Douluo: Becoming a God by Relying on my Enemies

When the dean learned that Yun Feng had come to request early graduation, he approved it almost absentmindedly, viewing it as an investment for the academy's future.

After all, if even one successful graduate remembered their roots and offered support, it could greatly benefit the academy's development.

As the dean processed Yun Feng's paperwork, his expression grew more complex. Yet, most of his feelings were of joy and pride.

"Xiaofeng, you've always been the most diligent student in the academy. We teachers have all seen it."

"But we never expected you to achieve such remarkable results!"

"The academy will undoubtedly take pride in having had a student like you."

Yun Feng smiled and nodded earnestly.

"Dean, thank you and the academy for your support all these years. I'll continue working hard to grow stronger and repay the academy someday!"

Empty promises cost nothing, and Yun Feng was happy to make them. After all, who could predict the future?

As expected, the dean's smile grew even brighter at Yun Feng's words. This young man was not only talented but also had an impressively high emotional intelligence.

In response, the dean reached into his pocket and pulled out a black cloth bag, handing it to Yun Feng with a smile.

"Xiaofeng, your words are more than enough. Take this money. It's not much, but I know your family's situation. You'll need funds as you continue your journey as a soul master."

Seeing Yun Feng about to refuse, the dean quickly added, "Don't think it's too little, and don't reject it. Consider it a small investment from me."

Feeling slightly overwhelmed, Yun Feng accepted the bag with sincere gratitude.

"Thank you, Dean!"

After exchanging a few more words, Yun Feng packed up his belongings and the documents provided by the dean, then left Nuoding Primary Soul Master Academy, heading straight for Holy Soul Village.

Along the way, Yun Feng opened the bag and found ten gold soul coins inside. Smiling, he stored them together with the rewards he had previously received from the Spirit Hall, then continued his journey.

No one would ever complain about having too much money.

Not long after Yun Feng's departure, the dean, filled with excitement, convened a meeting for the academy.

A prodigy like Yun Feng was a powerful promotional tool for next year's enrollment season!

Yu Xiaogang, bored as usual, also attended the meeting. Upon hearing about Yun Feng's current soul power, his joy was uncontrollable.

He had always believed in his understanding of martial souls, predicting Yun Feng's soul power to peak at level 29 or 30. Yet, Yun Feng had reached an incredible level 38, completely shattering his expectations.

If he had known earlier, he would have delved deeper into Yun Feng's progress and perhaps even written a groundbreaking article about it. After all, "raising" such a formidable soul master would solidify his title as the Grandmaster.

Unfortunately, Yun Feng had already left.

Yun Feng's departure was only a day apart from that of Tang San and Xiao Wu.

It had been half a year since Yun Feng last returned to Holy Soul Village. Upon seeing the familiar surroundings, he couldn't help but smile.

Over the years, Yun Feng had been extremely cautious, fearing that Tang Hao might discover his plans or suspect his knowledge of Xiao Wu's true identity.

To avoid suspicion, Yun Feng rarely released his martial soul or practiced openly at the academy.

Of the two soul rings he had acquired during the past six years, one came from a 1,500-year-old Yin Devouring Blood Snake in the Hunting Forest. It granted him the soul skill Polar Dragon Eyes, a status-boosting ability rather than an offensive one.

Yun Feng didn't lack offensive techniques, as Furious Thunder Fist alone could suffice up to the Soul Sage level. Additionally, he had numerous other forbidden techniques and secret arts in his mental arsenal.

Polar Dragon Eyes, his second soul skill, provided a 250% boost to all attributes, added a corrosive effect to his attacks, and transformed his eyes into dragon-like orbs that granted resistance to abnormal effects.

Though its effects appeared simple, they outclassed the fifth or sixth soul skills of many martial souls. Immunity to abnormal effects meant Xiao Wu's charm, Hu Liena's illusions, and Shi Nian's dreams would all be ineffective against Yun Feng. This made him a truly terrifying adversary.

For his third soul skill, Yun Feng didn't rely on the artificially managed Hunting Forest. Instead, he ventured to the Star Dou Forest, where he hunted a 3,200-year-old Gale Wyvern. From it, he gained the skill Gale Dragon Wings.

This ability provided a 300% boost to all attributes, imbued his attacks with gale-force effects, and granted him wings that doubled his speed and allowed him to fly.

The functionality of this third skill surpassed the previous two in certain situations. Doubling his speed, enhancing his attributes, and granting the power of flight—all these were game-changers.

In the Douluo Continent, aside from specific martial souls, soul masters could only achieve flight upon reaching the Title Douluo level. The number of soul masters capable of flying could be counted on one hand.

Yun Feng, however, had achieved flight as a Soul Elder, vastly increasing his tactical versatility.

When Yun Feng arrived at Holy Soul Village, some villagers recognized him and greeted him warmly. Yun Feng responded with a friendly smile.

However, there was a noticeable distance between them. After exchanging pleasantries, the villagers quickly excused themselves.

Yun Feng didn't take this personally. On the Douluo Continent, the social gap between soul masters and commoners was vast, ingrained over generations.

This wasn't something to lament. He had no illusions about equality in this world. If he were still a commoner, he might have welcomed the emergence of a saint to overthrow the corrupt system.

But now, as a beneficiary of this hierarchy and potentially a future ruler, would Yun Feng want such a system dismantled?

Of course not.

That said, Yun Feng wasn't without empathy. For those who had helped him, he w

ould repay their kindness when the time came. He wasn't someone who forgot his debts.
