Chapter 44: A Dragon Has Reverse Scales—Touch Them and You Die!
Xiao Wu was no less expressive than her opponent, her face equally filled with disdain, though paired with her delicate features, it somehow came off as adorably cute.
With one hand on her hip and the other pointing at the other party, she said, "Xiao Chenyu, haven't you had enough beatings from me? How dare you come looking for trouble with us working students today!"
With his brother by his side, Xiao Chenyu's attitude was even more arrogant. "Heh, what's your brother worth? Do you even know who my brother is? He's a level 28 Great Spirit Master! Have you ever seen such a young Great Spirit Master?"
"Little girl, where's that useless brother of yours? He dared to lay a hand on my little brother—tell him to come out and face his death!" Xiao Huo said, looking at Xiao Wu.
"Hmph! Is being a Great Spirit Master so impressive? You insulted my brother, and today I'll make sure you know that I, Xiao Wu, am not someone to mess with!" Xiao Wu retorted angrily.
Xiao Wu was fiercely protective of her brother. To her now, Brother Qianyu was everything. Whoever dared insult Qianyu, she would fight them to the bitter end!
With that, Xiao Wu charged forward. Her soft skills were incredibly formidable. She leaped into the air and aimed a kick straight at Xiao Huo.
But Xiao Wu was only at level 12, while Xiao Huo was a level 28 Great Spirit Master. How could she possibly win? Xiao Huo simply raised his hand lightly and effortlessly blocked her flying kick!
With a slight lift of her foot, he sent Xiao Wu flying, and she crashed to the ground.
"Little girl, you'd better call your brother out. You're too green!" Xiao Huo laughed loudly.
"You!" Xiao Wu was furious and prepared to charge again.
Xiao Huo immediately flared up, glaring at Xiao Wu. "Fine! Since that's how it is, let me teach you all a lesson myself!"
"Spirit, possess!"
Instantly, a fiery glow erupted from Xiao Huo's body. Flames ignited all over him, even flickering in his pupils.
A white and a yellow spirit ring appeared around him, and a ring of fire blazed around his body.
"Kid, let me show you the power of my flames!"
Xiao Huo lunged at Xiao Wu with explosive, domineering force.
Facing his charge, Xiao Wu grew cautious—after all, Xiao Huo was a level 28 Battle Spirit Master.
As Xiao Huo's body surged forward, the spirit power radiating from him already enveloped a three-meter radius around Xiao Wu. It was a pure, overwhelming strike with no finesse—just raw, head-on power.
Xiao Wu darted out instantly, then began using her soft skills. She entangled Xiao Huo with her techniques and launched an attack.
Boom—
A loud crash echoed.
Xiao Huo was instantly sent flying backward.
"Damn girl!" Xiao Huo cursed.
After being repelled by Xiao Wu, he immediately charged at her again, his immense power erupting as flames shot from his hands!
The speed of his lunge was astonishing. Before Xiao Huo could even process it, his palms collided with Xiao Wu's.
With a muffled bang, green and red lights flared simultaneously. A burst of energy rippled outward, the resulting gust of wind making the onlookers stumble.
Flames exploded outward!
Xiao Wu staggered back several steps before steadying herself.
Against a level 28 Great Spirit Master, she was indeed struggling.
Just then, Xiao Chenyu stood beside Xiao Huo and sneered, "This is what happens when you mess with us!"
At that moment, Xiao Wu suddenly shot forward from the ground, hurtling toward Xiao Huo's body!

Xiao Huo's large frame was sent flying from the impact, crashing three meters away.
His underlings had just been about to cheer when they saw their boss thrown aside. This time, the way they looked at Xiao Wu completely changed.
Xiao Huo rubbed his hands and glanced coldly at Xiao Wu. "Looks like I'll have to get serious!"
Just then, a small figure emerged from the crowd. "I heard someone was looking for me, and when they couldn't find me, they bullied my little sister instead!"
Everyone turned to look—it was Qianyu!
"Brother Qianyu, you're finally back!" Xiao Wu exclaimed joyfully.
The working students, seeing Qianyu, were all thrilled!
"Boss!"
"Boss!" they shouted one after another.
Qianyu stepped out from the crowd, walked up to Xiao Wu, and patted her head. "Leave everything to me now."
"Mm-hmm!"
Xiao Wu nodded obediently.
Xiao Huo sized up Qianyu. "So you're the boss of these working students, the one who beat up my little brother, Qianyu?"
At that moment, Xiao Chenyu chimed in beside Xiao Huo, "Big brother, that's him!"
Qianyu raised his head to look at Xiao Huo, who stood a head taller, completely unfazed. "That's right, it's me. And you must be that little firebug who's been boasting about coming after me?"
"Heh, kid, I didn't expect your mouth to be so sharp. I wonder if your skills match it?" Xiao Huo smirked.
"They might not be much, but crushing a little firebug like you is more than enough!" Qianyu replied coolly.
Xiao Huo paced in front of Qianyu, speaking as he walked. "Kid, when you laid hands on my brother, did you even know who our family is?
Let me tell you, my father is the city lord of Nuoding City. Offend us, and not even Nuoding Academy can protect you."
As soon as Xiao Huo said this, the working students' faces fell.
They knew Xiao Huo's brother, Xiao Chenyu, came from a wealthy family, but they had no idea his father was the city lord of Nuoding City. Now that they'd offended the city lord, how could they possibly survive in Nuoding City?
"You bunch of scum, you lowly peasants! If Nuoding City hadn't taken pity on you, would you even have the chance to study here? Not only are you ungrateful, but you dare lay hands on my brother—you ungrateful wretches! None of you will get off easy today!"
"And that's not all. After today, I'll have my father expel you all from Nuoding City. Not even Nuoding Academy can save you!" Xiao Huo declared, sentence by sentence.
The working students' hearts tightened with fear.
But Qianyu's gaze remained calm, his face showing not a trace of dread.
He wasn't even afraid of the Clear Sky Douluo, let alone this minor Great Spirit Master.
Even if the city lord himself showed up, so what?
When Qianyu wanted someone dead, no one could stop him—no matter who they were.
Behind Xiao Huo stood several older guards, all positioned at his back, staring at Qianyu.
Qianyu smirked faintly and stepped up to Xiao Huo. "Oh, so you're the city lord's son. But today, I'm afraid even if the city lord came in person, he couldn't save you!"
"Kid, are you provoking me?" Xiao Huo asked icily, staring at Qianyu.
"No, no, no. I wouldn't provoke a dead man," Qianyu replied coldly.
Laying a hand on Xiao Wu was like touching Qianyu's reverse scale. A dragon has reverse scales—touch them, and you die!
