"You and Zhu Qing, go to Heaven Dou City. From now on, you will both be the new instructors of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"Two years from now, there will be a new Continental Elite Spirit Master Tournament. If your students don't get into the top two, Yuebai, Ah Yin and I will give you a good talking-to."
Qian Yuebai subconsciously took a step back, clutching his buttocks, his face already wearing a mask of pain.
"Dad, don't worry, Zhu Qing and I will definitely not let you down!"
After hesitating for a moment, Qian Yuebai couldn't help but ask the question.
"Dad, what about my brother and older sister?"
Qian Mochen looked at Qian Yuebai with a half-smile, seeing right through his little scheme.
"Your eldest sister started learning how to handle palace affairs from Dong'er half a month ago."
"Your brother went back to the Star Dou Forest with Hu Liena ten days ago. He also has things to learn."
"If you feel it's unfair, I can put in a good word for you and see if you can switch with them?"
"No need, Dad!"
Qian Yuebai smiled awkwardly, and seeing that Qian Mochen had no further instructions, she quickly took her leave with Zhu Qing.
"Pack your things, Ah Yin and I will take you there tomorrow."
"Okay, Dad!"
The next afternoon, Qian Mochen and his group arrived at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Qian Yuebai noticed the Blue Silver Grass embroidered on the inside of the sleeves of the two Soul Master guarding the door, and he recognized many of the teachers walking around him in Spirit City.
"Dad, is this really the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? Or is it a branch of our Spirit Hall?"
"This is of course the Imperial Academy, but a few years ago your father made a deal with Xue Ye and got this place."
Qian Mochen pointed to a three-story building ahead, "Your mother and I will accompany you this far. The rest of the way, you will have to walk on your own."
"The college principal and teachers are waiting for you inside. Don't feel pressured. If things don't go well, come back. Your mother and I will take care of you for the rest of your lives!"
"Hmph, Dad, you underestimate me, don't you, Zhu Qing?"
"Right!"
Qian Yuebai and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing determination and a refusal to admit defeat.
The two strode into the small building, asked for the principal's location, pushed open the door, and were immediately looked at by more than a dozen people in the room.
"Welcome, welcome! I am Yun Qi, the Dean of the Imperial Academy."
Yun Qi stood up from the main table, invited Qian Yuebai and the other person inside, and introduced them to the dozen or so teachers around her with a smile.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these two are the student teachers who have come to apply for the positions: Qian Yuebai and Zhu Zhuqing."
The teachers around them scrutinized Qian Yuebai and his companion's noticeably youthful faces, but no one spoke. Their exchanged glances were filled with skepticism.
If the dean hadn't admitted that he was the one who brought the two people, the teachers would have thought that a student was trying to impersonate a teacher to deceive them.
Qian Yuebai and Zhu Zhuqing both looked incredibly young; they didn't even look as old as fifth or sixth graders.
As Titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall, Yun Qi was aware of the identities of these two people: the biological son of Lord Qian Mochen and the wife he had raised since childhood.
He believed that Lord Mo Chen wouldn't joke around, and he had a certain level of confidence.
" Yuebai, Zhu Qing, please introduce yourselves so we, your new colleagues, can get to know you."
Qian Yuebai understood the meaning behind Yun Qi's words, gave Zhu Qing a look, and the two of them took a step forward at the same time, with six Soul Ring of yellow, purple, black and white rising behind them.
" Qian Yuebai, a level 65 Control-type Soul Emperor!"
" Zhu Zhuqing, a level 64 Agility-type Soul Emperor!"
The genuine Soul Ring met the faces of Qian Yuebai and his companion, both of whom looked excessively young, and the room fell silent for a moment.
The teachers stared wide-eyed at the terrifying combination of Soul Ring behind the two.
Whose second Soul Ring is a thousand years old, and their fourth Soul Ring is a ten-thousand-year old one!
Looking at the excessively youthful faces of Qian Yuebai and the other two, these teachers, who were also Soul Emperor, felt as if they had wasted the last few decades of their lives!
Yun Qi was stunned for a while before she came to her senses.
Everyone knew that Lord Mo Chen's offspring were extraordinary, but no one had ever said that two twelve or thirteen-year-old children could directly reach the Soul Emperor level.
"Now that everyone knows each other, let me introduce Yuebai and Zhu Qing's jobs."
" The Imperial Academy's new generation of teams participating in the Soul Master Tournament will be selected by Yuebai and Zhu Qing. Everyone, including myself, must cooperate!"
Five years ago, we fell in third place.
"This time, our Imperial Academy will aim for second place and strive for first!"
Yun Qi's dignified gaze swept over everyone present, each of them appearing serious and composed.
"Yes!"
"Everyone, get out. Yuebai, Zhu Qing, you two stay behind!"
After everyone left, Yun Qi closed the door with a gentle smile on her face.
" Yuebai, Zhu Qing, please sit down. We don't need to be so formal in private. I also come from the Spirit Hall."
"Thank you, Uncle Yun." Qian Yuebai thought for a moment and called out a title that sounded friendly but didn't overshadow his father's seniority.
Upon hearing Yuebai and Zhu Qing call him "Uncle," Yun Qi's face beamed like a sunflower.
"Since you're new here, let me first explain the rules of the academy."
" The Imperial Academy is a training base of our Spirit Hall in Heaven Dou City. Any student there who is disloyal to our Spirit Hall will not be taught core Soul Skill, nor will they be allowed to receive any additional resources from the academy..."
" Yuebai, Zhu Qing, you also need to be careful when selecting people. You can give me the list first, and I will review it. If there are no problems, they can represent our Imperial Academy in the competition."
"No problem, Uncle Yun, you go ahead with your work. Zhu Qing and I will go to the dormitory to settle in first."
"Okay, you guys go ahead with your work. If you need anything, just come to my office. I'm usually here."
On the way to the dormitory, Zhu Zhuqing tugged at Qian Yuebai's sleeve.
Qian Yuebai: "???"
" Yuebai, have you ever participated in similar multiplayer Soul Fighting?"
"No."
"There are still six months until the official competition, so we both have time to study. And..."
Qian Yuebai paused for a moment, then continued, "This afternoon, let's go check out the quality of the top students in the academy. If they're not good enough, we'll just copy my older sister and aunt's methods."
The scene of being forced to soak in the sea for a day and a night, and having to fight with Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, uncontrollably surfaced in Zhu Zhuqing's mind.
She absolutely did not want to relive those scenes again.
"Wouldn't that be too cruel to the trainees?"
"Pressure is a motivator. If it weren't for our older sisters, would we have achieved this level of skill at this age?"
Qian Yuebai's words were perfectly reasonable.
Enduring hardship is acceptable, as long as the hardship you endure can become part of your strength.
He had gotten soaked in the rain, so naturally he had to tear up the umbrella; otherwise, his suffering would have been in vain.
