Douluo Continent: From Seven Treasure Glazed Tile to Crescent Moon's Solemnity

Chapter 282 The Gap Between Geniuses

The tall, handsome man leading the Shenfeng Academy team is none other than Feng Xiaotian, the team's captain.

He is one of only four genius soul masters in the original work who are confirmed to have innate full soul power, or rather, five.

Because Qian Renxue possesses innate super soul power and a god-level martial soul, she was born with a soul power level of 20.

However, since Qian Renxue was chosen by the Angel God through connections, this might be a little exaggerated.

The other three are Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Oscar.

In fact, Xiao Wu is a 100,000-year-old soul beast who has transformed into a human, and Tang San's innate full soul power also seems to have been cultivated through the later Xuan Tian Gong.

Therefore, in terms of innate full soul power, only Feng Xiaotian and Oscar are truly the only two.

This is enough to prove how talented Feng Xiaotian is. After all, he is a rare case of innate full soul power in Douluo Continent over the years, and he is different from Oscar.

He is a Soul Master.

Support-type Soul Masters, especially food-type Soul Masters, have a much slower cultivation speed than Battle-type Soul Masters, given the same innate Soul Power.

So in other words, Feng Xiaotian's innate talent is even better than Oscar's.

He is undoubtedly the number one genius in this year's Advanced Soul Master Competition.

However, in the original story, he only had level 44 soul power, far inferior to the three members of the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall, but in terms of age, he was actually similar to Xie Yue and Yan.

He was even a little older than Hu Liena.

Therefore, although it is said that there are not many cultivation resources in Douluo Continent at present, it is possible to quickly widen the gap.

However, it is still evident that Soul Masters from powerful families have an advantage over those from ordinary or even commoner backgrounds.

Having innate full soul power... isn't entirely valued in Douluo Continent. It's not like other worlds' divine bodies or holy bodies, which are sought after by various powerful forces.

Otherwise, Feng Xiaotian would probably have been dug up by the Spirit Hall by now, along with the bricks beneath his feet.

Tang San and Xiao Wu, both born with full soul power, seemed to be completely ignored at the Notting City Soul Master Academy.

After all, if innate full soul power were really that sought after, it would be like two top scorers in the college entrance examination not going to Dingdua or Duading, but going to a junior college instead.

Who wouldn't find this strange? Even the principals of Dingdua and Duading must have been cursing them out overnight, telling them they should have come to poach talent.

Therefore, compared to innate full soul power, Douluo Continent actually values ​​the speed of subsequent cultivation improvement more.

It's like this: one is an innate IQ test, and the other is the level of learning acquired later in life.

Having full innate soul power is equivalent to graduating from sixth grade with a perfect score at the age of six.

Is that amazing?

Great.

But that doesn't mean they'll excel in junior high and high school.

So this makes sense. While it's rare to have innate full soul power, with only a handful appearing every fifty years, it only proves that he's relatively intelligent.

Those like the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall, who reached the Soul King realm before the age of twenty-five, are not actually considered exceptionally powerful.

This only proves that their current academic level is among the best of their peers, but it has already proven that they have a high talent for cultivation.

Someone like Feng Xiaotian, who possessed innate full soul power, only had level 44 soul power when he was around twenty years old. Although that doesn't exactly make him a prodigy who failed to live up to his potential, he still achieved great things.

But it certainly didn't perform as well as expected.

Although Feng Xiaotian is not as good as the Golden Generation or the "Generation of Heaven".

However, he was considered a leading figure in the Four Elements Academy, and even if you include the Elephant Armor Academy, which no longer associated with them.

Feng Xiaotian and the students of Shenfeng Academy, along with the accompanying teachers from Shenfeng Academy, arrived in Tianshui City.

Just then, the Blazing Fire Academy also entered.

"Fire Dance Sister!" Feng Xiaotian's eyes lit up the moment he saw Fire Dance, and he shouted to her with a confident smile.

Huo Wu saw Feng Xiaotian, but her eyes showed a hint of helplessness.

"You're here too." At this moment, Huo Lingfei, the teacher in charge of the Blazing Fire Academy, looked at Gerald, the teacher in charge of the Divine Wind Academy, and greeted him with a smile.

"Isn't this the academic discussion invitation issued by Tianshui Academy? I think everyone except those guys from Elephant Armor Academy is here," Gerald said with a smile.

Actually, they used to be competitors, and even fought each other over it.

