Chapter - 10

Douluo Continent, Barracks Kingdom, Soutou Outskirts.

Close to the entrance of Soutou Town, we can see Rey and the children have reached there using the portal to get there quickly. This action is also done by Rey so as not to attract a lot of attention that she doesn't want. Arriving there, the children looked around in awe while Rey immediately used her ability to summon a clone.

"You open the school registration booth. Don't be too flashy and don't draw too much attention. If possible, find a place far enough from the school area so as not to cause trouble while we are here."

"I see, Boss." His clone nodded and immediately disappeared from the location carrying out orders from the main body.

"Teacher why would you do such a thing? Wouldn't it be better to open an attractive stand for more people to enroll in the school?" Lin Qingzhu who was in close proximity to Rey and his Clone at the time of speaking became curious and immediately asked.

"It's not that I don't want to attract a lot of students into the school. However, there are some students who are not suitable to join our school. Hmmm… Examples are children born to noble families. Many children born to noble families or clans whether large or small have an arrogant attitude. Indeed there are some children who are different and do not have that attitude. But the majority of the children who were born and raised in a clan or child of a noble had an arrogant attitude. I don't want a disciple like that."

Rey paused for a moment and looked at her four students who were already watching her as she explained.

"Remember, Master will remind you of this. Even if you guys already have very strong power in the future. Has a lot of things that most people don't have. You must never be arrogant. Because whatever you get is only a loan to you. There is no such thing as eternal, surely in time it will disappear too. Even for Master it is like that. Whatever Master has now it is not possible to always be with Master. Surely in time all that this Master possessed would disappear. Do you understand?" Rey asked in a deep and serious tone.

"We understand, Master." The other four nodded.

"Teacher, then, if there is a child who comes from a noble family or descendant of a large clan who has a kind heart and does not look down on others. Will Master accept that person as a disciple?" Urek asked curiously.

"Yes. The teacher will accept it. Actually you will also have a friend from a big Clan who will join you after this."

"A new friend? Who's Master?" Mazino asked excitedly.

"She is the Granddaughter of Qian Douli."

"Master Qian's Granddaughter?" The four of them were shocked to hear this news.

"Yes. But still not necessarily. Because at this time Master Qian still had to discuss this with her Granddaughter. If the Granddaughter agrees, it's likely that you two will become friends in the future."

"Why do we still have to talk about it? If it was me; I'll definitely accept it straight away." Mazino said confidently. It wasn't just him the other three nodded.

"Well, there are some things the two of them need to talk about before making a decision. Ok, our conversation ends here first. Let's go inside and go shopping for necessities."

The four children nodded enthusiastically. They all walked out of the forest, registered entry by paying one silver coin each person to enter Soutou Town and started to go shopping for the necessities they needed.

The world currency Douluo is divided into three. Bronze, Silver and Gold. The value of ten Bronze is equal to the value of one silver, the value of ten silver is equal to the value of one gold. It could be said that the value of the most precious gold in the Douluo Continent was even one gold coin could be used by a small high-ranking family in the village to meet their one month's needs specifically for food.

********

Spirit City, Supreme Whale Hall.

In the Supreme Whale Hall, we could see that there were two people there. These two people were women with very beautiful appearances. The first woman was the Pope of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong who was sitting in her seat while the second woman was a woman with a well-built appearance, long silky blonde hair, fair skin, purple pupils, and wearing a dress made of silk. The appearance of these two women is almost the same.

The second woman was Qian Douli's Granddaughter, Qian Renxue.

"The plan to bring down the Heaven Dou Empire has been cancelled." Qian Renxue said with a complicated tone and eyes stared at Bibi Dong.

"Oh? So? Then, no problem. You can go back." Bibi Dong's eyes showed a kind of indifference regarding the cancellation of the plan.

Previously if Bibi Dong had not known of the changing world rules, Bibi Ding would have been furious and shocked by the cancellation of the plan they had drawn up many years ago. However, due to changes happening to the world and anyone who possessed the strength of a Title Douluo had the qualifications to ascend to the upper realms. He didn't care about the plan anymore.

"You don't seem to care about the plan. Weren't you the one who insisted on carrying out this plan?" Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed as she stared at Bibi Dong.

"Hmph! Why should I care about such a plan again? With the rules of the world having changed, why carry out such a secret plan."

In contrast to Bibi Dong who didn't care, the moment Qian Renxue heard Bibi Dong's words she was taken aback as her eyes opened wide looking at Bibi Dong, "Y-you know that?"

"Why? Do you think only you guys can find out about the changing rules of this world?" Bibi Dong said in a mocking tone as she looked at Qian Renxue with a cold gaze.

"I underestimated you too much, Bibi Dong. I never thought you could find out this information so quickly."

At the same time, suddenly a man appeared beside Qian Renxue. This man was Qian Douli who had returned from the Great Star Dou Forest to do the task assigned to him while discussing something with his Granddaughter.

"Grandfather" Qian Renxue was overjoyed to see Qian Douli coming.

