I’m not aiming for the Dragon Head.Dale quickly waved his hands with an honest smile. But my third brother has a chance. So if I run into you during the Scale Seizing, even though I don’t like fighting, I’m afraid I’ll have to hold you off for a bit.We’ll see if Albert lives up to your high hopes, Baron said dryly.Dale chuckled and didn’t argue. Instead, he looked up at the mottled stone stairs ahead and sighed gloomily.If he could, he really didn’t want to suffer through this final hundred meters.But now that he’d come this far under everyone’s watchful eyes, if he didn’t even try, Isabel would probably beat him up for a month after the Dragon Head competition ended. He was tough enough to take it, but being glared at by her for a month sounded miserable.So in the end, under countless stares, he stepped forward.At once, nine dragons descended upon him.Dale gasped, his slightly chubby face twisting in pain. This power was far stronger than the eight dragons earlier.And the te

He pushed his pseudo 9-star Wind Dragon Soul to the limit, and a faint Wind Dragon Spirit Messenger appeared behind him. Clearly, he was unleashing his power without any reservation.His forehead was covered with bulging veins, and low roars burst from his throat.When Baron’s steps reached 2,970 meters, the Star of Heaven floating behind him let out a mournful wail.The nine dragons coiling around him changed once more. They began to merge, and in an instant, they transformed into a single gigantic fire dragon. The dragon loomed in the void, its dragon eyes staring indifferently at Baron. In the next moment, its body ignited, turning into a wisp of dark golden flame that shot toward him.To onlookers, this dark golden flame did not seem overwhelmingly powerful. But in Baron’s eyes, it was as if the entire world had been set ablaze.This flame had exceeded the limit of what he could endure. If he forced himself to withstand it, he would suffer severe injuries.In that brief moment, Ba

Everyone’s heart gave a slight jolt.That was the Star of Heaven.Though they had been prepared for it, when the legion commanders saw the energy star forming behind Baron, their hearts were still filled with mixed emotions.Baron had truly broken through to the Primary Heavenly Spirit Realm.They also understood that by revealing the Star of Heaven openly, Baron intended to charge to the top in one swift push.As the Star of Heaven manifested behind him, the energy of this world was stirred, surging endlessly toward the star behind him. It was then transformed by the star and poured into Baron’s body.His soul power fluctuations rose steadily in a leap forward.A powerful aura of soul power swept outward, affecting even Laura and Albert, who were not far behind, and slowing their climbing steps.In terms of sheer soul power, the Primary Heavenly Spirit Realm far surpassed the Colorful Soul Body.Each Star of Heaven was like an engine—it not only directly boosted one’s soul power but

Compared to Albert, Dale was truly a figure with no reputation among the younger generation of the Five Dragon Veins. If he had not displayed an astonishingly unique defensive soul technique during the previous Dragon Pool Contest and drawn everyone’s attention, he would have been easily forgotten by everyone.He had almost no presence.Dale was mild-mannered, never quarreled with others, and showed no ambition whatsoever. Naturally, no one paid him any mind.It was precisely for this reason that Lisa was overwhelmed with shock when Dale suddenly caught up to her.How could he do this?!Lisa’s eyes widened in disbelief, staring fixedly at Dale.Startled by her sudden outburst, Dale jumped slightly. He quickly put more than ten paces of distance between them and continued plodding upward.Seeing that Dale was about to overtake her, Lisa’s face turned pale and green in turn. She unleashed all her soul power at once, and her climbing speed surged sharply, pulling ahead of Dale again.How

A moment later, the second tier also reached this point.Albert maintained his steady rhythm and stepped into the fifteen-hundred-meter mark as well.Gray fire dragons manifested out of thin air, circling his body and occasionally piercing into his flesh.A searing burning pain surged deep within him. Albert’s eyebrows furrowed involuntarily. This flame was indeed different from the Nine-Dragon Fire Barrier of Thomas. To be precise, Thomas’ fire was far more overbearing, leaning toward a destructive nature. In contrast, the gray dragon flame here refined at a far more subtle level, making it an even greater test of will.As the dragon flame passed through his body, the impurities deep within his flesh were ignited one after another.Albert took a deep breath, his mind steadfast. At the same time, a glazed radiance gradually bloomed on his body, with three rays of light flowing within the radiance.Three-Light Glazed Body.His body seemed to turn into immaculate glazed crystal, endurin

The silver-haired woman beside him, Peak Master Madeleine of the Dragon Scale Vein, turned to Thomas and asked with a smile, That boy named Albert performed remarkably well in the previous Dragon Pool Contest. I wonder if he can shine as brightly as his father did on this Dragon Ascent?Louis also smiled faintly and said, He must have a chance. Otherwise, Peak Master Thomas would never have agreed to award the Nine-Patterned Sacred Heart Lotus—brought back by the Ancestor—to the winner of the Dragon Head position.At the mention of the Nine-Patterned Sacred Heart Lotus, the courtyard masters of the other veins all changed their expressions. This divine herb held great allure for them as well; they had already spoken to their own Peak Masters, expressing their desire to trade their contributions for it.Thomas replied calmly, It is just an attempt.He then added, But I am determined to obtain the Nine-Patterned Sacred Heart Lotus. Therefore, no matter the outcome, I ask the four Peak M

