Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 70 Ling Bai, I Want to Become Stronger (4K)

Ning Tian covered her red lips, her azure eyes filled with glistening tears, like ripples spreading across a clear spring. Her delicate, rounded shoulders trembled, and tears silently streamed down her face, crystal clear.

She gazed intently at the figure before her, whose features were clean and gentle, as if basking in the last rays of spring sunshine. His bright golden eyes shone like morning stars, and the smile deep within them seemed to encompass all the beauty in the world.

Ling Bai defeated everyone like a god descending to earth, yet he personally admitted that he had lost to him. What Ning Tian cared about was not the soul bone, but the feeling of being favored by Ling Bai.

This feeling was just like Cupid firing an Italian cannon at her, leaving her dizzy and disoriented, forcing her to surrender.

"Brother Bai, I..."

Ning Tian's red lips parted slightly, as if she was about to say something, but Ling Bai knew Ning Tian too well. He held up an index finger to her lips and chuckled softly:

"Xiao Tian, ​​I've seen your recent mood and actions, and I understand what you want to do. Medusa Skull is a solidified soul skill, and Medusa Gaze will definitely become an excellent aid on your future path."

Besides, I've already given it away, and so many people are watching. I don't want to lose face.

"Um!"

Ning Tian nodded emphatically, solemnly vowing in his heart that he would not disappoint Ling Bai!

For ten thousand years, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School has sent direct disciples to Shrek Academy in every generation, thus figuring out some of Shrek Academy's patterns.

The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament is held every five years, and next year is the time to hold the next tournament. Shrek Academy will send two teams, namely the Shrek Seven Devils and the Seven Devils Reserve Team, composed of disciples from both the inner and outer academies.

The Seven Devils' reserve team—she, Huo Yuhao, and the other two are bound to clash once again!

Ning Tian was not the type to swallow her anger; she wanted to wash away the humiliation she had suffered in a dignified manner!

The two of them looked so affectionate, giving the more than 400 first-year students a mouthful of food specially prepared for single people.

Cao Jinxuan slowly woke up, turned his head and saw Ling Baining and Tian Tian showing off their affection. He immediately turned to his good brother Zhou Sichen and said indignantly:

"Brother Zhou, do I look like some kind of despicable person? Why am I being attacked the moment I open my eyes?!"

"Listen to me, we won't watch."

Zhou Sichen pulled down Cao Jinxuan's eyelids and murmured, "The fault isn't ours, it's this world that mocks single people."

"Brother Zhou, I'm so upset! Not only can I not beat him, but I can't even outsmart him!"

Not only Cao Jinxuan and Zhou Sichen, but all the first-year boys had sour expressions on their faces, as if they had eaten two pounds of plums. Whether it was appearance, personality, talent or background, Ning Tian was impeccable.

Therefore, many male students resolutely embarked on a journey of simping, and when senior disciples learned that the heir of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School had appeared, many of them also launched a fierce pursuit of Ning Tian, ​​attempting to climb the social ladder and become a phoenix.

The male students felt bitter. Ning Tian had always been indifferent to his suitors, which made them think they had a chance to win the beauty's heart. But what if the goddess suddenly became blind?

Now that his wish has been shattered, a freakish monster of similar age, whose talent and looks far surpass his own, suddenly appears. He and Ning Tian are mutually attracted and fall in love at first sight!

Ling Bai seemed to already be taken, which the female students naturally found very regrettable. However, their innate talent for gossiping and their intense CP fantasies made them temporarily forget about the handsome guy and their defeat in battle. Led by the Lan sisters, the shipper girls watched the well-matched couple from afar, revealing pink, infatuated smiles.

Everything was harmonious and loving, except for the sound of Wu Feng grinding his teeth wildly, which somewhat disrupted the atmosphere.

"What a thrilling battle!"

Du Weilun, the Dean of the Martial Soul Department, led the applause, and then applause from the teachers rang out from the stands.

"Thank you for your help, Teacher Li."

"It's nothing."

Teacher Li was a middle-aged man dressed in white. He raised his smooth, fair hands, which resembled those of a child. Soft green light grew from his palms, turning yellow, purple, and black. Seven spirit rings rose from his feet, revealing him to be a powerful Soul Saint.

The green light formed the shape of leaves, Teacher Li's sixth soul ring flashed, and a gentle breeze seemed to blow in the arena. One after another, emerald green leaves flew out, exactly four hundred and fifty-one, and landed lightly between the eyebrows of Ling Bai and the first-year students.

The cool, life-giving energy instantly nourished his entire body, restoring the soreness and weakness from depleted soul power, the minor injuries inevitably sustained during battle, and even his physical strength at an astonishing speed.

A top-tier healing-type martial soul, the Tree of Life.

Nourished by the Tree of Life, the students returned to their peak condition. Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Dai Huabin, and others awoke. If Ling Bai and Ning Tian hadn't stood in the center of the Soul Arena, they would have almost believed that they had just had a not-so-pleasant dream.

