A Dragon Has a Reverse Scale; Touch It and Die
Zhou Hai followed behind Elder Shi Tianxiong. When he saw the dozen or so students in the classroom whose auras had surged and who seemed to have undergone a complete transformation, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
[This... how is this possible?!]
He was horrified and turned his gaze to the figure in blue robes who was worshipped by all the students with an almost fanatical look!
[It's unbelievable... it really was him?!]
An indescribable, extreme regret, like a venomous snake, instantly devoured his heart!
[I... I actually... push away such a great figure with my own hands?!]
On the main seat, Shi Tianxiong's face had long since lost its previous gloom.
He looked at Dongfang Yueming, and for the first time, his sharp, hawk-like eyes revealed an expression of "appreciation"!
"Hahaha! Excellent! Excellent!" He clapped his hands and laughed, his voice booming like a bell. "Your Excellency is so young, yet you possess such astonishing teaching abilities! Truly... you have broadened our horizons!"
He paused, then asked tentatively with a curious tone, "May I ask what grade of Natal Spirit Seal you have condensed? How could it possess such the ability to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary?"
Beside him, his grandson Shi Hao could no longer contain his joy and excitement!
[That's wonderful! If only I could have this person personally teach me...]
He stepped forward and, in a condescending tone, said to Dongfang Yueming, "Hey! Kid! My grandfather has taken a liking to you! What are you standing there for? Come over here and pay your respects to my grandfather! From now on, you're mine!"
"Hao'er, don't be rude." Shi Tianxiong said in a feigned reprimand, then turned his gaze to Dongfang Yueming, his face bearing an undeniable air of authority.
"Master of the Dongfang, you've seen it too. A wise bird chooses a good tree to perch on."
"Now, make your decision."
Upon seeing this, Vice Dean Lin Bo'an's face instantly turned extremely ugly!
His heart was filled with endless frustration and powerlessness!
However, faced with Shi Tianxiong's determined recruitment, Dongfang Yueming simply asked calmly:
Where is Shi Qing?
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao was taken aback at first, then a playful smile appeared on his face, "Oh? You know that bitch too?"
A hint of understanding flashed in Shi Tianxiong's eyes. But he didn't take it to heart at all.
She was just a female disciple; once she died, that was that.
"Your Excellency," his voice turned slightly colder, "A wise person should know how to choose."
Some unimportant people and things are best forgotten.
Dongfang Yueming remained expressionless. "I'm asking, where is she!"
"Master Dongfang!" Lin Bo'an, seeing this, was greatly alarmed and quickly advised, "Don't act rashly!"
"I wasn't acting impulsively."
Dongfang Yueming shook his head.
He simply raised his head, his calm gaze falling on Shi Tianxiong.
"Boom--!"
Shi Tianxiong could no longer contain his anger!
A terrifying pressure, far Innate that of Foundation Establishment, descended with a deafening roar!
He slowly rose from the ground, hovering high above, looking down at the crowd below, who looked like ants!
At this moment, the entire world seemed to submit beneath his feet!
"Ah!"
"The power of Foundation Establishment!"
All the students present, including Wu Qing, were forced to their knees with a thud under this oppressive force. Their faces were deathly pale, and they couldn't even muster the slightest thought of resistance!
Only Lin Bo'an is still struggling to hold on, but he is also on the verge of collapse!
"Hahaha!" Shi Hao looked at this scene with a morbid sense of satisfaction and arrogance on his face!
He pointed at the only figure still standing upright, and grinned maliciously, saying, "Kid! Do you see that?! This is Foundation Establishment! This is my grandfather's strength!"
"Now, do you still dare to say 'no'?!"
However, the next moment, Dongfang Yueming simply pointed a finger at the arrogant figure in mid-air.
The Great Five Elements Annihilation Divine Light!
Five colors of runes (green-wood, red-fire, yellow-earth, white-gold, black-water) flowed slowly in a generating cycle. Finally, they collapsed into a... abyssal black hole smaller than the tip of a needle!
"Laugh--!"
A jet-black ray flashed past.
There was no earth-shattering noise.
There was only one sound, a soft sound like cloth being torn.
In mid-air, the expression on Shi Tianxiong's face, which was full of majesty and disdain, froze completely.
A tiny, bloody hole silently appeared between his eyebrows.
The light in his eyes quickly dimmed.
Immediately afterwards, his Vitality body, like a kite with a broken string, fell helplessly from mid-air.
"Bang."
Shi Tianxiong, a Foundation Establishment expert and the Grand Elder of the Dragon Firmament Academy, is dead.
The entire venue was deathly silent.
Everyone stared blankly at the scene, their brains completely losing the ability to think.
