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

Beyond the Green Mountain Secret Realm.

The students who participated in the secret realm returned to their respective schools one after another.

As the crowds surged, the news spread like wildfire.

The results of the martial arts tournament quickly shocked Ningchuan City.

The Azure Dragon Academy, which no one had high hopes for, surprisingly achieved first place with unimaginable results!

On the contrary...

Not only did White Tiger Academy's academic performance plummet, but Principal Han Xiao and all the students participating in the martial arts tournament were also discovered by the law enforcement bureau to be secretly colluding with the demon race!

Upon learning this news, the entire martial arts world was outraged.

Three hundred years ago, when all races descended, it was through unity and the sacrifice of countless ancestors that humanity managed to secure a sliver of hope for survival.

Traitors are more hateful than foreigners.

Calls for the law enforcement agency to severely punish White Tiger Academy are growing louder and louder.

Under immense public pressure, teachers at Baihu Academy resigned en masse and accepted investigations, while students began dropping out en masse.

The former leader of the four major academies has now fallen completely...

……

Qinglong Academy.

As everyone returned to school, the entire school erupted in excitement.

Azure Dragon Academy did it!

They not only defeated the White Tiger Academy, but also won first place in the martial arts tournament.

This is a victory for the entire Azure Dragon Academy!

Both teachers and students felt incredibly excited at this moment.

The results of the martial arts tournament are directly related to the Education Bureau's allocation of resources to each school.

The higher the ranking, the more resources are available.

Qinglong Academy, which won first place with an overwhelming advantage, will receive a massive amount of resources in the coming year that far exceeds those of other schools, benefiting tens of thousands of teachers and students across the entire school.

The rise of Azure Dragon Academy was inevitable!

Su Chen's enormous body loomed in front of the teaching building, silently opening the system panel.

Azure Dragon Academy

[Rank: 2 stars (0/10000)]

[Reputation: 2500]

Number of people: 23516

[Evaluation: A somewhat well-known second-rate college]

"System, will I be able to gain a bloodline reversion every time the academy level is upgraded?" Su Chen asked.

The experience of bloodline reversion was so exhilarating that he became somewhat addicted after just one try.

[That's right, after Azure Dragon Academy is promoted to a 3-star academy, the host will be able to experience a bloodline reversion.]

The following are the standards for determining academy rankings.

[3-Star Academy: Top Provincial Martial Arts School]

[4-Star Academy: Top-Tier National Martial Arts School]

[5-Star Academy: World-Class Top Martial Arts School]

[6-Star Academy: A Galaxy-Level Top Martial Arts School]

【…】

"galaxy?"

After reading the system introduction, a hint of surprise flashed in Su Chen's eyes.

This system of mine really has a long-term vision.

However, this coincides with Su Chen's ambition.

The legendary Zhulong is a mythical creature that can turn day into night when its eyes are open and night into day when its eyes are closed, and it reigns supreme over the entire universe.

Sooner or later, he will leave Blue Star and lead Azure Dragon Academy into the starry sky!

Putting away the system panel, Su Chen looked at Lin Fan and the others, and said approvingly, "You all performed well in this martial arts tournament. I'll give you a day off today. Go home and rest."

"yes!"

Lin Fan, Xu Liyue, Chu Yunfeng, and Kong Bowen responded in unison.

They readily agreed, but no one took it seriously.

rest?

It's obvious that these few top students around me won't be idle after they go back.

If others are practicing while you are resting, it means you will fall behind!

After saying goodbye to Su Chen, Lin Fan, Chu Yunfeng, and Kong Bowen left the school.

Xu Liyue also headed towards Xiamen. As she walked, she suddenly realized that Xiao Hong, who had always been inseparable from her and stood on her shoulder ever since she recognized her as her master, was nowhere to be found.

"Little Red?"

Xu Liyue called out softly in confusion.

Just then, she suddenly felt an itch behind her ear, as if something had gently brushed against her.

Xu Liyue turned her head to the side and brushed aside her falling hair.

She then realized that Little Red had somehow crawled into her hair and was huddled behind her neck, trembling.

This little guy, who usually stands tall and proud, is now curled up in a ball, looking very scared.

Following its gaze, Xu Liyue's image landed on Su Chen.

Are you...afraid of your teacher?

Xu Liyue was slightly taken aback.

You should know that Xiao Hong's true form is the sacred beast Vermilion Bird. Among all birds, only the Phoenix can win its heart and soul.

But now, it's actually terrified like this...

Xu Liyue glanced back at Su Chen, a hint of surprise flashing in her usually cold eyes: "Teacher... just who are you?"

……

"It's so good to be young."

Watching Xu Liyue and the others leave the school, Zheng Yuanshan walked to Su Chen's side.

Once upon a time, he was also a student at the Azure Dragon Academy, harboring the lofty ideal of protecting humanity and driving all other races out of the Blue Star.

However, his talent at that time was far inferior to that of Xu Liyue and others.

"The investigation results are in," Zheng Yuanshan said. "Han Xiao himself admitted that in order to win the martial arts tournament, he secretly colluded with the demons to obtain demonic insects and demonic power."

"In exchange, he provided the demons with the coordinates of Ningchuan City."

"In the future, I'm afraid more and more demons will descend upon the vicinity of Ningchuan City."

"Demons?" Upon hearing this, Su Chen narrowed his snake-like eyes, a hint of excitement flashing in his golden vertical pupils.

Among the myriad races that descended upon Earth, the most troublesome adversaries for humanity are the Beastmen, followed by the Demons.

Although the number of demons is far less than that of beastmen, their overall strength is in no way inferior to that of beastmen. They are more intelligent and cunning than ferocious beasts, and they harbor great malice towards humans.

Such an opponent will undoubtedly bring more growth to Lin Fan and his team.

This is simply the perfect experience baby!

Of course, this is on the premise that Qinglong Academy is capable of absorbing this experience.

Su Chen raised his head and looked towards the playground.

Inspired by the victory in the martial arts tournament, many students stayed at school to continue training this afternoon, even though school was closed.

"Not bad, not bad, these kids are working much harder than before," Zheng Yuanshan said with a smile.

Just then, he noticed that Su Chen's gaze had fallen on a running track at the edge of the playground.

There, a girl wearing glasses and with two braids was running laps around the track.

After countless laps, glistening beads of sweat streamed down the girl's neck, soaking her white tracksuit and clinging it tightly to her body.

As a responsible principal, Zheng Yuanshan cares deeply about his students and remembers most of their names.

"Her name is Shen Danqing. She has awakened a B-grade elemental martial soul—[Wind Blade]. She has good talent, but her physical strength is a weakness. Her combat performance is only average in the school."

"She's been sick recently and has taken a month off. This is probably the first time you've met her..."

Su Chen nodded slightly at the snake's head, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

In the past few days, he has seen almost all the students of Qinglong Academy with his Demon God's Eye.

Su Chen invested in all those whose qualifications were rated as excellent or above.

I thought we had dug up most of the seedlings that needed to be dug up, but I never expected to encounter such a pleasant surprise!

As Su Chen looked at Shen Danqing, a crisp system notification sounded in his ear.
