Lu Mingfei starts from Douluo.

But he quickly shook his head. It looked familiar, but it had nothing to do with him. Why think so much about it?

Happy times always pass too quickly. Soon after, Ning Fengzhi came out of the private room, and Ning Rongrong, a little girl, was already full. They quickly said goodbye, some going home and others going to the hotel.

However, the antics of Oslo, Yufeng, and the other drunkards were giving Qin Ming a headache. It wasn't the first time; they were usually very well-behaved, so why were they so drunk today? Wouldn't this make them a laughingstock for Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?

In fact, it can't be entirely their fault. Everyone was drinking the wine based on their past experience, but they forgot what kind of wine they drank before. Now they've switched to wine supplied by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and the quality is far inferior.

So early in the morning, Lu Mingfei and the others were woken up by Qin Ming without even having breakfast, and ordered to run back to the Royal Academy on the spot, which also served as a chance to sober up.

As soon as they stepped out of the Heaven Dou City gates, Qin Ming uttered a harsh threat: "I didn't invite you to a dinner party so you could become drunkards. No one is allowed to use soul power. Whoever is the last to return to the academy will have to run a hundred laps around the track!"

"Damn!" Even Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. One lap around their track is nearly 1 meters long, and a hundred laps is longer than two marathons. Even using soul power would be half-dead!

"Run!" Lu Mingfei took the lead and ran ahead, followed closely by Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan.

"No!" The Shi brothers immediately cried out in despair. How could two defensive-type Soul Masters outrun this group of freaks? They couldn't even outrun Ye Lingling.

Seeing that Lu Mingfei and Yu Tianheng had abandoned all sense of decency and made a hasty retreat, the Shi brothers exchanged a glance and tacitly turned their attention to the culprits who had been urging them to drink all night: Oslo and Yu Feng.

"Teacher Qin only said that we are not allowed to use soul power, which means that he agrees that we can use this method, right?"

"Then what are we waiting for?"

Yu Feng and Oslo were still hungover and not fully sober when they suddenly noticed two burly men staring at them menacingly from the left and right.

"You two are really kind. We'll thank you properly when we get back to the academy!"

"Wait, why me?"

Oslo and Yufeng looked at the large hands resting on their shoulders, feeling like crying.

They're bullies who prey on the weak! If you're so capable, why don't you go find the captain up front? He's holding that beautiful woman's hand!

-

Countless lessons in history have proven that running ahead is shameful, and running ahead with a girl in your arms is the most shameful of all!

On the morning of a day off, hundreds of students at Tiandou Royal Academy had the privilege of witnessing a group of the academy's future stars performing morning exercises on the academy's playground.

"You guys have disappointed me so much. You call yourselves a team? You even came up with the idea of ​​sabotaging each other. After breakfast, you'd all have to run a hundred laps." Qin Ming said to the team members who were lying on the ground resting, looking utterly disappointed. "Especially you two, Lu Mingfei and Yu Tianheng. As captain and vice-captain, you have absolutely no team discipline. Add fifty more laps!"

Lu Mingfei cried out in his heart that he was wronged. He and Yu Tianheng had noticed something was wrong after running for less than two minutes and quickly slowed down. Who knew that in just two minutes, they would end up killing each other?

Lu Mingfei wanted to roll his eyes, but in the end he obediently started running the exercises. He had figured it out early on. Today's lesson was called "Sharing Weal and Woe," but they weren't some hot-blooded idiots. This kind of tactic was too childish.

He was now curious to know which kindergarten Qin Ming had graduated from. How could a Soul King like him still be so naive? Did this world give preferential treatment to these airheads?

Chapter 67 Preparation

"Hiss! Such strong spiritual pressure..."

"He's probably a captain-level figure..."

On the main arena of the Great Soul Arena, a fierce team battle was underway. Lu Mingfei turned to look at Li Lan, who was watching the battle from the sofa next to him, and stared at her with wide eyes: "Why are you mimicking my speech?"

