Hearing the voices, Xu Yichen and Ling Xi walked to the entrance and saw three people.
The man in the middle looked refined and gentle. His pristine white robe was spotless, and he appeared to be in his forties. His gaze was mild, and no matter how one looked at him, he seemed like an ordinary person. His smooth black hair draped down his back.
The man on the right had a gaunt face, shriveled muscles and skin, and deeply sunken eye sockets. He was not the type with explosively bulging muscles, but his skeletal frame was astonishingly large, as though his clothes were entirely supported by his bones. He was also exceptionally tall, standing over two meters.
On the left stood an elderly man with white hair and beard. His long silver hair was neatly combed behind his back, and his features were ancient and simple, yet his face was as delicate as a baby's. His expression was indifferent, and his eyes seemed unable to see anything around him. Simply standing there, he exuded an aura of unmatched supremacy.
The moment he saw the three of them, Xu Yichen already knew who they were.
"So it's Sect Master Ning. I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly."
"Kid, hurry up and let us in. What exactly is this thing? We can't break it no matter what."
Gu Rong knocked on the barrier over the gate, sending ripples across its surface. He was rather speechless.
Just when had this Angel Academy appeared? Even the thing at its entrance was so strange. A punch that could instantly kill a Soul Douluo was completely useless against this barrier.
"Alright."
Xu Yichen tossed them three temporary Soul Tool access cards.
"With these Soul Tools, you'll be able to enter."
"Soul Tools?"
Ning Fengzhi and the other two were full of confusion. To them, Soul Tools were merely items used for storing objects.
Holding the access card Soul Tools, the three of them walked inside.
The moment they entered, they sensed how different Angel Academy was.
"This place is filled with spiritual energy."
Chen Xin sighed with emotion. If he were allowed to, he too wanted to stay here. Perhaps his strength could even advance further.
"It truly is a fine place."
"Kid, where's our Rongrong?"
Gu Rong asked in a hoarse voice.
"How presumptuous! Is that any way to address our director? We let it slide before, but I didn't expect you to be so tactless!"
Ling Xi placed a Sword of Blazing Flame directly against Gu Rong's neck.
This scene stunned Ning Fengzhi and the other two, especially Chen Xin. Even his indifferent expression vanished.
Ling Xi was incredibly fast, and her presence carried a faint sword intent. When Chen Xin looked at her, his eyes became somewhat fervent. In his eyes, Ling Xi was also an extremely powerful swordsman.
"Director Xu, is this how Angel Academy treats its guests?"
Ning Fengzhi asked in a deep voice.
"First, you came uninvited. Second, I am the director of Angel Academy. Although I am not as powerful as you, we are equals. We are not close enough for you to address me so casually, so please call me Director Xu!"
The corners of Xu Yichen's lips curled upward slightly. He fully approved of Ling Xi's actions. Ning Rongrong was not even his woman yet, and even if she were, he was not some bootlicker. Why should he accommodate them because of her?
"Very well. I apologize on Bone Uncle's behalf."
"Fengzhi."
Gu Rong looked rather embarrassed as he watched Ning Fengzhi bow. This was all his fault. In his eyes, Xu Yichen was merely a young child, and he had forgotten that he was the director of Angel Academy.
Angel Academy was a force that possessed a Titled Douluo. Any force with a Titled Douluo deserved his respect.
"Mm."
Xu Yichen nodded, and Ling Xi withdrew her Sword of Blazing Flame.
"Come on. I'll show you around Angel Academy. I've taken very good care of Rongrong."
Ling Xi pursed her lips. He really had taken good care of her—he had nearly taken that care all the way to the bed.
"Hiss, I never expected Angel Academy to be so luxurious. It's not much worse than our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
"Mm, it's alright."
Xu Yichen remained calm, leaving Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi speechless. What did he mean, it was alright? On the Douluo Continent, aside from Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, there might not be another place this luxurious.
Not even the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Imperial Families could compare.
"Where's Rongrong?"
"She should be cultivating in the Gravity Chamber."
"The Gravity Chamber?"
"Yes. It's a special Soul Tool that can generate gravity."
"A special Soul Tool, like the one at the entrance?"
Ning Fengzhi was interested. Even he was seeing such a Soul Tool for the first time.
"Of course. The one at the entrance is a defensive Soul Tool. Without Angel Academy's exclusive Soul Tool, no one can enter, and its defenses are extremely strong. Even if Qian Daoliu came, he wouldn't be able to break it."
Xu Yichen was extremely confident. Although Qian Daoliu possessed Angel Divine Power, he was not a god!
"Hiss! Really?"
The three of them were stunned. Qian Daoliu was the strongest person on Douluo Continent—a level ninety-nine Limit Douluo—and even he could not break it? This defensive Soul Tool was absurd.
"Of course it's true. This is a level-nine Soul Tool, only one step away from a level-ten Soul Tool."
Although level-nine Soul Tools corresponded only to Titled Douluo and Super Douluo, this one had been created by the system. Its materials were all top-grade, so it could be considered a half-step level-ten Soul Tool.
"Is this Soul Tool for sale?"
Ning Fengzhi stared intensely at Xu Yichen, his eyes practically spelling out two words: I want it!
If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had Soul Tools like this, they would have nothing to fear.
"As for this one, it requires far too many materials. Besides, the Titled Douluo capable of making it has not yet come out of seclusion. This is a half-step level-ten Soul Tool, and only a level-ten Soul Engineer can create one."
Afraid they would not understand, Xu Yichen also explained the ranks of Soul Tools and Soul Engineers.
"So a level-ten Soul Engineer is a Limit Douluo?"
"Mm."
Ning Fengzhi and the other two exchanged looks. They had originally assumed Angel Academy had, at most, one or two Titled Douluo. It seemed they had severely underestimated them. There might be more than just one or two Titled Douluo—there might even be a Limit Douluo.
Of course, they would not believe it based solely on Xu Yichen's words.
At the very least, they needed to see the person in question.
Just as the five of them arrived at the Gravity Chamber, Ning Rongrong and the others came out of the Gravity Chamber.
"Wow! Dad, Sword Grandpa, Bone Grandpa, why are you here?"
When Ning Rongrong saw them, she hurried over.
"We came to see you. You ran away from home, and we haven't seen you in so long."
"Hehe, Bone Grandpa, I'm doing great here. I'm already level forty-two."
Ning Rongrong said as she hugged Gu Rong's arm and shook it.
"What?!"
The three of them were shocked. Chen Xin quickly sensed Ning Rongrong's Soul Power.
"She really is level forty-two, and her Soul Power is extremely solid—more solid than even mine."
Hearing Chen Xin say that, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong were dumbfounded. How long had it been? Had it even been half a year?
She had directly gained nearly twenty levels. Ridiculous!
