Old Man Was Frightened

In addition to the group of High-level Spirit Master waiting at the entrance of the Education Committee, a large number of students arrived one after another after hearing the news, and soon more than a hundred people gathered in the square.

All eyes were focused on the two figures of a man and a woman walking towards them.

The man's gaze was calm and casual, his aura was restrained and peaceful without leaking out in the slightest, yet he possessed a vast and powerful aura.

The woman beside him was tall and had a stunning figure. Her long, dark red hair fluttered in the wind, and her fair face was as exquisite as a sculpture. However, her expression was cold and her aura was sharp and fierce, making people afraid to look directly at her.

Directly in front of the two, more than ten teachers from the Godwind Academy stood tall and straight, all with Soul Power cultivation levels above level sixty.

There were three elders in front of them, with Dean Feng Tianyang in the middle, and two other powerful figures with Soul Douluo cultivation on his left and right sides.

It can only be said that Godwind Academy truly lives up to its reputation as a powerful, long-established Advanced Spirit Master Academy of the Heaven Dou Empire.

The faculty alone is comparable to that of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Perhaps it is slightly lacking in funding, but in terms of its foundation, it is even better. After all, this academy is not like the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, which has become a backyard for noble children and is full of troubles.

The three elderly men standing at the front had gentle smiles and wore exquisite white formal wear with dark silver patterns, which was also the uniform of the Godwind Academy.

Feng Tianyang, who was in the center, had a few gold petals adorning his clothes, making him look even more noble.

Although they were simply standing there, they seemed to be integrated with the main campus of the entire academy. A large number of wind-attribute elements cheered and jumped around them, and even Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but have her eyes flicker slightly.

It is conceivable that if the battle were to take place here, the teachers and students of the Godwind Academy would have a significant advantage.

This is not something like the Seven Sacred Pillars Protecting the Island Formation of Sea God Island; they don't have the ability to create such a formation.

The reason is that this place has only recruited wind attribute Soul Master for many years. The special atmosphere created by these Soul Master driving wind attribute Martial Soul and using wind attribute Soul Skill is somewhat like a beggar's version of the Blue Silver Grass Forest.

Looking at their extremely formal attire, Su Cheng's lips curled into a cold smile.

Soul Douluo Masters of level 80 and above will receive a custom-made formal suit issued by the Spirit Hall. The suit is black with gold patterns and is second only to the red suit of Titled Douluo. It is specially designed for Soul Grandmaster to wear when attending formal occasions.

These Soul Douluo were no exception, and they also had corresponding costumes.

Of course, it's not necessary to wear this dress to formal occasions.

Taking the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect as an example, whenever Chen Xin or Gu Rong travels with Ning Fengzhi, they usually do as they please.

But Titled Douluo is Titled Douluo, and Soul Douluo is Soul Douluo.

Feng Tianyang and the others were simply expressing certain emotions by doing this.

In fact, Su Cheng was right.

At this moment, Feng Tianyang was indeed somewhat unhappy and wary.

As an elder of the Spirit Hall, Su Cheng's every move carries extraordinary significance, regardless of his age or strength.

If it were a private visit, that would be one thing, but to come to the Godwind Academy and swagger in through the main gate, only to have a student casually notify the Education Committee without even giving prior notice, is rather arrogant.

Not only that, he caused such a commotion after entering the room, attracting a large number of students to come and watch, and he walked slowly, waiting for more and more students to gather.

Feng Tianyang didn't believe that Su Cheng had no other purpose in doing this.

The situation on the mainland is currently turbulent, and the relationship between the Spirit Hall and the Two Empires is tense—a fact that everyone is aware of but doesn't explicitly state.

At this critical juncture, the fact that the other party has come to the Godwind Academy is hardly a good thing.

However, he shouldn't act rashly before figuring out Su Cheng's methods.

But I didn't take it too seriously.

In this world, everything depends on strength.

What good is it for a young man who is not even twenty years old and was only a Soul King a little over a year ago? Even if he holds the title of Elder of the Spirit Hall, what can he do?

That's why he dared to openly greet him in his college uniform.

If it were Chrysanthemum Douluo or Ghost Douluo here, he would naturally handle it differently.

They don't even need the other person to come in; they will go to the door to greet them on their own.

"... tap, tap, tap..."

The soft footsteps echoed in Feng Tianyang's ears; it was the sound of Su Cheng walking from afar.

At first he didn't pay attention, but he quickly realized that even Soul Master with a cultivation level of Soul Elder or above wouldn't make such a loud noise when walking, let alone Su Cheng.

Moreover, apart from the soft footsteps, he heard no other noises.

Even the once ubiquitous, subtle sounds of the wind have vanished without a trace.

As Feng Tianyang watched the two young men walking slowly towards him, his expression gradually changed.

