Breakthrough! Three-Star Dou Zong!

Breakthrough! Three-Star Dou Zong!

"No wonder you were recommended by Dean Hu!"

In the main hall, Grand Elder Su Qian was the first to speak.

"Thank you for your praise, Grand Elder." Jiang Han stared at Su Qian.

Meeting Jiang Han's gaze, Grand Elder Su Qian coughed dryly twice.

Just as Hu Qian had said, the boy was good in every way except for one strange habit: he liked staring at old men.

Su Qian had not believed it at first, thinking Hu Qian was joking with him. How could such a person exist in this world?

But now, he had no choice but to believe it.

Because from the moment Jiang Han entered the hall until now, four minutes had passed, and his eyes had remained fixed on him.

"Jiang Han, this is your Elder Token. Your duty this year will be to maintain order among the disciples entering the first aboveground level of the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower."

Su Qian kept it brief before adding, "I've already notified the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower. Take the Elder Token, and an elder there will arrange your post."

Progress: 100%

Host's gaze at target complete

At that moment, the gaze mission was completed.

Thinking of the coming breakthrough, Jiang Han did not dare linger for even a moment. He swiftly took the Elder Token from Su Qian's hand and immediately took his leave.

As for the duty Su Qian had assigned him.

Jiang Han was afraid he would not be able to suppress his laughter.

"What a decisive little fellow."

Watching Jiang Han vanish from sight in the blink of an eye, Su Qian could not help but sigh.

Jiang Han flew at high speed all the way.

Until he reached the depths of a deserted valley in the Endless Mountains.

At this moment.

Jiang Han's entire body had become translucent, radiating an eerie light.

The surrounding air let out piercing sounds of friction.

Boom!

With a deafening explosion, the trees around Jiang Han seemed to be blasted apart by an invisible force, sending rocks flying everywhere.

Feeling the surging power within him, Jiang Han slowly closed his eyes.

Gradually!

Within a hundred-meter radius centered on Jiang Han, the energy of heaven and earth began to churn violently.

As though drawn by some force, this energy of heaven and earth began to flood madly toward Jiang Han.

"What was that?"

"What happened?"

The Peak Dou Wang elder closest to Jiang Han immediately sensed the sudden anomaly and rose into the air.

"In that direction!"

"Judging by these energy fluctuations, it shouldn't be someone advancing to Dou Emperor. Could someone be breaking through to Dou Zong?"

"Could it be Vice Dean Hu?"

"Who knows? But shouldn't he be at the Outer Academy?"

"Now that you mention it, he's been stuck at Peak Dou Emperor for years. He might never break through in this lifetime."

"Then who could it be?"

"Let's go take a look and find out."

As the two elders spoke and set off, the energy turbulence above Jiang Han grew increasingly violent.

As time passed.

The energy began to wrap around Jiang Han in a regular pattern, its colors gradually becoming dazzling and varied.

Rumble—

More and more energy gathered around Jiang Han, and the roaring grew ever more deafening.

The violent energy between heaven and earth flowed continuously into Jiang Han's body.

When it reached a point of balance, another deafening blast erupted.

A massive pillar of energy burst from Jiang Han's body and shot into the sky.

At the same time, a terrifying pressure that made hearts tremble spread outward alongside vast Dou Qi.

Jiang Han let out a loud roar, as if stirring the energy of heaven and earth itself, and the space around him slowly warped.

In an instant, cracks spread rapidly like a spiderweb, while thunderous tearing sounds rang out without end.

Then.

Jiang Han opened his eyes, lightly tapped the ground with his foot, and soared into the air.

Without Dou Qi Wings, yet he still stood upon the void!

"So this is a Dou Zong. It truly feels far more wonderful than being a Dou Emperor."

Jiang Han threw back his head and laughed. He thought of that classic saying.

A Dou Zong expert was terrifying indeed!

And now, he too had reached this terrifying realm.

Jiang Han stood in the void, motionless.

Yet the immense aura radiating from him was like a sharp sword splitting the heavens, piercing through the boundless sky overhead.

Host: Jiang Han

After the energy within his body stabilized, Jiang Han had reached Three-Star Dou Zong.

Congratulations to the host for reaching this world's watershed realm

Additional reward: Void Escape Tablet

The System's voice, which had fallen silent, rang out once more.

At the same time, an image of a black stone tablet appeared on the System interface.

After learning the tablet's function.

Jiang Han was overjoyed!

The final concern he had always harbored had been dispelled.

The key lay in the word "escape" in the tablet's name!

With this tablet, even if his trump cards were exposed in the future and he could not defeat his opponent, he could choose to flee.

With the tablet, as long as Qing Shan remained, there was no rush for revenge!

After his delight faded, Jiang Han sensed energy fluctuations drawing closer from afar and immediately left.

"It should be here!"

"Were we too late?"

"Who knows which old fellow broke through, hiding it so carefully."

Not long after Jiang Han left, elders arrived one after another.

But apart from the blasted ruins at the center of the energy storm, there was not a single trace of anyone.

Jiang Han headed north.

Before long, he reached his destination.

This was a sunken stretch of terrain. At its center, an enormous black tower was buried deep underground, with only the tip of the tower and a level of its pitch-black entrance exposed above the surface.

"The Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower."

Jiang Han's gaze swept over the portion of the tower rising above ground. He could sense a defensive formation around it that distorted space.

Several areas had been neatly marked out across the broad clearing before the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower.

At this moment, large groups of disciples sat cross-legged within each area.

From time to time, these disciples glanced toward the pitch-black doors, each seeming to wait for something.

A quarter of an hour later.

Dong!

An ancient bell chime drifted mightily through the air.

As the bell rang, the previously quiet atmosphere in the broad clearing instantly became lively.

The disciples rubbed their hands together and surged impatiently toward the entrance of the Heavenly Flame Training Qi Tower.

"Enter the tower in an orderly manner!"

An aged voice came from within the tower.

The next moment, the tightly shut black doors slowly opened with a creak, and a faint scorching aura seeped out, causing the temperature of the area to rise slightly.

Jiang Han followed the tide of people toward the black doors.

The moment he passed through them, Jiang Han felt an unusual flame rise within his body.

"So this is Heartfire."

Jiang Han carefully sensed the flame tempering his body.

Perhaps this flame could accelerate the cultivation of Inner Academy disciples, but it was useless to him. With a single thought, Jiang Han directly refined that wisp of Heartfire.

"Look! Isn't that the elder who beat up the Brute Strength King yesterday?"

"It really is him!"

More and more disciples recognized Jiang Han. They surrounded him one after another, even forgetting why they had come in the first place.

Jiang Han ignored the disciples around him. After all, he could understand the fans who chased celebrities in his previous life.

"You must be the new elder here to take over my shift! You really are young!"

At that moment, an old man strode out of the crowd toward Jiang Han with a hearty laugh.
