Oscar Reached Rank 30, Tang San Enrolled at Heaven Dou Royal Academy

Zhao Xiaotian looked at the ruins, shook his head, and took out a fairly large bag from his Soul Tool. After handing it to the villagers who had rushed over, he said, "This is compensation for you, as well as money to rebuild your homes!"

Upon hearing this, the villagers opened the bag and widened their eyes. They had never seen so many Gold Soul Coins in their lives. Judging by the amount inside, there had to be several thousand Gold Soul Coins.

The villager holding the bag was overwhelmed with gratitude. His hands slipped, and the bag of Gold Soul Coins fell to the ground. Seeing this, Zhao Xiaotian moved his Spirit Energy, and the coins scattered across the ground flew back into the bag one by one.

"Villagers! I'm from Spirit Hall. If this money isn't enough, feel free to go to the Spirit Hall Branch Hall in Suotuo City and collect more. If you have any questions, you can also come find me here!"

After hearing that Zhao Xiaotian was from Spirit Hall, the villagers all cupped their hands respectfully. "Thank you!"

When Zhao Xiaotian turned around, he saw Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong, and the others. He asked in confusion, "Why aren't you all asleep yet?"

Dai Mubai said helplessly, "What could we do? Your battle was too terrifying. It woke us up."

Zhao Xiaotian scratched his head awkwardly. "Ahem! Alright, it's fine now. Go back and rest."

Dai Mubai and Oscar nodded, then dragged away the chubby boy who had been watching the show. Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had intended to leave as well, but Zhao Xiaotian stopped them and asked them to take Xiao Wu back.

Ning Rongrong nodded and, together with Zhu Zhuqing, carried the unconscious Xiao Wu back to the dormitory. Zhao Xiaotian turned his gaze toward his grandfather, whom he had already started calling Grandpa, and smiled.

Liu Ming did not say much. After patting Zhao Xiaotian on the head, he left with Liu Junxi. Seeing Ghost Charm still greedily staring at the departing Xiao Wu, Liu Jin flew into a rage and slapped him.

Zhao Xiaotian was still confused when Liu Jin, right before his eyes, grabbed Ghost Charm as if he were a chick and carried him away. Zhao Xiaotian waved his hand, glanced at Flender, who was still burning with rage, and returned to his dormitory.

The reason for Flender's fury was simple: Tang Hao had casually attacked his old friend for no reason. If Flender's strength had not been inferior to Tang Hao's, he would have killed him without hesitation.

Yet Flender's anger also carried a sense of helpless frustration, because he knew very well that Tang Hao's strength was not something a mere Rank 78 Soul Sage like him could resist.

Soon, the morning sun rose. In Heaven Dou City, two adults and a child walked through the streets. Yu Xiaogang looked utterly haggard and disheveled as he followed behind Tang Hao.

Tang San kept asking Tang Hao why he had left him, but Tang Hao refused to say a word. Instead, he brought Tang San and Yu Xiaogang to a place called Moonlight Pavilion.

Although there was some unpleasantness outside Moonlight Pavilion, the three of them still entered and met Tang Yuehua. Tang Hao stated his purpose: he wanted to use Tang Yuehua's connections to get Tang San admitted into Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Tang Yuehua readily agreed. After all, Tang San was her second brother's child, and he looked so ordinary.

Meanwhile, at Shrek's plaza, Flender gathered Dai Mubai, Zhao Xiaotian, and the other five for another first lesson. Because of what had happened the previous night, Xiao Wu was filled with mixed emotions.

Xiao Wu was also puzzled as to why Zhao Xiaotian had not killed her after learning her identity. Zhao Xiaotian noticed her questioning gaze and smiled at her.

Zhao Xiaotian's smile, framed by his pure gold-rimmed glasses, made Xiao Wu's heart race like a startled deer. Just as she was lost in wild thoughts, Oscar suddenly spoke.

"Dean! My Soul Power has broken through Rank 30!"

Flender's previously distressed expression immediately lit up. "What? Xiao Ao, your Soul Power has reached Rank 30!"

Oscar gave a lecherous grin. "Hehe! That's right! I broke through last night, but I just never mentioned it."

Flender finally laughed. "Hahaha! Well done, Xiao Ao! Tomorrow, I'll have Zhao Wuji take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for your first Soul Rings."

Zhao Xiaotian's expression did not change, but he was still shocked inside. It was difficult to find such a young food-system Soul Elder anywhere on the continent, yet this run-down place like Shrek had managed to cultivate one.

It seemed he had to find a way to recruit Oscar into Spirit Hall. Even if Oscar did not join Spirit Hall, he had to find a way to recruit him into the White Shadow Sect. If Oscar was willing, he could even give him a plot of land to develop his own sausage family.

Of course, the condition for giving Oscar land was that he join the White Shadow Sect and become one of their people. If he was unwilling, then there was nothing more to say.

At the same time, with Tang Yuehua's help, Tang San successfully passed Heaven Dou Royal Academy's assessment and became a student of the Royal Academy. As for Yu Xiaogang, he was turned away at the door, because his theories were simply garbage in the eyes of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Yu Xiaogang was furious at how Heaven Dou Royal Academy had treated him, but he also began to hate the Zhao Xiaotian Tang San had told him about.

Although Yu Xiaogang did not know whether the Zhao Xiaotian Tang San described was the Zhao Xiaotian he knew, they were probably the same person. The appearance of the Spirit described by Tang San matched the Zhao Xiaotian in his memories very closely.

The only difference was that the Zhao Xiaotian Tang San spoke of wore glasses, while the Zhao Xiaotian in Yu Xiaogang's memories wore a mask.

Yu Xiaogang came to a place called "Er Long Restaurant," where he spent five Gold Soul Coins on an all-you-can-eat meal. Whenever Yu Xiaogang felt particularly irritated, he would come to this kind of restaurant for a meal.

Only the food here suited Yu Xiaogang's taste. Although he did not know why this restaurant was named Er Long, he could not be bothered to care.

Soon, the day passed. Tang San walked out of Heaven Dou Royal Academy with a gloomy expression, while Yu Xiaogang waited outside to return to Moonlight Pavilion with him.

Yu Xiaogang had waited for Tang San because his clothes, which he had not washed for years, were far too filthy and disordered. As a result, the people at Moonlight Pavilion greatly disliked Yu Xiaogang and would not let him enter Moonlight Pavilion.

Following Yu Xiaogang, Tang San said coldly, "Why do these damned nobles look down on ordinary people so much!"

Yu Xiaogang said flatly, "This world respects the strong. Likewise, if a family has powerful people, they will place themselves as high above others as Titled Douluo. As long as you cultivate diligently, you too can trample ordinary people beneath your feet. If you are strong enough, you can even trample nobles and imperial power beneath your feet as well!"

Yu Xiaogang, who had himself been born into nobility, spoke with startling audacity. The ordinary Soul Masters and commoners around them all looked at them angrily.

Several nobles approached at that moment, looking at them mockingly. One of them, with an especially arrogant face, stepped forward and pointed at Tang San's nose.

"Oh? Isn't this the trash our Royal Academy recruited this year, the one with the useless Blue Silver Grass Spirit?"

Tang San glared furiously and gritted his teeth. "Or--do!"

Yu Xiaogang stopped Tang San and said to Ordo, "What? Since when did a hostage sent by the Balak Kingdom have the right to act so arrogantly?"

Furious, Ordo released his Sunflower Spirit. His Rank 33 Soul Power forced Yu Xiaogang back several steps. If Tang San had not caught him, he would likely have fallen.

Ordo roared, "As a prince of the Balak Kingdom, what I hate most is when others call me a hostage!"

At that moment, Xue Beng walked out of the academy and said impatiently, "What's with all this noise? Get out of the way already! You're blocking this prince's path!"

Seeing him, Ordo withdrew his Spirit and said respectfully, "Fourth Prince! These two pieces of trash insulted the Balak royal family. Our Balak royal family cannot swallow this insult!"

Xue Beng fixed his gaze on Tang San and said disdainfully, "What? A lowly commoner dares provoke nobles?"

"You!" Tang San glared furiously at Xue Beng and Ordo.

Xue Beng kicked him and snapped, "Who gave you the nerve!"

Xue Beng's Soul Power had been piled up with heavenly treasures, so it far surpassed Tang San's. This was one of the main reasons Xue Beng looked down on Tang San. Besides, even if he killed this lowly commoner, his uncle Prince Xue Xing would cover for him.
