The Transmigrator Who Changed Doupo

Canaan College, Inner Court.

Canaan College is divided into an outer court and an inner court. The outer court is vast, and the inner court also spans a wide range of terrain.

After leaving the barrier space of the Alchemy Valley, Xiao Xuanyuan led a group of alchemist disciples on a journey that took nearly a day, and finally arrived at the inner courtyard.

Entering the inner courtyard of the Alchemy Valley is a privilege. After Xiao Xuanyuan took out a golden token engraved with a miniature medicine cauldron, he was allowed to pass. An elder from the inner courtyard even came over to guide him and arrange all the food and lodging.

The following day, as dawn broke and the light was warm, Xiao Xuanyuan convened a meeting of his audience in a square. Under his leadership, the "Medicine Alliance" was established, and all disciples from the Medicine Refining Valley were required to join.

"I'm not joining!"

Just as Xiao Xuanyuan was speaking passionately and spitting as he spoke on the stage, a cold voice suddenly rang out from among the more than twenty alchemists in the audience, immediately drawing everyone's attention.

After a slight pause, Xiao Xuanyuan flew into a rage, shouting, "Which bastard is speaking? Step forward and face me!"

The surrounding alchemist disciples all stepped aside, making way for an open space, leaving only a tall, proud figure standing there.

"Xiao Yan, it's you again, the one who's causing trouble for me! Are you looking for a beating?!" Seeing that it was his own clansman and cousin, Xiao Xuanyuan was slightly taken aback, but his anger only intensified after a moment. This bastard had come to him yesterday, asking for his help to escape the Medicine Refining Valley and obtain a spot in the Inner Academy. Today, on his very first day in the Inner Academy, he immediately started causing trouble for him. Xiao Xuanyuan wished he could kill this guy on the spot!

Please advise!

Xiao Yan turned his head to the side, bowing respectfully without being humble or arrogant, a cold smile playing on his lips. He thought to himself, "Cousin, you're just a pawn in my game. Don't think that just because you helped me, I'll obey your every command. Dream on! If I can't defeat you and win back Xun'er in this life, I swear I'm not worthy of being called a human!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuanyuan felt as if he had been slapped in the face in public, his face burning with embarrassment. "Well, you've been neglecting your discipline for three days and you're already causing trouble. Today, I, the Palace Master, will teach you a lesson."

Soon, the group arrived at a martial arts arena, which was the inner academy's recognized dueling ground. If two parties had a conflict, and one party challenged the other to a duel, the two parties could settle their differences on the arena.

The arena was enormous, spanning tens of thousands of feet. As far as the eye could see, there were hundreds of tall arenas, with about fifty or sixty people fighting on them. The sounds of fists and feet striking flesh, the explosions of colliding battle energies, and so on, resounded throughout the entire arena. Around each arena where people were fighting, crowds of onlookers stood, and screams, whistles, shouts, cheers, and shouts filled the air.

The arena is divided into separate areas, and the space is huge enough to accommodate hundreds of spectators.

The group crossed several arenas where fights were taking place. Many alchemist disciples couldn't help but look around curiously. Xiao Xuanyuan led the way, heading towards the nearest empty arena.

Among the group, Xiao Yan walked at the back, his figure slow and leisurely, while Lu Mu and several other acquaintances walked with him. They had all come from the outer courtyard to the Alchemy Valley together. Even though Xiao Yan was usually rather aloof in his interactions, they were still acquaintances.

Lu Mu put his hand on Xiao Yan's shoulder, patted him, and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, you're not from the same family as the Alliance Leader. Why do you act recklessly and cause a conflict with your own family?"

“Yes, I heard you only got into the inner courtyard through connections with the alliance leader. Why ruin your relationship with your own brothers?” Another burly man with a simple and honest appearance, named Ruan Ziping, also advised. He was from the same batch of outer courtyard students as Xiao Xuanyuan. This year, more than twenty people from their class entered the Alchemy Valley. Although the number seemed considerable, it was still a drop in the ocean compared to the hundreds of outer courtyard disciples who directly entered the inner courtyard.

"Xiao Yan, you'd better be sensible. The Alliance Leader's strength is unfathomable; it's said he's already reached the Dou Wang level. You'd better not provoke him." Another well-dressed young man named Xi Feiyu said, "The Alliance Leader only took one year—just one year! Think about it—and he became a sixth-grade advanced alchemist, leaping to become a highly sought-after figure in the Alchemy Valley, the Sixth Elder. Even Elder Nangong has a close relationship with him. What makes you think you can compete with him?!"

