Is the Golden Dragon King a Female Dragon?

"Director Long, I believe this battle should be conducted in a closed environment."

Wu Zhangkong crossed his arms over his chest, interrupting the match.

A match was fine, but there were some things better left unexposed.

"Hmm... I will request authorization from the school board."

Long Hengxu seriously considered Wu Zhangkong's suggestion.

It seemed... it truly could not be held in public.

The lineups on both sides were too exaggerated; Class One had three Soul Grand Masters defending the stage, including the Youth Genius Ranking's Ji Fengyu.

Class Five had crushed their way through previous matches; Gu Yue hadn't even made a move, and Tang Wulin and Xie Xie hadn't even used their soul rings.

This battle had completely transcended the scope of freshmen.

Long Hengxu walked away quickly, intending to return just as fast.

"Students, the Class Promotion Tournament ends here for now. Everyone, return to your respective classrooms in an orderly fashion and await the results."

Having received approval from the school board, Long Hengxu began to disperse the students and relocate the venue.

The students were somewhat disappointed to miss out on the highly anticipated battle.

"Ahem, now I can finally let loose."

Xie Xie excitedly flexed his wrists.

Heaven knows how stifled he had felt while disguising his Holy Light Dragon Martial Soul.

After his Martial Soul evolved into the Holy Light Dragon, his original two metal soul spirits had mutated into the Light Dragon Dagger and a second Light Dragon Dagger.

Therefore, the two glowing daggers he had used in the previous matches were not his Martial Soul, but his soul spirits.

"Don't you dare hold back later."

"Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, Xie Xie, this is the time to test your true strength."

Ji Fengyu specifically instructed them.

Otherwise, he suspected that Tang Wulin and Gu Yue might defect mid-battle to join his team, and the five of them would gang up on Xie Xie...

"Don't worry, Brother Ji, I will give it my all!"

Tang Wulin knew how terrifying Ji Fengyu's amplification abilities were; hold back?

He should be thinking about how to fight Wang Jinxi instead!

"I will prove to you that I am no ordinary woman."

Gu Yue emphasized the word "ordinary" heavily. Ever since that time in the Spirit Ascension Platform, the word "ordinary" had become her nightmare.

As the dignified Soul Beast Sovereign, did she not have any self-esteem?

Being looked down upon by her wife for having "ordinary" abilities had stirred a bit of competitive spirit in Gu Yue.

Previously, she had been reluctant to hit her wife because her wife was a support type.

But after witnessing the hidden, super-macho side of Ji Fengyu, Gu Yue felt relieved to change her strategy.

The Dragon Clan had no tradition of forbidding one from hitting their wife!

A man this wild and fierce couldn't be won over by fawning; she had to show some real skill.

She was going to conquer her wife!

The Class Promotion Tournament was the perfect opportunity to prove herself.

As a husband, one must demonstrate strength and charm to their wife!

It wasn't just about self-esteem;

it was about showcasing the exclusive charm of a Dragon Clan husband!

"Jinxi, why do I feel like the atmosphere is a bit off..."

Zhang Yangzi quietly tugged at the corner of Wang Jinxi's shirt.

In truth, he felt that Wang Jinxi had also become somewhat of a stranger, but at this moment, Wang Jinxi was the only one who could give him a sense of security.

"Yangzi, I suggest you withdraw from the match."

Wang Jinxi was silent for a moment; he didn't want his childhood friend to get involved.

Zhang Yangzi was only there to make up the numbers in this battle.

Tang Wulin and Gu Yue were both ultimate Dragon Clan bloodlines capable of performing a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Ji Fengyu.

Even he and Xie Xie, who had already evolved, were merely supporting roles.

Letting Zhang Yangzi get involved was too dangerous!

"Yangzi, Jinxi is doing this for your own good. This is a battle of our Dragon Martial Souls... I will speak to the director."

Ji Fengyu also spoke up at the right moment.

Dark Phantom Eagle?

Such a little chick would have absolutely no impact on the outcome of the battle; on the contrary, it would only hinder their performance.

"Fine."

Zhang Yangzi nodded. That feeling of being out of place had made him restless and uneasy.

Hearing Ji Fengyu's words, he let out a breath, feeling a sense of relief.

"Jinxi, I wish you happiness."

Zhang Yangzi sighed, able only to offer Wang Jinxi his blessings. He could no longer accompany Jinxi on the road ahead.

"Yangzi, take care."

Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi embraced deeply, after which Ji Fengyu explained the situation to Long Hengxu and Wu Zhangkong.

In the end, Zhang Yangzi withdrew.

Two against three?

Wu Zhangkong knew the inside story; he merely raised an eyebrow, choosing not to interfere with their judgment.

These few were all of the Dragon Clan; having Zhang Yangzi leave was indeed for his own good.

"Director, please return."

Wu Zhangkong blocked Long Hengxu's path with a cold, aloof expression, clearly showing him the door.

Wang and Xie needed to hide their martial souls, and since even Zhang Yangzi had withdrawn, he might as well clear the room entirely.

"Me?"

Long Hengxu pointed at himself, dumbfounded.

The Class Promotion Tournament, and he, the dean, was being asked to leave?

Uh...

"Fine, fine, fine."

Long Hengxu glanced at Wu Zhangkong twice before quickly compromising.

Damn it, just because you're strong, you think you're amazing?

You won't even let me watch?

Fine, I won't watch then!

"Alright, you may begin."

"With Zhang Yangzi withdrawn, it will be Ji Fengyu and Wang Jinxi versus Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, and Xie Xie."

Wu Zhangkong cast his gaze toward the group.

Now, apart from him, only the five of them remained in the vast Martial Arts Hall.

