A year and a half later, at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Lin Mo and Ye Lingling followed Director Xue directly to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
The scenery here is stunning. The lake at the foot of the mountain and the towering, thousand-meter-high mountain covered with various plants give it a secluded, idyllic feel.
Director Xue clearly knows this place very well.
The gatekeeper saw that Xue Sheng didn't ask any questions and let the three of them in directly.
Xue Sheng then led the two into the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
As he walked, he introduced the basic situation of the academy to Lin Mo and Ye Lingling.
" The Heaven Dou Royal Academy has quite a few students, over five hundred in total."
Xue Sheng pointed to the scattered buildings in the distance and said, "However, the vast majority of them are nobles from the Empire and the kingdoms below."
Thanks to their good family conditions, the Martial Soul and Innate Soul Power they inherited were both of superior quality.
Furthermore, their families are well-off, so they lack neither resources nor anything else. The only thing they lack is diligence in cultivation... which is completely unrelated to them.
He paused, shook his head, and his tone carried a hint of helplessness:
"To put it simply, many students, even those with the same Soul Power Level as Xiao Lin Xiao Lin, would probably still lose to him in a real fight. What they lack is that fighting spirit and practical experience."
This is also a point of criticism for many people at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. In the eyes of many, they have the reputation of being the number one academy in the Heaven Dou Empire, but they do not have the strength of the number one academy in the Heaven Dou Empire.
Lin Mo listened quietly, his gaze sweeping over the interior of the academy.
The road was wide, with neatly trimmed trees and lawns on both sides, and in the distance, you could see students wearing Heaven Dou school uniforms walking by in twos and threes.
They exuded a refined air unique to aristocratic students... but more than that, they were quite carefree.
Xue Sheng continued, "The students in the academy are divided into three levels according to their strength."
Those who have just entered the school or Soul Power is less than level 25 are considered to be at the Heavenly Micro Level.
Those who are level 25 or above, but not yet level 30, are at the Heavenly Supreme Level.
Once your Soul Power breaks through level 30, that's the highest level Heaven Dou Grade.
"The teacher ranking system is similar, but the requirements are higher." He added, "Level 40 in Soul Power is the minimum requirement to become a teacher."
Teachers at levels 40 to 50 are considered "Heavenly Micro Level teachers, those at levels 50 to 60 are considered "Heavenly Supreme Level teachers, and those above level 60 are considered "Heaven Dou Grade teachers.
Those who can be rated as Heaven Dou Grade are the true pillars of the academy. Excluding the three members of the Education Committee, the academy has a total of eight Heaven Dou Grade teachers.
Lin Mo nodded, indicating that he understood.
Ye Lingling remained quiet, following beside him, only occasionally glancing around.
As we walked, a building that appeared exceptionally solemn and dignified came into view.
Xue Sheng stopped and pointed to the building.
" The Education Committee is just ahead. The three members of the committee usually handle their affairs there. They made time for you today because they knew you were coming."
A mischievous smile appeared on his face as he looked at Lin Mo: "The three education commissioners are well-informed and knowledgeable; ordinary geniuses don't even catch their eye."
But this time, I guarantee they'll be very surprised, especially about you, Lin Mo.
Lin Mo and Ye Lingling exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of understanding in each other's eyes.
Lin Mo smiled but didn't reply, while Ye Lingling pursed her lips slightly but didn't say anything more.
They both knew the reason.
Over the course of a year and a half, neither of them neglected their cultivation.
Lin Mo's Soul Power was increasing at an alarming rate, rising from level 22 to level 28.
To be precise, he is at the peak of level 28, and he has already reached the threshold of level 29. It won't be long before he can naturally complete the breakthrough.
As Auxiliary System Soul Master, and especially Auxiliary System Tool Soul Master, Ye Lingling's cultivation speed was inherently slow, only increasing from level 24 to level 28, a rise of four levels.
Ye Lingling's gaze towards Lin Mo occasionally carried a hint of barely Frisk resentment.
Being caught up in Soul Power Level by someone several years younger than herself, even knowing that Lin Mo's cultivation speed was rather exaggerated, she couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Soon, the three arrived at the entrance of the Education Committee building.
Someone was already waiting there and respectfully led them inside.
The interior of the Education Committee was furnished in a simple yet grand style. The three were led to a spacious reception room, where three elderly men were already seated.
The three old men were all dressed in black robes, with strange patterns embroidered on them with gold thread.
These robes are not exclusive to them; only Soul Master of level 80 or above with the title of Soul Douluo can receive them from the Spirit Hall.
A custom-made formal suit representing one's identity, second only to the red formal suit of Titled Douluo.
Seated in the main seat was an elderly man of medium build, with a thin face, but he looked energetic and had a ruddy complexion.
To his left was a plump, middle-aged man, about four feet tall with a waist circumference of four feet.
The one on the right is the one who looks the most normal among the three.
Xue Sheng stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "I've brought Meng Shenji, the chief; Bai Baoshan, the second; Zhi Lin, the third."
From Xue Sheng's previous introduction, Lin Mo already knew that the three people in front of him were the core members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's Academic Affairs Committee, three Soul Douluo- level powerhouses.
Because the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is affiliated with the Heaven Dou Empire Imperial Family's royal family, its nominal dean is His Majesty the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Therefore, the position of dean was no longer established within the academy. These three individuals were the most important senior members of the academy, and they were responsible for deciding all important matters concerning the academy.
However, the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire also appointed a member of the royal family of high status to be in charge of the affairs here, namely Prince Xue Xing.
On important matters, both parties need to consult with each other.
Therefore, the three of them can be considered the true core of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy:
Chief Meng Shenji, Martial Soul Black Demon, Level 86 Eight-Ring Battle Soul Douluo (Control System );
Second place: Bai Baoshan, Martial Soul: Heavenly Star Furnace, Level 85, Eight-Ring Battle Soul Douluo (Defense System);
Zhi Lin, the third seat holder, possesses the Heavenly Azure Vine Martial Soul soul and is Level 83, eight-ring weapon Soul Douluo of the Control System.
This strength and lineup are enough to demonstrate the depth of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's teaching staff.
Meng Shenji smiled gently and waved his hand, " Xue Sheng, no need for formalities."
"These two must be Ye Linyuan's granddaughter and his newly accepted disciple Lin Mo, right?"
His gaze swept over Ye Lingling and Lin Mo, lingering particularly long on Lin Mo for a moment.
They knew more about Ye Lingling.
The inheritor of the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, with Ye Linyuan, a veteran eight-ring healing-type Soul Douluo, behind him, his own talent is not bad.
But they knew only so much about Lin Mo, that he was Ye Linyuan's newly accepted disciple and that he seemed to value him highly.
However, they were not very clear about the more specific details.
Xue Sheng kept the news about Lin Mo extremely secret. Even when repeatedly asked, Xue Sheng only said that he was preparing a big surprise for them.
