Fire and ice, these are entirely opposing attributes.
On the Continent, there also exist various different attributes. Due to attribute mutations, all sorts of oddities are not uncommon.
But fire and ice, how could these possibly coexist within a single person?
Won't these two completely opposing attributes conflict with each other inside the body and then cause an explosive death?
How many more secrets that they do not know about are hidden within Xu Ran?
Whenever they think they know Xu Ran well enough, Xu Ran would appear and once again change their perceptions.
"Tutor Ruo Lin, shall we continue? If we do, I won't hold back," Xu Ran said with a smile.
"You, you've won..."
"I am no match for you."
Ruo Lin looked dazedly at the handsome young man in front of her, her heart suddenly trembling.
This...
Is Xu Ran still a normal person?
At such an age, he is definitely not weaker than those freaks in the Inner Court.
Each year, Canaan Academy's outer branch selects the fifty strongest to join the Inner Court. And those freshmen who enter the Inner Court have at most the Great Fighter Level, while some of the weaker ones are merely high-grade Dou Shi.
And Xu Ran, who hasn't even reported to Canaan Academy yet, had already reached the standards of those outstanding elder students of Canaan Academy.
How could she not be astonished?
That chill just now was too terrifying. If Xu Ran had made his full effort, would she have been turned into an ice sculpture?
What exactly is Xu Ran's "Cultivation Level", Dou Spirit? A Dou Spirit couldn't possibly defeat her so easily! Could it be Douwang?
At this thought, Ruo Lin's beautiful face changed.
A Douwang Level could enter the top twenty of the Inner Court!
This, this, this...
Did she just discover a treasure?
"My God!"
"Tutor Ruo Lin actually conceded voluntarily?" Everyone looking at the seven-to-eight-meter giant ice sculpture between Xu Ran and Ruo Lin felt utterly shocked. The sudden transformation of water into ice! In this scorching weather, the ice sculpture seemed even more astonishing.
Moreover, Xu Ran did not seem to have any preparation beforehand.
In just an instant, he was able to channel Dou Qi and cause such a huge commotion?
This...
At this moment, everyone was stunned into silence.
They couldn't imagine what kind of freak Xu Ran was. They had never seen such a person from their childhood until now.
"What is your "Cultivation Level"?" Ruo Lin stared at Xu Ran with burning eyes. At this moment, she didn't feel ashamed. If Xu Ran were mediocre, losing to him would be embarrassing, but if Xu Ran was an unparalleled genius, losing to him wouldn't be shameful; instead, it could become a splendid tale.
"Douhuang, I guess,"
Xu Ran shrugged.
In the Yunlan Sect, he was rumored to be a Douhuang.
In a few days, when the story about him and Nalan Yanran at Yunlan Sect spreads, they would all know.
Canaan Academy would definitely investigate, and these things couldn't be concealed from them. Maybe even his identity as a Seventh Rank Alchemist couldn't be kept hidden.
But he didn't care; such strength was nothing to him.
If he really wanted to reveal his strength, the entire Continent would tremble.
However, now was not the time; he hadn't finished flirting with all the girls yet. Why show off?
Is showing off more fun than flirting with girls?
Why not flirt while showing off? Isn't that delightful?
Douhuang!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
God damn it, their gazes had completely stiffened.
Were they being joked with?
And it was just the beginning, yet he was a Douhuang?
They had just barely started cultivating to the Fighter level, and Xu Ran was already a Douhuang.
They had just set off, and Xu Ran had already reached the finish line.
Tutor Ruolin no longer dared to underestimate Xu Ran. Although a Douhuang seemed somewhat unreal, after being duped once, she had already begun to believe Xu Ran's words.
"Maybe a Douhuang, or perhaps a bit stronger than a Douhuang," Xu Ran said indifferently.
A pair of powerful wings appeared behind him. With the wings spread, Xu Ran appeared in the sky.
Dou Qi Hua Yi!
That was the symbol of Douwang and Douhuang strong ones!
Anyone with even a slight understanding of Dou Qi would know what Dou Qi Hua Yi represented.
As long as one could perform Dou Qi Hua Yi, they must be stronger than a Douwang!
Following that, they felt an immense pressure emanating from Xu Ran's body. That pressure seemed ancient, and although it wasn't directed at them, it made them deeply respectful and admiring.
Such greatness!
This powerful feeling only allowed them to worship and harbored no other designs!
Xu Ran revealed his strength so that the people of Canaan Academy would know about this strong one. He wouldn't be heading to Canaan Academy anytime soon. Nonsense, Xiao Yi Xian, the beauty Yun Yun, and Queen Medusa hadn't been won over yet, so why go to Canaan Academy for?
Now, revealing his strength in front of everyone would also bring many benefits to Xiao Yu, Xun Er, and Xiao Mei.
Once his news spread to Canaan Academy, no one would dare to lay hands on them. Canaan Academy would also value them because of their ties and his identity.
This was what he wanted.
Otherwise, with the charm of Xun Er and the others, how could that be allowed to stand?
"Douhuang? This kind of demeanor, definitely a Douhuang. It's even a bit more imposing than the Douhuangs I've seen before, almost on par with the Elders," said Tutor Ruolin. At that moment, she was at a complete loss.
An originally simple recruitment had unexpectedly turned into this scenario.
Xu Ran's strength was even greater than those of the Inner Court tutors of Canaan Academy.
How could they teach him?
Although Xu Ran was a new student, once he entered Canaan Academy, he would be powerful enough to become one of the most monstrous figures there.
"Douhuang, huh? This guy actually dared to hide this from me!" Xiao Yu was gnashing her teeth. Seeing Xu Ran looking so spirited and triumphant, her mouth slightly ajar, she was surprised yet also felt a bit of resentment. She had thought Xu Ran was a Douwang, but who would have guessed that he was actually a Douhuang Strong One.
A Douhuang was an absolute top contender throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire!
A Douhuang was already someone who could establish a sect!
In the Jia Ma Empire, which of the Douhuang Strong Ones wasn't already in their seventies or eighties? And Xu Ran was still so young! Then, if Xu Ran continued to cultivate, what kind of a strong one would he become?
The others were also looking at Xu Ran with their mouths agape.
Xue Ni, along with Xiao Yu's other friends, all gazed at Xu Ran with shining eyes, as if looking at the brightest star in the night sky.
Does this world really have geniuses? If not, what were they seeing now?
What girl wouldn't like such an outstanding man?
Previously, seeing that Xu Ran had two such extraordinary beauties by his side and that he had an unusual relationship with Xiao Yu, they had been somewhat surprised. Now, they fully understood.
For such an outstanding man, even if he married ten or a hundred, so what?
His brilliance in other areas was enough to overshadow this flaw!
They believed that, maybe even those monstrous seniors in the Inner Court might not compare to Xu Ran. A Douhuang was at least strong enough to be in the top five, right?
