Another month had passed. Less than a month remained until the Freshman Tournament, and many freshman classes were training frantically in preparation for the upcoming competition.

It was worth mentioning that Ning Tian had returned half a month ago, her soul power having increased by two whole ranks.

However, she did not mention Gu Chen at all. That was the agreement between Ning Tian and Mu En.

Inside the meditation chamber.

Gu Chen, who had been in seclusion for a month, slowly opened his eyes, a smug smile curling across his lips.

With his heaven-defying comprehension and the boost of the Dragon God Bloodline, he had successfully learned Mu En's two great skills: Sovereign Over All and the Dragon Emperor's Domain-Shaking Realm.

Although he had only grasped the basics, he could now wield them freely. Using them against enemies would not be a problem.

Moreover, Gu Chen had improved those skills and forged a path of his own.

Sovereign Over All had incorporated the enhancement of his bloodline, giving it true suppressive power. Once he suppressed someone, if that person failed to defeat him, they would be plagued by an inner demon for the rest of their life.

The Dragon Emperor's Domain-Shaking Realm had likewise incorporated his bloodline enhancement and been improved into the Dragon God's Domain-Shaking Realm.

Thus, after being improved, Mu En's skills had become Gu Chen's own skills, and he found them extremely easy to use.

Just then, Mu En appeared before Gu Chen out of nowhere, his hands clasped behind his back and a gentle smile on his face.

Gu Chen cupped his fists. "Elder Mu, I did not disappoint you. I have comprehended your skills and even created a path that belongs to me."

Mu En stroked his beard and smiled in satisfaction.

He had not expected Gu Chen to understand how to blaze his own trail at such a young age.

If it had been him, he would certainly have followed the path of those before him.

It seemed there was still a gap between geniuses and monsters.

Mu En immediately commented, "Excellent! You used my methods to create your own skills. Although you cannot yet unleash their full power, they are sufficient for now. In the future, you can steadily forge your own path and go even farther."

"It is all thanks to Elder Mu's excellent teaching." Gu Chen shamelessly flattered him.

As the saying went, flatter someone well, and opportunities would never be far away.

Of course, that only applied to powerful seniors. When facing his peers, Gu Chen would not hold back. He would be as arrogant as he pleased.

Mu En laughed as he stroked his beard, so pleased by the flattery that he nearly had the urge to give Gu Chen the Dragon Core as well.

But in the end, he restrained himself.

Gu Chen was not yet capable of handling that opportunity.

"Show this old man your skills. Let me see how they differ from mine," Mu En said.

"Alright!"

Gu Chen spread open his right hand, and Golden-Pattern Blue Silver Grass appeared in his palm as his first soul ring rose beneath his feet.

At that moment, he settled all his emotions and aura. Raising his right hand high, he drew upon the power of his bloodline and soul power, shouting, "Dragon God's Domain-Shaking Realm!"

Rumble—!

Even the formations inside the meditation chamber trembled as an incomparably terrifying pressure spread outward. A blood-red halo more than ten meters in diameter appeared above Gu Chen's head, and the enormous head of the Golden Dragon King emerged.

Immediately afterward, more than a dozen golden dragons shot out from the halo, hovering in midair like statues.

Gu Chen suddenly raised his hand.

In an instant, the dragon head in the center released an ancient roar. All the golden dragons soared into the sky together, shredding everything above them and breaking through every restraint.

Rumble!

After a series of sonic booms, the Dragon God's Domain-Shaking Realm ended. Gu Chen withdrew his soul power, and the formations within the meditation chamber returned to calm.

Fortunately, Gu Chen was not particularly strong at the moment. If he had been at the level of a Titled Douluo, a single dragon roar might have caused the entire Golden Ancient Tree to explode from within.

At that moment, Mu En was stunned.

What powerful bloodline strength. What terrifying dragon might.

The Dragon God's Domain-Shaking Realm Gu Chen had unleashed was actually even more terrifying than his own, making up for the weakness of the skill requiring an overwhelmingly powerful bloodline and martial soul.

No wonder he had always felt that something was missing whenever he used the Dragon Emperor's Domain-Shaking Realm. He had never expected that missing piece to be found in Gu Chen.

This child truly deserved to be called one with the Dragon King Bloodline!

Gu Chen turned around and asked, "Do you want me to demonstrate Sovereign Over All as well? Oh, it is now called Dragon God's Descent."

Mu En waved his hand, an approving smile appearing on his face. "Your talent is even greater than mine was in my youth. I never expected you to truly forge your own path through my guidance. Your future is boundless."

