Baili Xiongfeng, at this moment, had utterly disregarded the reality that the Jun family was backed by an incomparably supreme master!

If Baili Xiongfeng had only ignored the presence of that master, it might have been manageable; after all, the master was not immediately present to wipe him out. But in his blinding rage, he had overlooked another, far more fatal point.

He himself was already at an absolute disadvantage in the contest of sheer aura. Now, under the subtle guidance of the prevailing spiritual currents, every move he made was utterly within Jun Mobang’s control! In truth, Jun Moxie, even with his eyes closed and ears shut, could clearly sense precisely where the attack would originate!

To say nothing of the fact that he was already infuriated to the point of madness by Jun Moxie, causing his strikes to lose the razor sharpness expected of a Divine Profound Realm expert!

A flash of white robe, and Jun Mowu retreated with an impossibly graceful movement. He still held his hands behind his back, but after retreating a step, he instantly shimmered back into position. His right hand, previously concealed behind his back, suddenly moved, lightly meeting Baili Xiongfeng’s palm—a seemingly reckless counter-strike.

Yet, a golden gleam flashed from his hand, and before contact was even truly made, he spun away like a phantom, standing three zhang distant once more, hands clasped behind his back.

As the crowd gaped in stunned silence, a thin line of crimson blood violently erupted! It burst directly from the center of Baili Xiongfeng’s palm! One move! Only a single move!

Jun Mowu, a youth whose martial level was separated from Baili Xiongfeng by the chasm between heaven and earth, had wounded Baili Xiongfeng, a Divine Profound master, in just one strike! This was utterly beyond belief.

If one had not witnessed such an inexplicable event with their own eyes, who would ever believe it? Who would dare believe it?

Even Baili Xiongfeng himself, despite experiencing it firsthand, as the sharp, stinging pain resonated in his hand, refused to accept that he had actually been injured! Injured by the hand of a mere seventeen-year-old boy!

“Baili Xiongfeng is finished!” The seven great masters who had followed trailed discreetly in a corner unseen by the crowd. With their level of cultivation, they had no need to fear detection. Watching everything unfold, they all let out involuntary sighs. The one who spoke was Dongfang Wenjian.

“That Baili Xiongfeng was finished long ago! The moment he was suppressed by Moxie’s oppressive aura, he had already lost!” Eagle Bo Kong stated coldly. “The moment Moxie enraged him into spitting blood repeatedly, the outcome of his ruin was sealed! Baili Xiongfeng’s defeat was entirely a loss to himself. Otherwise, despite his despicable character, his skill was still that of a First Grade Divine Profound; no matter how poor his condition, he shouldn't have been so easily defeated by a brat who had just reached the initial stages of the Heaven Profound Realm!”

The others nodded in agreement, falling into thought. But Eagle Bo Kong, who had just uttered those words, suddenly froze! He was startled by his own statement!

After a long pause, he gasped, his long hair suddenly standing completely on end. He stammered, “Initial stages of the Heaven Profound Realm! What did I just say? Did I see that wrong? This is truly like seeing a ghost... When did this kid reach initial Heaven Profound?”

His eyes, filled with disbelief, swept across Jun Wuyi and Dongfang Sanjian and the others. At this moment, the eyes of this dignified master, one of the Eight Great Supremes, were filled with utter bewilderment. “I remember perfectly clearly, during the Beast War, this kid was clearly still at the peak of Jade Profound. How is it that in just two days, he has become initial Heaven Profound? Huh? Has he advanced four entire levels overnight?! Is there any natural law left in this world?”

Once he said it, everyone instantly recognized the fact.

In truth, earlier, everyone had already confirmed the cultivation level of the Young Master Jun. After all, these seven people, with the exception of Jun Wuyi, were all Divine Profound cultivators; how could they not discern it?

But they had never considered that aspect until the Supreme Eagle inadvertently pointed out the veiled truth with his remark. Only then did everyone confront the question head-on, and without exception, the mouths of the seven great masters dropped into perfect ‘O’ shapes.

Yes, they had all seen the cultivation level of this boy two days prior—peak Jade Profound, clear as day. It was precisely because of this that they had praised him as the genius among geniuses. But why, in the blink of an eye, had he become initial Heaven Profound? Did Jun Wuyi also learn to fly? How could they continue to praise him now? Having already been the genius among geniuses, how much further could they possibly exaggerate his talents?!

The gaze of six of them once again focused on Jun Wuyi’s face. The meaning was clear: You are his uncle; you must know. You aren't going to tell us again that you have no idea, are you?!

Jun Wuyi nearly tumbled out of his wheelchair! Why are you all looking at me? I honestly don’t know! Esteemed sirs, you must understand—though I am his biological uncle, I am just as clueless! This kid is full of secrets; who knows how many trump cards he is still hiding?!

The crowd stared in astonishment for a moment, then, seeing that Jun Wuyi could provide no explanation, and with an even more spectacular drama unfolding live before them, they couldn't help but redirect their gaze back to the fight. After all, a nascent Heaven Profound defeating a First Grade Divine Profound… such a classic battle that subverts conventional understanding was truly a rare sight that only appears once in a millennium!

Looking at the bloody hole in the center of his palm, Baili Xiongfeng remained stock-still, dazed and disbelieving! His hand… after so many years of cultivation, it had become impervious to both water and fire! Even if placed in a furnace, it could endure the heat for several hours completely unscathed! Even against famous sharp blades and swords, he dared to block barehanded, without the slightest hesitation!

