Reborn as the Candle Dragon, I became the strongest academy guardian beast.

Principal's Office.

"What did you say? Azure Dragon Academy got first place in this dungeon, and their results far surpassed White Tiger Academy's?"

"I understand. Please rest assured, Director, I will definitely take good care of these children."

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Yuanshan looked shocked.

Just now, the director of the Education Bureau called me personally to inform me of what happened in the copy.

Qinglong Academy has won first place!

how many years?

Azure Dragon Academy has always been overshadowed by the other three academies. Whether it's dungeons, exchange matches, or martial arts tournaments, its performance can only ever be at the bottom.

For a moment, Zheng Yuanshan could hardly believe his ears.

"Lin Fan, Xu Liyue, and Chu Yunfeng, based on their performance in this dungeon, the Education Bureau's analysis indicates that all three possess Martial Soul levels of S rank or higher..."

"But how is that possible?"

"Lin Fan and Xu Liyue's martial souls are clearly..."

Zheng Yuanshan stood up and walked to the window.

Through the window, he looked at the giant black python coiled in the Azure Dragon Academy, and the boys and girls surrounding it.

"Old Su, thank you."

"The future of Azure Dragon Academy will probably depend on them."

……

White Tiger Academy.

"Snapped!"

A loud slap echoed through the empty office.

The middle-aged man in the white suit, his face ashen, slapped Shen Yifeng hard across the face.

"Useless! What promises did you make to me before you left?"

"First place is a piece of cake!"

"And the result? Azure Dragon Academy actually took first place! You've completely disgraced White Tiger Academy!"

Shen Yifeng staggered back a few steps after being slapped, half of his face swollen and a trace of blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, but he dared not raise his hand to wipe it.

"Principal, I'm sorry..."

Shen Yifeng gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice:

"I know I shouldn't make excuses, but the results from Azure Dragon Academy this time are very strange. I suspect that the martial soul of that person named Chu Yunfeng may be the legendary [Forbidden Codex]."

"If it's the Forbidden Codex, then it's nothing to fear. He used forbidden spells twice today, burning away a lot of his lifespan. He probably won't live much longer."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man frowned, then his expression softened slightly: "But how can you guarantee he won't live past the martial arts tournament in half a month?"

Shen Yifeng fell silent.

Chu Yunfeng's power was simply too great. As long as he was there, White Tiger Academy would be unable to achieve the complete and overwhelming victory they had envisioned.

Shen Yifeng suddenly raised his head, a fierce glint in his eyes: "If he can't die... then we'll help him die, won't we?"

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded: "The fact that you thought of that shows you're not completely stupid."

He took out his phone and dialed a number: "Old Mo, business's here."

"Our target this time is Chu Yunfeng, a student at Qinglong Academy."

"The task is simple, and I don't want any accidents to happen."

After hanging up the phone, the middle-aged man looked out the window at the sky, his expression cold.

Ten years ago, he went to great lengths to bring Azure Dragon Academy to its current state.

He would never give Qinglong Academy even the slightest chance to turn things around!

……

Qinglong Academy.

Chu Yunfeng gave a general account of what happened in the dungeon.

After listening, Su Chen nodded approvingly: "Very good, well done."

Although Su Chen had long expected that the three of them would easily win first place, the final result still exceeded his expectations.

The White Tiger Academy, ranked second, is not even a fraction as good as the Azure Dragon Academy!

The infamous "Forbidden Codex" is truly terrifying...

However, it's not perfect to have no martial spirit.

The Forbidden Codex, while incredibly powerful, also has very obvious flaws.

In addition to burning life force, casting forbidden spells also requires a certain amount of chanting time.

"Chu Yunfeng." Su Chen's gaze fell on the young man: "Approximately how long does it take you to activate your fastest forbidden spell?"

Chu Yunfeng thought for a moment and replied, "The fastest is the [Nine Heavens Thunder Spell], which takes about fifteen seconds to chant."

Fifteen seconds...

It may not sound like much, but it can be deadly in battle.

Once the opponent understands Chu Yunfeng's martial soul, there will be no way to give him time to chant.

After a moment's thought, Su Chen said in a deep voice, "From today onwards, you will focus your practice on the [Nine Heavens Thunder Spell], and try to gradually reduce the chanting time, the faster the better."

"I understand!" Chu Yunfeng nodded seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Chen felt two burning gazes fall directly on him.

It turned out that Lin Fan and Xu Liyue, who were standing to the side, were looking at him expectantly, clearly wanting guidance as well.

Su Chen: "..."

Alright, we have to treat everyone fairly.

"Lin Fan." Su Chen then turned to Lin Fan: "Your martial soul is a melee-type martial soul. In addition to practicing your spear skills diligently, you also need to focus on tempering your body. I will personally guide you from now on. The hardship of body tempering requires great perseverance to endure, so you need to be mentally prepared."

Lin Fan straightened his back, his voice resolute: "Don't worry, teacher, I can handle any hardship or fatigue!"

"As for Xu Liyue..." Su Chen looked at Xu Liyue one last time and said simply, "Just cultivate according to your own feelings."

"Huh?" Xu Liyue blinked, her beautiful big eyes full of doubt.

Everyone else gets guidance from the teacher, so why am I the only one without any suggestions?

A mysterious smile flickered in Su Chen's golden vertical pupils, but he didn't offer any further explanation.

As the future empress, Xu Liyue is destined to forge her own path.

Excessive interference in her life will only limit her potential.

She must venture out and learn on her own, embarking on a unique and thorny path—this is the true path that belongs to the future empress.

"That concludes today's lessons. You can all go home and rest," Su Chen said.

"yes!"

Although they said that, a fierce fighting spirit burned in the eyes of all three.

rest?

nonexistent!

Rest time is the perfect time to overtake others on curves.

If you rest when others rest, how can you surpass them?

Once we get back, we must make the most of every minute to train!

Goodbye, teacher!

After saying goodbye to Su Chen, the three of them hurried away, clearly eager to get home and get back to their competitive lives.

As he watched the three figures disappear outside the school gate, Su Chen's eyes gradually turned cold.

Fortunately, his senses are far more acute than those of humans.

Otherwise, you really wouldn't have noticed that a fly had infiltrated the school!
