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

Director Su is also a veteran of Notting College. He was already a teacher here when Qi's parents were still at Notting College.

He was delighted to see his two former students again.

Upon learning that the two had brought Qi Dao to school, he personally took Qi Dao to the dormitory.

Apart from the work-study dormitories, students from all grades at Notting College live in the same dormitory.

One dormitory can house as many as forty or fifty people.

The dormitory was extremely noisy, with a group of teenagers playing wildly!

To be honest, the dormitory is nicely decorated, considering it's not a work-study student dormitory.

However, too many people and too many different kinds of people make it unsuitable for meditation.

After Director Su and Mr. and Mrs. Qi left, the children immediately surrounded them.

The leader was a boy dressed in splendid clothes, with a hint of arrogance in his expression.

"Feeding the newbie, what's your name?"

Qi Dao glanced at him indifferently and casually said, "Shouldn't you state your own name before asking someone's?"

The boy in the lead was taken aback, then raised his chin and said, "My name is Xiao Chenyu, and my father is the city lord of Notting City!"

"Xiao Chenyu?"

Upon hearing this familiar name, Qi Dao couldn't help but take another look at the boy in front of him, and immediately understood the current timeline.

In the original story, when Tang San came to Notting Academy, Xiao Chenyu was in sixth grade.

Clearly, this is five years before the story began!

"My name is Qi Dao!" Qi Dao said calmly.

"By the way, my martial soul is a wolf, with innate level three soul power. What about you?"

Xiao Chenyu asked again. As the son of the city lord, although he was still just a little kid, he was more mature than his peers. He could tell that Qi Dao had an extraordinary temperament, so he wanted to befriend him.

"Peerless Martial Soul Sword, Innate Half-Level Soul Power!"

"what?"

Xiao Chenyu was taken aback. Hearing the first half of the sentence, he thought Qi Dao had a very high innate soul power.

After all, the name "Peerless Sword" sounds incredibly powerful.

Upon hearing about his soul power, it turned out he was just a nobody!

What's the difference between someone with half-level innate soul power and a piece of trash?

Xiao Chenyu's gaze towards Qi Dao immediately turned colder. He looked at the sword at the latter's waist and asked in confusion, "Your martial spirit is already a sword, so why are you still wearing a sword?"

Qi Dao said calmly, "This is my Martial Soul!"

"What a strange person. Who carries their weapon spirit with them at all times?" Xiao Chenyu muttered to himself, glancing at Qi Dao from head to toe, when a thought suddenly struck him.

Although this kid's innate soul power is a bit wasted, he's obviously bright. Perhaps I can follow my father's example and recruit him as an advisor.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chenyu coughed lightly, mimicking the appearance of his father, the city lord, from his memory.

"Qi Dao, I have high hopes for your potential. How about you join me?"

"If you stick with me, I guarantee no one at Notting Academy will dare bully you!"

Qi Dao couldn't help but smile as he watched the children playing house and forming cliques.

"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Chenyu frowned. "Do you look down on me? Or do you think I can't protect you?"

In Xiao Chenyu's view, Qi Dao should have readily agreed and thanked him as soon as he asked.

Otherwise, a useless person like him with only half a level of innate talent would definitely be bullied in the academy.

Qi Dao shook his head: "I just don't have the habit of being someone's underling!"

"Heh, if you don't want to be the underling, do you want to be the big brother?" Xiao Chenyu sneered.

Qi Dao countered, "Is that not allowed?"

"Hahaha, Boss Xiao has innate level three soul power and is the city lord's son. We all respect him as the eldest brother, but who do you think you are?"

"He also wants to compete with Boss Xiao for the position of eldest brother."

"That's right, kid. It's an honor for you that Boss Xiao personally invited you. Don't push your luck."

The two boys next to Xiao Chenyu burst into laughter.

Their innate soul power was also at the third level of the innate realm, and their parents were both soul masters, so they naturally carried a sense of superiority and looked down on Qi Dao.

Xiao Chenyu stood between the two, a smug expression on his face.

"Did you hear that, kid? Not just anyone can be the boss."

"You don't have the ability, you know that!"

"Be a good underling and I might give you another chance."

Qi Dao looked at Xiao Chenyu and said, "So, you have that ability?"

Xiao Chenyu raised his chin. "Of course!"

"If I defeat you, am I also qualified to be the boss?"

Qi Dao asked again. He didn't necessarily want to compete with a bunch of kids for the leader's position, but they were just too noisy. He needed to establish order and create a quiet cultivation environment.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

A burst of laughter immediately erupted from all around.

"A useless person with only a half-level innate talent actually dares to challenge Boss Xiao!"

"He must be crazy, or he's still half asleep!"

"Don't even mention Boss Xiao, I could beat him to a pulp."

Even Xiao Chenyu found it unbelievable.

"You actually dare to challenge me? Do you even know what you're saying?"

He was now beginning to doubt whether Qi Dao was truly capable of serving as his advisor.

That's simply overestimating themselves.

In fact, Qi Dao had considered the difference in their levels.

But he still felt it was worth a try.

Before level ten, none of them had soul skills. Although Xiao Chenyu's physique was greatly enhanced after his martial soul was attached to him, he was still a mortal in the end.

Although Wushuang's sword had cracks, it was still sharpened and could pose a threat to Xiao Chenyu.

Qi Dao placed one hand on the hilt of his sword and muttered to himself.

"Peerless, Peerless, no one believes in us. Do you think we should still take on the challenge?"

"Buzz~"

The next moment, Qi Dao felt a slight tremor, and a hint of fighting spirit.

"I see!"

The onlookers were stunned by what they saw.

Wait, why is this person suddenly talking to himself?

Talking to a sword?

Is he out of his mind?

This explains why a half-level Innate Realm loser like him dared to challenge Xiao Chenyu, who was at the third level of Innate Realm.

Qi Dao's eyes became more serious as he looked at Xiao Chenyu.

"I am very clear about what I am saying and doing."

"Now it's my turn to ask you!"

Will you accept the challenge?

Xiao Chenyu gave a soft snort.

"Fine, I'll accept the challenge. If you, a mere half-level innate talent, aren't afraid, why should I be?"

"But we need to find a different place; we can't operate freely here!"

Qi Dao glanced around and nodded in agreement.

"good!"

Soon after, everyone poured out of the dormitory and came to a grove of trees on the back hill of the college.

The impressive scale of the procession attracted the attention of passersby.

Is this about to start a group fight?

In the woods behind the mountain, on a spacious field.

Qi Dao and Xiao Chenyu faced each other, with a distance of seven or eight meters between them.

"Qi Dao, I won't hold back!" Xiao Chenyu's expression was arrogant, completely unable to see any reason for his defeat.

Qi Dao slowly drew his sword, Wushuang, and held it horizontally in front of him.

"What a coincidence, me too!"
