Soul Land: I Became Qian Xunji’s older brother

At this time, at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Dugu Yan also gathered with the Heaven Dou Academy people because of Zhu Zhuqing's arrival.

"Hehe, Zhuqing, don't worry. When that Dai Mubai dares to come in a few days, your Sister Yan will definitely not give him an easy time."

Dugu Yan said excitedly. She had long disliked those perverts from Shrek. They dared to come to their Heaven Dou Royal Academy. She thought these Shrek wastes were asking for death.

"Mm, but I still want to personally teach Dai Mubai a lesson."

Zhu Zhuqing said stubbornly. She was determined to beat Dai Mubai so badly that he wouldn't be able to get out of bed for half a year, and she now had Qian Xunfeng backing her.

Even if the Star Luo Empire came looking for trouble, Qian Xunfeng would protect her. This was the sense of security Qian Xunfeng gave her, something Dai Mubai could never provide.

Returning to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, a group of noble disciples were loitering at the entrance, like the gatekeepers of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

The golden gatekeeper, Xue Beng, loved to guard the entrance when he had nothing to do, acting as a fixed NPC, just waiting for Tang San and the others to arrive.

Seeing Dugu Yan and the others arrive, he naturally wouldn't mock them as he did in the original story. He wore a fawning smile and watched Dugu Yan pull Ye Lingling and Zhu Zhuqing inside.

"It's still Senior Sister Dugu Yan. From this far away, I feel like Senior Sister could slap me to death."

As scions of the Imperial Capital, they had long learned the skill of observing words and expressions. They naturally saw that Dugu Yan was very happy, and they didn't go up to force themselves into her presence.

After all, if they ruined her mood, wouldn't that be the end of them?

"That's right. From now on, all of you pay attention. You felt the aura from Senior Sister Dugu, right? If you meet anyone with a similar aura to Senior Sister, absolutely do not provoke them."

Xue Beng explained to his newly joined little followers. This gatekeeping session was also to let the new members of their Scion group know who they could provoke and who they couldn't.

"Understood, Boss."

One of them suddenly understood, then curiously asked, "Then, Boss, who can we afford to provoke?"

"Hehe, you'll have to listen to me slowly."

Xue Beng chuckled. How to tell if someone had a background was his strong suit, so he immediately spoke eloquently.

"If someone looks shifty-eyed and their eyes dart around, it means they have no experience and must be from out of town. If they're also lustful, staring at women, then they're the scum of the earth."

Xue Beng shared his accumulated experience. As for why he knew so much, it was because he had given up. With three older brothers still alive, why would he fight for the throne?

So he completely indulged in food, drink, and pleasure, not caring about anything else.

As if remembering something, Xue Beng said with a serious expression, "Also, never judge a person's background by their clothing, because some old folks like to wander around in ragged clothes."

"For example, Senior Sister Dugu's grandfather, Poison Douluo, likes to wander around in that tattered green trench coat when he has nothing to do. If you accidentally bump into him and provoke him, you're finished."

After a thorough explanation, the scions nodded, half understanding and half not, their eyes filled with the light of wisdom.

"Alas, you still haven't reached my level of perfection."

Looking at the people before him, Xue Beng clasped his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and spoke in a rather Versailles-like manner.

When it came to the way of the scion, he was the best in the entire Tiandou Empire. The road to development was still long.

Actually, Xue Beng had some selfish motives for doing this. It was to reduce the threat of him taking the throne and smoothly acquire a small territory outside, or become a prince in the Imperial City.

Building relationships with these noble scions at this time, all of whom were useless nobles lacking great wisdom, meant that no matter which brother became emperor, they wouldn't be touched.

After all, these were genuine nobles, with extensive connections behind them, such as whose elder served in the army, or whose elder worked in the Imperial Palace.

The Tiandou Empire was already plagued by internal strife and external threats. Without Spirit Hall, the Star Luo Empire would have already invaded. Internally, there were numerous kingdoms, big and small.

It was already dangerous. Unless the new emperor was a fool, he wouldn't expend great effort to eliminate these useless scions.

If they united, their lives might be more comfortable. This was also Xue Beng's preparation for the future. He didn't contend for the throne, but that didn't mean he wanted to be a prince always in danger.

His uncle, Xue Xing, now lived cautiously, fearing to displease Xue Ye and incur suspicion, only to be accused of treason the next day.

Snapping back to reality, Xue Beng looked at the people around him, a smile playing on his lips. He shouted loudly, "For the next few days, we will continue to study here. I will personally demonstrate to you how to identify who you can provoke and who you cannot."

"Good."

Everyone felt it was quite good, at least better than staying at home every day studying etiquette and memorizing books. Moreover, they could experience their noble status and wouldn't be scolded by their fathers.

...

As Xue Beng and the others had just left, the Shrek Academy group also arrived in Heaven Dou City.

And first took a rest.

"Teacher, why don't we change our clothes first? After all, we're going to a higher academy, and we should look the part."

Tang San naturally knew that entering Heaven Dou Royal Academy dressed like a country bumpkin would lead to mockery from Xue Beng, the hidden prince, and ultimately their humiliating expulsion from Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

So this time, he absolutely couldn't leave like that. After all, he still needed to thoroughly understand everything about Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Why Dugu Yan's strength had suddenly become formidable, and even her other teammates had shown different improvements.

He was already beginning to suspect that Dugu Bo had discovered the Immortal Herbs in this life, and that he might have even been reborn.

"Damn Dugu Bo, how dare he take my Immortal Herbs? He's practically asking for death!"

Thinking that his Immortal Herbs might be wasted, Tang San panted like an ox, pounding his chest with his fists as he shouted.

But then he remembered that Dugu Bo didn't know many Immortal Herbs, so Dugu Yan might have just gotten lucky.

This meant that Dugu Bo must still have quite a few Immortal Herbs, and the toxins in his body might only be better suppressed, not completely resolved.

"I hope so."

Tang San frowned deeply. The Immortal Herbs were crucial for Shrek Academy to win the All-Continent Soul Master Competition; there was no room for error.

Dugu Bo dared to covet his Immortal Herbs, which had already led Tang San to sentence Dugu Bo to death in his heart. This time, he would let Dugu Bo die in the great battle.

Dugu Yan dared to insult him so, and he would absolutely not let her off. He would make Dugu Yan pay the price for her actions.

"Indeed, Xiao San makes sense."

Dai Mubai also knew the subsequent events. Although he really wanted to beat up Xue Beng, the future Heaven Dou Emperor from his previous life, he suppressed his inner agitation for Tang San's plan.

He agreed somewhat, and as he looked at Tang San's robust body, a strange feeling always surged within him.
