Douluo: I Won't Pretend Anymore, Qian Renxue Is My Wife

He released the Nunchaku Martial Soul again.

Buzz, buzz, buzz~

Then, one, two, three soul rings rose beneath him in succession.

Purple, black, black.

One purple soul ring and two uniformly ten-thousand-year black soul rings.

"Th-This completely defies logic!"

"Damn, not only did his second Martial Soul absorb soul rings, but it's one purple and two black rings."

"Ten-thousand-year rings again? Is he going to fly to heaven?"

"Can't compare, can't compare at all!"

The students were shocked by Qian Ye once again, and again, and again.

Qian Renxue sat there

Bibi Dong was already speechless. Even Qian Daoliu in his childhood had not been a tenth as extraordinary as this little brat.

It seemed she had truly found a treasure!

Qian Daoliu, I will definitely snatch him away from your side.

Qian Ye did not say much. He had finished showing off, so he withdrew his Martial Souls and soul rings. "Teacher, if there's nothing else, I'll head down."

"Wait!"

He had just turned around when Bibi Dong called out to him from behind.

"Is there something else?" Qian Ye asked as he turned back.

This stunning beauty wasn't going to make trouble for him again, was she?

In fact, his instincts were right.

Bibi Dong did intend to make trouble for him. She glanced at the first seat in front of the podium and said to the male student seated there, "You... switch seats with him."

The student hesitated. Though unwilling, he did not dare defy Bibi Dong's order.

He could only stand up and walk toward the back.

Sure enough, Bibi Dong insisted on making him sit right under her nose so she could keep an eye on him.

She was making things difficult for him!

Qian Ye was not afraid of her. Sitting was sitting.

He walked over and took the seat.

This made Qian Renxue, seated behind him, unhappy.

She glared at Bibi Dong with puffed cheeks.

Bibi Dong glanced in Qian Renxue's direction. Seeing her glaring angrily, she naturally understood why.

So she looked away.

There was a faint trace of guilt in her heart.

Qian Renxue was her daughter. It was not that she disliked her daughter, nor that she did not want to be with her.

She simply hated that man. Whenever she saw Qian Renxue, she was reminded of him.

She truly did not know how to face Qian Renxue.

Qian Ye looked back at Qian Renxue, signaling for her not to worry.

Qian Renxue nodded. Though dissatisfied with how Bibi Dong was treating him, there was nothing she could do.

After all, Bibi Dong was the teacher, not her.

If this were the Elder Hall, with Qian Daoliu and the Nine Great Elders backing her, she would still have some say.

But in Spirit Hall, she was merely a first-year student in Class One.

What was more, the woman above was not just an ordinary teacher. She was the Pope of Spirit Hall.

Others listened to Bibi Dong, not her.

Qian Renxue's current identity could not be revealed either. Even her Martial Soul had been disguised as the Bright Peacock.

She did not dare throw around the Eldest Young Lady's temper and expose herself.

She could only endure it.

Otherwise, she would have to leave the academy and return to the Elder Hall.

She did not want to lose this hard-won opportunity to study together with Qian Ye at Spirit Hall.

So she endured whenever she could.

After all, she was not an ordinary little girl.

Otherwise, in the original novel, she could not have gone undercover at the age of nine, disguised herself as a man, and endured it for more than ten or twenty years.

She could endure this too.

Qian Ye knew what Qian Renxue was thinking, and of course, he would not ignore her.

He had already promised Qian Daoliu that he would take good care of her.

At the same time, it was also his responsibility.

Only after seeing him sit down did Bibi Dong sweep her gaze across the class with satisfaction. "Let the teacher get to know you all..."

Feeling somewhat bored, Qian Ye sized up his deskmate. She was a female student around his age.

She was quite pretty, with large fluttering eyes, a round baby face, and the adorable appearance of a little girl.

Of course, the students in First-Year Class One were all freshmen who had just awakened their Martial Souls at the age of six.

The oldest were no more than eleven months older, while the youngest were no more than one month younger.

They were all about the same age.

After going around half the class, it was finally Qian Ye's table's turn.

Since he had already displayed his Martial Soul and soul rings earlier, there was no need for him to do so again.

It was his deskmate's turn.

She glanced at Qian Ye before standing and facing Bibi Dong. "Teacher, my name is Rou Shui. My Martial Soul is water."

Then she opened her right hand, and a small ball of water emerged from her palm.

Qian Ye found it rather novel. A water-type Martial Soul like this was truly unusual.

There were Martial Souls of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, lightning, wind, ice, and so on.

Only some ultimate Martial Souls were particularly rare.

Rou Shui withdrew her Martial Soul and placed her hand on the crystal ball for a test.

Qian Ye took a look. There was only a faint glow, so her Soul Power was not very high.

Bibi Dong glanced at it and announced, "Rou Shui, Level 3 Soul Power. Next."

Rou Shui lowered her head, passed the crystal ball to the student behind her, and sat down.

She noticed that her deskmate was staring at her, and her face flushed shyly.

Rou Shui felt pressured. Her deskmate Qian Ye was far too strong—she only had Level 3 Soul Power, while he was already Level 33.

Moreover, he had absorbed three soul rings.

His strength alone was enough to crush the entire class.

Seeing his little deskmate blush scarlet, Qian Ye knew she was embarrassed and shifted his gaze away.

After quite a while, the crystal ball finally reached Qian Renxue in the back.

The instant she received the crystal ball, Bibi Dong's gaze focused on her as well.

Dining Companion

Qian Ye gave her an encouraging look.

Qian Renxue smiled happily, released her Martial Soul behind her back, and two soul rings rose from beneath her feet.

Yellow, purple.

Her Martial Soul was the Bright Peacock.

Of course, Qian Renxue's Martial Soul was the Six-winged Angel. It was merely disguised as the Bright Peacock.

Qian Ye knew this perfectly well.

Although Bibi Dong could not see through it, she could sense that Qian Renxue possessed the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.

The Bright Peacock Martial Soul was merely a disguise.

"My name is Qian Renxue. My Martial Soul is the Bright Peacock. I have two soul rings and am Level 22." Qian Renxue introduced herself.

The students were shocked once more. They had not expected two geniuses in their class who were only six years old yet already above Level 20 and had absorbed more than two soul rings.

Bibi Dong looked at Qian Renxue, her eyes filled with complicated emotions.

Qian Ye was the only one who noticed this.

The other students naturally did not know about the relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong.

There were only two classes in the morning.

During the first class, the teacher and students interacted, introduced themselves, and displayed their strength.

The second class was for distributing academy uniforms and Spirit Hall Academy student badges.

Each class lasted one shichen.

Then school ended at noon.

After lunch, the afternoon was free cultivation time.

Unless there were special circumstances, this was the daily schedule.

Qian Ye led Qian Renxue to the academy cafeteria.

As the number one academy on Douluo Continent, Spirit Hall's cafeteria was even more impressive than those of Heaven Dou Royal Academy and Star Luo Royal Academy.

Teachers received four dishes and one soup.

Students received three dishes and one soup.

The second floor was the teachers' dining hall.

The first floor was the students' dining hall.

Students ate buffet-style.

Students without money did not need to worry, as Spirit Hall Academy provided subsidies.

As long as students joined Spirit Hall Academy after awakening their Martial Souls, regardless of their Soul Power level, they would receive a subsidy of one Gold Soul Coin every month.

Then there was also the soul master subsidy uniformly issued by Spirit Hall.

Of course, the soul master subsidy had certain requirements.

One had to surpass Level 10—for example, absorb the first soul ring and reach Level 11 to become a true soul master—before qualifying to receive it.

The soul master subsidy was one Gold Soul Coin per month.

In one year, they could receive twelve Gold Soul Coins.

Given the spending level on Douluo Continent, this sum was enough for one person's living expenses. As long as they did not spend recklessly, there would even be some left over each month.

Upon reaching Level 20 or above and becoming a Soul Grandmaster, the monthly subsidy increased to ten Gold Soul Coins.
