Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 82 Meeting an acquaintance again
The Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy is particularly lively today. People are coming and going outside the school gate, and many nobles can be seen from time to time.

The children's voices continued to ring out as they crowded into the academy, which seemed a bit noisy, but no one said anything about the scene.

After all, this is the day when the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy recruits new students. It is indeed a happy thing for these students to be able to come here.

"Nana, this is it."

Outside the school gate, an unassuming father and daughter walked up to the gate. The little girl looked up at the tall gate, unable to hide her excitement.

"Dad, I'll go in by myself next."

"Okay." The man smiled and touched his daughter's head, a trace of loneliness flashing in his eyes, "Nana, I know you still remember your mother..."

The man spoke softly, and Nana's somewhat joyful expression quickly disappeared, "Dad, I..."

"You are my daughter, how could I not understand your thoughts? You have been immersed in soul guides for the past two years and have never had a good rest. I am afraid it is not just for the sake of entering the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, right?"

Nana raised her head, her expression serious. "Dad, have you forgotten Mom?"

The man paused slightly, his raised hand trembling slightly, "How could that be? Dad will never forget it."

"Then I can't let it go."

"But Nana, the world of soul masters is more complicated than you imagine. Although Dad is not a soul master, he has seen soul masters. Your mother's cultivation is not too weak among soul masters, but until she disappeared, she never mentioned soul masters to us."

The man's voice trembled. "She didn't tell us what she was doing, or for whom, because those people were far beyond our ability to deal with."

"I know." Nana nodded heavily. "That's why I'm trying my best to come here. This is the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Guidance Academy, the best academy in the entire Sun Moon Empire. Not only can you improve your cultivation, but all graduates will be recruited by the nobles and have connections within the academy."

"I know Mom is protecting us. I can't do much with my current strength, but just because I can't do it now doesn't mean I can't do it in the future. Even if I can't deal with those people, at least I want to know where Mom is now and whether she's still alive."

The man looked at his daughter in front of him and did not speak for a long time.

Two years ago, his wife suddenly left home, leaving them alone. Nana had secretly followed him out when he wasn't paying attention. He didn't know what Nana had seen, but he knew that from that day on, his wife never returned, and Nana seemed to have changed forever.

Although he never asked his wife what she was doing, he could guess from the occasional smell of blood coming from her that what she was doing was very dangerous. However, he didn't know how to persuade her. After all, he had no cultivation at all, and although he had a noble title, he had no real power.

"Dad, I've grown up now and have the opportunity to enter the best soul master academy in the Sun Moon Empire. I must find out where Mom went and who took her away."

The man was speechless for a moment. Knowing his daughter well, he realized the determination behind her words. After a long silence, he finally spoke slowly.

"Okay, Dad supports you. However, no matter what you decide to do, strength is the most important thing. After entering the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, you must study hard. Even if you can't find the truth, you must gain the strength to protect yourself."

The man's eyes were filled with complex emotions. How could he let go of his wife's affairs? But he was also extremely reluctant to leave such a dangerous task to his daughter.

"Yeah." Nana nodded and turned to walk into the academy.

"Nana." She hadn't walked far when her father called her back again. "Take care of yourself."

"Ah."

Inside the college, on the square, Lin Jiayi looked at the freshmen who kept entering the college, his face full of smiles. His already plump facial features were squeezed together, and his eyes were almost invisible.

As the Dean of Studies at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, I naturally feel happy to see so many new students entering the academy.

"teacher."

A call made Lin Jiayi turn around, and when he saw the person in front of him, his expression was slightly surprised.

"Lin Xiao, when did you come back?"

"I came back last night, but it was too late, so I didn't bother the teacher anymore."

Lin Jiayi looked Lin Xiao up and down, then nodded slightly. "It seems you have successfully obtained the sixth spirit ring?"

"Well, it went pretty well."

"I'm glad it went smoothly. But since you've already obtained your sixth spirit ring, you need to replace your spirit guides with another batch."

"Teacher, I think some soul guides are just right for use right now." Lin Xiao rejected Lin Jiayi's offer. "When I came back last night, I tried using a flying soul guide. I can already fly at full speed with a level five soul guide, but if I switch to a level six, the soul power consumption will probably increase significantly."

"Are you sure?" Lin Jiayi asked uncertainly, "The difference in speed is quite significant."

"Yeah." Lin Xiao nodded. "Soul guides like soul guide cannons naturally have greater power as their levels increase. But with flying soul guides, you need to consider the continuous consumption of soul power. I think long-term use is more important than excessive pursuit of speed."

"That's fine. Just think about it yourself. Come to me anytime if you need anything." Lin Jiayi stopped trying to persuade him. Soul Masters all have their own ideas. Some pursue extreme speed, while others, like Lin Xiao, focus more on consumption. Although Lin Xiao is his disciple, he doesn't want to interfere too much.

"If you want to go back to the lab, I'll give you the key." Lin Jiayi's gaze fell on the freshman in front of him again, "I'll look around for a while and then go back."

"Let me accompany the teacher." Lin Xiao said and glanced at Lin Jiayi's face.

It can be seen that Lin Jiayi's thoughts are mostly on the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy. Whether it is the admission of new students or the admission of special students by the academy, he will always be present in person.

Just like Xuan Ziwen, a teacher with a distinct personality, he was also quite patient and would do his best to provide any materials. It was no wonder Jing Hongchen trusted him so much and appointed him as the Dean of Studies; he truly had an extraordinary love for this place.

While pondering this, Lin Xiao also looked at the group of energetic freshmen in front of him. They were probably around 11 or 12 years old, their eyes full of curiosity.

But soon, his gaze paused slightly.
