Leaving Nuoding Academy

After the brief shock, Director Su came back to his senses and said with some emotion, "You've already reached two rings. In that case, it really is time for you to leave.

But if you're applying to an Advanced Soul Master Academy, then the recommendation letters from the dean and me won't be of much use. Still, given your current situation, you should be able to enroll even without one."

Suddenly, Director Su changed the subject. "By the way, which Advanced Soul Master Academy are you planning to join? Given your circumstances, I think Blue Tyrant Academy would be a good choice. I heard they only accept commoner students, and that one of the Upper Three Sects, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, seems to support them from behind the scenes."

"I haven't decided on a specific academy yet."

Facing Director Su's question, Mo Hui shook his head and replied, "But there are two academies I'm particularly interested in. One is Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and the other is Godwind Academy. As for which Advanced Soul Master Academy I'll join, I'll have to see them in person before making a decision."

Heaven Dou Royal Academy possessed the best Mimicry Cultivation Grounds of all Advanced Soul Master Academies, which could greatly increase Mo Hui's cultivation speed.

Moreover, Heaven Dou Royal Academy had abundant funding and rich resources. The knowledge of martial souls in its library should be the most extensive and comprehensive that Mo Hui could access, aside from forces like Spirit Hall and the Upper Three Sects. It was currently the best place for him to study.

Godwind Academy, on the other hand, specialized in researching wind attributes. Though it might not rival Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the breadth of its martial soul knowledge, it was likely the strongest on the entire continent in the field of wind-attribute martial souls.

If Mo Hui joined Godwind Academy, Pidgey might receive the best training and complete an evolution after obtaining its next soul ring.

"Heaven Dou Royal Academy and Godwind Academy?"

Director Su was slightly taken aback before saying, "Godwind Academy should be manageable. Although your Pidgey's Innate Soul Power is a bit low, it has a wind attribute, so getting in won't be difficult. But most of the students at Heaven Dou Royal Academy are nobles. Though they also accept talented commoners, you might be looked down on and bullied if you go there."

As a level thirty-nine Soul Elder, Director Su naturally held a title of nobility. Though he was only a minor baron, he knew exactly what those noble children were like.

"That's why I need to see for myself. Only by understanding the real situation can I make a decision," Mo Hui replied with a smile.

Soon, with Director Su's help, Mo Hui's graduation application was smoothly approved.

However, Mo Hui did not leave immediately. Instead, he went to see Mo Hen.

"Ah... Xiao Hui, have you finally decided to leave?"

Hearing that Mo Hui was leaving, Mo Hen let out a sigh.

Nuoding City was ultimately too small, while his nephew was so outstanding. He truly needed to venture out into the wider world. Continuing to remain in Nuoding City would only limit Mo Hui's future.

"You're leaving, and your uncle doesn't have much to give you. Take these one hundred Gold Soul Coins as travel expenses."

As he spoke, Mo Hen took out a pouch from an exquisite box and handed it to Mo Hui.

Mo Hui did not refuse. It was his uncle's goodwill, after all. He could repay him many times over in the future.

After leaving Mo Hen's residence, Mo Hui returned to Dorm 7 and began packing his things. By chance, Tang San and Xiao Wu returned together from outside at that moment. Seeing Mo Hui packing his luggage, they found it rather strange.

After a moment, Tang San was the first to lose patience and ask, "Mo Hui, where are you going?"

"I've already graduated. I'm preparing to attend an Advanced Soul Master Academy," Mo Hui answered casually.

"You graduated early?"

Tang San froze slightly, his mind somewhat dazed.

Although Mo Hui had used Xiao Wu as a shield, she could not block Tang San forever. Thus, Tang San still challenged Mo Hui from time to time.

But how could Tang San's laughable Blue Silver Entanglement possibly defeat Mo Hui's Air Blade? Every time he used it, Mo Hui severed it with a wind blade, so Tang San's challenges basically always ended in failure.

Yet Tang San was like one of those roly-poly toys: the more he lost, the harder he fought. Even Mo Hui had to acknowledge his perseverance.

After a while, unable to bear Tang San's disturbances any longer, Mo Hui finally "accidentally" lost to Tang San one time. At last, Mo Hui got some peace and could cultivate in tranquility.

Mo Hui did not have many belongings, mainly various notes on martial soul knowledge, so he finished packing before long.

Shouldering the backpack full of notes, Mo Hui said to Tang San and Xiao Wu, who were present, "I don't want the rest of those things. Take them if you want them. If they're in the way, just throw them out."

Mo Hui was mainly saying this to the others in Dorm 7. After all, Tang San and Xiao Wu were both two-ring Soul Grand Masters who received a monthly allowance of ten Gold Soul Coins, so they naturally would not need his little things.

However, among the things Mo Hui left behind were some important items: his experiences with Soul Master cultivation. He had specifically left them for the Work-Study Students of Dorm 7. With the help of those notebooks, future Work-Study Students could avoid many detours.

When he reached the dormitory entrance, Mo Hui suddenly stopped. After hesitating for a moment, he turned to Tang San and said, "For the sake of the three years we spent together, Tang San, I'll give you a sincere piece of advice. When choosing an academy in the future, never choose one of those shady, third-rate academies. Remember that."

After saying this, Mo Hui walked toward the gates of Nuoding Academy without looking back.

After sharing a dormitory with Tang San for three years, Mo Hui had gained a fairly comprehensive understanding of him.

For now, although the lack of education in both his previous life and this life had made him somewhat extreme, he was otherwise acceptable. He was nowhere near as outrageous as people online had made him out to be in Mo Hui's previous life.

Many of his bad habits were probably acquired after going to Shrek. In particular, Flender's line, "Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocrities," had made Mo Hui laugh.

Of course, all of that was only when Tang Hao, Yu Xiaogang, Xiao Wu, and the others he cared about were not involved.

But once you offended any of those people he cared about, then regardless of the circumstances, regardless of who was right or wrong, you had invited your own death.

Especially Xiao Wu. Not even a single hair on her head could be harmed. Hadn't Zhao Wuji merely been playing around with them? Yet because Xiao Wu had suffered a slight injury, Tang San unleashed all sorts of poison-laced hidden weapons, even directly using the Dragon Whisker Needle.

Still, although Mo Hui's opinion of Tang San had improved somewhat, he could not possibly go and change anything for real. Giving him a reminder was already the utmost he could do.

Besides, Tang San's real problem was not now, but after he became a God King.

Though Tang San from Douluo Dalu 1 did not seem to possess particularly good morals, he was fairly ordinary among the protagonists of novels from that era. In some sense, he could even be considered morally outstanding.

But when Tang San in Douluo Dalu 2 entered Lovesickness Valley of Heaven and Earth, it completely bewildered Mo Hui as he read it back then. As for the things he did afterward, they were even harder to watch. In any case, the further it went, the more disgusting it became.

As he walked out of Nuoding Academy, Mo Hui deliberately turned to look at its gates, a trace of reluctance in his eyes.

"Pidgey..."

Even Pidgey at his side let out a somewhat sorrowful cry. After living there for four years, how could it not feel some attachment?

A moment later, Mo Hui closed his eyes and let out a deep breath. "Nuoding Academy, farewell. The place where I lived for four years."

Then, Mo Hui and Pidgey left Nuoding City together. Their legend was only just beginning!
