"Oh, how lively. What's going on here?"
Before the two of them reached the Education Committee, Dong Bo's voice had already carried inside.
Yu Yuanlong and the others turned at the sound, just in time to see Ye Xiaobao and Dong Bo walk in.
When Yu Tianheng saw Ye Xiaobao, a trace of viciousness surfaced on his face.
"Second Granduncle, that kid is Ye Xiaobao. That man is his teacher, and also the current fourth seat of the Education Committee."
The moment Yu Yuanlong heard this, he understood that Ye Xiaobao was the culprit who had injured Tianheng.
"Good. Since you're here, don't think of leaving."
As he spoke, he reached out to grab Ye Xiaobao.
His entire arm transformed into a dragon's limb, covered in scales and crackling with blue lightning.
Seeing that the man's arm had already undergone dragonification,
Dong Bo narrowed his eyes. An ordinary Soul Elder would be crippled even if they survived that move. This man wanted the Young Master dead.
This man had earned his death!
His Iron Claw Wind Eagle martial soul was likewise renowned for its claws, so he directly attacked the incoming dragon claw.
Dragon claw against eagle claw!
Boom!
A powerful surge of Soul Power erupted between them, and they were evenly matched.
The tables, chairs, and benches on both sides were shattered into pieces by the force of that Soul Power.
Apart from Ye Xiaobao, everyone Yu Yuanlong had brought was forced back several steps.
Ye Xiaobao stared coldly at Yu Yuanlong.
This man has some skill. But since the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect has made its move, the plan can begin.
Yu Yuanlong had not expected this man to be such an expert. His expression turned solemn as he said,
"Today, I must take that kid away."
Dong Bo looked utterly disdainful.
"You? You're not qualified!"
Yu Yuanlong's face darkened, but he could not gain the upper hand. He said coldly,
"Does Your Excellency intend to oppose the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?"
"Is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect so impressive? Why haven't I heard of it? If your grandson is trash, he should find somewhere to hide. Why bother entering a competition?"
Yu Tianlong's expression became even uglier upon hearing this.
They had already been in the wrong in this matter, let alone being mocked to their faces.
Anger rushed to his head, and he directly released eight soul rings.
Dong Bo was not to be outdone and released his soul rings as well.
He knew that this man's Soul Power was weaker than his, but the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was far superior in quality to the Iron Claw Wind Eagle.
Once their soul rings appeared, their martial souls emerged as well. A blue lightning dragon and a gigantic eagle materialized behind them.
They were on the verge of fighting.
A faint smile rose at the corner of Ye Xiaobao's lips.
He wished nothing more than for Yu Yuanlong to start a fight here and blow the matter up.
Meng Shenji, however, grew somewhat anxious. If they fought, wouldn't the Education Committee be demolished?
"Gentlemen, could you hear me out?"
Dong Bo and Yu Yuanlong both looked toward Meng Shenji.
Meng Shenji gathered his thoughts before saying in a deep voice,
"This was a minor matter to begin with. Mr. Yu, how about giving me some face? Could both sides shake hands and make peace?"
Yu Yuanlong was deeply unwilling upon hearing this, but he also knew that the man he had fought was no weaker than him.
After a moment's thought, he turned around and said,
"Fine. This time, I'll give Heaven Dou Royal Academy some face. As long as that kid kneels and apologizes to Tianheng first, I won't pursue the matter for now."
As if he had heard a joke, Ye Xiaobao gave a contemptuous smile.
"What a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect. You want me to apologize? Are you worthy?"
His voice was filled with disdain.
The instant Dong Bo heard this, he understood the Young Master's intentions and sneered,
"What Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon? I'd say it's a Blue Lightning Tyrant Bug. He couldn't even beat a soul master of the same rank whose Soul Power was five levels lower. If it were me, I'd have hanged myself long ago."
Then he added,
"I think you should rename yourselves the Blue Bug Sect. A bunch of Blue Lightning Tyrant Bugs."
Yu Yuanlong was so enraged by those words that he was beginning to lose his mind. He turned and shouted at his subordinates,
"Go! Seize that kid!"
"Yes!" The men immediately accepted the order. Just as they were about to act, a deep, powerful voice rang out.
"What imposing prestige the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect has!"
Dugu Bo walked in with his hands behind his back, Dugu Yan following behind him. Dugu Yan even winked at Ye Xiaobao.
Ye Xiaobao understood that Dugu Yan had brought Dugu Bo here for him.
Meng Shenji and the other two hurried over and bowed at the same time.
"Bilin Your Excellency."
Yu Yuanlong and Dong Bo also stopped and respectfully said, "Greetings, Your Excellency."
Ye Xiaobao could not help clicking his tongue at the sight.
This was a Titled Douluo. No matter how formidable a Soul Douluo was, they could only bow obediently.
But Dugu Bo's arrival had disrupted his plans.
Yu Tianheng felt even worse. He had clearly chosen this man as his future father-in-law, but now it seemed there was no hope.
Yu Yuanlong had not expected there to be a Titled Douluo here either.
He had naturally heard of the Poison Douluo's reputation and did not dare act recklessly.
"Your Excellency, this is a private matter between the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and Heaven Dou Royal Academy. I hope you will not interfere."
Dugu Bo snorted coldly and said disdainfully,
"I naturally have no business meddling in private matters. However, this kid and I get along quite well. I'm protecting him, no matter what."
Then he said to Yu Yuanlong,
"I don't care what sect you belong to. Why haven't you gotten lost yet?"
Yu Yuanlong's face immediately turned green, then purple.
But before a Titled Douluo, he could only swallow this insult. He shot Dong Bo a vicious glare, then turned back and said fiercely,
"Let's go!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
"Hold it!"
Everyone was drawn by the voice and looked toward Dong Bo.
"You think you can just leave like that?"
Dugu Bo frowned slightly at Dong Bo's words.
He had only intended to show himself and grant a favor; he did not want to offend the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect too deeply.
Yet he had not expected this man to remain unsatisfied.
He had noticed that day that there was something wrong with Ye Xiaobao's teacher's head.
Yu Yuanlong could not help saying,
"Does Your Excellency truly think the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect has no one?"
Dong Bo ignored him, pointed at Yu Yuanlong, and said to Meng Shenji,
"First Seat, this man started a fight within Heaven Dou Royal Academy. I ask that you apprehend him and punish him."
Meng Shenji was speechless. Yu Yuanlong was already leaving, yet Dong Bo still wanted to stir up trouble. Wasn't this asking for trouble?
"Let it go. Since this matter has not escalated, we'll leave it at that. Tianheng, are you truly leaving Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
"Hmph. If the academy is this unfair, there's no point in staying."
Yu Tianheng spoke with a dark expression.
Meng Shenji sighed, his face full of disappointment.
"Fine. If you wish to leave, then leave. I hope you will have a better future."
Then he said to Ye Xiaobao, "Let this matter end here."
Ye Xiaobao nodded. This was not yet the time to clash with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, but he would remember what had happened today.
Seeing that the Young Master would not pursue the matter further, Dong Bo said nothing more.
Yu Yuanlong did not leave behind any threats and departed with his people.
Once they had left, Dugu Bo kindly reminded him,
"Kid, you should be more careful in the future. I fear the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect may retaliate afterward."
Ye Xiaobao had already remembered the favor Dugu Bo had done him. Smiling, he replied,
"Understood, Senior. I'll remember it. Thank you for stepping in this time. I will keep this kindness firmly in my heart."
