In Douluo, there is a way to die.

Chapter 129 I'm sorry, saying your name out loud won't pass censorship.
Although the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is located in Heaven Dou City, the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, it is built outside of Heaven Dou City. The school district covers a huge area, even including an entire mountain.
As the number one academy in the Heaven Dou Empire, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy has a relatively small number of students, but its facilities are extremely complete. As an advanced soul master academy, it has built nearly a hundred essential places such as "mimicry environments" that can improve the cultivation speed of soul masters. Even the few food-type soul masters can find a mimicry training ground here.
Of course, Yinlan had never experienced the simulated environment of the academy. As I said before, she was just a figurehead at the academy and had never actually attended any classes. The biggest use the academy had for her was to provide her with a spot in a competition.
In terms of cultivation environment, she can go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well or the Great Perilous Land; in terms of theoretical knowledge, she can go to the library under the Spirit Hall, which has the most complete theoretical knowledge in the world.
Apart from that, the only thing about the Heaven Dou Royal Academy that deserves the title of "the number one academy in the Heaven Dou Empire" is its facilities. Regardless of the talent of the students, their quality is extremely uneven. It's not that there are no good students in the school, but rather that the majority of them are arrogant and domineering.
Yinlan really couldn't be bothered with those scoundrels. She'd rather go back to the hot pot restaurant and cultivate with everyone else, competing fiercely for cultivation. However, when she occasionally went to the academy, she would still offer a few words of advice to the morally upright students.
The main reason for this situation is that most of the students who are able to enter the Heaven Dou Royal Academy are descendants of noble families with prominent backgrounds in the Heaven Dou Empire. However, the three members of the academy's teaching committee are all commoners who, with the help of the Spirit Hall, have crossed social classes to improve their status when they were young. Therefore, most students turn a deaf ear to the teaching committee members' teachings and continue to do as they please. It is common for students to go against their teachers.
This also left the three education commissioners, who wanted to improve the school's atmosphere, feeling powerless and only able to try to help some of the outstanding students in the college.
This only confirms Yin Lan's stereotype of most nobles: short-sighted. Just as Yin Lan said in the past, in this world, as long as one can cultivate, the class gap between commoners and nobles is not that big. Commoners with high innate soul power will achieve more in the future, while nobles with low innate soul power will fall into poverty.
The three education commissioners were indeed from commoner backgrounds, and their political status was elevated by the Spirit Hall. They were not traditional nobles of the Heaven Dou Empire. However, apart from these, all three of them were Soul Masters with the cultivation level of Soul Douluo.
How many Soul Masters are there in the entire continent right now? The answer is less than two hundred.
No one knows how far they will go in the future, but in any case, the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy will be a part of these students' "resume". If they encounter any "Waterloo" in the future, the Education Committee will remember those self-reliant students, as well as those noble descendants who are hopeless.
So, which side will this "connection" become? Is there even a question?
However, Yinlan was naturally not subject to these social rules. Although she was a student of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, she was only a "student" in name only. Her role was actually that of a "teacher." Even the three education committee members had to consult her when they encountered problems in their cultivation. If it weren't for the competition and watching monkey shows, she would have graduated long ago.
...In fact, she had already met the graduation standards of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy when she was six years old. If it weren't for this competition for fun, she probably wouldn't have even been admitted.
Fortunately, those spoiled brats were just spoiled brats, not real fools. They knew that Yin Lan looked down on them, yet they still dared to stupidly run up to Yin Lan and try to annoy her with their underhanded tactics. Not to mention that Yin Lan was the "daughter of a titled Douluo," the fact that she was a "royal guest" behind her was already something that ordinary nobles could not afford to offend, not even the emperor!
Within the academy, the few people everyone knows are not to be trifled with are the members of the Royal Fighting Team, who are currently preparing for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. Among them are the Shi brothers and Yu Feng, young soul masters with outstanding talent and promising futures; and above them are Yin Lan, daughter of the Blue Silver Douluo Yin Luo; Dugu Yan, granddaughter of the Azure Phosphorus Douluo Dugu Bo; Ye Lingling, granddaughter of the Saint Healing Douluo Ye Renxin; Yu Tianheng, grandson of the Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen; and Oslo, grandson of the Spirit Hall Elder Ghost Leopard Douluo.
