Chapter 38: The Contention of the Five Elements Academy

"Dad, Brother Qin Jian has already obtained the highest-level qualification, can we not keep fighting anymore?"

Seeing Qin Jian in the screen being forced into a sorry state, Ning Rongrong tugged at Ning Fengzhi's clothes and said incessantly: "There's simply no need to continue..."

Ning Fengzhi kept his gaze on the light screen, then slowly said: "Rongrong... we know it can already stop... but Qin Jian himself doesn't know that..."

"Ah?"

Ning Rongrong's eyes widened: "Then does he still think he hasn't passed Level 9? Why won't he give up yet, that Soul Beast is just too strong!"

Ning Fengzhi shook his head, his gaze following Qin Jian's figure closely, and he murmured: "Qin Jian seems to want to give you the best, so he won't give up easily..."

"Then what should we do..." Ning Rongrong's heart tightened.

Behind her, Jian Douluo's indifferent gaze suddenly fell upon the Education Committee Member Meng Shenji, and a flash of Sword Light seemed to pass through his eyes...

Meng Shenji suddenly felt an aura lock onto him, and hurriedly turning his head to look, he met Jian Douluo's emotionless gaze.

His whole body trembled, feeling that something was terribly wrong...

Fortunately, at this moment, the changes within the light screen attracted Jian Douluo's attention; Qin Jian was seen repeating his old trick, climbing onto the dragon's head and fiercely stabbing his martial soul Sword into the giant dragon's brain!

"He, he, he... he succeeded again!"

Someone outside exclaimed, immediately sparking a wave of discussion.

But soon, a Level 27 giant dragon reappeared before Qin Jian...

And then Level 28... Level 29...

There was no more sound outside; everyone stared fixedly at the screen before them.

They had no way to describe their feelings; Level 20 soul power defeating Level 29, what kind of talent and perseverance was this...

Clearly, the youth inside the light screen was already in rags, clearly he had already exhausted his soul power, clearly he was already panting so hard he couldn't even stand steady...

Yet he simply refused to give up...

Why on earth must he persist like this?

Huo Wu, Shui Bing'er, and even Dugu Yan all cast envious gazes toward Ning Rongrong.

Because Qin Jian wasn't fighting for his own life; he was doing it to give Ning Rongrong the best!

And at this moment, the scene returned to its original state, the giant dragon climbed back up, and even expanded by a circle.

Because this time, it was Level 30!

Qin Jian stood up shakily, once again grasping his martial soul Sword in his hand...

"Education Committee Member! We don't want to continue the challenge!"

At this time, Ning Rongrong finally couldn't help but run up and say to Meng Shenji: "Education Committee Member, quickly let him out, we don't want to challenge anymore!"

Meng Shenji resisted the urge to look at Jian Douluo's chilling gaze, and only said gently to Ning Rongrong: "I cannot forcibly interrupt, that would cause damage to Qin Jian, unless he chooses to give up on his own, or fails."

But at this moment, Ning Rongrong could no longer care about what Meng Shenji was saying, because inside the light screen, Qin Jian, who had already exhausted his soul power, continued to face the giant dragon with Level 30 strength!

He was easily sent flying dozens of meters, but he still climbed up time and time again to meet it...

"Such persistence is moving!"

"Indeed, no matter how great the talent, without persistence, there will be no high achievements."

The other two Education Committee Members sighed.

"He has reached his limit this time..." Meng Shenji said.

Qin Jian was seen being sent flying again inside the light screen, but this time he was unable to stand up immediately.

The giant dragon opposite him, seeing his struggling appearance, actually didn't rush to attack, just waiting there...

"Rongrong... I must give you... the best..."

Qin Jian's hands trembled as he pushed himself up from the ground, bit by bit, once again, standing shakily before the giant dragon.

Outside, there was dead silence.

Inside, the wind had temporarily ceased.

"Roar! ——"

"Ah! ——"

The next moment, the giant dragon roared, and Qin Jian let out a battle cry!

The ferocious giant maw bit down toward Qin Jian's thin, small body in an instant, and everyone held their breath.

And at this moment, a flash of Purple Sword Light suddenly lit up on Qin Jian's body as he rushed up shakily...

Then!

His body turned into Sword Light, fiercely flying into the giant dragon's maw!

"Man-Sword Unity!"

Jian Douluo's eyes widened slightly.

Inside the screen, Qin Jian's figure disappeared, completely swallowed by the giant dragon.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

But the next instant, several streaks of Sword Light pierced through the giant dragon's body and burst out, looking like a giant egg radiating light.

Then, it exploded with a boom!

"Boom!"

The screen was once again completely covered by scattering branches and dust.

Outside, the light of the entire Mimicry Cultivation Ground finally gradually dimmed...

"He actually really managed to slay a Level 30 strength Soul Beast with Level 20 soul power, amazing! Truly amazing!"

Huyan Li's resonant voice woke everyone up.

Subsequently, the sound of discussion erupted like a mountain torrent.

"Don't forget, he didn't challenge Level 30 directly, he fought his way through from Level 25!" Yu Tianxin suddenly said.

Huo Wu and Feng Xiaotian were both silent.

"I didn't expect that he would actually win in the end, and win so thoroughly..."

Huo Wu murmured: "This kind of strength and perseverance makes me feel... admiration... I should apologize for what I said yesterday..."

Feng Xiaotian became anxious upon hearing this: "Huo Wu, at least our soul power is higher than his. That was a Soul Beast after all; even if it had Level 30 strength, it couldn't unleash the power of a Level 30 Spirit Master. If he were fighting me, I could defeat him easily!"

Who would have thought Huo Wu would glance at him coldly and say: "Are you happy about defeating someone 10 levels lower than yourself?"

Feng Xiaotian: "Uh..."

"Hum!"

A soft sound, unremarkable, yet it made everyone quiet down.

Then they saw Qin Jian wearing tattered clothes, moving out step by step...

"Brother Jian!"

Ning Rongrong called out this name with extreme naturalness.

If this form of address carried some teasing at the beginning, now it came from the heart.

She rushed up anxiously, but stopped just as she was about to touch Qin Jian; she didn't pounce on him as usual, but instead hurriedly took his arm to support his swaying body.

"Are you okay? Brother Jian?" Ning Rongrong looked up and asked worriedly.

Qin Jian pulled at the corners of his mouth with difficulty, then said: "Rongrong, I'm fine... we..."

Before he could finish his sentence, his vision suddenly went black, and a sturdy figure suddenly blocked his view: "You are Qin Jian, right? Our Elephant Armor Academy invites you to join, with the highest level of treatment!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was as if a stone had been thrown into a lake, and the entire crowd began to stir.

A teacher from Thunder Academy was the second to arrive in front of Qin Jian: "Qin Jian, our Thunder Academy invites you to join. Elephant Armor Academy is not suitable for you; they focus on defense. You have high attack, so you will perform better coming to our academy."

Next was Blazing Academy: "Qin Jian, join Blazing Academy. Although our academy mainly recruits students with fire-type martial souls, as an embodiment of extreme attack power, you can fully integrate into it."

"If we are talking about suitability, our Shenfeng Academy is even better. With the bonus to Speed, your attack power will be fully unleashed." Shenfeng Academy was not to be outdone.

Watching the teachers of the four great academies arguing in a mess, everyone was dumbfounded...