Although Wang Jinxi felt a bit distressed, he had to admit that his best friend Zhang Yangzi was an outsider...

"Two against three?"

"Then, Teacher Wu, for the sake of fairness, I shall refrain from joining for now."

"If you two can't hold them off, then I'll step in."

Gu Yue displayed great sportsmanship by yielding the opportunity to Tang Wulin and Xie Xie.

She knew exactly how fierce her "wife" was!

A Golden Dragon King at just over level ten—tsk, tsk, tsk, what could they possibly use to fight that?

She would happily watch the Golden Dragon King get "domesticated"!

Once Tang Wulin and Xie Xie were beaten to a pulp, she would step out to show off her own might, letting her "wife" see just how useless the Golden Dragon King was and how valiant she herself could be!

Ahem, she was quite the schemer.

"Hmph! That guy is really putting on an act."

Xie Xie grumbled unhappily to Tang Wulin in a low voice. Damn it, Gu Yue had taken all the spotlight; what were they supposed to say?

"Too pretentious!"

Tang Wulin nodded in deep agreement.

What a show-off!

Playing the grand finale card? Treating them like stepping stones?

Gu Yue, don't you dare leave after this match; there's still a free-for-all spar!

"Very well."

Wu Zhangkong glanced at Ji Fengyu, and seeing that he had no objections, nodded to approve Gu Yue's proposal.

"The match, begin."

Following Wu Zhangkong's whistle.

Yellow, yellow! Yellow, yellow!

Yellow, yellow! White!

Both sides activated Martial Soul Possession, and their spirit rings rose.

"Crimson Strength!"

"Orange Attack!"

Ji Fengyu, wearing a crown, flapped his Rainbow Wings to take flight, looking down from above to buff Wang Jinxi, who was on the front line.

At this stage, neither Tang Wulin nor Xie Xie possessed powerful anti-air capabilities, so his presence in the sky could greatly restrict the opposition.

"ROAR!!!"

With a roar, Wang Jinxi activated his Dark Holy Dragon Martial Soul, and a dense aura of darkness surged from within his body.

It was as if a layer of black mist had been added to him, and the crimson and orange lights falling upon him created a dazzling, eerie effect.

Strength and attack increased by 56%!

All attributes increased by 20%!

And Dragon Might was added!

These two layers of Dragon Might were no simple matter; Wang Jinxi discovered that he was no longer afraid of Tang Wulin!

With the support of Ji Fengyu's Dragon Might, Tang Wulin's bloodline suppression was useless against him!

"Damn, I'm so jealous that he has Brother Ji to support him."

Both were two-ringed, and both possessed Holy Dragon Martial Souls, but without Ji Fengyu's support, Xie Xie's momentum was far inferior to Wang Jinxi's, and he was even suppressed by Wang Jinxi's dark attribute.

With such a large gap in levels and the Dragon Might suppression rendered ineffective, Tang Wulin also felt a massive headache coming on.

Not only was his Dragon Might suppression useless, but he was actually being suppressed himself...

Facing Ji Fengyu, Tang Wulin's bloodline actually felt a very distinct sense of fear.

The Golden Dragon King was henpecked and afraid of his wife!

"Charge!"

With the Golden Dragon Claw in hand, Tang Wulin stomped his right foot on the ground, shot forward like a cannonball, and reached out to grab Wang Jinxi.

"First Spirit Skill, Dark Dragon Claw!"

Wang Jinxi was completely unafraid; he unleashed a claw of his own, steadily catching Tang Wulin and even faintly suppressing him.

The Rainbow Dragon King's buffs were simply too powerful!

"Light Dragon Claw!"

Xie Xie launched a surprise attack from another direction, the two of them pincer-attacking.

BOOM!

Wang Jinxi extended his other Dark Dragon Claw, taking on one with each hand, and they reached a temporary stalemate.

In a normal state, the strength of one of Tang Wulin's claws was roughly over two thousand kilograms, while Wang Jinxi's strength after his Martial Soul evolved into the Dark Holy Dragon was around eight hundred kilograms.

Logically speaking, he should not have been a match for Tang Wulin at all.

But after Ji Fengyu's three types of buffs, and the ebb and flow of the Rainbow Dragon Might, Wang Jinxi was already able to hold his own in a head-on stalemate.

"Wulin, what's wrong with you?"

Xie Xie noticed that Tang Wulin was exceptionally weak today.

"To think there would come a day when I would be the one suppressed?"

Tang Wulin had no words for his misery.

He who lived by the sword had finally been cut by it.

Looking at that noble and elegant Rainbow Dragon in the sky, he truly felt an uncontrollable sense of fear!

"Something is wrong..."

In Tang Wulin's sea of consciousness, Tang San's divine sense furrowed his brows.

He discovered that when Tang Wulin and Wang Jinxi's battle triggered the Golden Dragon King bloodline, the aura seemed to have become faintly softer...

Something was wrong, there was a problem!

Tang San's divine sense rushed to investigate, and he discovered the source of the problem!

It turned out that upon sensing that Ji Fengyu was male, the Golden Dragon King essence had automatically adjusted its gender!

Now, the Golden Dragon King was a female dragon!

Once Tang Wulin used the power of the Golden Dragon King, he would potentially begin to transform in the direction of a female dragon.

But if he did not use the power of the Golden Dragon King, a Blue Silver Grass with Innate Soul Power of rank 3 was purely trash!

This was a double-edged sword!

Tang San's divine sense felt as if the sky were collapsing! (The Golden Dragon King essence will be given to Na'er later; Tang Wulin's gender will remain unchanged, no gay romance.)