Nobody would be foolish enough to provoke them.
Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Chenxiang clung to the dragon's head, each holding onto a blue-gold scale to steady themselves and prevent being thrown off. Their faces were full of curiosity as they looked down. Bright yellow, castle-like buildings stood halfway up the mountain, and the stone steps leading up the mountain were all carved from white marble. From above, a sense of grandeur and magnificence immediately arose.
The blue-gold dragon first let out a roar in the sky and circled above the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy for a while. After the teachers had dispersed the students wandering in the academy square, it folded its giant wings and slowly descended amidst the gasps of surprise from below.
Three elderly men dressed in black robes embroidered with gold patterns approached from the side. The one in the lead, thin and with white hair and beard, bowed first and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty Blue Silver."
Perhaps due to his advanced age, his voice sounded somewhat high-pitched, but it wasn't unpleasant; rather, it had a gentle quality.
"Greetings, Your Majesty Blue Silver." The other two people on either side of him followed suit, bowing in greeting.
The three were all wearing custom-made formal attire specially awarded by the Spirit Hall, representing their status as Soul Douluos. This meant that although they were now working at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, they still remembered the kindness of the Spirit Hall in supporting them.
The blue-gold dragon lowered its head, and Yinlan jumped down from the dragon's head first, then picked up Yinluo.
"No need for formalities, gentlemen." Yin Luo replied to the three education committee members, but the way Yin Lan, who was in a playful mood, lifted her up made it impossible for the atmosphere to be serious, causing the three education committee members to look somewhat awkward.
Then, Yinluo sprouted two thick vines, which entangled Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Chenxiang, who were frantically trying to climb down the dragon's head and clinging to its scales, helping them land. At the same time, the blue-gold dragon transformed into soul power and dissipated.
“I’ve brought you two new students,” Yinluo said to the three education commissioners. “They are both good children. I would appreciate it if you could help them with their enrollment procedures and let you meet them.”
Her words were practically a blatant indication that Yinlan intended to mentor the two girls.
Meng Shenji understood the meaning behind Yinluo's words. While keeping a straight face, he replied, "The Royal Fighting Team welcomes both of you young friends."
With just a few words, the two of them had arranged everything clearly for Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Chenxiang.
All three education committee members knew that anyone chosen by Yinlan to be trained would certainly be extraordinary in the future. The last person trained by Yinlan, Dugu Yan, was already a Soul King. Even if these two were just scoundrels, with Yinlan as their "ultimate weapon," the championship of this competition was already in the hands of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Seeing the three education committee members trying so hard to keep their expressions straight, Yinluo finally showed a bit of helplessness. She turned to look at her daughter, her two legs dangling in the air twitching slightly: "Baby, you can put Mommy down now." "...Okay." Seeing that they were really struggling to keep their expressions straight, Yinlan also stopped being playful and put Yinluo down.
"Zhuqing, Xiangxiang, come here, let me introduce you," Yinlan said, then looked at the two girls behind her and pulled the two somewhat reserved girls to the three education committee members. "This is Meng Shenji, the chief of the Tiandou Royal Academy, whose martial soul is Black Demon and who is an 86th-level control-type battle soul douluo."
In the past few years, Yin Lan had sparred with these three education committee members. To her surprise, Meng Shenji's Black Demon Martial Soul was actually a Spirit-type Martial Soul. However, due to the lack of cultivation system in the era of Douluo Continent I, no matter what type of Soul Master in this era, they would only blindly push their Soul Power level without paying attention to other factors. This resulted in Meng Shenji being a Spirit-type Soul Master, but his ability to use his Spirit Power was extremely poor.
Judging from his performance that time, his mental strength was far inferior to Qian Renxue's six years ago. In other words, his mental strength was probably not even comparable to that of a 30,000-year-old soul beast... Yin Lan guessed that this was also due to the fact that his fifth soul ring was a thousand years old, which held him back.
However, after Yinlan taught him about the Sea of Spirit and some advanced applications of spiritual power, he has made some progress over the years.
Then Yinlan looked to the right of Meng Shenji, at the ordinary-looking, tall and neither fat nor thin old man: "This is Zhilin, the third seat of the academy's teaching committee, whose martial soul is the Azure Vine, and who is an 83rd-level control-type weapon spirit douluo."
