People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

In the meeting room, everyone took their seats.

After a long while of lively greetings, Su Qian asked Xiao Ling and the others with some curiosity:

"In the blink of an eye, several years have passed. What realm have you reached now? With your outstanding talents, I believe you are about to break through to the Dou Zun realm at least."

As soon as these words were spoken, Su Qian and the others all showed curiosity on their faces, and their eyes turned in the direction of Xiao Ling and the others.

Although they had heard about some of Xiao Ling's deeds in Zhongzhou before and knew that he won the Alchemy Conference, they didn't know much about other more detailed circumstances.

Su Qian is now a five-star Dou Zong expert, but at this moment, he can't detect any aura from Xiao Ling and the others. It is obvious that Xiao Ling and the others' cultivation has far surpassed his.

However, this was not unexpected to him. After all, with the outstanding talents of Xiao Ling and others, it was reasonable for them to have such profound cultivation. Even if Xiao Ling had broken through to the Dou Zun level now, it would not be surprising.

Facing Su Qian's question, Xiao Ling and the others first looked at each other. A smile flashed quietly in their eyes, as if hiding some different meanings.

Seeing this, Su Qian and others had not yet figured out the meaning of their looks, but Xiao Ling cleared his throat and explained with a smile.

"Great Elder, you may not know that when we were in Zhongzhou, we encountered some adventures by chance." Xiao Ling paused for a moment, then continued, "We have all successfully broken through our own cultivation bottlenecks, and now, we have all reached the Dou Zun realm."

Hearing Xiao Ling's words, Su Qian and the others were shocked. Although they had guessed the result before, when they heard the news, they were still shocked.

You know, there are only a handful of Dou Zun masters in the Northwest Continent, and they have not appeared in the Black Horn Region for a long time. Even in the Black Horn Region today, there is no Dou Zun.

The Dou Zun realm is at the same level as the dean who founded Canaan College.

Looking at Xiao Ling and his group in front of them, they are so young, but they have already achieved such achievements that old guys like them can't even dream of. How could this not make Su Qian and others sigh in their hearts again?

They couldn't help but think to themselves that such talent was truly terrifying and amazing.

Su Qian and the others had never thought that Xiao Ling and his friends could reach such a high level at such a young age. For a moment, they were filled with mixed emotions. But soon, they showed a look of relief and pride on their faces. Fortunately, Xiao Ling and his friends all came from Canaan College, which was a great honor for the college.

Canaan Academy has always been proud of cultivating outstanding talents. However, in recent years, although many outstanding disciples have emerged, and there are many excellent students who can break through the Dou Zong realm, there has never been anyone who can reach the Dou Zun realm.

Now that Xiao Ling and his companions have returned and appeared with the cultivation level of Dou Zun, the reputation of the academy in the entire continent will undoubtedly be further enhanced. From now on, when others mention Canaan Academy, they will think more highly of it. Those forces that originally had doubts about the academy may have to reconsider.

"Haha, good, good!" Su Qian was the first to laugh heartily. The laughter echoed in the meeting room, full of heartfelt joy.

"You guys really bring honor to our Canaan Academy. From now on, this academy will be more confident. It is well-deserved to be the number one academy in the Douqi Continent."

Elder Huo also nodded continuously, unable to hide the smile on his face, and echoed:

"That's true. With outstanding disciples like you, we old guys can stand up straighter even when we go out."

Xiao Ling and the others looked at the pleased expressions on Su Qian's faces and couldn't help but smile at each other.

After all, Xiao Ling just casually mentioned that they had broken through to the Dou Zun realm, and did not reveal much of the value contained in it.

You know, Xiao Ling is now already a high-level Dou Zun, and Xiao Yixiang is even more powerful. She has already begun to compress her Dou Qi in preparation for reaching a higher level of Semi-Saint realm.

If Su Qian and the others knew about this, they would be so shocked that they would be unable to recover for a long time.

However, Xiao Ling was not a person who liked to show off. He knew in his heart that even if these things were told out loud, it would not bring any practical benefits other than shocking everyone, so he naturally had no intention of mentioning it in this regard.

"Tsk, what's Dou Zun? You guys make it sound like it's so great." However, Zi Yan was praised by everyone and felt a little flattered. She crossed her arms, raised her chin slightly, and said with a hum, "After I arrived in Zhongzhou, even though I didn't practice hard on weekdays and just ate casually every day, my cultivation level kept rising and I broke through to the eighth level in an instant."

She paused, her eyes revealing a bit of arrogance, and continued: "Besides, it's just a breakthrough to the Dou Zun realm, which is really nothing. Don't forget that Xiao Ling is the champion of the last Alchemy Conference. He has refined an eighth-grade nine-color elixir. With this ability, he is much more powerful than those Dou Zuns. How can he be compared with cultivation alone?"

