Sharingan Reveals Its Might

"To graduate from an advanced Soul Master Academy, one's Soul Power must reach level 30, one must obtain a third soul ring, and become a Soul Elder. There are also limits on both the age of the soul rings and the Soul Master's age. If those standards are not met, one cannot be considered a graduate of an advanced Soul Master Academy. Therefore, anyone who can graduate from one is a genius among geniuses."

After saying that, Old Jack fell silent.

He was only the village chief of a small village. It was already impressive that he knew so much.

That was also why he had been able to become village chief.

All Old Jack could do was pass the basic knowledge he had learned to the two children from his village. As for the rest, they would have to explore it for themselves.

By afternoon, the three of them finally arrived in Nuoding City.

"You two little fellows must work hard at the academy and help each other, understand? When the term ends, Grandpa Jack will come pick you up and take you home." Old Jack stroked his beard and spoke with a kindly expression.

"Mm!"

"Mm."

Tang San and Ye Zhiqiu both answered.

After entering Nuoding City, Ye Zhiqiu and Tang San both looked around curiously.

Ye Zhiqiu had never visited Nuoding City before. In six years, the farthest place he had ever gone was probably the huge rock at the entrance to the village.

Having suddenly arrived in this city, Ye Zhiqiu naturally felt curious and looked around in every direction.

There were quite a few pedestrians coming and going through Nuoding City. The ground was paved with stone bricks, smooth and comfortable to walk on.

On both sides stood rows of buildings resembling the European and American architectural styles from his previous life, which made Ye Zhiqiu complain inwardly.

This was clearly a Chinese Douluo novel, so why had the buildings turned into European-style architecture?

Along the way, since they did not know the roads, the three of them asked passersby for directions several times before finally arriving at the entrance of Nuoding Academy.

Before them stood a towering archway. It was over twenty meters wide and more than ten meters tall, all built from sturdy stone. Beneath it were two iron lattice gates fitted with rollers.

At the center of the archway were four large characters: Nuoding Academy.

The entire place looked quite grand.

Through the iron lattice, they could see winding paths leading into secluded areas. A broad road led directly into the academy, with tall trees planted on both sides and flowers and grass decorating their surroundings.

At a glance, the scenery inside looked pleasant and the environment inviting.

Ye Zhiqiu and Tang San exchanged a glance. They both saw anticipation in the other's eyes.

Although Nuoding Academy was merely a junior Soul Master Academy, every decoration felt perfectly placed without seeming abrupt. It was obvious that professionals had designed and maintained it.

From this alone, one could see the status Spirit Masters held on Douluo Continent.

As the three of them craned their necks at the entrance, they quickly caught the attention of a nearby gatekeeper.

He hurried over in just a few strides, stretched out his hand to block their path, and eyed them as if they were thieves.

"What are you doing? Is this the kind of place country folk like you should come to?"

Although Old Jack had changed into a new set of clothes today and was considered well-dressed in Holy Spirit Village, once he arrived in Nuoding City, he looked completely rustic.

Tang San's clothes had several patches on them, and Ye Zhiqiu's attire was not much better.

The gatekeeper looked at them with disdain.

Old Jack hurriedly bent over with an ingratiating smile. "Little brother, we're from Holy Spirit Village. These two children are Work-Study Students sent by our village this year. Here are their certificates."

After speaking, Old Jack took out the two certificates Su Yuntao had issued from his clothes and handed them over.

"Work-Study Students? And two of them? Heh, can a golden phoenix really come out of a grass nest? You aren't impostors, are you?" The gatekeeper curled his lip and mocked them sarcastically before taking the certificates and looking them over.

"Blue Silver Grass as a spirit? Innate Full Soul Power? Spirit mutation, temporarily unknown? Innate Full Soul Power? Hahaha, are you trying to make me laugh myself to death? What a joke! Two Innate Full Soul Powers from the same grass nest? Couldn't you put more effort into forging certificates? Hahaha." The gatekeeper's face twisted from laughter. He had originally only wanted to make things difficult for them a little. Who would have thought the certificates were actually fake? Even if beaten to death, he would never believe that one village could produce two people with Innate Full Soul Power—one with a Waste Spirit like Blue Silver Grass, and the other with an unknown mutated spirit.

"You—" Old Jack's chest rose and fell with fury as he blew his beard and glared.

Tang San's gaze turned cold as well. This man truly looked down on others like a dog, bullying them far too much. Unconsciously, he slightly raised his right hand. Hidden inside his sleeve was a Silent Sleeve Dart.

Ye Zhiqiu was startled. Little San's killing intent is a little too strong! He hurriedly reached out and pressed Tang San's arm down. If he killed or injured someone here, things would become serious.

"Little San, don't get worked up. I'll handle it," Ye Zhiqiu said softly.

Tang San paused, glanced at Ye Zhiqiu beside him, then nodded slightly.

Ye Zhiqiu flashed his teeth in a grin, revealing two shallow dimples on his cheeks. He lightly shouted at the gatekeeper, who was laughing so hard he could barely breathe, "Dumbass, what the fuck are you laughing at? Look into my eyes."

The gatekeeper flew into a rage upon hearing the first half. This little country brat actually dared to curse him in public? Today, he would teach this child what it meant to respect his elders.

However, when he viciously glared at Ye Zhiqiu, the first thing he saw was a pair of blood-red eyes.

In an instant, the young gatekeeper froze in place, his eyes dull and vacant. He felt as though he had suddenly arrived in a dimly lit hall, where people sang and danced, beautiful women surrounded him, and amid the glittering lights and revelry, he completely lost himself.

Ye Zhiqiu was delighted inwardly. His first use of the Sharingan had succeeded. A simple Illusion Technique had trapped this arrogant gatekeeper.

"Ah Qiu, what did you do?" Tang San stared at the motionless gatekeeper in surprise, his eyes full of confusion.

Old Jack also looked over worriedly. Don't take things too far. This is a Soul Master Academy.

After deactivating the Sharingan, Ye Zhiqiu smiled mysteriously and said to Tang San and Old Jack, "Let me show you a dance full of exotic charm."

After speaking, Ye Zhiqiu looked with great interest at the gatekeeper immersed in the Illusion Technique. "In this dazzling world, why not indulge yourself and dance with the beauty on the stage?" Ye Zhiqiu's voice brimmed with temptation as it slipped into the gatekeeper's ears.

The moment Ye Zhiqiu finished speaking, the gatekeeper's vacant eyes suddenly became fiery. Drool ran from the corner of his mouth as he chuckled foolishly and staggered toward the iron lattice gate behind him.

Then, an unbearable sight unfolded.

He hugged the iron lattice gate, kissing and groping it, twisting his ass wildly as he even began taking off his clothes. It was simply painful to watch.

Before long, many passersby had stopped outside Nuoding Academy to watch, pointing and talking among themselves.

"Well? Pretty good, right?" Ye Zhiqiu grinned wickedly and nudged Tang San beside him with his elbow.

Tang San's face darkened. He suddenly realized that he might not know the friend he had played with for six years at all. This guy was far too devious. He won't suddenly do this to me someday too, will he?

At that thought, Tang San shuddered.
