Douluo Continent: Building a Divine Kingdom Starting from the Spirit Hall

The little girl shook her head, indicating that she didn't want to.

Would you like to become my disciple?

Recalling the famous scene of Tang Shenwang recognizing his father yesterday, Tian Hao suddenly had an idea.

"Tang Lan greets his teacher."

Xiao Lan readily knelt down and kowtowed three times to Tian Hao, acknowledging him as her teacher.

"We'll go to the college to retrieve your luggage."

He helped the little girl up, took her little hand, and continued walking, his mind on the master, who was his closest friend.

He still remembered the storage soul tools that the master had given him, as well as the many precious things inside, especially Luo Sanpao at the end.

The master is such a kind person!

“Teaching a rare genius into a strong person is not a real skill. I will show you how to teach an ordinary person into a strong person, and make him surpass your disciple for a lifetime.”

Tian Hao was increasingly looking forward to it. He said he didn't care about Yu Xiaogang, but deep down he did care a lot, especially because of the little teacher and the pretty senior sister. Men can be a little petty sometimes, which is why he had the idea of ​​taking this girl in.

"Where did you run off to, you silly girl? I was so worried about you last night."

The young gatekeeper at the main gate breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Lan return. He had a good impression of this girl, unlike the boy who came with her.

"Are you a deacon of the Spirit Hall?"

After checking on Xiao Lan and confirming that she was alright, the young gatekeeper looked at Tian Hao. He noticed the distinctive uniform of the Spirit Hall on Tian Hao's body, especially the badge on his chest, and guessed that he was a deacon of the Spirit Hall.

"What's wrong with you, buddy? Did your wife take too much of your time last night?"

Tian Hao, as if they were old friends, stepped forward and placed a ball of holy light and soul power in his palm on the young guard's waist to help him repair the muscle strain in his lower back.

While Holy Light Soul Power isn't as specialized in healing injuries as Life Force, it still has some effect.

"Don't even mention it. We had a mishap yesterday. The guy who came with this girl was really strong. He pushed her hard and she fell to the ground and twisted her ankle."

Seeing that this was a friendly and approachable Spirit Hall Soul Master, and with the other party taking the initiative to help relieve his waist injury, the young gatekeeper relaxed and couldn't help but complain about what happened yesterday.

He genuinely disliked those kids from the countryside; they didn't know any manners and deserved to be bullied at the academy.

“I know that kid. I think his name is Tang San. I'm the one who awakened his martial soul. He seemed quite quiet back then. How did he end up having a conflict with you?”

Xiao Lan was bullied in the dormitory yesterday. A girl kicked out all of her front teeth, and her mouth is still bruised.

Is this still a Soul Master Academy? It's even more ruthless than the Soul Master world itself.

Tian Hao asked, and also made a complaint.

That little rabbit really doesn't understand the rules. You, a transformed soul beast, come to the human world and instead of lowering your profile and developing in a cowardly manner, you're so high-profile. Do you have a death wish?

"I asked about this last night. The girl who hit someone also came to the college to register yesterday afternoon. She looked quite cute, but I didn't expect her to be so fierce. She doesn't seem like a six-year-old child at all."

"By the way, I felt something was off about the guy who came with this girl yesterday. He looked a lot like one of those mercenaries who'd killed people."

When asked about his impression of the young man from yesterday, the young doorman felt that he was not simple, especially when the young man manifested his martial spirit wooden stick to drive him away. He felt that the young man was like those mercenaries who licked blood from the edge of a knife, obviously someone who had killed people.

"I understand. Could you please take me to see the relevant leaders of your college? I need to process Xiao Lan's withdrawal from school. I will take care of this child from now on."

Nodding solemnly, Tian Hao indicated that he would process the withdrawal procedures for his child.

“Her personality is indeed not suitable for her to stay in the academy anymore. Please come with me.”

The young doorman glanced at the timid little girl following behind Tian Hao, nodded, and led the way.

After bringing the two men to their destination, the young gatekeeper returned to continue guarding the gate.

Tian Hao helped Xiao Lan complete the withdrawal procedures amidst the constant apologies from the college teachers, and then Xiao Lan led her to dormitory number seven.

Classes hadn't started yet; the people in Dormitory 7 had just gotten up and washed up, and everyone was still there.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw Xiao Lan bring in an adult. Then, Wang Sheng and the others all looked at their leader, Xiao Wu, with worried expressions.

Could it be that Xiao Lan's parents have arrived and are looking for the boss to settle scores?

Although the eldest sister has level ten soul power, her body hasn't fully developed yet, so she might not be able to defeat an adult man.

Go get your luggage.

Tian Hao gestured to Xiao Lan, then walked over to Tang San, squatted down to look him in the eye, and then suddenly unleashed a burst of killing intent.

Stimulated by the murderous aura, Tang San, who was already on guard, instinctively became defensive, raising his wrist slightly, ready to unleash his hidden arrow.

"The killing intent was pure; he really looked like someone who had killed someone before."

Sensing the killing intent that Tang San was unleashing, Tian Hao withdrew his killing intent and nodded.

Tang Shan Wang was indeed not a kind person. He had killed many people who had infiltrated the Tang Clan to cause trouble when he was patrolling and guarding the mountains in the past.

He had also seen this in Tang Shenwang's memory; he was no pushover and could be considered decisive in killing.

"Bring me that certificate, and yours too. As a patrol officer of the Spirit Hall, I have the right, and now the reason, to revoke your awakening certificates and put you on the Spirit Hall's unwelcome list, so you will not be allowed to receive Soul Master subsidies."

If you are dissatisfied, you can file a complaint at the Martial Soul Branch Hall in the city.

By the way, my name is Tian Boguang. Don't forget to mention my name when you file a complaint.

Standing up, Tian Hao gestured for the two to take out their own Martial Soul Awakening Certificates.

Why should I give it to you?

Xiao Wu was unwilling. She had just learned from chatting with Wang Sheng and others last night that there was money to be made after becoming a first-ring Soul Master. She could get a gold soul coin every month, which could buy so many delicious things.

Most importantly, that money still belongs to the damned Spirit Hall; why not take it?

Now that person not only wants to take away the martial spirit awakening certificate that I obtained by pretending to be an orphan in that village, but also wants to deprive me of my right to receive subsidies. How can I tolerate this?

Tang San was also unhappy, as he was currently short of money and was looking forward to the Soul Master subsidy.

Since it's money from the Spirit Hall anyway, why not take it?

"Our Spirit Hall's mission is to maintain peace and stability in the Spirit Master world. One of you has pure killing intent, and the other is tyrannical and cruel. You knocked out your classmate's teeth as soon as school started. The other has the ability to stop it but remains indifferent, letting his fellow villager be bullied."

The Soul Master Academy is a place for you to learn and improve yourselves, not a place for bullies to harass your classmates. This is the last peaceful place in the Soul Master world, and it must not be destroyed.

Soul Masters like you will only cause trouble in the Soul Master world in the future. The Spirit Hall least welcomes people like you, and Soul Master subsidies should not be used on people like you.

Our Spirit Hall has detailed rules and regulations in this regard, which you can borrow from the Spirit Hall branch if you are interested.

"Now hand over your Martial Soul Awakening certificates. I will take them back and add them to my unwelcome list. If you disagree, you can sue me."

Tian Hao spoke very seriously, and the improvement of these rules and regulations was something he had proposed earlier, especially after the two great empires cut off the supply of subsidies for soul masters, all of which was made up by their Spirit Hall.

Since we are using our own money, we must never do anything foolish like funding the enemy.

It certainly can't be used on these two.

After frowning for a while, Tang San glanced coldly at Xiao Lan, who had walked behind Tian Hao, before taking out the Martial Soul Awakening Certificate from his bag and handing it over.

Since that's what they've said, it's no use if he doesn't hand it over.

"Little dance!"

Tang San glanced at Xiao Wu, who still looked unwilling, and gestured for her to take it out quickly.

The person in front of them was a second-ring Soul Master, someone the two of them couldn't handle. Even using hidden arrows wouldn't guarantee success.

"Who cares?"

Xiao Wu muttered something, took out the certificate and threw it over, while glaring hatefully at Xiao Lan standing behind someone.

She had felt a little guilty before, especially since the other person hadn't come back all night, and she had been worried about it, but now all she felt was annoyance.

She didn't do it on purpose yesterday; who would have thought that someone from the same village as Xiao Sanzi would be so weak?

"And you too, I am very disappointed with what you did yesterday. Our Spirit Hall is working to help commoners awaken their spirits and negotiate with all junior spirit master academies to establish the work-study system, not so that you can be aggressive, form cliques, and build your own factions."

With you guys like this, how much focus can you possibly have on studying all day?

Therefore, I will also revoke your Spirit Awakening certificates and add you to the Spirit Hall's unwelcome list. If you disagree, you can come to the Spirit Hall branch to complain about me. Remember, my name is Tian Boguang.

Turning to look at Wang Sheng and the others who hadn't dared to speak, Tian Hao gestured for them to hand over their proof.

In his past life, he was often bullied by his classmates because of his introverted nature, especially in elementary school when there were gangs and cliques. He was bullied many times, so he especially hated this kind of behavior.

School is a place for learning, not for you to form cliques and engage in shady dealings.

"what?"

Wang Sheng and the others never expected to be implicated, and they panicked after realizing what had happened.

You have to understand that they're eyeing the subsidy they'll receive after reaching level ten and becoming a one-ring Soul Master. Their families are also watching, and if they find out that they've squandered the Soul Master subsidy, they'll be beaten to death.

In their panic, the group all turned to their leader, Xiao Wu, hoping she could come up with a solution.

But what solutions could Xiao Wu come up with?

Should we fight that bad guy?

She was helpless and powerless to defeat a level 10 Soul Master who was a second-ring Grand Soul Master.

“Sir, our unity is out of necessity. As work-study students, we are bullied by many classmates in the academy, so we have no choice but to unite. It is not because we are forming cliques or engaging in violence.”

Finally, Wang Sheng, the oldest among them, forced himself to explain, hoping that the deacon of the Spirit Hall could show leniency and let them off this time.

"Our Spirit Hall has a dedicated reporting department. As long as you bring evidence to report, we will investigate and take appropriate action."

Although we did not go all out to punish the academy students, we can still revoke their Spirit Awakening certificates, add them to the Spirit Hall's unwelcome list, and even record their entire families, prohibiting them from receiving Spirit Awakening certificates from our Spirit Hall personnel for three generations.

We will also try our best to keep the identity of whistleblowers confidential. If they suffer retaliation, they can seek help from the Spirit Hall. If the other party's behavior is egregious, we can impose substantial punishment.

Tian Hao patiently explained to the group that he took the violent incidents involving minors very seriously because these kids were not mature enough and didn't know their own strength. It would be fine if they only caused minor injuries, but what if they caused serious injuries, disability, or even death?

You should know that these brats are all armed with their own weapons. If pushed too far, they'll pull out their martial soul knives and go at you. Those with beast martial souls are no slouch either; they can really kill people.

Of course, they are not saying that students cannot spar, but it must be a normal spar, and it must be done under the supervision and guidance of teachers to minimize the risk of accidents.

"Is there such a rule?"

Wang Sheng and the others were completely bewildered; they really didn't know this.

“You bunch of stupid boys, when you step out of the house, don’t just think about using your fists and knives. Learn to use your brains, so that your parents won’t have to bury you in the future.”

Shaking his head speechlessly, Tian Hao genuinely felt sorry for and troubled by these unruly children, and also felt saddened by the distorted society of this world.

The phrase "might makes right" sounds impressive, but who can truly understand the bloody darkness hidden beneath it?

The most distinctive feature of human society is civilization, while barbarism is the characteristic of the world of soul beasts.
