Douluo Dragon King: I'm creating a golden age behind the scenes!

Time flies, and a month passed in the blink of an eye. Liu Tianran cultivated diligently day after day, and by the end of the month, his soul power had successfully broken through, increasing from level thirty-eight to level thirty-nine.

Liu Tianran's cultivation was already quite fast, and he planned to break through to become a Soul Master by the end of the first semester of his grade.

Becoming a healing-type Soul Master at the age of twelve is definitely placing him in the second tier of geniuses in the Douluo Continent.

After a small celebration, he returned to his mundane and ordinary daily routine.

Every day, he would practice and read books, and in the afternoon, Lin Yue would arrange sparring sessions.

The others had their share of wins and losses, but surprisingly, Liu Tianran won all his matches against his classmates.

In Class One, Liu Tianran, although a healing-type Soul Master, excels in Soul Power, Physical Fitness, Mental Strength, and Combat Skills.

Time slipped away quietly between fulfillment and monotony, like water that evaporates easily in the desert, vanishing without a trace. Liu Tianran was immersed in the daily rhythm of cultivation, completely unaware of it. When he suddenly came to his senses, he found himself in Lin Yue's office. More than two months had passed since Liu Tianran stepped into the academy.

When Lin Yue called Liu Tianran and the others to his office and informed them that the college team selection competition was about to begin and that they needed to participate, Xu Xiaoyu and the others looked quite relaxed.

In the advanced department of Donghai Academy, there are hardly any Soul Masters in Class 1 to Class 4. What are they afraid of if Class 1 has a few Soul Masters?

Xu Xiaoyu and her friends felt that they had no chance of losing to the classes below them.

Lin Yue indeed considered this in his heart. He had full confidence in his students and never expected them to lose.

. . . . . .

Today happened to be the last day of the intermediate-level promotion competition, and Liu Tianran went to the playground to join in the fun after leaving the office.

Especially after witnessing Tang Wulin successfully dismantle the martial soul fusion technique of Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi on his own, he made a name for himself and caused a great uproar.

"The promotion match is won by Class 5 of the first year of freshman year!" Long Hengxu's voice echoed throughout the arena, announcing the end of the match.

He sighed inwardly; as expected, the Golden Dragon King's blessing was still too much for these children.

Seeing the students in Class 1, Grade 1 instantly deflate,

It's understandable, since their class was originally a team of all Great Soul Masters, and they were naturally going to try to advance to higher grades, but they stopped at this last hurdle.

In contrast, the students of Class 5, Grade 1, cheered with joy. After all, it was expected that two Great Soul Masters and one Soul Master had defeated three Great Soul Masters; losing would have been normal.

The teachers from all grades who were watching were also full of surprises about Class 5 of the first grade. Xie Xie, a great soul master with twin martial souls, and Gu Yue, who could control multiple elements, were both rare geniuses.

But they were also secretly relieved, thinking that if it were their class in the same year, they would probably be embarrassed too.

After all, Gu Yue and Tang Wulin from Class 5 this year are outstanding in strength and could shine in any other year.

Ye Yingluo looked at Wu Changkong with a complicated expression. She was also a little embarrassed to have lost the competition.

Wu Changkong looked at Tang Wulin, who was already exhausted, and said, "Very good, you all performed very well."

Wu Changkong ignored Director Long without even glancing at him, picked up Tang Wulin, and said to Xie Xie and Gu Yue, "Let's go." Then he left directly.

Gu Yue and Xie Xie approached with concern. Xie Xie had woken up after stepping off the stage, but his soul power was exhausted. Gu Yue asked anxiously, "Teacher Wu, how is Wu Lin?"

Wu Changkong looked at Gu Yue and said, "It's nothing serious, she just suffered a shock and fainted. Just go to the infirmary and have a therapist take care of her." Gu Yue and Xie Xie breathed a sigh of relief.

The next day, Liu Tianran woke up early from his meditation, breathed a sigh of relief, and felt that his soul power was one step closer to level 40. He would be able to break through in two or three months at most, and he had to arrange the soul spirit's ascension as soon as possible.

