Inner Academy Key Cultivation; What to Do About Ma Xiaotao's Training?

"Elder Xuan."

"We can discuss the Soul Skill matter later."

"Don't you think we should return to the academy now and give this little one preferential resources from the entire academy?"

As Yan Shaozhe spoke, Elder Xuan, who had been contemplating how to save face, immediately understood his intention. His expression turned serious, and he nodded gently.

"Indeed, cultivating him is better than cultivating a million good-for-nothings!"

"After Elder Mu."

"He is the most likely person to achieve godhood!"

"If even he cannot become a god, then it means those guys in the God Realm are blind, or that the God Realm hasn't existed for a long, long time!" Elder Xuan asserted without reservation.

If someone with all red Soul Rings couldn't become a god, then what criteria did the people in the God Realm use for selection?

It couldn't possibly be based on bloodline, could it?

Whoever was closer to them became a god?

That would be too ridiculous.

The God Realm shouldn't be like that, and it couldn't be!

Four figures transformed into streaks of light, rushing towards Shrek. Traveling at full speed, they appeared at the main gate of Shrek Academy in less than two hours.

The emaciated old man lying in the Outer Academy opened his eyes and watched the four streaks of light flying towards him. He spoke unhurriedly.

"Go to the Sea God Pavilion."

The four figures streaked across the sky, heading directly into the Sea God Pavilion. The emaciated old man, walking with slow steps, lay quietly in his exclusive rocking chair, listening to them recount the events in the Star Dou Great Forest, occasionally offering a comment.

"That Old Turtle?"

"I once considered him as Xuan Zi's Soul Ring, but I found more suitable ones."

"Di Tian? Did he appear?"

Only after receiving all the answers he wanted.

Elder Mu's gaze turned back to Lu Heqiu, and he asked softly.

"Most of the new students for the Outer Academy have arrived. Would you be willing to study in the Outer Academy for a period?"

Upon hearing this.

Yan Shaozhe was so shocked he stood up straight.

"Teacher!"

"Absolutely not!"

"Wouldn't sending him to the Outer Academy hinder his progress?"

"We have enough teachers in the Inner Academy who can provide him with private instruction, which would allow him to cultivate faster!"

Elder Mu waved his hand, ignoring his disciple. His gaze remained fixed on Lu Heqiu, hoping to get his answer.

"The teachers in the Inner Academy can indeed provide you with the most refined guidance."

"However, the Outer Academy can allow you to see the differences between various Martial Souls more realistically, systematically observe how a Soul Master grows, and understand the normal cultivation speed of a Soul Master."

A hint of hesitation flashed in Lu Heqiu's eyes, but he still shook his head gently.

"Let's not go."

"Since the teaching level in the Inner Academy is higher, please have the Inner Academy teachers guide me."

"Besides."

"If I go, I'm afraid I'll make those guys in the Outer Academy completely give up on cultivating their Martial Souls, won't I?"

Lu Heqiu knew Elder Mu wanted him to see the diversity of this world, but that wasn't what Lu Heqiu wanted. Lu Heqiu needed to break the seal and recover his strength as soon as possible.

That was the main priority.

As for Soul Power... although his Soul Skills were powerful, when fighting against truly strong opponents, Lu Heqiu couldn't last long. He would completely run out of Soul Power after using his Soul Skills twice. What was the point of that? To show off?

"Alright."

"Since you are unwilling to go."

"Shao Zhe, you will arrange several teachers for him and have them systematically introduce him to all knowledge related to Soul Masters, even some unimportant things, you must introduce them."

Elder Mu did not force the issue, instead complying with Lu Heqiu's wish and asking Yan Shaozhe to arrange teachers for him.

Ma Xiaotao's face suddenly lit up with joy.

She had been somewhat worried when she first heard that Elder Mu intended to send Lu Heqiu to study in the Outer Academy.

After all, if Lu Heqiu went, she would have to go too, otherwise, the Evil Fire within her would start to rebel.

Moreover, she was currently in her golden period of cultivation.

If she followed Lu Heqiu to the Outer Academy, it would clearly delay her significantly. Hearing Lu Heqiu refuse now, she was naturally overjoyed.

"Yes, Teacher."

Yan Shaozhe nodded in response to Mu En.

Mu En didn't say anything further. He had initially intended for Lu Heqiu to gain a more systematic understanding of the world, and the Outer Academy was one of the best choices. The teachers in the Inner Academy were indeed not as good at basic instruction as those in the Outer Academy.

After all, they taught the geniuses of the Inner Academy, who had long since skipped those stages, and inevitably made omissions when lecturing.

But since Lu Heqiu was unwilling, they would proceed with the genius cultivation mechanism.

The group left the Sea God Pavilion.

Xuan Zi flew towards the direction of the cafeteria again.

Yan Shaozhe went to the Martial Soul Department to gather suitable teachers. He didn't plan to assign only Inner Academy teachers. Although Mu En had only spoken casually, Yan Shaozhe took it to heart and prepared to arrange for teachers from both the Inner and Outer Academies to guide Lu Heqiu in different aspects.

Ma Xiaotao held Lu Heqiu's hand and flew towards the dormitory building.

"This is not right!"

"Shouldn't I find a teacher to prepare a room specifically for me!"

"With you like this, I'm not very comfortable..."

Ma Xiaotao suddenly remembered something. Looking at Lu Heqiu, who was now about three or four years old, she felt inconvenienced. Moreover, Lu Heqiu could understand their conversation.

When it came to matters between men and women, Ma Xiaotao wouldn't believe it herself if she said Lu Heqiu didn't understand!

But...

After Lu Heqiu hunted his first Soul Ring.

The range of the seal's influence also changed.

They had initially measured it at fifteen meters. After unlocking the first seal, the range of influence was less than five meters, which made Ma Xiaotao's situation even more awkward!

Five meters was fine for sleeping.

But what about bathing, using the toilet, and changing clothes!?

She couldn't possibly have Lu Heqiu stand at the door listening to the sound of water, could she?

"I need to hurry!"

Ma Xiaotao suddenly said without any preamble.

Lu Heqiu knew what she was talking about.

She wanted to hurry and resolve the influence of the Evil Fire within her. As the seals were gradually unlocked, the range Lu Heqiu could influence her would only shorten. If she didn't want to become Lu Heqiu's appendage.

She could only find a way to cultivate.

The two landed in front of the door.

Ma Xiaotao obviously walked in eagerly.

She was going to start cultivating!

But upon seeing that there was only one bed in the entire room, her eager expression froze. Her gaze gradually shifted towards Lu Heqiu, and after a long time, she managed to squeeze out a few words.

"Let's cultivate separately tonight!"

"I'll sit on the floor!"

Lu Heqiu glanced at her, clearly unconcerned. If she wanted to sit on the floor, then let her sit on the floor.

Anyway, this fellow wouldn't be able to sit on the floor for much longer.

Her own speed of increasing Soul Power would definitely be faster than Lu Heqiu becoming a Titled Douluo.

When the power overflowing from the seal completely disappeared.

She would only be able to stick close to him!
