Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

Xu Yu raised the scepter in his hand, and a burst of crimson-gold light fell on everyone, greatly increasing their speed.

Yan took the lead and charged ahead. He slammed his fist into the ground, and a pillar of crimson magma burst forth from beneath the Flame Lion King, striking it directly in the abdomen.

Gu Yi followed closely behind, using his 'Dragon Body' to greatly enhance his body, and leaped onto the top of the Flaming Lion King's head, gathering his strength to deliver a powerful punch downwards.

With a single blow, the Flame Lion King's head was slammed into the ground.

It wasn't over yet. Zhu Zhuqing and Xie Yue arrived one after the other, attacking from the side and leaving a wound on each side of the Flaming Lion King.

But at that moment, the Flaming Lion King regained its senses, and it suddenly raised its head and roared to the sky.

"Roar!"

A burst of fiery energy erupted from its body, blasting everyone away.

Its eyes burned with rage, and its entire body turned fiery red at that moment.

"Roar!"

It roared again, its form becoming ethereal. The next second, three more Flame Lion Kings appeared in the arena, each locking onto its target and roaring as they pounced on them.

"Everyone back! Maintain formation, don't panic!"

Seeing that one of the lion kings was about to rush towards her, Hu Liena immediately shouted a warning.

Xu Yu was standing right behind her. If she moved aside, Xu Yu would be the one to die. But it was impossible for her to take the Flaming Lion King's attack head-on.

"Fox-like Demonic Flame!"

Five dark purple fireballs appeared out of thin air behind Hu Liena, and under her control, they hurled one after another at the Flaming Lion King.

However, the opponent was too fast, and the attacks could not hit at all, so they had no effect whatsoever.

Hu Liena glanced around and saw that everyone was being blocked by the Flame Lion King's clone. They wanted to help, but they couldn't break free at all.

Just as she was scanning the area, the Flaming Lion King appeared before her, suddenly opening its massive jaws to bite Hu Liena.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Hu Liena, raising his left arm and aiming it at the Flaming Lion King's massive maw.

"Soul Bone Skill, Black Dragon Hellfire Burst!"

As soon as the words fell, a dark, dragon-shaped flame burst forth from Gu Yi's left arm. It rushed straight into the Flame Lion King's gaping maw and then burst out from behind it in the next second!

This attack pierced through the Flame Lion King's body, instantly killing it.

At the same time, the phantom of the Flaming Lion King, which was entangled with the others, also disappeared.

The battle is over!

Gu Yi glanced at the figures in the arena, and seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was alright, he felt relieved.

Then, he turned to look at Hu Liena and asked softly:

"Are you OK?"

Chapter 83 Making trouble

"No...it's okay."

Hu Liena's hands were still in an attack stance, clearly still somewhat caught off guard.

"It's good that you're alright," Gu Yi replied.

He then turned his gaze to the ghost beside him, awaiting its next command.

Ghost was surprised that it would end so quickly. He had thought they could have spent the whole morning here.

Are all ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts this weak now?

"Ahem! Let's take a break. We'll start the next practical lesson in half an hour."

"Your performance in this match was very poor. I hope you can make good use of this half hour to find the shortcomings you just made, and then I want to see your improvement in the next match."

……

Before long, the morning had passed.

During this time, five black spirit rings floated in the arena, and it wasn't until noon that the ghost finally allowed everyone to rest.

But just as Gu Yi stepped out of the arena, a familiar figure blocked his way.

"Huh? Sun Chuantao? What are you doing here?"

Gu Yi frowned and asked.

"Don't ask, come with me, I have something to tell you."

Sun Chuantao waved to Gu Yi and spoke mysteriously.

Why should he go with you?

Suddenly, Zhu Zhuqing blocked Gu Yi's path and asked warily.

"Why?"

"Ah!"

"If he doesn't want to come, that's fine, but I can't guarantee what will happen afterward."

Sun Chuantao sneered, his face full of arrogance.

“Okay, I’ll go with you,” Gu Yi replied calmly.

Anyway, we have to deal with his matter eventually, so it's the same whether we do it sooner or later.

"You go back to your dorm and rest first. I'll be back later."

Gu Yi gently patted Zhu Zhuqing's shoulder and said softly.

Zhu Zhuqing felt a little worried, but looking at Gu Yi's confident eyes, she hesitated.

She thought about it for a while and finally decided to step aside.

"I'll be waiting for you in the dorm."

"Mm," Gu Yi replied.

Immediately, he quickly followed Sun Chuantao toward the college gate.

"Hmph, you've got guts. Do you know why I called you here?"

As they walked, Sun Chuantao asked in a cold voice.

"Hmm~ Who knows? But what good could it possibly be?"

"Since I'm going to get into trouble with you sooner or later anyway, I might as well resolve it now and avoid future hassles."

Gu Yi maintained a relaxed and contented smile throughout, showing absolutely no sense of urgency.

"Hmph! Deal with me? I think you'd better worry about yourself first!"

Sun Chuantao scoffed dismissively.

Soon, the two entered a teahouse in Wuhun City. The decor there was very elegant and antique.

Led by Sun Chuantao, Gu Yi was taken to a private room on the second floor.

There were two elderly men in the room. One was dressed in red and glaring at Gu Yi, while the other was dressed in plain clothes and holding a teacup, looking at Gu Yi with curiosity.

As soon as he entered, Gu Yi could sense a terrifying pressure of soul power emanating from the old man in red.

"Grandpa, it's him, it's him who stole my team spot."

He even dared to...

"They called me a dog and even dared to lay a hand on me; they're utterly lawless!"

Sun Chuantao quickly stood next to the old man in red, arrogantly threatening him.

"Hmph! Don't worry, Chuantao, with your grandpa here, I'll definitely give you an explanation today."

As he spoke, the old man in red looked at Gu Yi with even more anger in his eyes.

The direct pressure from that soul power was even more terrifying.

"Boy, I'm giving you a chance now. Kneel down and kowtow to me to admit your mistakes, and then voluntarily withdraw from the Spirit Hall Academy, and I'll give you a chance to live."

The old man looked at Gu Yi with a fierce expression and threatened him.

"Ah!"

Gu Yi withstood the pressure and gave a cold laugh.

"Who do you think you are? You think you can make me kneel? Is a mere Soul Saint so great?"

"If you kneel down and kowtow to me now, admitting your mistake, I might let you go right now."

Gu Yi scoffed dismissively.

His expression caught the attention of Sun Chuantao and his companion, who felt a mixture of anger and disdain.

"interesting."

On the side, another old man found it rather amusing.

He originally just came to watch the show, but he didn't expect Gu Yi to be so arrogant. Did he not recognize that the person in front of him was a cardinal?

"Or does this kid have some other tricks up his sleeve?"

Without realizing it, the old man had spoken his thoughts aloud.

"Huh? Bishop Salas, what did you just say?"

The cardinal was about to make a move when he was interrupted by the words Salas had just blurted out.

"Oh, it's nothing. Just continue. I'll handle anything that happens."

Salas waved his hand and replied casually.

"Well then, thank you very much, Your Excellency. With you here, things are much easier for me."

The cardinal respectfully cupped his hands in greeting.

Immediately, his expression returned to its previous fierce look.

"Chuantao, we still have plenty of time today. Go and teach him a lesson first, let him vent his anger."
