"Gods and spirits!"

Qin Qi was slightly surprised by the abilities possessed by Wugensheng, the most mysterious person in the world of God and Spiritual Being.

Legend has it that this move can break all techniques made of Qi, which sounds amazing, right?

But it's actually quite powerful; however, it seems to be of little use against true masters.

"This trick works well against monsters with complex mechanics, but it seems to be useless against monsters with high numerical values."

Qin Qi recalled what he knew: Wugensheng had his head pressed to the ground twice.

The first time was when Bao Ying Ge Zhang Zhiwei, who didn't have any special skills, went up and slapped Wu Gensheng to the ground.

If Zhang Jingqing hadn't intervened, Zhang Zhiwei, given his temperament, would have truly been killed by Wugensheng.

Another time was when he was facing Zuo Ruotong face to face. At that time, Wugensheng was taking a beating while untying Nisheng.

It can be said that if Zuo Ruotong hadn't initially intended to kill, Wugensheng would never have been able to hold out for so long.

"You can solve it, but others can keep adding to it. As long as they add to it faster than you can solve it, it's useless."

After a moment of excitement, Qin Qi calmed down. No matter how powerful one's abilities and methods are, they still depend on one's own life and cultivation.

Wugensheng's great reputation was not solely due to divine intervention, but also to his unwavering resolve and extremely high level of spiritual cultivation.

"The rewards are more plentiful, but I feel like there's also a lot more to learn and practice."

Qin Qi thought back for a moment and gave a wry smile. He had gained quite a lot this time.

But if he wants to fully utilize these abilities, he still needs to study and practice diligently.

"Ah~~~ Let's rest for a while."

Qin Qi looked at the sky, closed his eyes, and lay down to enter a meditative state.

Today seemed to go smoothly, but every action felt like walking a tightrope high in the air.

Even a slight deviation could lead to failure, and he has already exhausted a great deal of his energy, physical strength, and mental strength.

......................................................

Before they knew it, it was evening. Qin Qi had rested for half a day and his physical strength and energy had recovered considerably.

"Kid, you're having a pretty good time here."

Dugu Bo walked over with a glass of wine, tossed one to Qin Qi, and then sat down.

"I'm alright. What did you need me for?"

Qin Qi looked at the wine in the glass, took a sip, and found it to be quite good; it was a nourishing wine made from various medicinal herbs.

"Nothing much, just wanted to chat with you, you little monster."

Now that you've graduated, where are you planning to go next?

"Are you planning to go to an intermediate-level Soul Master Academy? Or are you planning to switch schools and go directly to an advanced-level Soul Master Academy?"

Dugu Bo looked at Qin Qi and asked.

"Hmm... I haven't decided yet."

Qin Qi took a sip of wine, and as soon as it entered his stomach, he felt warm all over.

“A genius like you would receive invitations from various academies, but I suggest you don’t accept them.”

Dugu Bo smiled and spoke.

"Isn't that a good thing? Why wouldn't I accept it?"

Qin Qi smiled and asked.

"Because I see a reflection of myself in you. You don't like being restrained by others; you like to be free."

"But once you join the Soul Master Academy, you will be bound to the forces behind them."

Dugu Bo's expression turned serious. Having been alone in the world of Soul Masters for so many years, he knew these things all too well.

Tell me more.

Qin Qi also became serious; he really hadn't figured out what to do next.

I was thinking of going to an advanced soul master academy to continue my studies, but now it seems I can't be so hasty.

"The largest academy in the Heaven Dou Empire is the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, which has a rich faculty."

"The principal is personally appointed by the emperor, and there are three Soul Douluos who are stationed at the academy year-round."

"With your talent, you'll definitely receive excellent care if you join them. It's even possible that three Soul Douluos will take you as their apprentice."

Dugu Bo spoke up.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

Qin Qi understood what Dugu Bo meant, but he still pretended to be confused and spoke up.

