King of Titans and Dragons

Chapter 757 - 757 746 Metallic Dragon Skips Class

Chapter 757: Chapter 746: Metallic Dragon Skips Class Chapter 757: Chapter 746: Metallic Dragon Skips Class As Muria expected, when the news of Terence’s legendary breakthrough due to his bestowed blood spread, the entire Xena Pus’s operating efficiency had significantly improved, especially the enthusiasm of the giants at work. It was far beyond what it used to be. Even when the giant legion was attacking the Evil Dragon Peninsula, their speed was completely different, as if they had been injected with dragon blood.

The speed at which these giant legions advanced increased day by day, somehow forcing an Ancient Black Dragon from the depths of the earth. But as soon as this black dragon came out and roared towards the sky, pretending to be intimidating, it was immediately subdued by the combined efforts of three legends, called for support by the Storm Giant from Xena Pus.

Then, to the disappointment of some in Xena Pus, under the circumstances where Xena Pus’s energy department had even prepared the Crystal Pillars for sealing, the Ancient Black Dragon promptly surrendered and went so far as to support the forefront of the giant legion.

On the other hand, under the guidance of this Ancient Black Dragon, the giant legion found several sleeping places of ancient dragons. Then, the legends of Xena Pus captured them and either temporarily sealed the ones who surrendered, sent them for ideological education, or sealed the ones who did not surrender in the Crystal Pillars.

In short, after another black dragon came to beg for mercy in Xena Pus, the giant legion’s attack on the Evil Dragon Peninsula was nearing its end, and the pacification of the peninsula was just around the corner.

Just as the dragons of Xena Pus were about to conquer the peninsula, the long-awaited Ancient Silver Dragon finally arrived on Xena Pus with three ancient dragons from the Gem Dragon Clan. Then, under Muria’s guidance, they were given a detailed introduction to the Dragon Clan Academy’s facilities and rules.

Influenced by Muria and seeing many descendants of the Five-Color Dragon Clan and Metallic Dragon Clan enrolled, the three Gem Ancient Dragons also agreed to send their offspring to the Dragon Clan Academy for learning.

Just after these ancient Gem Dragons had left, Bernard, who had been dispatched by Muria to search for the Gem Dragon Clan, had also located traces of a faction of the Gem Dragon Clan.

“You did an excellent job.” Looking at the more than ten Sapphire Dragons standing under the podium, Muria turned to Bernard on the side. He really didn’t expect such returns. Although a dozen dragons were not enough for him, they were an indispensable boost to the ambitious nation-builder.

After praising him, Muria included some of the underage dragons from these more than ten Gem Dragons in the first batch of Dragon Clan Academy’s enrollment list. Some adult dragons and an old dragon were assigned as tutors. In return, Muria agreed to protect these Sapphire Dragons from harm.

As for the noble titles Muria promised, Bernard did not dare to ask if Muria didn’t mention it.

…

Muria stood on the high platform, looking down below. Golden, silver, green bronze dragons from the Metallic Dragon Clan… Sapphire, amethyst, crystal dragons from the Gem Dragon Clan… Red, blue, green dragons from the Five-Color Dragon Clan… Not to mention some rare dragon clans, such as the purple and steel dragons. Every kind of dragon that Muria could find was among them.

All the dragons were neatly organized according to their size and types, and together they looked up at him. From hatchlings just coming out of their shells to juvenile dragons who could already spread their wings and fly, all were present. Adolescent dragons, adult dragons, and old dragons stood in the stands, not as students, but as instructors, assisting the ancient dragons and guiding the young dragons in their learning.

“Everyone…” Standing on the high platform, Muria delivered a speech with a high voice. As the first headmaster of the Dragon Clan Academy, it was his responsibility. Even though there were numerous ancient dragons, he insisted on holding the position.

He had invested in this academy. If any dragon dared to challenge him on the grounds of its seniority and age, wouldn’t it make a mockery of his efforts?

Muria made a speech. He adhered to the school rules and learning curriculum for the dragon students, and then there was the most crucial part of this enrollment ceremony.

Combat demonstration!

Among the students enrolled in the Dragon Clan Academy that Muria initiated, there were Metallic Dragons and Gem Dragons. However, their enrollment was similar to a transaction for Muria. They pay tuition, learn knowledge, and when they graduate, they don’t owe Muria anything.

And the first step lies in paying the tuition fees. Muria must show these dragon parents and ancient dragons what achievements their children and descendants will achieve after receiving comprehensive dragon education. Only then will these dragon parents and ancient dragons willingly pay tuition fees.

