Tang San: Blue Silver Academy Has Courted Death!

"Just as I touched the seemingly ordinary barrier surrounding the academy, I sensed an utterly terrifying, fatal threat."

Ghost Douluo swallowed hard, still shaken as he recalled that moment.

"It was an absolute power completely beyond that of a Title Douluo."

"My instincts told me that if I took even half a step farther, then even if I used my Martial Soul Avatar with everything I had, I would die on the spot. Even my soul would be utterly crushed."

Listening to this trembling report, Bibi Dong showed no anger on her face.

Her slender fingers lightly tapped the armrest of her throne, producing crisp sounds.

"Even you, an agility-attack Title Douluo renowned for speed and stealth, could not get in?"

Bibi Dong's tone was calm, as lofty and detached as ever.

Yet deep within her heart, towering waves had already risen.

She had personally experienced Xu Qing's incomprehensible methods.

Those dual-colored mutated Blue Silver Grass and the terrifying power of nine rings were still vivid in her mind.

Now, even the academy's outer defenses were this frightening.

Just how terrifying was the foundation of this mysterious academy that had appeared out of nowhere?

How many unknown dangers did it still conceal?

Seeing that Bibi Dong did not blame him, Ghost Douluo hurriedly continued his report, hoping to make up for his failure.

"Not only that."

"While secretly keeping watch, I also saw a group."

"That Yu Xiaogang led people from Shrek Academy to Blue Silver Academy to demand a spot in the Advanced Spirit Master Tournament."

"But before long, they were directly thrown out."

"They looked utterly miserable when they came out. It was obvious they had suffered badly and been ruthlessly humiliated."

Upon hearing the familiar name "Yu Xiaogang,"

Bibi Dong's fingers paused slightly on the armrest.

A long-buried memory from many years ago flashed rapidly through her mind.

That man who had once sworn to change the world of spirit masters through theory had now fallen so low that he had to beg others for help.

However,

this emotional fluctuation existed for only an instant before vanishing completely.

Her attention quickly returned to Blue Silver Academy.

Bibi Dong rose to her feet, her luxurious papal gown trailing across the floor as she radiated peerless elegance.

"Continue sending more people. Keep Blue Silver Academy under close watch from the outside."

"Do not act rashly. The moment anything happens, report to me immediately."

After receiving her orders, Ghost Douluo felt as though he had been granted a pardon. He turned into a mass of black shadow and swiftly vanished from Pope Palace.

Meanwhile, in the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Inside the study of the Crown Prince Mansion, precious sandalwood incense curled upward from a purple-bronze burner.

Qian Renxue, disguised as Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, leaned against the broad back of her chair.

She held a secret letter encrypted with special Soul Power, her exquisite features hidden beneath an extraordinarily lifelike mask.

This letter contained top-secret intelligence that her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, had personally sent through a covert channel.

After reading its contents, Qian Renxue's eyes filled with astonishment.

Bibi Dong, the arrogant pope who held immense power, had actually suffered a major setback at this place called Blue Silver Academy.

The intelligence stated it clearly: Bibi Dong had deployed the two Spider Emperor martial souls, yet in the end could only flee with grave injuries.

"Blue Silver Academy..."

Qian Renxue softly murmured those four words.

She was far too familiar with that name.

Throughout this period, Xue Ye, her father in name, had repeatedly mentioned the Blue Silver Dean, whether intentionally or not.

According to the Heaven Dou Imperial Family's top-secret internal records,

the Heaven Dou Imperial Family had once faced a devastating crisis and nearly been wiped out.

It was that mysterious Blue Silver Dean who had acted casually and preserved the imperial bloodline.

Whenever Xue Ye mentioned this matter, an intensely fervent look of reverence would always appear in his eyes.

That awe and gratitude from the depths of his bones far surpassed even his wariness toward Spirit Hall.

That made the matter particularly intriguing.

Even the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, one of the two great empires, held it in such high regard that it was even willing to bow its head in submission.

Qian Renxue held the secret letter over a brazier and watched it turn into a pile of ash amid the flames.

She had also just received a message from her subordinates.

It likewise mentioned Shrek Academy's failure at Blue Silver Academy.

Even someone as proud as Yu Xiaogang, who strutted around everywhere relying on a bit of theory, had been thrown out without mercy.

"How interesting."

An intense look of interest appeared on Qian Renxue's face.

After lurking in the Heaven Dou Empire for so many years, this was the first time she had encountered something so interesting.

Someone who could make Bibi Dong suffer, while also being revered like a god by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family,

was certainly no ordinary person.

Qian Renxue rose and looked toward the trusted subordinate who had been standing guard outside the door.

"Go convey my order."

"Immediately arrange for Princess Xue Ke to go to Blue Silver Academy and complete her enrollment procedures."

"Make sure she studies properly at the academy, and secretly investigate every piece of information concerning that Dean while she is there. No matter how trivial, report everything to me."

The subordinate bowed to accept the order and was just about to leave.

Qian Renxue called him back again.

"And one more thing."

"Adjust all the Crown Prince Mansion's travel arrangements for the coming months."

"In one month, prepare a lavish gift of the highest standard."

"I will personally lead people to visit Blue Silver Academy, the academy that dares to confront even Spirit Hall head-on."

The scene shifted.

The former site of Shrek Academy outside Suotuo City.

Before the dilapidated wooden gate, Flender anxiously paced back and forth, his forehead covered in sweat.

Tang San, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and the others had also gathered in the courtyard, their gazes repeatedly turning toward the village entrance.

A spot in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament was simply too important to them.

It was Shrek's only chance to prove itself, as well as the stepping stone they needed to make their names known.

"Dean, stop pacing. With the Grandmaster going himself, there definitely won't be a problem."

Ma Hongjun chewed on a blade of grass, his face full of confidence.

"Boss Dai is a prince of the Star Luo Empire. Who would dare refuse to show him respect?"

Just then, two extremely bedraggled figures appeared on the small path at the village entrance.

Yu Xiaogang's clothes were tattered and his hair was disheveled. On his back, he carried Dai Mubai, whose face was bloodless and who had completely fallen unconscious.

The instant the two appeared, the atmosphere in the courtyard froze.

Flender's expression changed dramatically. He hurried forward and caught Yu Xiaogang, who was swaying on the verge of collapse.

"Xiaogang! How did you end up like this?"

"What happened to Mubai? Who injured him so badly?"

Everyone hurriedly carried Dai Mubai onto a flat wooden board.

Tang San immediately stepped forward and placed his fingers on Dai Mubai's wrist.

The instant he examined him, Tang San's expression turned extremely ugly, his brows knitting tightly together.

His pulse was utterly chaotic. A vicious, sinister chill remained inside his body, frantically destroying his meridians.
