Chu Nan let out a cold snort, reaching out with one hand towards Zhang Baimei, "Zhang Baimei, I originally didn't want any entanglements with you, you brought this on yourself."

"The bet was your proposal, how can you break it at will? Come with me!"

Zhang Baimei's eyes revealed fear, was she really going to become Chu Nan's maid?

She glanced around, locking her gaze on one person, pleading, "Senior Brother Zhou, I don't want to be his maid, please save me!"

Chu Nan frowned, and at that moment, a gentleman in white came over, saying, "Chu Nan, though there is a wager between you two, this is the Battle Academy, how can you make her your maid in such a place!"

"How about giving Zhou Mou some face and letting Zhang Baimei go, I promise she won't trouble you again!"

Chu Nan used his spiritual sense to probe the newcomer, discovering that his cultivation had surprisingly reached the fourth level of the Yang Wheel, which was indeed quite remarkable, but he was not afraid.

"Who are you, why should I give you face!" Chu Nan said with disdain.

Upon hearing Chu Nan's words, Young Master Zhou showed a hint of arrogance, then said, "My name is Zhou Yuan, before joining the Battle Academy, I was a disciple of the Canglan Sect, which holds considerable strength here."

"I believe you wouldn't want to offend our entire Canglan Sect, would you?"

Chu Nan immediately understood, the Cyan Profound Martial Academy's disciples came from various forces, including families, commoners, and sects.

After joining the academy, these people would naturally group together based on their affiliations.

For example, Canglan Sect members would unite, Cyan Profound Sect disciples would group up, and even the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect had its alliances.

Everyone cooperated, moving forward and retreating together, enabling better footing in the Cyan Profound Martial Academy.

If you offend one, you offend their entire group, leading to bloody retaliation!

However, Chu Nan was not afraid, to him, what was a mere Canglan Sect, so he said, "Is the Canglan Sect that impressive, weren't they the first to be eliminated in the recent Cyan Profound competition?"

Zhou Yuan's face immediately turned terribly grim upon hearing this, as he knew all too well the reason why Canglan Sect was the first eliminated, and Chu Nan's words had stirred the anger buried in his heart.

"Chu Nan, I'm advising you on behalf of Canglan Sect in good faith, I hope you don't fail to appreciate it."

"Remember, this isn't a request, it's a command, release Zhang Baimei immediately, or our Canglan Sect will not spare you!"

Zhou Yuan directly threatened Chu Nan, clearly not taking him seriously.

Hearing such a blatant threat, Chu Nan casually kicked Zhang Baimei into the corner, then said, "I've decided on Zhang Baimei, no one can stop me!"

"If you want to save her, then make a move, if you can win against me, Zhang Baimei is yours!"

Faced with Chu Nan's disdainful attitude, Zhou Yuan was furious, a powerful aura erupted within him like a roaring beast.

Though the rules prohibited casual fighting, the penalty wasn't severe unless it resulted in death, so Zhou Yuan was more eager to teach Chu Nan a lesson than worry about the consequences!

Chu Nan was surprised by Zhou Yuan's aura eruption, this guy was probably not yet forty, yet he had the fourth level of the Yang Wheel, appearing even stronger than the Yang Wheel martial artists he had encountered while fleeing Songyang County.

He felt that if he didn't use the Desolate Profound Transformation, he might not be able to take down this person.

But this didn't make Chu Nan apprehensive, instead, his eyes flashed with intense fighting spirit, he wanted to defeat Zhou Yuan without using Desolate Profound Transformation!

Zhou Yuan was also cautious of Chu Nan's strength, knowing that defeating a third-level Yang Wheel so easily was unheard of, making him go all out.

Wielding a long blade, he swept towards Chu Nan with lightning speed.

"Senior Brother Zhou has made a move, he's at the fourth level of the Yang Wheel, though Chu Nan has some talent, he's overestimating himself."

"Chu Nan is simply too arrogant, wanting Zhang Baimei to be his maid, he deserves a lesson from Senior Brother Zhou!"

The majority were dissatisfied with Chu Nan's intent to make Zhang Baimei his maid.

Be it anger or envy, they were eager to see Chu Nan, who attempted to desecrate their goddess, suffer a significant setback!

As the long blade approached, a fierce glint flashed in Chu Nan's eyes, the Blood Pattern Sword appeared, its sharp gleam making the hearts of onlookers tighten.

They felt as though this sword had slain tens of thousands, making it daunting.

"Cyan Mountain Radiant Sun Sword!" With the explosion of flame Martial Intent, the Blood Pattern Sword blazed with intense flames, slashing towards Zhou Yuan.

Clang clang!

Sword and blade clashed, emitting a piercing metallic collision.

The two relentlessly exchanged powerful martial skills, beginning their fight in the Mission Hall.

After exchanging dozens of strikes, they were evenly matched.

Zhou Yuan's face was extremely grim, how could he, at the fourth level of the Yang Wheel, end up in a tie with someone at the second level, it was truly unacceptable.

Yet Chu Nan was exhilarated, he hadn't encountered such an evenly matched opponent for a long time.

His enemies were either too strong or too weak, but Zhou Yuan's strength was just right.

"Having absorbed the vital energy of the Giant Strength Demon Bear, along with several Yuan Stones, I've long reached the peak of the second level of the Yang Wheel, perfect for advancing to the third level through this battle!"

Chu Nan wielded his attacks with ease, his assault unrelenting, integrating various martial skills and Martial Intent seamlessly, as if commanding with limbs.

Zhou Yuan likewise unleashed his cultivation repeatedly, leveraging his significantly superior power against his opponent, yet not yielding an inch.

The entire Mission Hall was dumbfounded, unable to believe Chu Nan could go toe-to-toe with Zhou Yuan.

"Chu Nan, if you withstand this move, I'll leave immediately!" Zhou Yuan's eyes flashed fiercely, no longer holding back, his momentum surged once more.

"Profound Tier Martial Skill, Celestial Spirit Demon-Slaying Saber!"

The blade vibrated, brilliant golden light flourished, Zhou Yuan's aura exploded like a storm, the terrifying sword qi swept forth, cleaving towards Chu Nan.

This sight caused everyone in the Mission Hall to retreat, their expressions increasingly horrified, "Profound Tier Martial Skill, Senior Brother Zhou actually used a Profound Tier Martial Skill!"

"Chu Nan just joined the academy, it's impossible for him to possess a Profound Tier Martial Skill, even if he doesn't die, he'll be severely wounded this time."

"Forcing Senior Brother Zhou to such lengths, it's enough for him to boast."

Yet faced with this world-shattering threat, fearlessly, Chu Nan shouted, "Bring it on!"

Boom!

His cultivation erupted fully, the Martial Wheel instantly appeared behind him.

One, two... five, Flame Martial Wheel, Sword Martial Wheel, Soul Martial Wheel, Thunder Martial Wheel, nine Martial Wheels appeared consecutively.

The entire Mission Hall was engulfed in turmoil, the earth quaked, and Chu Nan braced himself, utilizing the full power of the nine Martial Wheels to withstand this thunderous strike!