Qian Douli just nodded while smiling gently at Qian Renxue while stroking her head gently. Then his gaze turned to Bibi Dong and said, "Why are you behaving like that to Xiao Xue, Bibi Dong? You are Mother—"

"Don't talk nonsense! I will never admit he is my son." Bibi Dong immediately said in a cold tone as her soul force was released. But with Qian Douli's level of strength, it didn't affect him at all.

Hearing these words from Bibi Dong, even if she knew that Bibi Dong did not recognize her as her child, she was devastated as she lowered her head.

Qian Douli frowned at Bibi Dong's words. However, she could not take direct action on him because Bibi Dong was still Qian Renxue's mother. If Qian Douli took direct action against Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue would definitely be very sad. However. As much as Bibi Dong hated Qian Renxue, Qian Renxue had never hated Bibi Dong. She always wanted Bibi Dong to think of herself as her son. But neither of them knew that actually deep down in Bibi Dong's heart, she really loved Qian Renxue as her Princess. Only, he still couldn't get rid of the past memories. This made it very difficult for him to accept Qian Renxue as his daughter.

That's not the only reason why Qian Douli didn't take action against Bibi Dong. During Bibi Dong's tenure, the percentage of the Spirit Hall was better than when she was directly ruled by her son.

"You two have nothing to do with me anymore. Please get out of here." Bibi Dong's eyes flashed a cold touch as they stared at Qian Douli and Qian Renxue.

"Okay. If that's your wish, His Holiness the Pope. I really wanted to leave here together with Xiao Xue. However, there is still something I want to tell you. The Great Star Dou Forest had now attached an extremely powerful array. The array was set up by the Lord of the Universe Guardians to maintain the safety of the soul beasts. There are rules that the Lord Guardian of the Universe has laid down for us humans who wish to hunt soul beasts. We can still hunt soul beasts, but committing murder without any clear intention and killing out of intent to obtain soul bones will be directly attacked by the array. Don't look down on the array, the power of the array can even kill a rule in just three hits. The Spirit Hall had to immediately announce this information so that these Soul Masters in the Douluo Continent would not be careless and commit murderous acts without any clear intention of causing them to be killed outright. I hope you understand how important this information is, His Holiness the Pope. Because if that's the case, I'm afraid that your people will do strange things that result in fatal losses."

Without waiting for Bibi Dong to reply, Qian Douli directly led Qian Renxue out of the Supreme Whale Hall towards the Douluo Hall to discuss something.

Hearing this news issued by Qian Douli made Bibi Dong very surprised, " This… the Array in the Great Star Dou Forest? The person who installed it was Lord Guardian of the Universe? Does that mean the Lord of the Universe Guardians is in this world? Could it be that the old man had just met him before?"

"Your Excellency the Pope, is the information that the Offering Qian Douli said true?" Suddenly Ghost Douluo along with Chrysanthemum Douluo appeared in the room with faces full of surprise after listening to the information that Qian Douli gave.

This Ghost Douluo's voice instantly woke Bibi Dong from her thoughts as she herself frowned, "I don't know. But, if that's true. This should be told to all Soul Masters in the Douluo continent." Bibi Dong paused and stood up from her seat, "Elder Ghost Douluo, Elder Chrysanthemum Douluo. Immediately prepare the carriage along with some troops. We will go to the Great Star Dou Forest to verify this matter."

"We understand, Your Highness the Pope" Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo saluted and retreated to carry out the orders Bibi Dong had given them.

******

Spirit Hall, Douluo Palace.

Qian Douli and Qian Renxue suddenly appeared there followed by the other Elders of the Douluo Hall who had been waiting for Qian Douli's arrival to ask for news and information regarding the conversation he and the Universe Guardians had.

"Grandfather, is it true what you said earlier?" Before the Golden Crocodile Douluo could speak, Qian Renxue first asked because she wanted to get the full details.

Qian Douli didn't hide it and nodded, "That's right."

"First Brother what is the meaning of the question asked by Xiao Xue? Does that have anything to do with your encounter with the Lord of the Universe Guardians?" The Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately asked.

Qian Douli began to explain every piece of information from the conversation he had with Rey. The face of Palace Elder Douluo was shocked to learn the information related to the array being installed along with the rules that Rey had set. Qian Douli continued to explain to them all that he had experienced during his visit to the school with great pride. The thing that Qian Douli was most proud of was when he mentioned that he had been appointed as one of the Masters there and could freely use the existing facilities which made the Douluo Palace Elders instantly become very envious.

Even complementing the explanation given by him, Qian Douli showed his soul ring combination which had turned into six black and three red soul rings which previously only had a combination of eight black and one red soul rings.

"Eldest Brother, is there still a place to become a Teacher in that school?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked excitedly because he also wanted to enter and become a Master there. Golden Crocodile Douluo had a hunch that if he joined there and obtained the facility he might be able to advance to the same level as Qian Douli using the resources available in the school.

Not only him, but every Douluo Palace Elder who had heard of the benefits of becoming a Master was eager to become a Teacher in the school. There was no way a Soul Master would refuse if given such excellent facilities to become Strong.

