In the audience stands, Flender watched Zhao Ming, who stood tall and proud, his excitent barely contained. After all, this was one of their very own students from Shrek Academy.
"After today, Zhao Ming will earn his Diamond Battle Spirit Badge," Flender took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitent.
"Yes, I didn't expect our Shrek Academy to actually produce a true dragon," Zhao Wuji said, his voice filled with excitent.
"But after today, Zhao Ming and his group will likely attract the attention of the continent's major powers. With the current strength of our Shrek Academy, I fear we won't be able to protect them," Flender suddenly furrowed his brow, a hint of worry appearing on his face.
"That's indeed a problem." Zhao Wuji was taken aback; he hadn't considered this before. If a major power tried to take them, or if their enemies sought to eliminate them due to their extraordinary talents, it would be difficult to handle.
"However, with Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing coming from prominent families, I doubt anyone would be foolish enough to target us," Zhao Wuji said solemnly.
"That's not necessarily true. Even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire have many enemies on the continent. While so forces might hesitate to act against them directly, they wouldn't show the sa restraint with others." Flender shook his head.
"I plan to move the academy to Heaven Dou City and rge with Blue Tyrant Academy," Flender said with a serious expression, and Zhao Wuji could tell he wasn't joking.
"Blue Tyrant Academy?" Zhao Wuji was puzzled, as he hadn't heard much about it.
"Blue Tyrant Academy has recently risen to fa in Heaven Dou City. Although its strength doesn't yet match those long-established academies, it's not to be underestimated. The key is that the head of Blue Tyrant Academy is an old acquaintance of mine, my forr partner, Liu Erlong. Yu Xiaogang is also there now. If we go to Blue Tyrant Academy, we can use our spirit fusion technique. That way, we'll even be able to hold our own against a Titled Douluo."
"Besides, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan is close to Heaven Dou City. In case of danger, we can ask Rongrong to seek help from them."
As Flender spoke, an image of Liu Erlong's charming face flashed through his mind.
Liu Erlong was beautiful, incredibly so. Even now, her enchanting features lingered in his thoughts.
He was the leader of the Golden Iron Triangle. After using their spirit fusion technique together for so many years, how could he not have developed feelings for soone as beautiful and well-built as Liu Erlong?
But... Erlong was never his. She had always loved Xiaogang.
To her, he was just the leader of the Golden Iron Triangle. Always the leader, and nothing more.
Flender's decision to go to Blue Tyrant Academy was partly out of selfishness—because he wanted to see his lovely Erlong.
Erlong was so attractive, so beautiful. But that bastard Yu Xiaogang had failed her. It was sothing Flender found hard to tolerate. The worst part was that, after abandoning her, Yu Xiaogang had the audacity to return and seek her out again. It made him furious.
When Erlong was heartbroken, where was Yu Xiaogang? When she endured the scorn of her family, where was he? Now, after taking on a disciple and suddenly needing her help, he ca back.
It was hard for Flender to accept.
He harbored so resentnt toward Yu Xiaogang. Years ago, he had stepped aside for him when he saw that Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang were deeply in love. But in the end, Yu Xiaogang had run away at the critical mont, leaving her to face their family's ridicule and scorn alone.
So when Flender received Liu Erlong's letter, he felt a wave of frustration.
Erlong had waited for him for so long. Was she really going to be with him again now?
No, he couldn't let it happen. He had to fight for her too.
He had given Yu Xiaogang enough chances. He didn't want to yield anymore. The academy used to be full of old n, so he hadn't minded. But ever since Zhao Ming and the others arrived, watching them with their sweet, young romances, it was impossible not to feel a twinge of envy.
Sotis, when he walked by and saw Zhao Ming and his girlfriend strolling hand in hand through the academy's courtyard, enjoying a leisurely mont together, he couldn't help but think how wonderful it looked.
He longed to walk hand in hand with his Erlong, to stroll around just like that, in leisurely bliss.
Erlong was so beautiful, and her hands must be so soft. How wonderful it would be to hold her hand!
"Xiaogang, I've already given you many chances. But you didn't cherish them, so now, let be the one to take care of her. My beautiful Erlong, I'll fight for you in the future." Flender sighed softly, making up his mind.
"Since you've made your decision, I'll support you no matter what," Zhao Wuji smiled. He agreed with Flender's choice. The recent conversation with Huo Shang had already caught his attention. The facilities at Shrek Academy were too poor, and it was affecting the students' training speed and quality. If they could rge with Blue Tyrant Academy, it would undoubtedly be a good thing.
"I'll discuss this with Li Yusong and Shao Xin tonight. If they agree, I'll head to Heaven Dou City to negotiate the rger. If all goes well, we'll move to Heaven Dou City," Flender said with a smile when Zhao Wuji expressed his support.
"Good." Zhao Wuji nodded.
With everything agreed upon, they both turned their attention back to Zhao Ming and Ning Rongrong.
"Let the match begin!" At that mont, the host loudly announced the start of the Battle Spirit Match.
As the order echoed across the arena, everyone's focus sharpened. All eyes were fixed on Zhao Ming.
At that mont, Zhao Ming was the center of attention.
Every spectator watched Zhao Ming closely, eager to see how he would clinch victory in this Battle Spirit Match.
Under their watchful eyes, Zhao Ming slowly released his martial spirit. Two yellow and one purple spirit rings pulsed around him.
At that mont, whether it was Zhao Ming's opponent or the spectators, everyone saw it clearly. Zhao Ming was indeed a Spirit Elder. With three spirit rings, there was no doubt. However, even though they were all Spirit Elders, Zhao Ming's power was far greater.
So much greater that he didn't even need to use his spirit skills to defeat all his opponents.
Every spectator's gaze was fixed on Zhao Ming. This Diamond Rank promotion match was sothing they could boast about for a lifeti. After all, they had witnessed soone reach Diamond Rank. To them, it was a mont of pride.
Under their eyes, Zhao Ming moved.
The sa ghostly figure, the sa terrifying aura. Even though this was the strongest Spirit Master team in the Great Spirit Arena, they posed no threat to him whatsoever.
In less than a minute, all his opponents were on the ground due to Zhao Ming's martial spirit.
"The Invincible Team is incredible!"
"The Invincible War God is truly powerful."
"So handso! I wish I could be carried like that, too. Whether I get the Diamond Badge or not doesn't matter; I just want a sweet romance."
Watching Zhao Ming's invincible display, the audience erupted in cheers.
Many won gazed at Zhao Ming with admiration.
On the Douluo Continent, strength ultimately ruled. Zhao Ming, an unparalleled genius with a Diamond Battle Spirit Badge, naturally attracted attention.
One could say that if he crooked his finger now, ninety-nine percent of the girls in Soto City would willingly throw themselves at him. However, Zhao Ming had no interest in these girls. His woman had to be one in a million—a truly exceptional lady worthy of his pursuit and love.
