Three figures were quickly moving inside the Thundergod Academy. It was an old man and two beautiful ladies.

"So you're saying my Ling'er is running through the rankings of your academy one after another since the third hour of midnight?" Xiao Fei'er showed a disbelieving look as she questioned the sanity of the old man, "Are you sure old age is going through you, Old Lu?"

Lu Tao waved his hands in irritation as he argued, "Ugh, shut it. No matter how old I am, I am not going to go senile. I was still the previous Principal of this place, so you should treat me with respect when we are here. Why don't you call me… um, Old Thunderlord?"

"Don't waste your time Old Lu and just tell me what is currently happening. What do you mean he's decimating through your rankings? Did he enter the 80th rank or something?"

Lu Tao shook his head as he exclaimed with great passion, "That son of yours is already at the 67th place when it was noon. As of now, I think he is already nearing the 50th place. And because he is betting tons of points as he goes up the rankings, he's racking up points and I fear that once he's over this whole thing, he will buy all the items in my Thunder Treasury. Your Family is going to bankrupt my academy."

Xiao Fei'er showed an innocent look on her face as she asked without a hint of a condescending tone, "Is your academy starting to accept useless fodders now? Thirty years ago, you said you were only accepting geniuses, have you change your mind already?"

Lu Tao knew that Xiao Fei'er was not making fun of his Thundergod Academy as the concern she showed was genuine. But that genuine concern of hers was much more painful than any hurtful words.

"The quality has not decreased, for what it is worth, the budding youths of the academy had actually grown in terms of quality. We have at least three monstrous genius appearing. Those three are the top rankers of this academy."

"Then why is my son still beating your so-called geniuses to a pulp then?"

"That's what I want to know. What the hell are you teaching your kids to make them this strong? Enough of this, we are nearing the Thunder Dome, you can see for yourself what kind of monstrous strength your son is showing."

The Thunder Dome was one of the biggest places in the whole academy. It could hold over 300,000 people at the same time without a problem.

Yet at this moment, the Thunder Dome was being overflown by students who wanted to witness the fights happening inside.

Xiao Fei'er and Wang Yue followed Lu Tao through a secret path that led to a room for people with the highest authority. They entered a room where they can oversee the entire Thunder Dome and this included the circular stage.

In the middle of the stage were two people, a beastman with the characteristics of a bear and a human who was standing confidently.

"The one standing on the right would be the top 51st ranker of the academy, Gou Xiong. Opposite of him would be the one who is quickly making his way towards the top of the Roaring Thunder Board, Wang Ling."

Xiao Fei'er focused on her eyes. She observed Wang Ling's expressions and face, his stature and qi, his temperament and most importantly his eyes that was shining with life.

It was such a sight for her to see. But something in his eyes that caught her attention. A hint of unknown sadness and worry was hidden underneath those unique pupils of his.

That sadness was hidden deep within his heart that even with her deep understanding, she could see through the mysterious eyes of her son.

Her emotions became a wild and uncontrollable, Xiao Fei'er could not understand what it was.

[What caused you so much grief, my son?]

=====

Wang Ling could hear the booming cheers of the students. He had a confident smile his face as he stood there with his fist eased up.

He was holding no sword, his body had already been sharp as a sword and it was already sharp enough to cut anything that gets in its way.

"Senior Gou Xiong, let us have a good match." Wang Ling showed a warm smile as if the person in front of him was not his enemy but a friend. This smile caused Gou Xiong to shiver.

Harrumphing, Gou Xiong spoke in a wild manner, "I came here because yesterday, you have gone over and challenged everyone in the ranking board who are above you after your challengers stopped coming. I thought you were someone stupid and I was ready to see you get beaten up earlier on, but who would have thought you would reach me?"

Wang Ling shook his head, "Those who stood there before you basically said the same thing. I respect my seniors but, is everyone in the ranking like you and the rest?"

Gou Xiong had his ears twitching as he heard the insults flowing seamlessly from Wang Ling's mouth.

His body began to heat up and enlarge. Fur was appearing on the back of his hand and his aura was beginning to become wild.

"Those who came before me may have said the same thing, but I assure you, I am not like those weaklings. I heard you have a sturdy body and no one had made you bring out your Saint Soul, but I will surely make you use all your cards and beat you to a bloody pulp."

Gou Xiong was quickly transforming from a human with a stature resembling a bear to a bear that resembles a human.

His body had thick fur acting like armor appearing all over the place. Black fur was now covering his body and as he finished transforming, Gou Xiong called for his Saint Soul and a booming roar was heard.

A bear that was ten meters large stood behind him. It had scars all over its body and was emanating the aura of a wild beast.

"Now, let us fight to the fullest!"

