Panlong: Taotie bloodline, unlimited power growth!

Liuyun City.

Viscount Bartley's Mansion.

That night, the mansion was brightly lit.

Even the guards at the gate had smiles on their faces and stood ramrod straight.

Who doesn't know?

The young lady from the Bartley family has been tested and found to have a superior affinity for water elements, and her mental strength is seventeen times that of her peers!

What does this mean?

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he is destined to become a great mage in the future, and may even have the potential to become a Saint-level mage!

Inside the study.

The atmosphere, however, was somewhat tense.

The magic map was brought out.

Several locations are circled in red above.

"Storm Academy!"

"The Empire's premier magic academy—only now can it be worthy of Avril's talent!"

Doug's finger touched the capital of the Magnolia Empire.

This level nine warrior was completely devoid of his usual composure, and was as excited as a child who had just received a new toy.

"Storm Academy is great!"

"But we don't have any real foothold in the capital!"

"And the journey from Liuyun City to the capital takes a month just to travel there!"

"How old is Avril? She's never left us!"

Hearing what Doug said.

Jenny frowned slightly, her tone tinged with worry.

As a mother, her first thought was not about glory, but whether her daughter would endure hardship.

"What's there to be afraid of!"

"I'll deliver it myself!"

"I'll see which blind thief dares to lay a hand on my daughter!"

Doug's eyes widened, and his loud voice made the study buzz.

Raven sat in a corner to the side.

He toyed with an exquisite silver dagger, as quiet as an outsider.

But he was already calculating things rapidly in his mind.

If you can choose.

He certainly hoped that Avril could join Ernst College!

Ernst College is widely recognized as the best in mainland China!

pity.

Avril Lavigne has great talent!

But the people from Ernst College did not invite Avril.

As for Storm Academy?

Although I've never heard of this academy in the original work.

But he lived in the Yulan Empire for ten years.

Raven naturally knew about Storm Academy.

The headmaster of Storm Academy is a Saint-level mage!

Joining Avril at Storm Academy might be a good option!

"I think..."

"I want to go here!"

Avril, who had been slumped over the table, suddenly spoke.

She stretched out her chubby little finger and pointed to the red circle closest to Liuyun City.

Doug and Jenny both moved closer.

"Violet Magic Academy?"

"My precious daughter!"

"This is also one of the top ten academies in the empire!"

"But compared to Storm Academy, it's not even in the same league!"

"Our family isn't short of money, why should we settle for second best?"

Doug paused for a moment, his brows furrowing instantly into a deep frown.

"baby!"

"Is it because it's close to home?"

Jenny also looked puzzled.

"Storm Academy is too far away!"

"What should I do if I miss my mom, dad, and brother?"

"I'm not going to that Storm Academy, I'm going to Violet Forest!"

Avril nodded vigorously.

Her big eyes blinked, and it seemed as if there was water glistening inside.

She turned her head and glanced at Raven sitting in the corner, her lips slightly pouting.

Doug opened his mouth.

He had a lot to say, but under the gaze of his daughter's big, watery eyes, the words instantly got stuck in his throat.

In his life, he feared nothing more than a thousand troops and horses, but he feared nothing more than his daughter shedding tears.

"this……"

He looked at Jenny for help.

"Since Avril herself wants to go, then let's go with Violet."

"Actually, the Violet School's water magic division is also quite famous; it's more than enough to teach Avril!"

Jenny sighed.

But the expression on her face softened.

Most importantly, it's really close to home.

For a strong person, traveling a hundred miles is merely a matter of a moment.

Even by horse-drawn carriage, one can depart in the morning and arrive in the evening.

This way, they can indeed take care of their daughter at any time.

"OK!"

"Then let's go with violets!"

Doug slammed his fist on the table and made his decision.

Is that all?

Raven sheathed his dagger, his lips twitching almost imperceptibly.

but!

Keeping something under your nose is always more reassuring than leaving it far away.

……

Five days later.

The hill behind the Viscount's mansion.

Raven sat cross-legged.

He was shirtless, revealing a muscular physique that was almost frighteningly defined.

Although he is only ten years old, his physical development has already far surpassed that of his peers.

Every muscle contains explosive power, with lines as smooth as a cheetah's.

now.

His breathing was heavy and rhythmic.

With each breath, the surrounding air seemed to tremble.

