Douluo Continent: I, the world's greatest immortal master, have taken Ning Rongrong as my disci

Chapter 167 Qian Renxue Reports for Studies

A few days later.

Soto City, in front of Paradise Academy.

She wore a gold and white skirt, her long golden hair was styled into a high ponytail that made her look quite energetic, and she had an elegant hairpin in her hair. There was a mark between her eyebrows that resembled an angel spreading its wings. Standing under the peach blossoms, she looked like an angel in a peach grove.

The woman in the golden dress bowed slightly towards the peach grove and uttered a few words: "Xue'er has come to Peach Blossom Academy to register for her studies."

Beside her stood a middle-aged man with short black hair, who looked very capable. Looking at the peach blossom grove before them, he said in a deep voice:

"Is this Peach Blossom Academy?"

"What a grand display! The Papal Palace branch is on the right, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is on the left. I'm afraid that apart from the capitals of the two great empires, no one else on this continent can have such a layout."

"Holy Maiden, with your status, why is there any need for such an announcement? Just go straight in."

The capable middle-aged man snorted, seemingly possessing an innate arrogance, and then began to walk deeper into the peach blossom grove.

Qian Renxue quickly spoke up to stop her:
"Seventh Master, please maintain respect for your teacher. Although Grandpa is worried about me coming to Peach Blossom Academy to study, he only sent you along to observe the academy's level, not to cause trouble."

"Alright, since you've said so, Holy Maiden, I'll give them some face. I hope this Dean of Peach Blossom Spring won't disappoint me, otherwise my Dragon-Piercing Staff won't hold back."

The capable middle-aged man withdrew; his identity was none other than the Seventh Elder of the Hall of Offerings—a Level 96 Super Douluo, the Demon-Slaying Douluo.

Three or four years ago, the Soul Master Competition concluded in Wuhun City, with Taoyuan Academy winning the championship.

After the competition, both the Holy Maiden and the Second Elder praised the Peach Blossom Academy highly.

Moreover, the saintess claimed that she had already become a disciple of the Peach Blossom Spring Master and was going to the Peach Blossom Spring Academy to study.

This move surprised and raised doubts among the worshippers in the temple. The chief worshipper also distrusted this teacher, Taoyuan, even though he had trained a champion team.

You must know, the saintess is no ordinary person; her best teacher is in the Temple of Angels!
It was only after the Holy Maiden and the Second Elder insisted that the High Priest relented slightly, but he still sent the Demon-Slaying Douluo to accompany him to check the level of the teachers at Peach Blossom Academy.

Standing at the entrance of Taoyuan Academy, Qian Renxue's eyes, gleaming with golden light, were filled with anticipation.

In the past two years, she has successfully resolved the issues between the Spirit Hall and the Heaven Dou Royal Family.

— He staged the death of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, escaped from the Tian Dou royal family, and returned to his identity as a free man, no longer bound by pretense.

I can finally report to Taoyuan Academy and wholeheartedly study with the teachers!
"Young lady, would you like to become an apprentice at Peach Blossom Academy?"

"Ah."

"How about buying two jars of peach blossom honey as a gift for becoming an apprentice? It's a finely brewed product made from peach blossom honey. Long-term consumption will make you bloom like a flower bud, pink and tender, sweet and lovely. I see you have an extraordinary demeanor and are a destined person. One jar will only cost you five gold soul coins. How about it?"

While waiting outside the academy, Flander the dog furtively carried two palm-sized jars of peach blossom honey and started trying to sell them.

Five gold soul coins were more than enough for Qian Renxue to afford, but having money didn't make her stupid. She glanced at Flander and asked doubtfully:
Are you from the academy?

Flanders chuckled and pointed to one side of Peach Blossom Academy, saying, "I used to live in there."

"what about now?"

"Now we are also loyal fans of Teacher Su, hehe."

Qian Renxue gave Flander a strange look: "Are you a liar? If this peach blossom honey really had the effects you described, it would be in high demand and short supply long ago, and there would be no need for door-to-door sales."

