89: Blazing Academy

The hazy moonlight sprinkled upon the giant flame sculpture, reflecting the general outline of the manor.

Step, step—

Hurried footsteps shattered the silence of the dark night.

A group of people rushed out of the dormitories, looking like they were on fire, as if an earthquake had occurred, making the ground tremble.

??

What is everyone doing??

A junior looked at all this in confusion, his instinct to join the excitement making him stop someone.

Let's go, hurry and watch the show!

Someone is going to soul duel with Senior Fire Dance and them, if we don't go now it'll be too late!

This made the junior's mind go blank.

Soul duel?

Soul dueling with Senior Fire Dance and them?

You must be joking!!

Huo Wu and Fire Wu Shuang are famous geniuses of Blazing Academy, and also the captain and vice-captain of the best seven-person team.

It is rumored that within this year, they are very likely to break through to Soul Grandmaster.

That's a Soul Grandmaster!

An eighteen or nineteen-year-old Soul Grandmaster!!

Even looking across the entire Heavenly Dou City, the number of young people who can defeat this brother and sister pair will not exceed the number of fingers on one hand.

Who is so bold as to come here and challenge them?

Could it be geniuses from the other four great elemental academies?

Carrying a restless mind, the young junior also joined the crowd and rushed towards the DouHun Stage in the west.

Blazing Academy is not located within Heavenly Dou City; this place is just the academy's temporary office.

Because many students come to Heavenly Dou City for training and study, this place is well-equipped, equivalent to a branch campus.

Before even getting close, the bright light illuminated the area.

The surrounding soul guide lamps had been turned on, and the thirty-meter-long and wide DouHun Stage was now as bright as day.

Many people had already gathered here.

Phew... Good, good, it hasn't started yet, right?

No, what's going on, are there only two opponents?!

Damn it, they dare to cause trouble here with just two people, we could drown them with just one spit each!

...

Shut up, everyone watch quietly.

As an older senior coldly spoke, everyone dared not speak further and quickly found positions to watch the battle.

The DouHun Stage was brightly lit, shining like a piece of pure white jade in the dark night.

Huo Wu! Huo Wu!

Blazing, sure win, Blazing, sure win!

...

But seeing Huo Wu and Fire Wu Shuang standing proudly, with faint smiles on their lips, they seemed to not put the two people before them in their eyes.

It's not too late for you to surrender now...

As Huo Wu raised her hand, the surroundings instantly fell silent, the gazes of everyone looking up made Huo Wu's vanity explode, like an arrogant queen bestowing alms upon beggars.

I can allow you to kneel and apologize, and let this matter go today.

Otherwise, if you crawl out of here later, that appearance won't look very good on you!

Su Ye shrugged with a relaxed expression, "A dignified Blazing Academy, do they like to talk their enemies to death so much?"

I think you don't need to cultivate anymore, just practice your mouth instead, that would be more convenient.

Huo Wu gritted her teeth, her fierce gaze wishing she could tear someone into eight pieces.

Alright, alright!

Since that's the case, you brought this upon yourself!

Fire Wu Shuang's eyes reminded Huo Wu to calm down and avoid gossip, then he said to Su Ye and the other person:

Blazing Academy never bullies the few with the many. Since there are only two of you, my sister and I will fight you. It will be a two-on-two match to decide the winner, stopping before causing serious harm.

Let me speak plainly first, whoever loses later will slap themselves in the face in front of everyone as an apology to the other party.

Su Ye looked around and said with a smile, "Everyone here is from your Blazing Academy. If you have to slap yourselves, it would truly be too embarrassing."

How about this instead? Whoever loses will dress up as a beggar and beg for a day in Heavenly Dou City...

As for beggars, you don't need to show your face, and you can even get some extra money to buy medicine to cure your arrogant brains.

Hiss...

Such arrogant words caused everyone present to widen their eyes, their hearts almost stopping.

Beggar?

Make Senior Fire Dance dress up as a beggar?

And say her brain has a problem??

Everyone's first reaction was that Su Ye was crazy, wondering how this person dared to say such words.

Senior Fire Dance is the favored daughter of Blazing Academy, the proud goddess high up in the hearts of countless people.

This person... is he not afraid of death?

Everyone stole a glance, looking at Huo Wu's gloomy, dripping expression, and couldn't help but start mourning for Su Ye and the other person.

The last people who gossiped about Senior Fire Dance behind her back had their legs broken; this time, their bones must be completely dismantled.

Alright—!

It will be as you wish!!

With fire in her eyes, Huo Wu resolutely agreed; she absolutely could not lose.

Seeing the situation like this, Fire Wu Shuang also didn't say anything further.

On the DouHun Stage, the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

Around... the wind stopped, sounds ceased.

Su Ye glanced at his side, and Zhu Zhuqing also immediately understood, coming to the side on her own.

She also wanted to meet the so-called prodigies of Heavenly Dou City. Since Su Ye didn't want her to act, then she wouldn't act. It was also indeed inconvenient for her while wearing a skirt.

Huo Wu frowned coldly, "What do you mean by this?"

Su Ye replied simply and clearly, "Don't understand? It means fighting the two of you doesn't require both of us to act together."

I alone am enough.

Fire Wu Shuang's eyes suddenly widened, his calm gaze seemed to freeze into ice.

Kid, you're too arrogant!

Swish, Fire Wu Shuang's figure suddenly darted out, raising his fist and smashing towards Su Ye. His fist glowed red, like a searing hot iron.

Bang—

A hard collision sound rang out.

The terrifying punch stopped thirty centimeters in front of Su Ye. A fiery red energy wall suddenly appeared, even threatening to push him back.

!

Fire Wu Shuang was startled internally and immediately increased his strength, but this punch that could split gold and break jade still couldn't advance any further.

Just by releasing soul power externally, he can actually block my punch.

This guy does have some strength, no wonder he's so arrogant.

Fire Wu Shuang's gaze sharpened, and he immediately pulled back.

But seeing red flames rising from his body, condensing into a dragon-shaped mark behind him, his skin was covered by scorching dark red scales, and the most obvious was the three-inch long single horn on top of his head.

Martial Soul, Monoceros Blazing Dragon, one of the fire-attribute sub-dragon species.

Kid, open your eyes wide and watch carefully, a Soul Master speaks with their Martial Soul!

Fire Wu Shuang's fists collided, flames blazed around him, and the violent air currents seemed ready to ignite the surrounding vegetation at any moment.

Is that so?

Su Ye curled his fingers, "You can try again."

Fire Wu Shuang didn't hold back. His arms were covered by a layer of scales, revealing a pair of dominant fists covered in fiery scales.

Bang—

Flames shot out like arrows, and an incredibly terrifying punch fell like a meteor. With this punch, Fire Wu Shuang felt he had already used his full strength.

But strangely, the fist still stopped a foot in front of Su Ye, unable to advance any further.

After throwing several more punches, they were still useless. Fire Wu Shuang's expression froze, and when he glanced at Su Ye's seemingly smiling and relaxed expression, a sense of unease immediately arose in his heart.
