Soul Douluo!

Qin Chuan and the Scarlet King were making their way toward Heaven Dou City.

They hadn't expected to run into people from Shrek Academy.

They already had a grudge between them. However, Qin Chuan was wary of Tang Hao, who was hiding in the shadows like a dog, afraid to show his face, so he planned to leave first.

But the people from Shrek Academy didn't see it that way. After all, they had a Soul Douluo on their side now, a powerhouse second only to a Titled Douluo!

As long as Qin Chuan dared to make a move, Flender would kill him on the spot!

And so, Tang San and the others relentlessly taunted and slandered Qin Chuan, hoping to provoke him and use Flender to kill him.

In the end, Qin Chuan did exactly as they wanted. His eyes turned icy, and he decided he wouldn't put up with it anymore.

"Senior, there may be a Titled Douluo hiding nearby. I'll have to trouble you in a moment!"

Qin Chuan sent a message to the Scarlet King in secret, telling him not to fight and to feign weakness first, so they could draw Tang Hao out of hiding.

"Can you handle a Soul Douluo and a Soul Saint?" the Scarlet King asked with a frown.

"Don't underestimate me." Qin Chuan smiled, then turned his cold gaze on the people from Shrek.

They had bullied him to this extent. If he could still put up with it, he wouldn't be himself.

He hadn't forgotten that although he was only a minor cultivator in the Body Casting Realm, he had Green Green Grassland backing him, and plenty of useful items at his disposal.

Without another word, Qin Chuan moved in a flash, his body like lightning as he pushed the speed of the Body Casting Realm's Seventh Transformation to its limit.

"Hold on..." Faced with the unfathomable Scarlet King, Flender had still wanted to say more. But when he saw Qin Chuan's speed, his heart lurched.

So fast!

It wasn't just Flender. Everyone's hearts jolted, astonished by Qin Chuan's terrifying speed, unable to believe their eyes.

The other Shrek members who had already experienced how difficult Qin Chuan was to deal with stared in disbelief, their pupils contracting sharply!

He was even faster than last time!

"Tang San, you—" Liu An stood at the very front, and Qin Chuan's first attack was aimed at him.

Qin Chuan's terrifying speed was like a bolt of lightning, pushed to its absolute limit. Before Liu An could react, Qin Chuan was already right in front of him.

A heavy punch slammed into him. It was like being hit by a car, and he went flying backward.

That terrifying speed and strength were completely different from what Tang San had told him. Liu An couldn't help cursing, wishing he could slap Tang San to death.

"This..." Tang San and the other Shrek students were stunned, their jaws hanging open as they stared at the shocking scene before them.

Liu An might have only recently joined their academy, but he was a monster who could stand against all five of Shrek's main fighters by himself!

And yet he couldn't even withstand one blow from Qin Chuan!

"He's gotten stronger again!" Tang San's pupils shrank, his scalp prickling, but the murderous intent in his heart only grew stronger.

"Before you get carried away with your own pride, you should take a good measure of your strength." Qin Chuan snorted. Standing there, he was like a celestial god, overwhelming everyone with his presence.

"You're asking for death!" Liu An struggled to his feet, bracing himself against the ground.

Seeing everyone look at him with pity—including Zhu Zhuqing, whom he had secretly been pursuing—he flew into a rage.

He'd lost all face!

Golden light burst into brilliance!

Brilliant Soul Rings wound around him!

"Third Soul Skill—Ruyi Golden Cudgel!"

A layer of golden light rose from Liu An's body and gathered in his hand. Divine radiance flowed through it as it gradually transformed into a staff.

"Boy, die!" Liu An roared, bringing the staff down at Qin Chuan's head. The force was so great that even the air shrieked as it was split apart.

"Hm? Ruyi Golden Cudgel?" Qin Chuan's mind went blank for a moment when he heard the name of the Soul Skill. But after sensing the force behind it, he dismissed it with a sneer.

"I showed mercy just now and only sent you flying. I never thought you'd be so stupid as to keep refusing to face reality!"

Bloodline Power surged over Qin Chuan's raised right hand. Then a terrifying scene unfolded: using nothing but the strength of his body, he met the Soul Skill head-on and sent Liu An flying once more.

This time, Qin Chuan had used a little more force, making Liu An spit blood and collapse to the ground. He'd probably be bedridden for a few days.

"Impossible!" Liu An had taken a crushing blow. He glared at Qin Chuan with venomous eyes, unable to believe that his strongest attack had been so easily countered.

"There's nothing impossible about it," Qin Chuan said coolly. "Putting the name Ruyi Golden Cudgel on someone like you is an insult to it."

On Earth Star, Sun Wukong and the Golden Cudgel were household names. Even now, with the resurgence of spiritual energy, countless people still revered them.

To see such a powerful weapon in the hands of someone who couldn't even take a little setback was indeed an insult to it.

"You... You know about the Golden Cudgel? You know Sun Wukong?" Liu An suddenly jolted, staring at Qin Chuan as though he wanted to devour him alive.

"You..."

"To think you'd bully a student from our academy like this. You really don't take Shrek seriously at all!"

Just as Qin Chuan was about to speak, someone cut him off. Flender walked slowly toward him, his face dark, while secretly sending a message:

"Zhao Wuji, if that fellow makes a move, hold him off for now. Just for a little while."

Zhao Wuji glanced at the Scarlet King and nodded. He was only a Soul Douluo, after all. The gap between them wasn't that great.

"When your students were insulting me however they pleased, they didn't take me seriously either," Qin Chuan replied evenly, his expression calm.

His muscles tensed as power gathered inside him like a storm. He was ready to fight at any moment.

After one fierce battle after another, each one bringing him to the brink of death, Qin Chuan had grown rapidly. Like a dried-up sponge, he absorbed a vast amount of experience.

So even though his opponent was a renowned Soul Douluo, a figure of great standing in this world, Qin Chuan still wasn't afraid. He dared to fight.

"Boy, too much confidence isn't a good thing. Do you think that just because a Soul Douluo is protecting you, I can't do anything to you?" Flender said coldly.

One bright Soul Ring after another rose around him, their light blazing as they encircled his body. A terrifying aura surged toward Qin Chuan, battering him.

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, Flender attacked. The roar of a great bird rang out, shaking the four directions as it swept toward Qin Chuan.

"Hahaha, that guy's dead for sure. Dean Flender is an eighty-third-level agility-type Soul Douluo!" Ma Hongjun got to his feet. With an elder stepping in, he wasn't afraid anymore and started shouting again.

"Shut up. He's only fifteen or sixteen, just a few years older than us, and he can already fight someone like the dean, a Soul Douluo. What right do you have to insult him?"

Zhu Zhuqing frowned. Her fiery figure was concealed beneath a black outfit, beautiful and cold. When she spoke, her voice carried a chill.

Ma Hongjun's face turned pale, then flushed. "Zhu Zhuqing, you're a student of Shrek Academy. Why are you, just like Rongrong, always taking the outsiders' side?"

"Fatso, Zhu Zhuqing's right. Shut up!" Dai Mubai spoke up as well.

But he didn't turn around. He kept his eyes on the battle between Qin Chuan and Flender, surprise flickering through his heterochromatic eyes from time to time.

After undergoing the Seventh Transformation, Qin Chuan's physical abilities had all increased tremendously. He had undergone a complete transformation.

Now, even while fighting a Soul Douluo like Flender, he showed no major weaknesses and was only just beginning to fall behind.
