Douluo: My Spirit Pidgeot

Chapter 90 Revisiting the Heaven Dou Royal Academy
Feeling hungry, Mo Hui went to a hotel in Tiandou City, ordered some decent-looking dishes, and began to eat.

Mo Hui is no longer as poor as he used to be. The gold soul coins he has now are enough for him to live on for a lifetime, as long as he doesn't use them to buy any treasures.

After eating and drinking his fill, Mo Hui returned to his previous residence, only to find that the people from Shenfeng Academy were not there.

After some questioning, Mo Hui finally understood that Dean Feng Qingcang had reached an agreement with the Tian Dou Royal Academy to temporarily borrow the academy's simulated training ground so as not to delay the students' cultivation. Currently, everyone from Shenfeng Academy was cultivating there.

Upon learning this news, Mo Hui immediately went to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

This is Mo Hui's second visit to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and his state of mind is quite different from before.

When he first came to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he was only in his twenties and his main purpose was to study. But this time, he was already a Soul King, far beyond the level of a student, and could see the Heaven Dou Royal Academy from a higher perspective.

Although the level of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy greatly disappointed him, it is undeniable that the training facilities of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy are indeed very strong. If it weren't for the fact that the Divine Wind Academy has a special Hurricane Canyon, its artificial simulated training ground would not be stronger than that of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

"Are you Mo Hui?"

Not long after Mo Hui entered the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, a beautiful figure noticed him and ran towards him with some surprise.

Mo Hui looked at the figure walking quickly toward him with small, quick steps, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and said, "Miss Ning, what are you doing here?"

No wonder I didn't see Ning Rongrong in Shrek Academy's team before; it turns out she joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Given Ning Rongrong's talent and status, she would definitely be able to join the first team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy after joining the academy. This explains why Ning Rongrong was not seen in the previous All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.

To save face for the Heaven Dou Empire, the Heaven Dou First Team has a guaranteed spot, allowing them to skip the preliminary rounds and qualifying rounds and directly participate in the final.

“The Heavenly Dou Royal Academy is sponsored by my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so why can’t I be here?” Ning Rongrong retorted.

Mo Hui said, "When I heard you suddenly ask about Shrek Academy, I thought you were going to Shrek Academy. I didn't expect you to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

Given Ning Rongrong's family background and status, it didn't really matter whether she joined the academy or not. No matter what, the outside world couldn't possibly be better than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. In the original novel, Ning Fengzhi let Ning Rongrong go to Shrek Academy mainly to temper her character.

If Ning Rongrong stays in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, due to her status and the doting of the two Douluo, Sword and Bone, no one else in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will dare to say anything. In the long run, this is not a good thing for Ning Rongrong.

In fact, many forces adopt this approach, sending their family heirs out to gain experience and make their way in the world. Only in this way can they truly understand the world; otherwise, it's easy to make a ridiculous statement like "Why don't they eat meat porridge?"

"You make me angry just by mentioning that!"

Upon hearing Mo Hui's words, Ning Rongrong immediately said angrily, "Shrek is really as you say, a weird and irregular academy. I stayed there for a few days, and there was nothing there. They didn't teach me anything, and they kept belittling me. It really made me furious."

In the original story, Ning Rongrong, yearning for true friendship, might have been brainwashed by Flander's words and fallen into self-doubt. However, due to Mo Hui's existence, Ning Rongrong had already redefined her understanding of true genius and knew the price she would have to pay to reach that level. While Ning Rongrong could certainly become stronger through her own efforts, so what?

Due to the limitations of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it is basically determined that she can only reach level 79 at most in her lifetime. With her talent and background, reaching level 79 is inevitable; it's just a matter of whether it happens faster or slower.

If that's the case, why bother with so much training? Wouldn't it be better to relax and make yourself more comfortable?
This idea only subsided after Ning Rongrong learned that her father, Ning Fengzhi, had evolved his martial soul into the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Mo Hui listened to Ning Rongrong's complaints without replying, but just looked at Ning Rongrong and smiled without saying a word.

Regarding Ning Rongrong's complaints, Mo Hui can only say that it's fortunate you didn't go to Shrek Academy in Douluo Continent II, otherwise you wouldn't just be belittled, but would be facing the question of whether you could even survive.

After all, the title of the Supreme Elder of the Xuanzi Holy Spirit Sect is not given for nothing. It is quite absurd that a dignified level 98 Super Douluo could lead so many accidents, with students either crippled or dead.

After giving Shrek a thorough dressing-down, Ning Rongrong said to Mo Hui, "You must be here to see Dean Feng and the others, right? Come on! I'll take you to them."

Before Mo Hui could reply, he started leading the way on his own.

Seeing this, Mo Hui smiled wryly and slowly followed behind Ning Rongrong.

On the way to the area where the Shenfeng Academy group was located, Ning Rongrong asked Mo Hui with some curiosity, "I heard from Father that you not only broke through to the Soul King level, but also instantly defeated Thunder Academy. Is that true?"

"Just lucky," Mo Hui replied.

This wasn't Mo Hui being modest; rather, he was saving face for Thunder Academy. He couldn't very well say that Thunder Academy was nothing but a bunch of worthless idiots to him, could he? That wouldn't be appropriate.

"Wow! You are so awesome!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong looked at Mo Hui with some admiration. Just a few days ago, Ning Rongrong and the members of the Tiandou team had fought against Thunder Academy, and they had suffered a crushing defeat.

Although Ning Rongrong found Mo Hui's focus on cultivation rather boring, she couldn't help but feel a stirring of romantic feelings after hearing about his deeds—a young girl's most basic yearning for a hero.

Soon, led by Ning Rongrong, Mo Hui arrived at the area where the Shenfeng Academy students were.

However, to Mo Hui's surprise, this area was not only inhabited by students from Shenfeng Academy; students from Tianshui Academy, Leiting Academy, and Chihuo Academy were also present.

Seeing that Mo Hui seemed somewhat surprised, Ning Rongrong explained to him, "Although there is still quite a while before the qualifying rounds, it would be troublesome to organize the competition again if the advancing academies went back. Therefore, apart from that peculiar Shrek Academy, all the other advancing academies have come to Tian Dou Royal Academy to borrow the venue."
