The three instructors received the news.

"Little Qin Qi beat up people from Kamikaze Academy again!"

Meng Shenji frowned slightly when he heard the news. They had just fought Blazing Fire Academy, and now they were fighting Kamikaze Academy again.

"I heard that people from Kamikaze Academy wanted to lure Little Qin Qi out of the academy with some underhanded scheme."

"But Little Qin Qi saw through their plan and led people straight at them, defeating them."

"That Kamikaze Academy genius, Feng Xiaotian, was beaten into a pig's head."

Zhi Lin spoke.

"Eh, so according to you, this time it wasn't our academy's fault either?"

Meng Shenji's expression suddenly changed. Since the other academy had started the trouble, the situation was different.

"According to our academy's students, the other academy was indeed the one that started it."

Zhi Lin said.

"Then they deserved a beating. They should have been beaten hard. By the way, is this Feng Xiaotian you mentioned the one with the mutated two-headed wolf Martial Soul and Innate Full Soul Power?"

Bai Baoshan asked.

"Yes, that Feng Xiaotian."

Zhi Lin nodded.

"That is certainly good, but I'm worried about what the other academies will think of us."

Meng Shenji thought it was good. It had boosted their academy's reputation, but he was concerned about the other four Elemental Academies.

Would they see this as a provocation? If so, that would be troublesome.

At Skywater Academy.

"Big Sis, have you heard? Huo Wu from Blazing Fire Academy and Feng Xiaotian from Kamikaze Academy were defeated by Heaven Dou Royal Academy one after another."

"Everyone is saying that Heaven Dou Academy intends to defeat the major Elemental Academies in one go and establish its reputation as Heaven Dou's number one academy."

Xue Wu told Shui Bing'er what she had heard, her eyes revealing a hint of worry.

"Everyone says their next target is our Skywater Academy. Big Sis, what should we do?"

Xue Wu asked.

"We won't be afraid if they come. Blazing Fire and Kamikaze losing is their business. We may not necessarily lose."

Frost enveloped Shui Bing'er's body. Her gaze was full of composure and calm. Though she was the youngest in the academy, she was also the strongest.

Meanwhile, Skywater Academy's headmistress had also received the news. After considering it, she decided to take the initiative.

She went to find the instructors of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, intending for the two academies to hold a joint soul-fighting match.

When Skywater Academy's headmistress arrived at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, she suddenly discovered that the heads of all Five Elemental Academies were already there.

The heads of Skywater, Kamikaze, Thunderclap, Blazing Fire, and Elephant Armored Academy had all arrived. They exchanged glances, and their intentions were perfectly clear.

"Three instructors, the young people in the academies have been rather high-spirited lately, so we intend to let the students have an exchange."

"I wonder what the three of you think?"

Skywater Academy's headmistress said.

"We... have no objections. Mutual exchanges and sparring are good things."

"But I don't think it would be appropriate to hold it in such haste. How about this? Give us some time to prepare."

"We'll prepare an arena and rewards for the victors, and make this sparring event something proper."

Meng Shenji stroked his beard, then agreed to the request from the heads of the Five Elemental Academies.

This truly was a good opportunity—an opportunity to wash away Heaven Dou Royal Academy's reputation as a trash academy.

It was an opportunity to clear the academy's name.

"Very well, then I'll state my position first."

"The final winning team can come to our academy's top-tier simulated cultivation grounds and train there for one month!"

Kamikaze Academy stepped forward to speak. To them, money held little meaning.

However, each academy's unique cultivation grounds were extremely precious. They were treasured places that could effectively increase a Soul Master's cultivation speed!

"Our Skywater Academy will provide Millennium Profound Ice as the prize."

After thinking for a moment, Skywater Academy's headmistress spoke.

"You old woman, you're really stingy. But then again, your academy is full of girls, so I suppose that's the extent of your generosity."

"I... Blazing Fire Academy will provide top-tier body-tempering medicinal baths. Our academy will cover all the medicinal ingredients the victors require!"