Qian Douli sighed and shook his head, "To be honest, I don't know. Even my position as Master was only given by Master to me because at the time of my arrival, there was still a vacant Master position. However, later I will try to ask Master if there is still a vacant teacher position. If there is, I will inform you and try to nominate you for the seat."

The Douluo Palace Elders were slightly disappointed to hear this.

"First Brother, please ask. Even if it was a position to be the school's janitor. I will take the position." Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately voiced his opinion. Even if it was the humblest job as a janitor, Golden Crocodile Douluo would definitely still do it because compared to the dignity of a worker, the benefits provided were higher.

"First Brother, me too. I will accept any job." The other elders also voiced their opinion. However, it was very difficult to resist the temptation to become very powerful that was right in front of their eyes.

"I'll ask Master later if the position is still available or not." Qian Douli nodded and his gaze glanced at Qian Renxue who was beside him with an excited look, "Xiao Xue, Grandfather has asked Master to make you a student at that school. Master has agreed to this. Do you want to go study there?"

Qian Renxue was surprised to hear this. Not only him, but the other Elders were also shocked. Then it wasn't long before the Douluo Palace's Elder immediately became excited, after all they already considered Qian Renxue to be their own Granddaughter. The good things that Qian Renxue got, they must be very happy too.

"Grandpa is that true?" Qian Renxue asked excitedly because she knew this was a golden opportunity for her.

Qian Douli nodded and said, "Yes. But there is something I need to tell you beforehand. You can consider this. You can choose to agree or not. You better listen first. However, how do you choose? It will have no effect on you being accepted into that school."

"I understand, Grandpa." Qian Renxue nodded and was ready to listen.

The other elders also prepared to listen.

"When Grandpa asked Master to make you a student at the school, Master immediately accepted. However, after a while Master stated that some thoughts were troubling him. Every student in the school is six years old and your current age is twelve. Tuan was worried that when you entered the school, you didn't have anyone to talk to or you could say you didn't have any friends when you were there. That's why Master has given me a material that contains the power of time that can turn back time for six years. by using the abilities contained in this material, one would go back six years of life which meant that everything one had gained during the six years would be lost in terms of ability and strength. But emotions and thoughts will still be awake at this age. Master also advised, if you are worried about the loss of ability and strength. That don't worry. Because in six years of training, Master can return it young. Because Master has a desire for his students to be the first to take part in the rules exam ."

Qian Douli paused for a moment as he took out the materials given to him by Rey and continued again, "These are the materials given by Master. To activate it, simply input the soul force into it and the abilities that have been implanted in this material will activate instantly and change the lifespan of the person who reactivates it within six years."

Qian Douli's gaze turned to Qian Renxue who was staring at the material, "It's all up to you, Xiao Xue. Grandpa will not interfere with the decisions you want to make. But Grandpa's advice accept this. After all you will be directly trained by Master, regarding the matter of strength and ability, you will definitely be the best in the future. With the talent you have, even without Master's help, you will always be the best. However, with great talent, you must also have a team or friends. This could be your chance to get a friend like you've always wanted. After all, Grandpa has seen the people who have become students at the school, they are good children and are very suitable to be your friends."

"Grandfather also agrees with the opinion, First Brother Xiao Xue. I believe this is a golden opportunity given to you. You better accept it." Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at Qian Renxue with a gaze full of tenderness.

The other elders expressed their opinions and they also gave suggestions to Qian Renxue accepting them.

"My grandfather agrees." Qian Renxue who got the urge immediately expressed her opinion excitedly.

"Hahahaha… Good, good, good. This you take. You can use it in your room. Also, if you can, just prepare your needs. Later, after Grandpa has finished taking care of the business given by Master, Grandpa will immediately take you to meet Master."

Qian Douli was overjoyed to hear that Qian Renxue had accepted the offer. After all as a Grandfather, Qian Douli would definitely always prioritize the happiness of his Granddaughter. If her granddaughter refuses, she doesn't force it either.

"I understand, Grandpa." Qian Renxue nodded, took the materials and immediately walked back to her room to prepare everything. Qian Douli wasn't worried about Rey doing something to harm her Granddaughter. Because if Rey wanted to, even without playing a game like this, she could easily do it.

"Eldest Brother, what task did the Universe Guardian Lord give you? Do you need help doing this?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked to be able to get credit and make a good name in Rey's eyes. Hearing this, the other Elders were instantly excited and waited for Qian Douli to ask.

"Master asked me to take care of the registration problem for the school he was building to be registered formally so that his school can participate in various activities carried out by the Empire and the Kingdom"

"In that case, First Brother. Do you need help? I can go To Heaven Dou Empire to take care of this matter." Third Elder immediately expressed his opinion.

"In that case, for registration in the Star Dou Empire I'll be the one to go. After all, I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time." Fifth Elder immediately expressed his opinion.

"Hmph! Third Brother, Fifth Brother. Can't you see my face? As the second person here, I should have priority." Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately let out his disapproval.

The debate between them then begins. Finally after a long debate, Qian Douli did not use their efforts. After all this was the task assigned to him. It would be very embarrassing until Rey found out that the task assigned to her was done by someone else. Also, Rey asked him not to draw too much attention at the time of enlistment.
