X-Dragon Era

Thunderbolt was Xin Yun's trump card, but precisely because of this, he couldn't casually reveal it, and even... relying on Thunderbolt, he could keep charging ahead, but with the experience from his previous life, Xin Yun understood that talent was most important. Anyone who relied on formidable powers would inevitably fail to become a top-tier master in the end.

Speaking of power, Xin Yun from his past life was probably even stronger. As a Fire Series Divine Dragon, launching Violent Fireballs like rockets, a barrage would bring down many opponents, but what of it?

While experts all possessed powerful attacks, not everyone with a powerful attack was an expert. What truly indicated whether one could become a real expert wasn't just this, hence... Thunderbolt could only be the trump card, never the reliance.

However, what troubled Xin Yun was, if he didn't use Thunderbolt, what should he use? Acidic Dragon Breath? Or acid spray? These seemed unlikely to threaten the opponents. After much thought, Xin Yun finally concluded that, relying on Yinglong's characteristic of ignoring physical attacks, close combat would be his only choice.

Once the distance closed, not only could he attack with his dragon body, but the most important thing was that the closer the distance, the harder it was to dodge the acid spray. The threat of Acidic Dragon Breath increased significantly, and if hit squarely, he could still defeat his opponent.

After the three-month summer break ended, the academy started again. On the first day of school, as was customary, there would be a public class for the whole year. Led by Instructor Musha, a group headed to the training field in front of the large classroom.

On the spacious training field, teams in red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, white, and gray lined up neatly, yet none dared to enter the large classroom ahead of time.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Xin Yun found these regulations set by the academy quite tedious. It was absurd to arrive and not be allowed in, and Class Yi would always wait until all the other classes had arrived before making an appearance, which was utterly boring.

While he was silently shaking his head, the sound of crisp and chaotic footsteps came from the passage. Turning his head, students from Class Yi, clad in red, yellow, and blue, finally walked towards them.

Although Xin Yun wasn't impressed, looking around, envy was evident on the faces of the other students. And the students from Class Yi, each with a smug look, carried their chins high, chatting and laughing with friends as they walked, acting as if they hadn't seen the ten teams waiting on the field.

"Arrogant?" Yes, that was it, arrogant. Under Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying's lead, the students of Class Yi chatted and laughed as they walked through the corridor in front of the door into the classroom, and only after the last student from Class Yi entered did the other classes begin to move.

Just like the past twenty or thirty public classes, Xin Yun's miscellaneous Class Eleven was still standing at the back of the classroom, leaning against the wall to listen. Xin Yun was already somewhat accustomed to this treatment. Whether sitting or standing, wasn't it all the same when listening?

Lost in thought, a graceful figure walked in through the side door. Seeing this, Yi Luo's clear voice rang out—everyone stand up!

Following Yi Luo's voice, all students stood up neatly and watched as Instructor Mei Wu swayed to the podium. It wasn't until then that Yan Qingying crisply commanded—Salute!

As Yan Qingying's voice sounded, all students from the academy bent their bodies slightly in a bow to salute the instructor on the podium. Observing this scene, Instructor Mei Wu smiled sweetly and crisply said, "Alright, alright... everyone sit down."

Hearing the instructor's words, all students straightened up before taking their seats one by one. Meanwhile, Instructor Mei Wu looked around and then spoke sternly, "There are three months left until the prohibition on dueling is lifted.

Three months from today, everyone will have been at Combat Dragon Academy for a full year, and at that time, the unique challenge rules of the Combat Dragon Academy will officially take effect! From then on, the order of ranking will no longer be determined by talent, aptitude, or potential. Since it's Combat Dragon Academy, strength naturally becomes the standard!"

Hiss... Hearing Instructor Mei Wu's words, all students collectively drew in a sharp breath. There were those who were nervous, excited, apprehensive, and fearful—various states of being, all different.

After a pause, Instructor Mei Wu continued, "So, regardless of whether you have good talent or not, whether your aptitude is high or low, and no matter if your potential is great or small, all of this will become irrelevant in three months. The only thing that will determine everything is your strength. Therefore... if you do not wish to be eliminated, it's not too late to start working hard now!"

Snort... Hearing Instructor Mei Wu's words, Xin Yun couldn't help but snort sarcastically. The six months of the first half-year, plus the three-month summer break, how could it possibly not be too late after all this time?

You should know that even the prodigiously talented Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying, who had been working furiously from day one, couldn't be caught up to by just anyone after they had worked so hard for so long. And... Xin Yun did not believe they would relax in the forthcoming three months.

It wasn't just Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying; in fact, all those in the higher rankings had a very strong sense of crisis. Who wouldn't work hard? Hence... the position of the top student was difficult to shake, and the second and last seats were no different. The greatest changes were likely to affect the ordinary students.