Li Lan shrugged and spread her hands: "I've been influenced by what I've seen and heard. It's because I've been hanging out with you for so long."

Lu Mingfei slapped his forehead. For a moment, he really thought Li Lan was from the same place as him. It turned out that she had just picked up his bad talk and bad habits.

Damn it, why did he choose this instead of learning all those good qualities he has?

"Boss, I finally made it to the advanced academy, you don't have to look down on me like this, do you?" Li Lan said pitifully. "If you become rich and powerful, don't forget me!"

"What the hell! I've already thrown you a celebration banquet, and there's even a barbecue buffet later!" Lu Mingfei grumbled, but there was still some joy on his face. They'd known each other for almost two years, and Li Lan had finally broken through to the Great Soul Master level.

I wonder what my luck will be like at the end of this year, but everyone around me is breaking through barriers one by one.

Yu Tianheng has officially broken through to the Soul Master realm and has now returned to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, preparing to absorb the exclusive thousand-year-old soul beast that the sect had long ago tailored for him.

This is the third soul skill most suitable for the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, discovered from the centuries-old heritage of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. With the addition of Soul Master status, he can transform his limbs into dragon forms. Yu Tianheng's strength upon his return will be several times greater than before.

Inspired by her boyfriend's breakthrough, Dugu Yan is now only one step away from becoming a Soul Master. She has also returned to her hometown to cultivate in seclusion, and it is estimated that she will not give up until she becomes a Soul Master.

Therefore, the team's training in recent months has been temporarily suspended, which is why Lu Mingfei decided to bring his underlings to the academy's free luxury viewing room to celebrate.

It's not that he's stingy; thrift and frugality are traditional virtues.

"Brother Lu, are you going to go on stage later?" Li Lan was quite excited as it was her first time in such a high-class place.

Lu Mingfei shook his head. He was level 28 now and had reached the Gold Battle Soul level a few months ago. Battle Soul was not very meaningful to him now. At most, Qin Ming would have him take Ye Lingling to fight two-on-two matches to train Ye Lingling's on-the-spot reaction, and then he would have to fight a difficult one-on-two match and barely win before leaving the stage.

“That’s true.” Li Lan thought about Lu Mingfei’s record and realized that participating in a competition of the same level was meaningless.

"By the way, I just got promoted these past few days and I heard that the young lady from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is coming to our academy too. Brother Lu, is she coming for you?" Li Lan raised an eyebrow and revealed his signature lewd smile.

"What's it to you? Go to the hall and register for the Soul Battle later, let me see your second Soul Skill."

Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes speechlessly. He was just about to praise him for his hard work, but the person who came up was focused on the college gossip!

He had already made up his mind that if he didn't give Li Lan a good beating in the next few months, he would be doing a disservice to his status as the boss.

However, when Ning Rongrong was mentioned, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but scratch his head. A few days ago, Xue Qinghe told him that she was now level 19, just one step away from becoming a Great Soul Master. It was estimated that it would be within this month, and she would probably be enrolled next month.

However, he will only stay in the academy for about half a year. He should be able to endure it for a while. After all, he is just a little girl. He shouldn't be more difficult to deal with than an avalanche in the academy, right?

-

A few days later, Yu Tianheng finally returned from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Having just broken through to the Soul Venerable realm, he was in high spirits and riding high on his success.

As soon as he returned to the academy, he was about to show off his dragon transformation to his classmates.

"My God!"

"Is this the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, the number one beast martial soul on the continent?"

Listening to his teammates' praises, Lu Mingfei thought the dragon transformation was some kind of earth-shattering, awe-inspiring feat. But when he looked at it, all he saw was a left hand that had turned into a blue dragon claw, which looked completely out of place.

Originally, Yu Tianheng could be considered a lightning-fast man who could control thunder, but now that he has broken through, he has become a freak and an oddball, like someone from Resident Evil.

Lu Mingfei thought his dragon form was strange enough, but compared to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, he still had to admit he was inferior.

I don't know what Oslo Graphite and the others were thinking, they kept praising how cool the dragon claw was.

But being handsome or anything like that isn't the point. The point is, Lu Mingfei saw that eager fighting spirit resurface in Yu Tianheng's eyes again, and he instantly felt a headache coming on.

"Big brother, you think you're all that now that you've broken through, huh?" Lu Mingfei thought to himself, his face expressionless. He turned to run away, but as expected, Yu Tianheng had given him another set of tactics.

"Mingfei, this is the true power of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. When you break through next year, we'll have a showdown!" Yu Tianheng stood tall and proud, full of confidence. Whether it was the power amplified by the dragon claws or the third soul skill, it could be said that at the Soul Master stage, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex truly demonstrated the strength of a True Dragon Martial Soul.

"No problem," Lu Mingfei casually agreed, but he had already made a plan in his mind.

When he was hunting for his third spirit ring six months later, he bid farewell to his teacher. Since he was leaving, he had to do it cleanly and decisively. If he waited until he returned to the academy to say goodbye, he might be targeted by someone with ulterior motives.

He knew perfectly well that countless people in Tiandou City were secretly eyeing his martial soul. If it weren't for Xue Qinghe and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he might have ended up in some kind of imprisonment!

Testimonials

Unexpected events are always lurking throughout life.

I actually wrote the beginning of this book two years ago, but I failed the internal submission and passed it directly. Last year, I missed the bar exam by 1 point and couldn't find a job at the end of the year, so I picked up this book again, deleted and revised it, and finally got it approved. But because the timing was wrong, it still fell short of the three-level certification.

Douluo Continent was the second novel I read in junior high school, while I didn't read Dragon Raja until after graduating from university. I was deeply moved when I read it because I also have a Chen Wenwen, but I'm even more unlucky than Lu Mingfei because I didn't even have the chance to confess my feelings.

That's why I really like this hapless kid.

Just like everyone is criticizing him for being weak, we all know in our hearts that what everyone is really criticizing is the weak version of ourselves that we were in the past and that we are still weak now.

This is the original intention behind the beginning of this story: we are all unlucky kids, but we also hope that one day unlucky kids can stand up for themselves, and the story of unlucky kids will never end.

Special thanks to readers such as "心上如是", "追书求书看书", "未都七夜", and "飞翔之花" for their continued enthusiastic comments and support.

Thank you to "Book Friend 20200402150718176" for the Qidian Coins donation.

Finally, thank you all for your support and company. I'll get back to writing now.

Chapter 68 Breakthrough to Soul Master

What exactly is the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?

In the eyes of the general public, this is the number one academy in the Heaven Dou Empire, possessing the most outstanding faculty, the most complete simulated training facilities, the most solid backing, and reliable friendships with classmates that can benefit you for a lifetime.

For aspiring Soul Masters eager to experience the exciting life of the Soul Master world, this place is like paradise. But if forced to pinpoint its most outstanding feature, Lu Mingfei would undoubtedly answer:

A wealth of talented people have emerged!

In particular, the strong addition of Ning Rongrong, the fourth-ranked figure of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, in the first half of the year brought about a dramatic change in the ecological niche of the entire Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

What kind of people are these so-called traditional nobles of the Heavenly Dou?

Gentleman, generous, kind, charming, or gentle?

None of them.

These guys are lolicon, and they're shameless, perverted lolicon who want to live off women!

Especially led by Xue Beng, the fourth prince of Tian Dou, the school bullies changed their allegiance and became the goddess's bodyguard team on Ning Rongrong's first day of school.

So the original image of a passionate high school boy was instantly transformed into a childish Hello Kitty play!

So, could this be considered a disguised form of turning back from the wrong path? Lu Mingfei rubbed his forehead, trying to find some humor in his misery.

With Ning Rongrong's arrival, his peaceful and harmonious campus life is gone forever.

"Lu Mingfei, open the door." A rapid knocking sound came from the dormitory entrance.

Lu Mingfei sprang from the bed with a somersault, then flipped off the third-floor balcony with his knees slightly bent, landing gracefully. The whole process was seamless and he remained expressionless, perfectly embodying the essence of Uncle Long's furniture store war god technique.

It wasn't that he lacked patience with children, but rather that he genuinely didn't have time to indulge her antics today. He already sensed that he was just one step away from that crucial moment.

That night, in the simulated training ground, Lu Mingfei slowly opened his eyes amidst the clamor of the wind. The moon had already risen above the zenith, clearly indicating that it was a new day.

Lu Mingfei took out his diary and casually flipped to a new page: Day 988 of the Advent Calendar, Chen Wenwen, will I still have a chance to see you?

Lu Mingfei remembered it was a morning, after all, the start of a new semester always happens in the morning.

He overslept on the first day of school. Because the junior high and senior high schools started one day apart, he missed his uncle's BMW. As he was struggling to get to Shilan, a black Passat passed by.

The wind from the tires whipped up dandelions from the roadside, which landed on his hair. He raised his hand to brush them away and happened to catch a glimpse of a white shoulder through the right window.

Five minutes later, he arrived at the school through the flow of luxury cars and saw many familiar faces in the bustling crowd: Liu Miaomiao, Chu Zihang, and the two crooked cherry blossom trees that had been neglected for years.

That morning, he looked around aimlessly, not knowing what he was looking for. Finally, urged by the ringing bell, he obediently found the new classroom for the first year of high school. However, his heart skipped a beat the moment he entered the door.

For a moment, he felt that God was being kind to him. If this wasn't fate, then what was it?

Chen Wenwen sat quietly by the window with her head down, holding Marguerite Duras's "The Lover." Sunlight shone on her cotton dress and skin, making everything seem transparent.

Lu Mingfei stared at them for a couple of seconds and then felt a little embarrassed, so he would occasionally look away at the crooked trees outside the window. For the first time, he found the two crooked trees quite pleasing to the eye.

He had read a book called "Shanghai Fortress," which said, "There are 20,000 people in the world who will fall in love with you at first sight... but I think that you ultimately know what 'love at first sight' is all taught to you by the first person you fall in love with."

So for the first time, he had something to look forward to about the future and made a grand decision in his heart, which can be summarized as either hanging himself on one crooked tree or becoming another crooked tree.

However, he's an incredibly unlucky guy, so unlucky that he was inexplicably transported to another world—a ridiculous situation. Even if he wanted to become a crooked tree, he couldn't find a place to plant himself.

Three years have passed. Who knows how many more three-year periods there will be? Will he really have another chance to see another crooked tree?

"Soul Master!"

"A nine-year-old Soul Master!"

……

In the Education Committee's office hall, Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan, and Zhilin, three Soul Douluos, took turns patting Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, feeling the exceptionally strong and powerful Quasi-Soul Venerable-level soul power, and couldn't stop smiling.

As we all know, there are periods of fatigue in the cultivation of Soul Masters. As the level increases, the cultivation time to improve Soul Power will inevitably be extended proportionally. In particular, the last one or two levels of each major stage often have so-called bottleneck periods, and the difficulty of breaking through them doubles, which is a nightmare for those who cannot get through them.

But Lu Mingfei didn't have this problem at all. Breaking through cultivation was as easy as drinking water for him. They couldn't even imagine how brilliant Lu Mingfei's future would be.

Even the Pope, who now possesses twin martial souls, may not be able to overshadow Lu Mingfei's brilliance in the future.

"Great! You did a great job, Mingfei. Congratulations on becoming the fastest person in the history of the continent to reach the Soul Venerable level." Meng Shenji was so excited that he pulled out his hair. A Soul Venerable at the age of nine—such an unprecedented achievement! He will definitely become a peerless powerhouse who dominates the continent in the future!

After all, Lu Mingfei wasn't just fast at cultivating; his combat strength was unmatched among those of the same level. In fact, even they were unaware of Lu Mingfei's full power. Fighting across levels was not difficult for him.

"Mingfei, what's your decision on the third spirit ring?" Zhilin straightened his appearance and looked at Lu Mingfei with a smile.
