"Su Ze, I know you are very strong, but after these days of intensive training with my uncle, I have become even stronger."
"We will make it to the finals, so I hope you don't fall along the way and disappoint us."
A large part of the reason Yu Tianheng left Heaven Dou Royal Academy was actually because of Su Ze.
At Heaven Dou Royal Academy, everyone remembered how he had been defeated by Su Ze, who was nearly five years his junior.
The reputation he had built up in the academy was wiped out in one fell swoop by Su Ze.
What was worse was that Su Ze was naturally handsome.
Many of the female fans who used to support him had now turned into Su Ze's fans.
Every time he saw familiar faces in the crowd holding up signs for Su Ze, Yu Tianheng would be driven mad with rage.
That was why he was so desperate to defeat Su Ze.
On a personal level, Yu Tianheng's confidence had already collapsed after that challenge right after he broke through to Soul Elder.
His only hope now rested on Shrek Academy.
Su Ze felt no ripples in his heart at Yu Tianheng's provocation.
Yu Tianheng was not Tang San; without the protagonist's halo, it was impossible for him to defeat him in this lifetime.
"Yu Tianheng, it's daytime right now. You should save those kinds of dreams for the night."
Hearing Su Ze's indifferent reply, Yu Tianheng was instantly enraged.
At this moment, Tang San, who was standing behind him, stepped forward and spoke.
"Su Ze, you think we are dreaming, but there is no point in saying more."
"We will see each other on the arena floor. I will take back Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlit Night with my own hands."
Tang San's tone was filled with confidence; he was not far from becoming a Soul Ancestor now.
Such strength was undoubtedly that of a genius in the All Continent Elite Competition.
Therefore, even though Tang San could not see through Su Ze's cultivation, he felt that the other party was at most on the verge of breaking through to Soul King.
Once he broke through to Soul Ancestor, combined with the tacit coordination of their Shrek Seven Devils, he would definitely be able to defeat this guy who had brought him such shame in the past on the competition stage!
To prove it for his teacher!
Su Ze looked at the brimming confidence of Tang San and smiled, saying, "Tang San, I have to say, the increase in your Soul Power has exceeded my expectations."
"If the opponent you were facing were anyone else, then your words might truly come to pass."
"But it is a pity that you have encountered me."
As soon as the words fell, golden white lightning flickered across the surface of Su Ze's body. At the same time, the pressure of the Storm Dragon King surged toward the group in front of him.
The violent Extreme Thunder, combined with the pressure of the Storm Dragon King.
In an instant, the expressions of the Shrek Group turned rigid.
Bystander Jia, who had been casually picked from the Blue Tyrant Academy, was directly knocked to the ground by the impact of Su Ze's thunder.
Looking at the Bystander Jia lying on the ground, Dugu Yan, Ning Rongrong, and the others who had followed behind Su Ze happened to witness this scene.
Dugu Yan immediately directed mockery at Tang San, saying, "Is this the coordination of your Shrek Seven Devils? And you still want to defeat us!"
"You should try standing steady in front of Su Ze first."
Hearing Dugu Yan's mockery, Tang San's expression shifted.
Just as he was about to retort, another domineering flame rose, helping the Shrek Group alleviate the pressure.
Seeing this, Su Ze looked toward the distance.
He saw a tall woman walking over, arm-in-arm with Master.
There was no need to guess; it was Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Su Ze at the entrance, his expression darkening, his tone unkind.
"Su Ze, you do not respect knowledge. Although your talent is quite good, you have ultimately embarked on a wrong path."
"Tang San and Yu Tianheng losing to you is only temporary."
"In the upcoming tournament, our Shrek Academy will use our Strength to tell you who is right and who is wrong."
Hearing Yu Xiaogang's mockery, Su Ze hadn't even had a chance to speak.
At this moment, Dugu Yan took the lead, pulling Su Ze behind her with a look of disgust, while saying disdainfully:
"Yu Xiaogang, is it? And beside you is your illicit cousin Liu Erlong, right?"
"How did your Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Family produce two degenerates like you? Do you not know basic ethics?"
"Being all lovey-dovey in public, you truly disgust me to death."
Dugu Yan spoke while pulling Su Ze and Ye Lengleng back.
Upon hearing Dugu Yan's words, the newly joined Shi Family Brothers also widened their eyes.
"Is what Sister Dugu said true? That guy named Yu Xiaogang is having an affair with his own cousin?"
"They look decent enough, I never expected them to be such people."
The words of Dugu Yan and the Shi Family Brothers attracted many students from other academies walking out of the clubhouse.
In an instant, the eyes of the entire scene turned toward Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong.
Incredulous expressions appeared on everyone's faces.
Among them, Suigetsu of Skywater Academy looked at Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang, her eyes widening.
Her expression shifted from curiosity to pure scorn.
And she was not the only one.
Feeling the gazes of scorn from all around, Yu Xiaogang pulled his hand from Liu Erlong's embrace as if he had been electrocuted.
