Douluo: Dragon King's Star Devouring Wings

Chapter 699 There's a Lion Hidden in Your Eyes
Although life at Donghai Academy was busy, Tang Wulin thoroughly enjoyed it.

Dean Yu Zheng kept his promise. Class Zero had excellent resources. As the only intermediate college in a large city, he was confident that once resources were allocated to it, it would definitely be stronger than most well-known colleges.

Aside from the initial few days when things needed to adjust, things quickly got on track.

In short, Wu Changkong and Long Bing take turns giving them theoretical lectures in the morning, while the afternoons focus on practical skills and physical exercise.

Every afternoon after having dinner with his friends, Tang Wulin would come to the playground to practice for a while.

However, his true intentions were not what they seemed. In this way, he would vehemently oppose any attempt by Xie Xie or Jia Lin to come along during this period.

Okay, let's not interfere with his chance encounter with the senior.

However, after his chance encounter with his senior, Tang Wulin will first take a shower and then go to find Qian Gu Huang Yu and Jia Lin to study together that evening.

Saturdays are his time to go to Qian Gu Qing Feng to learn forging, while Sundays are completely free for him to do whatever he wants.

Moreover, considering their current age and physical condition, Wu Changkong and Long Bing's lessons are mainly focused on knowledge transfer. Even though they are only nine years old, they have already learned about battle armor.

Life goes on little by little in this fulfilling yet mundane daily routine.

...

evening.

Tang Wulin was very happy today. After another chance encounter with his senior on the playground, after they finished running, instead of just saying hello and leaving as usual, she invited Tang Wulin to try the snacks at the school gate together.

Although she still had to go to Qian Gu Huang Yu for evening training, she was still moved by Ouyang Zixun's initial invitation.

Between training and dating, Tang Wulin chose to have it all!

After finishing the snacks with Ouyang Zixun, he quickly ran back to the training ground designated by Qian Gu Huang Yu, arriving just in time.

“A suspicious smell.” Tang Wulin had just steadied himself when Jia Lin suddenly stepped out, a scrutinizing glint in her red pupils.

Tang Wulin felt a little uncomfortable under Jialin's gaze and said awkwardly, "Senior Sister...why...what's wrong?"

“You seem really strange right now,” Jia Lin said. “You look radiant. If you used to look like a lost kid who suddenly came to the city from the countryside…”

"So now it's a bit like enjoying the life of a vibrant college student. Although you may not seem like a big shot, there's a lion hidden in your eyes."

"Senior sister, where did you learn these words from?" Tang Wulin couldn't help but ask.

"The fantasy novel your teacher wrote, set in a youth campus, is it called something like Dragon Clan?" Gu Yuena walked out of the training room.

Tang Wulin was clearly already familiar with the sudden appearance of this pink-haired woman named Chizaki Ai, and was not surprised by it.

Since Qian Gu Huang Yu spends most of her time at Donghai Academy, Gu Yue Na couldn't stand the loneliness at night and came over directly.

Qian Gu Huang Yu then asked Yu Zheng, the dean of Donghai Academy, to open another identity card, allowing Gu Yue Na to become an employee of Donghai Academy under the identity of Qian Zao Ai.

However, after Gu Yuena arrived, as Jia Lin's guardian, she used the excuse that children need to learn to be independent as they grow up to send Jia Lin to live in the Class Zero dormitory.

She wants to dominate the eternal phoenix feathers of the night.

Therefore, she would occasionally show a smug smile when Tang Wulin came over for training at night, which would delay Gu Yuena and Qian Gu Huang Yu from doing their important business.

"Dragon race? Is it good?" Tang Wulin asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Jialin's eyes immediately lit up with stars. "It's so good! It tells the story of the hapless kid Lu Mingfei who joins the Moon Forest Academy to learn how to slay dragons!"

Chizaki Ai (Gu Yuena) curled her lip upon hearing this and said, "It's just a youth fantasy romance campus novel. Kids shouldn't read it; it will interfere with their studies."

"Why are you so critical of my book? It's so popular! My Dragon Raja is the best-selling book at newsstands near schools right now." Su Youli complained as she walked out of the room.

As she came out, she kept touching her lower back. [Seriously, Gu Yue is so careless.]

After settling down at Donghai Academy, Qian Gu Dongfeng returned to the Spirit Pagoda to take charge of the overall situation. While teaching Tang Wulin, Qian Gu Qingfeng also took his wife on trips to enjoy the scenery.

Qian Gu Huang Yu suddenly found herself with nothing to do. Perhaps because she had been staying at the academy all this time, it reminded her of her school life in her previous life.

