Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 124 Visiting the Various Academies of Tiandou (Part 2)

After leaving Shenfeng Academy, Huo Wu took them to the only academy in Tiandou City that actively recruited commoner soul masters: Lanba Academy.

Although it recruits commoner students, it does not exclude noble students. After all, in a place like Tiandou City where land is extremely valuable, maintaining the academy's livelihood requires a lot of money.

The relationship between the dean of Blue Tyrant Academy and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan doesn't seem to be very good. Naturally, he can't get funding from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan on the surface, so he can only try to find ways to increase his income.

The gatekeeper at Blue Tyrant Academy recognized Huo Wu, chatted with her for a few minutes, and then let her in.

Seeing this, Tang San sighed to himself, "Indeed, no matter where you are, you have to maintain good relationships to avoid a lot of trouble."

Blue Tyrant Academy covers a large area, similar to the four elemental academies, but its style is not very distinctive. Its general environment is similar to Notting Academy.

Tang San could understand this, since Liu Erlong was currently in a period of depression and didn't have much energy to manage the entire academy. Most of the time, it was probably other teachers in the academy who were managing it.

And what about Liu Erlong?

In most cases, she should just be a "high-level thug." When someone comes to challenge the school or cause trouble, she will step in and beat them up.

To be honest, it's only because this world has extraordinary powers that it can be said to be a world where strength is supreme. Otherwise, with Liu Erlong's personality and methods, how could she become the dean?

However, Liu Erlong also paid attention to the academy's talented students. In preparation for the Soul Master Competition, she kept a few students whose strength had reached the graduation standard, such as Jing Ling, Huang Yuan, Jiang Zhu, and Tai Long.

After all, the Soul Master Competition is a "job-seeking reality show". Regardless of whether the students in the academy can win the championship, as long as they perform well, they can be selected by the major forces on the continent, become nobles, and then promote the academy, expand its reputation, recruit more students, and make the academy grow stronger and give back to the academy.

In addition, Tang San once published a theory, or rather a suggestion: to diversify the Soul Battle arenas to reflect the different values ​​of different Soul Masters, which has led to many previously underestimated Soul Masters being given more important roles.

This has led many Soul Masters to admire Tang San even more.

"The students of Blue Tyrant Academy are significantly weaker than those of other academies."

Tang San's senses were sharp, and he felt the soul power fluctuations emanating from the students he encountered along the way. He shook his head inwardly, "Although as long as I reveal my identity, I can gain a foothold in this academy where more than 80% of the students are commoners, and even gain their admiration, Liu Erlong is a love-struck idiot, and she'll be very troublesome to deal with."

"Secondly, Yu Xiaogang might also come here. Given Liu Erlong's almost pathological infatuation with Yu Xiaogang, he definitely won't side with me. I don't want to be bound by him."

"More importantly, the amount of martial spirit data preserved in such academies is definitely not as much as that of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

After following Huo Wu and giving a general tour of Blue Tyrant Academy, Tang San and the others went to their last stop: Heaven Dou Royal Academy!

At this time, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy had not yet started a new round of enrollment, but Huo Wu was a student of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, so she could naturally enter, and she directly led Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Guang Ling into the inner courtyard.

The Imperial Academy of Tiandu was built in a mountain forest, but unlike those wild forests, the trees in this forest were all trimmed, and the ground was free of weeds and extremely flat.

"As expected of the Royal Academy, they are incredibly wealthy and generous, having renovated an entire mountain forest." Tang San looked around at the surroundings and couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course, otherwise how could it be called 'Royal'?"

As Huo Wu walked, she introduced the various training environments of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to Tang San, "There are many simulated training environments here, suitable for most Soul Masters on the continent, however—"

At this point, Huo Wu paused, looking at the three or five groups of nobles not far away, a hint of disgust appearing in her eyes, "Most of the students here are children of princes and nobles. Although their martial spirits are not bad because of their ancestors, and their cultivation talents are also good, the comfortable environment makes them not work hard. Most of them are just spoiled brats."

Tang San found this understandable.

After all, cultivating soul power is an extremely tedious process. These children were born into noble families and have access to countless resources. They can enjoy the best treatment from a young age and do not have to work hard to cultivate like commoner soul masters.

Perhaps in the eyes of these spoiled brats, the commoner Soul Masters' hard work is nothing more than to gain wealth, status, and beauty, while those born into nobility already possess these things, so why bother with hard work? Their only goal in cultivating might simply be to achieve spiritual satisfaction, namely: to perform well in the Soul Master Competition and gain the admiration of thousands.

When material needs are met, it is only natural to seek spiritual fulfillment.

only--

This world is not peaceful.

Power is necessary. Truth can only be truth if it is within the scope of power's reach; otherwise, it's just rough paper, too hard even to wipe your butt with.

Ten minutes later, Huo Wu led Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Guang Ling up a hillside where there was a building that resembled a church.

According to Huo Wu, that was the office of the three members of the teaching committee of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"The Heaven Dou Royal Academy has three teaching committee members, all of whom are Soul Douluo level. Meng Shenji, with the martial soul Black Demon, is level 85 and is a mental control type soul master. He can also act as a ranged output type strong attack soul master. Zhi Lin, with the martial soul Heavenly Green Vine, is level 83 and is a physical control type soul master. Bai Baoshan, with the martial soul Heavenly Star Furnace, is a physical and energy dual defense type soul master."

Listening to Huo Wu's introduction, Tang San became particularly interested in the name "Dream God Machine" and asked, "What kind of martial soul is Black Demon?"

"Um... it's just a humanoid black shadow, similar to the Naruto I knew before, but Meng Shenji's martial soul attribute is spirit, with a bit of dark attribute." Huo Wu recounted what she knew. "Do you think Meng Shenji's martial soul might be the same as mine?"

"It's possible, but he's already a Soul Douluo, so his Black Demon Martial Soul is probably already set and can't be changed by a Soul Ring, unless he reaches level 90 in the future and absorbs a 100,000-year Soul Ring with a dark attribute." Tang San said his guess. "Or, he might get some rare treasure and consume it to allow his Martial Soul to reveal its true form."

"A 100,000-year-old soul beast? And with the dark attribute? Looks like Committee Member Meng Shenji has no chance."

At this moment, Huo Wu had arrived at the gate and went up to knock on the door.

Boom boom boom!

"Come in."

An aged voice came from inside the door.

"It's the Education Commission."

Huo Wu opened the door and smiled at the three elderly people sitting in the hall organizing documents.

"It's Xiao Wu." Meng Shenji smiled.

Meng Shenji greatly admired Huo Wu, a genius. Not only did the Huo family send her over, signifying a closer cooperation between the Huo family and Tian Dou, but the girl before him was also an absolute genius!

Huo Wu, also known as Xiao Wu by acquaintances, will be referred to as Huo Wu from now on for the sake of distinction.
