This is a translation. "A descendant of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practitioners, Gu Yi, finds himself transported into the world of Douluo Continent, where he awakens to the martial spirit most familiar to him from his past life. Will he be able to leverage his own advantages and dominate the continent? Which is stronger, martial arts or spirit skills? Will he assist characters such as the arrogant Phoenix Ma Hongjun, the carefree White Tiger Dai Mubai, the Asura God Tang San, the threatening Ning Rongrong, and the willful Xiao Wu in becoming exemplary figures of the new era? It remains to be seen."

Chapter 99: Domineering Declaration

Tang Yuehua had never been fed like this before, as if she was like a child. The key point was that she was currently unclothed, not daring to let go of the bedsheet and only revealing her head. After all, Gu Yi looked no different from last night. If it happened again, she might really die.

"Stay in the room and rest well today. Take good care of your body. I'll come to check on you tonight," Gu Yi said, placing the bowl by the bedside with concern.

"Got it," Tang Yuehua nodded timidly. Last night had been a significant shock for her, revealing a completely different side of Gu Yi, entirely unlike his usual self.

"Hurry and leave. The academy's enrollment has just started. The Dean's presence is indispensable" Tang Yuehua said understandingly, realizing Gu Yi couldn't stay with her today. Besides, she was a spirit master herself, though the intense "battle" last night had been overwhelming, especially since it was her first time. With the medicinal porridge, half a day of rest would suffice.

Gu Yi smiled at Tang Yuehua, appreciating her understanding. Tenderly brushing her hair aside, he declared domineeringly, "You're my woman. You don't need to worry about your strength. I'll take care of everything. You belong to me for life, and there's no escaping."

Even without the God Of Evil's legacy, Gu Yi was confident in helping Tang Yuehua grow stronger. Now that he had received the legacy, it was even more certain. He could even take her to ascend to godhood in the future. In the Douluo Continent, where extraordinary powers existed, age differences were the least of concerns. A gap of tens or even hundreds of years was insignificant, let alone just a decade or two.

"Hmm," Tang Yuehua nodded, her face showing a sweet expression. She had already been shaped by him; there was no one else she could follow.

Gu Yi then left. Outside Tianwen Academy, it was already packed with people. Bibi Dong's words from yesterday had been more effective than any other promotions. To these civilian spirit masters, the Spirit Hall was sacred and inviolable. Becoming a part of it was their lifelong dream.

Seeing so many people at the start, Gu Yi was startled. So, this was the effect of fame. He wondered how many would succeed today.

As he had done yesterday, Gu Yi stood at the academy gate and released his Evil Domain. With the previous demonstration, everyone now knew about the mysterious force that could influence their minds and stir up their deepest, darkest desires. They didn't hesitate, rushing into the Evil Domain all at once.

Three days passed quickly, and the academy's enrollment finally ended. With the student matters temporarily settled, it was time to assess the teachers.

"For the teachers at Tianwen Academy, the selection process is different from other academies. We've divided it into liberal arts and martial arts," Gu Yi explained.

The group on the academy grounds was puzzled. What were liberal arts and martial arts? They had never heard of such a distinction.

Gu Yi briefly introduced the differences between the two. "Alright, make your choice."

Soon, the groups were divided. Three-quarters chose martial arts, while only a few opted for the other option, most of them being auxiliary spirit masters from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.

"With the choices made, let's begin the second round of assessments," Gu Yi said, distributing prepared test papers to the liberal arts group before addressing the martial arts group, "Follow me. I'll comprehensively evaluate your combat capabilities."

The mention of combat excited the martial arts group. After all, spirit masters were meant for battle. Who would bother talking nicely in the outside world?

However, they soon regretted it. Despite his age, the young dean's strength was terrifyingly formidable, without a single flaw to be found. Not that it was a significant issue since the highest level among them was only a Spirit Emperor, with spirit power not surpassing Gu Yi's. The rest were around the fiftieth level, making it impossible to defeat the overwhelmingly powerful Gu Yi.

Gu Yi was once again disappointed with this world's combat methods, finally selecting the seven most adaptable and battle-capable individuals.

"Feng Fen, Zhao Xiang, Yang Yi... Gan Xingmao and the other six, welcome to Tianwen Academy. The rest of you, I'm sorry, but you did not meet the academy's requirements and must leave."

The rejected candidates didn't cause a scene. Not only because of the academy's powerful backing but also due to the dean's unfathomable strength. They knew causing trouble would only result in dire consequences.

"Alright, let's see how the others fared," Gu Yi said. After so much fighting, those who could finish had already done so. For those who couldn't, more time wouldn't help.

Gu Yi was pleased with the six liberal arts candidates. They had performed well, displaying a wealth of knowledge. Even Oscar, whom Gu Yi had personally trained, couldn't compare to them in terms of knowledge.

"Excellent. For the next four days, I'll teach you a new cultivation method and a set of training theories. Your job is to pass them on to the students as I teach you," Gu Yi announced.

Under their astonished gazes, Gu Yi became their teacher, imparting upon them the meridian theories. He had already planned for the potential exposure. The Pure Yuan Gong had been given to Bibi Dong, and soon everyone on the Douluo Continent would know about it. However, the version he provided was a limited one, unable to generate spirit power through independent cultivation.

Yes, even in this world, inner strength can be cultivated without generating spirit power. He hadn't revealed this secret to anyone. With the assistance of someone with strong spirit power and control, those without natural spirit power could develop it.

Gu Yi didn't intend to share this just yet; the time wasn't right. However, the teachings would help spirit masters with weaker martial spirits progress faster, potentially surpassing those with higher-level martial spirits. Inner strength cultivation emphasized comprehension; the higher the understanding and the control of spirit power, the faster the cultivation speed. For instance, without his previous life experience with the Mysterious Heaven Technique, Tang San would have never perfected it by the age of six. Advanced techniques were inherently harder to master than basic ones.