The life I lived before is gone forever. I've never been to school in this life, so I can only try to recapture the feeling by writing about my past life's youthful romance novels.

Thus, a youth campus novel called Dragon Raja was released to great acclaim!

With its beautiful writing and heart-wrenching stories, it instantly won the hearts of many young people.

[It turns out that teenagers' aesthetic sense is pretty much the same all over the world!]

Faced with such dazzling achievements, Qian Gu Huang Yu would never admit that she had ever ordered others to do a serious publicity campaign.

The Dragon Clan almost became required reading for students, but it was stopped by Qian Gu Huang Yu in an emergency.

What Qian Gu Huang Yu didn't expect was that Gu Yue Na seemed to have a strong aversion to the dragon race.

Faced with Qian Gu Huang Yu's question, Qian Zao Ai simply rolled her eyes and said, "Let's put away those things that spread incorrect views about relationships."

Although Gu Yuena acknowledged that Qian Gu Huang Yu's writing style, which was inherited from the Qingmian Beast, was indeed quite good, she disagreed with the content of the story.

How many girls has Lu Mingfei liked before and after? There's the president of the literature club, the red-haired senior Nuonuo, the cold-faced senior Chu Zihan, and even the Arctic and Bear King Keisha.

I've only just finished writing the first book, Dawn of Fire. What will happen after that?
It is said that words are a reflection of the author's inner world, and Gu Yuena now has to question the fidelity of Qian Gu Huang Yu.

Gu Yuena looked at Qian Gu Huang Yu and complained, "I didn't ask you to remain pure for life. I'm not some kind of demon. What do you mean by liking two people after only half a book?"

"If this continues, you'll like four out of every book, six out of every one and a half, and then you'll turn into Yamata no Orochi."

"As the Silver Dragon King, I might really have to defeat you, really."

"Huh—? So that's what you care about?" Qian Gu Huang Yu asked in surprise, seeing that Gu Yue Na had started chanting the Bible. "Don't worry, how could I be that kind of person?" Qian Gu Huang Yu puffed out her full breasts and said very seriously.

“But I can tell you’re a little guilty,” Gu Yuena said.

"How...how could that be?" Qian Gu Huang Yu chuckled awkwardly.

Under the somewhat suspicious gazes of Jia Lin and Tang Wulin, Qian Gu Huang Yu finally managed to appease Gu Yue Na and then began today's lesson.

"Wu Lin, Jia Lin, you two attack me together," Qian Gu Huang Yu said calmly, glancing at the two of them.

Before Tang Wulin and Jialin could react to these words, Gu Yuena burst out laughing.

How could she not see that Qian Gu Huang Yu just wanted to find an excuse to bully the two of them and vent her dissatisfaction from earlier?
Tang Wulin was only stunned for a moment before quickly entering battle mode. Under normal circumstances, Qian Gu Huang Yu would first ask them what they had learned from their experiences that day.

Then let's give a sharp critique of Wu Changkong and Long Bing's Shrek-style teaching.

Although Tang Wulin respected his teachers Wu Changkong and Long Bing, he had to admit that in terms of Soul Master cultivation, Qian Gu Huang Yu had gone much further than the two of them.

This was clearly not the first time Tang Wulin and Jialin had teamed up to fight against the Ancient Phoenix Feather. They already had a tacit understanding. After Jialin entered the state of martial soul possession, the dragon wings on her back slammed down.

Like a bullet fired from a gun, it flew towards the Thousand-Year Phoenix Feather. As it approached the Thousand-Year Phoenix Feather, dragon claws, as red as crystal and carrying an inescapable heat, shot out from Jia Lin's fingers.

Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw!
Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw is one of the innate soul skills of the Fire Dragon King lineage. The dragon claw that pops out is not a physical dragon claw, but an extreme fire compressed to the extreme. Every swing is accompanied by an irresistible heat!
As the Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw appeared, the temperature in the entire training ground suddenly rose. Seeing that the Thousand Ancient Phoenix Feather had no reaction, Gu Yuena clicked her tongue softly.

She raised her slender, jade-like arm and casually released a barrier that covered the entire training ground.

In the past, before a battle, Qian Gu Huang Yu would set up a barrier to prevent the soul power from overflowing and destroying the training ground. Moreover, Jia Lin's ultimate fire alone was enough to ignite the entire training ground.

However, since Gu Yuena is here today, she will take care of this matter on her behalf.

Faced with Jia Lin's offensive, Qian Gu Huang Yu naturally showed no intention of dodging. He gently raised his hand and grabbed Jia Lin's wrist, preventing her dragon claws from advancing any further.

