Douluo Continent: Half-level Innate Realm, but a Sword Cultivator with a Heart-Only Mind

Chapter 38 Craving Immortal Herbs, Entering the Heavenly Dou Academy

Qi Mansion.

The housekeeper brought the news.

The Crown Prince came to visit.

Qi Dao immediately stopped cultivating and went to the reception room.

Upon seeing Xue Qinghe, Qi Dao bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, what brings you here?"

Xue Qinghe smiled warmly and said, "It's nothing, I just came to see if you're settling in well here."

Qi Dao clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am living very well here."

Xue Qinghe waved his hand.

"Hey, Adao, we don't need to be so formal in private. You can just call me Brother Xue, and we can address each other as brothers."

""

Since reading all of Qi Dao's information, Xue Qinghe has placed the utmost importance on Qi Dao.

Such a person must be firmly controlled and his heart must be won over.

Seeing this, Qi Dao had a guess in his mind.

The fact that Xue Qinghe suddenly became more enthusiastic towards her was most likely because he had more information about her.

If things go as expected, the stories of my years in Nottingham should have already fallen into Xue Qinghe's hands.

However, Qi Dao had no reason not to accept Xue Qinghe's overtures.

"Brother Xue!" Qi Dao said without the slightest hesitation.

"Hahahaha!" Xue Qinghe was very satisfied with the sight, as this would be the first step for him to completely subdue Qi Dao.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Xue Qinghe continued, "Adao, you're only eleven years old this year, aren't you?"

Qi Dao replied, "I'll still be twelve in six months."

Xue Qinghe nodded and said, "Others your age are still attending junior soul master academies. Why don't you go back to the academy for further studies for a while?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Dao's heart stirred.

Almost everyone who transmigrates to Douluo Continent encounters a certain opportunity.

That is the immortal herb in the Yin-Yang of Ice and Fire.

Immortal herbs can enhance potential, so Qi Dao was naturally interested in them as well.

However, his knowledge of the immortal herbs was limited to the few mentioned in the original work.

The original text describes the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum as a neutral celestial herb that, when consumed, can circulate qi in the limbs, unblock the eight meridians, and cultivate an indestructible body.

In addition, there are the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom. Taking these two immortal herbs together not only makes one immune to ice and fire, but also strengthens the body.

This is exactly what Qi Dao values.

The Heart Sword state has always been his trump card.

However, the Heart Sword state placed a great strain on his body, and he could not sustain it for long.

If he could consume these three immortal herbs, it would be a great help to him.

The most convenient way to access the immortal herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is undoubtedly through Dugu Yan.

That's why Qi Dao was moved when Xue Qinghe mentioned his desire to study at the academy.

This is undoubtedly an opportunity.

Qi Dao asked, "Are you going to the Heavenly Dou Academy for further studies?"

Xue Qinghe smiled and said, "Of course!"

"You should have heard of the Heaven Dou Academy. It is the most outstanding academy in the Heaven Dou Empire, with the best simulated environment and teaching staff."

"Especially the three education committee members, who are not only highly respected, but also all Contra-level powerhouses."

"So, what do you think? Want to go?"

"Yes, I am interested in joining the academy to continue my studies," Qi Dao nodded.

"Then leave this matter to me."

One month later, at Tiandou Academy, the Teaching Committee.

Xue Qinghe personally brought Qi Dao here.

The three education commissioners personally greeted them.

Xue Qinghe smiled and introduced the three men: "Three education commissioners, this is my little brother Qi Dao, eleven years old, a level twenty-two Great Soul Master."

The three education commissioners' eyes lit up after hearing the introduction.

He's already at level 22 at eleven?

His Highness the Crown Prince has sent over a promising talent.

This talent is among the best even within the Heaven Dou Academy.

Afterwards, Xue Qinghe introduced the three education commissioners to Qi Dao.

Chief of the Education Committee, Level 85 Control System Contra, Dream God Machine.

Bai Baoshan, the second-in-command of the Education Committee and a level 84 defensive Soul Douluo.

Zhilin, a level 82 control system Soul Master with three seats on the Education Committee.

After the introductions, the three education commissioners smiled kindly at Qi Dao.

Xue Qinghe continued, "Three members of the Education Committee, I'm sorry to trouble you with Qi Dao's affairs here."

"Your Highness, rest assured, I will place this child in the best class, where there are geniuses no less talented than him. I'm sure they will have a lot in common," Meng Shenji said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe smiled and nodded.

This year, Tiandou Academy produced several geniuses: Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lengling.

He knew all of these people; their talent was only so-so, but they couldn't compare to Qi Dao at all.

He looked at Qi Dao and said with a faint smile, "A Dao, then you can study at the Heavenly Dou Academy. If you encounter any problems, you can contact me anytime."

Upon seeing this, the three education commissioners showed a look of surprise on their faces.

They had assumed that Qi Dao was a newly recruited genius by His Highness the Crown Prince, but judging from his demeanor, His Highness the Crown Prince's attitude towards Qi Dao seemed a bit too good.

After Xue Qinghe left, the slightly thin Zhilin said to Meng Shenji and Bai Baoshan, "I'll take this child to find Zhou Huan."

Meng Shenji and Bai Baoshan nodded.

Zhou Huan is the most outstanding teacher among the Tianwei level teachers, and he also teaches the most outstanding group of Tianwei level students.

After saying that, Zhilin said gently to Qi Dao, "Child, come with me."

Qi Dao immediately followed.

Soon we arrived at a private office.

This is what makes Tiandou Academy so impressive; every teacher has their own private office.

The office door was open, and Zhilin led Qidao inside.

A young teacher who looked to be in his early thirties was sitting in the office.

Upon seeing that the visitor was Zhilin, he was startled and immediately stood up.

"Chihlin Education Commissioner, what brings you here? Is there something you need?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Qi Dao, who was standing next to Zhi Lin, and made a guess in his mind.

Zhilin smiled and said, "Teacher Zhou, I'm here to drop off your students."

After saying that, he pointed to Qi Dao beside him and laughed, "This is Qi Dao, an eleven-year-old, level twenty-two Great Soul Master, whose Martial Soul is the Peerless Sword."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan's eyes immediately lit up.

An eleven-year-old, level twenty-two Great Soul Master—besides Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng, who transitioned to the Heavenly Supreme level, perhaps only that girl Ye Lengling can compare to her talent.

Ye Lengleng is only nine years old, and because auxiliary Soul Masters cultivate slowly, she is only at level eighteen.

However, when she turns eleven, her soul power will definitely not be lower than Qi Dao's current level.

(The original work does not mention Ye Lengleng's specific age, but it seems that it is generally believed that Ye Lengleng is sixteen years old when she appears in the story and that her talent is higher than that of Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan.)

Zhou Huan patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Education Commissioner Zhilin, I will do my best to teach this child well."

Seeing this, Zhilin smiled with satisfaction.

The next day, Zhou Huan brought Qi Dao to the Tianwei-level training ground and introduced him to it.

The class he led was Class 1 of the Tianwei level, which had only twenty-four students in total.

Although the number of them is small, they are the most talented group.

Soon, the members of Class 1 of the Tianwei level arrived one after another, and looked at Qi Dao next to Zhou Huan with curious eyes.

Zhou Huan walked up to them and introduced them, "This is Qi Dao, a new member of Class One of the Tianwei level."

After saying that, he looked at Qi Dao.

"Qi Dao, introduce yourself to them!"

Qi Dao nodded and stepped forward.

"My name is Qi Dao, my martial soul is the Peerless Sword, and I am a level 22 Great Soul Master!"
