Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The princes, princesses, officials, and nobles looked at the academy presidents and teachers-in-charge all at once. They were also extremely curious as to who exactly that genius who could fight Prince Barbarossa head-on was?
“I don’t know who he is!”
“He’s not from our academy!”
“Does anyone among all of you know who he is?”
All the academy presidents and teachers-in-charge shook their heads. Only Angus, the president of Black Dragon Academy, couldn’t help but look at Fred, a hint of strong jealousy flashing across his eyes.
Fred stepped forward and replied with a wry laugh, “Your Majesty, he’s Meng Lei from our Fire Dragon Magic Academy!”

“The Fire Dragon Magic Academy?”
“That boy is from the Fire Dragon Kingdom?”action
“There’s a genius like that in the Fire Dragon Kingdom?”
“Meng Lei?”
Frederick the 32nd laughed and asked, “President Fred, tell me, how old is Meng Lei this year? Has he challenged the Dragon God Tower yet? What’s impressive about him?”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
President Fred cleared his throat. Then, his gaze swept across the whole venue, and he replied, “Your Majesty, Meng Lei has just reached 16 years of age this year. He’s a first-year student of the Fire Dragon Magic Academy. With his outstanding magic talent, he can be said to be the number one genius of the Fire Dragon Magic Academy within the last 10,000 years!
“Before the exchange competition, Meng Lei had never been to the Imperial City, so he hadn’t challenged the Dragon God Tower before. He did, however, visit the tower yesterday. His ranking as of this morning was 227th place at Level 40!”

Whoaaa!
A furor went through the crowd!
Everyone was astounded by Meng Lei’s achievements.
16 years old!
227th place!
Level 40!
On top of it all, he’d taken just a day to do all that.
Just how amazingly talented must he be?
Just how terrifyingly strong must he be?

“For one to pass through the Dragon God Tower’s 30th level, they must at least possess the strength of a Saint Domain. To pass through the 40th level, one must be at least mid-level Saint Domain!”
Frederick the 32nd found this rather unbelievable. “For a teenager that has just turned 16 years old to possess such strength, he is truly astonishingly talented and possesses an amazing gift!”
Everyone nodded quietly in response. Even though there were those who were indignant among them, they couldn’t rebut the statement. For a 16-year-old to be a mid-level Saint Domain, it was truly hard to imagine just how he had cultivated to such an extent.
“President Luke, in your opinion, how does Meng Lei compare to Sachhen, Adil, Mond Aston, and the others from the Dragon God Academy?”
“This…”
President Luke glanced at President Fred, his brows drawing together into a slight frown. Then, he replied, “In terms of talent alone, Sachhen, Adil, and the others certainly cannot compare to Meng Lei! But…”
President Luke changed the course of the conversation at this point and said resolutely and decisively, “When it comes to their strength, Sachhen, Adil, and the others are definitely stronger than him. 16 years of age is ultimately still too young!”
Frederick the 32nd gave a small smile at his words, refraining from making any judgment. Instead, he looked at President Fred and asked, “President Fred, what do you think?”
“This… It’s hard to say when they haven’t competed against one another.” President Fred shook his head slightly, and then he added, “However, Meng Lei’s talent in magic talent is one-in-a-million. He also has a fairly deep comprehension of laws of nature, so he is likely able to put up a fight against them.”
“For him to possess such strength at 16 years old, that child’s talent is truly hard to come by even in 10,000 years! As expected of the Fire Dragon Kingdom! Rich lands indeed foster many outstanding talents!”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
President Fred was rather proud of that!
“However…”
As Frederick the 32nd watched the magic screen intently, the course of the conversation took a sudden turn, and he asked, “Since Meng Lei has such outstanding magic talent, why is his body also so strong? Isn’t he a pure-blooded human?”
Everyone nodded at his words.
Humans were frail and weak, and so were human Magicians’ bodies.
Even an Eighth-Grade Warrior’s body was stronger than a human Saint Domain Great Magician’s, let alone a Golden Colossal Dragon like Barbarossa! And fighting him head-on at that!
Yet Meng Lei had the guts to fight Prince Barbarossa head-on. Why was his body so strong and sturdy?

