Chapter 69: Qian Renxue: How ugly, how did Bibi Dong look at him?

Lingxu brought Feng Xiaotian; in fact, Lingxu had thought about this issue long ago.

He had originally considered poaching from these few elemental academies after establishing his own academy, taking advantage of the fact that those few people familiar from the novel were still young to lure them over.

Who would have known they would take the initiative to come to him; he would just take this opportunity to bring them in.

Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wushuang, Huo Wu, Shui Bing'er, and the others—Lingxu actually had an idea in his heart to have them fight Tang San in the future.

But if he were to train them himself, would it even be their turn to fight?

Watching the few of them leave to go home and prepare, Lingxu smiled.

Luo Xingyue asked with some curiosity, "Son, what are you smiling about?"

Lingxu said, "Mother, I think they will bring us a surprise."

"I hope so," Luo Xingyue said.

"Brother Lingxu, didn't that person say his son had Innate Full Spirit Power? But to be only level 23 at eleven years old, he is truly trash," Qian Renxue couldn't help but say.

She was too embarrassed to say it while others were around, but it was fine now that they had left.

Compared to her and Lingxu, he was indeed somewhat trash.

But this was the true portrayal of commoner cultivators without any resources or opportunities.

Level 23 at eleven, level 44 at twenty-four.

From awakening soul power at six to twenty-four, even counting the one level gained from absorbing a spirit ring, the average increase was less than two levels per year.

And that was under the condition that cultivation was easier in the early stages.

It could even be said that if Feng Xiaotian were placed in Shrek, he might not even be able to graduate by twenty.

Comparing these few to those at Shrek, Lingxu was more willing to choose them rather than those people from Shrek.

Facing Qian Renxue's words, Lingxu said, "Xue'er, actually you can't say it like that. If they are cultivated properly, they can still easily reach the Title level in the future."

For these few, barring any accidents, there was a high probability of reaching the Title level; it was just a matter of time.

If they consumed an Immortal Grade Herb, it would certainly be much sooner.

Lingxu could give them, but they had to be worth it, for instance, by earning his trust and eventually joining the Lingxue Sacred Land.

As for the people from the Elephant Armor Academy who were also in the original work, that was not impossible either.

The Elephant Armor Sect could, at the very least, become a subordinate of the Spirit Hall; they were at least not enemies.

But the Thunder Academy was completely out of the question; everything they did was certainly still for their sect.

Just as Lingxu was deep in thought, Liu'er trotted over.

"Godmother, Young Master, Little Xue, a middle-aged man who looks like... well, he's at the gate. He's only level 20-something in soul power but insists on applying to be a teacher. He also said that although his soul power isn't great, his teaching is among the best on this continent, and he told me to find the Dean."

"What is someone at level 20-something doing here? Just chase him away," Luo Xingyue said.

"Alright!"

"Sister Liu'er, wait!"

As Liu'er turned to leave, Lingxu suddenly became interested and called her back.

"Sister Liu'er, what was that person's name again?" Lingxu asked.

Luo Liu'er thought for a moment and said, "It's, it's something like Yu Xiaogang."

Lingxu hadn't expected this; this guy was actually in Heaven Dou City now. Lingxu had thought he would already be in Notting City.

Luo Xingyue seemed to have heard this name before, and was even somewhat surprised, saying, "Yu Xiaogang, the Master?"

"Mother, do you know this person?" Lingxu said.

Luo Xingyue nodded and said, "I know a little. This person was originally from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, but unfortunately, his martial soul mutation was poor, leading to very low Innate Spirit Power."

"Later, he even came to Wuhun City. Originally, with his qualifications, he had no right to study in the Spirit Hall's library, but somehow, he managed to latch onto Bibi Dong from that period, who is the current Pope."

"It was precisely because of Bibi Dong's help that he was able to see all the books in the Spirit Hall's library, and even some precious volumes."

"I have to admit, this guy has a knack for researching martial souls. Later, I remember he even proposed something called the Ten Core Competitiveness Theories of Martial Souls, which is why people call him the Master."

"It's just that I don't know why he later abandoned Bibi Dong and left."

Speaking of this, Luo Xingyue shook her head.

And Qian Renxue also very rarely heard the story of her mother, Bibi Dong, from before.

"Hmph... I don't think he's a good person," Qian Renxue said directly after hearing this.

Lingxu said, "Mother, what do you think of this person?"

Luo Xingyue said, "I've never interacted with him, so I'm not sure. However, that summary of the Ten Core Competitiveness Theories of Martial Souls is actually decent."

"A summary?" Lingxu asked with some confusion.

Luo Xingyue nodded and continued, "Yes, just a summary. In fact, much of the content can be found in the precious books of the Spirit Hall. He merely summarized some of the essential theories of predecessors, or rather, theoretical aspects that Spirit Masters nowadays don't pay attention to."

"Anyone who frequently goes to the Spirit Hall's library to read should be clear about this," Luo Xingyue laughed.

"Although this guy summarized the work of his predecessors and claimed it as his own, he does have some ability."

So it turned out that someone in this world had already seen through Yu Xiaogang; it was just unexpected that this person was Luo Xingyue.

"Mother, then you have also read many of the precious books inside the Spirit Hall?" Lingxu asked curiously.

Hearing Lingxu ask this, Luo Xingyue said somewhat proudly, "That's right, back when I had nothing to do at the Spirit Hall Academy, Bufan and I often went to take a look."

"So that's how it is. Mother, then how do you intend to handle this so-called Master? Will you recruit him as an exception?" Lingxu asked, wanting to see what Luo Xingyue was thinking.

"Son, aren't the rules all set by you? Whether to take him or not is your call," Luo Xingyue said directly.

Lingxu laughed, "Then let's go take a look at this guy!"

"I want to go too!" Qian Renxue came to Lingxu's side; she wanted to see what kind of person could make Bibi Dong infatuated.

At this time, Leng Yushuang had already been taken to her residence by Luo Yun'er, so now it was just Luo Xingyue, Lingxu, and Qian Renxue going together.

When they arrived at the academy gate, Carlos and Cheng Mo were blocking a middle-aged man in front.

He was of medium build, about forty or fifty years old, with short black hair parted in a three-seven split, and his appearance was very ordinary, or even a bit ugly.

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking lazy, giving people the impression that he was an expert.

From afar, the moment Qian Renxue laid eyes on Yu Xiaogang, she couldn't help but whisper, "So ugly, how did Bibi Dong ever take a liking to him?"

This was Qian Renxue's assessment of Yu Xiaogang.

Hearing Qian Renxue's words, Lingxu nearly laughed out loud; he had to admit, Bibi Dong had been very courageous to fall in love with Yu Xiaogang back then.

Or perhaps, Bibi Dong was just too young at the time and easily deceived.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang, Luo Xingyue said, "You are Yu Xiaogang? Didn't you see our teacher recruitment advertisement? We don't accept anyone below level forty."

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang was actually quite destitute, as all his expenses were provided by the Spirit Hall.

As a Great Spirit Master, he received ten Gold Soul Coins a month.

But with this money, he could only find a middle-aged woman in a brothel to satisfy his needs.

He came here naturally because he saw that Lingxue Academy had good benefits, and he wanted to earn a salary based on his own abilities, which would be enough for him to live comfortably!

After all, the current Yu Xiaogang was short on money.

In the novel, he appeared to be living in seclusion at the Primary Soul Master Academy in Notting City, but in reality, it was no different from just scraping by for a living.
