Dragon Tamer

Chapter 379: Chapter 381: Challenge the Peak!
Absorbing sunlight and transforming it into light feathers.

As fiercely hot as the blazing sun, it endowed the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon with the majesty of the scorching sun, both imposing and domineering!

Against three opponents, the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon went from initially dodging and weaving to directly confronting them. It seemed as if it didn’t need to employ that superior natural guidance, it could still crush these three Dragon Lords.

Like a dragon basking in the strong sun, growing more valiant with each fight, the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon’s combat prowess leaped tremendously after gaining the Flaming Light Feather. Whether it was the lower-level Flood Dragon, the Shell Dragon, or the middle-level Snow Dragon, all were suppressed by the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon. They were battered to the point of scattering broken teeth, claws, and exposed bones everywhere.

Su Huan’s complexion had already turned the color of liver.

Struggling to stand, he was not willing to admit defeat, believing that, as long as he could find the Green Saint Dragon’s weakness, he could certainly turn defeat into victory.

Little did he know that, instead of finding a weakness, each ability the dragon displayed grew stronger. Compared to the other’s Azure Dragon Mystics, his own dragons seemed nothing more than a group of little lizards playing in the mud…

“I give up…” Su Huan finally couldn’t endure the humiliation of being thoroughly beaten and weakly uttered these words.

His voice was so low that neither Sun Chong nor Zhu Minglang heard him.

“Stop fighting, I give up!!” In the end, Su Huan still didn’t wish to see his own dragons beaten to death or crippled, so he shouted out loud.

“Useless thing!” Sun Chong said somewhat irritably.

Their opponents’ students even knew how to use the tactics of ganging up to defeat dragons of a higher rank than themselves. So why were his own students as naïve as blank sheets of paper?

The Green Saint Dragon was formidable, but it wasn’t invincible.

Even if they couldn’t win in the end, they shouldn’t lose in such a shambolic way. It’s really shameful!

“We are already well aware of the strength of Li Chuan Academy. Let’s end this test here,” Han Wen said to Sun Chong.

“There are still two students left. The rules have been set; how can we just change them willy-nilly?” Sun Chong didn’t plan to give up just yet!

“They have already earned my recognition,” Han Wen said.

“But they haven’t earned mine,” Sun Chong insisted.

After saying this, Sun Chong’s gaze fell on the last two High Court students.

One of them involuntarily took a step back, showing a look of helplessness, “Teacher, I’m probably no match for him. May I admit defeat?”

“Hmph, I had no expectations for you. Guan Wenqi, show these students from the outer court the true strength of our High Court. After all, they were also the seven picked out from thousands of students,” Sun Chong said.

Just to be safe, Sun Chong still chose a student who stood out the most among the first-years.

This Guan Wenqi, coming from a prominent family, was already blessed with exceptional talent, and he was also very outstanding in his own right. When he enrolled, his strength was far beyond his peers.

Students like him, given another year or two of training, could even make a name for themselves in exchanges between the major powers.

“Guan Wenqi, I hope you understand that this is a test for the outer court, and you shouldn’t be appearing in this situation,” Han Wen seemingly recognized this extremely talented student.

“I’m sorry, Teacher Han. I’ve received great favor from Principal Sun, and while it’s truly unfair of me to test these students from the outer court, their strength has already been made evident. My involvement is but to salvage a bit of face for our High Court, so it doesn’t get out that our High Court students were beaten by an unworthy outer court,” Guan Wenqi said with an apologetic smile, behaving courteously.

Han Wen felt some regret.

Because he was injured, Sun Chong was fully in charge of this outer court assessment.

Clearly, Sun Chong had manipulated things, otherwise, students like Zeng Liang, Su Huan, and Guan Wenqi would never have appeared in this team.

Plainly speaking, an assessment for the outer court would have been remarkable if their best seven could simply draw even with the mid-to-lower tier students of the High Court.

Zeng Liang and Su Huan belonged to the upper middle rank.

And Guan Wenqi, even more so, was top-notch, comparable to the Big Disciples of the Big Sects and might even become a Chief Disciple in a year or two.

To make a student with the potential to become a Chief test the outer court??

How could Sun Chong bring himself to do such a thing!

He was determined to see the people of Li Chuan Academy utterly defeated, with no intention of accepting them!

…

Guan Wenqi stepped onto the Great Competition Field, and soon the surrounding students let out exclamations of surprise.

Guan Wenqi, a celebrity of the High Court!

Among all the first-years at the High Court, there are hardly a few who can compete with him!

With him entering the battle, how could the outer court of Li Chuan Academy possibly win??

“Your Green Saint Dragon is quite impressive. I feel that if you mingled in our High Court, you could also make a name for yourself,” Guan Wenqi stepped closer and said to Zhu Minglang.

“Are you the last one?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“Yes, the other one, who is less skilled than you, voluntarily gave up,” Guan Wenqi nodded.

“Then let’s get started,” Zhu Minglang said.

“There’s no need for that. Just concede,” Guan Wenqi said.

“That confident??” Zhu Minglang raised an eyebrow.

“My dragon is at the Peak, and stepping into Monarch Level is probably just a matter of time. You all have performed very well already. I believe teachers like Han Wen and other students who are watching will give reasonable feedback to the academy. After all, if the upper echelons of the academy knew that you eventually lost to me, Guan Wenqi, they would understand,” Guan Wenqi continued.

Zhu Minglang listened to what the other party had said.

Even though they spoke as if stating facts, he still sensed an air of arrogance and condescension.

Peak…

Indeed, it might be a bit difficult to handle.

If it had been before, Zhu Minglang, without losing his smile, would have already given the other party a thrashing.

At the moment, Little Qingzhuo is still in the growth phase and probably would have difficulty winning.

“Yea~~~~~~~~”

Little Qingzhuo also seemed to pick up on the condescension in the opponent’s casual words, which made it very dissatisfied!

“Do you want to challenge it?” Zhu Minglang asked.

Just like back then, at the shallow shores of the Mangrove Forest, Little Qingzhuo, who was still in its juvenile phase, challenged the Thousand Year Demon Spirit.

That battle also allowed Little Qingzhuo to enter the growth phase ahead of time.

Constantly challenging more powerful enemies is how one can continually break through one’s self.

Little Qingzhuo’s temperament has become more resolute than before.

Or perhaps, in its very bones flows the proud blood of a Holy Dragon, never succumbing to setbacks, not even fearing a powerful foe. Even though it knew it was inferior in cultivation base to its opponent, it would never back down easily!

Zhu Minglang also hesitated.

Lower-level against Peak, there was a substantial gap.

But perhaps it was because Little Qingzhuo had escaped the fate of a Disabled Dragon and received an opportunity akin to rebirth, it had abandoned its past frailty and inferiority complex. The noble bloodline combined with its prideful spirit made it clear how much it yearned to become stronger!!

Yes, Little Qingzhuo yearned to grow stronger!

To challenge more powerful enemies was not a sign of unfounded pride but an extraordinary appreciation for this rebirth!

It was not about comfortably growing with higher bloodline and talent but surpassing one’s own limits amidst adversity!

It was precisely because it had once been a Disabled Dragon.

That it understood the value of its perfect body!

Most importantly, Little Qingzhuo did not want to let Zhu Minglang down.

Not all Dragon Shepherds would be willing to use a precious Spirit Contract, gambling their future, to save a Disabled Dragon with an uncertain fate.
