Douluo Continent: Narration Modified, Plot Begins to Collapse

Chapter 191 Sister, please don't do this, I'm scared

It's unclear whether the Heavenly Dou Royal Family was afraid of being beaten, but upon hearing that Tang Hao had smashed up the Heavenly Water Academy, they only sent a Soul Emperor to inquire about the situation. Moreover, this Soul Emperor arrived a day after the incident.

On this day, Tianshui Academy, through its own savings and the assistance of Xingyu Academy, weathered its most difficult moment.

However, Shui Bing'er sat alone on the steps, still looking somewhat worried.

Shui Yue'er sat down beside her and asked in a low voice:

"What's wrong? The hardest times are over, so why are you even more melancholy than yesterday?"

Shui Bing'er sighed and said:

"Moon, yesterday all we needed to do was rescue the people, but this morning I looked at the statistics and there are a lot of wounded. If we have to pay for their medical expenses from now on, the academy will probably go bankrupt in a few years."

Wang Tao had high hopes for her and groomed her as his successor, so she had some understanding of the college's situation.

Running a school requires strength, but having only muscles without brains is even worse. However, even if she racked her brains, she still didn't know where to get the money.

Ultimately, she's just a Soul Master now.

Shuiyue'er was silent for a moment, then whispered:

"Maybe...we can go find Bai Yu?"

Shui Bing'er raised her head blankly, and Shui Yue'er continued:

"Isn't Xingyu Academy known for its wealth and resources? Bai Yu is the dean; if we can persuade him, perhaps he can solve our immediate problem."

Shui Bing'er was silent for a moment, then sighed:

"Moon, why would he agree to help us?"

Shuiyue hesitated and said:

"He saved me before; he's a very good person."

"Just because he saved you, we owe him a favor, but now we're asking him for money? Is that fair? Besides, it's not a matter of whether he's a good person or not; even a good person wouldn't necessarily pay such a huge sum."

Shui Bing'er finished speaking without hesitation, and seeing Shui Yue'er's aggrieved expression, she patted her hair and said:

"I'll ask Teacher Li again; he should have a solution."

Teacher Li is the current acting dean.

Watching Shui Bing'er leave, Shui Yue'er gritted her teeth, feeling somewhat unwilling.

Although she was older than Shui Bing'er, in terms of both strength and interpersonal skills, she was like a younger sister to Bing'er. Although she was used to it, Bing'er was currently overwhelmed with problems for the academy, and she was helpless to do anything about it, which made her feel extremely powerless.

At this moment, Xuewu walked over and saw that Shuiyue'er looked worried, so she asked what had happened.

And once she found out, it meant that Shen Liuyu and Gu Qingbo also knew.

Besides Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, Shen Liuyu, Xue Wu, Gu Qingbo, Qiu Ruoshui, and Yu Hairou gathered together to discuss countermeasures, but after discussing for a long time, the final countermeasure was...

There is no solution.

"Alas, our academy is not like other academies that only admit nobles. Everyone here comes from an ordinary family and cannot bear such a heavy burden."

Gu Qingbo sighed, his face full of worry.

Other elemental academies only admit nobles, while Tianshui Academy is the only one that admits commoners. However, the downside is that if they encounter difficulties, other elemental academies can let their students help themselves, since everyone is a noble and every family has some strength.

But Tianshui Academy is different. Ordinary families have a low capacity for trial and error. If the academy ignores the wounded this time, their families may be ruined for life.

But if we try to control it, the college might be finished.

"The problem is how to make money!"

Xuewu rubbed her hair in frustration and pointed out a problem that everyone already knew.

"But where can we get the money?" Qiu Ruoshui glanced around, but no one spoke.

Yu Hairou whispered:

"How about we apply for funding from the royal family?"

"The Heaven Dou Royal Academy is still under reconstruction. How could the royal family possibly give us funding? Besides, our academy doesn't have many nobles, so it's impossible for us to get much funding."

Shen Liuyu shook her head and rejected the suggestion; it was something even a child could figure out.

"We should at least give it a try, right?"

"If you ask me, Xingyu Academy is very rich. Why don't we find a way to get them to sponsor us?"

"That's even more outrageous! Why would they sponsor us? Because we can't beat them in team battles?"

The group fell silent again.

At this time, the acting dean sent someone to find them and asked them to participate in the aftermath work, so the group got busy.

But in the silence, each of them harbored their own thoughts.

That night.

After a busy day, Bai Yu took a shower and was pondering whether to choose a concubine from Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Liu Erlong, or to try and win over Meng Yiran, when there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Is she one of Rongrong and the others? They're being so proactive. If so, I'll hold off on visiting Meng Yiran for now. After all, her grandma lives next door, and it feels a bit awkward."

Bai Yu opened the door and froze on the spot.

Snow Dance?

Tall, spirited, and with flowing silver hair, Xue Wu walked in without a word, immediately closing the door behind her. She said to Bai Yu:

"I have something to discuss with you."

Bai Yu tilted his head, watching her walk into her room by herself, pour herself a glass of water, and sit down at the table, looking somewhat bewildered.

"Is this my room?"

Xue Wu blushed almost imperceptibly, took a sip of water, and said:

"Don't worry about the details, come, please sit down."

Bai Yu sat down opposite her, wanting to see what she was up to.

As soon as Bai Yu sat down, Xue Wu got straight to the point:

We need money.

"Treat the wounded?"

Xue Wu was stunned. She hadn't expected Bai Yu to see through her purpose for wanting money so quickly, so she nodded.

However, Bai Yu said:

"You want to support those wounded soldiers for the rest of their lives? That's a huge expense. Even if Tianshui Academy hadn't been destroyed, let alone now that it's been destroyed, it would probably be difficult to afford."

"So you mean you're unwilling to pay?"

Xue Wu narrowed her eyes and stared at him. Her appearance was both pretty and handsome, reminding Bai Yu of his tomboy mentor from his previous life, Shiina.

"Ahem. Hmm? What are you doing?"

Bai Yu was stunned. He was about to say that Tianshui Academy was preparing to merge into Xingyu Academy, and that their affairs were Xingyu Academy's affairs. However, before he could say anything, Xue Wu suddenly stood up and began to unbutton her shirt.

"I knew you weren't that kind, but that's okay, I have my own ways of persuading you."

Xue Wu's pretty face flushed red. She tried to keep her tone calm, but her voice still trembled slightly.

Bai Yu blinked, and just as Xue Wu was about to pull open her shirt, there was another knock on the door.

Xue Wu was startled and, before Bai Yu could speak, she crawled under the bed.

Bai Yu: "."

She also made a shushing gesture.

With things having come to this, Bai Yu had no choice but to open the door, where stood the mature and sophisticated Gu Qingbo.

Like Xue Wu, Gu Qingbo also walked in directly, closed the door, and got straight to the point:

"Bai Yu, I have something I want to discuss with you."

"You want money?"

"How did you know? Now that you know, things are easier to discuss."

Give me a reason?

Gu Qingbo remained silent for a moment, then did the same action as Xue Wu had just performed.

"I will convince you in my own way."

Bai Yu: "."

No, you two planned this out?

Are you going to jump on me here?

Sister, please don't do this, I'm scared!
