Not Just the People from the Heavenly Dragon Gate Had to Roll on the Ground-the Earth Dragon Gate's People Did Too

Just as You Jie had expected, Yu Tianlong had indeed grown curious about him... and jealous of him.

He had heard long ago that their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon lineage had some ties to Shrek Academy. Today, he had seen it with his own eyes.

Yet You Jie was three years younger than him, and the gap between their cultivation levels wasn't all that large. If anything, it was less than a year.

And that beautiful, gentle-looking older sister, Zhang Lexuan, also seemed to have a very unusual relationship with You Jie.

Although Yu Tianlong was a ruthless person who devoted nearly all his energy to cultivation, that didn't mean he was clueless about the world.

He was genuinely curious. How could You Jie, whose Martial Soul wasn't even the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, be such a genius—and even win the favor of a great beauty?

As for himself... although a few girls his age in the Heavenly Dragon Gate respected him and had even shown that they admired him, they fell short in cultivation, looks, and personality.

As for Nan Qiūqiū, the Earth Dragon Gate master's daughter, who had practically grown up with him, her Martial Soul was quite special, but her cultivation was a little lower than his, and her personality was also somewhat difficult for Yu Tianlong to accept.

"You Jie, how about we spar? Let me see just how powerful your Mutated Martial Soul is."

With that thought, Yu Tianlong immediately walked over to You Jie and challenged him.

"Sure."

You Jie didn't want to sit around obediently listening to a bunch of old geezers talk.

Although Mu En had already made the conversation quite lively, the two old men from the Heavenly Dragon Gate couldn't relax around him because of the disparity in their seniority and cultivation. That made the atmosphere of their conversation rather strange.

Compared with staying here, having a fight was undoubtedly more enjoyable.

Of course, a proper Turbo Duel would've been great, but even a Standing Duel would do if they lowered the bar a little.

As for Zhang Lexuan, she knew exactly how powerful You Jie was. Yu Tianlong was at most a little stronger than Bei Bei, and not by much.

The only difference between him and Bei Bei was how many times he could roll across the floor after getting hit by Scrap Iron Fist.

The few old geezers still chatting saw that Yu Tianlong and You Jie had already agreed to fight. They all got to their feet, ready to enjoy the show.

Mu En had come as a guest this time, partly to show off how healthy he was, so he hadn't brought up the matter himself.

The Heavenly Dragon Gate's master and Supreme Elder had been interested, but hadn't dared to suggest something that might seem like an older person picking on a younger one.

Now that the two juniors had arranged the fight themselves, they didn't need to worry about any of that. They could simply see for themselves just how extraordinary Mu En's great-grandson was.

You Jie and Yu Tianlong went to the Heavenly Dragon Gate's front courtyard and took their places, several dozen meters apart.

They didn't need the bother of a referee. In perfect unison, they released their Martial Souls.

"As expected of a pure-blooded Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul. In terms of its imposing aura and the explosive power of its lightning, Bei Bei can't hold a candle to it."

Watching Yu Tianlong's arms complete their Dragon Transformation as sparks of electricity crackled all over him, You Jie nodded slightly, then glanced at the four Soul Rings attached to his own left arm.

When Yu Tianlong saw You Jie's four Soul Rings, he couldn't help exclaiming in surprise.

That Soul Ring Configuration—three purple and one black—was still a little too overpowered for the current era.

"So this is the kind of genius Shrek Academy has?

"By the way, where's your dragon?"

"I probably won't need to bring my dragon out today. This is enough to fight you."

"Gathered stars, awaken the power of new life, and become a road shining with light!

"Appear, Junk Warrior!"

You Jie's movements had grown much more practiced. Before anyone else could make out Junk Synchron and Quillbolt Hedgehog, they had already turned into light and combined to form Junk Warrior.

Feeling the pressure coming from Junk Warrior, Yu Tianlong stopped wondering what You Jie's Martial Soul actually was and hurriedly unleashed his strongest, fourth Soul Skill.

In the next instant, a huge blue-purple dragon head, a meter and a half tall and almost completely detached from his body, shot toward Junk Warrior in midair.

"That Thunder Dragon Head is so lifelike—several notches better than Bei Bei's.

"So strong! Truly incredible!

"Junk Warrior, use Scrap Iron Fist!"

As You Jie's Second Soul Ring lit up, a fist three or four meters across—an enormous, super-sized version of Junk Warrior's own fist—shot from Junk Warrior's hand and collided with Yu Tianlong's Thunder Dragon Head.

After a brief clash, the Thunder Dragon Head was gradually crushed by Scrap Iron Fist, leaving Yu Tianlong to face the terrifying attack himself.

He chained Soul Skills together to strengthen himself, then gave it everything he had with Thunderbolt to contend with Scrap Iron Fist. But he didn't last much longer than his Thunder Dragon Head. Soon, amid a scream, he was sent flying by a single punch. He hit the ground and rolled several times before finally stopping against the courtyard wall.

"Ah?! What's..."

Just then, a girl's startled cry came from the entrance. Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it, and they all turned to look.

A mature, stunningly beautiful woman stood at the entrance with a little girl whose age fell between Yu Tianlong's and You Jie's. The surprised cry had obviously come from the girl.

The moment Yu Tianlong saw her, he lowered his head, not wanting her to see him.

If Nan Qiūqiū saw him looking so pathetic after being knocked flat with one punch, he'd basically be socially dead in Dragon City.

Unfortunately, the more Yu Tianlong didn't want something to happen, the more likely it was to happen.

"Yu Tianlong? How'd you end up in such a sorry state?"

"Qiūqiū, don't be rude!"

Nan Shuishui stopped Nan Qiūqiū, then respectfully bowed to the Heavenly Dragon Gate's master and Supreme Elder before turning to Mu En.

"May I ask who this senior is...?"

"This is the Dragon God Majesty of Shrek Academy's Sea God Pavilion," the Heavenly Dragon Gate master, Yu Luoguan, hastily introduced. He also informed Mu En of Nan Shuishui's identity.

Nan Shuishui hurriedly bowed to Mu En, deeply shaken. She was so shocked that she didn't even notice Nan Qiūqiū sneaking away from her side.

She'd only come today to discuss the business profits for the past few days and the security arrangements for the coming period with Yu Luoguan. She'd never imagined she might meet the legendary supreme powerhouse of Shrek Academy.

Meanwhile, Nan Qiūqiū went over to Yu Tianlong, who had just gotten back to his feet, and openly mocked him.

"Hahaha, I can't believe you're such a loser! You got knocked flat by someone even younger than me. What a little shrimp~"

"Hmph, you'd be no different! Don't believe me? Try it!"

"Try it? Fine! Hey, you Shrek kid! I'm your opponent now!"

Nan Qiūqiū launched her challenge!

Nan Qiūqiū charged in!

Nan Qiūqiū rolled wildly across the ground! Her screams were much louder than Yu Tianlong's.