Hearing the young lady’s order, Koichi Tanaka naturally nodded without hesitation. Jiro Kobayashi assumed that Keiko Ito was used to being served during meals, so he did not think much of it. After all, even when eating out at a restaurant, there were waiters on hand.When they reached the dining room, Keiko Ito and Jiro Kobayashi sat facing each other.The presidential suite was very spacious, and the dining room was equally luxurious. One long Western dining table could easily seat at least twelve people.Thus, as the two sat opposite each other at the table, there was a comfortable distance between them, which put Keiko Ito slightly more at ease.After sitting down, Kobayashi took the initiative to start a conversation with Keiko Ito.Miss Ito, you must have been in Pless City for quite some time, right?Keiko Ito nodded.I’ve been here for twenty days.Kobayashi asked again,Then have you had a chance to visit Pless City properly? It’s quite a beautiful city.Keiko Ito asked calml

Takehiko Ito spoke with a tone of rebuke:Martial arts was only meant to be a hobby for you, something to practice casually. I never intended for you to pour all your time and energy into it.You must understand that you are the young lady of the Ito family. A lady should behave like a lady. What is the point of fighting others in the ring every day?Keiko Ito said firmly:Father, martial arts is the lifelong pursuit I have dedicated myself to! If necessary, I am willing to give up love and marriage for martial arts!Nonsense!Takehiko Ito flew into a rage:You are my daughter, carrying the blood of the Ito family. How could you abandon the continuation of our bloodline for mere martial arts? Do you have any respect for the ancestors of the Ito family?I… Keiko Ito was left speechless.She truly felt guilty after hearing her father’s words, so she quickly said:Father, I know I was wrong. It’s not that I won’t consider marriage at all; I just don’t want to think about it too early at

Even the closest friend and most important business partner of my father would get no special treatment from her, as long as they had no blood relation with her and were not her elder.Her life goals right now are extremely simple: first, win this year’s World University Sanda Competition; then graduate from the University of Tokyo smoothly; and next, start preparing for the next Olympic Games.At the last Olympic Games, she was too young and burdened with heavy studies, so she was unable to participate. But the next Olympics have become the stage she longs for most.She dreams of winning an Olympic gold medal—and not just one.Winning gold at the Olympics and then defending her title at the next Games has become her greatest pursuit in life.Koichi Tanaka stood there with his phone, facing the expectant Jiro Kobayashi, feeling extremely awkward.He never expected his young lady to be so unyielding; after saying so much, she still refused to meet Mr. Kobayashi.Koichi Tanaka had no ch

At that moment, Kara pressed the ignition button. The four side-by-side V8 marine engines roared to life, their low idle sound even more powerful than a supercar.Kara slowly steered the speedboat out of the boathouse, then grinned mischievously at Alan.Master Alan, hold on tight!With that, she suddenly slammed the throttle all the way down!The entire boat exploded with tremendous power and shot forward violently.Although Alan was prepared, he was still shocked by the boat’s overwhelming force.The lake was wide open, so driving the speedboat didn’t require constant attention to the road like on land.She could practically drive with her eyes closed — the whole lake had become Kara’s playground.Her personality was a mix of gentle and bold, so she naturally loved intense, thrilling extreme sports.But to Kara’s surprise, Alan remained completely calm the entire time, which left her a little disappointed.She had invited Alan on the boat hoping to see him look nervous. After all, e

As soon as Jesse saw Alan finish his tea, he quickly refilled the cup respectfully and asked eagerly,Master Alan, I wonder if you’re satisfied with the tea?Alan nodded with a smile.Not bad, Jesse. You must have learned this properly. I never thought someone with your personality could calm down enough to study tea ceremony.Jesse used to be a clueless rich kid.Not only ignorant, but also pretentious, wandering around antique streets buying worthless junk and treating every piece of trash like a treasure.Yet after not seeing him for a while, the guy had really mellowed out and grown more mature.When Jesse heard Alan’s praise, he blushed and quickly explained,Master Alan, I was young and foolish before, and I offended you. Please don’t take it to heart. These days, my uncle has made me stay home and reflect, and learn tea ceremony to cultivate my character. I’m not as impetuous as I used to be…Alan nodded.Good. The worst things about people are impatience and arrogance. That yo

Kazuki Yamamoto said disdainfully, I don’t believe this man is anything special. I, Kazuki Yamamoto, am a national treasure-level fighting master in Japan. The disciple I have trained is also a national treasure-level sanda fighter in Japan. With Keiko’s ability, not only can she dominate university students worldwide—she has what it takes to win gold even at the Olympics, against all active professional fighters. To be honest, Keiko is only joining this competition for practice. Her real goal is to compete in the next Olympic Games and win the gold medal!Dirk nodded and flattered, I know you’re extraordinary, Mr. Yamamoto. Your personal disciple is naturally outstanding. But the young man I’m talking about really has real skills. Look at my right hand!With that, Dirk immediately held out his right hand.When Yamamoto saw the injury on his hand, his expression turned solemn.He asked, This injury is fresh—the blood hasn’t even scabbed over yet. It must have happened within the last
