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

"Who's here? Tsk tsk tsk, it's Lin Fan, the good-for-nothing in our class who awakened an E-level martial soul."

As soon as Lin Fan entered the classroom, he heard a strange, sarcastic voice.

Li Jiahao propped his feet up on the desk, a sneer playing on his lips: "Lin Fan, for the sake of our past as classmates, I can give you a chance, as long as you kneel before me..."

"You idiot, what are you barking about like a dog?"

He recalled Su Chen's teachings.

Before Li Jiahao could finish speaking, Lin Fan cursed.

"Lin Fan, you're asking for death!" Li Jiahao's face froze instantly. He kicked the desk away and gritted his teeth, saying, "It seems you haven't realized just how big the gap is between us now."

After saying that, Li Jiahao let out a low shout, and a violent aura surged from his body.

Behind him, a huge, semi-transparent phantom slowly coalesced.

It was a giant tiger, three to five times the size of an ordinary tiger, covered in grayish-yellow fur, with a pair of long, narrow fangs protruding from its mouth, gleaming with a chilling light.

A-grade ferocious beast martial spirit - Saber-toothed Tiger!

The saber-toothed tiger's scarlet eyes were fixed on Lin Fan, as if it regarded him as prey.

An invisible pressure instantly enveloped the classroom.

"Fan... Brother Fan." Wang Haochen stood at the door, his face ashen.

The others in the classroom were also secretly sweating for Lin Fan.

"This is the Saber-toothed Tiger Martial Soul? It's incredibly oppressive!"

"Go and inform the teacher right away! An A-grade martial soul is no joke; if a fight breaks out, someone could die!"

Faced with the menacing prehistoric behemoth, Lin Fan stood calmly in place, showing no sign of panic.

Li Jiahao grinned maliciously as he activated his Saber-toothed Tiger Martial Soul: "Very well, I'd like to see what gives you, a mere E-rank Martial Soul, the right to act so arrogantly in front of me!"

"You talk too much nonsense."

Lin Fan uttered four words calmly.

Just as the saber-toothed tiger pounced, a purple lightning bolt appeared in his palm, instantly condensing into a spear.

Amidst the lightning, Lin Fan's figure transformed into a blur, so fast it seemed he vanished from his spot.

"What?!"

Li Jiahao's pupils shrank sharply. Before the majestic saber-toothed tiger phantom could even react, a cold light carrying lightning was already in front of him.

"laugh!"

The spear easily pierced the saber-toothed tiger's phantom brow and emerged from the back of its head.

The phantom of the prehistoric behemoth could only let out a mournful howl in resentment before its massive body instantly shattered into countless specks of light.

Li Jiahao himself was violently thrown away by the powerful impact, smashing into the classroom wall and creating a shocking crater.

A loud bang!

Li Jiahao was charred black all over, half of his body was embedded in the wall, and he had completely lost consciousness.

The classroom was deathly silent.

Everyone stared wide-eyed in shock at the lightning-sparkling spear in Lin Fan's hand.

"What kind of martial spirit is this? It's completely different from what I saw during the awakening ceremony!"

"What terrifying power! The A-rank saber-toothed tiger couldn't even last a second. This is an S-rank... no, at least an SS-rank martial soul!"

"What on earth happened? Wasn't Lin Fan originally an E-rank martial soul?!"

"..."

Lin Fan calmly put away the Purple Lightning Spear and returned to his seat.

Although he beat Li Jiahao half to death, he remained completely calm.

Li Jiahao thought that awakening an A-level martial soul would allow him to do whatever he wanted, but he forgot one thing.

Although the Azure Dragon Academy is weak, it is more united than ever before!

The school has always maintained a zero-tolerance attitude towards school bullying and other acts of bullying the weak.

If discovered, immediate dismissal!

Therefore, even if he beat Li Jiahao half to death, the academy would not hold him accountable.

On the contrary, Li Jiahao himself will soon face forced expulsion from the school.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Lin Fan opened the book "Eight Desolations Battle Manual" that Su Chen had given him.

After reading only a few lines, Lin Fan's expression suddenly changed, and a glint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

wonderful.

That's great!

This book, "Eight Desolate Battle Manual," is all-encompassing and self-contained. Its cultivation method of tempering the body with lightning is perfectly suited to his martial spirit.

As the former top genius of Azure Dragon Academy, Lin Fan's vision far surpasses that of ordinary people. He comes into contact with B-level and even A-level cultivation techniques.

But those cultivation techniques seem insignificant compared to the "Eight Desolations Battle Manual" before them!

"Throughout the eight directions and six realms, I alone reign supreme..."

The more Lin Fan read, the more shocked he became.

This level of skill is definitely not something that can be bought with money on the market.

Even the three major academies of White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise might not be able to muster such resources!

"What exactly is the origin of the academy's guardian beast?" Lin Fan murmured to himself.

Su Chen's image in his mind became increasingly unfathomable.

……

[Ding! The strength of your bound investment target "Lin Fan" has increased. Congratulations, host, you have received a reward of 1000 Evolution Points!]

[Ding! Lin Fan's Martial Soul [Purple Lightning Spear] has resonated deeply with the cultivation technique "Eight Desolate Battle Technique". Congratulations, host, you have received the reward: Lightning Element Affinity +1!]

At the same time, a crisp electronic voice rang in Su Chen's ears.

"Huh? You're getting a rebate so quickly?"

Su Chen slowly opened his snake eyes, and his sleepiness instantly vanished.

How long has it been? Less than ten minutes, right?

Is Lin Fan really that efficient?

A thousand evolution points may not seem like much, but even a small amount is still something.

What truly interested Su Chen was that 1 point of lightning element affinity.

He slightly opened the snake's mouth.

The next second, several thin purple arcs of electricity coiled from Su Chen's mouth, condensing into a small ball of lightning the size of an adult's head.

"good."

Su Chen swallowed the lightning ball and nodded in satisfaction.

It seems that as Lin Fan grows, his control over the lightning element will become stronger and stronger.

What if you invest in other people?

Could he also gain powers of other attributes? Like wind, fire, ice, hypnosis, altering common sense, time-stopping...?

Su Chen's snake-like eyes narrowed slightly as his thoughts drifted away.

If that were really possible, wouldn't he be able to master all attributes in the future? Just thinking about it makes people... no, it makes snakes excited!

I'm a little hungry.

Just then, Su Chen suddenly felt a strong hunger in his abdomen.

Evolution had taken a toll on his energy, and his stomach was now completely empty.

"We should go find something to eat." Su Chen licked his lips.

Besides acquiring evolution points through system investment, he also has a more primitive and direct method—devouring.

Devouring ferocious beasts can also grant evolution points, and it also fills your stomach at the same time—killing two birds with one stone!
