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

"Well done!" Many people in the audience applauded and cheered.

This is not the first time Lu Shaoming has acted arrogantly and domineeringly at Yunlan Martial Arts School by relying on the power of the Lu family.

Finally, everyone cheered as they saw this pretentious guy get completely crushed.

Ten wins out of ten battles.

Lin Fan proved his strength with a perfect record.

The boy sheathed his spear, calmly walked off the stage, and returned to his seat.

All eyes fell on Lin Fan and Xu Liyue, and then shifted to Chu Yunfeng.

"There's still one person who hasn't played yet. Judging from the looks of it, these three students should be from the same school."

"Holy crap, does that mean... this kid is definitely not a pushover either?"

"Three matches, one match each, does that mean they're going to sweep up all the prize money today?!"

A prophecy.

After a ten-minute break, Chu Yunfeng stood up from his seat and stepped onto the arena.

After watching Lin Fan and Xu Liyue's match, he was already itching to try it himself!

An eerie silence fell over the challenger's seat.

Sure enough it was him!

The crowd looked at each other, and for a moment no one dared to go on stage.

After a long while, a martial artist with dyed yellow hair finally mustered up the courage to step onto the arena.

He looked at Chu Yunfeng and said with a wry smile, "Brother, I was actually forced up here by my friends. I know you're not sure if it's easy, so could you go easy on me later?"

Chu Yunfeng nodded and readily agreed, "Okay, I'll do my best."

"Thanks," the blond-haired martial artist said with an awkward smile.

Soon, the referee announced the start of the match.

"Nine Heavens Thunder Spell".

Chu Yunfeng murmured softly.

"Boom!"

A deep rumble of thunder echoed through the clouds.

next second.

A thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky, grazing the blond-haired martial artist's scalp with a deafening roar before crashing down onto the ground at his feet.

The ground was instantly blasted into a charred crater, with debris flying everywhere and blue-white arcs of electricity crackling and jumping at the bottom of the crater.

Coming back to his senses from the shock, the blond-haired martial artist suddenly realized that half of his hair had been burned away.

Instantly, his eyes were filled with fear as he looked at Chu Yunfeng.

Is this the power after the opponent stopped?

He couldn't even imagine the consequences if his opponent had used their full strength!

Thinking of this, the blond-haired martial artist shuddered and turned to run off the stage, yelling, "I surrender! I surrender!"

"Chu Yunfeng wins this round!"

"Please welcome the next challenger to the stage."

The referee's voice fell silent, but no one came up to the stage for a long time.

"Anyone else want to challenge?" the referee raised his voice and asked again.

Still no one answered.

Chu Yunfeng's forbidden spell had truly frightened them.

This is no longer a competition, it's a fight to the death!

If that thing were to strike head-on, I'd probably be burned to a crisp, and even with the protection of the array, I wouldn't be able to save myself!

I waited for a full five minutes.

Finally, the referee reluctantly blew his whistle and announced, "Chu Yunfeng wins the third match!"

"This concludes this month's tournament. Thank you all for participating, and we welcome everyone to register next month!"

"Next, please have the three winning contestants come backstage to collect their prize money."

"..."

The audience response to today's match was quite positive.

Since the prize money for the tournament was monopolized by seasoned veterans, it's been a long time since any young faces have appeared on the field.

In contrast, the challengers all looked worried and distressed.

Everyone secretly prayed that these three monstrous young men wouldn't come back next month.

……

Yunlan Martial Arts Hall.

The three of them received their prizes from the competition.

Lin Fan exchanged 100,000 yuan for a C-grade physical enhancement agent, Xu Liyue selected a B-grade combat skill, and Chu Yunfeng directly accepted the 100,000 yuan bonus.

Despite the financial support from Qinglong Academy, the younger sister has not yet regained consciousness.

The daily hospitalization fees are a considerable burden.

The referee looked at the three of them, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

Finally, he couldn't help but lower his voice and say, "Three students, take my advice: after you leave Yunlan Martial Arts Hall, hurry back to school and try not to go out alone these days."

After scanning the surroundings, the referee continued in a low voice, "Lu Shaoming is a regular at our martial arts gym. He's narrow-minded and vindictive. He was humiliated in public today, so he won't let it go. He might find an opportunity to attack you."

"The Lu family is a powerful martial arts family; you must be careful..."

"Thanks for reminding me, I understand." Lin Fan nodded.

……

It took some time to process the procedures for claiming the prize money.

It was already dark when we left Yunlan Martial Arts Hall.

The martial arts hall is located in the suburbs, in a somewhat remote location.

The three of them were walking on an empty road, planning to call a car back to school using their phones.

"Lin Fan".

Just then, a chilling voice rang out.

"You don't actually think I'd let you go so easily, do you?"

Lu Shaoming emerged from the shadows, his face still bearing traces of blood, his eyes filled with malice.

Behind him followed an elderly man with gray hair.

The old man was dressed in a gray long robe, with his hands behind his back. His eyes were cloudy, yet they concealed a sharp edge, and he exuded an extraordinary aura.

Lin Fan stopped, shook his head helplessly, and laughed, "Looks like I went too easy on you just now; I didn't even manage to shut your mouth up."

"Still talking tough even when you're about to die?" Lu Shaoming's face turned ashen. "Let me tell you the truth, I've turned off all the surveillance cameras around here. Even if I kill you all here, no one will know."

Lu Shaoming's lips curled into a playful smile: "However, I'm always a magnanimous person. For the sake of that pretty girl, I can give you one last chance."

"Lin Fan, if you kneel down and kowtow three times to me right now, then crawl between my legs, I might consider only breaking your legs and sparing your life. How about it? Isn't that a good deal?"

"Is that so?" Lin Fan, upon hearing this, showed no fear whatsoever, but instead revealed a mocking smile.

"You're asking for it!"

Lu Shaoming opened his mouth with a ferocious expression, but it pulled at the wound on his face, causing him to scream in pain.

Having once again lost face in front of Xu Liyue, Lu Shaoming was completely enraged.

Those ignorant fools, they can still laugh even when death is imminent.

He wanted to see just how a few students, whose cultivation level was only at the second stage, dared to oppose him!

"Uncle Wang, leave that girl here, but kill the other two!" Lu Shaoming's voice was icy, and a hint of greed flashed in his eyes as he looked at Xu Liyue.

"Yes, young master." Upon hearing this, the old man stepped forward, and his powerful aura erupted, crushing down like a mountain.

This old man was actually a fifth-level martial artist!

Even with their amazing talents, Lin Fan and his two companions could not possibly contend with a fifth-tier martial artist.

However, the three of them showed no fear.

Xu Liyue simply lowered her head calmly, looked at the spatial sphere in her hand, and said softly, "Teacher, please."
