Time flew by since the students from Tianshui Academy and Plant Academy reported to Peach Garden. A year and a half had already passed.
Deep within the peach forest, branches and leaves flourished, flower buds bloomed, and a massive ancestral peach tree blossomed.
A young man dressed in peach-white robes sat cross-legged on a Mysterious Stone. Around him, the dragon souls of ice and fire roared continuously, countless peach trees echoed, and wisps of immortal aura emanated from him:
"Disciple Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, and Dugu Yan have successfully achieved initial mastery of their Grandmaster-level unique skills. The Host receives a hundredfold feedback on unique skill proficiency experience."
"Disciple Xiao Wu has grasped the basics of the Four Trigrams of Qimen Dunjia. Wang Sheng has practiced the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms ten thousand times to achieve initial mastery. Disciple Ye Lingling has condensed a petal of the Nine Revolutions Black Lotus. The Host's spirit ring age has increased by 3000 years for all spirit rings."
"Disciples Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, Dugu Yan, Xiao Wu, Wang Sheng, Ye Lingling, Shui Bing'er, and ten other disciples have broken through to level fifty, acquiring their fifth spirit ring. The Host receives spirit power feedback, and spirit power breaks through to level ninety-five."
"..."
"Whew~"
"Level 95 is indeed the watershed for Titled Douluo, known as Super Douluo. The spirit power increase it brings far exceeds the previous levels."
Su Ran slowly opened his eyes. Amidst the peach forest, he resembled a reclusive peach blossom immortal.
Another year had passed, and Su Ran's spirit power had broken through to level 95, advancing towards level 96 spirit power.
Above level ninety-five, every level increase was immense.
Over ten disciples of the Academy had also entered their own cultivation states. Even for registered disciples like Xue Wu and Qiu Ruoshui, Su Ran had planned exclusive cultivation paths and unique skills for them, leading to significant progress.
Currently, Soto City had become a highly sought-after city. Spirit Hall, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and Tian Dou Royal Family all regarded it as their second base.
The major forces openly and secretly competed, all seeking good relations with Peach Garden Academy, hoping to send students to study there.
Su Ran did not refuse, but he also did not show favor or agree.
Su Ran now only wanted to focus on nurturing his current core disciples, unwilling to deal too much with worldly forces, which would hinder his teaching.
"Xue Wu, the snowflakes released by your Spirit are a form between water and ice. When softened, they are for support; when sharpened, they are for fierce attacks. You can perform 'Ice and Snow Falling' by yourself. You must master this critical point well.
The 'Ice Calamity' is not suitable for cultivation, but once it reaches great mastery, wherever it goes, it will turn into a World of ice and snow, incredibly cold."
"Yun Zhu, your swordplay is progressing well. If you encounter Sword Douluo strolling in the peach forest, you can challenge him for a sparring match; it might be helpful to you."
"Rongrong, pause your cultivation for now. Call your other six teammates to the schoolroom. I have something to tell you."
Su Ran walked leisurely from the peach forest. Every day, he would casually give pointers to the registered disciples as he passed their cultivation area, finally heading towards the schoolroom in the main campus.
Ning Rongrong, whose skin had transformed into bronze patterns, radiating a golden bell glow, looked like a King Kong Barbie.
Upon hearing her teacher's words, her incredibly hard body began to soften, and her bronze skin receded. Ning Rongrong nodded:
"Okay, Teacher."
"Sisters, Teacher is flipping cards! Come quickly!"
"What 'flipping cards'? You always like to spread rumors about Teacher, you're asking for a beating."
When Su Ran heard Ning Rongrong's words, his heart immediately skipped a beat. He reached for the disciplinary ruler on the schoolroom windowsill.
Seeing her teacher's action, Ning Rongrong was so scared that she turned and ran, quickly and obediently going to gather her teammates, muttering:
"Sigh, Teacher is good in every way, except he can't take a joke. And, well, good things shouldn't go to outsiders, right? If such an excellent man like Teacher were really taken by those two old women from Tianshui Academy or that annoying Supreme Pontiff, that would be bad."
Over this past year, Leng Ci Shuang and Leng Yuehan, the deans of Tianshui Academy, came every two or three months. Tianshui City and Soto City are thousands of miles apart, yet they didn't seem to mind the fatigue.
That annoying Supreme Pontiff also came, and even used the excuse of seeking knowledge. She even brought a tattered piece of paper to ask Teacher for its deeper meaning, which completely disgusted my Senior Sister Rongrong.
Fortunately, Teacher didn't have a good attitude towards that smelly Supreme Pontiff either. He dismissed her after a few words, which was truly satisfying!
Soon, the core Peach Blossom-level students of Peach Garden Academy had assembled in front of the schoolroom.
