Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 177 Experienced Douluo

The rising water wall collided with the dark red breath, and a cloud of mist rose up.

With its vision obstructed and losing sight of the enemy, the wyvern hovering in the sky immediately chose to increase its altitude.

However, streaks of black lightning had already locked onto the target.

Dorothy gave it her all, but only caused some minor trouble.

To shoot down a flying bipedal dragon, the attack power level must be increased by at least three times.

"The solution was absolutely correct, but unfortunately, our capabilities were insufficient!"

The instructors watching the battle sighed in amazement. The next second, a thread emanating from the mist tightly bound the torso and wings of the two-legged wyvern.

The wyvern lost its balance and plummeted from the air, crashing heavily outside the ring area.

As the fog gradually dissipated, everyone could see the enormous figure beside Dorothy.

A spider-like monster, magnified countless times in size, the size of a bull, with eight black spider legs, long white hair, a yellow and black torso, scarlet compound eyes, and ferocious mouthparts. This abyssal creature, known as the Crypt Demon, feeds on flying creatures.

The referee declared Dorothy the winner.

The wyvern that fell from the sky unfortunately fell out of the arena. Although it still had the strength to fight, it was still judged to have lost.

Last year's ranking champion Tristan was unfortunately eliminated, while Dorothy suffered a surprising defeat.

The students in the audience chanted Dorothy's name.

Yinyue, perched on Tai'an's back, pouted indignantly, "How did Xiaoqian become so amazing?"

"You're too bad!" Tai An reached back and flicked the silver-haired little imp's nose.

Silver Moon nimbly dodged: "Ugh, don't touch your nose like that, or you'll become an ugly monster."

"It's alright, even an ugly monster can use it with his head covered..."

"Xiao An, let me cover your dog's head first."

As an experienced Douluo, Tai'an calmly dealt with Yin Yue's various retaliations.

Dorothy, on her way back to the audience, was stopped by her father's servant: "What is it?"

"Your Highness Princess Dorothy, His Majesty the King wishes to meet with Young Master Taian of the Blue Rose family as soon as possible."

"It's too fast, I'm not prepared. Right now, we're just friends, not very close..."

"I'm sorry, His Majesty the King urgently needs the assistance of the Blue Rose family. A demon invasion has broken out in the Belland family's territory. The situation is currently unfavorable, with heavy casualties. Everyone needs to work together to deal with this."

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

Dorothy rubbed her forehead in frustration, the joy of victory vanishing without a trace.

Upon seeing Dorothy's return, Silvermoon had already taken over Tai'an's knees, wrapped her arms around his neck, and squinted her eyes triumphantly, silently declaring her dominance.

Dorothy sighed inwardly, "Little Anne, my father wants to see you."

Tai'an paused slightly, then asked, "When?"

"The sooner the better..."

For Dorothy's sake, Tyrion decided to go. Without hesitation, he transformed into a postman, grabbed Dorothy, and leaped into the air.

The royal palace is right next to Elm Street; it's a landmark that you can't mistake.

Dorothy felt a sudden dizziness, her legs instinctively went weak, and she closed her eyes.

In just a few breaths, after a sudden drop, I landed safely on the ground.

"Alright! Take me to see your father now."

Tai'an patted the girl's nice-feeling skirt behind her.

Dorothy's face flushed a lovely blush: "Xiao An, will you marry me?"

The air suddenly fell silent.

After thinking for a long time, Tai'an replied: "Personally, I wouldn't mind you being by my side."

Dorothy raised her delicate eyebrows at his ambiguous, scumbag-like answer, feeling both angry at his unwillingness to take responsibility and happy that it was much better than an answer like "friend."

"Marrying a princess isn't just a matter of my personal will," Tai'an quickly added.

"I know... I won't make things difficult for you, I'll find a way..." Dorothy took Tai'an's arm.

The two walked side by side toward the main gate of the palace.

Upon entering the palace's protective barrier, the guards standing on either side of the gate were dressed in uniform white inscribed suits; all sixteen were elite-level fighters. Furthermore, the leader, a captain-level figure, was required to possess combat strength at least above the previous rank.

The lineup was extremely impressive. A truly powerful individual would not waste their time guarding someone else's property, but would instead serve as a rotating protective force around the king.

"Your Highness Dorothy." A hairless and eyebrowless maidservant approached, wearing a white veil, signifying her higher status.

"I want to see my father," Dorothy stated directly, casually introducing Tyrell beside her: "He is the heir of the Blue Rose family."

"Okay, please follow me."

News of Tai'an's visit was first conveyed to the main hall of the royal palace.

Alfred, who had been looking worried, was overjoyed and gave the order to summon him.

Walking through the garden, which felt like a fairyland, the crystal-clear lake reflected the figures of people walking along its banks. The air quality was on a completely different level from the outside world.

"Sister Dorothy, who is he?!" The little girl with purplish-black hair skipped over and bumped into Taian.

"Lucy, Young Master Taian is a distinguished guest Father wants to see, don't cause trouble." Dorothy hurriedly picked up her sister.

To shake off the little tagalong, she quickened her pace.

"Your sister is quite cute!"

"No, she's not cute at all, she has a terrible personality. Not only does she bully people all the time, but she also likes to do scary things."

"They're young, they can still be educated."

"Yes, if a seed is beyond redemption, it will be disposed of directly."

"That's a bit cruel. Isn't there a better way?"

"If they can't be properly taught even after more than ten years, their character is basically set for life. If a bad seed uses the power of the Violet family, it is very likely to provoke hostility from all classes and undermine the stability of the country. The Violet family has always controlled the number of its offspring."

Tai'an, lost in thought, stepped onto the white marble staircase, which had nineteen floors in total. Each floor was half a meter high, and the spacious halls seemed less like human buildings and more like the abode of gods.

"Walking is so slow! Let me carry you up..."

Before Dorothy could refuse, Taian pulled his arm away from hers, took the initiative, and began to wrap himself around her, then lightly leaped into the air.

He landed directly on the red carpet, then flashed across hundreds of meters, quickly approaching the throne.

The guardians, realizing what was happening, rushed to stand in front of King Alfred.

The peaceful atmosphere suddenly turned tense.

Tai'an glanced indifferently at the two Saint-level experts present, then put down Dorothy, whom he had been holding hostage.

"Tai'an, heir of the Blue Rose family, pays a visit to His Majesty the King."

Alfred nodded reservedly: "Indeed, you are an excellent junior. Please do not be rude."

The two holy domain guards sheathed their weapons and retreated behind the kingdom, standing on the left and right sides respectively.

In fact, there were far more than two Saint-level experts present. This main hall alone housed no fewer than five Saint-level experts.