And that’s what the combat demonstrations were for. Muria wanted to show all the ancient dragons and dragon parents the fruit of dragon education. The process was simple; the Five-Color Dragons he had educated would challenge the adult dragons.

In the first combat demonstration, the strongest and most ferocious Red Dragon, Auston, who was born the earliest under Muria’s command, appeared. Following Muria’s secret instructions, he disregarded the prior arrangements, directly nominated an adult Golden Dragon, who had come to watch the ceremony, for a challenge. The mature Golden Dragon didn’t want to participate, but under the gaze of the ancient dragon ancestor behind him, he had to unwillingly enter the combat stage.

Then, a sight that most Giant Dragons would rarely see in their lifetime appeared: the Red Dragon, always known for its brute strength, was engaging in a magic duel with a Golden Dragon. Shockingly, it was not losing. Rather, it appeared to be suppressing the Golden Dragon, an astonishing oddity indeed.

This sight made many Giant Dragons tremble in fear. The truth was clenched by the longer-living Ancient Dragons as they thought of the repercussions. These Ancient Dragons grew more determined to change their views and not hesitate to send their offspring to study at the academy.

If educational methods could elevate even the vast numbers of the Five-Color Dragons to this extent, what about the fewer Metallic Dragons and the Gem Dragons?! If they did not make changes, wouldn’t they genuinely fall behind the Five-Color Dragon Clan? In the future, wouldn’t the Five-Color Dragon Clan hold the overall power within the Dragon Race?

How could such a situation be allowed to happen? The Metallic Dragon Clan was seen as a counterbalance to the Five-Color Dragon Clan, relying on their unity and their individual strength surpassing the Five-Color Dragons. But with the influence of Muria’s education, the power balance was disrupted, and thus the Metallic Dragons had to become stronger.

As Ancient Dragons contemplated, the battle between Red Dragon Auston and the mature Golden Dragon came to an end in a draw. But even a fool could see that Muria had discreetly signaled the Red Dragon. This tough fight was ultimately dominated by the yet-to-mature Red Dragon. If given more time, the Red Dragon may have even won.

The outcome shocked the many Giant Dragons spectating, a young Red Dragon with comprehensive education could counter a mature Golden Dragon – it was an inconceivable result.

However, such incidents were not unprecedented in the long history of the Dragon Race. There had been times when unique, Different Species Dragon emerged. Among them, those who could fight beyond their level were not rare. Perhaps this Red Dragon was just such a variant?

To shatter the illusions of the other Giant Dragons, Muria sent out a Black Dragon with a ridiculously massive physique. His opponent was merely a mature Red Dragon captured from the Evil Dragon Peninsula.

This ensuing battle seemed savage to Metallic Dragons and Gem Dragons, as they fought not with magic, but with primitive, direct physical combat. The result of the battle left the dragons startled.

The gigantically built Black Dragon spewed five different kinds of Dragon Breath, fearlessly fighting the savage Red Dragon without being at a disadvantage.

Since this fight had no need for Muria to maintain the Red Dragon’s dignity, it ended in the Black Dragon’s bitter victory.

Subsequently, Muria sent out ten different Five-Color Dragons to fight one after another. Their opponents were all adult dragons, but even the worst fight ended in a tie.

This was undoubtedly a blatant show of force, the best advertisement, and sure enough, when the fight concluded, most of the Metallic Ancient Dragons and the few Gem Ancient Dragons present were willing to send their descendants to study.

After all, if the notably savage Five-Color Dragons could gain such astonishing combat power after education, why not the Metallic Dragons and the Gem Dragons? What a joke!

…

“Your Highness, the Dragon Clan Academy has been finally established. How do you feel?” An Ancient Golden Dragon asked Muria, who was watching the dragon students being led away by the mature dragons that had volunteered to stay as teachers.

“I don’t feel anything special. The establishment of the academy is just the first step. How to educate the students well and bring up more excellent dragons is far more important. We have no previous examples to follow and can only learn through trial and error. Participating in this task of teaching the young dragons, I hope you all will do your best and not slack off.”

“Of course,” responded all the Ancient Dragons recruited by Muria as professors with serious expressions.

…

The Dragon Clan Academy officially started classes. But just on the third day, a problem occurred—one of the Metallic Dragons skipped class. This left the Metallic Ancient Dragon, who was the teacher of the class, feeling rather embarrassed. However, the reality remained.

After this happened, Muria didn’t say anything. He just silently sent some Five-Color Dragon tutors to take attendance in each dragon student’s class, and then handed the list of the Five-Color Dragons with perfect attendance to the Metallic Ancient Dragons.

This result, which nearly shamed all the Metallic Dragons in Xena Pus, was too much for the Ancient Dragon teachers to bear – they finally exploded…
