110: Once you reach the King of Fighters' Barrier

Jiang Donghua's gaze was calm, his fingertips gently stroking the jade bottle. His tone was indifferent but carried undeniable certainty.

"I temporarily do not recommend that you two, Liu Qingsi and Lei Lie, consume this item."

Liu Qingsi slightly frowned, her red lips parted as if she wanted to refute him, but Jiang Donghua had already continued.

"Only raising your Dou Ling strength by two or three stars is useless."

Lei Lie's rough face stiffened slightly, a trace of unwillingness flashing in his eyes, but Jiang Donghua's next words made his whole body tremble.

"Xiao Han, I also don't suggest you drink it now."

Xiao Han's originally fervent gaze slightly narrowed, his black eyes fixed firmly on Jiang Donghua, waiting for him to continue.

Jiang Donghua's mouth slightly curved up, his tone low and profound.

"It's best to wait until you feel like you've touched the barrier of the Dou Wang realm, then drink it in one gulp, enduring the refinement of Dou Qi and the burning of your meridians."

"If you endure it, you will have at least an eighty percent chance of stepping into the Dou Wang realm."

Dou Wang!

These two words seemed to carry magic, instantly causing the trio's pupils to contract violently and their breathing to quicken!

Liu Qingsi's fingertips trembled slightly, and deep green Dou Qi uncontrollably coiled around her. She stared intently at the jade bottle in her hand, viewing it as the key to the ultimate realm.

Lei Lie's throat bobbed, and a rare fanaticism appeared on his rough face. The veins on his hand that gripped the jade bottle bulged, as if he feared it might fly away.

As for Xiao Han, this expert known as the "ice demon," a fierce flame actually ignited in his eyes at this moment!

Dou Wang!

Among the top ten of the inner academy strong ranking list, which one wasn't exceptionally talented?

Yet, even so, those who could step into the Dou Wang realm were still few and far between!

And now, Jiang Donghua actually told them that this small bottle of medicinal liquid could give them an eighty percent chance of breaking through to Dou Wang?!

This was no longer just a stroke of luck; this was an opportunity to defy fate itself!

Xiao Han took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart, his voice low and hoarse.

"Brother Jiang, are these words true?"

Jiang Donghua smiled slightly, his gaze profound like an abyss.

"My Master said that this medicinal liquid is named meridian-burning barrier-breaking pill, and it was originally prepared for assaulting major realms."

"If an ordinary Dou Ling takes it, they will at most increase their strength by one or two stars, but if used when breaking through a bottleneck, it can burn away impurities within the body, helping you break through the realm in one go!"

Upon hearing this, the golden light in the trio's eyes almost solidified!

Liu Qingsi's red lips were slightly pursed, and her voice carried a rare trace of trembling.

"Younger Brother Jiang, this medicinal liquid, can it really allow me to step into the Dou Wang realm?"

Jiang Donghua looked at her and nodded gently.

"As long as you can withstand the pain of your meridians being burned."

Lei Lie slammed the table and laughed heartily.

"Hahaha! What is mere pain? As long as I can step into the Dou Wang realm, I'll accept it even if I'm burned to ashes!"

Xiao Han was silent for a moment, then suddenly solemnly cupped his fist towards Jiang Donghua.

"Brother Jiang, Xiao Han will engrave this favor in his heart!"

Jiang Donghua waved his hand and smiled.

"No need for that. We are merely benefiting each other."

"However, I hope the three of you can keep this matter confidential for now."

"After all, if certain people knew that you possess a pill of this caliber..."

His tone shifted, and his gaze suddenly became sharp.

He didn't continue speaking, but all three understood his meaning.

An innocent man is guilty only because he possesses treasure!

If those people in the Inner Academy, or even the geniuses in the top ten of the strong ranking list, knew they had a pill that could help someone break through to Dou Wang, it would instantly attract countless covetous eyes!

Liu Qingsi gave a cold snort, deep green Dou Qi coiling around her like a venomous snake.

"Whoever dares to reach out, I will chop off their claws!"

Lei Lie grinned, fierce light flickering in his eyes.

"Perfect! I've been itching for a fight lately, and I was just worried about having no one to practice on!"

Xiao Han didn't speak, but the bone-chilling coldness that suddenly permeated his surroundings already made his attitude clear.

