Douluo, my clone Groudon

Chapter 267 Tianding Starry Sky Academy
Beside them, the others didn't care about the rest of the journey at all, leaving it entirely to Gura, the captain.

They were all curious about Bai Yuan's martial soul abilities.

"Bai Yuan, how are you feeling?" Gu Yue asked in a low voice.

Bai Yuan patted his stomach and gave a satisfied smile: "I'm seven-tenths full. The Tang Sect's soul guide core energy is very pure; it should be the soul power inputted by a soul master."

Na'er rolled her eyes, having never met someone who could eat more than her before: "Three mechs only made you seven-tenths full. The academy is going to have a headache from now on."

"The academy doesn't need my little bit of food." Bai Yuan shrugged nonchalantly, and said regretfully, "Plain energy is still not enough to fill you up, especially the energy of the soul guide core is too 'weak' and not fresh enough."

He really wanted to go to the Blood God Legion as soon as possible, so he could taste the delicious power of the abyss.

"Shut up." Wu Siduo crossed her arms, horrified by Bai Yuan's martial soul. Its super-strong devouring ability seemed to devour her soul power along with it during the battle, sending chills down one's spine.

"We should go, or the Tang Clan members will come chasing after us."

Bai Yuan didn't pay attention to Wu Siduo's blustering but cowardly performance. The six of them chatted and went to a restaurant recommended by the Soul Network for dinner. After sightseeing for a while, they headed to the next city.

three days later.

Gula stood before the magnificent gates of the Starry Sky Soul Master Academy, his fingertips lightly brushing against the soul guide communicator on his wrist. The screen lit up, and he dialed a pre-stored number.

"Hey, yes, we've arrived, right at the academy gate." Gula's voice was calm and steady.

A series of clattering sounds came from the other end of the communicator, followed by an excited reply from a young man: "Oh, juniors, just a moment, we're coming!"

Before the communication was cut off, the sound of hurried footsteps and shouts could be heard from the other end, indicating that the other party attached great importance to this exchange.

Gula's lips curled up slightly as he turned to look at his teammates who were talking behind him.

Bai Yuan was leaning against an ancient tree, sunlight filtering through the leaves and casting dappled shadows on his pale face.

In three days, they passed through three cities. Bai Yuan had a great time, tasting many different kinds of "soul power flavors". He did not harm his opponent's core, and still managed to break through to level 50. He only needs a suitable soul spirit to break through to the Soul King level.

"What are you daydreaming about?" Na'er nudged Bai Yuan's ribs with her elbow, interrupting his reverie.

Her short silver hair shimmered in the sunlight, and her violet eyes were full of mischief.

As an incarnation, she was very interested in Bai Yuan, who was in the same situation. After discovering that Gula didn't care, she approached Bai Yuan and became curious about his situation.

"Are you thinking about food again? Don't you ever feel full?"

Bai Yuan lazily straightened up, his short black hair swaying slightly with his movement: "I was thinking, Starry Sky Academy is famous for gathering starlight, I wonder if the power of starlight can be consumed."

“Be careful this time,” Wu Siduo interjected. “Don’t scare anyone again. Most Soul Masters don’t have the same tolerance as us.”

In a previous battle, Bai Yuan's devouring ability almost led him to be mistaken for an evil soul master. Fortunately, Shrek Academy's prestigious reputation prevented a major misunderstanding.

Gu Yue stood to the side, quietly observing her teammates' interactions. Her gaze lingered particularly on Bai Yuan, filled with curiosity about this "comrade" with terrifying devouring abilities. How exactly was he created...?

The academy gates slowly opened, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

A middle-aged man in a dark blue teacher's uniform led a dozen students briskly towards them. The man wore a name tag that read "Li Zhilong - Dean of Students" on his chest and had a warm smile on his face.

"Welcome to Starry Sky Academy for exchange!"

Li Zhilong's voice was loud and powerful. He quickly scanned Gula and his group, and his gaze paused slightly when he saw Bai Yuan—this black-clad youth gave him a strange sense of danger, like facing a sleeping ferocious beast.

This greatly surprised him. He had never slacked off in his cultivation for many years after graduation. At the Starry Sky Academy, which was the most suitable for him, he was now a seven-ring Soul Saint and a two-word Battle Armor Master. His attitude became even more cautious.

Gula stepped forward and politely extended his hand: "Hello, Director Li, thank you for your hospitality."

Li Zhilong grasped Gula's hand, noticing the maturity beyond his years in the blond boy's eyes: "Zhou He has already informed you of the situation. We have selected the academy's best students to communicate with you, and we will definitely not let you down."

On the way to the observatory, Li Zhilong enthusiastically introduced the history and characteristics of the academy.

Gula walked casually at the front of the group, but in reality, he was secretly sensing the energy flow in the surrounding environment. As the altitude increased, he felt a cool energy permeating the air—the power of starlight, which, though faint, was definitely present.

"Interesting," Bai Yuan murmured to himself, his tongue unconsciously licking his lips. This energy was completely different from the scorching soul power of the Tang Sect mecha's core; it was purer and cooler, like a summer night breeze.

Wu Siduo appeared beside him at some point and warned in a low voice, "Don't get any funny ideas. We're here for an exchange, not to demolish the school."

Bai Yuan blinked innocently: "I was just thinking that the starry sky here must be very beautiful."

Wu Siduo rolled her eyes, clearly not believing his nonsense. Sometimes she regretted applying to join Gula's team, now she had to live in constant fear, afraid that her teammates would destroy the other team's academy.

The observatory, situated at the highest point of the academy, is a white, circular building with a unique transparent roof and surrounded by sophisticated optical instruments. Even during the day, one can sense the faint starlight emanating from within the building.

"This is the pride of our college."

Li Zhilong proudly explained, "The internal structure of the observatory is specially designed to gather and store the power of starlight. Even on cloudy days, the starlight stored inside is enough for students to use in their cultivation."

Gula nodded: "That's exactly why we chose your school for this exchange. Several of my teammates have martial souls related to stars, and we hope to gain some insights from this opportunity."

Li Zhilong's smile widened: "Of course! As agreed, you have three days' use after the exchange match. But now..."

He clapped his hands. "How about we have a friendly spar first? The interior of the Star Observatory is actually our main arena."

As soon as they entered the observatory, they saw a standard circular battle arena with tiered seating around it.

The most striking feature is the dome—the transparent material allows sunlight to filter in softly, while tiny points of light twinkle at the top like real stars.
