Yan Shaozhe was stunned, meeting Zhang Lexuan again
Yan Shaozhe was numb.
Ning Tian Wu Feng was a powerful figure in the Outer Court, and he knew the two of them better than anyone.
But who could tell him how Ning Tian and Wu Feng had become unrecognizable after just one month of vacation?
Putting aside the significance of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which hasn't appeared in ten thousand years, Wu Feng's Red Dragon Reverse Dragon Transformation alone is astonishing enough.
Shrek Academy has a considerable number of Dragon Clan Martial Soul Master, but looking at both the inner and outer academies, only Bei Bei possesses a True Dragon Martial Soul.
The gap between a sub-dragon and a true dragon is even more difficult to overcome than the gap between a peak Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo.
If Ning Tian, who previously possessed the Red Dragon Martial Soul, could only be considered a genius with exceptional talent, then she is now undoubtedly a super genius who ranks among the top tier across the entire continent.
After regaining his senses, Yan Shaozhe put down his teacup and said in a surprised tone:
"In just one month, seven treasures have become nine treasures, and a dragon has become a true dragon. Has your Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect gone to rob the Heavenly Soul Empire's treasury?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Feng was speechless.
"Dean Yan, in some ways, the Heavenly Soul Empire's treasury is not even comparable to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Treasure Vault."
"And it seems you don't even know that our Sect Master has broken through to the Titled Douluo level, nor do you know about the Shrek Academy's information channels..."
"Feng Mei!" Ning Tian interrupted Wu Feng with a light scolding.
Wu Feng shrank back, not daring to say anything more.
But the information she revealed was enough to make Yan Shaozhe and Du Weilun uneasy.
"Sect Master Ning has broken through to the Titled Douluo?"
Yan Shaozhe and Du Weilun exchanged bewildered glances.
If Ning Tian and Wu Feng's transformations were already astonishing enough, then Ning Yunxiu's breakthrough was truly mind-blowing.
Ning Yunxiu's breakthrough signifies far too much.
Putting aside the fact that the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect suddenly gained the ability to simultaneously produce two Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master and True Dragon Martial Soul Master, the improvement that Ning Yunxiu's breakthrough brought to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect alone is something that no force on the continent can ignore.
Yan Shaozhe's mind was filled with a jumble of thoughts and ideas.
He couldn't understand how the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could accomplish all this so quietly in such a short time.
But as a renowned Super Douluo and one of the continent's foremost scholars, he quickly formed a guess in his mind.
"Sect Master Ning's breakthrough is a great event. On behalf of the Sea God Pavilion, I Sect Master Ning and your sect."
"Furthermore, I have a guess that I'd like Ning Tian to confirm: Your sect's ability to hold such a grand event... could it be that you've found the Immortal-Grade Medicinal Herb, the Aromatic Silk Beauty, which the Nine-Colored Goddess once consumed?"
Jiang Yu and Ning Tian were not surprised at all that Yan Shaozhe could think of this.
Throughout the past ten thousand years of history, the only celestial being capable of helping the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda transform was the Aromatic Silk Beauty.
In the years before the appearance of the Aromatic Silk Beauty, the high-ranking members of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect tried countless kinds of rare and precious materials, but in the end, not only did the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda not appear, but even the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda never appeared even once.
Ning Tian really didn't know how to answer this, so she turned her gaze to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu pondered for a moment, then chuckled softly:
"Dean Yan is very knowledgeable and insightful; we admire him."
"I see, I see."
Yan Shaozhe took a deep breath, having gotten the answer he wanted. He didn't ask any further questions, but instead changed the subject:
"I've approved Ning Tian and Wu Feng's applications to apply for Sixth Grade. And you, don't tell me you're planning to apply to the Inner Court..."
Jiang Yu raised an eyebrow. "That's exactly what I was thinking."
Yan Shaozhe's lips twitched, and he said helplessly, "Your cultivation level has reached the minimum standard for entering the Inner Court, but you're only eleven years old, which is too young. Listen to me, the Inner Court is completely different from the Outer Court. The implicit competitive pressure there is unimaginable to you. I suggest you also go to the Sixth Grade for a year of training, and then the three of you can enter the Inner Court together next year."
Yan Shaozhe's suggestion was indeed rational and prudent, but he overlooked one point.
Jiang Yu from the Fourth Ring Road was already exceptionally good in the Sixth Grade of the Outer Court. If it were Jiang Yu the Fifth Ring Road, calling it a "dimensional reduction attack" would be giving those Sixth Grade students too much credit.
Therefore, Jiang Yu shook his head and then said:
"Dean Yan, thank you for your kindness, but I still need to go into the Inner Court."
"You stubborn brat, why are you so headstrong? Let me explain in more detail..."
Yan Shaozhe abruptly stopped mid-sentence.
Because he and Du Weilun clearly saw the five Spirit Ring rising from Jiang Yu's feet.
Purple, purple, black, black, black.
Five Spirit Ring signify Soul King cultivation level.
Yan Shaozhe and Du Weilun both felt a sense of absurdity.
An eleven-year-old Five-Ring Soul King?! Is this even human?!
Even if it's Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that has transformed and started cultivating again, its cultivation speed shouldn't be this abnormal!
Moreover, for some inexplicable reason, Yan Shaozhe felt a strong sense of oppression from Jiang Yu's Fifth Spirit Ring, whose color was much deeper than the other two Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
The feeling was like facing a surging sea of thunder.
Wait a minute, something still seems off.
Yan Shaozhe frowned and scanned Jiang Yu's entire body, then exclaimed in shock:
"Your Martial Soul..."
Jiang Yu smiled and nodded, "It's the Space-Time Dragon. It recently made some progress and successfully merged its Twin Martial Souls into one."
Yan Shaozhe:...
"Well... congratulations!"
Yan Shaozhe could no longer sit still.
If Jiang Yu, could barely stay in the Outer Court, then Jiang Yu, with his fifth-ring cultivation and the Space-Time Dragon Martial Soul, had to enter the Inner Court no matter what.
Having been shocked so many times in one day, Yan Shaozhe felt that his worldview was at risk of collapsing.
He stood up and then said to Du Weilun:
"Viren, you take Ning and Wu to the Sixth Grade assessment. I'll personally take Jiang to find Lexuan."
"Yes, Dean." Du Weilun quickly stood up and respectfully replied.
Du Weilun is not responsible for the matter of Outer Court students being admitted to Inner Court; instead, the Outer Court's Martial Soul Department dean and Inner Court's Grandmaster Zhang Lexuan jointly conduct the assessment and selection.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu smiled at Ning Tian and the other two women, then said softly:
"Once I'm settled in the Inner Court, we'll go to Shrek City for a big meal."
Ning Tian and the other nodded, and after watching Jiang Yu and Yan Shaozhe leave, they followed Du Weilun away.
Meanwhile, Yan Shaozhe, who had taken Jiang Yu away, was becoming increasingly alarmed.
He wanted to test Jiang Yu's strength after the Martial Soul Fusion, so he didn't fly with Jiang Yu but walked instead.
With his Super Douluo level strength, each step he took covered at least tens of meters, which was no different from teleportation in the eyes of ordinary four- or five-ring Soul Master. But Jiang Yu, from beginning to end, no matter how fast or slow he was, always kept a distance of about one meter behind him, looking as leisurely as if he were taking a stroll.
Before long, the two arrived at the shimmering Sea God Lake.
Here, Jiang Yu immediately spotted a familiar face.
Her striking red dress, flowing black hair, and ethereal beauty reflected in the lake and sky made her seem like a fairy.
Who else could it be but Zhang Lexuan?