However, they are all getting old now, and the relationships between the members of the Four Elements Academy are actually quite good.

Therefore, they have now become "ordinary" friends with a good relationship.

The reason it's considered average is mainly because everyone is too far apart.

Blazing Fire Academy is located in Blazing Fire City, which is in the southeastern part of the Heaven Dou Empire, while Divine Wind Academy is located in Divine Wind City, which is in the eastern inland part of the empire.

That is indeed quite far apart.

As for Tianshui City, it is located in the northern border of the empire, while Thunder Academy is located in the central part of the empire.

Elephant Armor Academy was originally located in the western border of the empire, but in recent years it has left the Heaven Dou Empire and moved to the Kingdom border, which is close to the Spirit Hall.

Although they didn't move directly to Wuhun City, their intentions were as clear as day.

Sometimes, you don't need to dig out your heart, liver, lungs, and lungs when you're painting.

In the original storyline, Huyan Zhen even dared to walk and chat happily with Salas in front of Emperor Xueye.

Indeed, the Elephant Armor Sect didn't even bother with pretense; they directly made their stance clear: they had joined the Spirit Hall.

The Four Elements Academy did accept invitations from the Spirit Hall and join the Spirit Hall.

But... at least they still showed some gratitude.

In the original storyline, he rejected the Spirit Hall, saying that as an academy, he did not want to be manipulated by others, and then turned around and clearly joined the Heaven Dou Empire's camp.

It is clear that their real thought is that, as a member of the Heaven Dou Empire, they do not want to be driven by the Spirit Hall.

This is much better than Flanders' situation; at least they know where they come from.

The Four Elements Academy directly rejected the invitation extended by the Spirit Hall, representing the Elephant Armor Sect, and even distanced itself from the Elephant Armor Academy.

"Those guys from Elephant Armor Academy have sided with the Spirit Hall..." Huo Lingfei shook his head and said, "Forget it, we're on different paths, we can't work together."

"By the way, haven't the people from Thunder Academy arrived yet?" Gerald had just asked.

Then a domineering and unrestrained voice suddenly came from behind, "Fire Qilin, Featherless Bird, you've arrived so quickly!"

"Lei Qian!" Huo Lingfei turned around and said with a headache, "Why is it you here?"

Looking back, a group of Soul Masters dressed in light blue uniforms suddenly appeared.

The leader was a middle-aged, muscular man wearing a light blue fitted outfit, revealing a pair of particularly well-developed triceps.

Behind him were seven other young Soul Masters.

If Ning Feiliu were here, she would recognize one of the familiar faces.

That's right... it's Yu Tianxin, one of the Blue Dragon Twins, who fought side by side with Ning Feiliu in the Heaven Dou Arena for a period of time and was also defeated by Ning Feiliu.

In the original storyline, he did not join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but instead replaced the Thunder Academy, which was sponsored by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect.

Upon hearing Huo Lingfei's words, the burly man at the head of the group laughed heartily and said without any hesitation, "What? You don't like me?"

"Yes, I don't just dislike you, I absolutely hate you, you vulgar guy!" Gerald couldn't help but complain from the side.

"Too bad, you can't beat me." Lei Qian grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth, and said without any restraint.

In terms of strength, Thunder Academy is undoubtedly the strongest among the Five Elements Academy, after all, they are backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, one of the three upper sects.

Although the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect doesn't care about Thunder Academy as much as the Elephant Armor Sect does about Elephant Armor Academy.

After all, in order to run the Elephant Armor Clan, they even sent their young clan leader, Huyan Li, to the Elephant Armor Academy for training.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect only sent Yu Tianxin to Thunder Academy.

However, the funding and attention that Thunder Academy receives should not be underestimated.

It's at least stronger than Tianshui Academy, Shenfeng Academy, and Chihuo Academy, which don't have any major sects as their backing.

Thunder Academy has always been the strongest among the five elemental academies.

However, it wasn't until this year that Feng Xiaotian emerged from Shenfeng Academy, which temporarily became the leader among the Five Elements Academy.

However, in Lei Qian's generation, Gerald and Huo Lingfei were indeed no match for him.

This is also why he acted so recklessly.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you," Gerald said irritably. "Let's eat something first, then go visit Tianshui Academy."

When Tianshui Academy was mentioned, a glint flashed in Lei Qian's eyes. He then entered the restaurant with a smile and, together with Gerald and Huo Lingfei, settled the students from the three elemental academies and ordered food.

