Douluo: No More Pretending, Qian Renxue Is My Wife

Qian Ye nodded. "Mm, my Little Xue is such a good girl."

Hehe~

Qian Renxue suddenly gave him a mischievous smile. "Then you have to tell me—and you'd better tell the truth. What did Grandpa say to you just now?"

"As long as you tell the truth, I won't tell Grandpa and the other nine grandpas about this secret."

"Otherwise, I'll tell them, okay?"

Enrolling at Spirit Hall Academy, Reward: Ancient White Dragon Guardian Spirit

When had Little Xue learned this trick too?

Forget it. There was no harm in telling her!

Qian Ye sat on the threshold and had Qian Renxue sit beside him, then patted her head. "Little Xue, come sit down."

Qian Renxue held her head high as she sat beside him and looked at him. "Hurry up and tell me."

"Grandpa said I'm going to Spirit Hall Academy to study."

Qian Renxue broke into a delighted smile. "Then I want to go too!"

"You..."

Qian Ye hesitated. "It's not impossible, but Grandpa has to agree first."

"Grandpa will definitely agree! I'm going to find him right now!"

Before Qian Ye could say anything else, Qian Renxue took off running toward the Elder Hall.

Watching her small retreating figure, Qian Ye shook his head. "Let's hope so!"

Half an hour later.

"Brother Qian Ye, Grandpa already agreed to let me study at Spirit Hall Academy with you."

Qian Renxue ran back and said.

Qian Ye smiled. "That's great!"

It seemed Qian Daoliu had taken his words to heart.

A month later.

Qian Daoliu called the two of them before him. "Qian Ye, Little Xue, tomorrow is the opening day of Spirit Hall Academy."

"Little Xue can go, but Qian Ye, you must take good care of her."

"I definitely will." Qian Ye knew that much.

He would not only look after himself and ignore her.

Of course, the little girl was a favored daughter of heaven. Ordinary people could not afford to provoke her.

"Also, Little Xue's Martial Soul needs to be disguised. Her identity is special, after all, so she can't directly use the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul."

It had to be said that Qian Daoliu had planned this long ago.

Qian Ye asked, "Then Grandpa Qian, what Martial Soul are you planning to disguise Little Xue's as?"

"The Bright Peacock Martial Soul. The first soul ring she absorbed came from that kind of soul beast too, didn't it?"

"Yes." Qian Ye naturally knew that Qian Daoliu possessed a secret technique capable of disguising Martial Souls.

In the original novel, when Qian Renxue went to the Heaven Dou Empire and disguised herself as Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, she had used this disguise technique.

Not only did her figure and appearance change.

Even her Martial Soul had been disguised as the Heaven Dou royal family's Swan Martial Soul.

Qian Daoliu nodded. "Then it's settled."

"I'll follow Grandpa Qian's arrangements." Qian Ye had no objections to this.

As long as Qian Renxue did not have to disguise herself as a boy, and could attend school, disguising her Martial Soul was no big deal.

As for Qian Renxue herself, although she did not want to disguise her Martial Soul,

she accepted it so she could study at the academy with Qian Ye.

Besides, though she was only six years old, she was exceptionally mature and sensitive.

Qian Renxue only acted cute in front of Qian Ye and Qian Daoliu.

With everyone else, she was extremely serious.

She was precocious and sensible as well.

Her temperament was incredibly steady.

She could fool others in this regard, but not Qian Ye.

He had watched her grow up. The moment she squatted down, he naturally knew exactly what kind of person she was.

The next day.

Qian Daoliu arranged for the two of them to enter Spirit Hall Academy.

Qian Ye was even assigned a private dorm room. He knew this was special treatment.

With Qian Daoliu's connections, Spirit Hall Academy was practically his own home.

Arranging for a few people to enter was simply flawless.

Besides, he had quite a few informants at the academy.

Moreover, Spirit Hall Academy was not solely under Bibi Dong's control.

This academy was the cradle where Spirit Hall cultivated its talent.

As long as arrangements were made in advance, people like Qian Ye could be directly admitted without doing anything and start school right away.

That was indeed what happened.

Qian Ye had not even gone through Spirit Hall Academy's assessment before moving into the dormitory. Even his class had already been arranged.

And Qian Renxue was in the same class as him.

First-year junior division, Class One for new students.

Soul Master Academies on the Douluo Continent were mainly divided into three levels: junior, intermediate, and advanced.

The standard duration of junior Soul Master Academy was one to six years.

The intermediate level lasted around three years. Of course, at Shrek Academy, students who failed to meet the graduation requirements were not allowed to graduate.

Advanced academies also lasted roughly three years, though three years was not the minimum.

Qian Ye had just finished tidying up his dorm room. Feeling a little tired, he made his bed and lay down to rest.

It was not mealtime yet.

Ding! Congratulations, Host, for checking in at Spirit Hall Academy. Reward: one Ancient White Dragon Guardian Spirit!

"White Dragon Guardian Spirit? What kind of thing is that?" Qian Ye knew about dragons, but he did not know what a guardian spirit was.

Ding! Host, the so-called White Dragon is the kind of dragon from the world where you previously lived!

Ding! A spirit is the soul of a dragon after its death!

Ding! The White Dragon is an ancient White Dragon God from another world, with a lifespan of roughly one billion years!

Ding! Though the White Dragon's body has died, her Dragon Soul will not perish and remains hidden in a mysterious corner of heaven and earth!

Ding! Although her body no longer exists, the power of her soul still possesses one-tenth of the strength she had in life!

Ding! Having her protect you is, in summary, what is called a White Dragon Guardian Spirit!

"I see."

But Qian Ye was thinking of something else. "Then, System Sister, how do I summon the White Dragon Guardian Spirit?"

Ding! She has already been placed in your spiritual space by this system. You only need to use your spiritual will to communicate with her!

Ding! Also, you can use your divine sense to enter your spiritual space and speak with the White Dragon face-to-face!

Qian Ye felt that he could give it a try.

He immediately sat in meditation, focused his mind, and attempted to use his divine sense to enter his spiritual space.

A spiritual space, also known as the Sea of Spirit, was a mysterious independent region within the human mind formed from spiritual power.

Like the dantian, it was humanity's second great mysterious space.

Although ordinary people possessed such spaces, they could neither open them nor use divine sense to enter, inspect, or use them.

Only cultivators—and special cultivators at that—could open them.

For example, Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong, the daughter of a god, had both opened their own spiritual spaces.

Qian Ye sat on the bed, concentrating as he sensed the existence of his spiritual space and entered it.

Huh?

All of a sudden, Qian Ye found himself in an unfamiliar realm.

With a glance around, he saw a vast expanse of heaven and earth. There was sunlight, but not a trace of life.

"That's not right!"

Qian Ye seemed to spot a pool on the ground, filled with water so clear he could see to the bottom.

"Could the White Dragon Guardian Spirit be in there?"

The system had said that this White Dragon Guardian Spirit was an ancient Dragon God from another world, possessing extraordinarily powerful magic.

He just did not know whether she would lose her temper upon seeing him.

After all, he had not conquered her yet.

Qian Ye descended to the ground and saw neither grass nor trees.

After taking a few steps, he arrived at the pool.

Lowering his head, he indeed saw a massive creature curled up at rest beneath the water.

Her body was covered in sharply defined white scales that gleamed brilliantly.

She was about ten thousand zhang long. Her head was as large as a mountain, shaped like a camel's; her horns like a deer's; her eyes like a rabbit's; her ears like an ox's; her neck like a snake's; her belly like a clam's; her scales like a carp's; her claws like an eagle's; and her paws like a tiger's.

She had eighty-one scales along her back, embodying the ultimate yang number of nine times nine. Whiskers hung beside her mouth, a bright pearl rested beneath her chin, and reverse scales lay under her throat.

There was a Boshan tree atop her head.

As far as Qian Ye knew, Boshan was also called chimu. A dragon could not ascend to heaven without chimu.

With a breath, she could form clouds; she could transform into water or fire.

Without question, this was a true giant dragon.

At the same time, she was only a Dragon Soul.

Her body was gone, leaving only her soul behind.

Qian Ye understood that dragons possessed boundless supernatural powers. They could become large or small, long or short, and could even take human form.

Although the White Dragon Guardian Spirit before him was ten thousand zhang long and incomparably enormous, she could also shrink to the length of a finger or transform into a human-sized form.

A Close Encounter with a Giant Dragon

What concerned Qian Ye now was not her size or length.

It was how he, as a human, was supposed to communicate with a dragon.
