Triggering a treasure chest in Douluo Continent

Chapter 33 Going Home

Shi Quan chuckled. "Does that need proof? Haven't weapon spirits always been able to absorb the spirit rings of beast-type spirit beasts?"

"But it's a plant-based martial soul..."

The master wanted to explain further, but Shi Quan didn't give him a chance to speak, interrupting him directly: "Just tell me, do plant-based martial souls belong to the category of weapon-based martial souls?"

The master was speechless, but gritted his teeth and replied again, "It belongs to the weapon spirit."

"That's it then. So don't keep saying you came up with all those theories. Besides, plant-type martial souls have a higher compatibility with plant-type soul beasts. People just absorb plant-type soul beast soul rings whenever they can. You're just making excuses for yourself by emphasizing that plant-type martial souls can absorb beast-type soul beast soul rings. I've never seen a plant-type soul master absorb a beast-type soul beast soul ring as their first soul ring. Tang San, you're the first!"

As he spoke, Shi Quan couldn't help but give Tang San a thumbs up.

In Tang San's eyes, this thumbs-up was particularly mocking.

"However, the Mandragora Serpent is not much stronger than a plant-based soul beast. Master Yu, you've put in a lot of effort!" Shi Quan then gave Yu Xiaogang a thumbs up.

Yu Xiaogang's face was grim. Others might not know how the Mandala Snake died, but he and Tang San both knew that he had done almost nothing. It was said that Tang San had accidentally killed it, but in reality, Tang San had killed it with his own strength.

"Xiao Quan..."

Shi Quan originally wanted to disgust the two of them even more, but suddenly heard Mald's voice from behind.

"Teacher." Shi Quan paused slightly after opening his mouth, then turned to look at Mald, who had come down from behind him at some point.

Mald shook his head at him and said critically, "No matter what, Xiaogang is the teacher's good friend. Show him some respect."

"Yes, teacher." Upon seeing Mald, Shi Quan immediately adopted an obedient demeanor.

He glanced at Tang San and Grandmaster, then walked towards Mald with a grin. "Teacher, you still can't bear to part with me, so you came down to see me off?"

Mald glared at Shi Quan. "I'm afraid you'll cause some trouble for me before you leave."

"How could that be?" Shi Quan quickly shook his head. "Look, Tang San asked me to spar, but I didn't agree."

"You, how come I never knew you were so glib?" Mald shook his head with a smile.

Shi Quan chuckled, "It's not too late to know now, is it?"

While Malde and Shi Quan were chatting and laughing, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang on the other side had completely different expressions.

"Captain, the team is assembled." A soldier's voice came from afar.

"My lord, we may depart now." Fury looked at Shi Quan.

"Teacher, since you're coming down anyway, you might as well see me off." Shi Quan stepped forward and took Mald's arm.

"You, you." Mald shook his head with a smile and called out to Yu Xiaogang, "Xiaogang, I'll come find you in a bit, wait for me."

back door.

The disciplined Iron Guard has been fully assembled.

Malde and Shi Quan walked toward the back door chatting and laughing, showing no signs of reluctance at the impending separation.

"Teacher, I'm leaving now. I'll come see you again later." Shi Quan smiled and released Mald's arm, then stood up and helped him straighten his clothes.

"Go ahead." Mald patted Shi Quan's head affectionately.

As Shi Quan waved, he walked toward the carriage that the Iron Guard had prepared for him. Even after getting into the carriage, Shi Quan immediately stuck his head out and kept waving goodbye to Mald until the figure became blurry.

As he watched the figure recede into the distance, the smile on Mald's face gradually disappeared, replaced by worry. "Xiao Quan, your teacher believes that your theory will definitely succeed."

"In the near future, your name will surely resound throughout the continent, and you will become a true master!"

After saying this, Mald turned and went back to the hospital.

……

"Sir, where are we going?"

"My home, Shijia Village!"

……

Shijia Village.

The sun is setting.

Golden sunlight shone on the villagers chatting idly in the streets and alleys.

Boom boom boom!

The sound of armored vehicles clashing came from afar.

Because they were wearing iron armor, the Iron Guards did not march very fast. It was not until nightfall that the group arrived outside Shijia Village.

The villagers had never seen anything like it before, and they were all stunned and frozen in place.

"Captain Fury, you can set up camp outside the village. I'll go in and inform the village chief and the others." Shi Quan quickly got off the carriage.

"My lord, I'll go with you."

"Set up camp here." After leaping off his horse, Fury gave the order to the troops and immediately chased after Shi Quan.

Upon seeing this, Shi Quan shook his head.

He began to wonder whether Xue Qinghe had sent these people to monitor him or to protect him.

After entering the village, Shi Quan saw an acquaintance and immediately stepped forward, saying, "Uncle Shi, please tell the village chief that these soldiers are here to protect me. Tell the villagers not to panic. I'm going home now."

Watching Shi Quan's departing figure, Shi Yi finally reacted and hurriedly ran towards the village chief's house.

"Dad, Mom, I'm home."

Before I even entered the door, Shi Quan's voice could already be heard.

Shi Jian and Li Meili were idling at home when they suddenly heard a noise outside the door. They exchanged a glance before realizing what was happening.

Li Meili jumped up and quickly walked outside. "Xiao Quan, you're back."

Shi Jian, however, remained calmer, and walked outside with a hint of worry in his expression.

"Mom!" Shi Quan excitedly stepped forward and hugged Li Meili.

Li Meili was initially delighted, but when she saw Fury behind Shi Quan, she stiffened. "Who is this, Xiao Quan?"

Shi Quan said with his head held high, "Dad, Mom, don't worry. This is Captain Fury. They're here to escort me to the Heaven Dou Royal Advanced Academy."

"Tian Dou Royal Advanced Academy?" Li Meili and Shi Jian were both taken aback.

"Please come in and have a seat, sir." Without thinking too much, Shi Jian could only invite Fury to come in and sit down.

Fury waved his hand. "You two don't need to worry about me. You can come inside and talk if you have something to say. I'll just keep watch outside."

"This won't do..."

Shi Jian was about to say something when Shi Quan interrupted him, saying, "Dad, you don't need to worry about them. They have their own rules. Let's just talk. Let's go inside."

As he spoke, Shi Quan pulled Li Meili and Shi Jian into the main room in the middle.

Shi Jian glanced at Fury at the door, then at Shi Quan, and frowned as he asked, "Weren't you still studying at Notting Junior Academy? Why are you suddenly going to Tiandou Royal Senior Academy?"

"That's because your son is so capable," Shi Quan said with a grin.

"Xiao Quan, speak properly." Li Meili glared at Shi Quan, then whispered, "This guy doesn't seem simple. What's going on?"

"I understand." Shi Quan waved his hand. "I've already graduated early from Notting Junior Academy. Because of the dean's recommendation, he helped me enroll in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and I was accepted. They're here to escort me to study."

Shi Jian continued, "Why the advanced academy? Shouldn't you go to the intermediate academy after graduating from the junior academy? How did you jump straight to the advanced one?"

"Didn't I already tell you? It's because your son is so capable, right?"

Shi Jian seemed to realize something and asked repeatedly, "What level is your soul power now?"

Shi Quan whispered mysteriously, "It's level twenty-one."

Upon hearing this, Shi Jian and Li Meili's eyes widened in surprise, and Li Meili covered her mouth, unable to utter a word.

"Alright, they know, so you don't need to be so surprised. Otherwise, how do you think I got accepted into the Heaven Dou Royal Advanced Academy?" Shi Quan chuckled as he summoned his martial soul, and two dazzling soul rings, one yellow and one purple, emerged from the soles of his feet.

"Two spirit rings!" Shi Jian and Li Meili were filled with shock.

"But Xiao Quan, why are one of your spirit rings yellow and the other purple? I remember that awakened masters have white and yellow spirit rings, right?" Li Meili curiously touched the spirit rings under Shi Quan's body and then reached through them with her hand.

Shi Quan said with a smile, "They're all spirit rings, there's no difference, they're all the same. Some people even have black and red spirit rings."

Upon hearing this, Fury, who was outside the door, couldn't help but glance into the room.

How can these be the same?

So, you just casually throw around terms like black, red, ten-thousand-year spirit rings, and one-hundred-thousand-year spirit rings?

Shi Jian asked again, "What kind of academy is the Heaven Dou Royal Advanced Academy? Is it an academy of the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family?"

"Captain Fury, could you introduce me to the Heavenly Dou Royal Advanced Academy for my parents?" Shi Quan looked at Fury at the door.

Upon hearing Shi Quan suddenly call his name, Fritz paused for a moment before reacting and introducing himself: "The Heaven Dou Royal Advanced Academy belongs to the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family and is one of the best academies in the Heaven Dou Empire. The dean is His Majesty the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire. The academy has three veteran teachers, all of whom are Soul Douluo of level 80 or above. Its teaching staff is the strongest in the entire empire, without exception."

As Fury explained, Shi Jian and Li Meili's mouths remained agape from the beginning until now.

They had never even left the Fasno Province, let alone the Heavenly Dou Empire, the superior power of the Fasno Province.

Their son has now been admitted to an academy run by the royal family of the Heavenly Dou Empire, and the dean is none other than the current emperor.

They never dared to imagine such a thing before, but now it has actually happened.

Even Shi Jian, who is usually known for his composure, was too excited to speak at this moment.

Li Meili, on the other hand, was the first to react, picking Shi Quan up in her arms and saying, "I knew our little Quan was the best."

Shi Jian was naturally happy to hear this news, but at the same time, he was still a little worried. He was concerned that Shi Quan was too special and might be targeted by some people with ulterior motives.

Shi Quan knew that his father was a steady and reliable person who thought things through more than most people. His main purpose in returning home was to prevent his parents from worrying about him.

Shi Quan clenched his fist, head held high, looking at Shi Jian and Li Meili. "Once I get to study at the Heaven Dou Royal Advanced Academy, I'll have the entire Heaven Dou Empire behind me. If anyone dares to bully me, I'll complain to His Majesty the Emperor..."
