"Th-this, I recognized you just from your aura, so naturally there was no need to look at your appearance."

"I see."

Dugu Bo suddenly understood. Dugu Yan had reacted that way because she was familiar with his aura, and she would not feel afraid either.

"P-Poison Douluo, I was just about to see the education committee members, but since I ran into you first, I'll tell you directly."

"Blue Tyrant Academy's headmaster, Liu Erlong, has arrived. She said she wants to see Ye Lingling."

This teacher could no longer spare any thought for fear. He knew all too well of Liu Erlong's formidable reputation. Her temperament was extremely fiery; if he provoked her, it would not be as simple as reasoning things out. She would just throw a punch—who could withstand that?

Liu Erlong wanted to see Ye Lingling too?

What was wrong with everyone now? Did they all need to rely on that girl Ye Lingling?

"I understand. You may return first. I was planning to visit the education committee office anyway."

"Thank you, Your Excellency!"

"What a strange woman. If I recall correctly, Liu Erlong is a Soul Douluo, and one of the renowned Golden Iron Triangle of the soul master world?"

Shaking his head, Dugu Bo did not take her seriously at all. The Golden Sacred Dragon, the three-person fusion skill said to rival a Title Douluo—at his current strength, he had nothing to fear from it.

Soul Power surged beneath his feet, and Dugu Bo flew directly toward the education committee office.

"Headmaster Liu, Ye Lingling currently has other matters to attend to. Besides, we truly cannot force her to agree without authorization."

Inside the office, Liu Erlong was continuously arguing with the three education committee members, neither side willing to yield.

Meng Shenji and the others were in quite a difficult position as well. This was already the second group to come looking for Ye Lingling today. Soul masters losing arms and legs was supposedly normal, but two people suffering that at once in a single day was simply absurd!

"Then have her come see me. I'll speak to her personally!"

"Hmph, what a violent temper. Do you really think you can come and go from Heaven Dou Royal Academy as you please?"

Boom!

Just as Liu Erlong was about to say something else, a deep, powerful voice from outside interrupted her, accompanied by an overwhelmingly oppressive aura.

A Title Douluo!

Liu Erlong's feet sank, and the pressure nearly made her lose her footing.

"You're Liu Erlong? You look rather young, yet your cultivation is quite high. But with me still at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, you dare to behave so recklessly!?"

Dugu Bo entered the office with his hands behind his back, his expression calm as he walked forward at an unhurried pace.

"I... did not come to provoke anyone. But there truly is a student in the academy who urgently needs the treatment of the Nine-Heart Begonia."

Bearing the pressure of a Title Douluo, Liu Erlong felt as though a mountain were crushing down upon her. Even the Fire Dragon martial soul within her seemed to be firmly suppressed.

This was far too absurd. Everyone knew that Poison Douluo Dugu Bo's martial soul was the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor. How could it suppress her Fire Dragon?

"Have you noticed? Poison Douluo's strength seems to have increased considerably."

"Indeed. I have witnessed his power before, and it was far inferior to what it is now."

Meng Shenji and the other two quietly discussed it among themselves. Dugu Bo had not only changed drastically in appearance, but his strength had also grown even more formidable.

An opportunity capable of rapidly strengthening a Title Douluo...

Hearing Liu Erlong's words, Dugu Bo snorted and said,

"Not long ago, some Shrek Academy people came begging for the Nine-Heart Begonia, all to save a lustful little brat. What are you trying to save? Don't tell me it's some worthless trash?"

"You!"

Liu Erlong's heart tightened at his words, because the lustful little brat Dugu Bo mentioned seemed to be Dai Mubai.

Seeing the woman's reaction, Dugu Bo knew he had likely guessed correctly. Whoever she had come to save might truly not be any decent person.

"Leave. You aren't welcome here. Blue Tyrant Academy doesn't sound like any good place to me!"

In the end, Liu Erlong still left, filled with rage and indignation. The other party was too powerful; she was not even qualified to raise her voice.

Dai Mubai could only pray for his own luck.

Two and a half hours passed (five hours).

Yun Tian knew nothing of what had happened in the education committee office. As he watched the two people before him, who were nearly done refining the herbs, a translucent panel slowly unfolded before his eyes.

First came Dugu Yan's traits.

[Gold Phosphor Poison Bone], [Purple Phosphor Corrosion], [Blue Vein Essence Drain], [Blue Heartguard]

Other than [Jade Phosphor Poison Bone] changing from purple to gold quality, the rest had not changed much.

The Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma primarily strengthened one's foundation, nourished one's essence, replenished qi, and increased cultivation. For Gangzi's Luo Sanpao martial soul, it could even repair the innate defect in his martial soul, allowing him to break through level thirty.

For that very reason, Dugu Yan had not gained any other new traits.

As for why it had turned gold quality, Yun Tian guessed that it was likely a chain reaction caused by the change in Dugu Bo's bloodline.

Suddenly, Yun Tian looked at the [Jade Phosphor Corrosion] trait, and a wonderful idea arose in his mind.

"System, change Jade Phosphor Corrosion into Jade Phosphor Divine Body?"

[Jade Phosphor Corrosion is being transformed...]

[Rainbow Phosphor Divine Body: The Jade Phosphorous Serpent bloodline has been elevated, forging the Jade Phosphor Divine Body. The user's innate deadly poison will only erupt outward and will never backlash against the user.]

Boom!

Dugu Yan's aura suddenly erupted. Fine jade-green scales began to form over her originally fair, supple skin. Her cheeks, forehead, and arms—these changes gave her an unusual beauty, enchanting yet dangerous.

Roar!!

The Jade Phosphorous Serpent let out a dragon's roar, and a jade-green pillar of light shot into the sky, instantly drawing Dugu Bo's attention in the education committee office.

"What's going on?!"

He hurriedly rose and walked to the bedside. The pillar of light rising from the residential area could be seen throughout the entire academy.

"That's... in the direction of that brat Yun Tian?"

Bang!

Dugu Bo could not care about anything else. Soul Power explosively surged from him as he shot straight toward that direction.

"This commotion is way too huge!"

Yun Tian frowned and sat directly between Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling. His spear intent instantly enveloped himself and Ye Lingling.

He could not let this disturbance affect her refinement of the Immortal Herb.

Ignoring the objects in the room being blown about, Yun Tian stared fixedly at the traits changing on the panel.

[Rainbow Phosphor Divine Body], [Gold Phosphor Poison Bone], [Purple Vein Essence Guard], [Blue Heartguard]

[Gold Phosphor Poison Bone: The martial soul possesses extremely high quality, granting immunity to the vast majority of poisons and greater affinity for poison attributes.]

[Purple Vein Essence Guard: Influenced by absorbed poisons, the toxins within the body protect one's foundation over the long term, accelerating cultivation while safeguarding the meridians.]

They were all positive traits!

Yun Tian nodded in satisfaction at the panel. For soul masters like them who cultivated poison techniques, once their most crucial traits became positive, the resulting chain reaction would be terrifying!

While Dugu Yan's martial soul was still changing, Yun Tian hurriedly looked at Ye Lingling behind him. She, too, had begun to show some changes.