However, before he could pull it away, Liu Erlong grabbed it firmly.
Liu Erlong looked at Dugu Yan before her with a gloomy expression.
"Little girl, it seems no one taught you to respect a strong person."
"Today, I will teach you that lesson."
As she spoke, burning Soul Power surged into the sky from Liu Erlong's body.
Instantly enveloped in Dragon Fire, Liu Erlong transformed into a streak of flame and charged straight at Dugu Yan.
As a Soul Saint, Liu Erlong's speed was extremely fast.
In the blink of an eye, a dragon claw covered in Crimson Scales appeared directly in front of Dugu Yan.
Just as Liu Erlong's claw was about to strike, Su Ze moved, using Gale Rush to flash in front of Dugu Yan.
Immediately following, a voice of Majesty rang out instantly.
"Shatter the Darkness with Thunder!"
In an instant, Su Ze's hair turned white, and Furious Lightning swirled around him.
While activating his Ultimate Move Thunderous Force, Su Ze unleashed his Second Skill.
A powerful Lightning Pillar descended in response, directly and forcefully suppressing Liu Erlong's attack.
Taking advantage of this hard crowd-control phase, Su Ze rose directly into the air.
The previously Clear Sky was instantly covered in Dark Clouds Gathering. Su Ze floated in mid-air, his White Hair flowing, his upper body surrounded by lightning.
He looked just like a Thunder God.
Su Ze looked down at Liu Erlong Condescendingly, his eyes filled with coldness.
So what if she was a Soul Saint!
This was the area around the venue; Emperor Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi were all nearby.
The battle could not last long; someone would inevitably step in to Obstruct them.
In a situation where he could only fight for a short time, Su Ze was not afraid of a Soul Saint at all.
"Immoral one, do you know that the Warning Bell has already sounded in the Raging Thunder?"
As Su Ze's voice rang out with Majesty, the dark clouds in the sky condensed into a Thunderstorm.
Carrying the magnificent might of heaven, a thick Lightning Pillar shot straight toward Liu Erlong.
Extreme Thunder inherently represented the justice of the world.
Coupled with the fact that Liu Erlong already had a guilty conscience.
Hearing Su Ze's words, combined with that magnificent heavenly thunder, for a moment, Liu Erlong actually had the illusion that she was a Sinner, destined to be judged.
The moment this mindset of a sinner appeared in her heart, it only further enraged Liu Erlong.
In an instant, seven Soul Rings appeared behind her.
"Kid, you want to judge me!"
"I will make you die!"
Instantly, the Soul Rings behind Liu Erlong lit up.
Flames directly condensed into a massive dragon head, charging toward Su Ze in the sky.
Seeing this, Su Ze did not Hesitate to increase the pressure.
"Only the most awe-inspiring thunder can shatter the most Heavy darkness."
In an instant, countless Lightning Pillars descended once more.
The violent Extreme Thunder collided directly with the dragon head formed by the Flame.
Boom!
A storm erupted from the collision of soul skills.
In an instant, the venue was reduced to a ruin.
Su Ze in the Sky remained floating in the air, completely unscathed, looking down at Liu Erlong below.
Seeing that Su Ze had not suffered any damage, Liu Erlong's expression changed.
How could this kid withstand a full-force strike from a Soul Saint like her?
Just as Liu Erlong prepared to strike again, an angry shout rang out instantly.
"Stop!"
The moment the angry shout echoed, the pressure of several Titled Douluo locked onto Liu Erlong.
The next moment, Xue Qinghe, dressed in fine robes with an icy expression, walked out from the venue, glaring at Liu Erlong with ill intent.
"Dean Liu, what are you doing? Bullying the young in front of the Advanced Elite Competition!"
Looking at Xue Qinghe and feeling the pressure of the Titled Douluo on him, the impulsive Liu Erlong instantly calmed down.
At this time, Dugu Yan had already regained her composure. She immediately went to the front of Xue Qinghe and said:
"Crown Prince, this Liu Erlong and their Shrek Academy not only blocked us at the entrance of the venue."
"They even tried to assassinate Su Ze. You must punish them severely."
After Dugu Yan finished speaking, Ning Rongrong also stepped forward. She had always looked down on the incestuous behavior of Liu Erlong.
She hadn't expected this mad woman to dare to attack them in public, so she immediately followed up by saying:
"That's right, Your Majesty, this Liu Erlong must be punished severely. She just tried to attack us, too."
Hearing the accusations from Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan, the group from Shrek clenched their fists, glaring at Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan with anger.
Especially at Ning Rongrong.
Ning Rongrong's current accusation made them feel as if they had been betrayed.
To this, Ning Rongrong simply glared back without the slightest bit of politeness.
Hearing the words of Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong, Xue Qinghe looked at Liu Erlong with a grim expression. After thinking for a moment, he said:
"Dean Liu, you dared to take matters into your own hands at the venue; you must be punished severely!"
