Chapter 48 Yan, Xie Yue's Confidence.
"Dai Mubai, the prince of the Star Luo Empire!"
"Evil-Eyed White Tiger, a top-tier beast spirit! Double the physical attributes? This reward is incredibly useful! It's practically the dream ability of any power-attack type soul master!"
"Shrek Academy has another one on the list, and it's a Star Luo prince."
"What's the background of this academy? First the Evil Fire Phoenix, then the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, does it only recruit geniuses?"
"..."
The continent was shaken once again.
The identity of a prince of the Star Luo Empire carries immense weight.
Deep within the Star Luo Empire's palace.
A young man, somewhat resembling Dai Mubai but more imposing and possessing a more profound aura, stood with his hands behind his back.
Looking at Dai Mubai's name and information on the sky, his eyes were sharp as an eagle.
He was Dai Mubai's older brother, Crown Prince Davis of the Star Luo Empire.
"Mu Bai…it seems you haven't wasted your time in the Heaven Dou Empire."
Davis muttered to himself, his tone unreadable, but the subtle fluctuations of soul power emanating from his body revealed his inner turmoil.
"Almost breaking through to Soul Master, and even receiving recognition and rewards from the Genius Ranking…my good brother, you finally have the qualifications to be my opponent again."
The competitive atmosphere intensified silently.
Beside him stood a woman with a hot figure and alluring face.
Zhu Zhuyun chuckled, "Weis, it seems we need to reassess your brother. Shrek Academy…seems quite formidable."
Davis snorted coldly, "No matter what, he can't escape my grasp. The rules for inheriting the Star Luo throne don't rely on a ranking, but on absolute strength!"
Heaven Dou Empire.
Emperor Xue Ye looked at the ranking, his brows furrowing slightly.
The prince of the Star Luo Empire was on the Heaven Dou Empire's academy's list, and his talent was recognized, which made him feel somewhat complicated.
On one hand, this demonstrates the Heavenly Dou Empire's ability to cultivate talent within its academies; on the other hand, it also signifies a potential threat.
"Your Majesty, Prince Dai Mubai at Shrek Academy might serve as a link in maintaining relations between our two countries," an old minister whispered.
Emperor Xue Ye remained noncommittal, simply saying, "Let's continue watching and see how many more talents from my Heavenly Dou Empire will occupy."
At Shrek Academy's temporary lodging, cheers erupted once more.
"Brother Dai, you're awesome!"
Ma Hongjun was the first to jump up, even more excited than if he himself had made the list.
"Your physical abilities have doubled! Your Evil-Eyed White Tiger is even more ferocious now! In future fights, you can hold the line while I breathe fire from behind—it'll be invincible!"
Oscar chuckled, "Exactly! With you in the front, Brother Dai, we'll be safer behind you. Give me a few mushroom sausages later, and I'll carry you!"
Dai Mubai felt the surging power within him and his significantly enhanced physique; a glint of light flashed in his captivating eyes.
He clenched his fist, his knuckles cracking, and said confidently, "It seems I need to work even harder. I can't let this ranking down."
Flander's face lit up with a smile as he looked at the students who had made it onto the list, adjusting his glasses.
He thought to himself, "It seems Shrek Academy is going to shine on this genius ranking this time. Once we make a name for ourselves, recruitment will be much easier... hehe."
He was already imagining the academy bustling with students.
Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly, his eyes filled with satisfaction and even deeper anticipation.
"Mu Bai and Hong Jun are both on the list. With Xiao San's talent, his ranking will definitely be even higher."
"I just wonder what positions Beidou Academy and the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall will occupy..."
He was already calculating in his mind.
What would the final ranking of this genius ranking be?
This was of great reference value for his research on martial spirit theory and the formulation of future plans.
The Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong sat high on her throne, flanked by the three most outstanding young talents of the Spirit Hall:
Xie Yue, Yan, and Hu Liena.
They were also watching the announcement of the genius ranking.
Seeing Dai Mubai, Feng Xiaotian, and others on the list, Xie Yue's eyes remained calm, as if he were looking at some insignificant names.
Yan's lips curled into a disdainful smile, clearly not taking these "mortals" seriously.
Bibi Dong's gaze swept over the three most outstanding geniuses of the Spirit Hall, and she spoke calmly, her voice carrying an invisible pressure.
"Nana, Xie Yue, Yan, in your opinion, where do you rank on this genius ranking?"
Yan answered without hesitation, his voice loud and confident, with faint fluctuations of blazing flames around him.
"Your Holiness, with our talent and strength, securing a top-three position is absolutely no problem!"
"Whether it's the Star Luo Prince or any mutated martial soul, they are all insignificant before the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall!"
He had absolute confidence in his Flame Lord martial soul.
Although Xie Yue didn't speak, his slightly raised chin and sharp eyes showed that he agreed with Yan's statement.
His Moon Blade craved blood and feared no opponent of his generation.
However, Hu Liena gently shook her head.
Her charming face carried a composure and wisdom beyond her years.
Her red lips parted slightly, her voice carrying a unique magnetism: "Yan, we mustn't be careless. Have you forgotten about the Beidou Academy?"
She looked up at the sky, a hint of seriousness flashing in her beautiful eyes: "Ao Yin, who possesses the Elemental Dragon Martial Soul, seems to be around our age."
"And Ye Lingling, the Nine-Heart Begonia Soul Master whom Li Bai of the Beidou Academy personally rescued... their rankings are probably not low."
"They might even... pose a threat to us."
She was meticulous and considered things thoroughly.
Especially Li Bai's astonishing sword strike, which filled her with apprehension towards the Beidou Academy.
Hearing the words "Beidou Academy," Yan's arrogance softened somewhat.
Xie Yue also frowned slightly.
Clearly, the terrifying strength Li Bai displayed at the Spirit Hall not long ago had left a deep shadow on them.
This also filled them with apprehension towards the mysterious Beidou Academy.
How could an academy with such powerful figures produce mediocre students?
Bibi Dong took in the reactions of the three, feeling even more satisfied with Hu Liena's calmness and foresight.
She said in a deep voice, her words echoing across the square, "Nana is right."
"Beidou Academy is a formidable opponent we must take seriously. This Genius Ranking is not only an opportunity for you to make a name for yourselves, but also a benchmark for measuring the strength of the younger generation across the continent."
"Watch closely, see just how many talents this world truly has."
Her gaze returned to the sky.
The rankings continued to be published, and the increasingly fierce competition was about to begin.
Could the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation sweep the top three spots?
How high could Beidou Academy's dark horse rise?
Did Shrek Academy still have any hidden monsters?
All of this tugged at Bibi Dong's heart.
The eyes of the entire continent were focused on the golden, shimmering sky, awaiting the unveiling of the next name.
The anticipation and tension in the air almost solidified.
