That's Fucking Incest!

"A puny Heaven Dou Royal Academy dared to act as if it ruled the heavens."

"I'll tell Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone when we get back."

"I'll have them teach those arrogant bastards a lesson."

Ning Rongrong planned to use her family's clout to put pressure on Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"Exactly!"

"We can't let them off that easily."

Xiao Wu planted her hands on her hips and gave the idea an approving thumbs-up.

Zhu Zhuqing sat in a corner of the room. No one knew what she was thinking.

"Dean Liu Erlong is right."

"They must pay for what they did."

"Everyone, train hard."

"The next time we meet Lin Ye, we have to beat him."

Tang San stepped forward.

He held out his hand...

Dai Mubai was the first to place his hand on top, followed by Ma Hongjun, Oscar...

At last, all seven gathered around.

Yu Xiaogang nodded in satisfaction at the sight, unable to contain his delight.

He could see the flames of vengeance burning in their hearts.

"That's the spirit!"

"Just what I'd expect from students taught by Boss Fu."

"The academy Soul Fighting Tournament in six months will be your best chance."

At those words, confusion appeared on the faces of the Shrek students.

None of them had heard of the academy Soul Fighting Tournament before.

Yu Xiaogang stepped forward and said with an air of authority, "The Heaven Dou Empire hosts the academy Soul Fighting Tournament. The competing teams come from Soul Master Academies near Heaven Dou City."

Liu Erlong picked up where he left off. "Xiaogang is right. The tournament's slogan is 'exchange between academies,' but behind the scenes, everyone is vying to outdo each other. They want good results so they can recruit more outstanding students next year."

Their eyes met.

Yu Xiaogang hurriedly looked away.

Liu Erlong was the woman he had once loved—and his cousin.

"Six months from now..."

The flames of vengeance that had just flared up among the group were half-extinguished in an instant.

They had only six months.

Could they really defeat Lin Ye at the academy Soul Fighting Tournament?

"Ahem—"

"Let me say a few words."

With an impassioned speech, Flender finally managed to keep the group's flames of vengeance alive.

Afterward, Yu Xiaogang was burning with rage.

He demanded of Flender, "Did you know all along that Liu Erlong was here?"

"I did."

"And you still brought me here? What the hell were you thinking?"

"You were the one who insisted we go to Heaven Dou Royal Academy. When I objected, you called me selfish and said I cared only about myself, not the students' futures."

Flender still had a bellyful of anger.

If he had not listened to Yu Xiaogang's advice, he would never have suffered that humiliation at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

After a long pause, Yu Xiaogang managed to say, "You still shouldn't have brought me here."

The Golden Iron Triangle had broken up years ago because of his relationship with Liu Erlong.

Because of that, he had hidden himself away in Nuoding City.

If he had not met Tang San, he might have grown old and died there.

"For the sake of these outstanding students, we have to make sacrifices."

"Those were your words!"

This time, Yu Xiaogang had no answer at all.

A moment later, Flender patted Yu Xiaogang on the shoulder. "Since fate has brought you two together again, you should pick up where you left off."

"She's my cousin!" Yu Xiaogang snapped. "If we get together, that's fucking incest."

"Then let it be incest!"

"You've already left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Why do you still care about that?"

"Stop fucking pretending."

"We spent so much time together back then. Are you telling me you never noticed her connection to the Blue Tyrant family?"

"You both knew perfectly well and pretended you didn't."

"Then, when Liu Erlong's father came looking for you, you dressed yourself up as an innocent man who had just woken from a dream."

Flender tore Yu Xiaogang's disguise away on the spot.

Their argument lasted deep into the night and ended without a resolution.

Meanwhile, at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"After deliberating through the night, the Education Committee has decided..."

"The Imperial Fighting Team will head deep into the Star Dou Great Forest for a month of wilderness training."

"During this training, your teachers will provide no assistance. You must solve every problem you encounter yourselves."

At those words, everyone grew excited.

Training in the Star Dou Great Forest meant they could hunt Soul Beasts.

The sinew, bone, flesh, and blood harvested from Soul Beasts were all highly nourishing.

Teacher Qin Ming had said they would receive no help, but if they truly ran into danger, the teachers watching from the shadows would never stand idly by.

They just had to charge in!

"There's another important task on this trip."

"You need to find a fourth Soul Ring for Ye Lingling."

Everyone turned to Ye Lingling at once.

They all knew that after taking an Immortal-Grade Herb, Ye Lingling's cultivation had advanced to Soul Ancestor.

Lin Ye was the one who had made it happen.

"I'm jealous."

"Lingling's a Soul Ancestor now too."

"Behind every successful woman is a man giving her his full support."

Yu Feng joked, "Captain, I'm actually a woman too. How about giving me an Immortal Herb?"

"Ahem—"

"If the captain's willing..."

"I, Osler, could get an enema too."

Lin Ye could not listen to another word. "What the hell are you talking about? That's fucking disgusting."

What a shameless bunch!

The next day, the Imperial Fighting Team had barely entered the Star Dou Great Forest when they encountered a Seven-Colored Elk.

Judging by its size, it was around nine thousand years old.

Ye Lingling was overjoyed.

The Seven-Colored Elk's antlers were a top-tier medicinal ingredient for healing, and its blood could speed up wound recovery.

Because of those traits, the Seven-Colored Elk's Soul Ring was a top-tier choice for Nine Heart Begonia Soul Masters. Absorbing it could greatly boost their healing power.

"Captain."

"Please."

Ye Lingling could hardly contain her excitement.

Their analysis had shown...

After consuming the Eight-Petal Immortal Orchid, she could already absorb a Soul Ring beyond her level—one eight thousand years old.

If her mental strength could withstand Soul Shock, even absorbing a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring would be within her reach.

The next instant, Soul Power surged through Lin Ye.

An Ice Spike formed between his palms and shot out like lightning.

With his mind locked onto the Seven-Colored Elk, it had nowhere to dodge.

Sshk—

The Ice Spike pierced straight through the Seven-Colored Elk's body.

After killing a thirty-thousand-year-old Ice Rock Python in the Frozen Forest, dealing with a Soul Beast of this level was as easy as snatching it up in his hand.

Now the Seven-Colored Elk lay on the ground, twitching, with only a thread of life left.

"Tsk, tsk—"

"The captain's a monster."

"He took down an eight-thousand-year-old Soul Beast from over fifty meters away, without even using a Soul Skill."

"Captain."

"How are we supposed to have any fun when you do that?"

"Next time we run into a Soul Beast, you should give us a chance to go first."

The words had barely left his mouth when another group appeared in the forest.

The fighting spirit written across their faces made it clear they had come for them.
