Even the Holy Spirit Cult had been forced to reside in the shadows due to the existence of Yun Ming, and in the end, they had only been able to kill him after mobilizing countless powerful beings and deploying two godslayer missiles.

Even then, if it hadn't been for Yun Ming's duty to protect the academy and its students, there was no one in this world that could've killed him.

In Guan Yue's opinion, Yun Ming had made the wrong decision. If he had fled with Yali at the time, no one would've been able to stop him. After that, he could exact his revenge on the Spirit Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Cult, and with his power, it would be far easier to rebuild Shrek Academy than it was for Tang Wulin.

After all, with Yun Ming at the helm, all of the Shrek Academy's alumni from all time periods would've definitely flocked to his side at a moment's notice.

However, he hadn't done that. Instead, he had sacrificed himself to protect the glory of Shrek Academy. Almost all of Shrek Academy's teachers had perished, but not even a single student had been killed. This was the spirit of Shrek Academy!

As such, despite the fact that Guan Yue was of the opinion that Yun Ming had made the wrong decision, he couldn't help but admire Yung Ming at the same time. In the wake of the bombing, he realized that his power wasn't the only thing inferior to Yun Ming; his mental state was also very lackluster in comparison.

If he had been in Yun Ming's place, he wouldn't have been able to make the same decision, particularly when Yun Ming had a wife whom he loved and cherished so deeply. The fact that he was able to sacrifice himself so decisively was a clear indication of how strong his sense of responsibility for Shrek Academy was.

At this moment, the young man standing across the river from him was Yun Ming's successor. Guan Yue had been looking forward to sparring with Tang Wulin for a long time as he wanted to see if he really did have what it took to be Yun Ming's successor.

As such, he wasn't going to be holding back at all.

His Sky Crossing Divine Spear continued to glow with faint white light, and he didn't allow Tang Wulin to attack first just because he was the senior. He stepped forward with his left foot, and thrust his Sky Crossing Divine Spear through the air from over 100 meters away.

In the instant that the Sky Crossing Divine Spear was thrust toward him, Tang Wulin's essence, energy, and spirit had been elevated to their peak.

In that instant, he understood that Guan Yue was regarding him as an equal.

The air around the Sky Crossing Divine Spear began to warp slightly, and in that instant, all of the surrounding scenery seemed to have fallen away. Everything had disappeared with this spear thrust, and the only thing that remained was a spear projection that resembled a gentle breeze.

The spear projection flashed through the air and instantly reached Tang Wulin, but his Golden Dragon Spear remained completely still.

All of a sudden, Tang Wulin raised his Golden Dragon Spear and gripped onto its shaft with both hands before raising it upward.

A crisp clang rang out as the Sky Crossing Divine Spear appeared, seemingly out of thin air, and it was directly opposed by the Golden Dragon Spear. As soon as the sound of the clashing spears rang out, all of the insect chirps and bird songs in the surrounding area instantly faded.

Guan Yue appeared right before Tang Wulin before pulling back his spear, then thrust it forward like lightning in the most concise attack.

Tang Wulin also reacted in a very concise manner, bringing down his Golden Dragon Spear and using its shaft to block the tip of the Sky Crossing Divine Spear.

Another crisp clang rang out, and the shaft of the Golden Dragon Spear suddenly bent backward.

Just as it was about to crash into Tang Wulin's chest, the sound of a powerful heartbeat rang out, and immense blood essence fluctuations erupted forth as the Golden Dragon Spear abruptly straightened itself to repel the Sky Crossing Divine Spear. At the same time, Tang Wulin stomped his right foot onto the ground, and a thunderous dragon's roar rang out as a series of golden dragons erupted out of the earth before pouncing toward Guan Yue from all directions.

In response, Guan Yue tapped the bottom of his spear onto the ground in a seemingly gentle manner, and the tremors unleashed by the Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth was instantly dispelled. At the same time, his Sky Crossing Divine Spear transformed into countless spear projections, yet his figure was still clearly visible beyond those spear projections.

"Clang!

"

Right as the eight golden dragons were destroyed, Tang Wulin was forced to block with his Golden Dragon Spear again as the Sky Crossing Divine Spear was thrust out of the spear projections.

On this occasion, the Sky Crossing Divine Spear was imbued with incredible power, forcing the Golden Dragon Spear to crash into Tang Wulin's chest as he gave a muffled groan.

He immediately retreated, and his Golden Dragon Body nullified the majority of the impact, but Guan Yue refused to let up, thrusting his Sky Crossing Divine Spear forward once again.

All of the spear projections vanished, and the spear thrust he unleashed was extremely plain and simple, but in Tang Wulin's mind, he felt as if the tip of the Sky Crossing Divine Spear were expanding infinitely, making it seem unstoppable and unavoidable.

Even from their first clash, Tang Wulin had realized that this was a man who had mastered spear essence.

Was he really only a demigod? Why was it that Tang Wulin was sensing the same level of pressure from him as he did from Infernal King Douluo Harosha?

Tang Wulin didn't have time to think about this as his scales took on a mirror-like appearance. This was his Golden Dragon Tyrant Body!

At the same time, he unleashed his first attack, unleashing countless spear projections with his Golden Dragon Spear before fusing them as one.

His opponent's attack was arriving too quickly, so his Fury of the Masses could only be completed in a small area.

The two spears clashed, and Tang Wulin shot back as if he had been electrocuted. His entire body was sent flying, and all of his scales were flashing erratically.

Guan Yue took a step forward and instantly reached Tang Wulin, but his Sky Crossing Divine Spear seemed to have disappeared.

He raised his right hand before thrusting it forward, and in the next instant, he abruptly vanished while the Sky Crossing Divine Spear reappeared. On this occasion, the spear seemed to have crossed through space and time to instantly reach Tang Wulin's chest, and it was too late for him to defend with his Golden Dragon Spear.

This was true spear essence!

In this dire situation, Tang Wulin put his adaptability on full display, quickly raising his left hand in front of his own chest. A ball of darkness appeared at the center of his palm as if he had conjured up a black hole, and the darkness was devouring the power of the oncoming spear strike in a frenzy.

This was his Dragon Emperor Break!

At this point, his Dragon Emperor Break was a lot more mature than when he had first attained it, which was why he was able to unleash it in such a short time.

The Sky Crossing Divine Spear faltered in mid-air only around an inch away from Tang Wulin's left hand, and Guan Yue reappeared behind the spear with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

In the next instant, the Sky Crossing Divine Spear was thrust forward with renewed force to strike Tang Wulin's palm.

The surrounding air warped and twisted violently as everything within a diameter of over 100 meters exploded amid a thunderous boom.

Tang Wulin was forced to stumble backward, and Guan Yue also drew to an involuntary halt before stabilizing himself by tapping the bottom of his spear onto the ground.

During his retreat, Tang Wulin had already raised his Golden Dragon Spear again, putting his incredible physical constitution on full display.

A series of golden halos emerged from the tip of his spear, and in that instant, his aura completely shifted.

Guan Yue's eyes lit up as if he had identified something, a smile appeared on his face for the very first time as he thrust his Sky Crossing Divine Spear again.

In that instant, the spear underwent another transformation; it was as if it had become the paramount law of heaven and earth, the great dao itself!
