Chapter 151 - Chapter 151: The Crimson-Haired Youth

In the blink of an eye, over a year and a half had passed since the establishment of Tianwen Academy, and now only half a month remained until the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Tournament.

Tianwen Academy had firmly established itself in Heaven Dou City, becoming renowned far and wide. However, as with any growth, there were some setbacks. For example, they had caught more than ten thieves. The Pure Yuan Gong and the meridian theories significantly enhanced a spirit master's cultivation, and everyone knew that Gu Yi possessed even more powerful techniques. However, attempts to steal them were ultimately in vain.

The basic cultivation methods had been shared, and the theories had been taught. From this point, it was up to individuals to progress on their own—something not easily appreciated if simply handed over without effort.

Now 17 years old, Gu Yi had already reached the seventieth level in his cultivation as a spirit master. The spirit core had accelerated his cultivation speed far beyond his expectations, constantly absorbing the world's energy to enhance his power—it was like a cheat code for cultivation.

After eleven years of cultivation, he had finally reached the first major milestone in the spirit master system, a critical one. He had reached the seventieth level a month ago but hadn't yet found the right spirit beast to obtain. However, he wasn't in a hurry—he still needed more time to consolidate his foundation. Whether in terms of spirit power, physique, or spiritual strength, he was still a bit short of fully absorbing the spirit beast he had in mind.

After all, a spirit beast with a cultivation of a million years isn't something easily absorbed. Moreover, seizing that silkworm was no simple task, even now. A meticulous plan was necessary.

But aside from this, Gu Yi was even more focused on the upcoming All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Tournament. Although the number of students at Tianwen Academy had increased, aside from Dugu Yan and the other six, there were still no students who could hold the spotlight. However, that didn't really matter; with his Nirvana Flame, he could easily heal any injuries.

Half a month later, in the capital of the Tiandou Empire, Heaven Dou City, all participating teams had gathered. Oscar and the other seven were quite excited—after all, in this primitive world, gathering so many spirit masters was a rare sight. Aside from the battlefield, such a congregation could probably only be seen at the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Tournament.

"Dean Flender!" Oscar shouted, catching the attention of the others, as most of them were from Shrek Academy.

Gu Yi also looked over, but his gaze was different from the others. His eyes were focused on a cold, emotionless youth with dark red hair—a rather handsome young man. However, Gu Yi felt something was off about his aura, something murky. After a brief glance, he shifted his gaze to Yu Xiaogang and the others.

Yes, Yu Xiaogang had returned. After leaving so decisively before, he had now shamelessly come back. He truly lived up to his title as the Grandmaster. Then there was Liu Erlong, whom he often saw as she helped with many tasks. Lastly, Gu Yi's gaze fell on Flender. He no longer held any special feelings for Flender; the once mentor-like relationship had long faded, and now he was just someone he knew.

Flender and the others also noticed them. "Hmm?" Gu Yi sharply looked at the dark red-haired youth, sensing a faint killing intent from him—so faint that an ordinary person wouldn't notice it. He was sure he didn't know this youth. "Things are getting interesting," Gu Yi thought of a possibility. If it was as he imagined, then this would indeed be fun. However, he was puzzled as to why Xiao Wu was no longer close to him. And her current cultivation level surprised Gu Yi—thirty-seventh rank.

Her cultivation wasn't much to look at, but considering that this was achieved after he had sealed her bloodline, her progress was quite fast. Although she couldn't compare to Zhu Zhuqing and the others, her cultivation speed was similar to that of a spirit master with full innate spirit power.

On the other hand, Dai Mubai's cultivation level was only forty-two, already falling behind Ma Hongjun and Oscar. He hadn't obtained what he sought at Shrek Academy. Flender noticed Gu Yi and the others and intended to greet them, but Yu Xiaogang dragged him away. "Registration is more important."

Gu Yi didn't mind—they were no longer on the same path.

The opening ceremony ended quickly. Their first match was against Purple Star Academy, which was only briefly mentioned in the original story. Unfortunately for Purple Star, they didn't make it past the first round. The match was over in less than a minute, without even forcing Dugu Yan and the others to show their true abilities. It was entirely a breeze for them.

Gu Yi's attention wasn't on the match, though—it was on Shrek Academy. While he had some guesses about the identity of the dark red-haired youth, he needed to see it for himself to make a final judgment. Shrek Academy faced the Heaven Dou Royal Academy again, but this time, they couldn't replicate the miracle created by Dugu Yan and the others before. With their levels not significantly higher, Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, and the others, along with Tai Long, struggled even against the pampered noble children.

"Just as I thought, it's you, Tang San," Gu Yi muttered, watching the dark red-haired youth use blood-red vines with horrifying spikes. Although the martial spirit had changed drastically, Gu Yi recognized the youth's identity—Tang San, who had been missing for a long time. It seemed the poison techniques of the Tang Sect were indeed powerful. Having confirmed his suspicions, Gu Yi lost interest in watching further. Surviving once was no big deal—he could kill him again if necessary.

Tang San, standing on the stage, glanced toward the audience but only saw Gu Yi's back. "Your power will soon be mine," Tang San thought, a flash of greed in his eyes as he subconsciously licked his lips as if savoring something.

In a corner of Heaven Dou City, a dried-up corpse lay on the ground, its death terrifyingly grim, with a look of utter horror frozen on its face.

The preliminary matches continued. Tianwen Academy was unstoppable, with no team able to stand in their way, especially with their captain, Dugu Yan, who had fully inherited the essence of the Poison Douluo. Her unrivaled poison skills instilled fear in all the participants.

Finally, the world began to realize that Tianwen Academy not only possessed the most advanced techniques but also the best teaching. Geniuses might be rare, but with the vastness of the Douluo Continent, there were enough geniuses to go around—yet no other academy had produced students as powerful as these.

The developments had even frightened Salas into quickly reporting back, only to receive a handwritten letter from Bibi Dong herself: "All is normal. Proceed as planned."
