Time flew, and half a month passed quickly.

The first ray of sunlight shone through the crystal glass window and shone on the fair and handsome face.

Wisps of soul power flowed on the surface of his body, brushing his elegant black hair.

On the bed, a black-haired youth sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, quietly meditating.

"Phew …"

The golden Soul Power flowed along his meridians in an orderly manner, completing a large cycle. Finally, it flowed into his dantian and turned into pure Soul Power.

The ice-blue Ice Phoenix martial soul and the pure white Immortal Begonia martial soul floated quietly in his dantian. With the infusion of soul power, the two martial souls seemed to have a life of their own. The phoenix spread its wings, and the begonia danced. The two martial souls complemented each other, presenting a sacred and auspicious scene in the youth's body.

"Boom"

The youth's body suddenly emitted a bright golden radiance, instantly illuminating the entire bedroom.

[Level up successful. Congratulations on reaching the level 22]

Fang Xuan let out a long breath of turbid air. His clear eyes were filled with joy. After half a month of boring and bitter cultivation, he had finally broken through today.

Leveling up once in half a month. This cultivation speed would shock others if it were to spread.

Next, he opened the interface and checked his current attributes.

[Strongest Swordsman System]

[Host: Fang Xuan]

[Level: LV22]

[Title: Soul Grandmaster]

[Soul Power: 0/220]

[Proficiency: Basic Sword Drawing Technique (99/100)]

[God's Bestowed Blade: 0]

[Martial Souls: Ice Phoenix Soul (Elementary 57/100),

immortal nine heart begonia (Elementary 5/100)]

[Talents: Frost Blade, Healing Blade]

His soul power level had increased quite quickly, but his Sword Drawing Technique proficiency still hadn't broken through. The speed of his Martial Soul Duplication was also very slow.

At this rate, it would take at least a year for his Martial Soul to accumulate enough proficiency to level up.

In addition, his Sword Drawing Technique seemed to be stuck at a bottleneck. Although the success rate of his Sword Drawing Technique was very high these days, he was still unable to break through to a higher level.

All he needed was an opportunity.

Fang Xuan's eyes were resolute as he gently stroked the White Sabre, Shadowless. He felt that his Sword-drawing Technique could be even stronger. All he needed was an opportunity to raise it to a higher realm.

If he wanted to continue improving his Sword drawing technique, it would be useless to just train hard here.

A battle of life and death might give him a chance to break through.

This time, he didn't have to take the risk to enter the Soul Beast Forest.

This was because the Heaven Dou Academy's annual Genius Battle was about to begin.

"Battle of the geniuses"

Fang Xuan muttered to himself, his face flushed with excitement.

This battle that gathered the strongest students of the academy would surely be incomparably exciting. He could not help but tighten his grip on the hilt of his sword, his heart filled with anticipation.

…

The Battle of the Geniuses was an annual event for the Heaven Dou Academy. The goal was to test the results of the student's cultivation in the past year. At the same time, they would use the competition and battles between the students to improve their strength.

In terms of scale, this competition was second only to the Continental Elite Academy Tournament which was held every five years.

When the time came, the Heaven Dou Academy's elite teachers, three Soul Douluo, and members of the empire's imperial family would all come to the academy to watch the competition. It would be the focus of everyone's attention.

A competition like this that attracted so much attention would naturally be rich in prizes. The prizes for the Genius battles every year were extremely rare, and countless people coveted them.

Although there were no hundred-thousand-year soul rings or rare treasures like soul's bones, there were all sorts of treasures that could increase one's soul power.

Soul tools, money, nobility, fame, and so on.

As long as you were strong enough, you could obtain everything you wanted here.

This morning, the weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly.

On the main campus, there was a clean and quiet cultivation field.

A beautiful teacher in her twenties was leading a dozen or so students in cultivation.

This female teacher had a head of fiery red hair, a dainty face, cherry-red lips, and a colorful dress that outlined her astonishing curves. Her every frown and smile caused many boys to salivate.

This was a mature beauty who had fully matured. She had full breasts, perky buttocks, and a slender waist that could be grasped with one hand. She constantly exuded boundless seduction and was not something that thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls could compare to.

With such a goddess as a teacher, many male students would wake up laughing in their dreams. For most of the class, their gazes were fixed on the teacher.

"Xue Bing! You better be serious"

The female teacher's almond-shaped eyes were wide open as she waved a scarlet whip in her jade-like hands.

She viciously whipped the student who had been staring at her breasts in a daze and sent him flying.

Many students saw this scene and secretly laughed.

This female teacher's name was Ruo Lan and she was in charge of teaching a class of Earth-grade students. Among the twenty-five Earth grade teachers, she was the strongest and her teaching results were the most outstanding. She was truly the number one teacher of the Earth grade.

Although she was a woman, she was a rank 49 Soul Ancestor. If there were no accidents, she would be able to obtain her fifth soul ring in at most a year and break through to the Soul King realm.

Teacher Ruo Lan's temper was as fiery as her figure. As long as the empire's fourth prince, Xue Bing dared to waste time in class, she would beat him up.

In the Heaven Dou Academy, regardless of title, bloodline, or identity, as long as one enters the academy, one would have to follow the academy's rules and obey the teachers' instructions. Otherwise, these hedonistic sons of the various countries would all become little emperors.

Here, there were no princes or nobles, only strength and rank.

"I'm sorry, teacher."

Xue Bing held his left cheek which had been slapped red as he awkwardly walked into the group. The rest of the students were still secretly laughing.

Just as this group of students was listening to Teacher Ruo Lan's guidance with great interest, each of them had an intoxicated expression.

There was also a student who was holding a blade and coldly sitting under a tree at the side. He was like a handsome man who stood aloof from the world, completely out of place with this group of students who were desperately training.

"Oh, what a rare thing. His Highness, who is always late and leaves early, is in the mood to come to class today."

Suddenly, Teacher Ruo Lan turned around and placed her hands on her waist as she looked at the black-haired youth under the ancient tree with a teasing tone.

"If I remember correctly, today should be the day of the exam." Fang Xuan glanced at Teacher Ruo Lan indifferently.

"Ah? You're still preparing to take the exam"

Ruo Lan covered her mouth in shock and said, "I already submitted your results yesterday. You can pack up and go home now."

"What did you say?!!"

Fang Xuan's eyelids twitched wildly.