Seeing his former acquaintances trying to persuade him, Xiao Yan frowned. He bowed to them with a calm expression and said, "I understand your intentions, but he stole my Xun'er and took away my mother's belongings. I must defeat him, avenge myself, and take back everything I have lost."

Seeing that Xiao Yan said so, the others sighed slightly, patted his shoulder, and said no more. Some things only need to be said once. If the other party doesn't listen, there's no point in saying more, it will only increase their resentment. After all, the relationship between the others and Xiao Yan wasn't that close.

Ten minutes later, the group arrived at the empty arena. Xiao Xuanyuan called out and then went up onto the arena with Xiao Yan.

Watching a fight in the arena can increase one's combat experience. And there are plenty of students in the inner courtyard who love to watch the excitement. Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Xuanyuan and Xiao Yan stepped onto the arena, the spectators from the surrounding arenas who had finished their matches all rushed over to watch the two fight.

Some busybodies even inquired about the origins of the two people on stage. Naturally, some alchemist disciples liked to chat and immediately introduced Xiao Xuanyuan's identity in detail. He was the newly founded leader of the "Medicine Alliance". As for the matter of the Medicine Valley, Xiao Xuanyuan had repeatedly warned during his previous speech not to tell outsiders any rumors or things about him in the Medicine Valley, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble!

However, some things cannot be stopped just by trying to suppress them. There will always be a few troublemakers who will leak things out. Xiao Xuanyuan naturally knew this. He was just doing his best and leaving the rest to fate, trying his best to keep his scandals spreading within a small circle and not let everyone know.

"Xiao Yan, make your move!"

With his powerful soul perception extending slightly, Xiao Xuanyuan quickly understood why Xiao Yan was so confident. It turned out that this kid had encountered a fortuitous event and broken through to the level of a one-star Dou Wang!

Indeed, Xiao Xuanyuan has it all, so how could Xiao Yan, as the chosen one of destiny, not have it?

"Since we're going to fight anyway, why don't we increase the stakes?" Xiao Yan's tiger eyes flashed with a sharp light as he stared intently at Xiao Xuanyuan, his soul perception, which had reached the advanced level of the Spirit Realm, locking onto his opponent.

"If I win, you must leave Elder Nangong and resign from your identity in the Alchemy Valley. If I lose," Xiao Yan said with a cold smile, "Since you stole Xun'er, then I will separate you from that woman."

Before Xiao Yan could finish speaking, Xiao Xuanyuan immediately interrupted, "This is not negotiable. Xiao Yan, don't say I didn't warn you, if you keep challenging my bottom line like this, even if you are a member of my Xiao family, I won't hesitate to kill you!"

"Is that so?" Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow, a chill emanating from the depths of his heart, making him feel a slight icy coldness. He didn't believe the other party was lying; Xiao Xuanyuan indeed possessed that strength. However, Xiao Yan touched the gray ring on his finger, feeling reassured. With Elder Yan here...

"Then let's talk about a different condition. If you lose, you have to lie on the ground and bark like a dog, calling me 'Master' three times, and then return my mother's belongings!" After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yan said slowly.

---Aside---

Our chosen one, Xiao Yan, has made a comeback and risen again! Let me show you just how strong he really is!

Chapter Two: Still rambling on and on, are we going to fight or not?

"Where do you get your confidence? Don't you know you've already lost to me three times? Are you addicted to being tortured? And I remember, when you lost to me the last time, you promised never to show your face in front of me again, right?"

Xiao Xuanyuan stared at the other party with a cold and deep gaze, but his face carried a hint of mockery.

"Do you dare, or don't you dare?" Xiao Yan was somewhat speechless with anger. He still remembered the last battle, where he was brutally trampled underfoot and told to get lost. It was a great humiliation! However, for the sake of becoming stronger, he endured it all.

"If you lose, what will you bet on?" Xiao Xuanyuan snorted and looked at Xiao Yan with great interest, as if he had seen through him from head to toe. He possessed the Heavenly Vision Prodigy, and since his madness with Chen Ya in the third level of the Divine Medicine Pavilion, the Heavenly Vision Prodigy had evolved once again, turning into the pale purple Heavenly Punishment Purple Eyes!