Wang Ling observes this happen and had to strictly restrict himself into not attacking him while he was busy showing off his transformation and while he was in the process of transformation.

[I could break his neck right here right now if I use my supreme qi, but I need to wait and I can't kill.

This is hard. Restricting your intent after getting it to start awakening is hard.]

Wang Ling was slowly reawakening his instincts of killing when he was roaming the lands. But now, he had to inhibit it else his plans would go down the drain.

[I already made close to 20,000,000 with just the random idiots, but now, I have already passed the 50,000,000 points I needed for the Everchanging Holy Stone.]

Wang Ling was smiling maniacally on the inside. The points the rankers had with them were too much. They were willing to bet 1,000,000 points in a fight after some 'light' trash talks and baits from Wang Ling.

Now, he had already gone over the 50,000,000 points mark he needed for the ore he wanted. Right now, he was already betting 2,500,000 points for the spot of 51st seat and the chance to beat him, the one who is known as the [Peerless Saint].

Undefeatable even after consecutive fights.

His fame had already spread all over the academy but his blatant challenge to the rankers and beating them a day after had made his name even more known.

There were some who were cheering for him to continue his meteoric rise. But there were even more people wanting to see him fall.

His meteoric had caught the envying attention of the other students and they were unhappy about the attention he was receiving.

But Wang Ling couldn't care less about the tantrums they were making. He was more interested in beating the shit out of his opponents and getting points.

His ideal scenario of ransacking a faction was about to come true.

"Wang Ling, you're going to be incapacitated for a while after this! Take this, [Beast King Fist]!" Gou Xiong dashed forward as he punched directly towards Wang Ling, he was laughing hysterically as he shouted, "Break!"

But Wang Ling just watched his antics and took a stance with both hands on the side. Smirking, white flames appeared from both his hands. The flames danced wildly but as it did, Wang Ling controlled it as he circulated his angelic qi and leaned over his Holy Lord bloodline.

Utilizing the instinctive manipulation of elements from the Holy Lord bloodline, Wang Ling threw a blazing punch and then…

Boom!

An explosion was caused by two fist meeting.

Tak! Tak! Tak!

Wang Ling stumbled and took three steps back. But Gou Xiong who had his Saint Soul out and had undergone a transformation stood his ground.

Smiling, Gou Xiong said, "That's the first time you brought that flames out, correct? Those are useless!"

Wang Ling turned to look at his flames and then at Gou Xiong. With a pitying look, Wang Ling gathered the flames that was coming out of his hands and started creating a ball in the middle of his palms.

The flames were being controlled by Wang Ling perfectly. He had achieved an almost perfect grasp in his control of flames weeks ago and right now, he was going show that his Heavenly Flames is nothing to laugh at.

"My Flames is weak? That's only because I fear that you will turn into a roasted bear if I have it any higher. But because of your words, I will show you how the flames of Heavens can purify the world!"

Wang Ling's words echoed in the ears of those present as a golden light flashed out of his body.

Two golden halos formed behind Wang Ling's head and as of this moment, the flames that was already moving like a flowing river was now slithering around as it was alive.

With Wang Ling's thought, the flames flickered and as he activated his bloodline, the temperature of the Heavenly Flames became to rise.

A ball of white flames was slowly getting bigger and as it did, Wang Ling's qi was slowly getting devoured.

Gou Xiong frowned after seeing this ball of blazing white flames. His instincts were telling him to run away. But he didn't want to turn tail and act like a coward. His pride and ego wouldn't let him do so.

So, Gou Xiong stood his grounds and screamed as he dashes forth, "Break him! [Beast King Fist]!"

Once again, Gou Xiong pounced at Wang Ling. But Wang Ling who had already gathered the flames on top of his palms smirked.

The blazing ball of white flames was directed directly at Gou Xiong and as Wang Ling smirked, the ball of flames flew out like a cannonball sent out to purify the world of its impurities.

The impurities would be the ones foolish enough to take on the one Holy Lord of Heavens.

Gou Xiong dashed forward and met with the ball of flames that was the size of an ordinary ball. But as his fist came into contact with the flames, scorching heat invaded his body.

Wang Ling who had some control over the ball when it was sent out waited and waited until he suddenly clenched his fist.

Boom!

The ball of white flames exploded and Gou Xiong who was right in front of it was sent flying through the air.

He skidded on the ground and before he stopped, he flipped a couple more times. Wang Ling watched the steam come out Gou Xiong's body. His pupils were rolled back.

Seeing this Wang Ling quoted, "I'll call this [White Sun]." He had created a new technique.

He then watched Gou Xiong get carried out and with a stretch, he waited for the next sucker to walk up and face him. He was craving for more points.
