I am Li Murong
"Alright, then you can help me record the students who enrolled today," Jun Yi said directly.
"Okay." Li Murong nodded.
" Shuang'er, take Xiaozhi to the academy. Niannian is here too, you two sisters can meet." Jun Yi said to Xu Shuang'er.
Upon hearing this, Xu Shuang'er nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take Xiaozhi there right away."
Xu Shuang'er, holding Xu Xiaozhi's hand, was about to walk into the academy when Xu Xiaozhi stopped first. She walked to Li Murong's side and whispered, "If you're tired, just tell your great-uncle. He's a very nice person and won't make things difficult for you."
Li Murong smiled slightly and gently stroked Xu Xiaozhi's head. "I understand. You go first, I'll come find you in a bit."
"Mmm." Xu Xiaozhi nodded and left with her mother, Xu Shuang'er.
After the two entered the campus, Jun Yi offered his chair to Li Murong and said, " Uncle Ning, please have a seat."
"Don't call me by that name anymore. Ning Fengzhi is already dead. I am Li Murong now." Li Murong sat in the chair with a smile, looking indifferent.
Jun Yi nodded, then moved another chair and sat down next to him. "I didn't expect us to meet so soon. I thought you wouldn't look for Rongrong until you were an adult."
"Please release your Martial Soul," Li Murong said to the boy who had registered. Then, he picked up his brush and, while writing, said, "I don't want to either, but sometimes you really have to believe in fate."
"I'm sorry, although your Soul Power has reached the required level, your age is not up to standard."
"Indeed, I never imagined that the child Rongrong picked up casually outside would actually be the reincarnation of Xu Rong'er," Jun Yi exclaimed.
"Yes, in her past life, she was her mother; in this life, she is her mother again. Perhaps this is fate," Li Murong sighed. "Please release your Martial Soul."
"I heard a while ago that the son of the wealthy Li family had suddenly fallen in love with the daughter of a tea shop owner. I thought it was a bit strange at the time, but I never expected it to be you."
"Yes, I was strolling around Heaven Dou City that day when I unexpectedly saw Rongrong and Uncle Gu in a teahouse. I sat down and had a cup of tea, and then I saw Rong'er there. Although her appearance was completely different from before, the resonance of our souls is undeniable."
A faint smile appeared on Li Murong's face. "Your child has passed. Please write his name in this column, and then proceed to the academy to pay the registration fee."
"By the way, Rongrong is almost thirty, so why does she still look the same as when she was 20?" Li Murong asked Jun Yi.
"It was Sister Dong'er who did it. When she erased Rongrong's memories, she injected some Divine Power into her body, maintaining her appearance and lifespan of up to a thousand years. After the God War ended, we fused her with the power of a Godhood. Now, although Rongrong is not a god, she is the only immortal person in the Douluo Continent," Jun Yi explained.
"A divine battle... It's a pity I died too soon and couldn't witness this earth-shattering battle firsthand," Li Murong said with a smile. "I'm sorry, your child's Innate Soul Power is below our academy's admission standard."
"What's so interesting? It's just one act after another, seeing who has the most trump cards." Jun Yi stretched while lying in the chair, then pinched his ear with one hand.
"Ouch, that hurts." Jun Yi turned around and saw Dugu Yan with a "smile" on her face. "Well, you actually let a child help you. You really know how to slack off."
" Sister Yanyan, let go first, so many people are watching," Jun Yi said, surrendering.
"Hmph." Dugu Yan released her grip, turned to look at Li Murong sitting in the chair, and smiled, "I didn't expect this Li family lad to be so good-looking. He and Xiaozhi are quite a good match."
"You must be Dugu Yan, Director Dugu. This student greets you, Director." Li Murong stood up and said respectfully.
Dugu Yan nodded, looking the boy up and down. "What's your name?"
" Li Murong, Li from the Li family, Mu from water and wood, Rong from grass and wood," Li Murong answered honestly.
"A good name." Dugu Yan felt that the young man in front of her had a strange aura that made her feel very comfortable.
Jun Yi then asked, " Sister Yanyan, what brings you here all of a sudden? Are you done with your work?"
"I've almost finished with my own business and wanted to come help you, but it seems you need to find a good helper." Dugu Yan picked up the list of registered students that Li Murong had written down, including their names, ages, and Soul Power.
Meanwhile, Li Murong began to greet the next student who had registered.
"Look at that kid, he's more diligent than you at everything he does," Dugu Yan complained.
"I can't compare to him at all; he's a genius," Jun Yi said with a smile.
Dugu Yan was somewhat surprised. Jun Yi's standards were very high, and anyone he considered a genius must be extraordinary.
The next second, she pulled Jun Yi up and then sat down herself. "Go take care of Niannian and the others. I'll handle the registration."
She turned to look at Li Murong and said, " Murong, right? Why don't you go for a walk around the academy with him?"
"Thank you, Director." Li Murong rose slightly and followed Jun Yi.
"Come with me."
Jun Yi led Li Murong into the academy, whereupon Li Murong began to complain, " The Heaven Dou Royal Academy is now considered the second-best academy on the continent, so why does it require a director to come in person for admissions? Can't they hire more teachers?"
Jun Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Actually, Sister Yanyan was just making up an excuse; she mainly didn't want to see Shuang'er."
Li Murong instantly understood Jun Yi's meaning. The relationship between Ning Rongrong and Jun Yi was ambiguous and unclear. As Jun Yi's wife, Dugu Yan naturally did not want to face her.
"Actually, Sister Yanyan has said more than once that she wants me to restore Rongrong's memories so that I can give her a good future. But I have refused every time."
"In my opinion, Rongrong's past experiences were far too painful. Forgetting them is actually a good thing. Besides, isn't Shuang'er doing just fine now?"
Jun Yi turned to look at Li Murong, wanting to see his attitude.
"Yes, to see Rongrong living such a happy life, I, as her father, can die without regrets," Li Murong sighed.
As they spoke, the two arrived inside the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, where a figure appeared before Jun Yi. " Oscar? What brings you here?"
Oscar's face lit up with surprise upon seeing Jun Yi. " Jun Yi, you're finally back! I've been waiting for you for so long."
