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

"I always said it was a mistake to let Qin Ming leave back then; look how sought-after he is now."

Meng Shenji slapped his forehead in frustration, knowing that he probably wouldn't be able to invite Qin Ming back.

"Gold shines wherever it is."

Bai Baoshan was very regretful, but since things had come to this point, they couldn't say anything more, otherwise it would be a loss if they really offended these three prodigies of Blue Tyrant Academy.

"You have excellent judgment. Qin Ming was once the most outstanding teacher of our Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and he is also our successor. I have high expectations for the future of Blue Tyrant Academy by inviting him to be the dean of your academy."

Zhilin also expressed his opinion, indicating his optimism about Blue Tyrant Academy.

Currently, Blue Tyrant Academy not only has three prodigies, but also outstanding talents like Qin Ming. It would be difficult for it not to rise to prominence in the future, and it may even develop into a Soul Master University.

"Since you extended an invitation to Qin Ming before us, I will not play the villain."

However, Teacher Qin Ming is, after all, a graduate of our Heaven Dou Royal Academy. I hope he can serve as a bridge for friendly exchanges between our two academies. You can also have more exchanges with our Royal Fighting team during this Soul Master Competition.

You young people always have things in common to talk about.

Meng Shenji finally stated that although losing Qin Ming was a great pity, it wouldn't be bad to let Qin Ming become the dean of Lanba Academy, as it would also benefit their Tiandou Royal Academy.

After all, Blue Tyrant Academy must have something special to cultivate three prodigies, so more exchanges between the two academies would be beneficial.

"That's exactly what we were thinking too. Professor Qin Ming has mentioned some of your college's teaching philosophies to us many times before, which has benefited us greatly. We hope to have the opportunity to visit and exchange ideas with your college in the future, and we also welcome the three seniors to come to our Lanba Academy for guidance."

Seeing that the Dream God had shown goodwill, Jiangzhu also expressed her agreement.

Although they are all vying for Teacher Qin Ming, there's no need to cause trouble. Many things can be resolved through communication, and bad things can even turn into good things.

"Then it's settled. After this Soul Master Competition ends, I will bring people to your Blue Tyrant Academy for exchange and learning."

Meng Shenji was also satisfied with Jiangzhu's attitude, and took the opportunity to finalize their relationship.

The two sides then had a pleasant conversation, and it was quite some time before Meng Shenji and the other two left.

"Will Professor Qin Ming refuse our invitation this time?"

After seeing Meng Shenji and the other two off, Jiangzhu smiled and said.

Huang Yuan and Jing Ling both smiled, relieved that they could finally settle the matter.

"I was still a teacher at Shrek Academy before this Soul Master Competition ended."

Shaking his head helplessly, Qin Ming did not refuse, but he did make his stance clear.

He will definitely keep his promise to Teacher Yue.

"Tomorrow it's our turn to fight Shrek Academy. Teacher Qin Ming, could you give us some inside information?"

Jiangzhu asked with a smile, explaining that they would be randomly paired up again after the competition ended today, and they were finally matched up against Shrek Academy. They had finally waited for this day.

They've been hiding their strength these past few days, not even revealing their Soul Bone Set when they faced the Dragon Elephant team the day before yesterday, all to give Shrek a surprise.

"I am still Shrek's teacher."

Qin Ming refused curtly, demonstrating his own principles and integrity.

Although I disapprove of and disapprove of many of the things Shrek and his group do, I will not leak their information.

Jiangzhu was not surprised when Qin Ming refused, which was also the main reason why they respected this teacher and invited him to be the dean of Lanba Academy.

Teacher Qin Ming is a very principled person. In the current world of Soul Masters, there are not many people with such principles.

“Teacher Qin Ming, we came here with you, but we found that there are other people following you, and they were here much earlier than us. They are still watching outside.”

Huang Yuan mentioned something: they only came after receiving the news, and when they arrived, Teacher Qin Ming and the other three had already started eating.

When they arrived, they found that someone had arrived earlier than them, and it was someone they knew.

These words left Qin Ming silent for a long time before he finally picked up his teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"I wish you all the best in the Soul Master Competition."

After leaving a message, Qin Ming got up and left. It was time to go back and talk to Dean Flander and the others.

"Is that enough?"

The three of them saw Qin Ming out of the restaurant, and then Jing Ling asked a question in a low voice.

"Don't you know what kind of person Teacher Qin Ming is?"

Watching Teacher Qin Ming's figure disappear into the distance, Jiang Zhu said with a confident air, "There are some things you can't do too much of, otherwise it will only arouse Teacher Qin Ming's dislike, just like the Shrek group now, which Teacher Qin Ming hates."

Huang Yuan nodded in agreement. He had the longest contact with Teacher Qin Ming among the three, and could even be considered Qin Ming's disciple because he had inherited the Claw Intent.

You should know that this is a will attribute, and a rare claw intent at that, which suits him very well.

Where is my senior?

Jiangzhu thought of her senior, Xiao Lang. They had been keeping an eye on the various teams participating in the Soul Master Competition for the past few days, but they hadn't been able to find him.

"Our Heaven Dou Empire has six major regions, and the Star Luo Empire also has several regions. Perhaps you're not in the Heaven Dou region, but with your abilities, you'll definitely make it to the finals."

Huang Yuan had great confidence in that senior. The three of them had already achieved their current success by obtaining three different kinds of strange fire, not to mention the senior himself. His strength would definitely be even greater, and he might even win the championship.

Because the senior was the most talented genius they had ever seen, who had single-handedly created a vast system.

It should be noted that even the Holy Spirit Sword Saint, who ushered in the era of geniuses and introduced the concept of Soul Master Universities, inherited his swordsmanship from Sword Douluo. He did not create it himself; he simply carried forward and developed the swordsmanship.

The subsequent prodigies were similar; none of them created an entire system.

However, my senior has developed a system of strange fires with unlimited potential, and each kind of strange fire is enough to create a genius. When used in combination, they have endless wonderful uses.

His talent is unparalleled, and he will surely usher in a new era.

Leaving aside the three on this side, Qin Ming, with mixed feelings, strode forward and returned to the territory that the Heaven Dou Empire had assigned to Shrek Academy in Snow Peak City. As soon as he returned, he found that everyone was gathered together, obviously waiting for him.

"How about it?"

Upon seeing Qin Ming return, Flander composed himself and asked with a serious expression.

"This is the worst-case scenario. Not only is the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy furious, but the royal family and several noble families are also very angry."

Sitting on the sofa, Qin Ming sighed. Shrek Academy had really gone too far this time, becoming a public enemy of the Heaven Dou Empire's higher-ups.

Although they can't openly turn against the Haotian Sect because of its hidden presence, the academy's future is not going to be easy.

Even if you acquire a hundred miles of land, it won't be of much use.

After all, acquiring a fiefdom is nothing special in itself; the key is that people need to come and turn it into profit and generate wealth. If there are no people, naturally no profit or wealth will be generated.

If the Heavenly Dou royal family were even more ruthless, they could even give them a piece of wasteland or a desert.

After all, although the custom of granting fiefdoms started with the generation of the Holy Spirit Sword Saint, it didn't specify what kind of fiefdoms to grant; it all depended on the mood of the Heavenly Emperor.

If I'm in a good mood, I'll give you a prosperous fiefdom; if I'm in a bad mood, I'll give you a barren desert, and no one can say anything about it.

Shrek Academy is completely finished; it has no future.

Flander's face was extremely gloomy. Although Qin Ming did not say it explicitly, he could tell what was going on. Things had reached a point where they were difficult to resolve.

Yu Xiaogang's expression was equally grim. If the Shrek Academy team was targeted by all the academy teams, then their chances of winning the Soul Master Competition would be slim, and they might not even make it out of the preliminaries.

If that's really the case, what can I use to prove myself?

"Teacher Qin Ming, you've been gone for so long, haven't you seen anyone else?"

Ma Hongjun suddenly asked a question in a strange tone, which could even be described as sarcastic.

All eyes were on Qin Ming, waiting for his explanation.

Qin Ming then looked at Flander, causing Flander to instinctively turn his face away, not daring to meet Qin Ming's gaze.

"I had a meal with three members of the teaching committee of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. They told me about that matter and invited me to return to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. After that, Jiangzhu and the others came to invite me to become the dean of Blue Tyrant Academy. I agreed to go after this Soul Master Competition."

After briefly recounting the events in one breath, Qin Ming's cold gaze swept over everyone present.

"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?"

His promise to become the dean of Blue Tyrant Academy wasn't anything shameful, and there was no big deal about it.

Qin Ming is upright and honest, and has never done anything to wrong Shrek Academy. In the past year, he has made great efforts to improve Shrek Academy. How he chooses to proceed in the future is up to him.

Qin Ming's candor surprised everyone. They thought he would hide something, but he spoke frankly and openly, making them seem like they were judging him by their own petty standards.

"Talon, you won't be needed for the Soul Master Competition from now on. Stay here and learn from me for the next two months. I will teach you everything I can."

Before anyone could speak, Qin Ming made a decision and then got up to leave.

This is a clear indication that they will no longer participate in Shrek Academy's activities related to the Soul Master Competition.

Since you don't trust me, I'll just be straightforward and not contact you. That way, you won't have to worry about me leaking secrets.

"Qin Ming!"

Seeing Qin Ming leave decisively, Flander realized something was wrong and hurriedly chased after him to explain.

Although some of Qin Ming's actions over the past year have annoyed and frustrated him, he also acknowledges Qin Ming's abilities and even believes that Qin Ming is the most suitable successor.

If Qin Ming were to leave Shrek Academy like this, he wouldn't be able to find a suitable replacement.

"Dean Flander, there's something I also need to tell you."

Ning Rongrong suddenly called out to Flander, saying that Tang Chen's grandfather had asked her to convey some things to him.

Seeing that it was Ning Rongrong who spoke, Flander's expression changed slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, he ultimately did not chase after her.

Yu Xiaogang's expression also changed slightly, realizing that it had finally come to pass.

"The repayment of those ten million gold soul coins will be compensated. Starting today, I will be in charge of all tactical arrangements for the Shrek Academy team during the Soul Master Competition."

Third brother, this was a decision made unanimously by your great-grandfather, your grandfather, and your eldest uncle.

Master, if you have any objections, you can go and discuss them with Sect Master Yu. We ask for your cooperation in the meantime.

Ning Rongrong explained the decision made over there and gave special instructions to Yu Xiaogang and Tang San.

Tens of millions of gold soul coins is no small sum, especially now that the three upper sects have declined and gone into seclusion for many years. She didn't know how Tang Chen's grandfather and the others managed to scrape together so many gold soul coins, but it certainly wasn't easy.

If it weren't for Sword Douluo keeping order here, she suspected that Tang Chen's grandfather and the others would have immediately come over and chopped Flander and Yu Xiaogang up.

Flander and Yu Xiaogang both turned ashen-faced, but did not refute.

Because what happened before was indeed embarrassing and a huge embarrassment, they didn't have the confidence to refute it.

However, Tang San felt even more disgusted with the Clear Sky Sect. After hearing Dugu Bo recount the truth of what happened back then, he already had a very bad impression of the Clear Sky Sect. Now, they were even targeting his teacher like this, which was really too much.

"Now let's discuss the tactics for tomorrow against the Blue Tyrant team. Given the grudge between the Blue Tyrant team and us, they will definitely choose to fight tomorrow. Moreover, I feel that they seem to have been hiding their strength these past few days, and they will definitely unleash their full power tomorrow."
