Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 466 Orange: Sacrifice Yourself, My Coco! (4K, just one more step to becoming a masterpiece)
Chen Ping's vacation at Haotian Sect lasted about ten days before he said goodbye to Wang Dong and Da Ming and Er Ming.

Previously, he had accompanied Ning Tian and Wu Feng on a tour of Mingdu, then led the two to obtain the soul spirit of the Silver Wolf King in the Jingyang Mountains, and casually stole a high-altitude detection soul tool. Afterwards, he visited the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, which had already taken up a lot of time.

Therefore, it's quite a long time for him to stay at the Haotian Sect for ten days.

Knowing that the Sun Moon Empire would be starting school in just over a week, and Shrek Academy had less than a week left before the start of school, Chen Ping rushed back to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Chen Ping spent ten days of his thirty-day holiday in seclusion. Even though Ning Tian and Wu Feng knew that Chen Ping was really busy with something, they still couldn't help but nag him for two days.

After all, they didn't have much vacation time left, and they would have to wait another year to see Chen Ping again after the vacation ended.

Over the past few days, the two of them took Chen Ping on a tour of all the places in the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. At the same time, Chen Ping also formally met several beautiful girls, including Chen Xiaoyu and Ye Xin'er, as well as Gu Lipa, Ning Dali, and others.

Having figured out that everything that had happened before was a misunderstanding, Ning Dali and the others honestly apologized to Chen Ping. Ning Dali, in particular, the guy who uses the Wind and Thunder Hammer and can transform it into the Wind and Thunder Axe, has become Chen Ping's number one follower in the past few days.

As for the reason, Ning Dali had already witnessed Ning Tian's fifth spirit ring, the Silver Moon Wolf King spirit, in the past few days.

Not only is the Silver Moon Wolf King incredibly powerful, but it's also good-looking, can benefit from the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and can even fight and run alongside its master.

With all these advantages combined, Ning Dali immediately recognized Chen Ping as his godfather in his heart, hoping that Chen Ping could obtain a soul for him after his seclusion ended.

As for why Ning Dali, although he was a support-type Soul Master before, had a completely different fighting style from Ning Tian, ​​he was the type who would buff himself up and fight the enemy to the end with the Wind and Thunder Axe?
Because of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's sect rules, Ning Dali was effectively blocked, much like the Oscars had been frozen for ten thousand years.

He is a support-type Soul Master, but the person he likes is not a female offensive Soul Master like Wu Feng, but Ye Xin'er, who is also a support-type Soul Master and has the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul.

Although Ning Dali has made many efforts over the years to prove to the sect that even though he is a support-type Soul Master, he is capable of protecting himself and Ye Xin'er.

However, it was obvious that neither Ning Junping nor the nearly two-hundred-year-old Citang Douluo agreed to Ning Dali's request, considering that opening this door might cause problems with the stability of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's inheritance. As a result, Ye Xin'er, despite having the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, still became the oldest golden flower in the entire sect.

After Ning Dali explained the whole story clearly, Chen Ping let out a long "Oh~~~", and then stared at Ning Dali with great interest.

"You mean, because of a misunderstanding, you dragged your friend to fight me, only to find out it was a misunderstanding after the fight, and now you want me to help you get a spirit to help you two get together?"

Chen Ping spoke these words in a rather calm tone, but they still made Ning Dali blush.

If he had been even slightly calmer beforehand, he wouldn't have made such a huge blunder. If he had asked Chen Ping for help now, things would have been much more likely to go well.

Unfortunately, he lacked the patience, which made what should have been a straightforward matter seem hopeless.

At this moment, Ning Dali stood beside Chen Ping, his body slightly bent, with a simple and somewhat embarrassed smile on his face, but he never left Chen Ping's side.

Chen Ping knew perfectly well what tactics Ning Dali was using at this moment.
Back then, in order to trick students' parents into buying more of his classes, he used the same shameless trick to earn his first pot of gold. Seeing Ning Dali use the same tactic exactly, he even felt a little familiar with it.

