After the treatment ended, Ye Rong breathed a sigh of relief.
The Azure Phosphorus Earth Dragon rapidly shrank, eventually revealing the appearance of Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo looked up at Lin Chuan, his eyes flashing with deep apprehension and lingering fear. All his emotions finally turned into gritted teeth, "Lin brat, do you want to kill me?"
"I'm so sorry, Senior Dugu, I didn't expect the power to be so exaggerated."
Lin Chuan smiled awkwardly and quickly bowed in apology.
This time it was really his problem.
Dugu Bo was extremely frustrated. He had been very confident that he, a titled Douluo, could not be instantly killed by a mere Soul Emperor, even if the opponent was Lin Chuan.
Who would have thought that even freezing time couldn't stop this arrow?
Moreover, judging from the fact that this kid's face is not red and he is not out of breath, it is obvious that this move is not a big burden for him. Does that mean that he is already able to kill a Title Douluo?
Thinking of this, Dugu Bo's gaze immediately became unnatural, as if he were looking at a monster.
"Lin boy, are you even human? How did you manage to create such a terrifying self-made soul skill?"
"I only have a slight understanding of water and fire, I didn't expect them to be so powerful, it almost caused you, Senior Dugu, to get into trouble."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo gently shook his head.
"Don't blame yourself. I know you held back. If you hadn't aimed for my shoulder but for my chest or head, I wouldn't be standing here talking to you right now. With this self-created soul skill, you could probably kill even a Title Douluo!"
Dugu Bo was the only one who agreed with this.
Recalling that moment, the arrow was incredibly fast, leaving no time to dodge, and its power was astonishing; probably very few people could withstand it.
To kill a Title Douluo at the Soul Emperor level—this is probably the only one in history to have done so.
Hearing Dugu Bo's evaluation, Lin Chuan just smiled and didn't respond.
However, judging from the fight with Dugu Bo, an ordinary Title Douluo would not be able to withstand this arrow, even a defensive Soul Master would be the same. But whether a Super Douluo or even a level 99 Peerless Douluo could withstand it is uncertain.
It is said that after reaching level 95 in Soul Power, earth-shattering changes will occur. With each increase in Soul Power, both Soul Masters and Martial Souls will receive a huge boost.
Lin Chuan had never fought against a Super Douluo before, so he wasn't entirely clear on the specifics, but he figured it was definitely enough to pose a threat.
"So, Your Majesty's appearance just now was caused by you, Xiao Chuan?"
Ye Rong, who had been standing silently to the side, finally understood what was going on.
At first, she thought that a powerful enemy had attacked Tianshui Academy and injured Dugu Bo so badly, but it turned out that Lin Chuan was the one who caused all of this.
"Hiss..." Ye Rong was a little hesitant to think any further.
"Rong'er!"
A loud shout rang out, and Gu Yishan arrived late. He also noticed the situation around him and asked in a deep voice, "What happened? Young friend Lin, why did you suddenly bring Rong'er here?"
Lin Chuan really didn't know how to answer.
"It's nothing serious, Xiao Chuan just asked me to help out a little," Ye Rong thankfully spoke up to defuse the situation. "By the way, Dad, didn't you just say that the promotion tournament is almost over? Shouldn't we head to Tian Dou City to meet up with Ling Ling and the others?"
"It's about time to set off." Gu Yi could tell that the three of them were hiding something, but he didn't press them for details.
"The qualifying rounds are almost over, so I should head over there too. Otherwise, Yanzi and Lingling alone probably won't be able to get past the Spirit Hall!"
I've just grasped something new, and if I set off now, I can still make it to the finals.
Only now does he truly possess the ability to protect himself, and he is not too afraid even when facing older generation soul masters.
Most importantly, it's time to settle some old scores!
Lin Chuan's eyes flickered slightly, and boundless anticipation welled up in his heart.
……
Tiandou City.
A carriage came to a steady stop at the entrance of the Royal Knights' training ground. Several figures jumped down one after another. Upon seeing the newcomers, Shui Lanxin, who had been waiting for a long time, smiled and stepped forward to greet them.
"Your Majesty Dugu, Senior Gu, Sister Ye, you must be tired from your journey!"
Ye Rong replied with a smile, "Thank you for keeping me waiting, Sister Shui!"
The two mature and beautiful women exchanged a few pleasantries, like old friends who had known each other for many years. The atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious, and when they stood together, they were truly the most beautiful sight.
