Revenge on Shrek Academy!

Spirit Kite Douluo watched the scene quietly from the side, a hint of approval in her eyes.

"Tianshui Academy is indeed suitable for your early transition."

Spirit Kite Douluo slowly stepped forward and handed Long Tian a token engraved with Spirit Hall's exclusive insignia.

"Take this token. If you encounter any difficulties, you may call upon the local branch of Spirit Hall at any time."

Long Tian accepted the token with both hands and respectfully put it into his storage soul tool.

"Thank you, Teacher."

Spirit Kite Douluo nodded slightly, then flashed away and vanished into the night.

"Let's go back to Tianshui Academy."

After steadying herself, Shui Bing'er extended an invitation to Long Tian.

Long Tian followed closely behind her.

The two figures darted through the Star Dou Great Forest beneath the moonlight, speeding toward Tianshui Academy.

Tianshui Academy was located in Ice and Snow City in the northern region of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Snow covered the city all year round, and the cold wind was biting.

After arriving at Tianshui Academy, Long Tian was assigned a quiet, secluded courtyard of his own.

The environment was peaceful and perfectly suited for secluded cultivation.

Other than necessary meals, he devoted all his remaining time to cultivation.

The power of the Rainbow Dragon's Heart circulated endlessly within him, constantly nourishing his meridians.

The Nine-Colored True Dragon Bloodline within his body also became increasingly pure.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

This day.

Inside the cultivation room.

Long Tian sat cross-legged upon a cold jade bed.

Faint rings of nine-colored divine light surrounded his body.

Suddenly.

An extremely tyrannical aura erupted from Long Tian's body.

His violent soul power condensed into tangible waves of air that surged through the sealed cultivation room.

Long Tian opened his eyes.

The divine radiance in his Nine-Colored Double Pupils flared brilliantly.

Feeling the abundant and surging power within him, Long Tian's lips curved upward in a satisfied smile.

"Level thirty-five."

Long Tian murmured softly.

With the enhancement of the Rainbow Dragon's Heart and the ten-thousand-year soul ring, his soul power had risen another level.

A level thirty-five Soul Elder.

Long Tian rose to his feet and brushed the dust from his robes.

"Three months."

"Shrek Academy, you expelled me back then on the grounds that you already had two auxiliary soul masters."

"Now, I am no longer the same."

"A gentleman's revenge is not too late after three months."

Long Tian's gaze passed through the cultivation room window toward the distance, a cold glint flashing through his eyes.

The cultivation room door slowly opened.

Long Tian stepped outside.

His white robes were whiter than snow, while his ink-black hair fell loosely over his shoulders.

A calm expression rested on his handsome yet demonic face as he walked along the academy's tree-lined path.

As the only top academy on the continent that admitted solely female students, Tianshui Academy ordinarily did not have even a single male student in sight.

However, Long Tian's talent had been far too heaven-defying when he enrolled, prompting the academy's higher-ups to make an exception and admit him.

At that moment, the Tianshui Academy girls passing nearby all stopped in their tracks, their gazes turning in unison toward Long Tian.

"Look, it's Junior Long Tian."

A female student in a blue short skirt tugged at her companion's sleeve and exclaimed softly.

"Oh my god, Junior Long Tian is really so handsome. Every time I see him, my heart races."

Another girl clasped her hands to her chest, her eyes shining brightly.

"It's not just his looks. His strength is what's truly terrifying."

"He's only been enrolled for three months, yet he has already taken first place in the academy's assessments."

"I heard even Senior Shui Bing'er lost to Junior Long Tian."

"With talent like that, he's practically a god descended to earth."

Whispers continued to rise all around him.

Long Tian seemed to notice those burning stares and turned to glance at the crowd by the roadside.

When they noticed Long Tian looking their way, several female students immediately flushed red with excitement and stomped their feet in agitation.

"Long Tian."

A clear, lovely call came from ahead.

Shui Bing'er strode over quickly on her long legs.

Her fitted Tianshui Academy uniform perfectly accentuated her tall, slender figure.

Shui Bing'er stopped before Long Tian, looked him over with her beautiful eyes, and suddenly revealed a startled expression.

"You leveled up again?"

Shui Bing'er cried out in surprise.

Long Tian nodded slightly, his expression as calm as ever.

"I'm already level thirty-five."

"You really are a monster."

Shui Bing'er shook her head with a wry smile.

Long Tian's expression turned serious as he looked at Shui Bing'er and got to the point.

"Bing'er, there's something I need your help with."

Seeing Long Tian's serious expression, Shui Bing'er put aside her earlier amazement and listened intently.

"As long as it's something I can do, I'll give it everything I have."

Long Tian's gaze narrowed slightly as he spoke slowly.

"Next, I intend to challenge Shrek Academy to a friendly match in Tianshui Academy's name."

"You want to spar with Shrek Academy?"

A strange flicker passed through Shui Bing'er's beautiful eyes.

Very quickly, that flicker turned to understanding.

Naturally, she knew about Long Tian's past.

He had been expelled by Shrek Academy because they "already had two auxiliary soul masters." No one could simply let go of such humiliation.

Especially not Long Tian, an unparalleled genius possessing true dragon bloodline.

Those people at Shrek Academy truly had to be blind.

"Shrek Academy is nothing but a bunch of blind fools."

"They actually threw away a genius like you as if you were trash."

"I agree to this."

Shui Bing'er gave her answer without hesitation.

"However, a friendly match usually requires a complete seven-person team."

"Should we gather the other sisters now?"

Shui Bing'er looked at Long Yun before her and asked.

Long Tian gently shook his head, looking utterly untroubled.

"There's no need to trouble the other senior sisters."

"The two of us will be enough for this battle."

Looking at Long Tian's handsome, demonic face, Shui Bing'er's admiration for him grew even stronger.

This confidence was not arrogance. It came from absolute strength.

"But Shrek Academy has seven people."

"There are only two of us. Won't we be at a disadvantage?"

Shui Bing'er looked at Long Tian with some concern.

"Two will be enough to deal with them."

Long Tian's expression remained calm.

"Alright, I'll apply to the dean right away and submit a letter of challenge to Shrek Academy."

Shui Bing'er turned and left, her steps light.

Outside Soto City, Heaven Dou Empire.

The blazing sun hung high in the sky, and the dry air was enough to make anyone irritable.

Spiderwebs still hung from the signboard above Shrek Academy's dilapidated gates.

Several figures stood beneath the scorching sun, waiting in boredom.

"Master, why has Tianshui Academy suddenly asked us for a friendly match?"

Oscar wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Yu Xiaogang in confusion.

Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, his brow slightly furrowed.

"Tianshui Academy is one of the Five Element Academies and possesses an extraordinary foundation."

"Logically speaking, with Shrek's current reputation, they should not have taken the initiative to notice us."

"As for the exact reason, we'll naturally know once they arrive."

Tang San lightly brushed the dust from his sleeve and stepped to Yu Xiaogang's side.

"Teacher, regardless of Tianshui Academy's purpose, this is a good thing for us."

A stalk of deep-blue Bluesilver Grass appeared in his palm.

"My soul power recently broke through to level twenty-six, and the Mysterious Heaven Technique has also made a new breakthrough."

"I was just worried that I had no suitable opponent to test the results of my practical combat training."
