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

Chapter 296 Conflict

However, two days passed, and Tang San still couldn't accurately analyze any of the drug's ingredients.

He could only roughly guess one of the herbs, and that was just a guess; as for whether it was actually it...

Even someone as confident as him wasn't entirely sure.

This is really because... there is no confidence.

This was the first time Tang San had ever felt that the level of pharmacology in Douluo Continent was so high.

It was no longer comparable to the pharmacology he was familiar with, which came from the unique skills of the Tang Clan.

It can be described as a completely new kind of pharmacological knowledge, like a game-changer.

Tang San's thinking was certainly correct. The pharmacological knowledge from the Zaun alchemy technology in the lower district of the City of Progress on the Valoran continent was indeed a significant advantage in the Douluo Continent.

Moreover, while Tang San's pharmacology skills are indeed very high, they are also quite rigid.

Fortunately, much of the herbal and pharmacological knowledge in Douluo Continent is highly compatible with his knowledge from his previous life.

But what if they don't match?

Tang San was at a loss, just like how he never used soul beasts in medicine in the original work, simply because he was unfamiliar with soul beasts.

He didn't intend to use soul beasts directly as medicinal ingredients, but rather to experiment and find out which parts of the soul beasts could be used in medicine.

This is the shortcoming of pure empiricism.

Tang San was dumbfounded when his past experience was no longer applicable.

Ning Feilu's alchemical knowledge came from the continent of Valoran, but the ingredients and sources of the drugs within it were fundamentally inconsistent with the pharmacological system of the Douluo Continent.

However, modern medicine is not simply based on empiricism; rather, it is a complete pharmacological system built upon modern scientific perspectives.

The pharmacology system of Douluo Continent is completely different from that of Valoran Continent. Ning Feiliu was able to explore the alchemical pharmacology system of Douluo Continent through a large number of alchemical experiments.

In that case, let alone Tang San, a traditional medical empiricist.

Even a master alchemist like Singed would need to undergo systematic training to reverse engineer the ingredients of these alchemical potions.

Tang San's efforts were destined to be in vain; his confidence was severely damaged.

After Tang San's efforts were in vain for two days, Yu Xiaogang finally managed to find out the location of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy through connections.

"Alright, we've found the location of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy." Flander immediately made the decision, smiling as he said, "Then let's set off! Heaven Dou Royal Academy!"

He had been quite restless lately, because as the capital city, the cost of living in Tiandou City was really high.

After all, living in the capital city is no joke.

Flanders, that pretentious miser, was truly heartbroken.

"Alright, let's set off together." Dai Mubai wasn't in a gloomy state the whole time. As the senior brother and "boss" of Shrek Academy, he still showed the attitude he should.

The group then set off directly for the Heaven Dou Royal Academy outside Heaven Dou City.

They checked out of the hotel and then went to the gate of Tiandou City to queue up to leave the city.

There were many people queuing to leave the city, and they did not notice a group of people wearing light yellow school uniforms.

"What a pity..." Ma Hongjun said with some regret, "I was just thinking of going to vent my frustration."

This is his old problem; he's a lecherous man even at a young age. However, the red-light district in Tiandou City is a high-end area, which makes him hesitate.

After all, he is still a Great Soul Master, and his monthly allowance is only ten gold soul coins. How could he afford to do something like this in Heaven Dou City?

"It's alright. I heard that the treatment at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy is excellent, and there are many beautiful girls from noble families..." Dai Mubai said with a wicked smile to Ma Hongjun.

This can be considered a complete letting go of his inhibitions. After all, he and Zhu Zhuqing have broken up, so he doesn't mind continuing to let loose, even deliberately saying these things in front of Zhu Zhuqing to annoy her, and ideally, to make her regret it.

However, Zhu Zhuqing now only feels disgusted by Dai Mubai. No woman would regret being with a man who can't control his lower body and has no skills.

Just like when a man feels sorry for a prostitute because he thinks she has willingly fallen into depravity and flaunts her relationships with many people, does he feel regret?

It would just be a curse word, followed by disdain.

They're afraid they'll get sick if they touch a woman like that.

In Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, Dai Mubai was the same.

Not to mention Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu and Tang San both found these two guys disgusting.

However, at that moment...

"Wait, you just said... Heaven Dou Royal Academy?" A group of people in pale yellow school uniforms stood to the side, looking at the Shrek Academy students with unfriendly expressions.

Although Flanders and the others didn't recognize them, they could tell from their pale yellow school uniforms and the words they spoke that these students belonged to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

The leader, whom they did not know, was none other than Xue Beng, the fourth prince of the Tiandou Empire.

Flander then said casually, "We're from Shrek Academy... We've come here for an exchange at the invitation of your Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Do you know the way? Then lead the way for us."

Putting everything else aside, they were preparing to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. However, Flander showed no politeness whatsoever to these students of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Whether in the original work or now, he acted like a big shot, without the slightest bit of courtesy.

The original work described it as arrogant and awe-inspiring, but that's not arrogance, it's rudeness!

It's no wonder that avalanches didn't like them later on.

Avalanche sized up Flander a few times, then looked at the others' attire, and recalled what Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun had said earlier. A hint of disdain and disgust appeared on his face. "You bumpkins, you dare to come to our academy for exchange? I bet you're beggars from somewhere! Get lost! Otherwise, we'll have to use force!"

He was really ungrateful; his own strength wasn't much, yet he still dared to speak rudely to Flander.

then……

With his temper becoming even more violent and sinister, Dai Mubai flashed forward and stood in front of Flander, his chilling aura instantly bursting forth.

Although his right leg was lame, the explosive speed of his left leg alone was still too much for ordinary Tianwei-level members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, such as Xue Beng, to react to.

Bang! Dai Mubai kicked Xue Beng away, and then immediately activated his martial soul.

The sudden turn of events threw the noble students of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy into a panic. They never expected that the other party would actually make a move.

Apart from a few slightly more intelligent individuals who quickly activated their martial souls, most people retreated rapidly, fearing they would be caught in the crossfire.

Even those students who had awakened their martial souls dared not advance and retreated quickly upon seeing the three glittering soul rings on Dai Mubai's body.

In their minds, there was no concept of the weak defeating the strong; the difference in spirit rings was absolute, and among this group, there wasn't even a single person who could reach level 30.

Dai Mubai then unleashed his tiger palm strike, sending several people who were slower to retreat flying.

"Alright, Mu Bai." Flander called out to Dai Mu Bai, "If this continues, it won't just be a beating; it could result in serious injury."

He still has some sense of propriety.

Dai Mubai then stopped, his evil eyes flashing with wicked light, and said with a cold, sinister laugh, "Let's see who's really getting lost."

"You, you dare to cause trouble in my Heavenly Dou City! This is a provocation against the Empire... You wait, you wait..." Xue Beng said in a mixture of fear and malice.

"The hat is well-placed, but it's just rubbish... Call your academy's teachers out to demand justice." Flander was a sensible man; he knew that things had come to this point, and no matter what, he would definitely support Dai Mubai.

That's not his problem.

"Fine! Fine!" Avalanche snorted coldly, then stood up and said, "You'll see what happens at the academy!"

He immediately called out to the others, "Let's go!"

"Yes..." The others didn't seem dissatisfied; in fact, they were quite excited.

Because...Avalanche is the fourth prince of the empire. It would be better to beat them than to beat Avalanche...

Those guys over there, whoever they came from, are definitely going to get what's coming to them!

Even a Contra-level powerhouse would have to give Avalanche some face, so these guys are even more unlucky!

Shrek Academy had no intention of causing any more trouble here, so they let Avalanche leave with his people.

"Let's keep going." Flander didn't care at all and led the Shrek Academy students towards the Tian Dou Royal Academy campus.

Soon, about twenty miles outside of Tiandou City, they found the Tiandou Royal Academy. After admiring the beautiful scenery, they went inside and found Qin Ming, and then they met...

The three members of the teaching committee of Tiandou Royal Academy!

Everything seemed to be going in the direction they hoped for.

however……

……

"I apologize for the poor hospitality..." Ning Feiliu said with a smile as she left after settling the people from Blazing Fire Academy.

To be honest, the Blazing Fire Academy's guidance actually brought them quite a few benefits.

After all, Ning Feiliu was very wealthy. Along the way, he and the Blazing Fire Academy enjoyed the best hotels and food in the area.

Upon arriving in Tiandou City, he was immediately placed in the Tiandou Royal Academy by the Blazing Fire Academy and enjoyed a royal meal in the capital.

Then he took Dugu Yan to find Dugu Bo.

When they arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Dugu Bo and the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well remained the same as before.

On the contrary, there are more and more Spirit Blossom Trees in Sunset Forest, it seems that Sunset Forest really needs to be renamed.

Ning Feiliu even had a slightly wicked thought: what if Sunset Forest might actually be renamed something like Eternal Forest in the future?

However, after he accidentally let slip the name later, Sunset Forest was indeed renamed Eternal Forest.

Furthermore, with the spread of the Spirit Blossom Tree and the expansion of the Sunset Forest, the Sunset Forest, whose name was more widely known as the Eternal Forest at the time, became the second largest gathering place for soul beasts after the Star Dou Great Forest.

It is even more famous than the far north.

Of course, Sunset Forest is still the same as before.

However, when they met Dugu Bo and Dugu Xin and Duan Zilin, who had become permanent characters in the Little Spirit Realm, Ning Feiliu and Dugu Yan chatted with them for a while.

"Mr. Dugu." Suddenly, a powerful voice came from outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

Ning Feiliu and Dugu Yan did not know each other, but Dugu Bo clearly did.

"Xin'er, Zilin, you two should step aside for a moment," he said softly to his son and daughter-in-law.

"Okay." Dugu Xin and Duan Zilin nodded, then concealed their presence.

"Your Highness, please come in." Dugu Bo waved his hand, and the poison gas barrier outside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye was opened directly.

Then an old man, accompanied by a young man and several guards, respectfully entered.

The old man was dressed in a bright yellow robe embroidered with clusters of flowers, yet it did not appear disheveled. His white hair was neatly combed back, and he was of medium build, slightly overweight, and had a dignified appearance.

However, her eyes looked a bit small, which disrupted the overall look of her facial features.

Ning Feiliu and Dugu Yan naturally couldn't possibly not guess who this was...

This is none other than Prince Xue Xing, the younger brother of Emperor Xue Ye of the Tian Dou Empire, and the only Soul Saint among the direct descendants of the Tian Dou royal family.

Although it was somewhat unexpected and not mentioned in the original work, Ning Feiliu knew that Prince Xuexing possessed the strength of a Soul Saint.

This is why Prince Xuexing had the confidence to confront Ning Fengzhi head-on in the original work, and also why he had the confidence to clash with Meng Shenji, the teaching committee member of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Besides his princely status, his cultivation level was also quite high.

The Heavenly Dou Royal Family is completely different from the Star Luo Royal Family. The Star Luo Royal Family's method of determining the crown prince is to choose the strongest among the princes, who has the most powerful cultivation and the most ruthless methods.

However, the requirements for cultivation level are very high.

It can be said that the emperors who were chosen were basically all Soul Masters, although their methods and other abilities might be slightly inferior.

But what about the Heavenly Dou Royal Family? First of all, the current emperor, Xue Ye, is only a Soul Master. If the Star Luo Royal Family had the same way of raising a crown prince, Xue Xing should have been the one to win in the end.

However, the current emperor is Emperor Xueye, while Xuexing is relegated to the position of prince.

However, judging from the political tactics used in the later plot, Emperor Xueye's cultivation level was not high, but his methods were obviously extremely high, far surpassing those of Prince Xuexing, who was always outspoken.

Therefore, it was the Xueye Emperor, whose cultivation level was not high, who became the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, rather than simply the Xuexing Prince, whose cultivation level was higher.

Prince Xuexing may have known that he was not fit to be an emperor, so he felt it was acceptable to be subordinate to Xueye. He even became friends with Xuebeng, the fourth prince of Emperor Xueye.

As for the one behind him, Ning Feiliu and Dugu Yan could both guess that it must be the current fourth prince of the empire, Xue Beng.

Ning Feiliu gave Xue Beng a deep look. Who would have thought that the Fourth Prince Xue Beng, who seemed to have the worst reputation and was a complete playboy, was actually just pretending to be a playboy?

Moreover, he even had the last laugh and became the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, which should have been something no one could have imagined.