Three pairs of eyes instantly locked onto Ling Bai. Dai Huabin's gaze was purely driven by fighting spirit. He and Ling Bai were complete strangers and had no hatred between them. The White Tiger was a martial spirit primarily for combat and slaughter. Dai Huabin had previously considered himself invincible among his peers, and now he had finally found someone to pursue!

In comparison, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were significantly more complex. Huo Yuhao's eyes contained a mixture of apprehension, disappointment, fighting spirit, fear, and shock, resembling a pie chart, while Wang Dong carried a hidden, deep-seated hatred.

After Teacher Li finished her treatment and returned to the ranks of teachers, Du Weilun cleared his throat, and his loud voice resounded throughout the room:

"First-year students, did you see that? This is what Shrek Academy's inner court is like! This is what a true monster looks like! A full four hundred and fifty students couldn't defeat one of their peers!"

Upon hearing this, the first-year students lowered their heads in embarrassment. No one present was stupid; Ling Bai's conceding defeat to Ning Tian was merely a joke between them, and no one would be foolish enough to jump out and say that they won against Ling Bai because of the support-type Soul Master Ning Tian.

"I can tell you definitively that Shrek Academy is a paradise for monsters. Only monsters can enter, and only the monsters among monsters can leave!"

"Like Ling Bai, the inner court disciples climbed in by stepping over the heads of countless monsters. It's uncertain whether most of you will even graduate from the outer court, let alone the inner court!"

Du Weilun's words undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to the first-year students. The bloody and cruel reality was right in front of them. Monsters from all over the continent were kneeling at the feet of another enormous monster that blotted out the sky. The pride they had gained from passing the freshman assessment vanished, and their mentality became as precarious as walking on thin ice once again.

Ling Bai leisurely surveyed everyone. Du Weilun was certainly exaggerating a bit, but this was precisely an educational method, just like in the previous life, you were made to do an extremely difficult test paper. Suppression was not the ultimate goal; the essence was to learn from shame and then strive for improvement.

Du Weiren continued, "Given your poor performance, I've decided to add an additional test next year! All of you will challenge Ling Bai again. If your performance is still this bad, then please voluntarily withdraw from Shrek Academy to avoid failing the graduation test and wasting several precious years!"

Ok?

wrong!

We agreed to fight once, so why is there suddenly another fight?

Ling Bai realized that Du Weiren was no good!

Ning Tian felt extremely humiliated by his loss to Huo Yuhao and vowed to get revenge. The more than four hundred losers, upon hearing that they could fight Ling Bai again, were also filled with a soaring fighting spirit, an invisible flame burning fiercely within them.

Ling Bai cursed Du Weilun in his heart, "You bastard, you're just causing trouble!"

With the plan successfully completed, Du Weilin breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Zhou Yi, saying:

"Remember to keep our bet; I expect to see your transfer application first thing tomorrow morning."

"understood."

Zhou Yi gritted her teeth, as if forcing out three words from her throat.

The position of class teacher at the No. 1 Soul Master Academy on the continent is something that countless Soul Masters dream of, yet she lost it so easily and slunk away to the Soul Guidance Department to do logistics work.

She was not convinced!

"Director Du, I've contributed to the Martial Soul Department over the years, achieving the highest graduation rate among all teachers! Please give me another chance, and I promise I won't expel students arbitrarily..."

Circumstances dictate the course of events, and Zhou Yi began to soften her stance, recounting her achievements to Du Weilun. However, Du Weilun remained unmoved, coldly stating:

"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond; is Teacher Zhou someone you can't stand being offended?"

As soon as she finished speaking, an immense pressure at the level of a Contra Douluo instantly enveloped Zhou Yi, causing her bones to creak and her expression to twist as if she would shatter into pieces at any moment.

Under pressure, Zhou Yi, with cold sweat pouring down her face, managed to say, "I'm sorry, Director Du, I will submit my transfer application to you tomorrow."

Du Weiren withdrew his oppressive aura and nodded in satisfaction. Then, remembering something, he said, "There's still a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone left in the bet. Cash it in as soon as possible."

Zhou Yi clenched her fists tightly, veins popping on her forehead. She took a deep breath, reached into her storage soul tool, took out a white jade box, tossed it to Du Weilun, and hurriedly left, seemingly heading towards the Soul Guidance Department.

"That's all for today. Everyone, go back to your dorms and focus on your training. Teachers, get some rest too. Ling Bai, come to the director's office!"

As dusk fell, Du Weilun dismissed the first-year students and teachers, but specifically asked Ling Bai to stay behind.

"Today is a good day, I'm so happy Zhou Yi is gone~"

Throughout the journey, Ling Bai endured the torment of Du Weilun's piercing voice, keeping a safe distance of five meters from him with a sullen face.

"Bang!"

Du Weilun closed the office door, his face beaming with a wide grin. The Martial Soul Department was rid of Zhou Yi like a patient having a tumor removed. From now on, they wouldn't have to deal with the overflowing complaint box every year, nor would they have to worry about geniuses being inexplicably fired.