But Jialin smiled and said, "Teacher, be careful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw instantly grew longer and stabbed directly at the face of the Ancient Phoenix Feather!

The difference between the Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw and an ordinary dragon claw is that the length of an ordinary dragon claw is limited, but the Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw is essentially a soul skill. As long as the supply of soul power is continuously increased, the length of the Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw can be continuously extended.

However, Jialin's plan was about to fail, just as the elongated Crimson Fire Dragon Claw was about to touch the Ancient Phoenix Feather.

A terrifying repulsive force was suddenly released from the body of the Ancient Phoenix Feather, completely blocking the path of the Crimson Crystal Fire Dragon Claw.

At the same time, Qian Gu Huang Yu released his grip, and Jia Lin, who couldn't avoid it, was sent flying.

Originally derived from Bei Gongli's self-created soul skill, Dragon Thunder Purple Jade, the move was transformed and developed by the Thousand Ancient Phoenix Feather into a divine skill that can encompass almost any element.

This usage, which closely resembles Shinra Tensei, is simply replacing the form of lightning with repulsive force.

After being repelled by the Thousand-Year Phoenix Feather, Jia Lin did not panic. Instead, she immediately flapped her dragon wings to adjust her state in the sky.

Tang Wulin also promptly threw away his grandmother's entanglement and pulled Jialin back.

As Tang Wulin pulled Jia Lin back behind him, he used the force of their movements to throw himself directly towards the direction of the Ancient Phoenix Feather.

During the flight, Tang Wulin immediately deactivated his Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul and switched to using the Golden Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul.

Although he couldn't gain leverage in the air, Tang Wulin still swayed his body and assumed the starting stance of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique.

After the establishment of the Douluo Empire, a population census was naturally conducted, and the hidden sects were not exempt from it.

Among them, the Haotian Sect, as the sect of the former Buddha Tang, received the high-level treatment of the Angel God Qian Renxue, who personally visited the Spirit Hall with the seven great elders.

The Angel Family and the Clear Sky Sect had a very pleasant conversation and decided to put aside their past grudges. To show their sincerity, the Clear Sky Sect even offered to contribute all of its sect's unique skills and secret techniques free of charge to increase the Empire's soul skill reserves.

As the emperor, Qian Gu Huang Yu naturally enjoys unlimited power. Although Qian Ren Xue generously designated some of the Haotian Sect's unique skills as top secrets, only those who have made outstanding contributions to the empire can learn them.

However, this naturally cannot limit Qian Gu Huang Yu, because he knows that Tang Buddha's innovative ability is worrying, as evidenced by the fact that a Xuan Tian Gong book took 40,000 years to complete.

Therefore, Qian Gu Huang Yu strongly suspects that Tang San doesn't actually have anything new besides the divine skills that the Sea God passed on to him.

In order to prepare for dealing with Tang San, Qian Gu Huang Yu decided to learn about Tang San's various moves in advance.

Whether it's the Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian, the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, or the Great Sumeru Hammer, they have all been thoroughly researched and understood by Qian Gu Huang Yu over the years.

After studying the Haotian Sect's unique skills, Qian Gu Huang Yu combined them with his own family's Unyielding Staff Technique, making some improvements to the Qian Gu family's staff techniques.

Although there were no major changes to the staff techniques that could only be learned after reaching the Title Douluo level, Qian Gu Huang Yu created a new set of staff techniques for Soul Masters before reaching the Title Douluo level.

This can be seen as making up for the fact that the ancient families lacked powerful combat skills before they were titled Douluo.

And all of these were gradually taught to Tang Wulin by Qian Gu Huang Yu, which can be considered as making the best use of her.

Facing Tang Wulin's golden Haotian Hammer hurtling through the air, Qian Gu Huang Yu did not dodge at all. Instead, she raised her slender index finger and flicked... flicked the golden Haotian Hammer?!

The Thousand-Year Phoenix Feather didn't even extend its dragon claw; it merely flicked Tang Wulin's Golden Haotian Hammer with its fingernail!

Although the Thousand-Year Phoenix Feather was just flicked lightly, Tang Wulin felt as if he had been hit by a planet-destroying cannon, and was sent flying backward at a speed even faster than when he rushed over.

"The Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique is strong because each strike is stronger than the last. It's meant for building up the intensity of your continuous attacks, not for delivering a decisive blow," Qian Gu Huang Yu corrected.

[Tang Wulin is good in every way, except he likes to keep using new skills.] Qian Gu Huang Yu thought to herself helplessly.

After being thrown back, Tang Wulin did not panic. Instead, he immediately used the Blue Silver Emperor. Jialin was also prepared and grabbed the Blue Silver Emperor, pulling Tang Wulin back.
