Chapter 19

Draped in the wind, he dived and dashed.

The arc traced by the Ice Dawn White Dragon was so beautiful that it couldn't help but elicit a gasp of admiration. At the same time, the impact it created was so fierce and domineering that it left people in awe.

Nanye was not someone who was good at hiding his emotions, but to avoid losing his composure, he could only barely suppress his embarrassment and disbelief, causing his face to alternate between red and green.

Zhu Minglang also hadn't expected that Xiaobai would use its tail to slap the Green Dragon's face. He called out with a bitter smile and summoned the mischievous little one back, to avoid further embarrassing Nanye...

In fact, Nanye's dignity was already in tatters. A private duel was one thing, but being easily defeated in front of so many students from the same year was another matter entirely.

Seeing Nanye's stunned expression, Zhu Minglang patted him and said, "Everyone has their low points; there's no need to be so harsh with words. Put your dragon away and cultivate it well. Your dragon still has great potential."

Sigh, Zhu Minglang was a few years older than them and didn't want to stoop to the level of these young men.

But these inexperienced young men were so arrogant!

They just hadn't been beaten enough by the outside world.

Zhu Minglang put on a calm and composed face, feigning benevolence as he comforted his young and impetuous classmates.

In reality, his heart was leaping with joy, almost ready to do a backflip on the spot!

Xiaobai was just too powerful!

Zhu Minglang had thought it would at least need to reach the growth stage to be combat-effective, but he didn't know it was already so formidable in its juvenile stage.

It's back, my glorious days are back!!

Nanye walked to his Green Forest Dragon. The dimness in his eyes revealed just how disappointed he was.

Since the day he obtained the Green Forest Dragon, he had been arrogant and condescending. Those around him, who seemed very excellent, were still struggling in the mud below the Dragon Gate, while he was born above the Dragon Gate, possessing a Green Forest Dragon that would have the strength of a dragon prince once it reached adulthood!

But he never imagined that his true dragon would be defeated in the mud by these ordinary creatures!!

"Roar~~~~ Roar~~~~~~~" The Green Forest Dragon continued to cry in pain.

Nanye raised his hand, still finding it hard to accept, and returned the Green Forest Dragon to his spirit realm.

"Roar!!! Roar!!!!!!"

The Green Forest Dragon's cries grew louder. Just as Nanye thought his dragon was in severe pain, he noticed that the Green Forest Dragon had gotten up on its own and refused to return to the spirit realm to heal.

"Roar!!!!!!!"

The Green Forest Dragon suddenly raised its head and let out a long, fierce roar.

Suddenly, a green light emanated from its body, and countless green vines burst through the rock, growing wildly and entwining around the Green Forest Dragon in an exaggerated manner!

As if in sync with the growth of the vines, the Green Forest Dragon's body also expanded, the crisp sound of bone growth echoing throughout the academy, as if some monstrous creature was about to emerge from the juvenile Green Forest Dragon, becoming even stronger and more terrifying!!

"Advanced???" Nanye's face was full of shock.

Seemingly unwilling to accept the humiliation of defeat, the Green Forest Dragon, in its pain and desire for victory, broke through some constraints and advanced to the growth stage, and it happened right then and there!

From the juvenile stage to the growth stage!!

For ordinary creatures, such an evolution would instantly boost their strength, let alone a true dragon like the Green Forest Dragon!!

Although it would only reach the strength of a dragon prince at the adult stage, a Green Forest Dragon just one step away from leaping over the Dragon Gate could still form an absolute dominance over most creatures!

The students of the academy all showed looks of shock.

A juvenile Green Forest Dragon was already a ferocious creature, but now, growing to four meters tall, it was like facing a raging giant beast, completely on a different level from before!

Due to the humiliation, the Green Forest Dragon was now extremely agitated, as if it wanted to tear everyone apart, scaring the students to retreat.

For a moment, only Zhu Minglang remained in the hall, with the delicate Ice Dawn White Dragon perched on his shoulder, its icy star-like eyes still calmly and coldly observing the drastically changed Green Forest Dragon.

Zhu Minglang looked at the Green Forest Dragon, trying to appear calm.

In the past, he could have easily crushed this Green Forest Dragon even if it advanced ten times, but now... he was panicking.

"Classmate Nanye, see what I said? Your Green Forest Dragon still has great potential. I won the last round, but I'll count this one as a loss, so we're even." Zhu Minglang said to Nanye.

"I haven't recalled my dragon, which means the match isn't over. Ha, a mountain chicken is still a mountain chicken. Don't think that inheriting some wind control abilities can make it comparable to my true dragon!!" Nanye's voice gradually rose.

Just after experiencing his first major defeat in life, he was about to experience a rapid ascent. Normally, the Green Forest Dragon would need at least half a year or even longer to evolve to the growth stage...

A true dragon is a true dragon.

How could it be defeated in such a battle??

From humiliation to disappointment, from disappointment to shock, and from shock to elation, Nanye's facial features began to distort as various emotions intertwined.

But this distortion was one of ecstatic joy.

"I admit..." Zhu Minglang was helpless and was about to concede.

Before he could finish speaking, the Ice Dawn White Dragon on his shoulder spread its magnificent white wings and flew back to the stone platform to face the Green Forest Dragon again.

"Xiaobai." Zhu Minglang didn't want Xiaobai to get hurt, as Nanye and his Green Forest Dragon, due to the previous humiliation, would definitely not hold back.

The Ice Dawn White Dragon didn't return, maintaining its cold and noble demeanor even in the face of the drastically different Green Forest Dragon.

The only difference was that it now displayed a fighting spirit it hadn't shown before!

Its current aura was very much like that of the white dragon that once soared through the sky, looking down on all creatures!

"Are you getting serious?" Zhu Minglang felt Xiaobai's fighting spirit, and his own emotions began to change.

Yes...

Although the opponent was much weaker compared to past enemies, it brought Zhu Minglang a feeling of a flame burning in his heart at this moment.

After drifting for so many years, everything was starting anew, and this familiar feeling had never been forgotten!