"If you are from a noble family or have a powerful background, then it's fine for you to go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

"Unfortunately, you are not like that. You have no background, no noble status, only talent."

“If you go, you’ll be tied to the royal family. If something happens to the nobles in the future, you’ll be in trouble too.”

"And you should know what kind of people those nobles are."

Dugu Bo chuckled coldly, picked up his wine cup, took a sip, and spoke.

"Well, from what I've heard, you seem to have a good relationship with the Heavenly Dou royal family, right?"

Qin Qi looked at Dugu Bo. He remembered that Dugu Bo should be an advisor to the Heavenly Dou Royal Family.

"I'm just an advisor, but I'm not tied to them. I'm just giving them face."

Dugu Bo shook his head, stood up, looked at the sky, and sighed.

"I have always pursued freedom, but to live, one must make certain trade-offs."

"I am a Title Douluo, and also the most feared Poison Douluo. If I don't make a statement, neither nobles nor royalty will tolerate me."

"They are terrified that one day they might be poisoned by me."

Dugu Bo spoke up.

"But they don't dare to force you."

Qin Qi looked at Dugu Bo and spoke.

"Hahaha, yes, they don't dare to force me. Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to lose."

"My Dugu family is reduced to just me and Yan Yan. If you really push me too far, I'll take Yan Yan and run away."

"Then they can just wait. I can't kill their Title Douluos, but I can make sure that only their Title Douluos are left dead!"

Dugu Bo revealed an extremely arrogant smile. In a one-on-one fight, there were far too many people who could beat him.

But when it comes to underhanded tactics, he's never been afraid of anyone in his life.

Especially now that he and his granddaughter have found a cure for their illnesses, he is no longer afraid of anyone.

"There are only those who steal for a thousand days, but not those who guard against thieves for a thousand days, especially a titled Douluo like you."

Qin Qi shook his head. The reason why assassins are so terrifying is that they can spend days, months, or even years waiting for an opportunity.

You have to worry about being assassinated whether you're eating, sleeping, going to the toilet, or even having sex with your lover.

In this situation, you won't need an assassin to kill you; you'll scare yourself to death.

"What if I choose another advanced academy?"

Qin Qi looked at Dugu Bo and asked.

Chapter 78 When autumn comes on the eighth day of the ninth month, my flowers will bloom and all other flowers will wither!

Which of the other advanced colleges would you like to choose?

Dugu Bo looked at Qin Qi and asked.

"Hmm, the Four Elements Academy? How about the Water, Fire, Thunder, and Wind Academy?"

Qin Qi asked.

"Each of these four academies has its own sect and its own family behind it."

"And they don't recruit children from ordinary families, oh, they do recruit from Tianshui, but only pretty young girls."

"You...it's impossible."

Dugu Bo looked at Qin Qi and said jokingly.

"What about the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex? The Elephant Armor Academy? The Beast Academy? The Plant Academy?"

Qin Qi continued to ask.

"Don't even think about it. They each have their own power base and their own sects. If you join them, you'll be tied to them."

Dugu Bo smiled even more broadly and spoke.

"Oh no, the passage to the upper level is now blocked."

Qin Qi smiled and shook his head. Back then, Tang San and the others casually rode the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.

It seems that the protagonist's halo and his romantic infatuation were the factors at play; otherwise, Tang San and his friends would have inevitably become appendages of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan.

“You’re right. The channels to the upper class are blocked, and the poor have no choice.”

"Either you join them and grovel, or you're trapped underneath them; there's no third option."

"Otherwise, why do you think they open schools and teach you for free? Is it for charity?"

Ultimately, it's all about expanding their own power!

Dugu Bo looked at Qin Qi with a very serious expression. The higher the level, the better the environment and resources needed.

Without the help of sects and families, even if you have exceptional talent, it will be difficult to level up.

Look at Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo, why did they join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School? One reason is that Ning Fengzhi knows how to conduct himself.