Jiang Donghua nodded in satisfaction, then stood up.

"Since that is the case, I won't stay any longer."

"Remember, do not consume it rashly before the time is right."

The trio nodded simultaneously, watching him leave.

And after Jiang Donghua's figure completely disappeared outside the door, Liu Qingsi, Xiao Han, and Lei Lie exchanged glances, all seeing an unprecedented fervor in the other's eyes!

Dou Wang!

This realm, once unattainable, was now actually within reach!

A fiery light flashed across the trio's eyes. They tacitly placed the jade bottle into their storage ring; that small medicinal liquid now weighed a thousand jun.

Liu Qingsi's red lips curved slightly, and she lightly flicked her deep green sleeve. She was the first to stand up, her tone carrying a rare hint of gentleness.

"Since Younger Brother Jiang has made the trip from the Outer Academy to the Inner Academy, the three of us should properly see him off."

Xiao Han slightly nodded, the coldness in his ice-blue eyes receding slightly as he said in a deep voice.

"Let's go."

Lei Lie grinned, his rough face full of unrestrained spirit.

"Hahaha! That's exactly what I intended! I'd like to see which blind fool dares to block our way!"

The trio walked side-by-side. Liu Qingsi walked on Jiang Donghua's left side, her deep green Dou Qi coiling like a thin mist, carrying a faint medicinal fragrance that caused the surrounding observing Inner Academy Students to subtly change expression and subconsciously retreat several steps.

Xiao Han walked on the right side, chilling coldness radiating around him. Wherever his feet passed, a thin layer of frost actually condensed on the ground, and even the air seemed frozen.

Lei Lie followed casually behind, his arms crossed over his chest. His sturdy physique was like a moving mountain, and every step he took caused the ground to tremble slightly. Fierce light flickered in his eyes, ready to teach a lesson to anyone foolish enough to cause trouble.

This formation was simply unprecedented!

Within the Inner Academy, countless gazes were cast from the shadows, mixing emotions like shock, confusion, apprehension, and regret.

"Who exactly is that kid? He actually managed to get Liu Qingsi, Xiao Han, and Lei Lie to personally escort him?!"

"Hiss, even the Law Enforcement Team's Gryphon Beast has been mobilized. This treatment is probably not even received by those top five on the strong ranking list?!"

Soon, those with good sources of information found out Jiang Donghua's background.

"Did you hear? That kid is the personal Disciple of Elder Mo Xuan, the fifth-grade alchemist in the Outer Academy's Alchemy Department!"

"What?! Elder Mo Xuan's Disciple?!"

"It is said that he can refine a fourth-grade pill in just one year, and even the Elders of the Inner Academy's Alchemy Department praise him endlessly!"

In an instant, the faces of those Inner Academy Students who had previously mocked Jiang Donghua turned deathly pale!

"We're finished! We were just laughing at him. Didn't we just kick a steel plate?!"

"Damn it! If I had known he was Elder Mo Xuan's Disciple, I would have been too busy sucking up to him!"

"For figures like Liu Qingsi and Xiao Han to be so polite to him, this kid is definitely not simple!"

At this moment, Jiang Donghua stood atop the Gryphon Beast, his robes fluttering, his expression calm.

Liu Qingsi stood beside him, her red lips slightly parted, her tone carrying a rare hint of concern.

"Younger Brother Jiang, please send my regards to Elder Mo Xuan when you return."

Xiao Han also spoke up, a rare occurrence.

"If you ever need anything, send word anytime."

Lei Lie laughed even more heartily.

"Hahaha! Brother Jiang, if you come to the Inner Academy in the future, just give my name directly! Let's see who dares to stop you!"

Jiang Donghua smiled slightly and cupped his fist.

"Thank you, three Senior Brothers and Senior Sister. We shall meet again another day."

The Gryphon Beast flapped its wings and flew high, disappearing into the clouds in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, within the Inner Academy, rumors about Jiang Donghua swept through the entire Jia Nan Academy like a storm!

An Outer Academy Student who could make top ten experts on the strong ranking list personally escort him.

An alchemy genius who could refine a fourth-grade pill at only a dozen years old.

A monstrous existence backed by the fifth-grade alchemist Mo Xuan.

From today onward, no one in the Inner Academy dared to look down upon Jiang Donghua again, and countless people remembered his name!
