Watching Dugu Yan's retreating figure, Lin Qingchen felt that she had just given a slightly... auntie-like smile?

Did he bump into something?

You can even ship this?!

Lin Qingchen was somewhat speechless. Something seemed off about this Douluo Continent. Did the God of Love really possess such authority?

Beside her, Ye Lingling's face was flushed, and she suppressed the urge to leave, so she sat down next to Lin Qingchen.

But as she sat there, she actually got used to it. Although she was still a little awkward, at least there was no abnormality on her face.

After defeating Liu Qingfeng, Lin Qingchen was now completely unmatched in the entire Heaven Dou Grade.

Although there were still a few Soul Ancestor left, after he swiftly killed one of Soul Ancestor, the rest of them completely lost their will to fight upon seeing him and surrendered without a fight.

In this way, Lin Qingchen successfully broke through the entire academy, leaping from the Heaven Wei Grade to become the number one Heaven Dou Grade person.

This achievement is unprecedented and unlikely to be repeated.

After the competition, feeling awkward about his position, Prince Xue Xing had Meng Shenji, as the chief instructor, present the award to Lin Qingchen on behalf of the academy.

Calling it an award isn't entirely accurate, as it was simply a beautifully crafted badge.

Looking at the young man before him, Meng Shenji patted Lin Qingchen on the shoulder with satisfaction. "Not bad, you really didn't disappoint us. However, I never expected you to be able to defeat those Soul Ancestor. It's quite a surprise to us old men."

"Is there any extra reward?" Lin Qingchen asked casually.

Meng Shenji chuckled, "A reward? Of course there won't be one. After all, you're the number one at the Heaven Dou Grade, and the reward you've received is already the maximum."

Lin Qingchen understood; he knew there would be no extra reward, and he had only asked casually earlier.

"But..."

Oh? Could there really be some unexpected surprise?

Lin Qingchen looked over.

Meng Shenji smiled, then changed the subject, saying, "However, I can let you go to the academy's treasury and choose one item yourself."

Here it comes, the classic scene from the novel.

The protagonist finds a buried artifact or a fragment of a legacy in the treasure vault of a certain faction.

Lin Qingchen didn't have much hope of finding anything good, but it would be nice to take the opportunity to see if there were any Wonder Seed inside.

"Then thank you very much, Committee Member Meng," Lin Qingchen said, cupping his hands in thanks.

"Haha, no need to thank me, you earned all of this through your own hard work."

After saying that, he said softly, "By the way, His Highness the Crown Prince wishes to see you alone. Please come with me."

Lin Qingchen's eyes narrowed.

I never expected that I would actually be targeted by Qian Renxue.

However, he did not panic; he simply dealt with whatever came his way.

Following Meng Shenji's footsteps, the two wandered around the academy in a maze of twists and turns, finally arriving at the outside of a luxuriously decorated small building.

Looking at the small building in front of him, Lin Qingchen was somewhat surprised.

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy occupies a vast area, not only within Heaven Dou City but also extending to a large mountain range outside the city, without any city walls in between. The entire area is under the academy's control, without even any inspection, which is enough to show how lofty the academy's status is.

In contrast, the architecture within the college is extremely luxurious.

But the small building in front of us stands out even among this cluster of magnificent buildings, almost like a palace.

Seeing Lin Qingchen's surprise, Meng Shenji smiled slightly and explained, "Hehe, this is a building exclusively for the royal family. Normally, no one enters or leaves. When His Majesty comes to the academy on Xue Ye, he stays here. Therefore, this small building was built entirely according to the regulations of the royal palace."

I see, that explains it.

After all, they are royalty, so it's not surprising that they would put on such a luxurious outfit.

"Let's go, His Highness the Crown Prince has been waiting for you for a long time."

After saying that, Meng Shenji led Lin Qingchen inside.

Finally, he knocked on a door.

Please come in.

Meng Shenji said in a low voice, "You go in, I won't."

Lin Qingchen pushed open the heavy door and stepped inside.

Judging from the appearance, this should be a front hall, with only a table of medium size and a few chairs around it.

Xue Qinghe was sitting in the central seat, the only person in the entire hall.

Of course, even Lin Qingchen could guess that there were definitely Titled Douluo spying on them from the sidelines.

Lin Qingchen stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"No need for formalities, Qingchen. I'm a few years older than you, just call me Brother Qinghe."

Since the other party had said so, Lin Qingchen seized the opportunity and immediately replied, "Okay, Brother Qinghe."

Xue Qinghe adopted a humble and courteous demeanor, and said gently, "From the moment we met, I knew you were a rare genius, and now that I see you, it's true. I think you're even more powerful than the so-called Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall. In the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, you will definitely be able to lead our Heaven Dou Royal Academy to victory."

Seeing that Xue Qinghe immediately thought of the upcoming Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, Lin Qingchen didn't know what to say to him.

Do you really hate the Spirit Hall that much?

But thinking about it, those so-called Golden Generation were all Bibi Dong's confidants, so it would be strange if Qian Renxue had any good feelings towards them.

"I'm sorry, I was thinking too far ahead. Qingchen, your most important task right now is to focus on your cultivation."

Xue Qinghe quickly came to his senses.

He waved his hand, turned around and went to the tea table, preparing to pour a cup of black tea for the two of them.

But as soon as he turned around, Lin Qingchen's eyes widened.

Because Xue Qinghe's back was radiating light!

This is... Wonder Seed?

Lin Qingchen was somewhat bewildered. Wasn't the location of this Wonder Seed a bit too odd? It couldn't be seen from the front, but it could be seen from the back. So where exactly was the original?

Knowing Xue Qinghe's true identity, and knowing that there were definitely Titled Douluo lurking in the shadows, Lin Qingchen didn't dare to act rashly and could only observe from a distance.

However, even after Xue Qinghe returned with two cups of black tea, he still couldn't figure out what was going on.

Watching the light disappear behind Xue Qinghe, Lin Qingchen sighed inwardly.

It's so frustrating to have such a Wonder Seed right in front of you, seemingly within reach but completely out of reach, a script you can only look at.

"Qingchen, what are you looking at? Is there something behind me?" Xue Qinghe asked doubtfully.

"It's nothing." Lin Qingchen shook his head. He couldn't very well tell Xue Qinghe that he was the one observing what the Wonder Seed actually were, could he?

"All right."

Xue Qinghe didn't take it to heart and didn't make a fuss about it.

He took a token from his waist and handed it to Lin Qingchen.

Lin Qingchen took the token. He saw that the front of the token was engraved with a Swan, and the back had the character "snow," clearly a symbol of royal status.

"This is my Crown Prince's token. If you need anything in the future, you can come directly to the Eastern Palace to find me."

Lin Qingchen nodded and put the token away.

Just then, another voice rang out from outside the hall.

"Qinghe, may I and Uncle Bone come in?"
