I Will Protect You

"Who are you?"

Aside from Yun Feng and Tang Wulin, the others did not recognize Divine Light Douluo. Seeing him walk in, they were quite surprised.

"I am Divine Light Douluo, the dean of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy."

Divine Light Douluo spoke his identity in a slow, measured voice.

The group was even more astonished upon hearing this, and a chorus of gasps erupted. However, Divine Light Douluo's gaze fell upon Xu Jiuyue. It was one thing for the others not to recognize him, but she didn't either?

Did her family not teach her some basic common knowledge when they sent her to study at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy?

"Let's go!"

Feeling a bit stifled, Divine Light Douluo waved his hand.

The group followed him out of the classroom.

About half an hour passed before the teacher who had been lecturing earlier walked in from outside.

"Alright... next, we will cover—"

His words stuck in his throat.

Looking at the empty classroom, the teacher wore a look of utter confusion.

What was going on?

Where were the students?

"Someone! Help! The students are gone!"

The teacher immediately shouted.

The preparatory students all had significant backgrounds; if something happened to them, his career as a teacher would be over.

Even if he wasn't torn to shreds by the angry families of the students, he would be dismissed by the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy.

But just as he was calling for help, he was told that these students had been taken away by Divine Light Douluo himself, and he was told not to worry.

Upon learning this, the teacher felt a weight lifted off his shoulders!

"Good!"

"That's great!"

He was safe.

Great Soul Arena District.

The Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy had many Soul Fighting Arenas, most of which were occupied by students from the inner and outer academies.

Preparatory students were so young that they generally did not use the Soul Fighting Arenas.

Therefore, when Divine Light Douluo personally came to ask the management of the Great Soul Arena District for a venue, the staff member looked at him in surprise, thinking he was joking.

"Your Excellency Divine Light, are you serious?"

He asked.

"Of course!"

Divine Light Douluo nodded.

The staff member craned his neck to look at the dozens of preparatory students following behind and blinked.

"This... alright then!"

After all, Divine Light Douluo was the dean!

If any other teacher had brought preparatory students over, they would never have allowed it.

On the arena, both sides stood their ground.

Tang Wulin stood directly in front of Yun Feng.

"Little sister, stand behind me! I will protect you."

Protect?

Him?

Her?

Although Tang Wulin's Soul Power Level had increased by one level after the stimulation from the awakening of the Gold Dragon King's power, he was still only at level five.

Moreover, even this one-level increase likely wasn't due to absorbing the Gold Dragon King's power.

That portion of the Gold Dragon King's power had already been retrieved by Yun Feng. The reason Tang Wulin had increased by this level was likely because other powers within his body were beginning to take effect.

Yun Feng remembered.

When Tang Wulin was born, the Life Goddess had given him a blessing.

It had previously been suppressed by the power of the Gold Dragon King, but now that the power had been taken away by Yun Feng, this strength was gradually revealing itself.

One day, even without the power of the Gold Dragon King, Tang Wulin would be able to become one of the top powerhouses on the Douluo Continent!

However...

That was a matter for the future.

Even if the future was bright, he only had level five soul power at the moment.

Yun Feng had level fifteen!

It was hard to say who was protecting whom.

Thinking this, Yun Feng smiled, leaned toward Tang Wulin's shoulder, and whispered to him, "Then big brother must protect me well."

When Yun Feng said this, she deliberately softened her tone, her warm breath brushing against Tang Wulin's ear.

Tang Wulin shivered.

"Yes!"

"I will definitely protect you well!"

His fighting spirit soared.

The three on the opposite side looked at each other with unconcealed disdain.

"Don't drag me down later."

Xu Jiuyue glanced at Xu Feiyu and Xu Guangyu, snorting as she warned them.

"Likewise."

Xu Guangyu replied.

Only Xu Feiyu remained silent, simply stepping back.

Divine Light Douluo stood on the arena. He looked up toward the spectator stands and, seeing Ya Li and Long Tianwu there, gave a light cough.

"Alright!"

"Remember, friendship first, competition second!"

"Yun Feng, go easy on them."

He specifically gave Yun Feng a reminder.

After all, among this group of preparatory students, she was the only one who had reached level fifteen.

The three on the opposite side hadn't even added a Soul Ring yet!

Hearing Divine Light Douluo specifically tell Yun Feng to go easy, the surrounding students couldn't help but grow curious, wondering what kind of ability Yun Feng actually possessed.

Everyone watched the battlefield with curiosity.

"Understood."

Yun Feng nodded in agreement.

"The match begins!"

Divine Light Douluo waved his hand and stepped off the arena.

He stood to the side to observe.

On the field.

Xu Guangyu shouted and immediately released his Martial Soul.

His Martial Soul was the Purple Radiant Annihilation Dragon, and upon its release, an ancient, primordial aura rushed toward them.

Even without a Soul Ring, the Purple Radiant Annihilation Dragon felt full of oppressive force.

Unfortunately.

Yun Feng was the Gold Dragon King.

The orthodox Dragon God!

How dare they act arrogant in front of her?

Xu Jiuyue's Martial Soul was a bright moon.

When the moonlight rose, it cast a dreamlike veil over the Purple Radiant Annihilation Dragon, making it appear even more mysterious and majestic.

Xu Feiyu stood in the back, took a deep breath, and didn't move.

"I'm coming!"

Xu Guangyu roared and charged forward!

Yun Feng took a step back.

Tang Wulin clenched his fists, and Blue Silver Grass grew wildly around him, quickly encompassing the area around him and Yun Feng.

Yun Feng looked down at the Blue Silver Grass growing at her feet.

"Blue Silver Grass?"

Xu Guangyu looked surprised.

A Soul Master with a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul in the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy?

However, those who could join the preparatory class were no ordinary people.

After a brief moment of surprise, Xu Guangyu regained his focus and, with Xu Jiuyue's help, charged toward Tang Wulin.

The two soon clashed.

Without a Soul Ring, there were no soul skills, so both sides were competing purely on soul power and the quality of their Martial Souls.

Blue Silver Grass that had not yet become the Blue Silver Emperor could not compare to the Purple Radiant Annihilation Dragon.

The moment they engaged, Tang Wulin fell into a disadvantage, forced to constantly block the punches flying from Xu Guangyu.

Yun Feng had no intention of making a move.

"Huh?"

Seeing Yun Feng not attacking, the spectators were also confused.

Long Tianwu said, "Why isn't Yun Feng moving?"

Looking at the situation, Tang Wulin clearly couldn't beat Xu Guangyu; was she going to let Tang Wulin lose?

"Haven't you noticed that Xu Feiyu in the back hasn't moved at all?"

Su Mengjun said from the side.

"Hmm?"

Long Tianwu frowned.

He turned his head to look, and heard Su Mengjun say, "I think Yun Feng must be waiting for Xu Feiyu to join in before she strikes, to put pressure on all three of them at once!"

"Isn't the reason she proposed this match to make the three of them unite?"
