Balak Kingdom.
Suotuo City.
"Ling Xi, do you think I'll be able to recruit any students?"
"Don't worry, Dean. Although our Angel Academy has only just begun, what we possess is beyond comparison with other academies."
"That's true."
Xu Yichen strolled along the streets of Suotuo City. It was not as bustling as Heaven Dou City, but it was still quite decent.
As he traveled, the system issued its first mission.
Recruit one student.
It counted as a beginner's mission.
"Hmm?"
Xu Yichen looked toward the front right and spotted a woman in a long white dress. Her skin was snow-white, her expression cold, and her figure exceptionally voluptuous.
"That's outrageous. At least an F cup, right?"
Ling Xi lowered her head to look at herself and felt a little inferior.
"Ahem, Ling Xi, let's go take a look."
"Does the Dean like them big?"
"Huh? No, no. I just want to see whether she's the person we need."
Seeing Ling Xi's somewhat pitiful expression, Xu Yichen told a well-intentioned lie.
After all, who didn't like them big?
Xu Yichen slowly approached the woman.
Her long black hair draped over her shoulders, her skin was fair, and she possessed an extraordinarily full, fiery figure that did not match her age.
Her expression was indifferent, a coldness that came from the depths of her heart. There was not even a trace of life in her black eyes, clashing somewhat with her originally beautiful face. Her limbs were slender and well-proportioned, and an icy, deathly stillness radiated from her, making it difficult for others to adapt.
"Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?"
The woman took a step back, her face calm as her delicate brows knitted slightly.
Hearing that cold voice, Xu Yichen felt that he had found the right person.
"What's your name?"
"Zhu Zhuqing."
Upon hearing that, Xu Yichen rubbed his cheek, feeling rather pleased. The moment he arrived in Suotuo City, he had found one of his targets.
"Your surname is Zhu. You wouldn't happen to be from the Zhu Clan of the Star Luo Empire, would you?"
"Who exactly are you?!"
Zhu Zhuqing assumed a fighting stance.
"Don't be nervous. I'm not a bad person. After all, if we were bad people, you wouldn't have had any chance to escape."
Xu Yichen waved a hand. Ling Xi, standing beside him, released a trace of pressure, making Zhu Zhuqing shudder all over as though she had fallen into an ice cellar. A bead of cold sweat rolled down her forehead.
Terrifying!
Such terrifying strength. She was probably at least a Soul Douluo.
"See? We bear you no ill will."
"Then what do you want?"
Zhu Zhuqing let out a breath and asked.
"Do you want to become stronger? Do you want to control your own fate?"
At that moment, Xu Yichen was like a demon, slowly tempting Zhu Zhuqing.
"You..."
There was some confusion in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, but it was swiftly replaced by resolve—a resolve stronger than ever before.
"I want to become stronger. I want freedom. I want to control my own fate."
The Zhu Clan and the Dai Clan had intermarried for generations. Bound by their clan rules, they had to compete for the right to inherit the throne. Those who lost would be killed or imprisoned to prevent internal clan strife.
It was simply too cruel.
To avoid such a fate, one needed great power. In this world where strength reigned supreme, as long as one possessed power strong enough to destroy everything, one could create the rules.
"Very good. Would you like to join our Angel Academy?"
"Angel Academy?"
"Yes. Although our academy has only just been established, it is extremely powerful. Look at Ling Xi—she's even a Titled Douluo."
"A Titled Douluo!"
Zhu Zhuqing was startled. She had not expected this golden-haired beauty to be a Titled Douluo, and a female one at that.
"That's right. If you join our Angel Academy, you'll receive guidance from a Titled Douluo. We can also transform your Martial Soul, and give you one thousand Gold Soul Coins every month."
Hearing those benefits, Zhu Zhuqing's eye twitched. Was he recruiting students or ancestors?
This was the first time she had heard of an academy paying students to enroll.
"What does transforming a Martial Soul mean?"
Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat confused.
"It's like this. The students and teachers of our Angel Academy all possess Angel Martial Souls. But you know how rare Angel Martial Souls are; perhaps only the Qian Clan of Spirit Hall possesses them. So we invented a medicinal pill that can transform your Martial Soul into an Angel Martial Soul once you take it."
"Your Martial Soul is the Hell Spirit Cat, right? It will definitely become stronger after the transformation."
To recruit Zhu Zhuqing, Xu Yichen's lies came easily.
Still, the pills had all been given to him by the system, and only he had them. That counted as his invention, so there was no problem.
"There's actually such a pill!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's icy expression shattered, and her face filled with shock.
"Of course. So, how about it? Would you like to join our Angel Academy?"
"I... I still have something to do. Can you give me a few days?"
Zhu Zhuqing was tempted. If her Martial Soul was no longer the Hell Spirit Cat, she would not be able to perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with the Evil Eye White Tiger. That way, she would no longer have anything to do with Dai Mubai.
A coward who ran away like that was truly impossible to like.
"You want to find Dai Mubai?"
"You know?"
"There are many things I know. Someone like Dai Mubai isn't a good person. He abandoned you and left alone back then; he's a coward. And Dai Mubai has been in Suotuo City for so many years. You don't think he's been diligently cultivating all this time, do you?"
"There's never a shortage of women around Dai Mubai every day. Who knows how many women he's slept with over the years?"
Xu Yichen snorted. Dai Mubai, you can't handle this little wildcat. I'll do it instead.
Besides, Dai Mubai really was not a good person.
"But I still want to see for myself."
Although Zhu Zhuqing was disappointed after hearing about Dai Mubai's actions, she still wanted to see him with her own eyes.
"Fine, I'll take you there. Dai Mubai might be in Suotuo City today."
"Okay!"
Zhu Zhuqing followed alongside Xu Yichen as he slowly headed toward the Rose Hotel.
Today was Tang San and Dai Mubai's first meeting. He could not miss such a grand scene.
As for Xiao Wu, he could deal with her later. After all, she had six years of feelings for Tang San, and she could not be won over in a short time.
He only needed to shatter the feelings between them.
The three arrived before a rather distinctive hotel.
The hotel was three stories tall. Although it did not look very large, its decor was quite nice. Everything was rose-red, and the entire hotel resembled a rose, making it especially eye-catching.
"This is the Rose Hotel, a hotel for couples. Dai Mubai should be inside."
As he spoke, Xu Yichen observed Zhu Zhuqing's expression. Yet she remained as cold as usual. Aside from a slight shift in her eyes, there was no other reaction.
The three entered the Rose Hotel and saw one man with two women. The man had his arms around the women's shoulders. The women looked seventeen or eighteen, with slender figures and similar appearances; they were a pair of twins.
Dai Mubai stood about 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders. His handsome face carried a hint of toughness, and his long golden hair fell down his back almost to his waist. His eyes were sinister, each with double pupils. His deep blue gaze carried a chill from the depths of his heart, and wicked glints flickered when his eyes half-opened and closed.
Before them stood another man and woman.
