Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 67 Xu Tianxi: Don't worry, Dean, the students will catch up with Senior Xiao and Senior Meng as quickly as possible.

"Eh? Xiao Meng, why are you here too?"

Jing Hongchen hurried from the dean's office to the soul engineer qualification examination room. As soon as he dropped from the sky, he noticed that his granddaughter was also here, looking inside from time to time, as if waiting for someone to come out.

Meng Hongchen shuddered, then turned around and seamlessly put on a sweet smile. He walked forward affectionately, took Jing Hongchen's wrist, raised his fist, and said passionately:

"I happened to be passing by here, and I heard Director Lin say that the damned Xuan Ziwen was trying to snatch your favored student. How could I possibly stand to hear that? As your granddaughter, I must come and fight Xuan Ziwen!"

"It just so happens that Junior Tianxi and I have gotten to know each other quite a bit during this time. With both of us here, our presence is definitely much more significant than Xuan Ziwen alone!"

Hearing this, Jing Hongchen, who was still a little skeptical in his heart, suddenly smiled. He touched Meng Hongchen's forehead lovingly, and a smile of determination appeared on his face:

"Don't worry, Xiao Meng. Don't you know your grandfather's abilities? Xuan Ziwen, a mere figure, can't possibly cause any major trouble!"

With that, the majestic Hongchen Hall Master brought his beloved granddaughter into the extremely loyal soul mentor level qualification examination room.

As soon as Fu entered the scene, he felt a lot more relaxed.

It seemed that Xu Tianxi had just finished the assessment, and Lin Jiayi was pretending to check his second-level core magic circle - it was obviously a flawless work with no problems at first glance.

Xuan Ziwen sat calmly on the side, as if he was not worried at all about the impending storm.

Seeing the powerful Jing Hongchen and Meng Hongchen walk in, Xuan Ziwen jumped up and smiled at Jing Hongchen's majestic gaze:
"Master, what brings you here?"

Jing Hongchen was very annoyed with this guy who asked knowingly, and said unhappily:

"I really need to ask you, Teacher Xuan, about this. As the chief researcher at Mingde Hall, why are you here to invigilate the exam instead of focusing on your advanced research? Aren't you too free?"

"Research requires students' help, right? I remember that researchers like me have priority in selecting students, right? Master?"

Xuan Ziwen glanced to the side, just as he was about to catch sight of Xu Tianxi's figure, but unexpectedly found that Xu Tianxi had been protected by Meng Hongchen behind him. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he spread his hands to Jing Hongchen and said:
"Anyway, you understand what I mean. Everyone in this Sun-Moon Imperial Academy is your disciple, right? You've devoted so much energy and time to the empire. How could such a trivial matter as teaching students still bother you?"

Jing Hongchen immediately patted his chest, his eyes widening: "Who said I don't have time to teach students? I have plenty of energy!"

Xuan Ziwen rubbed his hands together and smiled, "I heard you've been working tirelessly these days on Unit-00's research. It's been incredibly tiring. You even managed to sneak out Xiaoxiao last night."

Jing Hongchen: "..."

How does this guy know everything?
Hearing this, Xu Tianxi, who was blocked behind Meng Hongchen, also looked strange. "Senior Meng, did Senior Xiao just come out of the Academic Affairs Office last night?"

"This, this is not important for now..." Meng Hongchen hesitated and gave a real wound to an old man through the air.

At the same time, Xuan Ziwen's eyes kept changing, and he painted a big picture for Jing Hongchen:
"Anyway, choosing a teacher is something you only consider in fifth grade, so there's no rush now. How about I take the blame and take Xiaomeng and the others to the Worship Hall more often? I'm more familiar with the place than you are, and the old teacher will definitely be happy."

"What do you mean?"

Upon hearing that Xuan Ziwen had brought out his backers, Jing Hongchen's eyes narrowed immediately. Could it be that the other party's unusual behavior this time was instructed by Master Kong?

"It's nothing special. I just mentioned Xiao Kong, Xiao Meng and the others when I was chatting with the old man at the Worship Hall a while ago. The old man became interested and asked me to teach them well. Don't worry, he didn't ask me to take him as a disciple."

Xuan Ziwen took out the imperial sword with a smile, declaring his powerful advantage.

As a top-notch eighth-level soul engineer, I certainly cannot compete with you, a ninth-level soul engineer, but I have a teacher. You wouldn't dare to get angry in front of him, right?

"Is this really what Mr. Kong meant?"

Jing Hongchen's heart sank as he calmly confirmed again.

Xuan Ziwen pretended to take out a soul guide communicator: "If you don't believe me, I'll contact the teacher right now."

"Stop, stop. Master Kong has been in seclusion for many years. How can we let such a small matter disturb his peace?"

After confirming that Xuan Ziwen was well prepared this time, Jing Hongchen waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that everything could be discussed.

As a figure in the Sun Moon Empire's inner circle of power, Jing Hongchen feared nothing except Kong Deming, whom he had to respectfully treat as a junior. If Kong Deming felt the urge to accept Xuan Ziwen as his own disciple wasn't enough, and wanted to take in a new one, Jing Hongchen... wouldn't be able to stop him.

"Ugh……"

Thinking that the Dabao duck he had just put into the pot was being targeted by someone, and that this person had a gang leader behind him whom he could not afford to offend, Jing Hongchen could not help but sigh in his heart.

No longer looking at the troubled Xuan Ziwen, Jing Hongchen walked straight towards Xu Tianxi, with a kind and gentle smile seamlessly switching to his face.

Like a magic trick, Jing Hongchen took out a purple gold card and put it into Xu Tianxi's palm. He introduced it with a smile:
"Student Tianxi, congratulations on passing the Level 2 Soul Instructor certification exam in just two and a half months. This is an encouragement from the dean on behalf of the academy.

With it, you can enter the academy's soul guide warehouse at any time, and without any other credentials, you can borrow regular soul guides of level six and below for research and study purposes."

"I know you have a soft spot for fixed-type soul guides. This card allows you to borrow up to twelve level six fixed-type soul guide shells at once for study purposes. This is the largest amount of student rewards currently available. Even I have to go through the process to use fixed-type soul guide shells above level seven."

Xuan Ziwen raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "Master, I remember that your grandson became the warehouse rat because of this thing, right?"

Jing Hongchen's face darkened and he rolled his eyes.

"What are you talking about? Xiao is just a little naughty by nature, but he has never damaged those high-level soul guides. He has also reflected on this in the Academic Affairs Office for a long time."

"Teacher Xuan, I remember you used to rely on Mr. Kong's protection to stir up trouble in the academy, right? I think you were even more powerful than Xiao? Should we settle the old scores and build a special reflection room for you in the Academic Affairs Office?
I'll cover all expenses. You can even copy your lab over here. No reimbursement required. I'll also provide you with some experimental equipment and rare metals. I'm sure Mr. Kong won't object."

"Haha, of course not. As a researcher, how could I dare ask you to spend money? Xiao Kong and Xiao Meng, if you have time, come and visit my laboratory."

When his dark history was revealed, Xuan Ziwen, feeling embarrassed, immediately lowered his head and shut up, then ran away at the speed of light.

Meng Hongchen, who had remained silent from beginning to end, raised her chin slightly, and a beautiful and charming smile appeared on her little face.

Little Xuan Ziwen, no problem.

After driving away the hateful Xuan Ziwen, Jing Hongchen nodded in satisfaction, revealing a victorious smile:

"Tianxi, you don't have to worry about anything now. Just practice hard. I believe you can achieve even better results in the future."

Xu Tianxi nodded seriously and said firmly, "Don't worry, Dean, the students will catch up with Senior Meng and Senior Xiao as quickly as possible."

Jing Hongchen was stunned for a moment, then instantly revealed an expectant smile: "Okay, I'll wait and see."

"Senior is also waiting to see. We must break the record for laughter and prevent him from getting too excited again."

Meng Hongchen is very optimistic about Xu Tianxi's determination to catch up with him, and is even more happy to see Xu Tianxi break Xiao Hongchen's record.

Xu Tianxi responded with an even weirder expression, secretly feeling sad for Xiao Hongchen.

It is true that one should not be too arrogant. If he is too arrogant, even his family members will want to hit him.

……

one year later.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy ushered in a new finals season, and the long-lost sound of the broadcast once again rang in the ears of thousands of students.

Unlike the last time the school rules were announced, this time the whole school was commended.

"Dear students, our school's outstanding fifth-year student, Kong Tianxi, has passed our school's Level 5 Soul Master qualification assessment this morning. He has been personally certified by our school's Dean, His Majesty Jing Hongchen, and several Level 8 Soul Masters, and has been awarded the status of Level 5 Soul Master!

As everyone knows, Kong Tianxi had previously taken one month, one and a half months, three months, and four months to pass the fourth-level soul mentor assessment. He lived up to everyone's expectations and created another unprecedented miracle in just five months..."

"Our beloved dean, His Majesty Jing Hongchen, expressed the hope that all students will take this as an encouragement, continue their efforts, and demonstrate their style and strength in the upcoming assessments..."
