In the stands of the Soul Fighting Zone, the students saw Zhou Yi's true face, usually hidden beneath her mask, and broke into discussion. Before long, the whole Soul Fighting Zone had grown much noisier.

"That's what that perverted old hag really looks like? She's clearly pretty, so why does she wear such an ugly mask and dress herself up as an old woman?"

"Hmph, with a face like that, could she still lecture us? No matter how viciously she spoke, with that face, we'd just think she was acting cute."

"Could she have used that face to seduce the academy's higher-ups so she could expel us without restraint? What an exceptionally sinister and cunning woman!"

"No, you've got it wrong. Teacher Zhou Yi is beautiful and kindhearted. How could she possibly..."

"Pah! You're the ones she favors, so of course you have nothing to fear. Why don't you say that for the people she expelled over a single mistake?"

"It must have been that woman! She sold her beauty to the academy's higher-ups so she could expel students as she pleased and satisfy her perverted, twisted desires, I tell ya!"

Although the students Zhou Yi had successfully trained, along with some people obsessed with looks, tried to speak for her, public opinion as a whole soon turned sharply against her. Some outrageous, salacious rumors had even begun to surface.

Even though some of the teachers present tried to put an immediate stop to it, they couldn't keep the rumors from spreading.

As a Soul Emperor, Zhou Yi naturally heard some of the rumors, and they made her already unstable state of mind crumble even further.

She had never imagined that a battle which should have been a one-sided thrashing would end up like this.

The disguise she had painstakingly maintained for years had been torn to shreds, and her reputation had plummeted, plunging straight toward a terrifying abyss.

What Zhou Yi couldn't refute, moreover, was that some of those rumors were true!

It was just that the person she had "sold her beauty" to wasn't one of the Martial Soul Department's higher-ups, but Fan Yu of the Soul Tool Department.

Those who could join Shrek Academy's Martial Soul Department were basically Soul Masters with considerable talent, powerful figures destined to become Titled Douluo in the future.

Such powerful figures wouldn't take a fancy to a woman like Zhou Yi, who wasn't very strong, whose Martial Soul wasn't good enough, and who had nothing but a pretty face.

Only an "oddball" like Fan Yu, who cultivated with Soul Tools, wouldn't care much about those things. Zhou Yi had easily wrapped him around her finger and ultimately succeeded in winning him over.

Mu Jin had never stood a chance from the start. Neither her hardware nor her software measured up to Zhou Yi's, so becoming the losing dog in the end had been inevitable.

And as everyone knew, lies didn't hurt people; the truth was the sharp blade.

Now Zhou Yi was on the verge of becoming a Red Dragon that had completely lost its reason. All she could think about was gutting Bai Jingtian, the root of all evil, tearing him to pieces, and washing away her shame with his blood!

"Sixth Soul Skill! Dragon's..."

In her rage, Zhou Yi couldn't even shout the full name of her Soul Skill, but that wouldn't affect its effects.

As red dragon scales began to cover Zhou Yi's head as well, the last of her reason gradually began to fade, replaced by an immense increase in power.

"A berserker-type skill? It seems Zhou Yi really never learns. All she knows is how to rely on brute force, but she can't touch me at all that way.

"But her berserker skill will most likely have some additional effects, and her increase in strength could very well be even more terrifying..."

Bai Jingtian kept his gaze fixed on Zhou Yi as she grew ever stronger, carefully considering how to deal with her.

Not only was there a gap of more than thirty levels between their Soul Power Levels, but with the boost from Zhou Yi's sixth Soul Skill, a certain gap would also open between their physical capabilities.

But that didn't mean Bai Jingtian had no way to deal with her.

While Zhou Yi was still using other Soul Skills to strengthen herself, Bai Jingtian suddenly moved. Instead of putting distance between them, he charged straight at her!

"Jingtian, have you gone mad? Even I wouldn't dare face Zhou Yi head-on in that state!"

At the edge of the arena, Mu Jin looked anxiously at Bai Jingtian, her clenched palms already slick with nervous sweat.

"Roar!!" Seeing Bai Jingtian charge at her of his own accord, Zhou Yi felt utterly belittled and let out a furious roar.

A flea that only knew how to dodge and didn't dare fight head-on actually dared get in her face and attack?

A stream of dragon breath spewed from her mouth, its searing heat threatening to swallow Bai Jingtian whole.

But Bai Jingtian simply shifted aside and easily evaded her breath. He raised a hand, extending two fingers toward Zhou Yi's eyes.

"Level twenty-nine Soul Power, Thunder Electric Shock!"

Two streams of electricity shot from Bai Jingtian's fingertips, heading straight for Zhou Yi's eyes.

Protected by Zhou Yi's body-shielding Soul Power, her eyes weren't destroyed outright, but the current still blinded her temporarily, leaving her unable to see for a short time.

"Awooo!!!!!"

A burst of agony shot through her eyes, and Zhou Yi immediately let out a wail. Soul Power erupted from her body once again, threatening to devour Bai Jingtian whole.

Instead, Bai Jingtian used the attack of Zhou Yi's dragon claws to propel himself into the air. He stared intently at her, then revealed a smug smile.

"Keh heh heh, you must be feeling pretty anxious, right?

"Then let me help you keep enjoying yourself!

"Level twenty-nine Soul Power, Electric Missile!"

A tremendous number of Electric Missiles appeared around Bai Jingtian, then poured down like raindrops, concentrated on Zhou Yi's head.

Zhou Yi raised both arms to block, but the Electric Missiles changed course several times in midair, dodging her pair of dragon claws and raining down on her head.

Although her head was still covered in dragon scales, it was clear that both her head and her chest and abdomen were weak points in her defenses.

Zhou Yi's current form and posture didn't allow her to take extreme measures to protect her head. On top of that, directly attacking her head with Electric Movement attacks could better interfere with her control over her own body. Thus, Bai Jingtian adjusted his position and landing point while concentrating his attacks on her head.

"Something's wrong. Zhou Yi is a Soul Emperor, and her sixth Soul Skill has given her a terrifying boost. By all rights, there's no way an attack like this from Bai Jingtian, a Quasi-Soul Elder, could break through her defenses!

"There's something strange about Bai Jingtian's attacks!"

Seeing Zhou Yi's sorry state, her head plastered with Bai Jingtian's Electric Missiles, Du Weilun immediately noticed what he had overlooked and quietly entered his Martial Soul Possession state.

He had to save such a gifted student from Zhou Yi's clutches!
