The skeleton is too invincible; I leveled up with the school beauty!

This is not surrender, but the calm before the storm!

"Good! Very good!"

"You think having an evolving skeleton will turn your life around? Dream on!"

Wang Dao's face was twisted beyond recognition, and his golden pupils were filled with bloodshot veins of rage.

He was trembling all over, blood was still dripping from his expensive combat suit, and he looked like a mad dog driven to the brink of death, ready to pounce and bite at any moment.

"Wang Dao, classmate."

Lu Tianming stepped forward slowly, his gray robe fluttering without wind, and the pressure of a B-level expert silently spread.

"The admissions officers from Tianque Academy are arriving soon. Before then, no one is allowed to cause trouble in private."

He gave Wang Dao a meaningful look, his tone becoming more serious: "If anyone dares to violate the rules... I will report it directly to Tianque Academy." "You should know that even the Dragon Fang Guild is nothing but an ant in front of the admissions officer representing Tianque Academy."

Wang Dao's expression changed drastically, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

He certainly understood what Lu Tianming meant.

Tianque Academy is the top academy in the Dragon Kingdom, with immense power and countless strong individuals. They could easily destroy the Dragon Fang Guild.

No matter how arrogant his father was, he wouldn't dare to openly defy the rules of the academy.

But how could Wang Dao possibly swallow this insult?

He dared not bare his teeth at Lu Tianming, so he could only vent all his anger on Su Wanqing.

After all, the strong wield their swords against the stronger, and the weak wield their swords against the weaker.

After taking a few steps, Wang Dao suddenly turned back: "Su Wanqing, you think this is the end?"

"My father is an A-level expert. You can't even imagine the power the Wang family wields in Luolong City!"

"You, your damned skeleton, and your wretched mother lying in the hospital—none of you will get away with this!"

"I'll make you kneel and beg me, I'll let your skeleton watch its master wag its tail and grovel like a dog!"

After saying that, he abruptly flung off the blood-stained hem of his clothes and strode away.

"Young Master Wang! Wait for me!"

Wen Lian hurriedly chased after her, not forgetting to turn back and shriek before leaving, "Su Wanqing! A slut from the slums will never rise above her circumstances!"

—She seemed to have forgotten that she herself had crawled out of the slums.

The crowd slowly parted like the receding tide, with whispers rising and falling.

He promised to be able to clearly hear the conversations of those around him.

"That skeleton almost killed Wang Dao just now..." "It seems to be able to evolve..."

"Su Wanqing is about to turn her life around. This skeleton seems to be something special. If the admissions officer takes a liking to her skeleton, she'll be set for life..."

"Sigh, it's a miracle she survived Wang Dao's revenge! Wang Dao is notoriously ruthless..."

Countless gazes, like searchlights, fell upon Su Wanqing.

Some people retreated in fear, while others shook their heads in sympathy.

But more often than not, they gave indifferent glances, as if watching a street farce.

The promised soul fire suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip, and the pale white finger bones gripped the hilt of the Cataclysmic Greatsword tightly.

He stared at the departing figures of the adulterous couple, his murderous intent surging like a tidal wave.

Wang Dao, that bullying bastard... and Wen Lian, that ungrateful and despicable woman...

They must be killed!

Xu Nuo is now connected to Su Wanqing by soul, sharing life and death, and anyone who threatens her must die.

He turned to look at Su Wanqing's pale profile; blood was seeping from the girl's tightly clenched lower lip.

Su Wanqing, we'll live and die together... Your enemies are my prey...

I will break Wang Dao's bones one by one, and silence Wen Lian's foul mouth forever. Dragon Fang Guild?

Ha... Once those two scoundrels are reduced to minced meat, no guild can save them!

Su Wanqing's tears... they will have to pay for it with their blood!

"Everyone, disperse!"

Lu Tianming's fake smile broke the silence: "Everyone, disperse! Su, go to the infirmary to treat your wound. The school will reimburse the expenses."

"Thank you, Dean."

Su Wanqing covered the wound on her shoulder and thanked her softly.

The wound on my shoulder burned painfully, but compared to the pain in my heart, it was nothing.

She certainly understood the reason for Lu Tianming's change in attitude.

The potential that Xu Nuo demonstrated made this old fox see the possibility of being favored by admissions officers at top universities, and he saw investment value in it.

After all, in this dog-eat-dog world, people without value are wrong even to breathe.

Teachers are the same; if you're not worth investing in, they won't give you a second glance.

Lu Tianming's wrinkles smoothed out, and he smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum: "Of course, of course! You skeleton have great potential, and this recruitment selection opportunity is rare!" He kept rubbing his hands together, his knuckles making a slight cracking sound.

Those cloudy old eyes were fixed on the Cataclysmic Greatsword in Xu Nuo's hand, the pupils slightly contracting.

The aura of death emanating from the sword sent chills down his spine, even though he was a B-rank expert.

Xu Nuo keenly noticed his gaze; this old man's eyes were practically glued to his sword!

His skull cracked, and with a swift turn, he slung the greatsword over his shoulder.

The deathly ripples created as the sword blade sliced ​​through the air caused Lu Tianming to unconsciously take a half-step back.

Suppressing his shock, Lu Tianming said, "Su Wanqing, participate in more dungeon trials these next few days and try to break through to D-rank."

As he spoke, his withered fingers rubbed together incessantly, as if counting invisible coins: "As long as you can be selected by the admissions teachers of Tianque Academy... your mother's medical expenses will no longer be a problem."

Su Wanqing's eyes first lit up with hope, but quickly dimmed again: "But I'm a Contract Master..." "So what if you're a Contract Master? Although you're rare, you have to spend money, gamble with your life, and are easily killed..."

Lu Tianming realized he had misspoke as soon as the words left his mouth.

He coughed a few times, forced a "kind" smile, and quickly tried to cover it up with his words.

"Ahem... well, I mean, Contract Masters are a legendary profession, their future is limitless!"

He then stared at Xu Nuo and said, "Although your summoned beast... well, it's a bit... special! This skeleton of yours can evolve on its own, with unlimited potential! Tianque Academy really values... um... special talents like you!"

Within Xu Nuo's empty eye sockets, the soul fire flickered violently.

This old man changes his tune faster than flipping through a book. Just now he was forcing Su Wanqing to sign a usurious loan agreement, and now he's pretending to be a kind elder!

"Let's go."

Su Wanqing tugged at Xu Nuo's bony hand, her voice tinged with weariness and helplessness, "Let's go to the infirmary first."

Treating the wound is secondary; getting out of this suffocating air is the real priority.

Watching the girl and the skeleton disappear into the distance, Lu Tianming's old face revealed an undisguised joy. His hunched back suddenly straightened, and a terrifying glint flashed in his cloudy eyes.

"I never expected this... We've hit the jackpot this year! Two students actually have a chance to get into Tianque Academy..."

"For every student I recommend to enter the Heavenly Palace, I will receive one opportunity to enter the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm..."

He licked his chapped lips, as if he could already taste the Heavenly Elixir: "If I could recommend two people... not only would I get double the chance... but also that elixir powerful enough to help someone at the peak of B-rank break through to A-rank!"

Thinking of this, Lu Tianming's breathing became rapid.

He could almost see himself dominating Luolong City after breaking through to A-level.

Suddenly, a sinister glint flashed in his cloudy old eyes: "Even if this girl ultimately fails to enter the Heavenly Palace Academy..."

He counted on his fingers:

"East China Sea War Academy—last year they offered eight million in recommendation fees..."

"Northern Mage Academy - Includes a free A-rank spellbook..."

"Southern Frontier Beast Taming Academy—directly provided an A-grade crystal core..."

"As long as Su Wanqing can be accepted by any one of them..."

"I can obtain cultivation resources worth at least tens of millions!" "As long as I can get enough resources..."

"Breaking through to Rank A is just around the corner..."

"By then..."

"What does it matter if I offend the mere Dragon Fang Guild? Wang Tianlong will be trampled under my feet..."