“Your Majesty, there’s more to it than meets the eye!”
President Fred had seen this coming, so he explained with a smile, “Meng Lei isn’t purely human. Rather, he’s a Fire Dragon Person!”
“A Fire Dragon Person?”
Upon hearing his response, realization dawned upon everyone.
“No wonder his body is so strong! So he’s a Fire Dragon Person!”
“A Golden Colossal Dragon’s body is definitely stronger than a Fire Dragon’s”;
“A pure-blooded Colossal Dragon’s body is definitely stronger than a Dragon Person’s”;
These propositions were wrong, of course.
However, there was a condition to that—they must be of the same grade.
At the same grade, a Golden Colossal Dragon’s body was stronger than a Fire Dragon’s for sure, and a pure-blooded Colossal Dragon’s body was also definitely stronger than a Dragon Person’s. There was no doubt about these two points!
However, if the Fire Dragons’ or Dragon People’s bloodline developments were deeper, then there was a chance that their bodies might be stronger than the Golden Colossal Dragons’ and pure-blooded Colossal Dragons’.
Frederick the 32nd understood this line of reasoning, of course. Nevertheless, it still puzzled him. “Meng Lei is only 16 years old. The amount of time he has spent on cultivation is extremely limited. Apart from having to cultivate magic, does he really have the time to develop his Fire Dragon bloodline and build his body to such an extent?”

“An extremely deep level of comprehension of laws of nature, as well as body durability that matches up to Prince Barbarossa’s… If he were a slightly older pure-blooded Fire Dragon, perhaps that might be possible, but at 16 years old…”
Terribly perplexed, everyone began to whisper among themselves.
Meng Lei’s talent was no longer something that could be merely described as “monstrous”. It was so crazy that people couldn’t accept it at all.
It was as if a 10-year-old had received the Nobel Prize in Physics as well as the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
Was that even possible?
“This…”
At once, President Fred started to hem and haw.
“Might you be hiding something, President Fred?” A look of puzzlement came over Frederick the 32nd’s countenance.
“I have something to say, Your Majesty!”
Angus, the Black Dragon Academy president, stepped forward at this point.
Frederick the 32nd said with a look of puzzlement, “Feel free to speak your mind, President Angus!”
Angus declared loudly, “Your Majesty, when Meng Lei was challenging the Dragon God Tower yesterday, I saw with my own two eyes that the Dragon God Genius Ranking had clearly indicated that Meng Lei was human and not a Fire Dragon Person!”
“A human?”
“Isn’t Meng Lei a Fire Dragon Person?”
“Can a pure-blooded human actually have such a strong body?”
“Humans are born with frail and weak bodies; how can his body possibly be that strong…”
Everyone began to speculate at once!
Frederick the 32nd looked at President Fred and asked, “What are your views with regard to President Angus’ words, President Fred?”
“Your Majesty, while I dare not have any views about that, I do have a question that I’d like to ask President Angus!”
President Fred looked at Angus with a slight smile and asked, “Must the challenger definitely be human just because the Dragon God Genius Ranking indicates him as such?”
“Of course not! A double bloodline-holder is also indicated as human!”
Angus snorted lightly and said mockingly, “President Fred, surely you can’t be saying that Meng Lei also carries two types of bloodlines like you, the Fire Dragon Titan famous throughout the whole continent?”
“Why not?” President Fred countered.
“Haha! President Fred sure knows how to crack a joke!”
Angus burst into uproarious laughter and scoffed. “Just how rare are double bloodline-holders? Otherwise, how would President Fred’s name resound throughout the whole continent?”
“Just because it’s rare doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist!”
