Chapter 54: Conditions for Founding an Academy, Two Title Douluo Join

The family was happy and harmonious, and everyone very much enjoyed this feeling.

Qian Renxue had not actually come into contact with many people since she was young, but there were few she could truly open her heart to; aside from Qian Daoliu, almost all of them were here.

When they had chatted enough, Ling Bufan said, "Son, from now on we should still call it Lingxue Academy; try to use the term Lingxue Sacred Land less, as long as everyone knows it."

Lingxu nodded and said, "Alright, everyone take note of that from now on."

"There is one more thing; your mother and I have also approached Carlos and Cheng Mo, and they are both willing to resign from their jobs as Spirit Hall Deacons and follow us," Ling Bufan continued.

"The two of them are quite good and can be trusted, but whether they join or not, you, my son, must make the decision."

Lingxu said, "They may join."

Right now, the more people who join, the better; their strength had all improved this year, with Carlos rising from level 56 to level 57, and Cheng Mo rising from level 53 to level 55.

According to Lingxu's requirements, they had already reached the minimum requirement of being a Soul King to become an academy teacher.

Moreover, they already knew some of their secrets, such as the Golden Twin Swords.

Being able to follow them to Heaven Dou City from the very beginning, these people could still be trusted.

Letting them practice the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art was naturally fine, and this also held immense benefits for Lingxu; both of them were only thirty-six and thirty-four years old, and their talent was not too bad.

It was still possible for them to become Soul Saints with some effort in the future; as for becoming a Spirit Douluo, that would be difficult, and there was almost no possibility of it.

But if they practiced this Lingxue Sacred Heart Art, at the very least they were guaranteed to reach Soul Saint, and with some effort, they could still strive for Spirit Douluo.

Furthermore, they could provide Lingxu with a continuous stream of cultivation experience points.

Ling Bufan said, "Alright, then I will tell him tomorrow."

"By the way, these past two days I also went to find out about founding an Advanced Spirit Master Academy, and I obtained some information on founding one."

"Dad, I was just about to go and look into this; I didn't expect you to have already asked," Lingxu said in surprise, as this efficiency was even faster than his own.

Ling Bufan laughed, "Actually, this was a coincidence; I happened to run into the director of the Heaven Dou Empire Ministry of Education today and just asked a few questions."

"There are three hard requirements for founding an academy!"

"First, there must be a complete set of academy facilities, for example, standard teaching buildings, dormitories, simulated cultivation environments, a cafeteria, and so on."

"Second, the academy must have at least one Soul Saint leading it, as well as a team of teachers of at least ten people at the Soul Ancestor level."

"Third, it must be registered with the Heaven Dou Empire Ministry of Education; registration requires a deposit of 50,000 Gold Soul Coins, as well as an annual management fee of 1,000 Gold Soul Coins. The management fee goes to the Heaven Dou Empire Ministry of Education, but this deposit can be refunded if the academy closes in the future."

"Therefore, if we want to run an academy, we must start with the first and second points; only with these two points can we apply for the founding of this Advanced Spirit Master Academy."

"As long as we meet these two points, they will review it, and we can obtain the qualifications to run the school in a few days, after which we can enroll students; at the same time, the academy will also be able to participate in the continent-wide Advanced Soul Master Competition."

After hearing what Ling Bufan said, Lingxu felt that these three points did not seem to have any issues.

They were all considered normal and not excessive.

But Lingxu remembered that in the novel, Shrek wanted to obtain official recognition from the Bala Kingdom Ministry of Education, which eventually led to a feud with them.

Although the other party said they wanted Shrek to join them, in reality, a "backyard" academy like Shrek could never meet the conditions.

Damn it, they even turned around and blamed them in the end; that was truly a misunderstanding.

Not even a dog would go to Shrek; those who went were worse than...

Moreover, Lingxu now also had a feud with Shrek; he had killed one of their students, and they would definitely come for revenge in the future.

However, Lingxu was not afraid; if you have a grudge, feel free to come—the only fear is that you won't come.

"Dad, I have remembered it; now what we are missing are teachers. This is not urgent; once the academy is built, we will post advertisements, and once the benefits are raised, we won't have to worry about no one coming. We can screen them properly then," Lingxu said.

Founding an academy is very simple, but building the academy is somewhat difficult.

Ling Bufan said, "Actually, I also have contacts for building the academy; there are several Spirit Master families in Heaven Dou City who make a living from construction. If there is a need, I can bring them over immediately."

"Thank you, Dad!" Besides being grateful, Lingxu found he didn't know what else to say.

This was the benefit of Ling Bufan being in a high position and having strength, and he was also very thoughtful in doing things.

Ling Bufan said, "We are family, why say thank you!"

"Dad, arrange it for three days from now; I will meet with them and discuss it," Lingxu said.

"Alright!"

……

At night, Qian Renxue was still experiencing the benefits of practicing the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art alone, and Lingxu was still practicing in his room.

But thinking that there would be a 10% cultivation effect bonus the next day, Lingxu suddenly felt a bit lazy.

Wouldn't it be nice to just have a good sleep and lie flat from now on?

This thought only lasted for an instant, but it was immediately dismissed by Lingxu.

Lying flat is impossible; only by being truly invincible in the world does one have the qualifications to lie flat.

But just as Lingxu sat up to practice, a "dong, dong, dong" knocking sound rang out at the door.

"Brother Lingxu, can I come in?"

The one speaking was naturally Qian Renxue.

Lingxu said, "Xue'er, come in. Is there something the matter so late?"

Opening the door, Qian Renxue walked in and said directly, "Brother Lingxu, I didn't disturb your cultivation, did I?"

Lingxu shook his head and said, "Not at all."

Qian Renxue said, "That's good. Actually, I came tonight because I wanted to ask on behalf of Ci Xue and She Long; can they practice this Lingxue Sacred Heart Art?"

"They want to practice it too?" This caught Lingxu by surprise.

"Perhaps they think it can help them," Qian Renxue said. Since they had both entrusted her, she came to ask Lingxu to see.

Lingxu said, "It's not impossible for them to practice it, but there is one point they must agree to."

"What condition?" Qian Renxue asked curiously.

"Join my Lingxue Sacred Land. They don't need to do anything, er... just hold a position, for example, a Guest Elder or something. However, I'll say this in advance: with this Lingxue Sacred Heart Art, I won't be offering any benefits, ha, since they are already receiving a good salary at the Spirit Hall."

With Title Douluo joining, how could Lingxu not welcome them?

For a Title Douluo to cultivate at full strength for one day, how much is that 10%? In two words: truly fragrant.

Furthermore, with this cultivation technique, wouldn't they have to cultivate even harder?

The harder you work, the more I gain.

Lingxu estimated that even just ten percent of the results of a Title Douluo's one day of cultivation would be much stronger than his own current one day of cultivation.

This business is worth doing!

Seeing Lingxu speak this way, Qian Renxue also smiled and said, "Alright, Brother Lingxu! They will definitely agree to join the Lingxue Sacred Land! After all, didn't I join too?"

"Hee hee! That's great, our team has grown stronger again."