Not only him, but the eyes of the people around him also changed; they shared the same feeling as Feng Tianyang.

He could clearly see the academy students watching from afar, and he also knew that many High-level Spirit Masters were standing beside him.

But between himself and those people, it was as if there was a blurry frosted glass between them, as if they were in two different worlds.

"Thump, thump, thump..."

The approaching footsteps grew heavier and heavier, seemingly replacing his heartbeat.

No, it wasn't just my heartbeat; there was an extremely strange feeling even in my soul, as if I were being forcibly controlled by some force.

As Soul Douluo, Feng Tianyang is able to sense souls. As long as Soul Saint powerhouse possesses Martial Soul Avatar, they can use Soul Power to a certain extent.

But he had never heard of any means that could influence another person's soul.

"This is... a domain??" Feng Tianyang's heart sank.

Domains are naturally very rare for ordinary Soul Master.

Generally speaking, Soul Master can only develop a Domain-type Soul Skill when they reach the Titled Douluo level and possess their ninth Soul Skill, and the probability of this happening is extremely low.

Domain-type Soul Skill can only be obtained at the Titled Douluo level or through the innate skills of Martial Soul, and they can continue to grow as the Soul Master's strength increases.

Most domain-specific Soul Skill Soul Grandmaster's own strength while suppressing the opponent's.

But for Soul Master of his level, it's nothing special.

Those with weaker Soul Power than him, even possessing a domain, cannot change the course of the battle.

Those Titled Douluo could easily defeat him even without using their domains.

The only ones they fear are those Soul Masters who are also Soul Douluo Talent Domain.

But in all his years of life, this was the first time Feng Tianyang had ever seen such an exaggerated realm.

He wasn't even sure if it was a domain, or some kind of extremely special and terrifying area-of-effect Soul Skill.

He had never even heard of a realm that could influence the soul, let alone seen one.

"Damn it! Just how strong is he?!"

Feng Tianyang's pupils shrank to pinpoints, like a frightened beast, as he stared intently at Su Cheng, who had stopped in front of him.

As Su Cheng stopped walking, his heartbeat also stopped.

A brief pause in heartbeat would have little impact on Soul Master of his level.

What's frightening is the immense pressure that comes with that silent world.

He tried his best to channel his Soul Power, but his Soul Power, like his heartbeat at that moment, remained unresponsive.

He couldn't even unleash his Martial Soul!

Outside, a strange barrier isolates the physical body from the world.

Inside, that powerful domain was constantly oppressing the soul.

Feng Tianyang's face gradually turned pale...

After staring at each other for almost a minute, Su Cheng's smile widened, and he said, "Dean Feng, it's an honor to meet you."

As soon as he said this, Feng Tianyang felt the pressure ease.

Sweat poured from my body like a pump, soaking my clothes completely in the blink of an eye.

He felt a wave of relief wash over him, and the Soul Power he had been desperately trying to muster surged forth instantly. His Martial Soul involuntarily appeared behind him, with the wings of a magnificent, emerald-green eagle soaring high, its eight Soul Ring flashing around it.

Not only him, but the High-level Spirit Master around him had similar reactions, with their various Martial Soul Ring flashing incessantly, creating a dazzling and lively scene.

However, compared to Feng Tianyang and his two companions in front, the situation was much more exaggerated for the teachers behind them. In a short time, everyone was thrown about, and several teachers even nearly fell to the ground.

This is not because of Su Cheng.

He did indeed use the hypnotic techniques of the Five Elements Domain and Soul Power to suppress these High-level Spirit Masters.

His Five Elements Domain has now undergone multiple evolutions and has also undergone a fundamental transformation due to his Innate Power, making it effortless to deal with these people.

If he were facing a group of Titled Douluo, he wouldn't be able to control the Soul Power and would have to completely suppress them.

However, these teachers are not very strong, so he can easily divide his power according to their different strengths and target them separately without going too far.

In fact, those faculty and staff were affected by the powerful Soul Power spread by Feng Tianyang and the other two Soul Douluo.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't have been this bad. The main problem was that they weren't prepared beforehand. After fully resisting the pressure from Su Cheng, they suddenly relaxed and naturally couldn't react in time.

The students watching from a distance exchanged bewildered glances, completely confused about what had just happened.

It seemed like they had only been looking at each other for a moment when the teachers couldn't hold back and started performing.

Su Cheng's smile widened, and he teased, "Dean Feng, there's no need to be so enthusiastic."

Upon hearing this, Feng Tianyang forcibly suppressed his inner shock, anger, and fear, and said in a deep voice, "This old man is ignorant of the world and has made Elder Su laugh at me."

After glancing discreetly at the students watching, he continued, "Elder Su, please come with me to the Education Committee for a chat. Tea has been prepared there."

"Is it just my imagination? I feel like the dean's expression is a bit off..." On the other side, Feng Xiaotian looked at Feng Qingyu and whispered.

"You're not mistaken." Feng Qingyu's voice was low and somewhat worried. "The Old Man seems to be frightened."

As she spoke, she was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

I haven't seen my teacher for just over a year, and he's become this much stronger?

She didn't even use her Martial Soul, and didn't reveal any aura, yet she still scared her grandfather, who was a high-level Soul Douluo, like this.

No, to be precise, it scared that whole group of people.

Keep in mind, this is inside an academy.

In this place, if the three Soul Douluo and all the teachers joined forces, they would be able to suppress even the weakest Titled Douluo in a short period of time.

The conversation between the two sides continued in the square in front of the Education Committee.

Su Cheng looked at Feng Tianyang and said "No rush," then glanced at the large number of students gathered around him and said with a smile, "I see there are quite a few people from the academy today. How about a friendly sparring match, so I can see the teaching level of your school?"

He spoke in a loud voice, which was heard by both teachers and students present, and everyone felt a slight unease.

Feng Tianyang's expression turned even uglier as he suppressed his anger and said, "Elder Su, why do you have to do this? With your status, isn't this a bit too much... a bit too much bullying?"

Considering Su Cheng's current age, the phrase "bullying the younger" suddenly became difficult to utter.

However, if the other party insists on demanding it right now, he really doesn't have a good solution.

Although they are of different statuses, they are still the same age, and their strength is undeniable. They can't resist whatever the other wants to do, but naturally they are not convinced.

At worst, let him play a few matches, then leave.

Since the other party clearly had ill intentions, it's not necessarily a bad thing that the matter was resolved so easily.

Moreover, those students understood how terrifying Su Cheng was; the gap between them was too great, so they weren't traumatized.

Even if today's events get out, it's just that we were defeated by the Spirit Hall elders. What's so shameful about that?

To his surprise, Su Cheng nodded in agreement with his statement.

"Hmm, what you said makes a good point..."

As Su Cheng spoke slowly, he turned his head and glanced at the hundreds of students watching.

As his gaze shifted, everyone instinctively looked away.

If Su Cheng had only targeted and suppressed the teachers earlier, now his aura covered the entire area.

Like a magnificent divine sword standing between heaven and earth, its sharpness is so striking that no one dares to look directly at it.

"In that case, let her come."

At this moment, Su Cheng suddenly restrained his aura and stepped aside, drawing Zhu Zhuqing out.

"Who is this...?" Feng Tianyang was taken aback upon hearing this.

He hadn't really paid much attention to Zhu Zhuqing just now.

Although this girl was extremely beautiful, her aura was equally sharp and powerful.

But compared to the pressure Su Cheng exerted on him, Zhu Zhuqing was clearly insignificant.

Su Cheng didn't mind. The Spirit Master Competition is held every few years, and it's normal that older Soul Master don't pay much attention to it, except for the champion team or outstanding individuals.

Even the champion team wasn't something everyone had heard of. If it weren't for the appearance of a Soul Saint in the previous competition, it might not have caused such a huge sensation.

"Oh, Dean Feng probably doesn't care much about the activities of young people. She is Zhu Zhuqing from the Shrek Academy Team in the last Spirit Master Competition. She performed well and won the third place. However, she has now transferred to the Spirit Hall Academy. I'm sure many students at your school know her."

"I see." Feng Tianyang nodded in understanding, and breathed a slight sigh of relief, but his heart was still a little tense.

Third place?

The previous competition featured many strong competitors, so achieving this result is quite remarkable.

Moreover, judging from his sharp aura, although Su Cheng was covering for him, it was impossible to see his exact cultivation level, but it must be at least above the Soul King level.

Among the students in the academy, finding someone who can reliably defeat her would be quite difficult...

"Xiaotian, why don't you have a match with this student Zhu?"

After a moment's thought, Feng Tianyang decided to let Feng Xiaotian take the stage.

As Mutated Spirit possessor with Innate Full Soul Power, although Feng Xiaotian's Soul Power Level is not the highest among the students in the academy, his combat strength is second to none.

But before Feng Xiaotian could even take the stage, Su Cheng interrupted him.

"No, no, no, I don't think student matches are very interesting. I wonder if Dean Feng could personally give her some pointers?"

"What?!"

Feng Tianyang almost thought he had misheard.

Not only him, but everyone looked at Su Cheng and Zhu Zhuqing with astonishment.

An uproar arose among the students.

"Please enlighten me." A clear and pleasant female voice rang out, drowning out the noise in the room.

"Dean Feng, please go all out." At this moment, Su Cheng added with a smile.

I've been so busy at the end of the year, so my writing has been a bit shorter these past few days. I also have to go on a business trip in a couple of days, but I'll get back to normal once I'm done with that.
