Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Professor Mu, her eyes filled with incomparable awe, looked at Yu Huang. It seemed that Yu Huang had successfully comprehended the Blazing Moon Art!
Hearing that, Sheng Xiao looked at Yu Huang with a burning gaze. She was always giving him surprises.
The golden spiritual energy around Yu Huang’s body became more and more dazzling. In the end, it was so dense that she was almost invisible.
‘When Xuanyuan Jing saw this scene, he suddenly felt a sense of danger and fear.
‘What kind of technique was this?
Why had he never seen her use it before?
At that moment, Yu Huang suddenly tumed around. Her left hand held the longbow that was transformed from the Purifying Evil Phoenix Flame. A translucent fiery-red crystal ball floated in her open right palm.
That crystal ball looked like a combination of some kind of energy, but as a beast tamer, Xuanyuan Jing didn’t sense any spirit energy fluctuations from it.
“What exactly is that?!” Xuanyuan Jing was astonished.
“What is that?” Professor Mu was also attracted by the fiery red ball in Yu Huang’s palm. She said thoughtfully, “This thing looks somewhat familiar.”
‘When Vice-Princ.i.p.al Edward, who was in charge of the entire Purifying Spirit Department, saw this, he suddenly stood up in shock and exclaimed, “That’s a Psychic Ball! How can this girl be a Purifying Spirit Master?!”

Purifying Spirit Master?
Professor Mu was stunned by Edward’s words.
Professor Mu found it inconceivable and instinctively retorted, “That’s impossible? Yu Huang is clearly a Beast Tamer. Edward, are you mistaken? She can’t be a Purifying Spirit Master!”
Edward rolled his eyes at Professor Mu and said angrily, “That’s what I’m researching. How can I be mistaken? You can question my character, but you can’t question my profession!”
Hearing that, everyone fell silent.
Edward was a Purifying Spirit Master and had devoted his entire life to researching for the Purifying Spirit Department. They could mistake the Psychic Sphere, but could Professor Mu?
Professor Mu thought about how close Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang were and wanted to ask Sheng Xiao what was going on.
Professor Mu raised her head and looked at Sheng Xiao. She realized that Sheng Xiao was not surprised when he heard what Edward said. She felt that something was amiss.
Did Sheng Xiao already know about it?
“Sheng Xiao, are you hiding something from us?”
Sheng Xiao bowed and replied respectfully, “Professor Mu, Yu Huang is indeed a Purifying Spirit Master.”
‘With Sheng Xiao’s confirmation, Professor Mu no longer had doubts that Yu Huang was a Purifying Spirit Master.
But
“How is that possible? Isn’t she a Beast Tamer?” How could someone be both a Beast Tamer and a Purifying Spirit Master? “Sheng Xiao asked.” What was going on?”
Everyone looked at Sheng Xiao while hoping that he would give a detailed explanation.
Sheng Xiao nodded and explained, “Yu Huang is indeed a Beast Tamer, but she is also a Purifying Spirit Master. She is the only Purifying Spirit Master and Beast Tamer in the entire Holy Spirit Continent. Her teacher is Master Lin Jiansheng, the president of the Purifying Spirit branch in the Prosperous
Capital of the Divine Moon Empire.”
These words shocked all the professors.
“Yu Huang is a dual-cultivator? Is she the disciple of that stingy Lin Jiansheng?” When Lin Jiansheng was in the Divine Realm Academy, he was famous for being stingy. He had graduated more than a hundred years ago, but these old friends still had a deep impression of him.
No one expected Yu Huang to be Lin Jiansheng’s disciple.
“She is a treasure!” Edward stared at the enchanting figure in the ring with fervent eyes and said excitedly, “We’ll take this child too!”
Professor Mu said, “She is a student of our Beast Tamer Department.”
Edward immediately retorted fiercely, “But she entered the Divine Realm Academy as a scholar. A scholar should belong to our Purifying Spirit Academy!”
“But she entered the Beast Tamer Department first!”
“But she’s also a Purifying Spirit Master. What’s wrong with joining my Purifying Spirit Department! ?”
The battle was not over yet, but Professor Mu and Edward were already fighting in the sky.
Sheng Xiao blocked his hearing. He lowered his head and focused on the battle below.
Xuanyuan Jing wasn’t Edward, so he couldn’t recognize the true ident.i.ty of the ball on Yu Huang’s right hand. However, the energy released from the crystal ball made Xuanyuan Jing feel uneasy.
Xuanyuan Jing’s instincts told him that that thing was very dangerous. He immediately ran to the bottom of his beast form and said to Jiang Wu, “Give me your greatest support!”
In Jiang Wu’s eyes, Yu Huang was already riddled with wounds and was nothing to be afraid of. However, he was being paid by Xuanyuan Jing. Since Xuanyuan Jing had requested it, he could only do it obediently.
“Understood!”
Jiang Wu began to sing the most powerful song in his cultivation technique. With the support of the energy, the Giant Teeth Shark grew by another two meters.
Jiang Wu told Xuanyuan Jing, “My abilities have reached the limit.”
Xuanyuan Jing acknowledged and raised his head to look at the huge Rotating Tooth Shark that was coiled on top of his head. He then looked at the ball on Yu Huang’s right hand, and a sense of helplessness actually arose in his heart.
At this moment, Yu Huang suddenly looked towards Xuanyuan Jing with an incomparably cold gaze.
Xuanyuan Jing felt a chill run down his spine.
With a thought from Yu Huang, the Psychic Sphere transformed into several fiery red arrows that fanned out.