Blazing Fire Academy possessed special flame-tempering medicinal baths that could remove impurities from the body to the greatest extent possible.

However, the formula for those medicinal baths was secret, and the cost was enormous. Ordinary students normally had no access to them.

"I'll put up a millennium Spirit Bone!"

"But if our academy wins, then from now on, the Five Elemental Academies will regard Thunderclap Academy as their leader!"

Thunderclap Academy's head was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan, and he immediately offered a millennium Spirit Bone.

"A millennium Spirit Bone!"

"What a lavish offer!"

"They really think victory is guaranteed!"

"They even want to become the head of the Five Academies. That's going too far!"

"Those Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon people are truly arrogant!"

At once, the three instructors and the heads of the other academies could not help frowning. To offer something so precious as a prize...

They were certain they would win it. Certain that the prize would belong to them.

"Fine. Since Thunderclap Academy is making such a lavish offer, Heaven Dou Royal Academy cannot show weakness either."

"We are willing to petition His Majesty and offer a noble title as the reward for this competition!"

"The three of us instructors will personally sponsor a set of Soul Master cultivation plans, the latest version."

After discussing it among themselves, the three instructors of Heaven Dou Royal Academy also presented their terms.

"Soul Master cultivation plans!"

The academy heads did not care at all about any noble title. A Heaven Dou royal title held no real value.

It was merely an empty title without any fief. Aside from sounding impressive, it was useless.

But Soul Master cultivation plans were different. Meng Shenji and the other two were great authorities in the field of Soul Master theory.

Many new theories had been proposed by the three of them. The academy heads were very curious about what new teaching plans they had developed.

After agreeing on the rewards, everyone began discussing when it would begin and what procedures would be followed.

Once everything had been settled, everyone returned to their academies.

Blazing Fire Academy.

"Wushuang, Xiao Wu, your father has secured an opportunity for you to take revenge this time."

"You must work hard this time. You absolutely cannot lose to them again!"

"Train hard during this period and strive to break through Rank 30 as soon as possible. This time, we'll give the other academies a crushing advantage!"

The students of Blazing Fire Academy brought out all their resources, preparing to fiercely outwork the other academies. This time, their victory was assured!

Kamikaze Academy.

"Feng Xiaotian, you were already beaten badly last time, but you absolutely cannot lose again this time!"

"Starting today, you will enter Hurricane Gorge to train. You will eat, drink, sleep, and relieve yourself inside. You are not allowed out for even a minute!"

"Your teammates too. Get in there and train!"

"Oh, and to hone your actual combat ability, I will personally train you from now on!"

Kamikaze Academy also began its intense competition. An Rank 80 Soul Douluo personally stepped in to spar with Feng Xiaotian and the others.

He refused to believe anyone could outwork him. He was not only pushing his students to the limit—he was pushing himself as well!

Skywater Academy.

"Bing'er, Yue'er, you must continue working hard on your Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"

"Our confidence in victory this time rests in your hands!"

"During this period, stay by my side. I will use my Soul Power to assist your cultivation!"

Skywater Academy's headmistress directly used her own Soul Power to assist Shui Bing'er and the others in cultivating. She had pushed the competition to the absolute extreme!

Thunderclap Academy.

"The Thunderclap Body Tempering Art—so long as you aren't struck to death, keep getting struck!"

"All of you grit your teeth and endure it. Before the competition begins, every one of you must reach Soul Elder!"

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan immediately began brutally training their disciples. As long as they did not die, they would be trained to death!

Those who were nearly trained to death were tossed straight into medicinal baths. Once their bodies recovered, they continued training without stopping, twenty-four hours a day!

As for Qin Qi's side.

"Ah, soul fighting is about to begin, and we have to start competing too? Fine, I understand. I'll eat two extra meals today."

Qin Qi received the news. In order to outwork the others, he planned to spend a little more money and buy a few extra pounds of Soul Beast meat.

Then, together with the Strength-Eating Immortal Gu, he would dig in fiercely, eat diligently, and eat with everything he had!
