Douluo: Star-Breaking Sword God

Chapter 9 Family, I found a cat and she wants to go home with me

How could Zhu Zhuqing, who had been trained by Ling Qianyao, be compared with her past self? Almost every time she attacked, she was attacking the opponent's weak points. The continuous attacks forced Fenghuolun to break out in cold sweats. He could only parry and could not fight back.

"Stop! I give up!" After seeing Zheng Kai being knocked down by Ling Qianyao, he was already horrified. He knew that he was no match for Ling Qianyao and Zhu Zhuqing, so he decisively chose to give up in order to avoid suffering greater humiliation.

At the same time, Dai Gonggong was still wrestling with Fei Guigui. Both of them were flushed, panting heavily, and veins bulged on their faces.

Dai Gonggong relied on the powerful strength of the White Tiger Martial Soul, while Fei Guigui relied on the defensive power of the Mammoth Martial Soul to fight hard. It was like a fight between two stupid kids.

As Dai Gonggong's humiliation intensified, Feiguigui finally couldn't bear it anymore and spat at Dai Gonggong. This action completely enraged Dai Gonggong. He roared, his strength increased suddenly, and pushed Feiguigui hard, causing him to stumble back.

The situation instantly became out of control, the two men wrestled with each other, punching and kicking each other, completely losing their proper composure.

With their own efforts, Dai Gonggong and Fei Guigui were finally pulled apart, but both of them were bruised and looked in a miserable state.

"Fuck you, you old man, you don't have the strength to push!"

"You fucked a useless eunuch, can you do that?"

The two continued to insult each other, completely ignoring the eyes of the people around them. Finally, the college instructor came forward speechlessly, took Guigui and the others away from the scene, and went to the infirmary for treatment.

"Cough cough."

In a somewhat weird atmosphere, the instructor announced that Ling Qianyao and his two companions were the winners and successfully won first place.

The dean personally came up to the three of them, stood in front of Ling Qianyao, and said solemnly, "Student Ling Qianyao, can you show me your martial spirit?"

Ling Qianyao nodded and used the Star Hiding skill to change the appearance of the Star-Breaking Sword. It was no longer an ordinary iron sword. A faint starlight mark was added to the sword guard.

"That..." the dean stroked his beard and nodded, "No wonder, no wonder. The soul master who awakened your martial soul must not have looked carefully enough. Your martial soul is definitely not an ordinary iron sword.

It should be that you have undergone positive mutation after formal training. There are such examples on the mainland. No wonder your training speed is so fast. You have reached level 4 in just four months and reached the realm of quasi-soul master.

There are stars on your sword's hilt, which looks similar to the stars on the legendary Star Crown Martial Spirit. I think it's better to call it the Star Sword, right?"

Ling Qianyao said, "I call it Shattered Star."

"Oh?" The dean nodded. "That's a good name."

He suddenly sighed, "Alas—the world is filled with brilliant minds, like a river of fish, and there is no end to them. Countless geniuses have emerged from among the common people. Even though there are Spirit Halls spread across the continent to help people awaken their spirits, there will always be those whose path is blocked by a useless spirit.

Fortunately, you are not buried."

He smiled at Ling Qianyao and took out the prize for this competition from his arms, "This is a ring-type storage soul guide, the reward for your individual competition. The internal space is not large, only 2.5 cubic meters, don't be disgusted.

There are also 3000 gold soul coins, which are your team battle rewards."

Ling Qianyao touched his chin and said with a smile, "Dean, is this the original reward?"

In this Douluo Continent when research on soul guides had not yet begun, a storage soul guide would be much more valuable than these 3000 gold soul coins, right?
Dean blinked, "Yeah, of course."

Ling Qianyao shrugged and took it, "Thank you, Dean."

He was very sure that this was the additional investment made by the dean after he saw his outstanding talent, and the original symbolic reward must have been thrown into a corner.

The dean smiled faintly, as if he saw through Ling Qianyao's thoughts, but did not point it out. He simply patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Student Ling Qianyao, talent is important, but hard work and opportunity are equally indispensable. The academy hopes that you can continue to maintain this spirit, bring honor to the academy in the future, and contribute to the peace of the continent. If you need anything, I can help you."

"Really?! Dean is so omnipotent?"

"Of course!" The dean smiled, stroking his beard.

"I want a single dormitory." Ling Qianyao said shamelessly, "Or maybe I can rent a place and go to school as a commuter next semester?"

"No problem." The dean agreed readily. Although in principle part-time students cannot have this privilege, that is only in principle.

In principle, soul masters still protect the people of mainland China.
"Do you need me to help you get the spirit ring?"

Ling Qianyao nodded. "Then I'll trouble you, Dean. However, I'd like to go after I return from vacation to save some time. Anyway, my soul power will increase even without obtaining soul rings."

The dean nodded and said, "Okay, you've learned the basic theory well. It's a deal then. Just come to my office when you get back from vacation."

After seeing off the dean and a group of teachers, he dismissed the fangirl who wanted to come up and be intimate with Ling Qianyao under Zhu Zhuqing's puzzled gaze.

The three of them walked along the bluestone road of the academy. Dai Gonggong asked, "Will soul power increase even without obtaining soul rings? How come I didn't know that?"

"This is part of the basic theory, but many people tend to overlook it. Why, you don't think that knowing this makes me a master of theory, do you?"

Dai Gonggong said a little embarrassedly, "Haha, I really thought so just now."

Well, another guy who is easily fooled by Yu Xiaogang.

After dividing the 3000 gold soul coins equally, Ling Qianyao looked at the other two and said, "I have to go home. See you in a month."

Zhu Zhuqing seemed to be hesitant to speak, looking conflicted.

Dai Gonggong was originally thinking about talking about making money in the future, but after glancing at Zhu Zhuqing's expression, he just waved his hand cheerfully and said, "Brother, see you later." As he walked away, he gave Ling Qianyao a look with an unbelievably obscene expression.

"You have something to tell me?"

Ling Qianyao crossed his arms over his chest and looked at Zhu Zhuqing with interest.

"Hmm," Zhu Zhuqing rubbed the corner of her clothes unconsciously with her fingers and gritted her teeth, "I want to go home with you. I know this request may be a bit sudden, but I really want to continue practicing with you during the holidays. Besides, there have been some things going on at home recently, so I don't want to go back for the time being."

Ling Qianyao frowned slightly upon hearing this. He could naturally sense the hidden meaning in Zhu Zhuqing's words, but he didn't ask any further questions. He simply said softly, "Zhuqing, will your family agree? After all, you're a member of the Xingluo Zhu family. If you don't come home during the holidays, won't the elders hold you accountable?"

Zhu Zhuqing laughed helplessly, remembering what Zhu Zhuyun had said to her a few days ago, and shook her head, "No, they don't care where I go."

"Oh?" Ling Qianyao narrowed his eyes and glanced in other directions.

He smiled and said, "Well, since you are alright, I will kindly take you in as a little kitty for a while."

Zhu Zhuqing smiled slightly, "Thank you."

On the way, Ling Qianyao looked at Zhu Zhuqing, whose ears were red, and his mind fluttered. Could it be that Zhu Zhuyun was acquiescing and exerting pressure?
"She wants to test me?"

In Ling Qianyao's memory, Zhu Zhuyun actually never had that kind of hatred towards Zhu Zhuqing. Otherwise, she would not have accompanied her for thousands of miles and ensured that she went to the Tiandou Empire.

Will my appearance attract the attention of this sister who is observing me secretly?
