Frustrated by His Failure to Live Up to Expectations

"There are always some unimaginable geniuses in the world that we cannot ignore," Zhong Dingxiu said. "Zhou Qing is a genius from humble beginnings."

"Is he really a commoner?"

Dai Weisi was puzzled.

"Your His Royal Highness the Prince, your experience is still relatively limited."

Zhong Dingxiu sighed and offered his explanation, "Even if his Innate Soul Power is zero, he is quick-witted. If he has a family or sect behind him, would they let him out? They are not fools! And I have not sensed any powerful figures hidden in Nuoding City at all."

"I see!" Dai Weisi suddenly realized, and then Bowing Body. "Thank you for your guidance, Elder."

"No need for that. As the Leading Elder, this is my duty." Zhong Dingxiu's bias was obvious, and he chose Dai Weisi, but on the surface, he needed to be fair and impartial. So he said to the rest of the Star Luo Royal Academy Team, "You should also think more about this in the future. Only in this way can the Star Luo Royal Academy Team achieve perfect teamwork."

"Thank you for your guidance, Elder!"

The others unanimously agreed, and since they had joined the Star Luo Royal Academy Team, they were already naturally on Dai Weisi's side.

"Elder, does that mean we can subdue Zhou Qing later?" Zhu Zhuyun asked.

"We can give it a try, but he might not agree. Geniuses are always proud," Zhong Dingxiu said slowly. "If he is unwilling, we can't force him to join openly. However, I believe he should have some goodwill towards the Star Luo Empire."

Where does the good impression come from?

It was all because of Zhu Zhuqing.

Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun exchanged a glance, having also considered this possibility.

However, neither of them took advantage of Zhu Zhuqing's ideas, but if possible, neither of them wanted their younger brother or sister to experience such a cruel competition.

However, the competitive dynamics of the Star Luo Empire are not something they can change at present...

Dai Mubai and Dai Weisi thought they were hopeless, but Qingzhu Zhu might have a chance. Moreover, if she could form a deep friendship with Zhou Qing Zhou Qing and get him to join the Star Luo Empire in the future, it might make the empire's management policies more perfect and comprehensive.

Now, Zhou Qing is only six years old, and before he has awakened his Martial Soul or released his Soul Ring, he can already contend with two Soul Grandmaster and, with the help of his teammates, defeat them.

This proves that his combat ability is not bad. At least Dai Weisi felt that if he were at the same level as him, he should be able to fight him for three hundred rounds without being at a disadvantage.

All major powers will treat ordinary geniuses with preferential treatment.

The new Soul Master class system was proposed by him, allowing a team whose members had never experienced any team battles and even lacked teamwork to form an effective fighting force.

This proves that he is quick-witted, and he will surely become more experienced as he gets older.

If he were to take command of the army, it might become more organized and stronger, making the conquest of the Heaven Dou Empire much easier.

And suppressing the Spirit Hall...

What makes the Spirit Hall most feared is its number of Titled Douluo.

As for Zhou Qing and his friends, Tang San and Xiao Wu, although their Martial Soul types are not very good, their Innate Full Soul Power proves that their Martial Soul quality is not low and they all have the potential to become Titled Douluo. If they can all be recruited into the Star Luo Empire, the Star Luo Empire will have at least three Titled Douluo- level powerhouses in the future, and he and Zhu Zhuyun will also have the potential to become Titled Douluo.

Thus, the Star Luo Empire would have five titled experts who could potentially rival the Spirit Hall.

Dai Weisi knew perfectly well that only substantial incentives could persuade his father's generation to concede on the rules of the succession race...

Where is Dai Mubai?

Dai Weisi looked around and, not seeing Dai Mubai, asked the others.

"I don't know, I think they went out to play."

Some team members saw Dai Mubai leave the Xiao Manor earlier.

"That playboy, he'll never amount to anything!"

Dai Weisi's face was extremely gloomy.

Avoiding competition?

Everyone present, even the nobles and officials from Star Luo City who had contact with Dai Mubai, could see what he was thinking, but no one thought he would run away at such a young age.

At a mere eight years old, his Soul Power is only level nineteen; he's not even Soul Grandmaster!

Therefore, in Dai Weisi's eyes, the only thing that could be going out to find women to have fun with is that the boy is only eight years old, but he has already been through a lot of women.

Although he had experienced the pleasures of sex when he was eight or nine years old out of curiosity, he had been restraining himself ever since he met Zhu Zhuyun and they got engaged.

But what about Dai Mubai?

Even after becoming engaged to Zhu Zhuqing, he continued to do as he pleased, finding pleasure in women, and every maidservant who served him had been violated by him.

This is also the fundamental reason why the vast majority of officials in the court do not have a high opinion of Dai Mubai.

to be honest.

Dai Weisi, as the older brother, was also somewhat disappointed in him—he wanted his son to behave this way so that he could relax and secretly hone his skills, and then surprise everyone with a final, fatal blow, which wasn't a bad idea.

Dai Weisi knew very well that Dai Mubai was venting his frustrations. He felt that he was older, had higher Soul Power, and more Soul Skill than Dai Mubai, so he couldn't beat him and began to give up on himself from the bottom of his heart.

In today's first match of the first round, he and Zhu Zhuyun provoked Dai Mubai with words, hoping that he would feel ashamed and then be brave, otherwise he would not be able to keep his fiancée.

And now, he really can't save it!

"That's fine, Dai Mubai. If you really do run away in the future, then when we both come of age, Zhou Qing will have shown even more talent and ability. I'll then have enough reason to persuade Father Emperor to protect Zhu Zhuqing. This is also so that the Star Luo Empire can have one more Titled Douluo, or even three. Anyway, in the eyes of the powerful and wealthy in Star Luo City Titled Douluo, you're already a joke."

Dai Weisi thought to himself, completely disappointed in Dai Mubai.

At this moment, Dai Mubai was completely unaware that Dai Weisi's expectations of him had been lowered again and again. However, instead of venting his anger on the young woman in Nuoding City as Dai Weisi had imagined, he inquired about Team Eighteen and found the Nuoding Guild.

"Cheers!"

Zhou Qing and the others were still celebrating: []~(￣▽￣)~*

Although Zhou Qing had ordered Qingzhu Zhu not to drink Fruit Wine, amidst the clinking of glasses, she took advantage of Zhou Qing's inattention to pick up Romantina's glass and take a small sip of the remaining strong liquor.

"Cough!"

Qingzhu Zhu coughed immediately, her cheeks flushed red, and she swayed, collapsing onto Zhou Qing's lap beside her.

"Damn it, I told you not to drink Fruit Wine, so you're drinking hard liquor?"

Zhou Qing helped her up and tried to lean her against the seat, but she instinctively grabbed his arm and wouldn't let go, murmuring, "Don't let go of me!"

"Haha, she's got you hooked!" Xiao Wu laughed upon seeing this, but perhaps because she'd drunk too much Fruit Wine, her eyes widened, and she vomited a large puddle of yellowish-green liquid on the ground...
