Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Saint Master, Twelve Talismans Chaotic the Continent

Chapter 72 Soul Master Academy

……

Back in Tiandou City, Nan Feng brought Dugu Yan to the Martial Soul Temple.

Ye Lingling stayed here. When they set off for Sunset Forest, considering the dangers of the wild and that the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well was not suitable for children, Nan Feng left Ye Lingling behind to keep Ning Rongrong company.

Both being support characters, Ye Lingling is two years older than Ning Rongrong. One is introverted, and the other is extroverted, but at least in their first meeting, the two got along quite well.

"Brother Feng!"

Upon seeing Nan Feng return, Ning Rongrong, who was playing in the courtyard, ran up to him.

Children make friends very quickly; if you find the right approach, you can gain a friend in just a few minutes.

Nan Feng can fool even a group of adults, so he can easily fool children.

"Hasn't the Pope returned?" Nan Feng asked.

"No." Ning Rongrong shook her head.

"I haven't seen her come back since you left."

"What happened?"

"It's nothing, she's just in a bad mood and might be a bit short-tempered. If you run into her, be careful not to upset her," Nan Feng said.

"In a bad mood?" Ning Rongrong was taken aback.

Did you make her angry?

"No in the fundamental sense, but on the surface, yes," Nan Feng said.

Bibi Dong still can't let go of her past, which can be seen from her attitude towards Qian Renxue.

Although Bibi Dong's feelings for Yu Xiaogang have faded, the regret of her youth still lingers.

His understanding of romantic relationships was limited to theory and philosophy; in reality, he had never experienced them and did not understand them.

Even Bibi Dong, he didn't know how to describe their relationship; it certainly wasn't love.

As he said before, whether you love others or anything else, even a concept, you must first love yourself. A person who doesn't even love themselves cannot love others.

He loved nothing, including himself.

He must have been in that hellish place, the City of Slaughter, for too long. His mind was acting strangely in many ways. Although the extreme parts were balanced and he became much more stable after unlocking the Tiger Talisman, he knew very well that his mind was not normal.

He didn't even know what he was now; maybe he was just a madman, or perhaps a mentally ill person who would have intermittent bouts of madness.

……

After sending Ning Rongrong back to Qibaozhai and handing her over to Ning Fengzhi, who had been anxiously waiting for a day and a night, Nan Feng led Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling toward the Tiandou Royal Academy.

Since he was the one who got the person out, he should naturally send them back.

"How long have you been here?"

Walking inside the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Nan Feng felt quite uncomfortable. The atmosphere here was just like that of the Spirit Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy a few years ago.

"I've been here for two years, while Lingling only came this semester," Dugu Yan said.

It was because the Spirit Hall was chasing her grandfather two years ago that the two of them came to Heaven Dou City. Also, because her grandfather was seriously injured when he was being chased, he had to stay in the harsh environment of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well for a long time to recover, which is why she was sent to Heaven Dou Royal Academy to study.

Otherwise, the cultivation of a Jade Phosphorous Serpent Soul Master is completely different from that of a normal Soul Master, and there's nothing to be taught to her here.

"How do you guys feel about this place?" Nan Feng asked.

"How do I feel...?" Dugu Yan asked.

"What's wrong?"

"And you?" Nan Feng looked at Ye Lingling, who had remained silent the whole time.

Ye Lingling shook her head. "I don't like it."

"Why?" Nan Feng asked.

Ye Lingling paused for a moment, then said, "I just don't like it."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"I don't like it either," Nan Feng said.

Well-known Soul Master families, such as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, as well as smaller Soul Master factions, conduct their children's basic education themselves. Only the most ordinary Soul Master families, or Soul Master families below the Soul Master level, send their children to junior Soul Master academies at the age of six.

Including the Spirit Hall, the Spirit Master Academy in Spirit City is essentially an advanced Spirit Master Academy, but it has a special isolated area used to teach children from orphanages, low-level Spirit Master families, and those from the commoner class whose ancestors were blessed with good fortune, collected from Spirit Halls in various places. This area is also known as the primary Spirit Master Academy area.

Among them, the orphanage in Wuhun City does not accept just anyone. They only accept children born into families of Soul Masters, after all, it is a place to cultivate Soul Masters.

Non-Soul Master parents may give birth to children with Soul Power, but Soul Master parents will definitely give birth to children with Soul Power. This is the main reason why Soul Masters can become a stable class, and it also means that the number of Soul Masters will increase over time until they become commonplace.

The educational model of the Spirit Hall's primary spirit master academy is similar to raising poisonous insects. It is cruel and realistic. Only those who pass the graduation exam are qualified to join the advanced spirit master academy. Otherwise, after completing their studies at the primary spirit master academy, they will be assigned to a lower level of the Spirit Hall.

Death Canyon is a place where even Soul Saints might perish, but the Spirit Hall Junior Soul Master Academy uses it as its graduation assessment location. This assessment method makes the Spirit Hall Academy the only academy on the continent with a "death quota" within its own campus.

Only those who survive there are qualified to join the Spirit Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy.

That assessment was also a key factor in determining the treatment of those from humble backgrounds who came from low-level Soul Master families, or those with no connections, after they entered the advanced Soul Master Academy.

Because those who can study at the Spirit Hall's Advanced Soul Master Academy all have some kind of background, while those who lack talent and have no background, even if they enter the Advanced Soul Master Academy, will basically have no way to survive unless they are willing to kneel on the ground and become lackeys of those with powerful backgrounds.

After all, the world of Soul Masters is very realistic. If the other party is from a family of Soul Saints and you are from a lowly background with no connections, if your talent is stronger than his, he will be jealous, suppress you, or even kill you on a whim, and no one will care about your death.

After all, so what if someone is a genius? It's not like they're my family's genius. Letting someone you don't get along with grow up is just asking for trouble, isn't it?

Therefore, if you cannot achieve outstanding results in the graduation assessment and gain the attention of Soul Saints, Soul Douluo Bishops, or even Title Douluo Elders, then even if you enter an advanced Soul Master Academy, you will still be destined to be a dog.

Those who don't want to be dogs will silently disappear.