"If I had possessed a skill like yours in my youth, who knows how many evil soul masters I would have slaughtered."

Gu Chen smiled. "Elder Mu has already slain countless evil soul masters. If you kept killing them, there would be none left on the continent. Then what would the younger generation like us have left to do?"

Mu En was amused by the flattery once again.

Then, he took out a piece of Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue from his storage soul tool and gave it to Gu Chen.

"This is... Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue..."

Gu Chen held the Whale Glue in his hands, his eyes lighting up.

Although he had Whale Glue himself, this was the first time he had seen one of such high quality. Mu En truly lived up to his reputation as a treasure-hoarding man.

With such a generous elder, he would happily flatter him every day.

At this moment, Mu En suddenly thought of something and asked, "How many ranks has your soul power increased this time?"

Gu Chen carefully sensed himself before replying, "I am rank seventeen now."

Mu En was fairly satisfied with that result, but he also noticed a very fatal problem.

Gu Chen's soul power progressed even more slowly than an ultimate martial soul.

Perhaps that was why Gu Chen could defeat a three-ring soul master with only one ring.

Thinking of this, Mu En said, "Soul power can only be raised slowly. You cannot rush it. This old man has also noticed that your cultivation speed is very slow."

"By the way, when you have time, you can go train at Shrek Academy's Soul Fighting Arena. Perhaps you may gain something unexpected."

The Soul Fighting Arena?

Shrek Academy had a Soul Fighting Arena too? Why had he never heard anyone mention it?

"Elder Mu, why is Shrek Academy's Soul Fighting Arena not famous?" Gu Chen could not help asking.

Mu En said somewhat awkwardly, "Shrek Academy's Soul Fighting Arena is not open to the public. It is only open internally, but whenever soul fights are held, betting is opened in Shrek City."

Gu Chen understood.

So the Soul Fighting Arena was also one of Shrek Academy's ways of making money. Did that mean he could go all in on himself and get rich after one victory?

It seemed this place was also a must-visit.

Gu Chen was rather eager to fight Inner Court students. He did not want to spend every day playing house with Outer Court students.

However... being only rank seventeen and acting this boldly was truly a little outrageous.

"Alright, this old man should send you back. The Freshman Assessment is approaching as well."

Mu En called out earnestly, then walked out of the meditation chamber with his hands behind his back.

Gu Chen immediately followed.

Early the next morning.

Inside the classroom of Freshman Class Nine, Mu Jin was teaching the students a theory lesson.

Below the platform, Ning Tian and the others sat in a row.

Just then, Gu Chen arrived at the doorway and suddenly said, "Long time no see, everyone!"

That simple sentence instantly drew the attention of everyone in Class Nine. Ning Tian, Wu Feng, and Xie Huanyue all turned to look at him.

Their faces immediately lit up with joy!

It was him!

Gu Chen was back!

The entire Class Nine instantly erupted. The students rose to their feet and cheered. Their big brother had returned.

Mu Jin turned to look at Gu Chen. A gentle smile appeared on his pretty oval face as he said softly, "You came back so quickly. Then today's theory lesson will end here. Class dismissed, everyone."

With that, Mu Jin turned and left.

The next moment, the students all swarmed forward.

"Big Brother, I missed you so much!"

Xie Huanyue spread his arms and rushed forward to hug Gu Chen, looking like a child without a mother.

Anyone who did not know better would have thought Xie Huanyue and Gu Chen were gay.

Gu Chen hurriedly pushed the chubby boy away and warned him, "My sexual orientation is perfectly normal. Do not start anything weird."

Xie Huanyue chuckled, realizing that his behavior had indeed been inappropriate.

Then, the students of Freshman Class Nine came forward to ask after Gu Chen, each asking different questions.

"You got stronger again!"

At that moment, Ning Tian flashed Gu Chen a toothy smile, noticing that his soul power rank had risen considerably.

Wu Feng narrowed her eyes as well and said in a low voice, "Your bloodline suppression over dragon martial souls has become stronger. My Red Dragon Martial Soul is even more afraid of you now."

Xie Huanyue sniffed as well, but he could not sense anything different.

Women truly were strange creatures. They could tell that Gu Chen's soul power had improved with a single sniff, as if they were worms in his stomach.

Gu Chen said, "Just a small improvement. Since class ended so early today, let's go out and relax together. I can also give you some pointers on your combat techniques."

His proposal was immediately approved by Ning Tian and the others, and they were given another day off.

Gu Chen and the others happily went to the cafeteria for a good meal, then headed to the Soul Fighting Arena to train and prepare for the upcoming Freshman Assessment, also known as the Freshman Tournament.
