Su Wen, traversed to the Douluo Continent and witnessed the helplessness of being unable to control his own destiny as he saw his newfound family perish as mere collateral in the clash of two powerful Titled Douluo. He vowed to avenge the two individuals who had given him a fresh start in life. However, life did not favor him, as he only awakened an ordinary Book Martial Spirit. Undeterred, he refused to be disheartened and, leveraging his unique perception talent, embarked on the journey to transform his martial spirit. An ordinary book martial spirit? No! I will evolve it to an extraordinary Heavenly Book Martial Spirit!
Godwind Academy.
Su Wen handed Huo Tianyang's token to Dean Yun Fei of Godwind Academy.
"So, you want to practice at Godwind Academy for a while?" Yun Fei asked.
"That's right, but if you don't mind, I also hope to exchange ideas with the elite students of your academy," Su Wen said.
He arrived in Godwind City just last night and had fought two battles, but had not replicated the Martial Spirits he desired.
Although replicating more Martial Spirits would burden himself, Su Wen couldn't avoid replication just because of this burden.
When faced with a problem, one must solve it rather than avoid it.
"Oh?" Yun Fei was surprised by Su Wen's confidence. He actually wanted to fight the elite students of Godwind Academy?
"You're fourteen this year?"
"Yes."
"What's your Soul Power level?"
"Thirty-nine."
After learning Su Wen's age and Soul Power level, Yun Fei fell silent, understanding why Huo Tianyang held such high regard for Su Wen.
Fourteen years old, level thirty-nine.
Practicing on the continent now, perhaps a breakthrough could occur during the practice. Even if a breakthrough wasn't achieved during the practice, there was hope to break through after the practice ended by cultivating quietly for a period, likely not exceeding half a year.
By then, he would be a Spirit Ancestor at the age of fourteen.
Creating history on the continent.
"Alright, I'll arrange a friendly match for you," Yun Fei nodded after some thought, not rejecting Su Wen's request for an exchange.
"Dean Yun, since it's mainly for exchange, it won't just be about fighting. There will also be discussions on experiences in developing wind attributes," Su Wen suggested.
Yun Fei glanced at Su Wen, neither rejecting nor directly agreeing.
"If those students themselves don't mind sharing with you, then there's no harm in mutual discussions."
Unlike Huo Tianyang, Yun Fei's approach to Su Wen was more about satisfying his reasonable requests out of respect for Huo Tianyang, without giving him special treatment.
Su Wen didn't mind this.
There was no connection between him and Godwind Academy, so Yun Fei's attitude was understandable.
"Director Mo, I'll leave it to you."
The bald-headed teacher in charge of arranging the friendly match was the head of the academic affairs.
Director Mo received instructions from Yun Fei and promptly arranged the friendly match.
For Godwind Academy, the challenge from external Spirit Masters was a good thing, especially in Su Wen's case.
Regardless of the result of the friendly match, simply Su Wen's current status as a fourteen-year-old with a Soul Power level of thirty-nine was enough to put pressure on those elite students.
"Do you have any specific format in mind for the match?" Director Mo asked in advance.
Su Wen's Soul Power level is actually just right.
Currently, all the students from Godwind Academy who are preparing to participate in the Spirit Master Competition two years later have already reached the level of high-tier Spirit Elders, which is a Soul Power level of thirty-six or above.
Among them, Captain Feng Xiaotian has even reached level thirty-nine early on, with a good chance of breaking through to level forty in the coming months.
In this exchange with Su Wen, Director Mo also hoped to put some pressure on Feng Xiaotian to help him with his breakthrough.
"Let's make it a 1v1 match, and I'll only use my wind elemental control abilities," Su Wen proposed.
Listening to Su Wen's words, Director Mo frowned but remained silent.
He felt like Su Wen's second sentence was implying that he could defeat the elite members of their academy without using his full strength.
"Since it's a friendly match, we should naturally exchange skills in areas where both sides excel," Su Wen added.
Director Mo nodded in agreement and then asked, "Su Wen, which advanced Spirit Master Academy are you currently studying at?"
"Heaven Dou Imperial Academy."
"Heaven Dou Imperial Academy?" Director Mo glanced at Su Wen with surprise, not understanding why Su Wen would study there.
Su Wen didn't explain either, and the two proceeded to the training grounds of Godwind Academy, one after the other.
After Director Mo took Su Wen to arrange the friendly match, Yun Fei sat alone in the Dean's office, lost in thought.
Fourteen years old, Spirit Ancestor.
Even a fifteen-year-old Spirit Ancestor is unheard of on the Continent.
Currently, the strongest genius of Godwind Academy, Feng Xiaotian, is only level thirty-nine at the age of twenty-two. However, Su Wen is now only fourteen years old and also at level thirty-nine.
From awakening his Martial Spirit at the age of six to now, it's been eight years in total. Even if his Soul Power was already full at the beginning, he would still need to increase it by twenty-nine levels, which means he would need to improve by at least three and a half levels every year.
Feng Xiaotian had a full Soul Power from the beginning, yet he only experienced this rate of improvement before reaching level nineteen in the Spirit Master Realm.
Later, upon reaching the Spirit Grand Master level, it's possible to improve by a maximum of three levels in a year, but in most cases, it's only two levels of Soul Power per year.
Of course, part of the reason for this is also due to insufficient external pressure.
"Feng Xiaotian is too distracted by his self-created Spirit Skill, perhaps Su Wen's presence this time will serve as a wake-up call for him," Yun Fei thought to himself.
With Feng Xiaotian's talent, at the age of twenty-two, while he might reach an advanced Spirit Ancestor, there was still hope for him to reach level forty-five Soul Power at least.
However, his dedication to his self-created Spirit Skill has caused him to neglect too much of his Soul Power.
At the training grounds, Director Mo gathered the seven members of Godwind Academy who were preparing to participate in the Spirit Master Competition.
"Xiaotian, this is Su Wen from Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, who has come to our Academy for a friendly match," Director Mo introduced.
"A friendly match?" Feng Xiaotian looked puzzled and asked, pointing at Su Wen, "Is he the only one?"
"Indeed, this time Su Wen will challenge each of you seven individuals in turn," Director Mo nodded.
To pique Feng Xiaotian and the others' interest, Director Mo provided some information about Su Wen: "Don't underestimate Su Wen. He is only fourteen years old this year, but his Soul Power has already reached level thirty-nine."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Feng Xiaotian's previously nonchalant expression became solemn, and he appeared more serious.
The teammates behind Feng Xiaotian also became serious one by one.
...
At Shrek Academy, as Flender watched the six students walk away with backpacks full of rocks, he asked Grandmaster, "Xiaogang, have you received any response from your family?"
Grandmaster's already stiff expression seemed to become even stiffer. He had received a reply from his father, who declined to send Yu Tianheng to Shrek, but did not refuse Grandmaster's request to gather the team.
"Flender, do you know about Blue Tyrant Academy?" Grandmaster asked.
Flender was taken aback, wearing a bewildered expression. Then, seeming to notice something about the name, he joked, "Blue Tyrant Academy, could it be an academy run by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"
"Hmm," Grandmaster's stiff face showed no change in expression as he said, "If it were an academy run by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, what do you think of it?"
"Well, it should be quite impressive," Flender replied, adopting a casual tone.
Grandmaster nodded, not elaborating further.
He planned to gradually reveal his intentions to Flender, making it easier for Flender to accept his plan. Otherwise, merging an academy that had devoted a lifetime of effort into another academy would be something Flender couldn't accept outright.
Putting this matter aside, Grandmaster pondered another piece of information from his father's letter.
