Codename: Dragon God, Demonstrating Might in the Soul Fighting Arena!

The Sky Screen image flowed.

[Thunder Academy]

[Just as the students had finished their devilish training and were collapsing from exhaustion, Dean Lei Tian walked in with a beaming smile.]

["Young Master! Stop training for now, everyone take a break!"]

[Lei Tian raised the letter in his hand, his voice booming.]

["Good news! The invitation for the Five Elemental Academies' exchange competition has arrived!"]

["This time, the host is Skywater Academy!"]

["Besides us, Divine Wind, Blazing Fire, Elephant Armor... oh right, and Blue Tyrant Academy, which just forcefully squeezed into the spots, will all participate."]

[Upon hearing the words "Blue Tyrant Academy," Yu Xiaotian's hand, which was wiping sweat, paused slightly, and his brow twitched.]

[He seemed to have thought of something, and a curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.]

["Blue Tyrant Academy? Interesting..."]

[A few days later, Skywater City.]

[This city was exceptionally lively today.]

[Representative teams from the Elemental Academies from all over had gathered here, and young Soul Masters were everywhere on the streets and alleys.]

[And before the main group arrived, a small figure had already arrived here in advance.]

[It was Yu Xiaotian.]

[He was impatient with the slow progress of following the main group and had come to the Skywater City Great Soul Arena alone.]

["Actual combat is the only standard for testing strength."]

["And inefficiently crushing weaklings is just a waste of life!"]

[Yu Xiaotian directly registered his qualifications at the Soul Arena.]

[However, he didn't start from Iron Soul Master like a newcomer, but directly bought a Bronze Soul Master badge to practice with.]

[Ordinary Soul Masters, especially those at level ten or so with ordinary Martial Souls, were no longer qualified to be his opponents.]

[And the codename he chose was: Dragon God!]

Seeing this scene, countless civilian Soul Masters were stunned.

"Holy crap? You can actually buy Soul Arena badges?!"

"You said the Soul Fighting Arena was supreme and impartial! Isn't this cheating?"

"The brother upstairs is too naive. This is the Douluo Continent. If you have money and power, you can do whatever you want."

"The so-called rules are made for people without connections!"

Black World.

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan

Yu Xiaogang saw this scene.

His brows furrowed tightly into the shape of the character "川" (chuān), his eyes full of disapproval.

"Opportunism! This is pure opportunism!"

In his opinion, a Soul Master's growth must be built step by step.

If he were teaching students, he would absolutely require them to start from the lowest rank, Iron Soul Master!

Accumulating experience match by match, that was the right way!

Yu Xiaotian's act of directly buying ranks was a blasphemy against the spirit of Soul Fighting!

Shrek Academy.

Dai Mubai was also stunned when he saw this scene, his evil eyes widening:

"So badges can be bought?"

"Then what was the point of me fighting for my life in the Suotuo City Soul Fighting Arena for years, losing over twenty matches?"

Tang San, standing beside him, couldn't help but feel extremely shocked.

Dean Flender and Teacher Yu Xiaogang had made them start from Iron Soul Master.

But the process of accumulating points was extremely long and tedious.

He had never imagined that there was such a shortcut.

After calming down and thinking, a hint of realization flashed in Tang San's eyes:

"Although it seems like opportunism, if you think about it carefully, the opponents at the Iron Soul Master level are mostly of uneven strength."

"For true geniuses, there isn't much training value."

"Although Yu Xiaotian took a shortcut, he greatly avoided wasting time in low-level matches."

"Seizing every minute and second to challenge stronger opponents, perhaps this is also a mindset of the strong."

He had to admit.

Yu Xiaotian truly understood compromise better than them when it came to efficiency.

[In the following days, he became the nightmare of low-level Soul Masters in the Skywater Great Soul Arena.]

[That short figure wearing a golden mask, "Dragon God," achieved a 10-win streak right from the start!]

[Even more terrifying, each of his battles lasted no more than 1 minute!]

[Regardless of whether the opponent was an Assault Type or Control Type, they were all sent flying with a single punch!]

[This terrifying record attracted countless speculations and probes. Everyone was asking: Who exactly is this monster who appeared out of nowhere?]

[And on the other side of the Soul Arena, there was also a frenzied figure.]

[Liu Erlong!]

[She had come here in advance to hone herself for revenge.]

[Wearing a crimson mask and named "Fire Dragon," she had also achieved a 5-win streak with her reckless fighting style!]

[Finally, a fated duel occurred under the matchmaking system.]

[The large screen scrolled, and two names were prominently displayed—Dragon God VS Fire Dragon!]

Liu Erlong in the Black World, seeing this, couldn't help but space out.

In her opinion.

Her other self from another world would inevitably clash with Yu Xiaotian.

She just didn't know what the outcome of that battle would be.

"Even Lei Bufan could be defeated, so my parallel world self is probably..."

Liu Erlong already had a vague premonition in her heart.

White World.

Thunder Academy.

Seeing the opponents in the Sky Screen being sent flying with a single punch by Yu Xiaotian.

Lei Bufan couldn't help but laugh gleefully:

"Heh heh, that's more like it! How can only our Thunder Academy get beaten?"

"These Soul Masters from Skywater City should also experience this feeling of despair!"

Lei Dong, standing to the side, looked puzzled and scratched his head. "Dad, if the fight is over in one minute, all instant kills, what kind of training effect can that have? Isn't this just bullying weaklings?"

Lei Bufan glared at his foolish son, wishing he could be made of iron. "You pig-brained idiot! Even if the fight was only a minute, don't forget, what level was Lord Yu Xiaotian at back then?"

"He defeated opponents who were level twenty-something with only level nineteen soul power!"

"I estimate that Lord Yu Xiaotian probably used less than twenty percent of his strength at the time!"

"That's his terrifying aspect!"

"And didn't you notice? His opponents were varied, including agility-attack, control, and defense types."

"Especially since the local Soul Masters in Skywater City are mostly water-attribute control types, this provides crucial intelligence for defeating Skywater Academy later!"

"This is called knowing yourself and your enemy, understand?!"

Only then did Lei Dong have a sudden realization, his face full of admiration. "As expected of you, Dad, you see things so clearly!"

Lei Bufan's old face flushed slightly, and he coughed awkwardly.

In truth, he only understood this principle much later.

But that didn't stop him from acting profound and unfathomable in front of his son.

Blue Tyrant Academy.

Liu Erlong watched herself, wearing a crimson mask, on the Sky Screen, a hint of nostalgia flashing in her eyes.

"I was truly a fearless novice back then..."

At that time, she had just arrived in Skywater City and won several matches in a row.

This gave her the illusion of being invincible among peers.

However, she met Lord Yu Xiaotian, and that battle brought her crashing back to reality.

It made her understand that there's always someone better.

"It's just..."

Liu Erlong's gaze turned somewhat strange. "Back then, I was completely fooled by Little Tian Brother, treating him as a confidant and friend."

"Looking back now, that bastard Little Tian Brother must have guessed my identity when he saw my martial soul back then, right?"

"And he still played dumb, he's so devious!"

"Although the Fire Dragon is a mutation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the clan's records do mention precedents!"

"With his knowledge, how could he possibly not know?"

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Bibi Dong saw this scene in the Sky Screen.

Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

She looked at Yu Xiaotian beside her with a half-smile.
