Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 8 Poseidon Pavilion Meeting

Jiang Qingtong came to Shrek Academy and happened to meet Beibei who had just returned from Tang Ya's place.

Beibei was surprised and asked, "Miss Jiang, why are you here?"

Jiang Qingtong also noticed Beibei and replied, "I'm here to register at Shrek Academy. Do you know where to register?"

"So Miss Jiang is my junior! The place you reported to should be written on the admission notice. Didn't Miss Jiang see it?" Beibei was a little surprised. When did the academy start to recruit students from the Sun and Moon Empire?
Jiang Qingtong shook her head and said, "I don't have an admission letter."

"No admission letter?"

Beibei was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and understood what Jiang Qingtong meant: "The number of new students admitted by Shrek Academy each year is limited. If Miss Jiang doesn't confirm her admission in advance, it will probably be very difficult..."

"It's okay, just show me the way." Jiang Qingtong waved his hand, telling Beibei not to worry.

Beibei looked at Jiang Qingtong's confident look, suppressed her doubts, and said, "Then Miss Jiang, come with me. I'll take you there."

Beibei brought Jiang Qingtong to the registration office. Since it was the first day for new students to enroll, there were quite a few people there. With Beibei's guidance, Jiang Qingtong avoided the pointless queues and found the teacher in charge.

"You said she didn't have an admission letter?"

After hearing Beibei's story, the admissions teacher frowned and said bluntly, "No! Shrek Academy only admits new students after repeated confirmation. We never accept students who join on a last-minute basis!"

Jiang Qingtong said, "Teacher, I'm from the Sun Moon Empire, so I don't have an admission letter. Can you make some allowance?"

"It doesn't matter which country you come from, Shrek Academy has its own rules!" The admissions teacher shook his head and still refused Jiang Qingtong's admission.

Perhaps his voice was a little too loud, and an unkempt old man pushed the door open. His clothes were stained with grease, and he was eating a chicken drumstick. He asked, "Xiao Qiu, what's going on? I never see you this excited."

"Mr. Xuan!"

When he saw the person coming in, Teacher Qiu's pupils shrank, and he quickly stepped forward to greet him. Beibei also immediately bowed to Master Xuan and said, "Greetings, Master Xuan!"

Xuan Zi waved his hand and told the two of them not to be so polite.

Teacher Qiu pointed at Jiang Qingtong and said, "This girl isn't a freshman this year, but she's going to enroll. You know, Shrek Academy isn't a place where you can just come and go, so I got a little excited just now!"

Hearing this, Xuan Zi looked at Jiang Qingtong. When his eyes fell on Jiang Qingtong, his brows frowned and a sharp look flashed in his eyes. Jiang Qingtong felt a pressure from him.

As a Level 98 Super Douluo, Xuanzi's strength was second only to Moon in the entire Shrek Academy. Jiang Qingtong understood that Xuanzi had noticed the seven Level 9 Soul Guidance Devices she was carrying.

"Not ordinary! Little girl, where are you from?" Xuanzi asked after a long time.

Jiang Qingtong replied: "The Sun and Moon Empire."

Xuan Zi was not surprised to hear this. A ninth-level soul guide device was something that none of the three kingdoms in Douluo Continent, including their Shrek Academy, could produce. Only the Sun-Moon Empire could afford such a device.

But even in the Sun-Moon Empire, it is impossible for just anyone to produce a ninth-level soul guide!

The young girl in front of him probably had a high status in the Sun Moon Empire. After thinking for a moment, Xuan Zi said to Jiang Qingtong, "Little girl, follow me."

"Master Xuan, this..." Teacher Qiu looked surprised when he heard this.

Xuan Zi shook the chicken drumstick in his hand and said, "It's okay, Xiao Qiu, just go ahead and do your thing."

"Yes, respectfully send off Master Xuan!" Teacher Qiu and Beibei bowed to Xuan Zi and saw him off. Jiang Qingtong followed Xuan Zi all the way from the registration office to the inner courtyard. After crossing the inner courtyard, they arrived at the edge of Poseidon Lake. Xuan Zi asked, "Can you fly?"

Jiang Qingtong shook his head honestly.

Xuan Zi waved his hand, and the majestic soul power immediately lifted Jiang Qingtong's body, carrying her across the Sea God Lake and flying towards the Sea God Island in the center of the lake. This was not Jiang Qingtong's first time flying. When she was in Mingde Hall, Kong Deming took her flying more than once.

But compared to Kong Deming, Xuanzi's soul power gives people a feeling of being more majestic and vast, with profound foundation.

On Seagod Island grows a giant tree called the Golden Tree. Shrek Academy's highest institution, Seagod Pavilion, was built against the Golden Tree. Thousands of years ago, Shrek Academy was founded to lead the three kingdoms of the former Douluo Continent in their struggle against the Sun-Moon Empire.

After landing, Xuan Zi said to Jiang Qingtong with emotion, "This is the first time someone from the Sun Moon Empire has visited the Sea God Pavilion in all these years. Little girl, you should know about the Sea God Pavilion, right?"

Jiang Qingtong nodded, looking calm.

She wasn't surprised by Xuanzi's decision to bring her to the Sea God Pavilion. After all, she was carrying a ninth-level soul guide, which was not only priceless but also a huge threat.

In the Poseidon Pavilion, several elders had received Xuanzi's notification in advance. Except for a few who had matters to attend to and could not leave, all of them were present.

An impromptu informal Poseidon Pavilion meeting was held.

Xuanzi walked to the conference table and sat down, telling Jiang Qingtong not to be shy: "Don't be afraid, little girl. We old guys just brought you here to ask you a few questions."

Jiang Qingtong looked calm and bowed, "Seniors, please ask."

Xian Lin'er, the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, was the first to speak. She stared at Jiang Qingtong and asked, "Where did you get this ninth-level soul guide device?"

"The elders in my family were afraid that I would suffer any harm, so they gave it to me for self-defense." Jiang Qingtong answered seriously.

Hearing her answer, several elders looked a little surprised.

Self-defense?

Just for self-defense, why do you bring so many sets of ninth-level soul guides?

They don't have a single ninth-level soul guide at Shrek Academy, and you're telling them that your seven ninth-level soul guides are just for self-defense? No matter how wealthy the Sun-Moon Empire is, ninth-level soul guides aren't cheap, are they?

"Who is your elder?" Xian Lin'er couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Qingtong blinked and said truthfully, "Master Mingde, Jing Hongchen. And all the senior worshippers of Mingde Hall, they are all my elders."

Seeing Jiang Qingtong reveal her origins in this way, the elders were somewhat surprised. Shrek Academy had collected a lot of intelligence about the Sun-Moon Empire and knew where Mingde Hall was and who Jing Hongchen was.

With so many ninth-level soul guides protecting him, Jiang Qingtong's status in Mingde Hall is definitely not low.

Elder Song stared at Jiang Qingtong with sharp eyes and asked, "If that's the case, why did you come to Shrek Academy? Undercover?"

"No."

Jiang Qingtong shook her head. She stood straight, not afraid of Old Song's gaze at all, and said in a deep voice, "Because Shrek Academy is now the holy land for martial spirit cultivation in Douluo Continent! I am not suitable for soul mentor training, so it is better for me to come to Shrek than Mingde Hall."