"Xiao Chuan, you've finally arrived! I thought you were going to stand me up!"
Shui Lanxin suddenly steered the conversation toward Lin Chuan, her words full of teasing.
"Could it be that in the dean's eyes I am such a faithless person?" Lin Chuan immediately clutched his chest, feigning a heartbroken expression.
Such an exaggerated gesture immediately drew a pretty eye roll from the beautiful female dean.
"You little rascal, but you've come at the right time. There's a competition for our academy today, and our opponent is Shrek Academy, which was formerly known as Blue Tyrant Academy."
"Oh? Then I'll have to see!"
Lin Chuan immediately became interested. After all, he was no stranger to Shrek Academy. This was the so-called main character group, not to mention that he had a bit of a grudge against Tang Hao!
I wonder what Shrek Academy's situation is now after losing the opportunity of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
"What? Do you know anyone at Shrek Academy, Xiao Chuan?" Shui Lanxin sensed something was wrong and asked softly.
Lin Chuan shook his head and chuckled, "We'll talk about it after the match ends and we get back to our lodgings."
"You little rascal, you always like to keep things a secret."
Shui Lanxin couldn't help but glare at him, but she didn't press the matter further.
"If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. The competition is about to start, let's go inside!"
With Shui Lanxin, the dean of Tianshui Academy, clearing the way, the elite competition staff did not stop them, since each academy's accompanying personnel could come and go freely.
Walk through the passageway and arrive at the audience seats.
"Dean, you're back!"
The speaker was Qin Shan, who had previously entered the Star Dou Great Forest and Sunset Forest with her.
Upon seeing the group of people behind Shui Lanxin, Qin Shan immediately showed a respectful expression, "Greetings, Your Majesty Dugu, Senior Gu, and Patriarch Ye."
Dugu Bo didn't react much, but Gu Yi and Ye Rong nodded slightly in response.
"Teacher Qin, how is the situation?"
"Dean, you've come at the perfect time! Bing'er and the others' competition is about to begin!"
Looking in the direction Qin Shan pointed, they indeed saw several youthful and beautiful figures standing by the arena; they were none other than the team members from Tianshui Academy.
Directly opposite them stood a number of people, representing Shrek Academy.
"Are those people Lingling and the others their opponents?" Gu Yi looked over, his expression suddenly darkening. "Isn't that Ning Fengzhi's daughter? How come she's in this obscure academy?"
The Ye family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were never on good terms, so naturally they wouldn't give them a friendly look.
"Senior Gu, Shrek Academy is no ordinary institution. In addition to the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's sect master, there is also a prince from the Star Luo Empire, a member of the Star Luo Zhu family, a fire-attribute soul master with a mutated martial soul, and a very rare food-type soul master."
"It's no exaggeration to say that they are this year's biggest dark horse!"
Chapter 110 Watching the Battle
Before everyone could finish processing what was happening, Shui Lanxin's voice rang out again.
"Moreover, according to information revealed by the organizers, the oldest member of Shrek Academy is only seventeen years old, and the youngest is only one year younger than Xiaochuan."
These words startled the group.
"How could such an obscure academy attract so many geniuses?" Gu Yi was filled with confusion.
However, Shui Lanxin was not entirely clear about this either.
Perhaps Shrek Academy does indeed have its unique strengths!
Lin Chuan sat to the side, listening to their conversation, and almost couldn't help but burst out laughing.
What does Shrek Academy rely on? Deception, of course!
Just like Tianshui Academy only accepts female students, Shrek Academy requires students to be under thirteen years old and have a soul power of level twenty-one or above.
They call it recruiting only monsters, but isn't that a perfect excuse?
A twelve-year-old Grand Soul Master might be a little short of monster, but he's definitely a genius.
With such talent, one could easily be placed in any advanced soul master academy and, thanks to the simulated environment, almost certainly not be overlooked. Yet, at Shrek Academy, there are still students who cannot graduate.
All I can say is that publicity is indeed very important.
"So what? Do you think they can compare to this kid?"
Dugu Bo didn't care. After being severely injured by Lin Chuan before coming here, those so-called geniuses were no longer worth his attention.
Genius? Only this kid deserves that title.
"Ahem, let's watch the game first!"
Lin Chuan felt a little uncomfortable from the wind, so he quickly coughed twice and changed the subject.
