behind his back.
Mu Chen watched the annoying figure ahead, feeling speechless.
Before he'd even reached the Perception Stage, Mu Yuan acted like he was invincible in the academy.
Now that he was in the Spirit Movement Stage, he was suddenly supposed to be low-key?
Could he be any more shameless?
Suddenly, a commotion erupted ahead.
Several somewhat bedraggled figures ran out from the academy gates.
They scanned their surroundings with anxious expressions.
"Luo Dong, what happened?"
Mu Chen immediately recognized these figures and was slightly taken aback.
Hearing the voice, the group quickly turned their heads, their faces lighting up with surprise.
"Chen-ge!"
They were all students from the East Academy, and usually got along well with Mu Chen and his friends.
Some of the students were even loyal fans of Mu Yuan.
"Chen-ge, Yuan-ge, it's great to see you both. Hurry and help Su Ling, he's been beaten by Mu Yuan!"
The youth named Luo Dong said urgently.
"Mu Yuan?"
The surrounding academy students were startled when they heard the name.
That was the second-ranked student from the Earth Rank of Northern Spirit Academy!
"Did Mu Yuan provoke him first?"
Mu Chen's face darkened, and even Mu Yuan frowned slightly.
Su Ling wasn't the type to cause trouble for no reason.
"That's right."
"Mu Yuan heard about what happened between Brother Yuan and Senior Hong Ling, and he started saying some nasty things about Brother Yuan around the academy."
Luo Dong's eyes flicked towards Mu Yuan as he spoke.
"Tell me what he said."
Mu Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Mu Yuan said Brother Yuan was a frog dreaming of eating swan meat, and that he was a coward..."
"When Su Ling heard those words, he couldn't stand it, so he took us from East Academy to argue with Mu Yuan. Who knew that Mu Yuan would just start fighting? Those guys from West Academy are really getting more and more arrogant."
Luo Dong clenched his fists angrily.
"Lead the way."
Mu Yuan's voice was a bit cold.
This made Mu Chen, who was next to him, jump slightly.
He knew that Brother Yuan was a little angry this time.
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Luo Dong and the other few students were stunned, then looked at Mu Chen and said uncertainly:
"Brother Mu Chen, can just the few of us do it? Mu Yuan has gathered several of the top ten students from the Earth Rank."
"Don't worry."
Mu Chen patted Luo Dong on the shoulder and smiled.
"Brother Yuan is at the middle Spirit Movement Stage now. Even in the Heaven Rank, he's among the best.
Taking care of those rabble like Mu Yuan should be a piece of cake."
Seeing Mu Chen's confident smile, Luo Dong and the others exchanged glances.
Finally, they gritted their teeth and nodded.
Bam!
A low thud echoed, and Su Ling's figure was sent flying back like a kite with a broken string.
"The East Academy kids these days really have no respect. A bunch of them haven't even reached the Spirit Movement Stage, yet they dare to yell in front of me, Mu Yuan. Truly overestimating their abilities."
A black-clothed youth, arms crossed, gazed with a sneer at the dozen or so people on the ground, who were in a sorry state.
The commotion here had already spread throughout the surrounding area.
"It's the people from West Academy."
Many students surged towards the scene, their eyes gleaming with interest.
Beside the black-clothed youth stood two other youths of similar age. They also wore sneers, and their eyes were filled with unconcealed arrogance.
"It's Mu Yuan, Xue Dong, and Xiao Kun. They're all formidable figures in the top ten of the West Academy's Earth Rank. Especially Mu Yuan, he's second only to Liu Yang in this year's West Academy."
Someone quickly recognized the three West Academy students, their hearts slightly tightening, and they understood why they had come.
But they could only remain silent, as there were obviously very few in the Northern Spirit Academy's Earth Rank who dared to provoke the three individuals before them.
"Bah! Mu Yuan, you're being smug. I know you're both jealous and afraid of Yuan-ge. This time, while Yuan-ge wasn't at the academy, you secretly spread rumors that were unfavorable to him. In fact, you, the second-ranked in the Earth Rank, are just a coward in front of Yuan-ge."
Su Ling spat.
His words caused the veins on Mu Yuan's forehead to bulge, clearly hitting a nerve and making him furious.
"Mu Yuan?"
He was indeed jealous of Mu Yuan.
Mu Yuan and Mu Yuan, although the names sounded similar, the characters were different.
But in the academy, the first person people thought of was Mu Yuan.
Mu Yuan's reputation far surpassed his own; his position as second in the Earth Rank seemed utterly meaningless.
Even Senior Sister Hong Ling had always favored him.
That Mu Yuan was clearly a waste, so why?
"Relying on his status as the son of the Mu Domain, he's been carefree for three years. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have lasted this long in the Academy."
"I'm quite looking forward to seeing how he performs in this Academy Trials."
"Let's hope he doesn't run away before the fight; otherwise, Brother Liu will be very disappointed."
The youth behind Mu Yuan, named Xiao Kun, sneered sarcastically.
"And Mu Chen, I can't wait to see that guy get defeated by Brother Liu."
Another young man snorted coldly. He was Xue Dong, the one who had lost to Mu Chen.
"No need for your concern. You should be more worried about yourselves and how you'll fare in the upcoming Academy Trials. If you perform too poorly, you'll be very embarrassed."
A cold voice suddenly rang out.
Su Ling quickly turned his head and saw several familiar faces he hadn't seen in a while.
"Brother Yuan, Brother Chen!"
Su Ling was overjoyed.
"You've been wronged. I'll get revenge for you."
Mu Yuan smiled slightly at him.
When Mu Yuan and Mu Chen appeared, Mu Yuan's face turned serious. Clearly, they were wary of the two brothers.
"Hmph! What a big mouth."
"Mu Chen, I know you're capable, and you've already reached the Spirit Movement Stage. However, I also entered the early Spirit Movement Stage seven days ago, and Xue Dong and Xiao Kun here are also on the verge of entering the Spirit Movement Stage."
Mu Yuan regained his composure, thinking of his own lineup.
Xue Dong and Xiao Kun, hearing this, immediately flashed a fierce light in their eyes, and the fear in their hearts diminished significantly.
Right, even if Mu Chen was in the early Spirit Movement Stage, did he think he could take on three of them?
"Mu Yuan, I'd like to see what you're going to do?"
Mu Yuan stared at Mu Yuan, a hint of mockery on his face.
The reason he used to fear Mu Yuan was purely due to his strength.
Although Mu Yuan himself had no cultivation, he could easily gather a group of strong students.
Back then, he hadn't broken through to the Spirit Movement Stage, and facing a group of students with Perception Stage strength, he could only suffer the consequences.
But now, he was no longer the same.
The Spirit Movement Stage, especially after cultivating a Spirit Technique and converting spiritual energy into spiritual power, caused his strength to surge several times over.
"Today, I'm just giving them a small lesson."
"The affairs of the West Academy are none of your East Academy's business to interfere with."
"Mu Yuan, if you still want to get involved, I can only apologize to Brother Liu and give you a lesson first."
Mu Yuan sneered, his arrogance growing.
Some of the East Academy students around were furious but dared not speak out.
