Chapter 39 Border Exchange

At the border between the two countries.

Xue Qinghe truly fulfilled his previous promise, personally leading people to welcome Nan Feihuang.

Behind him followed a short, stout man dressed in a Douluo robe.

This shows that this person is extraordinary. After all, in the Douluo Continent, those who are qualified to wear the Douluo Robe must be at least Soul Douluo level experts.

"Brother Feihuang, you've finally arrived! I've kept your elder brother Xue waiting for so long." Xue Qinghe was very happy to see Nan Feihuang arrive.

"Brother Xue, I miss you very much too. We've only been communicating through letters all these years, and I've long wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with you again." Nan Feihuang's greatest strength now is not his ability, but his acting skills. The surprise he showed was completely genuine.

"Haha, okay, then I'll definitely take good care of you for the next three years," Xue Qinghe said with a smile.

"Three years? Isn't it two years?" Nan Feihuang was taken aback. He had previously told Xue Qinghe that they would exchange two years.

Xue Qinghe patted Nan Feihuang on the shoulder, "Don't worry about what you can learn in two years. Your big brother will make sure that the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy teaches you everything it knows."

Nan Feihuang was helpless; he had been outmaneuvered by Xue Qinghe. What good was the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy's complete instruction?

This world is unlike other fantasy worlds, where various cultivation techniques and martial arts are abundant. In fact, for Nan Feihuang, it doesn't matter much where he cultivates.

Therefore, he originally only planned to come to the Heavenly Dou Empire for a year, spend half a year building a good relationship with the Royal Fighting Team and others, especially Dugu Yan, try to meet and befriend Dugu Bo, and then spend another half a year curing Dugu Bo's poison, obtaining his help and the immortal herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

Once everything is done, we can go back.

But now that the die is cast, Nan Feihuang could only bow and express his gratitude, "Thank you, Brother Xue."

"Mr. Bai Baoshan, it's been a long time. I'll be troubling you to take care of my son from now on, as well as my son's good friend Gou Huo. I'm extremely grateful," Lan Xue said to the short, stout man.

It turns out that this person is Bai Baoshan, one of the three teaching committee members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, whose martial soul is the Heavenly Star Furnace, and who is currently an 84th-level defensive-type Soul Douluo.

In Contra, there are a few characters whose defensive capabilities can be compared to those of Hu Yanzhen, the leader of the Elephant Armor Sect, and Niu Gao, the patriarch of the Imperial Clan.

Even for a titled Douluo, breaking through his defenses would be no easy task.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind," Bai Baoshan hurriedly said. Although he was older than Lan Xue, he was only a Soul Douluo after all, and his status was far inferior to that of a Title Douluo. Lan Xue's politeness made him feel a little embarrassed.

"By the way, these two are the pride of our Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo. They possess the top-tier defensive beast spirit Xuanwu Turtle, which is water-attribute, yet they can also condense water into ice, just like Your Majesty, to enhance their attack and defense. We humbly request Your Majesty to bestow upon them some guidance."

Bai Baoshan brought two people from the Royal Fighting Team. Since they were exchange students, and the Kingdom of Gulei sent two people to the Heavenly Fighting Royal Academy, it would be fair for Heavenly Fighting to send someone to the Kingdom of Gulei Royal Academy as well.

Bai Baoshan chose the Shi brothers.

"Alright, Mr. Bai, please rest assured that our country will not neglect the two of them, and I am willing to personally teach them a thing or two," Lan Xue said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The Shi brothers were overjoyed and quickly expressed their gratitude to Lan Xue. Although being exchange students would mean being away from their friends in the Royal Fighting World for a long time, the opportunity to receive guidance from a Title Douluo was extremely precious, so they cherished this exchange student opportunity very much.

After the two parties reached an agreement, Lan Xue pulled her son over, gave him some instructions, and tied a gold-patterned belt around Nan Feihuang's waist.

"Mother, what is this?" Nan Feihuang asked.

"This is one of our country's treasures, a storage soul tool that can store living things. It's golden, magnificent, and dazzling," Lan Xue described. "The storage space is about fifty cubic meters. I've put all your necessities for daily life, as well as some herbs you need for cultivation, inside. There's also a card with one million gold soul coins. This includes your father's savings accumulated over many years. If you need to spend any money, just do it. You don't need to deprive yourself while traveling."

As the saying goes, "A mother worries when her son travels a thousand miles." Although Lan Xue knew that Nan Feihuang would not suffer any grievances or lack money in the Tian Dou Empire, she still kept giving him earnest advice.

Nan Feihuang responded softly to all of them.

After a long while, Lan Xue reluctantly let go of her son, and the two groups, along with the four students they had exchanged, went their separate ways.

The Heavenly Dou Royal Academy prepared two carriages: one for Bai Baoshan and one for Xun Yu, while Nan Feihuang naturally shared one with Xue Qinghe.

"Brother Feihuang, is Gou Huo your friend? He seems to be quite strong too?" Xue Qinghe asked. She had already decided that Nan Feihuang was definitely one of her people, so she needed to know more about the people around him.

"Yes, he's my confidant. His martial spirit is a military talisman, which can summon soldiers..." Nan Feihuang explained Xun Yu's abilities to Xue Qinghe.

Of course, there were some reservations. The effects of developing this military talisman martial spirit to its limit were not explicitly stated. It was only said that it could summon some soldiers equivalent to low-level soul masters.

Xue Qinghe nodded after listening, without giving it much thought. Although the military talisman spirit looked good, it was nothing special. Even if one reached the Limit Douluo level, one could only summon two hundred soldiers, which was incomparable to her six-winged angel.

Such an ordinary person would be considered a genius in the Kingdom of Gulei, and was even selected by the Kingdom of Gulei to become an exchange student who came to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy with Nan Feihuang.

Indeed, it is already very fortunate that a mere Kingdom like Gulei could produce a genius like Nan Feihuang. To dream of having a second one is simply wishful thinking.

Moreover, in her opinion, even Nan Feihuang owed his exceptional talent to Lan Xue, who inherited his bloodline.

The Ancient Lei Book, the royal martial soul of the Ancient Lei Kingdom, is said to be close to a top-tier martial soul, but in reality, very few kings throughout history have been able to achieve the Soul Douluo level.

Nan Feihuang's father, Nan Tianchen, reached the Soul Saint realm in his fifties, which is already quite remarkable.

After thinking for a moment, Xue Qinghe concluded that there were only three entities in the entire Gulei Kingdom worth bringing under his control: Nan Feihuang, Lan Xue, and the country's agriculture.

After traveling for most of the day, the carriage finally arrived at Tiandou City, the capital of the Tiandou Empire.

This city is known as one of the three great cities on the Douluo Continent, on par with Star Luo City of the Star Luo Empire and Spirit City of the Spirit Hall.

In terms of both area and level of development, it far surpasses the ancient Lei Royal City of Nan Feihuang's family.

The two carriages separated before entering the city. Xun Yu followed Bai Baoshan directly to the Tiandou Royal Academy, which was not located in the city but on Tiandou Mountain outside the city.

Nan Feihuang followed Xue Qinghe into the city first.

After all, he is the crown prince of the Kingdom of Gulei and Xue Ke's fiancé. Logically and emotionally, he should first pay his respects to his future father-in-law, Emperor Xue Ye, upon arriving here.