"You must pay to have the entrance to the venue repaired. At the same time, you must pay two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins in compensation to Su Ze for the attack!"
"Otherwise, your academy's qualification for the competition will be revoked immediately."
Hearing the icy words of Emperor Xue Ye, the expression of Liu Erlong changed.
The repair costs for the venue plus the two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins in compensation.
It was equivalent to saying she had to pay nearly three hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.
For Liu Erlong, this was undoubtedly a massive loss.
Even if she took it out, she would feel a great deal of pain.
However, the icy gaze of Xue Qinghe made Liu Erlong know that she had no room to argue.
"Very well, Your Majesty, I will pay the compensation!"
"That is good. Dean Liu, do not let me know there is a next time."
"Understood, Crown Prince."
After speaking, Liu Erlong left with an ashen face, while Yu Xiaogang looked at Su Ze in the Sky with eyes full of anger.
"Su Ze, in the competition, we will make you pay the price."
After dropping this harsh threat, Yu Xiaogang also walked away quickly.
Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others at the lead exchanged glances, their expressions extremely ugly.
Today at the venue, they had lost face in a big way.
Not only would the matter regarding Yu Xiaogang be widely spread.
But more importantly, a Soul Saint had actually failed to take down Su Ze.
Looking at Su Ze in the sky, who resembled a Thunder God, Tang San had a bad premonition in his heart.
Could their Shrek Academy really defeat Su Ze?
Seeing the Shrek Group leave, Su Ze slowly dissipated his thunder and landed on the ground.
The moment Su Ze landed, Xue Qinghe walked over.
"How is it, Brother Su Ze? What do you think of this outcome?"
"Liu Erlong is, after all, a member of the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan. Making them pay a fine is already the limit of what my authority can achieve."
There was a hint of helplessness in Xue Qinghe's tone. Although the Heaven Dou Empire was an empire, it ultimately lacked any strong person capable of intimidating all sides.
Facing the Upper Three Clans, one ultimately still has to lower their head.
In his identity as Xue Qinghe, Qian Renxue could currently only manage this much.
Regarding Qian Renxue's words, Su Ze smiled with indifference.
"Brother Xue's proposed solution is excellent. I have absolutely no objections."
For Su Ze, he actually hoped that Tang San and the others would participate in the All Continent Elite Competition.
After all, he was very eager to see the strength of Tang San, the Child of Destiny.
Besides, money was more important to him than an apology.
After all, that was two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.
This was an unexpected windfall.
With this unexpected windfall, he had a very high probability of breaking through to Soul Emperor before the finals.
The improvement of strength was what was real.
Apologies were all hollow.
Just after the battle ended, the news of the fight between Su Ze and Liu Erlong was immediately spread.
A Soul Saint dealing with a youngster not even fifteen years old had actually failed to take him down instantly.
Moreover, Liu Erlong herself was considered a renowned strong person among Soul Saints.
In an instant, Su Ze's reputation as a genius became widely known to the contestants of the various academies.
On the other side.
Shrek Academy.
After seeing Yu Xiaogang off, Liu Erlong rushed back to the academy in a hurry to scrape together the money.
Thinking of how Liu Erlong had been comforting him before she left, Yu Xiaogang clenched his fists.
It was all that damned Su Ze.
He had even kindly offered him a few pointers back at the academy and had even considered taking the other party as a disciple.
This damned commoner was only relying on his good luck and talent.
If only he hadn't awakened a waste martial soul, with his status as the son of the Patriarch of the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Family—
Would this petty Su Ze dare to act so rampant in front of him?
Unreconciled, Yu Xiaogang clenched his fist. Seeing this, a flash of anger also crossed Tang San's eyes.
As his teacher, the person who bestowed knowledge upon him, Yu Xiaogang was his most important guide.
He had even helped his once-feeble Blue Silver Grass reach its current level.
Coupled with the concept of Heaven, Earth, Sovereign, Parent, Teacher, seeing his teacher in distress made Tang San extremely angry as well.
"Teacher, don't worry. At the Elite Master Competition, we will definitely be able to prove ourselves."
"As for that guy Su Ze, the humiliation he showed you today—I will make him pay it back with interest in the future."
"As for you and Teacher Erlong, it isn't your fault; it's just that they cannot understand."
Hearing Tang San's words, Yu Xiaogang turned his head abruptly to look at the Tang San before him.
The anger he originally felt was instantly replaced by a flicker of hope.
That's right, he had Tang San.
A genius with Twin Martial Souls.
The son of Douluo Tang Hao.
As long as Shrek Academy could pull off an upset and win the tournament championship, then he, Yu Xiaogang, would be able to gain the recognition of his family and everyone on the continent.
Thinking of this, a light radiated from Yu Xiaogang's eyes. Looking at Tang San before him, he said excitedly:
"Tang San, the hope for proving my theories rests entirely on you!"