Zhou Hai's face, which had been filled with remorse, was now blank...
Wu Qing, as if he had seen a ghost, opened his mouth wide, unable to utter a single word.
Lin Bo'an's cloudy old eyes widened in disbelief and horror, which were beyond words!
[Foundation Establishment...]
[That's... a genuine Foundation Establishment expert!]
[Just like that... he was... killed with a single finger?!]
As Shi Hao looked at the familiar, cold corpse, his arrogance and smugness were instantly replaced by endless fear!
"No... impossible!"
He screamed hysterically, his body trembling like a leaf!
He pointed at Dongfang Yueming, his voice a mixture of bravado and fear, and roared, "You... you're finished! You're dead! My... my Dragon Firmament Academy is... is an affiliate of the Heavenly Star Sect! You killed my grandfather, and the Heavenly Star Sect will never let you get away with this!"
"Heavenly Star Sect?"
Dongfang Yueming looked at Shi Hao, who was still roaring hysterically, and a cold impatience flashed in her eyes.
He didn't waste any more words.
He simply threw a punch.
"Bang!"
Shi Hao's body, along with his roar filled with fear and resentment, instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist and dissipated into the air.
The entire venue fell completely silent.
Only the sound of the wind remained, weeping.
After a long while, Vice Dean Lin Bo'an finally recovered from the overwhelming shock.
He glanced at the two cold corpses, then at the young man who seemed to have casually swatted two flies, his eyes filled with endless complexity and awe.
He took a deep breath and, in an unprecedentedly serious tone, addressed the terrified professors and students present, saying in a deep voice:
"No one is to be informed of what happened today!"
"Everyone stay where you are! No one is allowed to leave without my order!"
After saying that, he slowly walked up to Dongfang Yueming.
This time, he adopted an extremely humble attitude.
He faced the Dongfang Yueming east and solemnly performed a deep bow.
"This old man... Lin Bo'an pays his respects to... Senior!"
"Where are the ruins?" Dongfang Yueming asked calmly.
"Senior... please follow me!" Lin Bo'an hurriedly led the way, his posture extremely humble.
Dongfang Yueming nodded, and with a casual wave of his hand, he absorbed the storage rings left behind by Shi Tianxiong and his grandson after their deaths into his hand. Only then did he leisurely follow after them.
The two of them slowly walked out of everyone's sight.
Until those two figures completely disappeared.
Inside the classroom, a collective gasp finally filled the air!
Qu Yutang watched that departing figure, she felt as if her heart was about to leap out of her throat!
[He... he actually killed even Foundation Establishment expert?!]
On the way, Lin Bo'an finally couldn't hold back his worries and spoke up to persuade him:
"Senior, that ' Nine Nether Secret Realm ' is extremely dangerous! It is said that the Yin energy within is dense, and countless vengeful spirits dwell there. Even a true Foundation Establishment expert might not be able to gain any advantage if they venture deep inside."
"Please, senior, think it over!"
Dongfang Yueming did not answer him.
He simply probed his divine sense into the two storage rings he had just acquired.
[Poor wretch.]
He shook his head inwardly.
The two of them together only had a little over a thousand low-grade spirit stones in their storage rings.
The only thing of any value was two jade slips containing second-tier spiritual techniques.
"Does Dragon Firmament Academy have any methods for Foundation Establishment?" Dongfang Yueming asked casually.
"This..." Lin Bo'an's mind raced.
Dragon Firmament Academy does indeed possess a top-tier Foundation Establishment technique called "Dragon-Elephant Suppresses Hell Art," but what outsiders don't know is that its cultivation is extremely difficult, and the slightest mistake can easily lead to the body exploding.
It wouldn't hurt to give it to them, since that method was just something a senior casually threw away, and then happened to be picked up by the former dean of the Dragon Firmament Academy.
But the problem now is, what if the other party makes a mistake in their cultivation?
Thinking of this, Lin Bo'an's thoughts suddenly came to an abrupt halt!
His cloudy old eyes suddenly widened!
etc...
The method of Foundation Establishment?!
The other party is asking about the methods for Foundation Establishment!
A terrifying, insane, yet seemingly the only plausible guess surged into his mind!
Lin Bo'an suddenly stopped in his tracks!
He slowly turned around, looking at the calm young man before him with an expression as if he were looking at a monster. His voice was dry and hoarse from extreme shock!
"Senior... you... you wouldn't...?"
"Not even at the Foundation Establishment stage yet?!"
Although he had already suspected it.
But just as he was about to utter the thought, he still felt a wave of dizziness!
With the Innate Realm...
One finger, and a Foundation Establishment is killed?!
This... this...
This was completely beyond anything he had ever known in his entire life!