Under the Heavenly Punishment Purple Eyes, nothing can be hidden. Whether it's items, origins, or identity, Xiao Yan is now like a naked madman running around under the pale purple Heavenly Punishment Purple Eyes, completely exposed with no secrets whatsoever.

Of course, Xiao Xuanyuan would never use the Heavenly Punishment Purple Eyes to spy on Nangong Wan. He held this almost perfect woman in the deepest respect, and there was an inexplicable and tangled entanglement between them. If anyone wanted to harm this woman, they would have to step over his dead body. This was Xiao Xuanyuan's bottom line.

Before setting off, Xiao Xuanyuan risked offending the Valley Master of the Alchemy Valley and even dared to warn him that if he found out that this old scoundrel had bullied Nangong Wan, he would beat him up no matter what kind of Dou Zong expert he was!

Naturally, Xiao Xuanyuan never used the Heavenly Punishment Purple Eye to cheat or spy on the privacy of any other woman. He couldn't get past that moral hurdle; it was immoral.

Meeting Xiao Xuanyuan's fleeting, pale purple eyes, Xiao Yan suddenly felt a chill run through his entire body. For a moment, he felt as if he were standing naked in front of the other person, and the shame made Xiao Yan angry. What was going on? Why did he have this strange feeling?

In that instant, Xiao Yan felt as if he were an insignificant ant, while the other party was the supreme ruler of this world. This feeling was strange yet terrifying. Even if it was only for a moment, was it just an illusion?

Not only Xiao Yan, but Elder Yan, who was inside the gray ring, also shuddered. He transmitted his voice to Xiao Yan, "Be careful, that kid is not simple. He may have some extraordinary treasures or methods on him!"

Xiao Yan nodded secretly.

"If I lose, I will willingly serve you as my master and obey your commands." Xiao Yan's voice was clear and resonant, reaching everyone around him in the audience.

"You said the same thing during our last battle." Xiao Xuanyuan sneered, not buying Xiao Yan's act. This guy keeps using the same tricks over and over again, just to surpass him.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's old face flushed slightly. It was indeed true. Last time, Xiao Xuanyuan had already put aside past grievances and not only forgave him, but also gave him other treasures such as the Xuanzhong Ruler, the Burning Technique, and the low-level Earth-rank Dou Technique Flame Dividing Wave Ruler. Otherwise, Xiao Yan would not have made such rapid progress in strength, chasing after Xiao Xuanyuan all the way to reach such a level of power!

"Then what do you want?"

Xiao Yan felt incredibly embarrassed and quickly asked.

"Hehe, the reason I challenged you before is the same reason you gave me for challenging me now. So, the same old rule applies now: if I win, I still want that gray ring in your hand."

Xiao Xuanyuan stared intently at the gray ring containing a powerful soul, his face full of interest.

"Impossible!" This time, Xiao Yan wasn't as foolish as before, and he refused outright.

"Hey, you two on stage, why are you talking so much nonsense? Are you going to fight or not? We've been waiting for ages, and you've been babbling on and on, making us just wait around." Now that the sun was high in the sky and the sunlight was getting hotter, some people, braving the sun, couldn't help but get impatient and started urging us on.

"Exactly, exactly, so much nonsense, it's making my ears sick." Someone immediately chimed in, but the noise from the onlookers immediately drew the ire of the Medicine Alliance members.

With a single glance from Xiao Xuanyuan, Lu Mu immediately understood his meaning, stepped forward, and led a group of Medicine Alliance members to drive them away, shouting loudly, "Take it or leave it. If you don't want to watch, get lost. Stop making a scene here."

Alchemists are of noble status and usually have many powerful connections and networks. When the troublemaking inner court students saw the many alchemists wearing the same medicinal robes with the first, second, or even third rank insignia on their left chests, they eventually chickened out, kept quiet, or walked away.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Xiao Xuanyuan felt relieved. "Xiao Yan, how about this? Just like our first bet at the Xiao family, but with the conditions reversed. If you lose, you kneel on the ground and bark like a dog, and call me 'Master' three times. If I lose, I'll return this ring to you. Is that alright? I'll consider this a way of settling my score with you."

"Hey, hey, hey, I just woke up and you're already selling me out? Are you even capable? If we lose, am I supposed to go with that kid?" A complaint came from the medicine old man inside the ring.