Upon hearing her introduction, both Meng Shenji and Zhilin couldn't help but look at the short, wide-set old man to Meng Shenji's left, revealing strange expressions.
Why did the second young lady introduce the head seat first, and then the third seat? Why was the middle seat skipped?
The chubby old man couldn't help but show a puzzled expression. He didn't remember when he had offended this young lady. Over the years, Yin Lan had only entered the academy a handful of times. Many times, even they didn't know when she had come. She was like a dragon, appearing and disappearing without a trace. It was difficult for them to even see her once, let alone offend her. He had no idea what he had done to displease Yin Lan.
Zhu Zhuqing and Bai Chenxiang were also somewhat puzzled, but Yinlan continued the introduction, saying, "This is Bai, the second-in-command of the academy's teaching committee, whose martial soul is the Heavenly Star Furnace and who is an 85th-level defensive weapon soul Douluo."
They really do introduce the chief first, then the three seats, and finally the second seat!
Moreover, the introduction didn't even mention his name, just referred to him as "Commissioner Bai"!
Meng Shenji and Zhilin couldn't help but give Bai Jiaowei an inquiring look, as if to say, "You old man, have you been doing something bad behind the brothers' backs?"
"I didn't..." Bai, the Education Commissioner, was sweating profusely and his lips were trembling. He quickly stepped forward and asked, "Um... Second Miss, I wonder if I did something wrong that offended you?"
“No,” Yinlan shook her head, her eyes remaining unchanged and clear, “It’s just that I’ve gotten used to introducing myself this way over the years.”
It's good that everything's alright, it's good that everything's alright... Although Bai Jiaowei didn't know what Yin Lan meant by "I'm used to it," he knew that Yin Lan always spoke the truth. If she said she had no objections to him, then she had no objections.
"My two young friends, my name is Bai Bao..." The tense expression on Bai Jiaowei's face disappeared, and he once again showed his previous kind smile.
Before he could finish his self-introduction, Yin Lan interrupted him: "Commissioner Bai!"
Meng Shenji had no choice but to reach out and pull Bai Jiaowei again, glaring at him. He finally understood that the Second Miss really didn't have any issues with her old brother, but she might have some issues with his name.
Zhilin was also speechless. What kind of situation was this? How could they talk about names instead of people?
Bai Jiaowei realized what was happening and had to swallow his self-introduction. But upon reflection, he realized that Yinlan had indeed always called him "Bai Jiaowei" over the years, without using his full name.
“Actually, I don’t have a problem with your name,” Yinlan saw through their thoughts and sighed helplessly, “It’s just that I’m afraid your name won’t pass censorship if I say it out loud.”
...Who knows why Tang Buddha gave Bai Jiaowei such a name, yet it actually passed the review back then.
"What can't pass the review?" Everyone looked bewildered.
"It's nothing, nothing important." A subtle expression appeared on Yinlan's face.
Bai Chenxiang and Zhu Zhuqing looked at each other, and finally stepped forward to bow to the three of them.
"Junior Bai Chenxiang, Martial Soul: Sharp-tailed Swift, Level 29 Agility-type Battle Soul Master! Greetings, Committee Members Meng Shenji, Zhi Lin, and Bai!"
"Junior Zhu Zhuqing, Martial Soul Netherworld Cat, Level 28 Agility-Attack Battle Soul Master! Greetings to Education Committee Members Meng Shenji, Zhilin, and Bai!"
The three education committee members raised their eyebrows, selectively ignoring the issue of how the other party addressed them. Both new children were agility-type soul masters, but the Royal Fighting Team already had two agility-type soul masters, Yu Feng and Oslo. Was the team being too overabundant with agility-type soul masters?
There are also the "Sharp-tailed Swift" and the "Netherworld Cat," these two martial souls are not...
But Yinlan now seemed determined to put the two of them into the Royal Fighting Team, so the three instructors had no choice but to stop arguing. Anyway, the championship would definitely go to the Second Miss, and the three of them were just happy to ride on the coattails of the championship they had won during their coaching period.
“Young friends, please don’t stand on ceremony. You will be students of our Heavenly Dou Royal Academy from now on. Just make yourself at home here,” Meng Shenji stepped aside and extended his hand in invitation. “Please come in, everyone.”
