"I am currently a level 56 Soul King!"
Yang Ziyuan did not feel the need to hide his own strength.
After all, the people present were not outsiders, so there was no reason for him to be secretive.
"A level 56 Soul King?!! Are you joking? If I remember correctly, you should be a year younger than me, right?"
Shui Bing'er widened her eyes in shock, as if she could not believe this fact.
After all, with her innate full soul power talent, she had only reached level 24 after training until now.
How could he possibly surpass her? Not to mention, he had one less year of cultivation time than she did! Even if they were both geniuses with innate full soul power, the gap shouldn't be this large, right?
"Yeah, cousin. Although you're very handsome, this time I'm siding with my sister!"
Shui Yue'er, standing to the side, also wore an expression of disbelief.
Because if Yang Ziyuan really were a level 56 Soul King, wouldn't that make her look like a complete failure?
After all, the age gap between them wasn't that large, so how could there be such a massive difference?
Seeing their skeptical expressions, Yang Ziyuan gave a bitter smile.
"Ziyuan, why don't you show them your soul rings? Let them understand that there is always someone better, and there is always a heaven beyond the heaven!"
Hearing Shui Wuyue's suggestion, Yang Ziyuan felt troubled.
"Is that appropriate?"
"What's inappropriate about it? Don't worry, they know what should be said and what shouldn't!"
Immediately, he revealed his soul rings.
The moment they saw the hundred-thousand-year soul ring, Shui Bing'er and the other girl gasped in shock: "A hundred-thousand-year soul ring?!!"
"That's right, it is a hundred-thousand-year soul ring! How about that? You were questioning Ziyuan's talent, weren't you? Now you know that you can't judge a book by its cover, just as you can't measure the ocean with a bucket!"
Seeing the shocked expressions on Shui Bing'er and the other girl, Shui Wuyue teased them.
Hearing these words, Shui Yue'er and her sister nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, yes, Grandma is right!"
Turning back, Shui Yue'er asked with great curiosity: "Cousin, how did you manage to absorb a soul ring beyond your limit?"
Hearing this, Yang Ziyuan didn't know how to explain.
He couldn't exactly tell her it was due to the unique properties of his martial soul and the rewards from his God Trial, could he?
At this moment, Shui Wuyue quickly stepped forward to smooth things over for Yang Ziyuan: "Yue'er, I know you are curious about your cousin's soul ring that exceeds the limit. However, there are some things you are not yet ready to touch! Do not ask again, do you understand?"
"Oh~"
Hearing Shui Wuyue's warning, Shui Yue'er had no choice but to lower her head obediently.
Seeing this, Yang Ziyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, Shui Wuyue led them to the dean's office.
Inside, a woman was waiting for Shui Wuyue to return to handle a recent matter for the academy.
This matter concerned the exchange tournament between the Five Elements Academies.
Before every Soul Master Tournament, the participating teams from the Five Elements Academies would visit each other for exchanges.
This time was no exception!
However, because the participating teams of this generation were too weak, their Tianshui Academy had not taken the initiative to go to other academies for exchanges.
But to their surprise, the Blazing Fire Academy had actually taken the initiative to come knocking!
Although they had an elemental advantage, in the face of absolute strength, that slight advantage was not even worth mentioning.
"Dean, you're finally back! Do you know..."
Seeing Shui Wuyue enter, the woman stood up immediately.
Seeing that Shui Wuyue was already aware, the woman was just about to ask if there was a solution when she noticed a boy following behind her!
"Who are you? How did you get in?"
Hearing this, Yang Ziyuan felt speechless.
Why did everyone ask that?
However, it was understandable!
After all, before this, Tianshui Academy had never recruited any boys!
After learning about Yang Ziyuan's situation, the woman's expression became complicated.
"Dean, are you really going to recruit him into Tianshui Academy? If the people in the Council of Elders find out about this, I'm afraid it will cause all sorts of trouble!"
"You don't need to worry about this matter, just go ahead and do it! If anything happens, I will take responsibility!"
"Alright, then I will take my leave."
After the woman left, Yang Ziyuan asked curiously, "Grandmother, what did she mean by the Council of Elders just now?"
"The Council of Elders? Actually, they are the high-level administrators from the previous generation of our Tianshui Academy. Unlike other academies, our Tianshui Academy allows them to choose to join the Council of Elders and remain at the academy even after they step down from their positions."
"Then why did she say that if I joined Tianshui Academy, they would cause trouble?"
"That is because that group of people are all unteachable old stubborns! They will defend the regulations of Tianshui Academy to the death! At the same time, they can, to a certain extent, overrule my decisions as the dean! Now, do you understand why your grandmother cannot abolish that strict enrollment requirement?"
Shui Wuyue sighed.
She had encountered this kind of thing many times.
However, she was helpless to do anything about it.
Because she had no leverage to contend with that group of people!
But now, things were different!
As long as Yang Ziyuan achieved victory with absolute strength in the upcoming exchange tournament, those people would likely not object.
After all, in their hearts, they still hoped that Tianshui Academy could be prosperous and thriving!
After listening to Shui Wuyue's explanation, Yang Ziyuan finally understood.
No wonder she looked so dejected when she mentioned this matter last time.
So, it was because the matter had been rejected by the Council of Elders!
"Grandmother, then what should I do? If you can't convince them, how can I join Tianshui Academy?"
"That depends on your performance in the upcoming event!"
"Performance? What kind of performance? Don't tell me you want me to reveal my spirit rings for them to see again?"
Regarding this, Yang Ziyuan felt very confused.

"It doesn't have to be that troublesome!"
Immediately after, Shui Wuyue told him about the Five Elements Academy Exchange Tournament.
"Grandmother, did you plan this all along, wanting me to help you solve the trouble of Blazing Fire Academy?"
"Uh, you can't put it that way~ At the very least, you will establish your prestige and gain fame. Who knows, you might even win a beauty's heart!"
Seeing that her little scheme had been seen through, Shui Wuyue did not deny it.
After all, Yang Ziyuan had indeed solved a major problem for her.
"I'll pass on that! However, I am a bit curious, are the people from Blazing Fire Academy very strong? Why do you seem to have no confidence at all? You have to know, your attributes are a natural counter to theirs!"
Hearing Yang Ziyuan's question, Shui Wuyue gave a bitter smile.
"Hehe, you don't know! Water and fire attributes have always countered each other; it all comes down to who has the greater strength! This time, the strongest member of our Tianshui Academy's participating team is only a soul sect who has just reached level 42. The rest of the team members are not up to the task! Conversely, Blazing Fire Academy is coming on aggressively! I don't know where that old guy Huo Linfeng found his people. Besides their captain Huang Tao, who is a level 43 soul sect, there are two other level 41 soul sects! Therefore, I had to set my sights on you!"
"One against three? That is indeed a bit difficult to fight!"
After all, not everyone possessed the strength to fight above their rank like he did!
"How about it? Can you handle it?"
Knowing that Yang Ziyuan would not use his spirit rings, she couldn't help but feel a bit worried at this moment.
"Don't worry, Grandmother! Even if there were twice as many opponents of this level, I could easily handle them!"
Seeing Yang Ziyuan's confident appearance, Shui Wuyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Shui Yue'er, who was standing to the side, was completely bewildered.
"Grandmother, what is there to worry about? With Cousin's strength, isn't bullying them just like bullying vegetables?"
Before Shui Wuyue could explain, Shui Bing'er stepped forward.
"My dear sister, don't forget what his spirit ring configuration is! If Cousin dares to use his spirit rings, his situation will become dangerous!"
