City Folk Really Play Wild; Gu Yuena and Tang San Were Determined to Protect Their Husband (Teacher)

Are you kidding me?

Twenty-seventh rank at such a young age!

The duty teacher jumped up in excitement, stepped onto the table, and bent down to stare at Tang San, who possessed such talent despite his young age.

"Hahaha, wonderful! Sir, you must let your young disciple enroll in our academy!"

The duty teacher could barely conceal the joy in his heart.

"What do you think?"

Tang San:???

Tang San stared blankly at the duty teacher, who had become so excited that he jumped up. What had just happened?

"We're here to enroll, and my other disciple, Xiao Wu, is also a twenty-fourth-rank Soul Grandmaster!" Shen Qingling said with a smile.

"What!" The duty teacher clutched his head in disbelief, his mouth hanging slightly open as though he were dreaming.

Two Soul Grandmaster disciples entering Heaven Dou Royal Academy—this was unprecedented.

If both disciples were Soul Grandmasters, then wouldn't this teacher be even more formidable? And he was such a young and handsome man, accompanied by a beautiful woman. He was surely extraordinarily gifted.

"May I ask, sir, what is your Soul Power rank?" the duty teacher asked.

The moment he finished speaking, an elegant laugh sounded from outside the door.

"Duty teacher, I don't think there's any need to ask that specifically, is there?"

Everyone looked toward the entrance and saw a blond-haired man slowly approaching. With his refined bearing, he too froze upon seeing Shen Qingling.

Qian Renxue stood at the entrance, her gaze fixed squarely on Shen Qingling, her heart pounding wildly.

It really was Big Brother! Ten years apart, he was even taller and more handsome than she remembered. His golden eyes were still dazzling. For a moment, she forgot the identity she was disguising herself as and simply stood there in a daze, even forgetting to move her feet.

Big Brother, Xue'er wants to throw herself into your arms and tell you of all the longing and grievances she's carried for so many years.

"Crown Prince?" Seeing Crown Prince Xue Qinghe staring blankly at someone, the duty teacher hurriedly reminded him in a low voice.

Qian Renxue suddenly came back to her senses, only then realizing she had lost her composure. She gave a light cough, swiftly concealed the delight in her eyes, resumed the Crown Prince's refined and steady demeanor, and said calmly:

"My apologies. This gentleman's bearing is so extraordinary that I was briefly distracted. Handle the enrollment as usual. This gentleman and lady, along with the two young friends, may follow me to meet the academy's three chief committee members."

"Yes, Crown Prince!" The duty teacher hurriedly agreed. His gaze toward Shen Qingling grew even more respectful. For the Crown Prince to receive him personally, this gentleman truly had an extraordinary background.

"This way." Qian Renxue made a welcoming gesture. Her posture was proper, and her businesslike manner was utterly flawless.

Shen Qingling followed, secretly amused. Her information network was quite efficient. They had only just arrived at the academy gates, yet this Crown Prince had already rushed over. She had clearly come sniffing after them.

Gu Yuena walked beside Shen Qingling and quietly tightened her hold on his arm.

She shot the "Xue Qinghe" ahead of them a sidelong glance, feeling deeply displeased. A grown man was staring so directly at her husband, like some infatuated creep. He clearly had bad intentions. She began to guard against him, discreetly tightening her grip as though declaring her claim.

She had to be wary of that kind of gaze. Rumor had it that some nobles played very perversely, so it was absolutely necessary to protect her husband.

Tang San also felt that Qian Renxue's earlier gaze had been far too strange.

The group passed through the corridors and headed deeper into the academy, toward the Education Committee's main hall. Qian Renxue walked in front, occasionally taking advantage of turning around to steal a quick glance at Shen Qingling.

Each glance brought her another measure of joy. After ten years, she could finally stand beside Big Brother and speak with him openly and properly again.

Shen Qingling took in all her little movements but didn't expose her. He wanted to see just how long this little angel, who had been lurking for years, intended to keep acting.

They remained silent along the way, but Qian Renxue still couldn't hold herself back. She cleared her throat and said:

"I am Xue Qinghe, Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. May I ask how to address you, sir?"

She deliberately slowed her speech, making sure he could hear every word clearly.

"My name is Shen Qingling. These two little ones are my disciples, Tang San and Xiao Wu. Both are seven-year-old Soul Grandmasters," Shen Qingling said with a smile.

Soul Grandmasters!

Qian Renxue's pupils abruptly contracted. Ordinarily, no one could reach such a realm, but under Big Brother's guidance, it was certainly possible.

"And this lady!"

Shen Qingling introduced her, "My wife, Gu Yuena!"

As he spoke, Gu Yuena wrapped both hands around Shen Qingling's arm. "Greetings, Crown Prince."

Though she had prepared herself, hearing Big Brother answer personally still left bitterness in her heart. After waiting ten years, was it all truly for nothing in the end?

Qian Renxue suppressed the bitterness in her heart and forced a smile. "You truly are a perfect match."

Tang San keenly noticed a trace of loneliness in the Crown Prince's expression.

No way, could it be that the Crown Prince has designs on Teacher!

No, absolutely not. Teacher is my teacher, and he'll become my father in the future. How could an outsider covet him!

He had to nip the other party's thoughts in the bud.

They said city folk played wild, and it was indeed true. If anything like this happened again, he had to stop it. If necessary, he'd make a scene, cry, or even threaten to hang himself—anything to protect Teacher.

Xiao Wu didn't understand, only feeling that the atmosphere had suddenly become very strange. It probably wasn't her imagination.

The five of them continued onward.

Upon entering the Education Committee's main hall, they found three people seated around a table discussing enrollment matters. They had been worrying over this year's admissions. When they looked up and saw Xue Qinghe bringing people inside, they hurriedly rose and cupped their hands. "Crown Prince."

Meng Shenji, the leader, had white hair and beard and a calm, steady aura. He was the academy's chief committee member. Bai Baoshan was solidly built, while Zhilin was somewhat lean. All three were Soul Douluo-level powerhouses.

"No need for formalities, gentlemen." Qian Renxue raised her hand slightly, her tone mild. "I was making a routine inspection of the academy today and happened to encounter several people here to enroll, so I brought them over."

Meng Shenji's gaze fell on Tang San and Xiao Wu. Seeing that the two looked only seven or eight years old, he was slightly stunned.

"Crown Prince, these two young friends are still quite young. I'm afraid they have yet to meet the admission requirements?"

Heaven Dou Royal Academy had an extremely high threshold. Ordinary students had to be at least twelve or thirteen years old, with Soul Power above rank twenty.

"They are young." Qian Renxue glanced sideways at Shen Qingling, a faint smile on her lips. "But these two are genuine Soul Grandmasters."

The moment those words fell, the hall instantly fell silent.

Meng Shenji and the other two widened their eyes at the same time, their faces filled with disbelief. Seven- or eight-year-old Soul Grandmasters? With talent like that, not only Heaven Dou Academy—even the entire continent could scarcely produce a few.

Zhilin was the first to recover, his fingertips trembling slightly. "Is what Your Highness says true?"

Qian Renxue sat in the seat of honor of the Education Committee and lightly tapped the armrest. "Could my words possibly be false? These people are genuine elites."

Big Brother's arrival at Heaven Dou Royal Academy was the academy's honor, but there was reason for their doubts. After all, no one in the world should be able to train disciples to this extent.
