"Send me the detailed intelligence."
Not long after, a far more comprehensive dossier was placed on Qian Renxue's desk.
It even included information about the village Su Cheng came from—Wangsu Village—as well as details regarding Notting Junior Soul Master Academy.
"Three-ring Soul Elder, with both the second and third soul rings at the thousand-year level. Martial soul: a top-tier sword-type weapon martial soul…"
Qian Renxue's phoenix-like eyes narrowed slightly, her heart growing ever more certain that this person was the teacher she had long yearned for day and night.
There were simply too many similarities between them.
Aside from age and background not matching, everything else—appearance, martial soul, soul rings, temperament—was completely identical.
Although she could not understand the logic behind it, nor whether another world truly existed, these two people must share some kind of connection—or rather, they were fundamentally the same person!
"Immediately follow me to Notting City!"
"What?" Snake Lance Douluo froze slightly. "But the situation on the Heaven Dou City side—"
"I said now. Leave immediately with me. Wait—"
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly frowned.
Snake Lance keenly noticed that his young mistress's state was off.
Her aura fluctuated violently. A hazy golden light seemed to flash through her eyes, and her expression became dark and uncertain.
"Young Mistress, what's wrong?"
From an angle he could not see, Qian Renxue's feet had already been stained with a layer of golden light, which spread upward, gradually reaching her ankles, sharply distinct from the black fabric covering her calves.
"It's nothing. You may go out first."
"But—"
"I said it's nothing. Go out first," Qian Renxue waved her hand impatiently. "Remember to close the door."
"…Yes."
With no other choice, Snake Lance withdrew from the room and closed the door, though he did not go far, instead silently standing not far outside the study.
Only after he left did Qian Renxue collapse weakly into the chair behind her.
"What are you doing?!"
"I know what you're thinking." Another voice sounded deep within her heart. "Don't do this."
"Do what? Would I harm him?"Qian Renxue tugged at the corner of her mouth, revealing a somewhat strange smile as she retorted inwardly.
"That still won't do. If he remembers everything, he will naturally come to find me."
"Why wait for him to come? And besides, he doesn't even know our current identity. He's only a Soul Elder now. Just go straight to him and make him stay with us forever—wouldn't that be better?!"
"I don't need that." The other voice grew colder.
"Heh…"Qian Renxue let out a disdainful snort.
"Cowardly. Hesitant. That's you—the Angel inheritor who doesn't dare face reality.You were like this with Bibi Dong, like this with the matters of Spirit Hall, and even with the布局 in the Heaven Dou Empire, everything has been dragged out endlessly.
"You only know how to endure, only know how to retreat, clinging to that laughable bottom line of yours. You really are worthy of being Qian Daoliu's granddaughter."
Her tone grew increasingly gloomy.
"Look at what you've gained by doing this!
"You've gained Bibi Dong pushing further and further, gained the nobles becoming more and more insatiable.
"What—this time you're retreating so far that you're even letting go of Su Cheng?!"
"I will naturally not let go."
The golden light on her body steadied, no longer fluctuating as violently as before, yet the speed at which it spread upward gradually increased.
"The teacher is still young now. Regardless of what he's thinking, it's not something I should interfere with. He has his own choices, and I have my own path to walk."
Qian Renxue frowned slightly, momentarily at a loss.
Although for most of these years she had been the one controlling the body, that was only because the dominant personality was willing to let go.
In reality, her strength was still slightly inferior to the other party's. What's more, the other side's will was firm at this moment. In this confrontation, she instead fell into the disadvantage.
"..."
After a moment of silence, she ultimately chose to compromise.
"I won't go looking for him—but I have one condition."
"..."
The golden light on Qian Renxue's body completely subsided, and her aura finally returned to perfect calm.
"If we encounter him in the future, at a critical moment, don't get in the way here."
Su Cheng naturally had no way of knowing what had happened on Qian Renxue's side.
After arriving near Heaven Dou City, he did not linger and went straight to Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
As the gathering place of the empire's geniuses, countless eyes were focused here. It was closest to the empire's center of power, making it the most convenient and efficient entry point.
Of course, many students had gotten in through connections and noble titles.
But that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. These people had extraordinary family backgrounds—used well, they were also valuable resources.
Moreover, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was located between the academy and Heaven Dou City. There might even be a chance to establish contact with Ning Fengzhi.
Based on Su Cheng's understanding of Ning Fengzhi, as long as he displayed sufficient talent, he would be able to gain the other party's support in many matters in the future. This could be considered a kind of inheritance tradition of a top-tier sect centered around support-type martial souls.
It didn't take long before Su Cheng arrived at the foot of a thousand-meter-high mountain. This was the gateway to Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"May I ask who you are, and what business you have with our academy?"
Ten soul masters around eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in goose-yellow academy uniforms, stood not far away. Upon seeing Su Cheng, two of them stepped forward to inquire.
Over the years, relying on certain potion formulas, Su Cheng had earned a considerable sum from Sol, the black-market head in Notting City. His attire was quite refined.
Combined with the fact that, although still young, he unconsciously exuded a trace of grandmasterly bearing, the two students' attitudes were extremely polite.
"I graduated from a junior soul master academy not long ago and wish to join your academy. May I ask what requirements you have for enrollment?"
As he spoke, he raised his right hand. Accompanied by the rise of one yellow and two purple soul rings, a longsword martial soul appeared in his palm.
"You—this?!"
Seeing this extraordinary soul ring configuration, coupled with his three-ring Soul Elder cultivation, the two widened their eyes in shock.
Looking again at the person before them—clearly much younger than themselves—they immediately dared not neglect him.
"Please wait a moment. I'll go invite a teacher from the academy."
On the Douluo Continent, strength reigned supreme. Power and talent spoke for everything.
With Su Cheng's current level of strength, he could even directly obtain a noble title from the Heaven Dou Empire.
The moment they saw his martial soul, the two completely lost any pride they had as students of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. They hurried off to summon a nearby instructor, while other students in the distance began whispering among themselves.
Su Cheng didn't have to wait long. Along the shaded mountain path, a figure rushed over swiftly and stopped in front of him. The two students had long since been left far behind.
This man wore a silver fitted outfit and looked to be in his fifties. His face was round like a silver plate, with thick brows and large eyes. His hands were clasped behind his back, giving him the air of a seasoned expert.
"Child, are you the one who wishes to join Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
He asked softly, yet his gaze constantly drifted toward Su Cheng's martial soul, an uncontrollable trace of astonishment shining in his eyes.
