Not only the Heavenly Dragon Gate people will roll, but the Earth Dragon Gate people will also roll

Just as You Jie had surmised, Yu Tianlong did indeed feel curiosity toward him... as well as jealousy.

He had heard long ago that their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon lineage maintained certain connections with Shrek Academy, and today, he was seeing it with his own eyes.

Yet, You Jie was clearly three years his junior, and the gap in their cultivation was not nearly as wide as one might expect; in fact, it was less than a year's worth of progress.

Furthermore, that incredibly beautiful and gentle big sister, Zhang Lexuan, seemed to have a relationship with You Jie that was anything but ordinary.

Although Yu Tianlong was a hard-nosed individual who poured the vast majority of his energy into cultivation, that did not mean he was ignorant of the ways of the world.

He was truly curious now: how could You Jie be such a genius despite his martial soul not being a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and how did he manage to earn the favor of such a great beauty?

As for himself... while there were peers within the Heavenly Dragon Gate who respected him and even expressed admiration, their cultivation, appearance, and personalities were all lacking by comparison.

As for Nan Qiuqiu, the daughter of the Earth Dragon Gate sect master who was practically his childhood sweetheart, although her martial soul was quite unique, her cultivation was lower than his, and her personality was something Yu Tianlong simply could not accept.

"You Jie, why don't we spar? Let me see just how powerful your mutated martial soul really is."

Thinking this, Yu Tianlong walked straight toward You Jie and took the initiative to challenge him.

"Sure."

You Jie had no desire to sit there obediently, listening to a group of old fogies talk.

Although Mu En was quite lively and witty during the conversation, the two old men from the Heavenly Dragon Gate could never relax in his presence due to the disparity in seniority and cultivation, which made the atmosphere of their discussion consistently awkward.

Compared to remaining there, having a fight was undoubtedly much more pleasant.

Of course, it would be even better if it could be a real, honest-to-goodness Riding Duel, or if the conditions were lowered, a Standing Duel would suffice.

As for Zhang Lexuan, she knew exactly how formidable You Jie's strength was, whereas Yu Tianlong was at most only slightly stronger than Bei Bei, and even that was limited.

The only difference between him and Bei Bei was how many times he would roll on the floor after being struck by the Scrap Iron Fist.

As for those old fogies still chatting, the moment they saw Yu Tianlong and You Jie had agreed to a duel, they all stood up, ready to enjoy the spectacle.

Since Mu En was here as a guest to soak up some sun and enjoy his healthy body, he did not bring the matter up himself.

And while the sect master and Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Gate had the inclination, they dared not suggest such a thing that might look like bullying the young.

Now that the two juniors had arranged the battle themselves, they naturally had no need to worry about such trivial concerns and could properly observe just how peculiar this great-grandson of Mu En truly was.

You Jie and Yu Tianlong arrived in the front courtyard of the Heavenly Dragon Gate, standing at a distance of several dozen meters apart.

The two had no need for anything as troublesome as a referee, and they released their respective martial souls in unison.

"Hmm, worthy of a pure-blooded Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul; in terms of dominance and the explosive nature of the lightning, it is indeed something Bei Bei could never hope to match."

Watching Yu Tianlong, whose arms had fully transformed into dragon limbs and whose body was constantly crackling with electric sparks, You Jie nodded slightly and glanced at the four soul rings attached to his left arm.

When Yu Tianlong saw You Jie's four soul rings, he couldn't help but cry out in astonishment.

A configuration of three purple and one black was still a bit too overpowered for the current era.

"Is this the caliber of a Shrek Academy genius?

"Tell me, where is your dragon?"

"I shouldn't need the dragon to make an appearance today; this will be enough to fight you.

"Gathering stars shall awaken a new power, becoming a shining path of light!

"Appear, Junk Warrior!"

You Jie's movements were already quite practiced; before the others could even clearly see the figures of Junk Synchron and Quillbolt Hedgehog, they had both turned into light, ultimately forming Junk Warrior.

Feeling the pressure radiating from Junk Warrior, Yu Tianlong stopped wondering what You Jie's martial soul actually was and hurriedly unleashed his strongest fourth soul skill.

The next moment, a massive blue-purple dragon head, a meter and a half tall and seemingly stripped entirely from his own body, barreled toward the Junk Warrior in the air.

"This Thunder Dragon Head is truly lifelike, even a bit more impressive than Bei Bei's.

"So strong! Truly too strong!

"Junk Warrior, use Scrap Iron Fist!"

As You Jie's second soul ring lit up, a fist three to four meters in diameter—essentially a super-sized version of Junk Warrior's own fist—was launched from Junk Warrior's arm, colliding with Yu Tianlong's Thunder Dragon Head.

After a brief collision, the Thunder Dragon Head was gradually crushed by the Scrap Iron Fist, and Yu Tianlong himself had to face that terrifying blow head-on.

Although he continuously activated his soul skills, reinforcing himself and using his full-powered Thunderbolt to resist the Scrap Iron Fist, he didn't last much longer than his Thunder Dragon Head had. Soon, amidst a series of screams, he was sent flying by a single punch, landing on the ground and rolling several times until he finally came to a stop against the courtyard wall.

"Ah?! What is this..."

Just then, a girl's startled cry suddenly came from the entrance, and everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it as they looked over.

They saw a mature and beautiful woman standing at the gate with a young girl whose age fell somewhere between Yu Tianlong and You Jie; the surprised voice had clearly come from the girl.

Upon seeing the girl, Yu Tianlong immediately lowered his head, not wanting to be seen by her.

If she, Nan Qiuqiu, saw him in this pathetic state of being blasted away by a single punch, his social life in Dragon City would essentially be over.

Yet, the more Yu Tianlong wanted something not to happen, the more likely it was to occur.

"Yu Tianlong? Why are you in such a sorry state?"

"Qiuqiu, show some respect!"

Nan Shuishui immediately called out to Nan Qiuqiu, then respectfully bowed to the sect master and Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Gate before turning her gaze toward Mu En.

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

"This is His Excellency the Dragon God of the Shrek Sea God Pavilion." The Heavenly Dragon Gate Master Yu Luoguan hurriedly introduced him, while simultaneously informing Mu En of Nan Shuishui's identity.

Nan Shuishui hastily bowed to Mu En, her heart filled with such profound shock that she didn't even notice Nan Qiūqiū sneaking away from her side.

She had only come today to discuss the profit dividends for the past few days with Yu Luoguan, as well as the security arrangements for the coming period; she had never expected to encounter the legendary top powerhouse of Shrek Academy.

On the other side, Nan Qiūqiū had also arrived in front of the just-risen Yu Tianlong, mocking him without restraint.

"Hahaha, I never expected you to be so pathetic, getting knocked down by someone even younger than me. What a total small fry~"

"Hmph, you'd be the same if you went up there! Don't believe me? Why don't you try?"

"Try it then! Hey, you Shrek brat, your opponent is this young lady!"

Nan Qiūqiū issued a challenge!

Nan Qiūqiū attacked!

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