"Haha, what Zi Yan said makes sense." Elder Huo laughed heartily, his eyes full of approval, and then said,

"Although Dou Zun is already an extremely powerful existence, it is indeed nothing compared to an eighth-grade peak alchemist. Xiao Ling, if you let those outside forces know that our Canaan Academy now has a genuine eighth-grade peak alchemist like you, I'm afraid that all the old forces in the entire Northwest Continent will be unable to sit still and will rush to visit us."

Although Elder Huo's words were somewhat joking, they were not wrong at all. You know, in this Douqi Continent, alchemists have great influence and appeal, and their status is far higher than that of practitioners of the same class.

Xiao Ling now relies on his own identity to travel in Zhongzhou where many powerful people gather. Everyone who sees him has to give him some face, let alone in this northwestern continent.

Here, even if all the Dou Zun masters were gathered together, in terms of the nobility of their status, perhaps none of them could compare to Xiao Ling alone.

However, Su Qian did not pay too much attention to this. He immediately turned his gaze towards Zi Yan and asked softly, "Zi Yan, from what you just said, you should have found your people, right?"

For Su Qian, it was he who brought Zi Yan back to Canaan College from the Monster Mountains, and he had been taking good care of her over the years.

Therefore, he knew very well in his heart how deep Zi Yan's obsession was for her people. It was a desire and concern that was deeply rooted in her heart and difficult for others to understand.

When Zi Yan heard Su Qian's question, the unserious look on her face instantly subsided. She pursed her lips slightly, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she nodded gently and said slowly:

"Well, after returning to Zhongzhou this time, I was taken back by the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. Although... I still didn't get to see my parents, and there were some troubles within the clan. But even so, for me, this is a very good result.

"Haha, it's a good thing to be able to reunite with your people." Su Qian heard what Zi Yan said, and a caring smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth. His eyes were full of gentleness and comfort, and he continued,

"As for your parents, they were not able to take care of you at the beginning. I believe they had many helpless reasons. Moreover, you are so talented now. As long as you continue to improve your strength in the future, you may have the opportunity to meet them again one day."

Zi Yan nodded silently after hearing this. Although she usually didn't have a strong obsession with whether she could see her parents in the future, deep down in her heart, if there was really a chance to meet them, she naturally hoped that such a day would come.

However, when she thought of her father, Zi Yan's little face puffed up unconsciously. Her biological father was the previous Dragon Emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, with super strength at the peak level of a nine-star Dou Sheng. However, he couldn't even take care of his own daughter and left her alone outside for so long. It made her angry just thinking about it.

If she really saw this, Miss Zi Yan would definitely give him a good beating, so that the hateful guy would know the grievances she had felt in her heart all these years.

As she thought about it, Zi Yan's eyes revealed a hint of anger, as if she was already standing in front of her father, preparing to teach him a lesson.

At the same time, in front of the cave of the ancient emperor Natasha, Zhu Kun, who was previously dozing lazily, suddenly felt an inexplicable panic in his heart, as if something big was about to happen.

He became alert instantly and immediately opened his huge golden dragon eyes. There was a golden light flickering in his eyes, but there was a hint of panic.

"Damn it! What was that feeling just now? It actually made me feel fear. It's really inexplicable." Zhu Kun frowned and muttered a few words to himself, his eyes full of confusion and anger.

But after a moment, he transformed all the doubts in his heart into anger towards Tushegudi.

He just snorted coldly, and immediately swung the huge body of the Taixu Ancient Dragon again. The huge tail was wrapped in astonishing power, and it swung fiercely towards the cave of Tushe Ancient Emperor.

"Tuoshe Gudi, you bastard! You actually locked me up here to guard the door for you, making it impossible for me to take care of my daughter. You really deserve to die!"

In the conference room, Xiao Ling and his companions chatted lively with Su Qian and others for a long time.

Most of the time, it was Su Qian and the others who threw questions to Xiao Ling and the others, inquiring with curiosity about what they had seen and heard in Zhongzhou.

You know, Zhongzhou is a place that countless practitioners yearn for. Su Qian and others have never had the opportunity to go there. Now they want to get a good understanding of Zhongzhou through these young people who have walked out of Canaan College.

Xiao Ling and his friends did not hide anything, and picked out some experiences that could be told, and told them vividly.

After this narration, Su Qian and others learned a lot about the situation in Zhongzhou and had a clearer understanding of the situation there.

Xiao Yu and Hu Jia were especially impressed. They listened attentively. It seemed as if little stars were twinkling in their eyes, full of longing.

Obviously, what Xiao Ling and his friends said today has already quietly planted a seed in their hearts. They must go to Zhongzhou in the future to explore the world and experience the unique charm of that magical land for themselves.

Time passes quietly, just like the gurgling stream, without a sound but without a pause. When old friends meet again after a long separation, there are always endless words to say and endless thoughts to express.

Before we knew it, the sky had gradually darkened and the red sun began to slowly set in the west.

The afterglow of the setting sun is like a lively paintbrush, freely spreading across the sky, dyeing the sky into a gorgeous and dreamy picture.