"Get lost! What kind of Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to come out and scam people? Are you looking for a beating?" As soon as the demon slayer heard the word "scammer," he immediately released a powerful aura.

This immediately terrified Flander so much that he wet himself.

Just then, Wang Sheng and Xiao Chenyu, the gatekeeper disciples of Peach Blossom Academy, finally emerged from the depths of the peach grove. Upon seeing the waiting person, they were initially taken aback by the woman's stunning beauty, but still bowed slightly.

"Is Senior Sister Qian Renxue?"

"You know me?"

Qian Renxue was about to take out the Peach Blossom Token to prove her identity when Wang Sheng unexpectedly revealed his name.

"Two years ago, the teacher instructed that if a golden-haired, golden-eyed, stunningly beautiful angel came to report, he could pass through, as he was a core disciple."

Wang Sheng replied, and then gave a gentlemanly bow as he led the way: "Since you are Senior Sister, please come in."

Upon hearing Wang Sheng's words, a sweet smile appeared on Qian Renxue's stunningly beautiful, cold face, and she couldn't suppress the smile.

It wasn't that Wang Sheng spoke particularly sweetly, but rather that the teacher actually told this 'junior' that she was an absolutely stunning angel!
What does this mean?
This shows that the teacher acknowledges Xue'er's beauty.
And he definitely likes Xue'er!
If a boy doesn't like a girl, would he praise her as an absolute angel?

"Your college looks quite large, but it seems there aren't many students compared to other colleges."

The Demon-Slaying Douluo sensed the situation within the academy and found that there were basically no students. Only when he entered the academy did he see a few energetic young girls.

Wang Sheng replied, "In terms of quantity, our Taoyuan Academy students are indeed far inferior to those of other academies, but the quality of our Taoyuan Academy students far surpasses that of other academies."

"Back when our Peach Blossom Academy participated in the Soul Master Competition, we only had seven or eight students in the entire academy, but that didn't stop us from winning the championship."

"Students who can be taught by others can be taught by us teachers, and students who cannot be taught by others can also be taught by us teachers."

"However, students who are accepted or valued by other colleges may not be accepted by our teachers."

Wang Sheng's tone was full of respect for his teacher and also in defense of the college's honor.

"Winning the Soul Master Competition is certainly an honor, but the Soul Master Competition is really just that, nothing more than a game for kids that has become popular in the last twenty years."

Unlike when our generation was young, the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire were irreconcilable enemies, constantly at war. Our generation of Soul Masters were all tempered on the battlefields of these two empires, eventually defeating them so decisively that they had no choice but to sue for peace. That's how the current Soul Master Competition came about—it's just a test of the strength of the younger generation from all three sides. Little one, you don't know this history, do you?"

"Demon-Slaying Douluo said calmly, his tone carrying the pride and arrogance of an elder reminiscing about past glories."

Wang Sheng glanced at the Demon-Slaying Douluo and felt that the middle-aged man seemed to harbor hostility towards Peach Blossom Academy.

"The teacher said that the cultivation of a Soul Master varies from person to person. A Soul Master who has been tempered on the battlefield is not necessarily more outstanding. Of course, a Soul Master who has participated in competitions is not necessarily more powerful."

"Little fellow, you're so glib." Demon-Slaying Douluo chuckled.

"Thanks for the compliment."

Wang Sheng was not angry at all; on the contrary, he smiled.

My senior classmates always say I'm slow-witted and a simpleton, so this is the first time someone has praised me for being glib and smooth-talking. It's definitely an affirmation.

"Senior Sister Qian, this is the inner courtyard, which is also the original site of the academy. The teacher is grading homework in the classroom, and there are two ladies waiting ahead of you. Please wait here for a moment and taste our Peach Blossom Tea from Peach Blossom Academy."

Wang Sheng led Qian Renxue and the Demon-Slaying Douluo to sit down under a peach tree and poured them a cup of tea.
