"Principal, what just happened?"
A teacher stepped forward and asked.
"Nothing much. It should be the Grandmaster giving that boy a private lesson!"
The Principal waved his hand.
"A lesson?"
"What were those two thunderous tiger roars just now?"
"The Grandmaster's Martial Soul isn't a tiger, and that boy's Martial Soul seemed to be a Black Dragon."
The teacher looked somewhat puzzled.
"It is rather strange, but the Grandmaster never does things by convention. We needn't concern ourselves with it."
The Principal was also somewhat confused, but he knew the Grandmaster's theories were highly unconventional. So, he felt that something like this was not a big deal.
"Principal, just what is Li Daotian's background? How could he earn such praise from the Grandmaster?"
The teacher asked curiously again.
"I don't know. We should ask as little as possible about this matter."
"But one thing is clear: Li Daotian is definitely Titled Douluo material!"
After giving the other man a meaningful look, the Principal smiled and walked outside.
If Notting College produced a Titled Douluo in the future, the college's reputation would soar and attract even more outstanding students.
"A Titled Douluo?!"
Upon hearing those words, the teacher's face filled with utter shock.
That was a height beyond the reach of ordinary people.
They could be called the top experts of Douluo Continent.
No wonder the Grandmaster was so painstakingly nurturing and guiding such a promising talent.
"Go calm the other students and have them get some proper sleep."
After giving the order, the Principal left the dormitory.
The teacher hurried toward the other dormitories.
Inside the room.
Li Daotian got dressed. Fortunately, the Principal had not pushed the door open just now, or he would have embarrassed himself.
"Young Master, you seem to possess a special Bloodline?"
Yu Xiaogang asked at that moment.
"That's right. I possess the Mystic Tiger Bloodline, and I have fully awakened it."
Li Daotian said to him.
"Young Master, I understand now. Whale Gum can awaken Bloodline power and enhance a Soul Master's physique!"
Yu Xiaogang said thoughtfully.
"You could put it that way."
Li Daotian nodded slightly.
"Young Master is indeed exceptionally brilliant. Xiaogang has learned much."
Yu Xiaogang cupped his hands.
"Enough. Go back first. With my current physique, perhaps it is time to obtain a Soul Ring. Keep an eye out for one."
Li Daotian waved his hand.
His physique was now strong enough that acquiring a Soul Ring a few hundred years old would not be a problem at all.
This subordinate will return and study it carefully."
Yu Xiaogang cupped his hands again and withdrew.
After he left, Li Daotian stretched his body once more and said expectantly, "Xiao Wu, tomorrow I'll definitely let you experience just how formidable your Brother Tian is."
Over the past few days, whenever he sparred with Xiao Wu, she had always suppressed him.
The hundred-thousand-year Soft Bone Rabbit had honed her Combat Technique to perfection, causing him to suffer quite a few losses.
Afterward, he sensed his Soul Power and found that it seemed to have improved as well.
"Has my Soul Power perhaps reached level 11?"
"My physique improved, and my Soul Power rose along with it!"
Li Daotian was pleasantly surprised.
His hard work over these days had not been in vain.
Notting City Lord's Mansion.
Inside a luxurious room in the rear courtyard, Xiao Chenyu clenched both fists, his face full of rage.
"Li Daotian, you beat the shit out of me in public. I will definitely avenge this!"
"And I'll take back my title as the boss of the academy!"
After several days of recuperation, Xiao Chenyu had mostly recovered. The flames of vengeance flickered in his eyes.
However, there was one thing that felt wrong to him. He had always learned things quickly before, but ever since Li Daotian had beaten the shit out of him, he had become much slower at learning.
He felt as though he had become stupid?!
Even the steward had noticed this.
But the physician had examined him and found no damage to his brain.
"What exactly is going on?"
Xiao Chenyu could not figure it out.
"Forget it. I won't think about it anymore. Tomorrow, when I return to school, I'll strike again. This time, I'll use my Martial Soul directly and let Li Daotian experience the might of my Soul Skill."
"Last time, I let him exploit an opening."
Xiao Chenyu said coldly.
After pondering it for several days, he concluded that the reason Li Daotian had beaten the shit out of him was because Li Daotian had not allowed him to use his Martial Soul.
Otherwise, Li Daotian would have been the one to lose.
The next day, Li Daotian went to class as usual.
The teachers looked at him differently now, their gazes carrying a hint of favor.
"What is wrong with these teachers?"
Li Daotian was puzzled.
He did not understand.
Little did he know that the Principal's assessment of him as Titled Douluo potential had already spread throughout the academy.
After school, Li Mu and Xiao Wu walked out of the classroom.
"Brother Tian, did you make another breakthrough last night?"
Xiao Wu moved close to him and asked curiously.
"Yes, my Mystic Tiger Bloodline erupted."
"Come on, I'll let you see how formidable I am."
Li Daotian took Xiao Wu's hand and headed toward the lawn outside.
They had not gone far when a familiar figure approached.
It was Xiao Chenyu, followed by two lackeys.
"It's you!"
Li Daotian was somewhat surprised. He had not expected Xiao Chenyu to appear again.
"Li Daotian, I heard that you've been throwing your weight around at the academy these past few days and have already taken the boss's position!"
Xiao Chenyu pointed at Li Daotian, his face filled with displeasure.
That was an honor that belonged to him, a senior student!
Yet it had been taken away by a junior student. He could not accept it at all.
"Who did you hear that from?"
"I, Li Daotian, have no interest in becoming the boss of Notting College."
Li Daotian was not particularly interested in being some boss and spoke indifferently.
"Then why have you come looking for me again?"
Li Daotian asked.
"Hmph, I came to defeat you and wash away my humiliation!"
Fury blazed in Xiao Chenyu's eyes.
"Defeat me?"
"You may never get another chance."
Li Daotian raised one finger and gently wagged it, speaking with considerable arrogance.
After the Mystic Tiger Bloodline erupted, he could unleash terrifying strength through Combat Technique alone.
Even if Xiao Chenyu used his Martial Soul, that little strength of his would not make him Li Daotian's opponent.
"Is that so?"
"Li Daotian, I will defeat you completely!"
"Wolf Martial Soul, possess me!"
Xiao Chenyu shouted, immediately releasing his Soul Power. A vicious wolf head appeared above him and instantly merged with his body.
The next second, furry claws appeared on Xiao Chenyu's hands. He looked half-human and half-beast, radiating savage ferocity.
"A Wolf Martial Soul. It looks pretty good."
"But let me show you what a Mystic Tiger is!"
Li Daotian smiled and activated his Bloodline. His clothes immediately swelled as his muscles bulged powerfully.
Then, with a sudden stride, he swung his arm and hurled a punch straight at Xiao Chenyu.
"Courting death!"
Seeing that Li Daotian showed no fear at all, Xiao Chenyu roared angrily and swung his claws, intending to tear open Li Daotian's fist in one stroke.
However, he had overestimated himself. The moment his claws landed on Li Daotian's fist, they were blasted back by a powerful force!