But now, before he even clearly saw the opponent’s weapon, a hole had been drilled right through it.

Behind him, Baili Hanhai’s eyes were wide. He had never seen his elder brother look so utterly humiliated—and at the hands of a mere youth!

Baili Luoyun watched all this quietly. To be honest, he was also very surprised by everything he saw, but while surprised, it was not entirely outside his expectations! Ever since Jun Moxie arrived with overwhelming force, completely disregarding the face of the Baili family, Baili Luoyun knew such an outcome was inevitable. Jun Moxie would never have acted this way without absolute certainty!

Although this was Tiannan City, it was unequivocally the Jun family's turf, surrounded by so many masters; he was sure a casual summons could have wiped out Baili Xiongfeng! But the one thing Baili Luoyun hadn't foreseen was that Jun Moxie would choose to fight personally, and moreover, hold the absolute upper hand!

Jun Moxie was clearly younger than himself, yet he possessed such terrifying cultivation power.

A short while ago, although he had sensed that Jun Moxie’s strength slightly surpassed his own, he certainly hadn't anticipated this level—the Heaven Profound Realm, which was far beyond his current reach. Furthermore, he could challenge a Divine Profound expert with Heaven Profound strength, and even defeat him with ease!

What constitutes a true genius? Perhaps only Jun Moxie deserved to be called that. In the presence of this mysterious youth, all so-called ‘geniuses’ in the world paled into insignificance!

As this thought arose, the last vestiges of pride in Baili Luoyun’s heart vanished. In terms of lineage, Jun Moxie was the sole heir of the Tianxiang behemoth Jun family, cherished like a pearl; and what about himself? In terms of profound skill and power, Jun Moxie, at only seventeen, surpassed him by more than just a little—the difference was astronomical, completely incomparable!

While he had been smugly satisfied with reaching the peak of Jade Profound, this young man, six or seven years his junior, was already engaging Divine Profound masters and taking a decisive lead!

What did he still have to be proud of? What was left to be reserved about?

Baili Luoyun was utterly subdued, but on the other side, Baili Xiongfeng was utterly consumed by rage—even madness!

He could not tolerate such a devastating defeat!

With his Divine Profound cultivation and status as an elder, confronting Jun Moxie was already a case of the senior bullying the junior. If the boy hadn't been so excessively provocative, he wouldn't have resorted to attacking him. He had intended to teach him a severe lesson, then explain the circumstances to Jun Wuyi and hand him over, thereby earning the reputation of being magnanimous and not holding grudges against a junior. At the very least, he wouldn't have completely offended the Jun family or torn down the facade between them.

After all, Jun Moxie had insulted the Baili family first, an unforgivable offense to anyone. That he hadn't executed the boy on the spot was already giving the Jun family maximum face! Given the Jun family's nature, there shouldn't have been any greater fallout!

But unexpectedly, despite his careful calculation, he himself stepped forward only to be defeated! And defeated in a single move at that! What could he say now? Should he go to Jun Wuyi and claim that his nephew bullied him too much, and that he actually struck me...? If he did that, he might as well cease living...

Baili Xiongfeng’s palm winds howled, his eyes wide and red like bells, his attacks relentless.

Jun Moxie’s movements were like floating willow fluff, weaving effortlessly through the tempest of his opponent’s palm strikes and shadow punches! With Jun Moxie’s footwork and insight, as long as Baili Xiongfeng didn't unleash those devastating, large-scale attacks, even before his breakthrough, Moxie could have handled the situation with ease!

Let alone now, after his breakthrough, when his reactions were sharper and his movement techniques even more refined!

Baili Xiongfeng, blinded by fury, had lost his composure. He only knew how to attack blindly, yet his heart was fiercely reminding him of one thing: he could teach Jun Moxie a lesson, but he absolutely could not kill him! Once he delivered a killing blow, if Jun Moxie died, the Baili family would also be finished! Under the retribution of that peerless master, the Baili family would likely lack even the ability to defend itself!

Though filled with resentment, Baili Xiongfeng only sought to regain his honor; he absolutely did not wish to invite utter disaster upon his clan!

He did not know that while he was thinking this, Jun Moxie was also considering: Should I kill him? Should I kill Baili Xiongfeng? Is it worth it?

The Young Master’s consideration was whether killing him was worth the price, not whether he could kill him!

Baili Xiongfeng’s moves, while appearing overwhelmingly mighty to others, were riddled with flaws in the eyes of a grand master like Jun Moxie! Jun Moxie had encountered nearly all the techniques of the great sects like Shaolin and Wudang from his past life. If even those accumulated techniques spanning thousands of years had obvious holes, how much more so the ancestral martial arts of the Baili family, an achievement spanning barely a century?

Of course, before today, even if Jun Moxie could see the flaws, he couldn't have put Baili Xiongfeng to death. After all, the physical resilience of a Divine Profound expert was something ordinary people couldn't imagine. It was much like when the Young Master clashed with Dongfang Wendao previously; although he seemed to have the upper hand, he actually couldn't inflict true damage. That situation was very similar to the present one.

But the outcome was completely different now. How could today's Young Master compare to the Moxie of that time?!

The other crucial factor lay in one thing... the weapon!