"Gulp... gulp..."

A strange sound emanated from Raven's body.

It's as if some ancient behemoth is awakening and feeding.

Raven suddenly opened his eyes.

On the back of his left hand, the dark red birthmark was now emitting an eerie red glow!

As Raven circulated his battle qi.

The birthmark seemed to come alive, its huge mouth opening wide, generating a terrifying suction force!

The fire element, which was originally free in the world, seemed to be forcibly pulled and frantically converged into Raven's body!

"Break it!"

Raven let out a low growl.

The pent-up energy erupted completely at this moment.

The fighting spirit within his body surged like a raging river, crashing fiercely against that invisible barrier.

"Snap!"

Something seems to have broken.

Followed by.

An unprecedented feeling of comfort spread throughout my body.

The bones and muscles crackled and popped, like popping beans.

Level 5 Warrior!

Raven let out a long breath, looked at his hands, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

A ten-year-old level 5 warrior!

If this gets out, the entire Yulan Continent will probably be shaken!

"This power..."

Raven casually grabbed a piece of granite about the size of a human head from beside him.

Apply force with all five fingers.

"puff!"

Hard granite, in his hands, turned into powder as easily as tofu.

His pure physical strength has also reached level five!

Double Level 5!

This not only means a multiplication of power!

This also means that he has an absolute crushing advantage in battles of the same level!

"Not enough."

Raven clenched his fist.

Feel the surging power within my body.

But he felt no sense of complacency whatsoever.

On this continent, all those below the Holy Realm are but ants.

even!

To those high-ranking, god-level powerhouses, the Holy Realm is nothing more than a slightly stronger ant.

To truly take control of his own destiny and protect his family in this life, he must become stronger!

At the very least, one must reach the Holy Realm!

Even...become a god!

Raven stood up and stretched his stiff neck.

It's time to go back.

If I stay out too long, my dad will start nagging again.

……

I just got back to my own yard.

Raven sensed a resentment.

A very strong sense of resentment.

On the swing in the yard.

Avril sat there sulking, kicking the pebbles on the ground with her toes.

As soon as Raven walked in, the little girl immediately turned her head to the side, leaving Raven with only his stubborn back.

"snort!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it had extremely strong penetrating power.

Raven shook his head with amusement, walked over, and reached out to pat her head.

"Snapped!"

Avril slapped his hand away, turned her head, and her big eyes were full of accusation.

"Don't touch me!"

"Raven Barrett!"

"Have you forgotten you have a younger sister?"

"Do you know that I'm going to Violet Academy in a month?"

"Then I'll be all alone in that place full of strangers, unable to eat or sleep well, and with no one to talk to!"

"And what about you?"

"All you do all day is cultivate! Cultivate! Cultivate!"

"Can't you even spare half a day to go shopping with me in the city and buy some good food?"

The little girl jumped off the swing, put her hands on her hips, and looked like a cat with its fur standing on end.

She became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

no way.

Avril was genuinely angry and a little flustered.

Although she said that Violet was close to home.

But this was, after all, her first time leaving home, leaving her parents and brother.

The unease in my heart can only be vented in this way.

Raven paused for a moment.

Seeing his sister's reddened eyes, a tender spot in his heart was touched.

Yes.

In Avril's eyes, this was a peaceful world.

He has a strong father, a gentle mother, and a comfortable life.

She had no idea what the cruel reality of this world truly was.

She didn't know that the reason her brother was cultivating so desperately was to protect the peace she had taken for granted.

But I can't say these things to her.

I can't say.

"alright!"

"It was my fault!"

Raven sighed helplessly, squatted down, and brought his gaze level with Avril's.

He stretched out his hand.

This time, Avril didn't dodge; she just whimpered and twisted her body.

"I went to the back mountain to prepare a gift for you."

Raven gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, his tone unusually tender.

"Gift?"

"What gift?"

"Don't try to fool me with wildflowers from the roadside!"

Avril's ears twitched, and her tears stopped instantly.

"No way."

Raven smiled and flicked his wrist.

As if by magic, he pulled out a snow-white rabbit with long ears from behind his back.

This is a rabbit he caught casually in the back hill just now.

These little creatures aren't very aggressive, and they're incredibly cute, all fluffy.

really!

Avril's eyes lit up instantly.

"Wow!"

"What an adorable little bunny!"