He added with a chuckle, "As you've all heard, Tianshui Academy has been quite remarkable these past few years!"

"Yeah, isn't that why they called us here?" Gerald said casually.

"Then your Feng Xiaotian is in for a rough time this time," Lei Qian said with a chuckle.

As the leading figure and strongest individual of the Five Elements Academy, Feng Xiaotian's academic invitation from Tianshui Academy is undoubtedly aimed at him.

So Lei Qian was naturally somewhat gloating.

After all... Feng Xiaotian and Shenfeng Academy did the same thing back then.

They will successfully challenge the strongest and leading figures of this generation at Thunder Academy, and then they will take their place.

"Xiaotian isn't so easily defeated," Gerald said calmly.

"Your Xiaotian has broken through?" Huo Lingfei asked curiously.

"I broke through to the Soul Master level three months ago and just recently obtained my fourth Soul Ring," Gerald said with some pride.

"But they're still far behind those two little girls, aren't they? I heard that the girl from Tianshui Academy is now at level 47 in soul power?" Lei Qian said with emotion. "They're really getting more and more amazing. These genius soul masters... Back in our day, it was already quite impressive if we could break through to the Soul Master level before the age of 25."

"Children nowadays receive better treatment when they cultivate. They receive imperial subsidies, have no worries about food and drink, are specially trained by teachers, and have various pills and potions to assist their cultivation," Huo Lingfei said with a slight smile.

"I heard that there are three genius Soul Masters in Heaven Dou City who broke through to the Soul King realm at around twenty years old. That's... I can't even imagine it," Gerald said with some emotion.

"Is that true?" Huo Lingfei asked curiously. "I thought it was just those guys from the capital talking big again."

As the capital of the Heavenly Dou Empire, Heavenly Dou City has always been a source of pride and boasting.

Some merchants who have been to Tiandou City will deliberately exaggerate certain aspects of the city in order to show their difference.

Simply put, it's bragging.

However, Lei Qian shook his head and said, "That's not just flattery... Young Master Tianxin grew up in Tiandou City. Let me tell you, those three genius soul masters known as the Generation of Heaven are real."

"Actually... our sect's young patriarch, Young Master Yu Tianheng, was originally a member of the Heavenly Generation, but I have to say that compared to those three monsters, he is still somewhat inferior." He said with emotion, "All three broke through to the Soul King realm before the age of twenty. The most powerful one, Ning Feiliu, who came from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, broke through to the Soul King realm at the age of fifteen."

"Fifteen years old... Soul King." Gerald and Huo Lingfei immediately felt ashamed of themselves and had the urge to die right there on the table.

They broke through to the Soul King realm when they were already thirty years old.

As a result, others broke through to the Soul King realm at the age of fifteen, which is only half the age they needed to break through to the Soul King realm.

This really makes one feel like they've just come into this world to make up the numbers.

"But it's no wonder..." Lei Qian sighed again and said, "He comes from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and is a disciple of the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo. With the supply of resources such as the Profound Water Pill and soul power recovery potions, of course he can achieve the Soul King realm at the age of fifteen."

He was being a bit simplistic. Ning Feiliu... didn't just rely on Xuan Shui Pills and soul power recovery potions to cultivate so quickly.

He also used many cheat codes.

However... these were not given to him because of Ning Feiliu's background or his master.

Aside from her background, everything else about Ning Feiliu was a reward for completing missions.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Dugu Bo didn't give him any Xuan Shui Pills or cultivation potions at first.

Lei Qian's words sounded somewhat sarcastic.

But there's nothing he can do; he simply doesn't have Ning Feiliu's special abilities.

However, Gerald and Huo Lingfei were a little envious and jealous. They chatted for a few more minutes and finished their meal.

then……

"Children, if you've eaten your fill, we'll be on our way." Lei Qian, Gerald, and Huo Lingfei stood up and said to the students from the three elemental academies behind them.

"Yes, we're full." Feng Xiaotian and the others had no problems and stood up immediately.

Then they paid their bill and left.

But just then, outside Tianshui City...

A group of four appeared, and what was enviable was that the group consisted of three women and one man, with the young man still leading the group.

Moreover, all three girls have different appearances, but they can all be considered to be exceptionally beautiful.

"Is this Tianshui City?" A stunningly beautiful girl with long, dark green hair looked at the city walls of Tianshui City in the distance and asked with some excitement and curiosity.

Same—watching the game, will revise later.
