Heaven Dou Royal Academy

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy Heaven Dou Royal Academy located Heaven Dou City; it doesn't take long to get there from Dugu Bo Manor.

After all, this was specially prepared by Prince Xue Xing for Dugu Bo, so that Dugu Bo could check on his granddaughter's residence at any time.

Arriving at the location of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy from Dugu Bo's manor, Chen Feng looked around and saw a rather large mountain with a lake at its foot; all of these belonged to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"Surrounded by mountains and water, the scenery here is quite nice," Chen Feng commented.

"After all, it's the Royal Academy; its basic conditions are definitely unmatched by other Academy," Tang San agreed.

"I wonder what the core of this Academy is like," Chen Feng said as he walked into the mountains. "Hopefully, it's not all show and no substance."

That's what they say, but Chen Feng also knows that most of the current members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy are probably rotten to the core, and the real gems are probably only a few people, including the Heaven Dou Royal Team.

The first requirement for admission to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is that students must have a Nobles background; Commoners can forget about joining.

In the Original Work, if it weren't for Qin Ming, Shrek Academy and his group would probably have had a hard time getting in touch with the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Students with outstanding Martial Soul like Ma Hongjun and Oscar would never be accepted by the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Such narrow admission Rules reveal that the decline of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was inevitable.

In the world of fantasy, the idea that talent is everything is a rather narrow view; people with less talent are not necessarily unable to achieve great things.

As it turned out, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was visited by something even more backward than the theory of talent-only, namely the theory of Bloodline- only.

How much can an Academy achieve if its criterion for the Academy Bloodline Nobles?

When Chen Feng was choosing a new employer, he first ruled out the Heaven Dou Royal Academy because, in his view, the Academy had the potential to become a Nobles family from his previous life.

There was a saying in Chen Feng's previous life, "A good job is like AIDS; it can only be spread in three ways."

Sex, mother and child, and blood ties.

This is actually a characteristic of powerful clans, and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy perfectly exemplifies this.

Of course, this refers to the Nobles of the Jin Dynasty, and has no other meaning or metaphor.

Founded by the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire, and with the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire serving as the dean of each successive Academy, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's rule of only admitting descendants of Nobles, to some extent reflects the Heaven Dou Empire's backwardness in talent selection and promotion.

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy is clearly the Heaven Dou Empire's talent pool. If it is full of Nobles descendants and there is no fresh blood, it means that the Heaven Dou Empire has been basically controlled by Nobles clans.

And judging from the history of his past life that Chen Feng knew, such countries usually did not have a good ending.

A better outcome would be a split, such as the Three Families Partition Jin; a worse outcome would be the decline of national power due to aristocratic politics, ultimately leading to a wave of foreign invasions and the loss of power, such as the Five Barbarians' Uprising.

Judging from the fate of the Heaven Dou Empire, it was relatively lucky. It only split into two countries, but it managed to withstand the invasion of the Sun Moon Continent and was not wiped out in one fell swoop.

In reality, Chen Feng had never held the Heaven Dou Empire in high regard. How could he possibly govern a country well with a bunch of insignificant clans?

Therefore, Chen Feng's initial plan was to develop his career in the Star Luo Empire, which was his purpose in contacting Dai Mubai.

However, he later discovered that he was actually a Backwave with enough resources to build his own power, which is why he chose Shrek Academy, which was relatively untapped.

Of course, it's Nine-Headed Serpent Academy now.

The current Nine-Headed Serpent Academy, in terms of its formation, actually belongs to the Heaven Dou Empire.

However, Chen Feng had no intention of necessarily supporting the Heaven Dou Empire. He wanted to see if the Heavenly Heaven Dou Empire Heaven Dou Empire was up to par and to assess the competence of its two heirs, one real and one fake.

If their skills are decent, then Chen Feng will stay here for now. But if both of them are hopeless, then Chen Feng will have to make some other plans.

You can't just hang yourself on a crooked tree.

Anyway, he has connections in the Star Luo Empire. Having a backup plan means having a way out and he can switch sides at any time.

Chen Feng pondered as he and Tang San climbed the mountain, but they encountered trouble shortly afterward.

"Hey, what are you two doing here? Don't you know this is the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?" Nearly ten young Soul Master, around eighteen or nineteen years old, blocked Chen Feng and his companion's path.

Judging from their pale yellow school uniforms, they should be students of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, a group of privileged second-generation rich kids.

Chen Feng looked at the group of carefree young men in front of him with a strange expression, because he remembered that in the Original Work, the Shrek Academy group had just entered the mountains when they encountered a group blocking their way.

He was now blocked from his path. Could it be that the Academy had a group of people loitering around the area specifically to guard the gates of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?

"Hey! I'm asking you a question, didn't you hear me?" Seeing Chen Feng's strange expression but silence, the leader of this group of young Soul Master immediately became angry.

He had never met anyone who ignored him like this before.

"We're here to look for someone," Chen Feng finally spoke.

"Looking for someone?" The leading youth sized up Chen Feng and his companion, then sneered, "You two beggars from who-knows-where actually dare to come to our Royal Academy looking for someone? That's hilarious, hahaha."

The young people around them burst into laughter and began to comment on Chen Feng and his companion.

Both Chen Feng and Tang San dressed rather simply. Tang San did so because he couldn't afford nice clothes, while Chen Feng didn't care much about such things; he only cared about being comfortable.

He prefers ordinary casual wear to those flashy clothes that are cumbersome to wear.

However, given Chen Feng and Tang San's appearances, they actually look good in any clothes.

After traveling for several days, they did look somewhat travel-worn, but in the words of the young leader, they were exaggerated to look like beggars.

Chen Feng wasn't angry at the sarcasm from the people opposite him; he simply smiled and sized up the young man in the lead.

If he encountered the same group as the Shrek Seven Devils from the Original Work, then the young man leading them should be none other than Xue Beng, the fourth prince of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Judging from the Original Work and the Manga, he is a cunning and patient character, much like Gou Jian.

Of course, Gou Jian's ability to endure was second to none in history, even surpassing that of the old tortoise Sima Yi, and his skill in dealing with Xue Beng was far inferior.

Such people have one thing in common: they are cunning, good at pretending and acting, have excellent political skills, and are ruthless and have no sense of loyalty or affection, making it difficult to see their true colors.

From a psychological perspective, living in a dangerous environment for a long time can lead to a gloomy and extreme personality.

However, such people also have an advantage: they are very pragmatic, able to recognize their own situation, and have excellent patience.

There have been many such people in history, such as Ying Zheng, Liu Heng, Liu Che, Liu Bingyi, Yang Guang, and Li Zhi, and so on.

From this perspective, the Old Liu was quite powerful; most emperors possessed unique skills.

From a national perspective, such a person is qualified to be an emperor because they are intelligent enough and have excellent political skills. As long as they don't go astray, they are a qualified and wise ruler.

If one goes astray, then Yang Guang is a prime example.

In Chen Feng's view, Xue Beng could actually be considered as an alternative. Although such a person could not become a friend, at least in terms of ability, they met the requirements.

Therefore, he was not emotionally affected by the Xue Beng's sarcastic remarks; he knew it was all an act.

It's about saving your life, it's not shameful.

Chen Feng's attitude surprised Xue Beng, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and reverted to his annoying, spoiled demeanor.

Hey! You two beggars, didn't you hear what I just said? This isn't a place for you, get out of here!

Tang San narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he didn't argue with people based on personal feelings, he was naturally very unhappy to be insulted like this.

However, Chen Feng remained silent, so he made no move.

Chen Feng maintained his smile and said:

"Aren't you going to ask me who I'm looking for? What if it's someone you can't afford to offend? Aren't you afraid?"

"We can't afford to offend him?" A young man opposite him laughed loudly. "Do you know who this person in front of you is? He is the Fourth Your Highness of the Heaven Dou Empire. This entire Heaven Dou Royal Academy belongs to His Your Highness. There is no one here whom His Your Highness cannot afford to offend."

"That's right, how dare a beggar spout nonsense here, saying we can't afford to offend him? He should take a good look at himself." A young man nearby chimed in.

A smug smile appeared on Xue Beng's face; he was clearly pleased with the flattery.

"I'm looking for Senior Poison Douluo," Chen Feng said calmly.

The youths' laughter stopped abruptly, and Xue Beng's expression stiffened for a moment.

"What, what a joke! You think you can just go find Poison Douluo Poison Douluo that? Beggars love to spout nonsense." A young man seemed to feel embarrassed for having been frightened earlier, and now he appeared rather timid.

Chen Feng completely ignored him, and simply looked at the Xue Beng and said:

"Your Highness, could you please allow us to go in and find someone? Or could you please inform Senior Poison Douluo for us?"

Xue Beng asked, "How did you know Poison Douluo was here?"

"Of course, it was my senior who told me," Chen Feng said.

After a slight hesitation, Xue Beng said to one of his Follower:

"Go and fetch Dugu Yan."

He was now about 80% convinced by Chen Feng's words, because Poison Douluo always acted alone, and few people knew his whereabouts, let alone that he had disappeared for several years and had only recently returned.

If you don't know him well enough, you wouldn't even know he's back.

Even Xue Beng only recently learned of Poison Douluo's return, but he didn't know if Poison Douluo was currently at the Academy, let alone anyone else.

Therefore, the only option was to ask Dugu Yan to come and identify the person.

But the young man who had been given the Xue Beng command looked dejected and said:

"Your Highness, I'm afraid Dugu Yan will beat me up."

"This is important business, what's there to be afraid of? Go on!" Xue Beng said irritably.

There's a story behind this: when Dugu Yan first came to the Academy, no one knew her background, so some people flirted with her because she was pretty.

After all, the Academy is full of rich kids who have always treated Tian and the Second Brother as second-in-command, and are used to being lawless.

The surname Dugu was not well-known among the Nobles, so others assumed that Dugu Yan had an ordinary background and it was not surprising that she would do such a harassing thing.

But Dugu Yan was not someone to be trifled with. Not only was she exceptionally talented, but she also had a grandfather who was Titled Douluo. With her background, she wasn't afraid of the young masters in the Academy at all, so she didn't hesitate to beat up those who harassed her.

After these people resorted to their traditional method of calling their parents, Dugu Yan also brought in her grandfather, and from then on, no one in the Academy dared to mess with her.

The young man, forced by the Xue Beng, left in tears, while the rest stared at each other blankly.

Although they were spoiled brats, they weren't entirely stupid. Judging from the current situation, these two beggar-like guys actually seemed to know Poison Douluo.

But they had just been mocking and sarcastic towards these two people; hadn't they completely offended them?

Thinking about this makes many people feel their calves cramp.

Poison Douluo's reputation is still very intimidating. Putting aside his strength as Titled Douluo, his unpredictable and bizarre poison skills are enough to make people wary.

So after hesitating for a while, some people began to bid farewell to the Xue Beng.

"Your Highness, I suddenly have a stomachache. May I go back first?"

"Your Highness, my stomach hurts too."

"Your Highness, I forgot to close the door when I came out..."

The reasons were varied and numerous, and Xue Beng felt a headache coming on after hearing them.

These people wanted to run, and he wanted to run too, but the problem was he couldn't, because he had already left his name, and those two people must have remembered it.

But he also needs to take care of these Follower, otherwise he won't have anyone to follow him in the future, and then how can he continue being a playboy?

"If you have something to do, then you should all leave," Xue Beng sighed.

Upon hearing this, the others hurriedly slipped away, and soon only three people remained.

"Isn't Your Highness leaving?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.

"What is your relationship with Poison Douluo?" Xue Beng asked in return.

"Your Highness, guess," Chen Feng said with a smile.

Xue Beng hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself. Chen Feng thought he might want to curse.

"Speaking of which, does Your Highness often ambush people here?" Chen Feng asked again.

"I come here every now and then, just to keep those Mud Legs out of the way and dirty the Academy," Xue Beng said calmly.

"Mud Legs?" Chen Feng raised an eyebrow. "His Your Highness seems to look down on Commoners."

"They're useless, why should I care about them?" Xue Beng said impatiently.

"I see." A hint of disappointment flashed in Chen Feng's eyes.
