The black claws effortlessly shredded the thunder dragon into pieces! By the time Yu Tianheng reacted, the black claws had already reached him!
"I surrender!"
Cold sweat instantly soaked Yu Tianheng's back as he raised both hands in surrender.
He looked at the figure still concealed beneath the white robe before him and swallowed hard.
Too terrifying...
If he were not a Soul Ancestor now, he would probably have been like his six teammates—unable to move after being shaken by the white-robed woman's killing intent!
Could she be an expert above the Soul Emperor rank?
No!
Yu Tianheng immediately dismissed the thought, because he could clearly sense that the white-robed woman's true strength was only that of a Soul Elder! But...
A Soul Elder! On her own, she had nearly defeated their entire Heaven Dou Royal Academy team!
Was something like this even possible on the Douluo Continent?
Yu Tianheng was beginning to wonder whether he was dreaming.
Fortunately, seeing that he had surrendered, Bing Jiu did not press him any further. With a wave of her hand, she withdrew the killing aura around her, turned, and stepped off the arena without saying another word.
Dugu Yan and the others instantly felt as though a tremendous burden had been lifted.
Ye Lingling clutched her head, looking badly frightened. "What... what just happened?"
Dugu Yan felt a wave of nausea and was drenched in sweat. That killing aura had been like needles, piercing deep into her flesh and making her very organs tremble.
Yet even so, she had been unable to utter a single word!
"Oh, heavens. Tianheng, what kind of monster were you fighting just now?"
"Who knows? We really kicked an iron plate this time."
Dugu Yan looked around, but she could not find Bing Jiu anywhere. A strange feeling immediately rose within her!
That girl had smashed up their place and just left! She did not even bother to say goodbye. How rude!
Just as she was fuming, a student brought her some good news.
The moment Dugu Yan heard it, her face lit up with excitement. "My grandfather actually came to the academy!"
Academy Hall
Inside the hall, Prince Xue Xing looked at the Shrek Academy group before him, his gaze growing increasingly dark.
He raised his head and looked at the academy's headmaster, Meng Shenji. "Chief Meng Shenji, can any stray cat or dog enter Heaven Dou Royal Academy now?"
"Prince Xue Xing, this..."
"No need to explain, Chief Meng Shenji. As an imperial prince, I have direct authority over this place, and I absolutely will not allow arrogant, overbearing people to enter!"
"You..."
Tang San clenched his fists in anger.
A mere imperial prince! He actually dared to humiliate him like this by relying on his power!
Now, you have earned the right to die!
As he thought this, the poisoned hidden weapons in Tang San's hand were already poised to strike!
"Hmph!"
Seeing the Shrek Academy group at a loss, Xue Beng happily pulled a face at them. "Oh? Why aren't you acting so arrogant now? Come on, shout! Show me how arrogant you can be, you country bumpkins!"
"You bastard! Are you asking for another beating?"
Unable to restrain his fiery temper, Dai Mubai rushed forward to beat Xue Beng senseless. But halfway there, the green-robed old man behind Xue Beng glanced at him.
Dai Mubai's entire body jolted, and he fell straight to the floor!
"What?!"
Everyone was shocked by the sight!
Cold sweat streamed down Flender's and Yu Xiaogang's faces. "That strength... he is undoubtedly a Titled Douluo!"
Tang San was so frightened that he hurriedly put away his hidden weapons, unable to help feeling relieved that he had not acted just now.
Ah... I was too rash just now. Offending a Titled Douluo just to save Dai Mubai would have been far too unwise.
"Attack together."
Dugu Bo stepped forward and raised a hand. Poisonous mist immediately spread from his body.
Under the influence of that poison, the plants and insects in the hall rapidly withered away, filling everyone present with dread.
Dugu Bo calmly watched everything before him. Just as he was about to do something more, a soft female voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
"Disperse."
Ding—
The voice was not loud, yet it seemed to possess some strange quality.
The instant Dugu Bo heard it, his body visibly stiffened. He felt something seep into his body, and in the next moment—
The poisonous mist around him actually scattered out of control!
"What is going on?! My poison!"
Dugu Bo's face filled with disbelief as he abruptly turned around.
Tap, tap, tap—
Crisp footsteps sounded as Bing Jiu, dressed in white, entered the hall with Tuoba Xi.
Dugu Bo looked at her, his eyes growing sharper. In a flash, he blocked Bing Jiu's path.
"You're the one who broke my poison?"
"Insolence!"
"Don't move."
Bing Jiu stopped Tuoba Xi with one hand. She raised her head and looked up at Dugu Bo's slightly aged face, her blood-red eyes devoid of any emotion.
As Dugu Bo looked into those eyes, ripples stirred within his heart as well.
As a Titled Douluo, practically no junior dared to meet his gaze. Even if there were any, their eyes could never be like these blood-red pupils!
Fearless!
"A Titled Douluo? Hmph!"
Bing Jiu gave a soft laugh and walked straight past Dugu Bo. "You're nothing more than someone who played with poison until you nearly poisoned yourself to death."
Dugu Bo:!!!
How could this little girl know?!
At the same time, as her words fell, everyone in the hall, including the people from Shrek Academy, stared at her in astonishment.
"This little girl..."
She... actually dared to provoke a Titled Douluo in public!
The three Royal Academy education committee members all swallowed hard.
For a moment, they felt that this little girl's presence was even stronger than Dugu Bo's!
There was no other reason—Bing Jiu's bearing and manner of speech were completely those of someone in a superior position! And such people were absolutely not ones they could afford to offend.
"Junior, stop right there."
Dugu Bo's body shook, and poisonous mist spread out once more. The pressure of a Titled Douluo once again blanketed the entire hall!
"Dugu Bo, how dare you!"
Tuoba Xi immediately rushed forward and blocked him firmly. "Do you know who she is?! You dare show killing intent before her! Do you not want to live anymore?"
"Hmph! I do not care who she is! She provoked me just now. Do you think the dignity of a Titled Douluo is made of paper? She must come with me, and you cannot stop me!"
Although doing this was far too extreme and absurd! But for the sake of his granddaughter, he had no choice!
No matter what, this little girl could see that his body was about to be eroded by poison. She must have studied this matter before!
He could only gamble on this!
As he spoke, Dugu Bo struck Tuoba Xi in the chest with his palm, forcing him back, then reached out toward Bing Jiu with one hand.
Bing Jiu glanced back at him indifferently. There was still not the slightest trace of fear in her blood-red eyes.
She straightened her clothes, parted her crimson lips, and said, "You, aren't you going to make a move?"