The brilliant colors squeezed in through the gaps between the doors and windows of the conference hall, like a veil or a thin curtain, gently coating everyone with a layer of golden veil.

This warm feeling also brought those who were chatting animatedly back to their senses as if awakened from a dream. They looked outside the hall and realized that the night had quietly arrived and it was almost evening.

"Haha, we old guys are talkative. Once we start talking, we can never stop. Look, such a long time has passed without us noticing."

Su Qian raised his eyes slightly, looked at the picturesque sunset outside the window, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, then he gently shook his head, slowly retracted his gaze, and his eyes fell on Xiao Ling and the others, and then continued,

"By the way, how long do you guys plan to stay at Canaan College this time? Also, Xiao Ling, the courtyard where you guys used to live has been carefully cleaned by the college, so you don't have to worry about having a place to live, so you can just stay there without any worries."

"We should stay at Canaan College for a while. After all, there are still some things that need to be dealt with. Once everything is settled, we will probably leave."

Xiao Xiaoling nodded gently and said softly: "During this period, if the elders need to refine pills, you may come to me. As long as I am free, I will definitely help."

"Haha, it's a blessing for us old guys to have you, the continent's number one alchemist, personally help us refine pills. If this gets out, others will be envious."

Elder Huo's face was full of smiles, and he couldn't help but chuckle and said.

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Old Su is about to go back to the inner courtyard. You two can go back together. I still have to guard the alchemy department of the outer courtyard, so I can't accompany you. But I will come to the inner courtyard from time to time to ask you for advice on alchemy. Don't think that I am annoying you."

After the farewells, Xiao Ling and his group did not stay any longer. After saying goodbye to Elder Huo and the others, they returned to the inner courtyard with Elder Su Qian and several other inner courtyard elders.

Chapter 540 Return to the Inner Courtyard

After bidding farewell to Elder Huo and the others, Xiao Ling and his party followed Elder Su Qian and several other inner courtyard elders and headed towards the place where the griffins were riding.

Those griffins are huge in size, with their fur glowing with a strange luster. They are flying monsters carefully trained by Canaan Academy. They are usually responsible for traveling around the academy and transporting personnel and supplies.

Xiao Ling and others came up and, under Su Qian's guidance, boarded one of the largest griffins in an orderly manner.

With a low roar, the rescue beast spread its wide wings and flapped them slowly. The powerful airflow swept up the surrounding dust, causing the dead branches and leaves on the ground to roll over.

After everyone was seated, it flapped its wings violently, and like an arrow shot from a bow, it flew away towards the depths of the Monster Mountain Range where the inner courtyard was located.

The whistling sound of the wind passed by my ears, and the scenery below quickly receded like a kaleidoscope.

Xiao Ling and others looked down at this familiar yet unfamiliar land, and for a moment, they had a lot of thoughts in their minds.

Looking back to those days, they were still young and immature, and their cultivation was far from as profound as it is now. They also rode on the flying magic beasts trained by Canaan Academy, and embarked on the journey to the inner courtyard with longing and trepidation, starting a brand new life.

At that time, their eyes were full of curiosity about the unknown, and they had endless imagination about the future path of cultivation.

Time flies. In just over ten years, it seems like a lot of changes have happened.

Now as I set foot on this familiar flight path again, scenes from the past surge through my mind like a tide.

Both Canaan College and they themselves have undergone earth-shaking changes.

The college has become more and more profound with the passage of time, and has trained batches of outstanding students, becoming famous far and wide.

And they themselves, through countless experiences and opportunities, have made rapid progress in strength, and the realm that was once out of reach is now within their reach.

The young men who once walked side by side have now grown into strong people who can stand on their own. Looking back on the past, one can't help but sigh at the changes in the world and the passing of time.

As the griffin flew at full speed, it didn't take long before a lush clearing in the woods came into view. This was the only way to the inner courtyard.

The griffin realized that it had reached its destination, and it slowly flapped its huge wings, creating gusts of wind that rustled the branches and leaves of the surrounding trees.

Its body gradually and steadily descended, and its broad feet slowly touched the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust. Even the surrounding grass was slightly bent by the airflow caused by this movement.

After the griffin stopped and firmly rooted itself on the ground, Xiao Ling and the others jumped off its back one after another.

The moment my feet touched the solid ground, a familiar feeling came over me.

Xiao Ling took a deep breath. The fragrance of plants and trees in the air, mixed with the unique scent of the inner courtyard, penetrated into his nostrils. The time he spent practicing in the inner courtyard in the past seemed like it was just yesterday.

Zi Yan landed on the ground with a pair of lively eyes full of curiosity and excitement, and looked around impatiently. Looking at the familiar scenery in front of her, she couldn't help but sigh:

"I have to go back to the inner courtyard in the blink of an eye. I've been away for such a long time, I really miss it!"

This inner courtyard carries too many unforgettable memories for Zi Yan.

For a long time, this place was her world. Every inch of land was filled with her laughter, growth and naturally countless concerns.

More importantly, here she met the most important person in her life.