Seeing Ling Bai's speechless expression, Du Weilun took out a jade box and pushed it towards him, laughing, "This is a ten-thousand-year-old Mad Rhinoceros right leg soul bone, worth at least a million or two hundred thousand gold soul coins, enough to cover your appearance fee."

Ling Bai could tell that Du Weiren was a very capable person!

Earning a million in one afternoon, hehe, I'll come again next time!

"Director Du, you're too kind. As a senior student, it's only right that I look after the younger students in the School of Foreign Languages!"

Ling Bai verbally declined, but his actions in receiving the stolen goods were not slow at all.

"Alright, stop with the fake politeness!" Du Weilen laughed heartily. "You've had a long day, go back to Seagod Island and rest!"

Ling Bai smiled and thanked him. This time, his one-on-one fight against all the first-year students helped Ning Tian regain his face, and he also gained a ten-thousand-year soul bone for free. Du Weilun helped the Martial Soul Department eliminate Zhou Yi and ignited the students' enthusiasm for cultivation.

Both got what they needed, so in short, neither of them lost out.

When Ling Bai walked out of the Martial Soul Department teaching building, it was already late. A bright moon rose high in the sky, casting a silvery light.

The night view of Shrek Academy was extremely beautiful. Ling Bai bathed in the moonlight and admired the night view. His soul seemed to be cleansed, and his fatigue and worries vanished.

Fifteen minutes later, Ling Bai arrived at the shore of the Sea God Lake in the outer courtyard. Just as he was about to cross the lake, a familiar fiery red figure suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

Witch Wind!

The moment Ling Bai saw Wu Feng clearly, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief. This guy was actually running around Sea God Lake in the middle of the night!

"Oh, this..."

Ling Bai was both amused and exasperated. During his midnight run, Wu Feng, that idiot, had picked up all of Shrek Academy's rubbish!

What, trying to emulate Huo Yuhao?

Others have cheat codes, do you?

A Soul Master losing the running course is like a fish losing its bicycle.

The effect of running is negligible. Huo Yuhao was doing it to exhaust his strength so that the Xuan Tian Gong could better nourish his meridians. If he had replaced running with sit-ups, the effect would have been the same.

So... Wu Feng, what's wrong with you?

"Huff...huff..."

Wu Feng's white school uniform was completely soaked. Her already hot figure was now even more alluring, highlighting her curves.

She saw Ling Bai, but completely ignored him, panting as she walked past him and ran forward on her own.

Ling Bai crossed his arms and remained calm.

Human strength is sometimes limited, he thought.

One lap... two laps... five laps...

Wu Feng ran lap after lap without stopping. She couldn't remember how many laps she had run. She only felt that her steps were heavy as if they were filled with lead. Her body was exhausted, her feet were in excruciating pain, and her breathing was like a bellows being pulled, causing a sharp, painful sensation. She would rather bite her lips until they turned pale than stop in front of Ling Bai.

His physical strength and soul power were completely exhausted, and he was only able to hold on by his mental will. But the flesh and blood body has its limits, and Wu Feng fell down in front of Ling Bai with a thud.

"hiss--"

Wu Feng gasped in pain, trying several times to get up by bracing herself with her hands, but failed each time. Then, she realized that a shadow had fallen over her.

She knew who it was, and it was precisely because she knew who it was that she desperately wanted to get up again.

"The basic soul master education of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School does not include the idea that running promotes cultivation."

Sitting on the ground, she slowly raised her head. Crimson and golden eyes met. A hazy mist rose in Wu Feng's pupils. She tried her best to control herself, but tears fell like pearls from a broken string. Her fiery red hair was wet, and two strands of hair fell down and stuck to the side of her pale face.

"Ling Bai, I want to become stronger..."

She spoke, her lips moving.

"Speak louder, I can't hear you."

"Ling Bai, I want to become stronger!"

With a sudden burst of strength, Wu Feng leaped up and roared at Ling Bai.

"You bullied me, but I endured it for Ning Tian's sake." Her expression was stubborn. "But now, no one can bully Ning Tian! Ling Bai, I know you're much more capable than those teachers from the outer academy. Please, teach me to become stronger! I want to help Ning Tian defeat all his opponents, and I'm willing to pay any price!"

On the shores of Poseidon Lake at night, the girl roared out her resentment and desire to become stronger!

"No matter what it takes, including your life?" Ling Bai asked.

"I don't want life or soul, I only want power!"

Her heart broke the moment Ning Tian fled with his face covered. Wu Feng vowed that she would never let Ning Tian experience the humiliation of defeat a second time in her life!

"Rent a secluded room at the Soul Arena. After your Soul Training course ends, I'll wait for you there. Every night, I'll personally train you for two hours, in real combat."

Ling Bai soared into the air, his clear voice seemingly echoing in Wu Feng's ears.

"good!"

Wu Feng's eyes gleamed. If he had a choice, who would want to run like a fool?

"Don't cry and wail like you did when you were a kid when you lost a game."

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng's cheeks flushed red, and he exclaimed:

"impossible!

One day I will surpass you!

Two large golden characters, written in a flamboyant style, appeared in mid-air.

look forward to.