Yu Huang formed an arrow with her right hand and placed it on the longbow. The moment her Spiritual Energy and Spiritual Energy collided, the entire sky changed color. It was not an exaggeration to say that it could devour the sun and seize the moon!1
Killing intent flashed past Yu Huang’s hazel eyes! She pulled out the fan-shaped arrow with her right hand and aimed it at where Xuanyuan Jing was standing. She muttered softly, “Blazing Moon Art!”
Blazing Moon Art
‘When Xuanyuan Jing heard these three words, his pupils contracted.
It was actually the Blazing Moon Art!
‘The Blazing Moon Art was a Witch-level cultivation technique created by the selfless Prime Master, so its power was extraordinary. Xuanyuan Jing knew how terrifying the Blazing Moon Art was, so he didn’t dare to underestimate his opponent. He hurriedly used his most powerful move again—
“Bury of Thunder!”
The Rotating Tooth Shark raised another water wall, protecting him and Jiang Wu behind it.
‘At the same time, the five fingers on Yu Huang’s right hand suddenly loosened, and the fan-shaped arrow flew towards Xuanyuan Jing in an arc.
It swept past the sunlight, overshadowing the brilliance of the sun.
The long arrow left the bow with an imposing momentum!
The long arrow and the wall of water clashed fiercely in the sky. Half of it was raging fire and the other half was clear water. This scene was gorgeous and magnificent. It should have been a beautiful painting, but the destructive power released from the painting was shocking.
This time, the water wall created by the Rotating Tooth Shark only lasted for a few seconds before it was easily broken by Yu Huang. Once the water wall broke, the huge-toothed shark suffered a backlash and instantly turned into gray spirit energy that drilled back into Xuanyuan Jing’s body.
‘The fan-shaped arrow pa.s.sed through the water wall and landed in the middle of Xuanyuan Jing and Jiang Wu. It exploded with a bang and gave off a strong red light, creating a thirty-meter wide pit in the arena!
“ah!”
Xuanyuan Jing and Jiang Wu flew back several hundred meters and were ruthlessly smashed onto the gra.s.sland. They looked even more miserable than Yu Huang did before.
“ah! My head hurts!” Jiang Wu fell to the ground and hugged his head as he cried out. He rolled around on the ground and his cries made one’s scalp tingle.
Spiritual power harmed the body, and psychic power harmed the soul. The Blazing Moon Art, which was a combination of spiritual power and psychic power, harmed both the body and soul.
Beast Tamers could easily recover from superficial wounds, but when their souls were injured, it was usually permanent.
Jiang Wu was a helper beast tamer, so the attack power he received was relatively light. He could even roll on the ground and howl in pain. Meanwhile, Xuanyuan Jing was the main fighting force, so the damage he received far exceeded Jiang Wu’s.
Xuanyuan Jing laid on the ground while unable to move at all. He was like a wooden doll that had lost its vitality.
‘When the explosion happened earlier, the psychic fragments had cut through the artery on Xuanyuan Jing’s leg. Fresh blood gushed out from his body and soon dyed the green gra.s.s beneath him red.
A psychic fragment pierced into his chest and into his heart. Although his heart wasn’t broken, it was still severely injured.
Yu Huang bent down to pick up the mask on the ground and put it back on. She held her breath and walked slowly towards Xuanyuan Jing.
Yu Huang’s figure appeared in Xuanyuan Jing’s blurry vision, and for the first time, he felt fear towards Yu Huang. Xuanyuan Jing wanted to retreat, but his body was too injured and couldn’t move an inch.
‘When they got closer, Yu Huang stared at the fragment on Xuanyuan Jing’s heart for a while before kneeling down beside him. She stretched out her hand to pull out the fragment.
Immediately, fresh blood spurted out and dyed the clothes on Xuanyuan Jing’s chest red.
“ah…” Xuanyuan Jing let out a painful groan.
Yu Huang threw the piece that was stained with Xuanyuan Jing’s blood into her interspatial ring and finally smiled. “Xuanyuan Jing, you lost. According to our agreement, you have to kneel down and apologize to me in front of the entire school and admit that you are not worthy of me. Are you going to
break your promise?”
Yet Xuanyuan Jing was already so injured that he couldn’t even stand up and couldn’t even open his mouth, so how could he kneel down to apologize?
Unable to hear Xuanyuan Jing’s apology, Yu Huang was a little disappointed.
Seeing that Yu Huang was a little unhappy, Gold Ingot hurriedly waved at the sky and shouted to Professor Zhong from the Healing Department, “Professor Zhong, I see that Xuanyuan’s injuries are quite serious. Why don’t you come down and treat his injuries?”
Professor Zhong thought that he had heard wrongly and looked at Gold Ingot suspiciously.
Gold Ingot was an extremely protective person, and Yu Huang was his only student. This brat Xuanyuan Jing went back on his words and brought a sixth grade healer to bully his student. Not only was he not angry, but he even kindly asked her to treat Xuanyuan Jing’s injuries
Professor Zheng felt that he was up to no good.
However, seeing that Xuanyuan Jing’s injuries were indeed serious, Professor Zhong didn’t dare to delay and quickly flew down to stop the bleeding on the spot.
After the treatment to stop the bleeding ended, Professor Zhong examined Xuanyuan Jing’s body again and found that his soul had also been attacked. She looked at Yu Huang in astonishment and asked, “Are you a Purifying Spirit Master?”
The Psychic Sphere had already been exposed. There was no way to hide the fact that Yu Huang was a Purifying Spirit Master.
Yu Huang nodded. “Yes.”
Professor Zhong shook her head and sighed. “You’re such a treasure.”
However, such a huge treasure was dumped by Xuanyuan Jing…