"Don't worry, he can't beat me!" Xiao Xuanyuan comforted Yao Lao.

"Fine, if you lose, I'll consider it as me taking on another disciple, even though that kid's talent is a bit lacking compared to yours." The old man's voice was indignant as he watched the battle unfold with great interest.

After a moment's thought, Xiao Yan slapped his thigh. This was a great deal! He would repay Xiao Xuanyuan for how he had treated him before, and take back everything in the process.

Seeing Xiao Yan nod, Xiao Xuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Then let's begin, I'll let you make the first move!"

Seeing that the two had reached an agreement, the onlookers wiped the sweat from their foreheads and breathed a sigh of relief. This was too long-winded. They had been arguing for so long over a fight. In this blazing sun, if they had continued to wait any longer, they might have gotten heatstroke.

"Eight Extremes Heaven! Mountain Collapse!"

Xiao Yan let out a loud shout, his fiery red Dou Qi burning with terrifying temperature, causing the surrounding void to faintly burn and distort. He clenched his fists, and a terrifying power gathered from his whole body, instantly transforming his entire figure into a spinning top in mid-air, like a high-powered drill, which shot towards Xiao Xuanyuan opposite him.

"Such a powerful energy fluctuation! This kid's strength has improved quite a bit!"

Xiao Xuanyuan was somewhat startled. He was truly impressed by what he had seen in just three days. The title of "Chosen One" was well-deserved! However, Xiao Xuanyuan was still confident that he could handle everything.

"Mighty Sky-Piercing Fist! Raging Bull Strikes the Mountain!"

Xiao Yan attacked very quickly, arriving in almost half a breath, but Xiao Xuanyuan arrived first despite being behind, charging forward head-on!

Boom boom boom!

Xiao Yan's fist was deafeningly powerful, piercing the sky and creating a swirling gust of wind as it rushed towards Xiao Xuanyuan. Even those far away could feel the biting wind.

Moo moo moo!

Xiao Xuanyuan threw a punch, the pale yellow fire fighting energy carrying a deep and heavy feeling. In the blink of an eye, the fist light transformed into a giant ancient demonic beast, the Wild Bull, with a body as tall and strong as a small mountain. With its pair of large, rugged horns, it let out a series of moos, stepped on the void, and charged forward fiercely.

---Aside---

Our mighty Xiao Yan is back!

Chapter Three: You're publicly displaying your affection and you still think you're right?

Boom!

Rumble!

The fighting technique Xiao Yan used was the "Eight Extremes Collapse," a low-level Xuan-rank fighting technique he was skilled in. With his extraordinary talent and comprehension, he combined it with the "Eight Extremes Mountain," a mid-level Di-rank fighting technique taught to him by Elder Yan, to create the "Eight Extremes Heaven."

Although it is not yet fully perfected, Xiao Yan believes that if he can truly perfect and master this self-created "Eight Extremes Heaven" fighting technique, its power will be comparable to a high-level Earth-rank fighting technique, or even a Heaven-rank fighting technique!

Moo!

After a scream, as expected, Xiao Yan's Eight Extremes Heavenly Fighting Technique, which he was quite confident in, lived up to his expectations. With just one strike, his two fists pierced through the huge fist-shaped demonic beast, the Savage Bull, and the massive beast slowly dissipated.

Xiao Yan advanced with unstoppable momentum, his fist slamming into Xiao Xuanyuan's face.

"Trying to embarrass me again? How interesting."

Xiao Xuanyuan unfurled his magnificent purple cloud wings, leaped into the sky, and dodged Xiao Yan's attack.

Xiao Yan missed his target and slammed his fists into the ground. The hard bluestone ground was dented in two places, and the shape of clenched fists could be vaguely seen.

Do you think you're the only one who can fly?

Xiao Yan stood where Xiao Xuanyuan had stood, raised his head, and stared at Xiao Xuanyuan in mid-air with his tiger eyes, which faintly revealed a fierce flame. "Let me have a go at you!" The dazzling red battle qi on his body continued to gather behind him, and in the blink of an eye, a pair of domineering wings that were burning with fiery red flames were revealed.

"Wow, wings formed from battle qi! They must be at least at the Dou Ling level! Who are these two? We've never heard of them in the inner courtyard!"
