Chapter 93: Tian Dou Royal Academy
The academy's main campus is on the mid‑mountain slope, the camouflaged zones are at the summit, at the foot of the mountain, and also by the lake.
The main campus looks like a fortress; its outer wall is a full five meters thick, bright yellow, with glazed tiles on the top that shine brilliantly in the sun.
"Come, first fill in your soul power level, age, martial soul and other information."
"Alright."
Tie Li entered his information piece by piece and submitted it to the ground desk.
"Twenty years old, Thirty Nine Level soul power?" the academy teacher's voice rose, looking at Tie Li with a hint of disbelief.
He is only twenty; before he turns twenty‑five, he will certainly become a Four Ring Soul Ancestor.
Any faction is extremely eager to welcome a genius.
To verify that Tie Li was not lying, the academy teacher specially took him to a dedicated room for testing.
The test content matched exactly what Tie Li had filled in.
When the Soul Power Level reaches Level 30+ Soul Master, the student is Tian Dou-level, and the academy teacher must report to the academy higher‑ups.
Moreover, Tie Li's Soul Power Level has reached Thirty Nine Level and can break through to Forty Level at any moment.
"I'll register you first and assign a dormitory."
It's hard to get such an outstanding student, so we must definitely keep him.
Registration at the academy proceeds quickly, and the dormitories are allocated according to Tian Dou-level student standards.
Tie Li's dormitory is in the East District; it's a single room, and all living supplies are brand‑new and fully equipped.
The academy teacher specially brought Tie Li to the dormitory.
Tie Li looked at the exquisite single room and felt quite satisfied.
As a Tian Dou-level student, I should be able to come and go from the academy library at will, right?
Those who teach Tian Dou-level students are themselves Tian Dou-level teachers.
Only when the Soul Power Level reaches Level 60 can one become a Tian Dou-level teacher.
Tie Li has many difficulties in cultivation; guidance from a Tian Dou-level teacher would undoubtedly make his training a bit easier.
After completing Tie Li's registration, the academy teacher, having settled him, immediately ran toward the academy center, where the Education Committee of the Tian Dou Royal Academy stands as the largest building in the whole main campus.
The Tian Dou Royal Academy belongs to the the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family; the current the Heaven Dou Empire emperor is the academy's nominal director, so the Education Committee was established to manage the academy.
"Tap tap"
The academy teacher knocked on the Education Committee's main door; today there is only one chief present.
"Come in."
"So it's Teacher Li, what brings you here?" Meng Shenji wore a smile; the academy was about to add another Tian Dou-level teacher, and he was, of course, very pleased.
"Today a student arrived with a recommendation letter to enroll."
Upon hearing about the recommendation letter, Meng Shenji's face flashed with a hint of helplessness.
Seeing this, Teacher Li hurriedly handed Tie Li's information to the chief.
"Hiss?"
Meng Shenji, seeing the Soul Power Level and age, couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Twenty years old, Thirty Nine Level, are you sure?"
"I took him for testing; there was no problem at all. Judging by his bone age, it will still be a few months before he truly counts as twenty."
"For such an outstanding genius Soul Master, have you investigated his background?"
"Not yet; I came to inform you first."
"Alright, first treat him according to Tian Dou-level student standards; the background investigation is yours to handle. You should have seen his Imperial Certificate, right?"
"Rest assured, I will investigate properly," Teacher Li pledged confidently.
After Teacher Li left, Meng Shenji's eyes flashed with a different light.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Crystal Sect has sent in two disciples with decent talent; with their aptitude they should be able to break through to Four Ring Soul Ancestor within the next four years;
If their identities are fine, we gain another Soul Ancestor;
First Team will stay as is, but the overall quality of Second Team will see a great boost."
When the two return, we can discuss with them.
……
Tie Li changed into the Tian Dou-level student uniform and went to the academy cafeteria; the surrounding students promptly cleared a path for him—this is a hidden privilege of Tian Dou-level students.
As senior Soul Master students with very strong teaching resources, they give Tian Dou-level students excellent treatment.
For example, Tie Li right now can eat in the cafeteria without paying.
Tie Li unabashedly ordered several of the most luxurious set meals for tonight's dinner.
"I've never seen you before; are you a new student?"
A rather burly student sat beside Tie Li, wearing the same Tian Dou-level uniform as Tie Li.
Across the entire Tian Dou Royal Academy, the number of Tian Dou-level students is less than one‑tenth of the total student body.
He basically knows every Tian Dou-level student, and when he saw the unfamiliar face of Tie Li, he couldn't help but approach to ask.
"Anything?" Tie Li glanced at him.
"Just wanted to greet you, get to know you a bit; I'm Bai Xu."
He extended his right hand, feigning generosity as he spoke.
Tie Li glanced once and immediately understood his meaning.
Want to give me a show of force?
"I'm Wan Li."
Tie Li also smiled and shook his right hand.
Seeing Tie Li fall for it, Bai Xu immediately exerted force, tightening the power of his right hand; he is a strength‑type Soul Master, and in such a simple skirmish it's easy to make the other party suffer a loss.
But he soon sensed something was off; Tie Li's palm was like a Diamond, unmoving no matter how force was applied.
Then, Tie Li suddenly exerted force, and Bai Xu felt his hand bones about to shatter.
"You…"
The surrounding trainees silently watched their every move; Bai Xu forced himself not to shout, yet his forehead was drenched in cold sweat.
Tie Li, seeing the moment was right, released his right hand.
Bai Xu let out a long sigh, nearly losing his balance.
The trainees who had intended to come up and provoke immediately sat back obediently; even Bai Xu suffered a loss, as their provocation was self‑inflicted.
They like to provoke weaker, lower‑status civilian students, but that doesn't make them fools; even knowing they're no match, they still deliberately step forward to taunt.
"Very good…"
"The food really is quite good."
Bai Xu held his trembling right hand and left the cafeteria.
After eating his fill, Tie Li also returned to his dormitory.
He rested in the dormitory for a night, and the next day, outside the dorm, he saw the academy teacher from yesterday.
"How was your rest?" Teacher Li said with a smile.
"Not bad."
"I'll first show you around the academy, as well as your usual classroom and simulated environment."
Last night, he investigated Tie Li's Imperial Certificate overnight; the seal was genuine, indicating the Imperial Certificate would not be erroneous.
The Soul Master Handbook was also authentic; with these two proofs, his identity was sufficiently established, so he ceased further investigation.
Having confirmed his identity, of course Tie Li would be cultivated as a core trainee.
