"Your Highness, if this is how things are arranged, what about Qin Ming..."
Only after everything had settled did Meng Shenji voice the question in his heart.
After all, Qin Ming possessed an Innate Soul Power of level nine and had reached the cultivation of a high-level Soul King at such a young age. Given time, perhaps their Heaven Dou Empire could welcome a true Title Douluo powerhouse of their own.
Such talent was something they absolutely could not afford to let slip away!
Regarding this, Qian Renxue felt nothing but disdain.
With a gem like Jiang Li already in the picture, a Soul King with only moderate talent like Qin Ming was hardly worth looking at.
As for the possibility of the other party breaking through to become a Title Douluo?
She treated such notions as nothing more than a joke.
Without a massive soul master organization like Martial Soul Hall to provide sufficient cultivation resources, the path to becoming a Title Douluo was effectively closed to Qin Ming, if only because of that thousand-year fifth soul ring he possessed.
After all, not every soul master with a thousand-year fifth ring could eventually become the next Snake Lance Douluo.
"I already said, leave the teaching entirely to Mr. Jiang Li. As for Qin Ming, let him serve as a deputy to Mr. Jiang Li to settle down and gain some experience."
Near the plaza of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, a giant pavilion covering several hundred square meters stood quietly.
At its core was a square stone table fifteen meters long and two meters wide.
Surrounding the stone table were luxurious, comfortable long sofas capable of seating dozens of people at once, providing a spacious and cozy gathering place for the academy's elites.
At this moment, Qin Ming stood with his hands arrogantly clasped behind his back, pointing fingers at Yu Tianheng and his group.
As a "top student" from Shrek Academy, he was quite disappointed after taking over this batch of so-called geniuses from the Imperial Dou Academy.
They were around ten years old and possessed cultivation at the Soul Grand Master level, yet this group of so-called geniuses couldn't even complete the traditional running drills of his Shrek Academy.
"You are truly unworthy of the name of genius!"
"It is a complete waste of the excellent cultivation resources here at the Imperial Dou Academy!"
Just as Qin Ming was still rambling on, a blue-haired girl dressed in black, her face hidden behind a black veil, spoke up timidly, "Teacher Qin Ming, but I am an auxiliary-system soul master. The task you have set is truly a bit..."
The person who spoke was the descendant of the Nine Heart Begonia of this generation, a girl known as Ye Lingling.
As soon as she spoke, the other students expressed their dissatisfaction to Qin Ming in unison.
Which of them attending the Heaven Dou Royal Academy didn't have a family power behind them? Which of them didn't have a complete heritage?
Yet, they had never heard of anyone training soul masters by just making them run.
Hearing this, Qin Ming felt his dignity as a teacher being challenged, and he became agitated.
Running was a world-shaking method summarized by his great alma mater; how dare this group of spoiled second-generation heirs question it?
It was simply unforgivable!
Originally, he wanted to properly exercise his authority as a teacher, but he suddenly remembered that he was currently in the academy. If he caused too much of a scene, it might lead to endless trouble.
"Heh, do you think that just because you are an auxiliary-system soul master, the enemy won't attack you once you are on the battlefield?"
"If you don't train your physique now, you won't even be able to run away when the time comes."
Qin Ming opened his mouth and spewed the same sophistry he had learned from Flender.
Ye Lingling wanted to retort; after all, even if auxiliary-system soul masters like them went to the battlefield, how could they not have protectors by their sides?
And if their protectors were already dead, what use would it be if they could run fast?
Qin Ming, on the other hand, continued as if he were stating a profound truth, "But I suppose it makes sense. This training method is a world-shaking technique summarized by my alma mater, the academy known for only cultivating monsters. It is no surprise that you cannot understand it."
As he finished speaking, everyone present, including Yu Tianheng, rolled their eyes incessantly.
Ever since this Teacher Qin Ming came to instruct them, every other word out of his mouth was about how his alma mater was this or that...
On the side, Jiang Li, having heard the entire process, looked at Xue Qinghe with a smirk. Was Qin Ming's "Celestial Dragon" syndrome already this obvious?
"Your Highness, I think if you want to hand this team over to me, you should send this delusional fellow away."
"Otherwise, I am truly afraid that one day I won't be able to help myself and will take action."
Qian Renxue, teased by Jiang Li, had a rather colorful expression on her face. It was as if he were saying, this is the soldier she, the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, had brought up?
Immediately, she made a prompt decision and issued an order for Qin Ming to pack his things and get out of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
As for a deputy for Jiang Li, she had originally intended to arrange one of her own people.
However, after thinking for only a moment, she dismissed the idea.
Jiang Li had been able to cultivate to the level of a Soul Douluo in obscurity before leaving his mark on the continent; he was undoubtedly a deep-thinking person. If she tried to pull some petty, underhanded moves and got caught, it would be counterproductive.
Thus, she took the opportunity to have Sun Buyu, another teacher at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, fill the vacancy left by Qin Ming after he was kicked out.
Qin Ming, who had still been rambling on, was completely stunned when he suddenly received the order of his dismissal.
Had he not chosen to be recruited by the Heaven Dou Royal Academy precisely so he could help his alma mater when the time was right?
But now, his perfect plan had been nipped in the bud before it could even begin.
Damn it!
However, as Qin Ming looked up, he discovered Xue Qinghe approaching slowly with a large group of people, his face cold as frost.
Especially with a malevolent star like Dugu Bo by his side, Qin Ming immediately disregarded everything else and slunk away in defeat.
Damn Imperial Dou Academy, since you fired me, I will return to my alma mater, Shrek, and help Dean Flender cultivate a group of geniuses!
When the next Spirit Master Tournament comes around, I will definitely make you pay!
Subsequently, Jiang Li and his party arrived before the Imperial Dou Team. Now that the good-for-nothing who only knew how to make them run had been driven away, their moods were excellent.
Xue Qinghe spoke up to introduce them, "This Mr. Jiang Li will be your instructor from now on. Later, I will have Teacher Sun Buyu come to assist you."
"At the same time, you are about to welcome two new companions, Tang San and Xiao Wu."
"I hope you can all get along happily in your future studies."