Donghai Academy is about to establish a first-year Class Zero, at which time students will be able to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform for spirit ascension. It will probably take a few more months before soul power breaks through level forty, which will be enough time to complete the first spirit ascension.

He glanced at his roommate who was still meditating, but did not disturb him. He quietly got out of bed and went to the playground to practice martial arts.

An hour later, Liu Tianran finished his cultivation and enjoyed the peaceful beauty of the campus in the early morning. Inadvertently, he saw Tang Wulin talking to a girl. Upon closer inspection, he recognized the girl as Ouyang Zixin, whom Zhang Yong had mentioned on the first day of school as a beauty from the intermediate grade.

He remembered that in the original story, this was Tang Wulin's first love, but Tang Wulin was only nine years old this year. He hadn't even turned ten yet, and he was already in a relationship. No matter how fast he was developing, this was too early.

After exchanging a few words, Ouyang Zixin started running faster, and Tang Wulin immediately followed. Ouyang Zixin seemed to say something to Tang Wulin, and finally the two ran away one after the other.

Liu Tianran couldn't help but sigh, "This is truly the Land of Love; love blossoms so early!" He took out a camera from his storage device and snapped a photo of the two of them as a memento.

Although he was also eager to watch the excitement, he realized that he had no connection with them and it wouldn't be appropriate for him to join in, so he simply stopped paying attention and headed towards the cafeteria.

After breakfast, as soon as I arrived in the classroom, Xu Xiaoyu came over and said, "Liu Tianran, the school wants a few of us to gather in the principal's office."

Liu Tianran nodded: "Then let's gather and go. You can count the number of people."

He knew in his heart that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Donghai Academy was going to form a team to participate in the next Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition.

As Liu Tianran had expected, the higher-ups at Donghai Academy summoned them to discuss next year's Tianhai Grand Competition.

They also promised to allocate many of Donghai Academy's resources to them throughout the year.

Dean Yu Zhen's numerous promises and resource investments for them surpassed even the resource allocation provided to Class Zero in the original work.

In the original work, Long Hengxu proposed to establish Class Zero to concentrate resources on training Tang Wulin and the others because the first-year students were too strong, and he was afraid that it would undermine the confidence of the older students.

Secondly, he assigned Xie Xie and others to Class 5. If Class 5 was too strong, he would not be able to bear the blame for misjudging people.

But the most important reason is that Donghai Academy, as a flagship academy supported by the top leadership of Donghai City, has been suffering from a lack of promising young talents in recent years, and has been ranked in the middle in the Tianhai Alliance Grand Competition for several consecutive years.

Not to mention their ranking in the federal college competition.

If Donghai City were just a remote little town, it wouldn't be a big deal.

However, in recent years, the coastal areas have developed rapidly, and Donghai City's economy has grown rapidly, to the point that it can be called the second-in-command and the money bag in the Tianhai Alliance.

This is the perfect opportunity for Donghai City to increase its influence within the Federation, but unfortunately, its education is not performing well, and its academic results are often unsatisfactory.

However, the lack of talented successors undoubtedly tells everyone that Donghai City is facing a talent shortage and has no one to carry on the legacy. It has even gradually earned the reputation of being a "nouveau riche" and a "fat sheep" within the Federation.

The high-ranking officials of Donghai City were also very dissatisfied with this. As the recruitment academy of Donghai City, the pressure naturally fell on Donghai Academy.

Although the current situation is different from the original work, it is true that the first-year students are strong, and the plot will most likely not change, and Class Zero will still be established.

The arrival of Liu Tianran gave the higher-ups of Donghai Academy a glimmer of hope, even though he was a healing-type soul master.

However, he is exceptionally talented and has the potential to break through level 40 in his first year in the advanced department, with a promising future.

Donghai Academy's investment in Tang Wulin and his group is an investment in the future, while its investment in Liu Tianran and his group yields tangible results right now.

As long as he can stand on the stage of the Tianhai Grand Competition, a 12-year-old 4-ring Soul Master is enough to relieve a lot of pressure on the Donghai City leadership.

If we allocate some resources to him, it's not unrealistic for him to break through to the Healing-type Soul King in three years. After all, who knows how far a Soul Master can grow during his golden three-year cultivation period?
