Sunset Forest

"Controlling lightning, are you?" Bei Bei gave a scornful smile at this, slowly raising his hand. Golden thunder erupted from his entire body, surging forth like a ferocious tide.

Under his control, these thunderbolts converged into a golden lightning dragon. It was vivid and lifelike, every scale clearly defined, resembling the scorching sun in the sky. It coiled in mid-air, golden lightning bolts crackling between its claws.

Yu Tianlong violently flung the lightning sphere in his hand, sending it hurtling toward Bei Bei's position.

Bei Bei also manipulated the golden lightning dragon, spiraling as it lunged to collide with the lightning sphere.

In an instant, the blue-purple lightning sphere and the golden lightning dragon crashed together, sending countless bolts of thunder scattering in all directions.

The lightning sphere exploded mid-air with a deafening roar, scattering countless blue-purple electric snakes.

However, the golden lightning dragon condensed by Bei Bei continued to circle in the air; it didn't look like it was formed from soul power and lightning at all, but rather as if a true giant dragon had descended into the world.

The golden lightning dragon radiated an incomparable dragon might, continuing to pounce toward Yu Tianlong.

Facing the golden lightning dragon as it dove down, Yu Tianlong heard the thunder booming like war drums, emitting a terrifying sense of oppression.

The awe-inspiring dragon might left one's body and mind shaken!

When Bei Bei condensed this golden lightning dragon, he had infused it with the artistic conception of Reign Over the World!

The perfect fusion of spiritual power and physical attack created such immense might that once it crushed an opponent, it would leave a deep sense of reverence in their heart!

As he deepened his understanding of his own martial soul, Bei Bei's spiritual power also gradually radiated the domineering power of a dragon!

Just as the golden lightning dragon was inches away from Yu Tianlong, Its massive, winding body suddenly veered, bypassing Yu Tianlong and crashing into a corner of the Soul Fighting Arena.

A powerful explosion rang out, and the violent air currents formed a visible white shockwave that spread rapidly in all directions, lingering for a long time.

A corner of the Soul Fighting Arena was shattered by this thunderous strike, and dozens of deep fissures appeared on the ground, resembling a giant mouth waiting to devour its prey.

Whether they were disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect or the Earth Dragon Sect, their eyes flashed with shock as they looked at such immense destruction.

Was this really an attack that their cultivation levels could unleash? Even a strike from a Soul King or a Soul Emperor would likely be no more than this!

Yu Tianlong had walked right to the gates of death; his mind was deeply shaken, and he couldn't help but collapse to the ground, gasping for air, sweat pouring down his body like rain.

As he looked at Bei Bei, his eyes held not only a trace of reverence but also a mixture of worship and fanaticism!

"Your talent is quite good; even in Shrek Academy, it is rare." Bei Bei slowly walked forward and extended his hand toward him.

Yu Tianlong hesitated for a moment before taking Bei Bei's hand and slowly standing up.

"But compared to you, it is still like the difference between clouds and mud," Yu Tianlong sighed softly. "You didn't even have to force out your true strength!"

"Then work hard to catch up!" Bei Bei chuckled.

"Of course, I won't stop my path to becoming stronger! Next time we meet, I will challenge you again!" A flash of fighting spirit appeared in Yu Tianlong's eyes.

"I shall await it at any time!" Bei Bei nodded.

With the battle concluded, Yu Yuanlong and Nan Shuishui exchanged a few polite pleasantries before Nan Shuishui took her sect members and departed.

Bei Bei did not linger for long; after bidding farewell to Yu Yuanlong, he prepared to return to Shrek Academy.

Yu Yuanlong wanted to personally escort Bei Bei back, but Bei Bei declined. His current strength was considered mid-tier on the continent, making him a minor powerhouse in his own right.

He wanted to take this opportunity to train alone; as long as he remained cautious, there wouldn't be any major danger.

Although Yu Yuanlong was somewhat worried, seeing the determination in Bei Bei's eyes, he had no choice but to agree.

Of course, he didn't truly leave Bei Bei to his own devices, but instead hid in the shadows, following from a distance.

If he followed too closely, Bei Bei, relying on the power of the Radiant Dragon King, would be able to clearly sense Yu Yuanlong's presence.

A few days later, Bei Bei arrived at a small town on the edge of the Sunset Forest and stopped at an inn to rest.

Yu Yuanlong, hidden in the shadows, felt a bit puzzled. Wasn't Bei Bei supposed to be returning to Shrek Academy?

Why had he come to the Sunset Forest? Although this road could lead to Shrek Academy, it was undoubtedly a long detour. Had he taken a wrong turn and gotten lost?

Although Yu Yuanlong was confused, seeing that Bei Bei was in no danger, he had no intention of revealing himself.

However, he felt a powerful aura nearby, which vanished as quickly as it had appeared.

Yu Yuanlong expanded his spiritual power to search the surroundings, but he could sense nothing.

Could he have sensed it wrong?

He was somewhat doubtful; his cultivation level was considered that of an expert on the continent, so such a situation shouldn't happen.

Since a powerhouse had appeared nearby and he was unable to sense them, the other party's strength clearly reached the level of a Super Douluo, or perhaps even a Limit Douluo!

But why would such a powerhouse appear here?

On the other side, after Bei Bei settled into a room, he went to get something to eat.

He walked down from the second floor, sat at a table by the window, and called the waiter to order some food.

His gaze began to scan the surroundings.

Such small towns were usually built in reliance on the Sunset Forest.

They survived by gathering medicinal herbs and hunting soul beast materials, while also providing lodging for soul masters who came to obtain soul rings.

He took a glance; most of the soul masters there seemed to be at the level of ten or twenty-something.

Only one person made Bei Bei linger for a moment; that man had a robust build, broad shoulders, and a head of brownish-red hair.

His muscles bulged all over, and his powerful aura was even more overbearing than that of Yu Tianlong.

In this environment, he appeared extremely out of place.

Of course, the same could be said for Bei Bei.

The other party clearly noticed Bei Bei as well; their gazes collided in mid-air before both retracted them.

The meal Bei Bei ordered was quickly brought over by a waiter, filling an entire large table.

The man was the same, with no less food in front of him than Bei Bei.

Ignoring the curious gazes of others, the two began to feast heartily.

The man's eating style was extremely rugged, and soon, more than half of the dishes on his table were gone.

Bei Bei appeared much more elegant, yet his speed of eating was not the least bit slower.

Before long, the two large tables of food were finished, yet they were clearly still hungry.

Amidst the shocked gazes of the other diners, the two called the waiter over again and ordered another massive pile of food.

Bei Bei looked toward the other man; this was the first time someone had been able to match his appetite.

The man was also drawn to Bei Bei. He slowly stood up, walked over to Bei Bei, sat down, and said, "What should I call you, little brother?"

After all, to eat this much, if one wasn't a glutton, then their body's absorption of energy must be terrifying, and their physical strength would undoubtedly be formidable.

"You can call me Bei Bei!" Bei Bei replied with a smile.
