Lu Mingfei starts from Douluo
Chapter 21 Seeking Education
Lu Mingfei stepped out the door, a gold soul coin tucked into his pocket, his steps slightly unsteady.
After becoming a Soul Master, one can earn one Soul Master's Soul every month, and one Soul Master's Soul is enough to cover the living expenses of a family of three in the city for two or three months.
In the past, this would have been considered petty bourgeois.
Although his parents used to give him much more in child support each month, the only pocket money he could actually spend was enough to buy a bottle of energy drink when he went online on weekends.
"Boss, two roast chickens." Lu Mingfei waved his hand and retaliated by spending a lot.
He had been eating dry rations in the mountains for half a month, and his mouth was so dry it was practically parched.
He did consider hunting, but later realized he hadn't brought any seasonings with him, and apart from small fish and shrimp, nothing else he could roast was inedible.
With a chicken leg in his mouth, Lu Mingfei left the city. His luggage was still hidden in the woods outside the city. Every time he thought about it, he really wanted to get a storage soul tool.
However, this item is not even in stock in some small city stores. I asked the shopkeeper and found out that this item is scarce everywhere. Even the cheapest storage soul tool costs several hundred gold soul coins.
Lu Mingfei only realized at this moment that the master was a truly ruthless person. He gave away nearly 10,000 gold soul coins as a gift. No wonder Tang San was so devoted to him. If you calculate it, it's equivalent to a property in the city center. He was really willing to spend money for his guinea pig.
If he had encountered such a stroke of good fortune when he was six years old, he would have been hit with several bumps before he knew to turn back.
We're still poor.
Lu Mingfei shook his head, left the city, and prepared to find a place to rest for a while before using his flying ability to travel again at night.
He spent the last two weeks in the mountains thinking it over, and decided to go to school. He knew that working in isolation wouldn't work; an academy was still an academy, with systematic teaching materials and the experience of predecessors. Maybe there were some methods or techniques that could speed up his cultivation.
Moreover, some mid-to-high-level academies are the places where he is most likely to safely come into contact with high-level Soul Masters. In the early stages, whether it is to develop in a sneaky manner or to gather information, they are the best choices.
He had seen some admission brochures for intermediate and advanced academies in the Notting City Library, and the one recommended first was the Heaven Dou Royal Intermediate Soul Master Academy.
Lu Mingfei was prepared to give it a try. This place, which was equivalent to a national key high school, looked like a place where hidden talents were waiting to be discovered. Even if he couldn't get in, he could just treat it as a trip to Tiandou City to explore the map. Anyway, he could fly fast and it would only take him two nights to get there.
After strolling around the streets for a while and replenishing his supplies, Lu Mingfei left the city, intending to rest during the day.
To be honest, when he first appeared in the wilderness, he was afraid of being carried away by wolves if he sat in the open, but now he really is living the life of a vagrant.
-
Two days later, Nottingham.
In the afternoon, the sky was somewhat gloomy and drowsy, making one feel sleepy.
However, Xiao Wu was still full of energy, leading her underlings to cause trouble everywhere.
Lu Mingfei has been missing for more than half a month. Although everyone was a little sad at first, they have gotten used to it now.
Even Tang San believed that Lu Mingfei must have met with some misfortune, and that successfully hunting a soul was simply impossible. He couldn't enter the Soul Hunting Forest and hadn't returned; surely he couldn't have gone to the Star Dou Great Forest? It seemed like a near-death experience.
Tang San put the matter of this formidable enemy out of his mind and then thought of Xiao Wu. He felt that he and Xiao Wu had gotten along very well during this period, and he had even taken her to visit the teacher several times. Xiao Wu was much more well-behaved than Lu Mingfei. The teacher always had a smile on his face when he saw Xiao Wu, which gave him a strange feeling of home.
Xiao Wu is his beloved younger sister, and the master is his loving elder.
He had never experienced such a warm feeling in his previous life in the Tang Sect, not even in the days he spent in Holy Soul Village.
Tang San sat cross-legged on the bed when a deep but incredibly familiar voice rang out in front of him, interrupting his meditation.
"The other woman"
When Tang San opened his eyes, he almost thought he had gone into a demonic illusion. This was the dormitory of Notting Academy. His father would suddenly appear here, and his Xuan Tian Gong hadn't noticed anything.
"dad."
But he quickly realized it was all true, and his nose tingled with emotion, tears welling up in his eyes. He stepped forward and hugged Tang Hao.
"Little San, I've come to take you away." Tang Hao, dressed in a black robe, gently patted Tang San's head.
"Leave? What happened to Dad?" Tang Hao's words made him uneasy. He knew that his father was hiding his identity, and in his experience, this situation could only mean that his enemies were chasing him.
"There's no time to explain. Take Xiao Wu with you, we're leaving soon. I'll explain to you when we're safe." Tang Hao's weathered face suddenly furrowed as he looked out the window, then grabbed Tang San's shoulder and vanished instantly.
Tang San didn't even have time to see what was happening before he stopped and realized that he had arrived at the back mountain of the academy, where Xiao Wu and several of his roommates were.
The moment the two appeared, everyone was startled as if they had seen a ghost, and Xiao Wu's rosy face turned deathly pale instantly.
"Xiao Wu?" Tang San was a little stunned. His father was going to take Xiao Wu with him?
Just as he was still confused, several dark figures rushed from the clouds on the horizon, their immense soul power causing the clouds to churn.
Upon seeing this, Tang Hao instantly used his soul power to subdue Xiao Wu, then stunned all the children. At the same time, he covered Xiao Wu with his black robe and handed her to Tang San.
"You audacious remnant of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Hao, today is the day you and that bastard die!" The voice of the old acquaintance Chrysanthemum Douluo rang out, and the figures of five Title Douluos descended above Notting Academy, simultaneously unleashing their Martial Soul True Forms. Such an astonishing commotion plunged the entire city of Notting into panic.
"Dad!" Tang San couldn't help but tremble. He never expected that the enemies his father was hiding from were actually five Title Douluos!
Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo immediately unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Skill. The last battle proved that although Tang Hao could forcibly break through their domain, the cost was astonishing. This time, they had three helpers, and Tang Hao would have no chance of escaping again.
"Xiao San, don't be afraid, hold Xiao Wu tight." Tang Hao said softly, then summoned the Clear Sky Hammer. Nine spirit rings instantly unfolded from his body, especially the last red spirit ring, which instantly neutralized the pressure from the five people.
"You think you can keep me here!" Tang Hao laughed domineeringly. In an instant, the Clear Sky Hammer in his right hand expanded thousands of times, and red lines appeared on the Clear Sky Hammer. In the blink of an eye, the entire hammer turned completely red.
With two children in his left arm, Tang Hao leaped into the air, while his right hand swung a massive hammer the size of a small mountain, furiously slamming it down on the five people.
Such an astonishing fluctuation of soul power greatly alarmed the leader, Chrysanthemum Demon Douluo.
"not good!"
Chrysanthemum Demon Douluo unleashed his full soul power using his Martial Soul Fusion Technique to withstand the attack, while the remaining three Title Douluos immediately unleashed their strongest soul skills.
The deafening roar, as if a divine punishment, shook the entire city of Nottingham, causing all the residents to lose consciousness and fall into a coma.
The five figures flew backwards out of the city, and the giant red hammer disappeared as well.
"Tang Hao!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo and the others stared palely in the direction where Tang Hao had disappeared; that hammer blow had almost cost him his life.
Even if he were to chase after them now, he wouldn't dare. They originally thought that Tang Hao, who was injured, couldn't possibly be a match for so many of them, but who would have thought that he could still unleash such an amazing attack.
If Tang Hao were healthy today, they would all probably have perished here.
"Let's go back and report."
The five men disappeared. Having repeatedly failed in their duties, they will likely face severe punishment upon their return.
-
In a secluded mountain forest, Xiao Wu slowly awoke to find Tang San's anxious face and Tang Hao's expressionless, cold face, his clothes tattered and torn.
Her delicate face turned deathly pale. She knew exactly what had just happened: six Title Douluos! Her identity had been exposed!
"Let's do it." Xiao Wu closed her eyes.
"Dad." Tang San was still unaware of what had happened, but he realized that Xiao Wu's identity was probably extraordinary as well.
"I will not lay a hand on you." Tang Hao shook his head. "The mistress's mother would not allow me to do so either."
Xiao Wu opened her eyes; if she were alive, she certainly didn't want to die.
"Mother?" Tang San's heart skipped a beat. Having lived two lives, he had no recollection of the word "mother".
"Little San, it's time to tell you something." A hint of confusion appeared in Tang Hao's eyes: "Actually, my identity is that of a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect, the number one sect on the continent, and your mother is the Blue Silver Emperor, a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast."
Tang Hao recounted his experiences over the past twenty years, and Tang San finally understood just how complicated his background had been.
"I originally planned to distract them by attacking the Spirit Hall branch and destroy all your files, but I didn't expect to be ambushed at the seventh branch." Tang Hao coughed up blood as he said this.
"Dad," Tang San said anxiously.
"It's nothing, just that my old injuries flared up from fighting today." Tang Hao breathed a few sighs and continued, "I thought that if your files disappeared, you wouldn't be discovered, but I didn't expect the Spirit Hall to have such a keen sense of smell. They must have conducted a thorough investigation across the entire continent. This time, the gathering of three people with innate full-strength spirit power can't be kept secret from anyone!"
"The Spirit Hall is so despicable! And it turns out all of this is because of Lu Mingfei!" Tang San gritted his teeth.
Through Tang Hao's description, Tang San already knew that their exposure was all because Lu Mingfei came to Notting City to awaken his martial soul.
Even though Lu Mingfei was completely unaware, Tang San had already blamed him for the attack that happened today, and Lu Mingfei had really caused him a lot of trouble.
"Dad, Lu Mingfei is missing. Is that you?" Tang San suddenly asked.
"It wasn't me. He was already gone when I came back from recovering from my injuries." Tang Hao shook his head. He had his pride too; how could he possibly lay a hand on a kid on the street?
Xiao Wu listened with mixed feelings. She couldn't blame anyone. Lu Mingfei and Tang San were the reasons for her exposure. She could only blame her own bad luck, encountering a Title Douluo as soon as she left home.
"We're quite close to the Star Dou Great Forest now. Feel free to leave if you wish," Tang Hao said to Xiao Wu in a low voice. "The Spirit Hall probably didn't discover your presence today. In a few years, you can change your name and continue your cultivation in another city."
Xiao Wu couldn't believe her ears. Tang Hao seemed to really be going to let her go. She thought that once she grew up a few years later, as long as she didn't register with the Spirit Hall again, everything would be fine.
"Xiao Wu." Tang San's eyes were filled with reluctance. "Since your cultivation cannot be separated from humans, why don't you come with us to Soto City and start over? My father and I will protect you."
Tang San's genuine emotions touched Xiao Wu instantly. Recalling the care Tang San had given her these past few days, his identity, and his actions in protecting her today, all of these made her feel very safe.
What attracts her even more is that they all have a blood feud with the Spirit Hall, especially Tang Hao, who killed the previous Pope of the Spirit Hall for the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor. Tang San has twin spirits and outstanding talent, so he might be able to help her avenge her mother in the future.
After a long silence, she finally nodded, because she didn't know how long it would take to avenge herself against the Spirit Hall on her own. Moreover, she felt from the bottom of her heart that Tang San hadn't lied. It was indeed a good thing to have two family members who could protect her.
"In that case, let's rest for one more night and set off for Shrek Academy in Soto City tomorrow."
Tang Hao got up and jumped to the treetop to guard the injured. Xiao Wu and Tang San exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.
"Thank you, mistress, and your father."
"Xiao Wu, I will definitely protect you."
Tang Hao listened to their conversation from the treetop, a smile unknown to anyone else on his face.
-
Four days later, in Tiandou City.
As the capital of the Heavenly Dou Empire, this is a magnificent city with walls tens of meters high and ten meters thick. Upon closer inspection, one can occasionally see huge claw marks left on the walls.
Lu Mingfei had read the brief history book of Douluo Continent. More than a thousand years ago, the previous civilization was suddenly destroyed. The humans who survived in the ruins resisted the attacks of soul beasts and rebuilt their cities. Tian Dou City was built at that time.
As Lu Mingfei walked with his backpack, he couldn't help but marvel. He had never traveled before and had only seen photos of such classical architecture on websites.
Before long, he was queuing at the city gate. It was the morning rush hour for people entering the city, and Lu Mingfei waited for quite a while before reaching the city gate.
Seeing that Lu Mingfei was dressed in tattered clothes and carrying a large bundle, the guard immediately thought that he was a vagrant who was planning to enter the city to beg, and asked him questions directly.
"What are you going to do in town?"
"I'm enrolling in the Soul Master Academy." As he spoke, Lu Mingfei took out the badge issued by the Spirit Hall, which proved that he was a Soul Master.
The guard was shocked. He hadn't expected that such a young child was already a Soul Master. Clearly, he couldn't afford to offend him.
Having successfully entered the city, Lu Mingfei first asked for directions and found a bookstore to buy a detailed map of Tiandou City, starting his travel guide.
Tiandou City has a permanent population of over a million, and there are many Soul Master academies of all sizes. Of course, Lu Mingfei wouldn't put all his eggs in one basket; he didn't believe there wasn't a suitable one among so many academies.