Of course, this doesn't mean Chen Ping is willing to agree to Ning Dali's request so easily. After all, Soul Spirits don't currently have the potential for mass production, so Chen Ping isn't planning to agree so soon.

However, Chen Ping did not completely abandon Ning Dali's hope, but said that they would talk about it when he could reach level 60.

The reason is simple: Chen Ping remembered that it seemed possible to participate in the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament as a sect.

If the academy has any other ideas and plans to do something like the original story, such as having an academy team and a Tang Sect team, Chen Ping thinks it would be better to take the opportunity to form a Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School team.

It's always better to prepare for both possibilities than to wait until the time comes, isn't it?
When Chen Ping returned to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Lin Jiayi, the Dean of Students who had been somewhat impatient due to Chen Ping's long absence, immediately relaxed and reported to Jing Hongchen.

Although the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy wouldn't care what happened to Shrek Academy's exchange students during their holidays, Chen Ping was different.

Lin Jiayi had already learned through Jing Hongchen's channels where Chen Ping had last appeared—the Jingyang Mountains!

For Ju Zi, it wasn't a big deal to use her position as battalion commander to slightly mobilize her private army and retaliate against Chen Ping, the bastard who had almost made her a punching bag for Jing Hongchen.

Delegating tasks to his soldiers would be a sensitive matter for other junior officers, but for Ju Zi, who had Prince Xu Tianran as her guarantor, it was no big deal at all.

But if this isn't a big deal for Ju Zi, why would Lin Jiayi know that Chen Ping appeared in the Jingyang Mountains and then disappeared without a trace?
Naturally, it was because Chen Ping had taken the high-altitude detection soul tool that Ju Zi was responsible for testing at her camp before he left.

This matter cannot be easily suppressed like mobilizing a private army.

On Earth, this would have been a test of the most advanced weaponry, which was still in the classified stage. However, the governor neglected his duties and mobilized his private army, resulting in the invaluable advanced equipment inexplicably ending up in the hands of an enemy country.

Although there is currently no evidence to suggest that Chen Ping took the Soul-Guided High-Altitude Detector, there is also no evidence to suggest that the Soul-Guided High-Altitude Detector has appeared in the territory of enemy countries such as Tianhun and Xingdou.

Despite the huge mess, Ju Zi still suffered a severe blow, even with the prince vouching for him. He was demoted three ranks, from battalion commander to deputy company commander.

This result may seem tragic, but it is actually the result of Xu Tianran's desperate efforts to protect the oranges at all costs.

Under normal circumstances, if a different battalion commander lost the high-altitude detection soul guide, he would at least be demoted to the lowest level and face life imprisonment, not just be demoted three ranks like Orange.
Of course, someone has to take responsibility for this matter. Since the main blame doesn't lie with Orange, someone has to be Orange's scapegoat.

Including Ju Zi's best friend Ke Ke, almost all the soldiers who were in charge of the experiments in the camp that day were sent to prison for life by Ju Zi on the grounds that they disobeyed orders and conducted soul guide device tests without authorization.

I'm sorry, Coco. Girls help girls. For my revenge dream, please take one last hit for me. I will remember you forever!

Well, that explains why even a college director like Lin Jiayi knew Chen Ping had been active in the Jingyang Mountains. This guy is really a troublemaker; he almost ruined the Crown Prince's prized protégé, whom he had painstakingly cultivated at any cost!
Unlike Lin Jiayi, who was merely curious about where Chen Ping had been during this time and why Ju Zi had reported to her superiors and mobilized the entire Soul Master Corps but still couldn't find Chen Ping's whereabouts, Jing Hongchen was clearly much more pragmatic.

It's not that he's not curious, it's just that he doesn't have the time to be curious.

Throughout the summer vacation, he and several other level-nine soul masters from Mingde Hall bled several times, but they still couldn't figure out how Chen Ping acquired his Thousand Forging Technique.

I want to ask Ji Juechen, the eyewitness who witnessed Chen Ping using special methods to purify rare metals, again. Ji Juechen disappeared even more completely than Chen Ping.

Chen Ping at least showed up once in the Jingyang Mountains this month, but there's absolutely no news about Ji Juechen. Even Jing Ziyan can't find him!
In addition, the current political situation in the court is volatile and unpredictable, and the old emperor's health is deteriorating. Who knows when he will pass away? How can Jing Hongchen possibly manage all this?

At this time, it was difficult to remain untainted in the imperial court.

Originally, Jing Hongchen could have chosen not to take sides.

However, with the theft of the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, the first experimental subject, and the sixteen level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells, he could only move closer to the identity of the princeling party.

The competition for the throne has reached a critical juncture.

Jing Hongchen's actions were enough to catalyze the intensification of the struggle for the throne, causing this war, which only existed at the top, to erupt in its most intense form.

Although Crown Prince Xu Tianran has a significant advantage due to the addition of Jing Hongchen, his weaknesses are equally obvious.

After all, being disabled is a disgrace to the nation!

His two opponents seized on this point and continued to attack him.

To be honest, if Xu Tianran only lacked hands and legs, it wouldn't be a big deal for him.

As the crown prince, he wielded real military power. If he had only suffered minor injuries to his limbs, his brothers would have been no match for Xu Tianran.

The problem is that Xu Tianran also has an injury on his fifth limb, which makes it really inappropriate.

Even though Xu Tianran never admitted to this, the problem is that when his brothers spread rumors, they didn't care whether Xu Tianran was able to have sex or not, and directly fabricated stories about a eunuch emperor.

This topic is far too weighty; it's like striking a snake at its vital point.

Although Xu Tianran has maintained a public persona for the past two decades that portrays him as someone who loves the people like his own children and is diligent in serving the people.

It could even be said that Xu Tianran completely copied any of the pure and innocent qualities of Tang San Shao from Douluo Continent.

However, the emperor was infertile, and this statement sealed Xu Tianran's fate.

Even ordinary people, after hearing this, completely forgot Xu Tianran's qualities of loving the people like his own children and treating scholars with respect.

If Xu Tianran were truly only hampered by a leg injury, the matter would be easily resolved; producing a healthy grandson would be far more effective than anything else. But Xu Tianran is unable to conceive.
The very act of having a "eunuch emperor" in mind is what caused Xu Tianran's throne to remain unstable, even with the help of a heavyweight guest like Jing Hongchen.

He had countless political enemies in the imperial court, and found many brilliant minds in the experimental institute.

Everything happened in a way that was even more exhausting than Jing Hongchen had anticipated.

He had to conduct research, guard against slander from political enemies, and worry about whether anyone would harm Crown Prince Xu Tianran.

It's easy to imagine how much psychological pressure he was under every day.

He has lost more hair in the past six months than he has in the previous decades, and even the ends of his hair have turned a little white.

Therefore, Jing Hongchen's only thought for these exchange students from Shrek Academy is that they complete their exchange program safely and without causing any trouble.

He no longer wanted to resort to any tricks at this time, such as restricting He Caitou's research; he was too busy.

Everything else should wait until Xu Tianran's ascension to the throne is settled; that is the most important thing.

Let the Shrek students learn something; that's no longer his concern.

As long as Xu Tianran becomes emperor, his mistakes in the previous attack on the Body Sect can be wiped clean, he will still be the head of the Mingde Hall, and he can regain the dukedom that was stripped of him by the old emperor.

As for the sixteen level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells, at worst he can make a few before he gets old. After he passes away, the cycle can be repeated after Xiao Hongchen becomes a level-nine soul master. After several generations, this hole can eventually be filled.

But what if the other two heirs became emperors of the Sun and Moon Empire?
Jing Hongchen dared not think about his fate, nor did he want to.

If Xu Tianran gets promoted, at least he will still have a future and a chance to pay back the debt to the empire. But if Xu Tianran doesn't get promoted, he might not even have the chance to pay back the debt.

Well, perhaps if he could master the method of making thousand-refined metal, he would still have that opportunity.

However, after eyewitness Ji Juechen was tricked away by Chen Ping, it became only theoretically possible that Jing Hongchen could research the production method of thousand-forged metal in just a few years.
