Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Clay, the Creator of All Things

When faced with challenges, they shrink back in fear and hesitate to move forward, then blame their own incompetence on others, especially women.

It's unclear whether this applies only to the uncle and nephew, or to the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

However, Lu Yan was too lazy to pay much attention to Yu Tianheng. In his opinion, this man was no better than Yu Xiaogang.

A brainless clown.

However, he is no longer the insignificant character who had to be careful when facing Yu Xiaogang, and who almost died twice from a Soul Venerable Baron.

Even so, the brief meeting with the three education commissioners made him realize that they wouldn't make any further investments until Dugu Bo gave his approval.

However, judging from the attitudes of the three education commissioners, it is clear that I have indeed come into their view.

One example of this was their promise to protect his safety within the academy and resolve any unnecessary troubles for him.

"It's still a bit 'stingy'." But Lu Yan didn't dwell on it. Ultimately, investment requires mutual consent.

Thus, Lu Yan and Dugu Yan walked towards the library of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, chatting and laughing intimately along the way.

Having been at the academy for three days, it was time for him to try out the Royal Library, which could be considered second only to the Spirit Hall's archives.

Dugu Yan, the little snake girl, didn't have much enthusiasm for reading and was even somewhat averse to studying.

A complete academic failure.

The reason she went to the library was naturally to accompany Lu Yan and to find her new friend Ye Lingling.

It took the two of them more than ten minutes to get to the library.

It must be said that the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy is truly grand, its area encompassing an entire mountain, the forest behind it, and the lake at its foot.

The library's area was naturally enormous, no smaller than the large libraries Lu Yan remembered from his previous life.

After finding Ye Lingling hiding in a corner of the library with Dugu Yan.

Lu Yan took out a lot of snacks he had prepared in advance from his storage ring and distributed them to the two girls.

Then, with the help of the librarian, I plunged into the area of ​​books related to Soul Master meditation methods, Martial Soul development, and Soul Skill development.

Once inside, an entire afternoon would pass by.

However, Lu Yan didn't actually absorb much of the main text.

He spent all his time looking at the general contents of the book.

First, the items were categorized and arranged for reading, and then recorded one by one in the "heavenly book".

Even so, it still took an entire afternoon to complete two-thirds of it.

It wasn't until Ning Fengya rushed over and found him in the library that Lu Yan was brought back from his reverie.

So the two asked the staff for a private, unmanned reading room, which is how they started their conversation.

"Brother Lu, you've accomplished something truly remarkable in just a few days!" With no one around, Ning Fengya immediately patted Lu Yan on the shoulder and praised him.

Lu Yan rolled his eyes: "Speak quickly if you have something to say."

Then Ning Fengya changed the subject: "Unfortunately, the old guys in the sect don't think highly of you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan frowned and asked Ning Fengya for details.

Ning Fengya also spoke frankly: "The old guys in the sect are unwilling to offend Poison Douluo for your sake."

"Their meaning is that if you can gain the approval of Poison Douluo, then you will be granted the status of a core disciple."

“If you cannot gain the approval of Poison Douluo…” Ning Fengya paused here.

He took out a Supreme Elder Token of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School from his storage soul tool, which was also the Sword Douluo's identity token.

"Then we'll use this token and see if Sword Douluo's influence can protect you."

"If we can save you, you can come back to the sect with me. If not..."

"So what if he's dead? The sect won't risk offending a Title Douluo with the title of Poison for your sake." Ning Fengya's tone was somewhat low, and her voice was weak as she said this.

"But even if they can save me, I'm afraid I'll have to sell myself to the sect for the rest of my life, right?" Lu Yan glanced at the token that seemed to contain some special sharpness, his tone indifferent.

"Sigh!" Ning Fengya sighed, which was her answer to Lu Yan's question.

Then, Ning Fengya changed the subject: "But Brother Lu, I have high hopes for you. I don't believe you would do something you're not sure of."

"The way you're saying it makes it sound like I've known Yan Yan with ulterior motives from the very beginning," Lu Yan said, feigning speechlessness.

"It's just that we happen to hit it off. I never expected our relationship to progress so quickly."

"Really? I don't believe it." Ning Fengya looked at Lu Yan with a meaningful gaze, but couldn't detect anything unusual in his expression.

"Don't believe me if you don't want to." Lu Yan naturally wouldn't reveal his thoughts to anyone.

If you don't keep your plans secret, it can lead to big trouble.

Even if everyone doubted his motives for approaching Dugu Yan, he would never admit it.

These are words that can only be kept to oneself.

Ning Fengya, however, simply chuckled and said nothing more in response to Lu Yan's attitude.

Instead, he mysteriously told Lu Yan about something.

He revealed to Lu Yan that he hadn't done nothing about the attitudes of the old guys in the sect.

Thanks to the exquisite children's clothes that Lu Yan gave him.

Perhaps there will be an unexpected surprise.

Although Ning Fengya remained mysterious and did not reveal any further details.

But Lu Yan quickly made a guess about the general situation.

It must be Ning Rongrong.

In my memory, the other party was not favored by the two Title Douluos entirely because of the awakening of the innate level nine soul power talent.

Instead, from a young age, he was the precious darling of two titled Douluo.

She was pampered like a granddaughter, treated with utmost care and affection.

No wonder Ning Rongrong developed a serious "princess syndrome" in the future.

Born into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, one of the three most powerful and wealthy sects, she is also the sect's most talented heir.

There are also two titled Douluo that his grandfather spoils rotten.

This is far more valuable than Yu Tianheng's.

It's important to know that Yu Tianheng is not the only heir of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan; as far as I can recall, there is also Yu Tianxin.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have arranged for him to come to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy to befriend Dugu Yan; he would have been trained within the sect's own territory.

Dugu Yan only had a Title Douluo as her backer, and that was Dugu Bo, who was regarded as the gatekeeper of Title Douluos.

They had already developed an arrogant and unruly personality, like a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers.

Not to mention Ning Rongrong, who grew up being pampered by two Title Douluos.

From a certain perspective, what princess syndrome? Ning Rongrong's background is even higher than Xue Ye's daughter's.

She's a princess-like person to begin with, so it's perfectly normal for her to have some princess-like quirks.

For Lu Yan, this is a good thing. The more prominent his personality flaws are, the better, which means they are easier to exploit.

Isn't this also one of the purposes behind his casual move to show Ning Fengya the exquisite clothes he wanted to give to his sister?

Lu Yan genuinely wanted to give his sister a gift, but his desire to curry favor with Ning Rongrong through the gift was also a ploy by him.

In retrospect, this seemingly insignificant move might actually come in handy.

After chatting with Ning Fengya for a few more minutes, the two left the quiet reading room.

Ning Fengya got along well with Lu Yan; the sect allowed him to enroll in the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy during this period.

This gave him a lot of free time. After parting ways with Lu Yan, he didn't care about the sect's task of using Lu Yan's connections to befriend Dugu Yan.

He left on his own.

As for Lu Yan, since it was getting late, he wasn't in a hurry to continue reading.

They then found Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, intending to invite them to join them for dinner.

However, Lu Yan was stunned when he saw the two women.

Ye Lingling was sitting in a corner, in the aisle between bookshelves, holding a book and carefully flipping through it.

Dugu Yan, however, rested her head on Ye Lingling's outstretched legs and fell fast asleep.

Ye Lingling's lap pillow seemed to make her sleep extremely comfortably, so much so that even when Lu Yan moved closer, she still showed no sign of wanting to wake up.

Ye Lingling naturally noticed Lu Yan's arrival and wanted to wake Dugu Yan, but Lu Yan made a shushing gesture to her.

So, under Ye Lingling's watchful gaze, Lu Yan crept up to Dugu Yan and squatted down beside her.

He looked left and right, but his gaze finally settled on Ye Lingling's long blue hair.

Lu Yan gestured to Ye Lingling.

Ye Lingling, her cool eyes filled with confusion, picked up a tuft of long hair.

Lu Yan nodded, gesturing for her to use the end of her hair to tease Dugu Yan's handsome, upturned nose.

Ye Lingling understood Lu Yan's meaning, and a hint of interest flashed in her blue eyes, but her hand movements were somewhat hesitant.

In the end, Lu Yan couldn't stand it anymore and snatched the end of Ye Lingling's hair from her hand.

With a mixture of shyness and excitement, Ye Lingling teased Dugu Yan with the end of her hair.

Once, twice.

In her dazed state, Dugu Yan reached out and waved her hand as if trying to shoo away mosquitoes.

But it still showed no signs of waking up.

Lu Yan and Ye Lingling exchanged a glance, seemingly seeing a smile hidden beneath the black veil in the curved eyes of the mute girl.

So, Lu Yan handed the ends of the hair to Ye Lingling.
