Melee archer with maxed-out Douluo luck

Chapter 42: If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected is about to happen.

Because he followed the proper procedures, Han Li did not encounter any obstacles in enrolling in the school.

As the staff walking beside him continued to introduce the academy, Han Li's understanding of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy was transformed from the words in his memory to the reality before his eyes.

Han Li had visited academies before. Not to mention that he used to frequently come and go freely from Notting Academy, even after arriving in Wuhun City, he had still visited the Wuhun Hall Academy. Whether it was a primary or advanced academy, in terms of environment alone, they were far inferior to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy in front of him.

Rather than calling this academy an academy, it's more like a vast garden, the kind that rivals a scenic tourist area. Compared to the Spirit Hall Academy, where all facilities are laid out to maximize efficiency, well, there's absolutely no comparison.

Han Li's visit went largely unnoticed; they encountered one or two visitors like him every month. Then, one day in the future, the students of the academy would find that the former visitor had become their classmate—something the students of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy were already used to.

Most students who witnessed this scene simply sighed slightly, thinking that the college was about to have another handsome guy with good looks, but that was about it.

Of course, Han Li thought so too, even though it might disappoint those young ladies.

On his first visit, he didn't immediately ask the staff to take him to someone; that would have been too direct.

So, at the end of the tour, a small bag of gold soul coins quietly appeared in his hand, which he then accidentally lost to a staff member.

Amid the staff's bewildered expressions, he somewhat embarrassedly expressed his desire to catch a glimpse of the academy's genius, asking if he could observe from a distance, assuring them that it wouldn't disturb others and that he wouldn't speak ill of them afterwards.

After a three-second internal struggle, the staff member said they could only look at it from a distance. Han Li nodded, and the two sides reached a pleasant consensus.

Guided by the staff, the two turned left and right until they arrived at a building very close to the training ground and entered a room.

"This is it. You can see the training field from the window here, but you can only stay here for ten minutes. How about that?" the staff member asked Han Li, who was already standing in front of the window.

"Thank you, that's enough. I just wanted to see my future companions."

A hint of arrogance flashed across Han Li's face as he answered calmly.

"Okay, then you can do as you please. I won't bother you anymore."

The staff member didn't say anything, but sat down in the chair behind him and didn't respond to his words.

Another arrogant guy. He'd seen plenty of arrogant young men like this. After all, no one thinks they're inferior to others, especially when they have some talent. The staff member thought to himself, hoping that he wouldn't be discouraged after enrolling.

Han Li, who was standing in front, had his right eye lit up at some point, and looked at the group of people who were either training or playing around in the field.

Indeed, in his opinion, the people he was fighting were just fooling around, and their level of skill was far too low compared to his actual combat training. They were even inferior to Sister Xiu'er.

He had already obtained portraits of the relevant personnel from Salas, so there was no problem in distinguishing who was who. Moreover, the characteristics of the people he wanted to observe were quite obvious.

Hmm, it doesn't seem too late yet. The purple-haired girl doesn't seem to care much about that big oaf. Han Li thought to himself as he looked at the situation.

The girl in the black veil has a nice temperament. Hmm, so this is the healing ability of the Nine-Hearted Begonia. It's even stronger than his personal healing soul master. Very good, he likes it very much.

Han Li observed for a while longer, then turned around and looked at the relaxed staff, saying, "Alright, let's go. They're qualified to be my teammates."

Looking at his calm expression, the staff couldn't tell for a moment whether he was bragging or genuinely confident.

"The time isn't up yet, are you sure? Let me make this clear first, the fee is non-refundable, and this is your request to end it." The staff member emphasized the word "initially."

"Okay, let's go, that should be fine." Han Li nodded and confirmed.

"Okay, I hope to see you on the training field in the future."

The staff breathed a sigh of relief and offered their blessings in consideration of the gold soul coins.

"Yes."

Han Li answered seriously, then mentally added, "Yeah, right."

The staff member smiled, said nothing more, and walked out of the room first, leading him towards the academy gate.

On the way to the gate, the staff returned to work and continued to talk to him about the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. Han Li could tell that he was very proud to be a part of it when he talked about these things, and there was no doubt about it.

Of course, he had been very efficient in collecting money before, which was undeniable and made Han Li want to laugh.

The return trip was much faster, since we had already visited many of the places before.

Having already seen the academy's gates, Han Li thought his day's journey would come to a peaceful end.

Several people appeared at the academy's main gate. The leader was a young man who was holding a girl's hand, followed by four or five guards. They looked quite impressive.

"You're quite lucky to have met His Highness the Crown Prince, and the one beside him, who is the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. You must remember their faces clearly and never offend them."

Perhaps out of consideration for the gold soul coins, the staff member took the initiative to remind him and pulled him aside, instead of going over immediately.

"Okay, thank you for reminding me, I understand."

Han Li nodded and began to observe the two leaders.

The portrait of Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of Tiandou, was also included in the portrait that Salas had previously provided, perhaps for safety reasons.

Han Li glanced at him a few times and found that he was indeed as plain and unremarkable as depicted in the portrait.

His appearance is not particularly distinctive and rather androgynous, but his temperament is indeed very good. He looks very gentle and refined, more like a scholar than a prince.

"It's pretty much as I remember," Han Li commented. "Qian Renxue's disguise is actually quite good, because this is Xue Qinghe's original personality."

Then, he turned his gaze to the girl. She had short brown hair, fair skin, and a light blue dress that made her look very cute. But even though she was being led by Xue Qinghe, her eyes were not very attentive. She kept secretly observing the surrounding environment and people, as if she was plotting something in her heart.

Hmm, she looks quite cute, with a quirky and mischievous vibe. Perhaps Ning Fengzhi hasn't forced her to learn those tedious aristocratic etiquettes because of her age, or maybe this is her home turf, so she hasn't put on any pretense at all? Han Li silently speculated in his heart.

Just as he withdrew his gaze and stood obediently to the side with the staff to wait, the two of them and the guards behind them had already passed through the academy gate.

Then, almost simultaneously, everyone's eyes fell on him.
