A few minutes later, outside the gate of Shrek Academy.
A blinding blue light suddenly flashed across the sky, like a falling meteor. It instantly crashed into the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust. As the dust settled, Liu Erlong stood firmly in place. Not far in front of her were two other people: a refined middle-aged man and a white-haired elder.
"Who do we have here? It's School Master Ning and Sword Douluo. May I ask what brings you two here?" When Liu Erlong saw the two, her eyes narrowed. Though she was furious, she had to control her temper a little.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has two Titled Douluo. Whenever the Sect Master leaves, one must stay behind to guard against attacks from hostile forces. Last time, Bone Douluo Gu Rong was with Ning Fengzhi. This time, it was Sword Douluo's turn.
Seeing Liu Erlong, Ning Fengzhi frowned slightly. He stepped forward, his gaze sharpening as he immediately recognized her.
"I didn't expect Blue Tyrant Academy to merge with Shrek Academy. Is your Academy's Flender here? I have something to discuss with him."
The Blue Tyrant Academy is located in Heaven Dou City, and the power backing it is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Ning Fengzhi often travels to Heaven Dou City, so he was naturally familiar with the various forces there.
Liu Erlong was about to answer when a loud, clear eagle cry suddenly echoed from the sky.
Flender's massive wings were spread wide, and he was flying toward them at an astonishing speed. On the forest path not far behind him, Yu Xiaogang (Grandmaster) was also running over, heavily panting.
Flender landed smoothly, walked directly in front of Liu Erlong, and then bowed slightly. He cupped his hands toward Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo and said respectfully, "I apologize for not coming out to greet School Master Ning and Sword Douluo. I didn't know you would grace us with your presence."
Ning Fengzhi hadn't spoken yet when Sword Douluo, standing beside him, let out a cold snort. His tone carried a rare sense of oppression as he demanded, "What exactly did your Shrek Academy do to Rongrong?"
Flender looked utterly bewildered. He glanced at Liu Erlong and then back at Sword Douluo. "Senior, what do you mean by that?"
Ning Fengzhi's face darkened slightly, a hint of anger in his voice. "Rongrong returned to the Sect not long ago. I personally examined her body and found she had lost a lot of life force, yet she had no external injuries. You tell me, what in the world happened?"
"How could... this be ?" Flender was instantly shocked by the mention of "life force loss". His face was filled with disbelief, and his voice trembled. He kept repeating the words to himself.
Suddenly, the image of a golden-haired woman holding a golden long spear flashed into Flender's mind. But after careful thought, he realized Ning Rongrong hadn't had any contact with that golden-haired woman.
Just as Flender sank into deep thought, Sword Douluo suddenly stomped his foot. A surging wave of spirit power swept out, instantly forcing Flender and Liu Erlong back several steps.
Sword Douluo's voice was low and dangerous. "If you don't give an explanation today, don't blame me for bullying the weak!"
Just then, Yu Xiaogang finally arrived. He ran to the front, panting heavily, and raised his hand.
"School Master Ning, this matter has nothing to do with our Academy , and I truly don't know what happened to Ning Rongrong's body! You may be the Sect Master of a powerful sect, but Erlong and I are still members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. We are all part of the Upper Three Sects , so you can't just pin everything on us!" Yu Xiaogang protested.
Hearing this, Sword Douluo's expression instantly changed , and he angrily shouted, "Good! Things have come to this, and you still dare to shirk responsibility and not give Fengzhi and me an explanation! In that case, I will flatten Shrek today!"
After he spoke, an extremely sharp aura swept out from Sword Douluo's body. The powerful pressure felt as if it could tear space apart. If Flender and Liu Erlong hadn't been shielding Yu Xiaogang, that pressure alone would have been enough to rip him to shreds.
Ning Fengzhi saw this and didn't speak, only giving a slight nod to Sword Douluo beside him. His daughter was his absolute bottom line. So what if Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong were from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Ning Fengzhi wasn't afraid! If the people of Shrek Academy couldn't give him a reasonable explanation today, he would definitely cleanse Shrek with blood, even if it meant making an enemy of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Seeing that Ning Fengzhi had already given his consent, a sharp glint flashed in Sword Douluo's eyes.
The very next second, he raised his hand and lightly clenched it. A pure blue longsword appeared in his grasp. At the same time, nine spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—swirled up from beneath his feet. The immense pressure instantly froze the three of them—Flender, Liu Erlong, and Yu Xiaogang—making them completely motionless. A trace of blood even leaked from the corner of Yu Xiaogang's mouth.
"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, don't go too far! Don't think our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is afraid of you !" Seeing Yu Xiaogang injured, Liu Erlong's face darkened instantly, and she spoke coldly.
As she spoke, she and Flender exchanged glances. The two of them simultaneously pulled Yu Xiaogang, shielding him firmly behind them. Immediately, the three formed an inverted triangular formation.
"Sun and Moon Radiance, Golden Transformation !" Flender roared.
Immediately, an incredibly intense golden light burst from his body. The same golden light also appeared on Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong. In just a moment, a golden triangle formed in front of the gate of Shrek Academy. At the innermost point of the triangle was a golden Dragon head imprint, surrounded by various complex patterns.
In an instant, three streams of spirit power intertwined and converged, forming a brilliant golden light pillar that shot straight into the sky. It was like three dazzling meteors meeting in mid-air.
"Luo San Pao!"
As Yu Xiaogang let out a low shout, the chubby Luo San Pao—a beast that resembled a mix of a pig and a dog—instantly appeared on the golden Dragon head imprint beneath their feet. Immediately after, the spirit rings from all three of them, a total of sixteen light rings, floated out and enveloped Luo San Pao's body.
"Roar—"
As the spirit rings continued to merge, Luo San Pao's aura instantly surged. It let out a powerful Dragon roar toward the sky, causing the surrounding low-level Spirit Masters to experience ringing in their ears. Its chubby body began to swell dramatically under the load of the sixteen spirit rings , and in an instant, it transformed into a massive golden giant Dragon.
At this moment, near the East Gate of Heaven Dou City. A white-haired elder had just entered the city. He was Yu Luomian, Liu Erlong's father and Yu Xiaogang's uncle.
Looking at the golden light pillar soaring into the sky, accompanied by the deafening Dragon roar, Yu Luomian's face instantly changed, and he cursed angrily.
"This... this seems to be Erlong and that beast's Spirit Fusion Skill? Beast, oh beast, this beast is actually with Erlong! Today, I will definitely cripple him !" With that, his figure flickered, and he accelerated toward the direction of the golden light.
At the same time, in a high pavilion at Heaven Dou Royal Academy. A green-robed elder was conversing in a low voice with a blue-clad youth. Suddenly, their attention was drawn by the golden light pillar soaring into the sky. Both of them froze simultaneously, then exchanged glances, their brows furrowing slightly.
The green-robed elder narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "These two auras... one of them seems to be Sword Douluo Chen Xin."
He turned his head to look at the blue-clad youth beside him, his eyes showing a hint of excitement and solemnity. "Kid, do you think we should go and take a look?"
