Chapter 13: Ch13: Crushing
"How dare you mock me, you bastard?!"
Bai Shuo charged forward, throwing a wild punch at Mo Bai's face, his mouth stretched wide in a furious roar, eyes blazing with rage.
"Heh, idiot. That's exactly what I was waiting for."
Mo Bai's lips moved with eerie calm as he took a simple step to the right, easily avoiding the punch. In the same motion, he seized Bai Shuo's arm with both hands, twisted his body, lifted him clean off the ground, and—
"BANG!"
A deafening crash echoed across the training ground as Bai Shuo's back slammed violently against the floor.
"ARGHH!"
Bai Shuo let out a scream of pain, spitting from the force of the impact. A metallic taste filled his mouth, and before he could even blink, his vision was completely overtaken—
—by the sole of Mo Bai's foot.
"BANG!"
Another brutal sound split the air as Mo Bai stomped down on Bai Shuo's face, pinning his head to the ground. Gasps erupted across the field.
