Chapter 40 Returning to Shanhuo Academy
Wang Qi, who returned to Shanhuo Academy again, couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he looked at the ruins at the top of the mountain and the five scattered small buildings at the foot of the mountain.
One year, just one year later, Shanhuo Academy, which originally had the same standards as the Advanced Soul Master Academy, was now in such a mess.
The mimetic environment was gone, and so was the excellent cultivation environment. Even on campus, Wang Qi could only see a few students and teachers in twos and threes after leaving for a while.
However, the quality of this batch of students seems not to be comparable to the previous batch of Wang Qi's students. Most of them have just broken through to level ten.
"Hello classmate, you don't seem to be a student of our Shanhuo Academy, right?"
A man wearing a teacher's uniform from Shanhuo Academy stopped Wang Qi and asked in front of Wang Qi.
Wang Qi left Shanhuo Academy for a year. In this year, Wang Qi's soul power level increased by a full thirteen levels, he absorbed two thousand-year soul rings, and his body developed unusually.
At the age of twelve, his body is almost as good as that of an adult. If it weren't for the little baby fat on his face, people would probably regard Wang Qi as an adult.
Furthermore, after the transformation of Wang Qi's martial soul, his body has also undergone great changes. His hair color is like a flame burning into ashes, and his handsome facial features. This teacher is sure that if Wang Qi is a student of Shanhuo Academy, he must know him.
"I am an old student of Shanhuo Academy. My name is Wang Qi. By the way, is Principal Li here?" Wang Qi did not want to hide it and directly told the other party his identity. After all, in the next half year, if nothing happens, Wang Qi will be an intermediate soul master. Academy training.
"Wang Qi? Old student? Ah, I remembered. You were the best student in the academy, right? I've seen your portrait, what do you look like?"
"I encountered some opportunities while practicing abroad. Could you please take me to find Principal Li, teacher?"
Principal Li, the sixty-third level soul emperor, was in charge of evacuating the students from the rear when the Red King invaded Shanhuo Academy a year ago. He was finally rescued by Sword Dou Luo Chenxin and escaped with his life.
Wang Qi followed the teacher to the teaching building. Looking at the principal's office, which was even more primitive than a year ago, it would be strange for Wang Qi not to feel emotional.
Tuk-tuk-tuk. The teacher opened the door after getting Li Pingyuan's permission.
"It's Teacher Sun. What do you want from me? This classmate looks familiar. Have we met before?"
"Old Li, after just one year of not seeing each other, you have forgotten about me? Oh, you even specially left some fruit for me!"
Wang Qi bypassed Teacher Sun and went straight to the sofa, picked up the fruit from the fruit plate and ate it.
Shanhuo Academy is located at the junction of two kingdoms and one province. There are no towns around it. In addition, the number of students is sparse, and supply transportation is extremely troublesome. There is no shortage of basic living supplies and training supplies, but there is a shortage of fruits.
Wang Qi was quite famous when he was a student at Shanhuo Academy. He could even be said to be the best kid in the entire Shanhuo Academy. Those second-level soul masters were tortured by Wang Qi, a first-level soul master. Such a genius would not be able to do anything. There is no doubt that he is worthy of being won over by Li Pingyuan.
A year ago, Shanhuo Academy was attacked by the Red King. Li Pingyuan always thought that Wang Qi died in that crisis, but he did not expect that he was still alive.
"It's your boy. I thought you were dead. Teacher Sun, if nothing happens, you can go back first. This boy's name is Wang Qi, and he is a student of our Shanhuo Academy."
After sending Teacher Sun away, Li Pingyuan looked at Wang Qi with great interest, and suddenly asked: "What level is your soul power now? Why do I feel that I can't see through you?" Li Pingyuan looked at Wang Qi, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became. , Although Wang Qi's combat power a year ago was ridiculously strong, it was not to the extent that Li Pingyuan could not see through him, but now, he could not see through it at all.
Unable to see through Wang Qi's soul power level, if it weren't for Wang Qi's familiar movements of taking fruits from the fruit plate and eating them, Li Pingyuan wouldn't even dare to recognize Wang Qi.
"I was lucky. I was captured by the Great Soul Fighting Arena. Later, I was given some compensation. I am now a Soul Lord."
Seeing Wang Qi's casual expression, Li Pingyuan was stunned.
With Li Pingyuan's soul power level and identity, he is really not qualified to know that whale glue can increase the absorption period of soul rings, but Li Pingyuan has a background. He is backed by the Tiandou Royal Family, the Tiandou Royal Knights, and the Tiandou Guards, who are directly controlled by the Tiandou Royal Family. The leadership team still knows some of the functions of whale gum.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, your luck is really scary. Did you get caught as a hunk? I wish I had been caught as a hunk back then. I am at least a soul saint now."
"I'm angry just looking at you. You are now a Soul Lord. What are your plans next? Do you plan to join the Royal Knights or the Guards? Don't look at my Mountain Fire Academy being attacked by Soul Beasts, but the connections are still there. , No matter where you go with your talent, there will be people rushing to get it.”
Wang Qirao said with interest: "Can't I join Tiandou Royal Academy?"
"Tian Dou Royal Academy? What's so good about that, a group of second-generation ancestors who only know how to have fun." Li Pingyuan said disdainfully, and then explained to Wang Qi the difference between the guards and the knights, allowing Wang Qi to choose.
Wang Qi had heard these clichés countless times during his year at Shanhuo Academy. It might be exaggerated to recite them from ear to ear, but the rules were probably still clear.
"No way, Lao Li, you told me at the beginning that you planned to train Mountain Fire Academy into a high-level soul master academy to compete with the Blazing Fire Academy among the old four-element academies. What? You were upset by the soul beast. Has it become lower?”
Li Pingyuan was silent, and all he could say in response to Wang Qi was a wry smile. There was nothing he could do about it. The Mountain Fire Academy had suffered too much from being attacked by the spirit beast this time.
Not to mention the hardware losses, let’s just talk about the dead college teachers and Li Pingyuan’s comrades, three soul kings, fifteen soul sects, nearly forty soul masters, and several students. It is precisely because of these losses that Tian The Dou Royal Family cannot solve it, otherwise the current Shanhuo Academy would not be as dilapidated as it is now.
"Most of the teachers died in the battle a year ago, and most of the students have graduated and gone to Blazing Fire City. The current specifications of Shanhuo Academy are almost the same as those of ordinary intermediate soul master colleges."
"You should leave as soon as possible. Duhunzun, staying here is a waste of time."
There was loneliness and regret in Li Pingyuan's tone. Loneliness meant that his wishes were shattered, while regret meant that he did not lead his old comrades to evacuate in advance.
"Okay, Old Li, don't be sad here. It's the time of the Continental Senior Elite Soul Master Competition. Where else can I go?"
"As for what you said about joining the Guards and the Knights, to be honest, I'm not very interested. I'll practice with you for half a year first, and then wait until the continent's senior elite soul master competition is over in half a year."
"There is no guarantee that the teams in the Tiandou Empire will suffer a disastrous defeat in this Soul Master Competition. When the time comes, you can directly send a twelve-year-old Soul Master there. The Tiandou Imperial Family may not be willing to grant you funds to rebuild the Mountain Fire Academy. ”
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go up the mountain and have a look. The scene a year ago really scared me. Even if I take a look, I still feel unwilling to do so."
