[Level 10 Soul Power, a natural progression, but the foundation is incredibly solid.]

[And his Three-Eyed Demon had also finally completed its final transformation.]

[Although its appearance was still somewhat endearingly clumsy, its eyes now held the true majesty of a dragon.]

[A low growl directly caused Yu Xiaogang beside him to fall onto the ground with a plop.]

[He tremblingly summoned his own Three-Eyed Demon, and comparing the two, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.]

[Yu Yuanzhen could no longer hold back, laughing heartily towards the sky, his joy overflowing.]

[The facts proved that Yu Xiaotian's theory was perfect, and this path had been paved.]

[At this moment, he had already determined in his heart that the family's future must be entrusted to this child.]

[And at the same time, Yu Luomian, who had no idea what had happened,]

[was still drinking tea in his mansion, waiting to see a joke.]

[Upon hearing the scout report that the father and son had stayed in the pharmacy for a whole day,]

[the corner of his mouth curled into a cold, mocking sneer.]

[Hmph, using such lewd items to refine medicine, what a colossal joke.]

[He could not wait to see the joke that this pair, who were like brothers to him, would become.]

White World.

The Sky Screen froze on Yu Luomian's confident face.

The audience in the White World could no longer hold back.

"Hahahaha! Help me! How can there be such a textbook clown?"

"Yu Luomian is still coldly snorting there, he has no idea what he's about to face!"

"They're evolving divine beasts inside, and he's waiting outside to see a joke?"

"This is what they call an information gap killing someone! The second master is going to lose face to his grandma's house with this move!"

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

The atmosphere was extremely bizarre.

All eyes, intentionally or unintentionally, glanced towards Yu Luomian in the corner.

At this moment, Yu Luomian seemed to have experienced social death.

He covered his face with his hands, wishing he could bury himself underground.

He recalled that time, and indeed, he had gone through such a mental process.

Back then, he was thinking that once this father and son failed at alchemy and ended up smelling foul.

He would stand on the moral high ground and mock them fiercely.

And the result?

"I can't face anyone... I really can't face anyone..."

Yu Luomian was overcome with sorrow.

It was foreseeable that as the Sky Screen played, he would play the role of the villain who got slapped in the face many times in the future.

This was a public execution for the entire continent!

Meanwhile, in the pharmacy, the atmosphere was completely different.

The pharmacy elder from back then was now completely white-haired.

He was surrounded by a group of young apprentices.

He stroked his beard and boasted with a proud expression:

"Back in the day, Dragon God Douluo was only six years old when he came to me with a pile of books."

"I saw then that this child was extraordinary!"

"Anyone else would have kicked this little brat out long ago."

"But who am I? I saw his potential at a glance!"

"Back then, young Master Tian asked me about the heat control, who knew that he would later surpass his master!"

The apprentices listened with shining eyes and faces full of admiration.

The pharmacy elder felt smug inside:

Fortunately, he didn't make a mistake back then.

If he had rejected Yu Xiaotian, how would he have the face to brag here now?

That was the most correct investment he had ever made in his life!

Back mountain.

Bibi Dong looked at the spirited young boy on the Sky Screen, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips.

She turned to look at Yu Xiaotian, a hint of playful annoyance in her eyes:

"So you guys developed the formula for whale rubber this early?"

Yu Xiaotian nodded:

"Yeah, back then, to supplement Three-Eyed Demon's health, I almost emptied my dad's private savings."

Bibi Dong glanced at him with a half-smile, her cheeks flushing slightly:

"Hmph, remember the first time you gave me this thing? A black lump, and you said it was a good thing."

"At the time, I thought you had ulterior motives for me!"

Thinking of her complicated feelings of shame, anger, and a little anticipation back then, Bibi Dong felt her face heat up.

After all, at that time, whale rubber had a notorious reputation as an aphrodisiac.

"So young, and already thinking about such things."

Bibi Dong said coquettishly.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaotian immediately sat up straight.

With a righteous expression, he said:

"That's because your mind is twisted!"

"You're always thinking about improper things, that's why you thought of those uses."

"I was trying to help you improve your physique, to help you absorb spirit rings better!"

"A proper person?"

Bibi Dong snorted:

"Would a proper person give that kind of thing to a girl? But..."

Her gaze softened:

"That piece of Ten Thousand Year Whale Rubber really helped me a lot back then."

Although as the Saintess of Martial Soul Hall, she didn't lack resources.

But treasures like whale rubber, which could increase the age of spirit rings without side effects.

Were rare and hard to come by.

It was precisely because of Yu Xiaotian's gift.

Her physique far surpassed her peers, laying a solid foundation for the future.

"You must understand, even though my teacher dotes on me, my surname isn't Qian."

Bibi Dong sighed, "That whale rubber is more precious than ten or a hundred times its weight in soul coins."

"We have to thank the Dragon God Douluo for his foresight."

Yu Xiaotian was speechless, "Yes, yes, Your Majesty the Pope!"

Beside him, Yu Xiaogang felt he couldn't take any more of this public display of affection!

Black World.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Inside the sect's main hall, a joyous atmosphere prevailed.

All the elders and protectors looked at Sect Master Ning Fengzhi with almost worshipful eyes.

When the Sky Screen first mentioned the whale rubber, most people were still hesitant.

They even felt ashamed because of the whale rubber's reputation.

Only Ning Fengzhi, despite all objections.

Used the sect's reserves to acquire it on a large scale across the continent.

Just now, as the Sky Screen confirmed the heaven-defying effects of the Ten Thousand Year Whale Rubber.

The market price of whale rubber had increased more than tenfold in just half an hour!

And it was now unavailable for purchase!

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's warehouse was now piled not with whale rubber, but with mountains of gold and silver!

It was also a future strategic reserve!

"Sect Master is wise! Truly a divine being!"

"With these resources, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's disciples' weakness of frail bodies will completely become history!"

Ning Fengzhi fanned himself with his folding fan.

Although he appeared calm on the surface, he couldn't help but feel immensely proud.

He had won big with this gamble.

"The Ten Thousand Year Whale Rubber sent to Rongrong should be arriving soon, right?"

He looked out the window, his eyes full of affection:

"Rongrong, this is all I can do for you, Dad."

Shrek Academy

The atmosphere here was so sour it could ferment vinegar.

Ma Hongjun watched the scene on the Sky Screen of Yu Xiaotian consuming the Ten Thousand Year Whale Rubber.

He was practically drooling:

"That's Ten Thousand Year Whale Rubber! If I could have just one bite, would my Evil Fire be suppressed?"

Oscar also looked envious:

"Forget ten thousand years, if you gave me a thousand-year one, I'd be willing to call Yu Xiaotian grandpa."

Flender stood to the side.

He was so embarrassed his toes could dig a three-bedroom apartment out of the ground.

As the dean, he also wanted to give the children the best.

The moment he saw the Sky Screen, he went to the black market.

But he was too poor.

He only managed to get some decades-old inferior whale rubber.

That stuff smelled fishy and its effects were probably negligible.

It might be useful if a six-year-old child ate it.

But for the Shrek Seven Devils, who were already over ten years old, it was better than nothing.

Just then, a commotion came from the school gate.
