Chapter 322

Hearing this, even Chen Ang was somewhat shocked. "You're reaching the peak of the Ninth Rank so soon? I thought you just had a breakthrough a while ago; how are you breaking through again?"

Wan Wan Wan Shitong couldn't help but burst into laughter. "You might not know what a huge bargain I got this time. The purity of that drop of dragon essence blood was extremely high, and after being enhanced by my flames, it's comparable to the blood of the Primordial Dragon God."

"It doesn't quite reach the level of the Primordial Dragon God's essence blood, but it's still no small feat. After absorbing it, there were faint signs of breaking through to the peak of the Ninth Rank. How about it, are you interested in coming to watch?"

Chen Ang followed Wan Wan Wan Shitong to a mountain peak, where the surroundings had already been secured by people from the Wuqu Academy. This time, Wan Wan Wan Shitong wanted him to observe the breakthrough to understand the differences, which might lead to a better understanding in the future.

As the aura within Wan Wan Wan Shitong's body grew increasingly heavy, a giant dragon's phantom suddenly appeared behind him. The giant dragon let out a roar, and Wan Wan Wan Shitong instantly broke through to the peak of the Ninth Rank.

The aura on his body began to slowly settle. Just as the giant dragon roared, the dragon bloodline within his own body stirred restlessly. The Azure Dragon Moon Spear sensed a threat and began to shake violently, which forced Chen Ang to take it seriously.

He felt that the Wan Wan Wan Shitong before him was terrifying, completely different from the one he usually met, though he couldn't quite put his finger on the feeling. He just felt that the giant dragon phantom was incredibly profound and terrifying, and he felt a deep sense of powerlessness when facing him.

After Wan Wan Wan Shitong woke up and saw Chen Ang's shocked expression, he couldn't help but laugh: "How is it? You can feel it too, right? You must have dragon essence blood in your body; can you resonate with him?"

"There is indeed resonance, but it clearly suppresses the dragon bloodline in my body. What is going on? Explain it to me."

"I can't tell you too much; it's a family secret. But I can tell you that the cultivation technique I practice is a long-lost dragon martial art."

"It requires constantly obtaining dragon essence blood to improve one's strength. The dragon essence blood inside the demon beast I refined at the volcano this time was the main reason for the breakthrough."

"I can clearly feel my own bloodline beginning to undergo a transformation. When I reach the Divine Spirit Realm, there should be a transformation of power. It's very subtle, but still visible to the naked eye. If you don't believe me, try punching me."

Chen Ang, half-doubting, used seven-tenths of his strength to strike Wan Wan Wan Shitong, but there were no signs of injury, which left Chen Ang very shocked.

"As expected of the Dragon Clan, the former masters of the continent; the bloodline is indeed different. Wan Wan Wan Shitong, have you reported this to the academy teachers? You must keep it well hidden."

"Otherwise, if you attract the attention of enemies within the academy and they send people to kill you, it won't be worth the loss."

Wan Wan Wan Shitong laughed: "Don't worry, I understand the situation. The academy teachers know about this too. When I first came to Wuqu Academy, my family had already communicated with the Acting Acting Dean. Besides, who would be interested in an intelligence peddler?"

"Inside Wuqu Academy, I avoid taking action whenever possible. I've long given them the illusion that I have no combat power, so they won't suspect me."

"It can be considered a concealment method provided by my family. How is it? Still quite successful, right? Even you didn't expect me to have such terrifying combat power, let alone others."

"Your family is really cautious. With your constitution paired with this almost perverted technique, cultivation is extremely slow, but the effect is equally obvious."

"Your constitution and cultivation are quite powerful at the peak of the Ninth Rank. It's impossible for anyone of the same level to want to make a move on you. And that mysterious, terrifying flame should also be much stronger than before."

Wan Wan Xingta took out that ball of purple flame, observing that the color of the flame was deeper than before; he believed his strength would be even more formidable, but this was his own secret, and he felt too embarrassed to speak of it.

After Wan Wan Wan Shitong finished his breakthrough and cultivation, the two returned to Wuqu Academy and were called by the Acting Acting Dean to his office. He carefully observed the changes in both of them, feeling it was somewhat incredible.

First, he spoke to Chen Ang: "This time, Wuqu Academy has failed you. We have spent the greatest effort to investigate this matter, but there are no clues."

"It seems that the person behind this is definitely a major family. Being able to wipe away all traces means they are definitely not ordinary people. The academy will provide you with certain compensation and cultivation resources."

"I hope you won't have too many speculations about the academy regarding this matter. We are also working hard to investigate the culprit."

Chen Ang understood that the Acting Acting Dean was genuinely looking out for him, and seeing that the culprit was too cunning, there was nothing he could do.

He comforted him: "Acting Acting Dean, you don't need to worry. Take your time with this matter. I believe that since the assassin wants to kill me, there will be another chance."

"If it doesn't work next time, we can try to lure the snake out of its hole. If the opportunity is created reasonably, they will definitely make a move."

Hearing this from Chen Ang, the Acting Acting Dean suddenly perked up: "Good lad, you still have ideas."

348: Wan Wan Wan Shitong's Identity

The Acting Acting Dean looked at Wan Wan Wan Shitong next to him and couldn't help but laugh: "You must be the lad from the Long family. Your grandfather and I are old acquaintances, so I know a little about your situation."

"Since you've broken through to the peak of the Ninth Rank this time, keep up the good work. Your elders are constantly guarding the Extinction World. As a descendant of the Long family, you should understand the heavy responsibility you bear."

"Now is not the time for you to drop your disguise. Grow steadily within Wuqu Academy. You can graduate from Wuqu Academy within three years once you reach the Divine Spirit Realm."

"By then, you can do whatever you want. You must understand that it's not good to overuse family power when coming to Wuqu Academy. This time counts as a warning."

Wan Wan Wan Shitong said with a smile: "Acting Acting Dean, you know, Chen Ang is my friend. My personal power in the academy is limited, so it was indeed troublesome not to mobilize people from the Long family to help Chen Ang."

"Hmph, what else did you think? If it weren't for the fact that you genuinely helped Chen Ang, and that I owe you both for this matter, do you think I would have turned a blind eye?"

"Next time, watch yourself. Inside Wuqu Academy, no one's every move can escape my eyes."

Wan Wan Wan Shitong teased: "Then what about Chen Ang's matter?"

The Acting Acting Dean couldn't help but pat the table and shouted: "You don't need to worry about this matter; I will solve it. These people don't take me seriously at all, so I don't need to give them any good looks."

"I don't know exactly who they are, but it's nothing more than those few major families. I have already had people secretly keep an eye on them, and any movement will be reported to me in time."

"You two go back first. I will notify you if there is any news. Stay safe within the academy recently. I have strengthened patrols, so there shouldn't be any problems for the time being."

On the other side, Shangguan Canyue was also very unhappy. People from the family head's side came to report: "Young Lady, this matter has caused strong condemnation from the Family Head. He has used many connections for your sake this time. The Family Head hopes you can be more sensible in Wuqu Academy."

"Do not act rashly. The situation inside Wuqu Academy is very strict during this time. If something really goes wrong, he might not be able to save you."

Shangguan Canyue was very angry this time. Hearing her father's criticism, she was burning with rage and shouted: "Fine, I know about this. You go out first. Go back and tell Father that I will definitely stay safe these two days and will absolutely not act rashly."

"But my brother's death must be accounted for. Father may not care about my brother's life or death, but we two siblings have relied on each other for life. I am not reconciled to this."

After her father's people left, a subordinate came to report: "Master, according to the information we obtained, Chen Ang and Wan Wan Wan Shitong have become good friends and have chosen to form an alliance."

"The energy behind this Wan Wan Wan Shitong is immense. Several of our family's subordinates have been discovered. Do you think we need to temporarily withdraw the dead soldiers in the shadows from Wuqu Academy?"

Shangguan Canyue frowned: "What is this Wan Wan Wan Shitong's background? How is the investigation going?"

"According to the intelligence we obtained, this Wan Wan Wan Shitong is extremely mysterious. No one has ever seen him take action, except for achieving a top 100 result during the freshman competition."

"After entering Wuqu Academy, he doesn't go out on missions, nor does he fight with others. He steadily acts as an intelligence peddler. This time, he came forward to inquire about the assassination of Chen Ang."

Shangguan Canyue was very dissatisfied: "What are you all doing? You can't even find out the background of a Wan Wan Wan Shitong. What use are you? Now find a way to inquire. No matter the cost, I want all the information on Wan Wan Wan Shitong."

"Also, reorganize the information. I want to thoroughly figure out if my brother's death has anything to do with Chen Ang. Go do it now."

After the subordinates left, Shangguan Canyue crushed the cup in her hand. Her father's warning not to care about her brother's life or death, and Wan Wan Wan Shitong acting as a troublemaker—did they really think she had no temper? If it really came to it, she would just get rid of Wan Wan Wan Shitong too.

Killing one is killing, killing two is killing; there's no difference. Wuqu Academy looks formidable, but most of the strong experts are not there. It seems she has to think of other ways.

There is a conflict between Wan Wan Xingta and Chen Ang. It seems she has to find a way to make use of that. She must not let Chen Ang live so comfortably.

After the two left the Acting Acting Dean's room, Chen Ang laughed: "Wan Wan Wan Shitong, I didn't expect you to be hidden so deep, being a descendant of the Long family. It is rumored that the Long family are descendants of the Primordial Dragon God. I don't know if this is true?"

Wan Wan Wan Shitong also knew about this and knew there was no point in hiding it, so he nodded and said seriously: "That's right, our Long family is indeed the descendant of the Primordial Dragon God. After so many years of inheritance, the Dragon God bloodline in our bodies is very thin."

"In our generation, I am considered to have a relatively strong Dragon God bloodline, so the family gave me the qualification for free cultivation. Coupled with my astonishing talent, they sent me to Wuqu Academy."

"Wuqu Academy is famous throughout the Extinction World, and the Acting Acting Dean is quite protective of his own. No problems have occurred. Here, I can get a stable cultivation environment. To send me in, my grandfather gave the Acting Acting Dean many good things."

"Being able to cultivate better and make more talented friends, why not? I can be considered the successor of this generation of the Long family, but danger follows, which makes me have to be careful."

"Our Long family has always been upright and unyielding. If we don't like someone, we fight them to the death. Over time, we have offended many enemies in the Extinction World."

"The Acting Acting Dean of Wuqu Academy, the one just now, has a certain connection with our grandfather, which is why he can keep me safe."

The two came to a gravity training room, a place specifically requested by Master Wu Tian. After paying a certain fee, the two entered the gravity testing ground.

Choosing a five-fold gravity training room, Wan Wan Wan Shitong and Chen Ang were fiercely pressed to the ground as soon as they entered, unable to lift their heads. They struggled to support their arms, cold sweat streaming down their bodies.

It stands to reason that both of their bodies had been strengthened and shouldn't have such problems, but they didn't expect to gain no advantage. Chen Ang kept thinking about why the gravity room was so terrifying.

After a period of adaptation, the two could barely stand up. The blood in their bodies seemed to be under some kind of restraint, becoming slow. Their faces were flushed red, and it was extremely difficult to even lift their legs.

This gravity room indeed had some benefits, exercising one's own pressure resistance and adapting to gravity under different conditions. They could clearly feel the pressure of the Divine Spirit Realm. It seems it was intended to exercise physical strength.

349: The Strength of Li Li Batian

Slowly, as the time the two spent in the gravity room grew longer, they could clearly adapt to the five-fold gravity, not as embarrassed as at the beginning. It had a great improvement on their body's pressure resistance.

When the two left the gravity training room, they were blocked by someone: "The two of you just came out of the gravity room. I believe your strength should have improved. I wonder if you two have the time to have a fight with me."

Wan Wan Wan Shitong showed an insidious smile and said: "As for that, I won't participate. If you have anything, go find him to talk about it."

"Hello, my name is Li Li Batian. I have been observing you for a long time outside. The five-fold gravity room is the easiest to master here. Seeing that you could thoroughly master it in such a short time shows that your strength is very formidable."

"I don't have any hobbies usually, I just like to fight with strong people. I wonder if there is this opportunity?"

Chen Ang thought that since he was idle anyway, he agreed to Li Li Batian's request. Seeing that Li Li Batian's eyes were full of purity and there was no intrigue, he should be a martial arts fanatic who practiced specifically.

Wan Wan Wan Shitong on the side reminded: "Chen Ang, you must be careful. He is a famous strong person in the entire Wuqu Academy. His own strength is at the low level of the Ninth Rank, but he has the power to fight against strong people in the Divine Spirit Realm."

"His fighting is different from others. Others will have scruples when fighting, but Li Li Batian is different. He can fight for his life. This kind of madman who is not afraid of death is the most terrifying."

"I will leave this thorny problem to you. I will report to the academy teachers. You two are really amazing. There will be specialized teachers coming to ensure your safety during the competition."

Not long after, a teacher with Divine Spirit Realm cultivation walked over and scolded: "Li Li Batian, what's going on with you? You just came out of solitary confinement and want to fight with others. You don't take me seriously? Get back here."

Li Li Batian said pitifully: "Master, you know what kind of person I am. If I'm not allowed to fight with others for a day, my whole body itches, and I feel uncomfortable and panicked."

"This time, I just happened to have a strong opponent. I want to see where my limit is. During the time of solitary confinement, I feel that my combat experience has improved."

"You are Chen Ang, the first place in this competition, right? Li Li Batian has been a martial arts fanatic since he was a child. This matter is to ask for your opinion on whether you are willing to spar with Li Li Batian."

"If you are unwilling, I can terminate this competition. This kid always acts recklessly and often causes trouble for me."

Chen Ang laughed: "Teacher, don't worry. I will just have a simple spar with Li Li Batian. I can see the purity in Li Li Batian's eyes. Fighting with such a person will also lead to improvement."

The teacher was very happy to see Chen Ang speaking up for Li Li Batian. Wuqu Academy has always been known for its unity, and he didn't want to offend the genius favored by the Acting Acting Dean over this matter.

The current situation is developing in a good direction. For now, there are no major problems. The two stood on the ring, and Chen Ang could clearly feel a restless power in Li Li Batian's body.

Li Li Batian spoke first: "Chen Ang, you must be careful. I will exert my full strength next. Don't underestimate my cultivation at the beginning of the Ninth Rank. This time I will respond with all my strength."

"If there are any problems, my teacher will stop me in time. I hope you can also respect me and fight with me with all your strength."

After speaking, he took out his double-axe weapon. It could also be seen that the material of the double-axe was special, and it would definitely not be easy for an ordinary person to pick it up. Being able to pick it up easily showed that his arm strength was extremely amazing.
