For the first time, Xue Qinghe felt a strong sense of urgency.
No!
I need to speed things up!
I must complete the angel god's test as soon as possible, otherwise, once this man truly grows to the point where no one can control him, all my plans will come to naught.
By then, let alone conquer him, you probably won't even be qualified to stand before him.
"Your Majesty's talent is truly unparalleled in Qinghe's lifetime."
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Xue Qinghe sincerely praised.
He wanted to say something more to try and build rapport.
Tang Qing, however, had already stood up and interrupted him.
"It's getting late, I need to rest."
This is an order to leave.
Xue Qinghe's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately bowed and said, "It is Qinghe who has disturbed you. Qinghe will take his leave."
He turned and left, but before leaving, he couldn't help but look back one last time.
Tang Qing had already walked to Zhu Zhuqing's side and naturally put his arm around her slender waist.
A strong sense of jealousy flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes.
This woman is so lucky!
She was clearly just a pawn sent by the Star Luo Empire for a political marriage, yet she received such favor from this man.
Ning Rongrong tactfully bowed and withdrew, but her pretty face was filled with resentment.
Only Tang Qing and Zhu Zhuqing remained in the room.
Tang Qing lowered his head and looked at the gentle beauty in his arms, who exuded a faint fragrance that was refreshing and pleasant.
He swept Zhu Zhuqing up in his arms.
Zhu Zhuqing gasped in surprise, instinctively wrapping her arms around his neck, her pretty face flushed and her eyes filled with seductive allure.
"Your Majesty..."
Tang Qing said nothing, but simply carried her and strode toward the bed in the inner room.
The gauze curtains fell, obscuring the spring light from the room.
Tonight, I'm destined to be sleepless.
...
The next day, it was broad daylight.
The tranquility of the night faded from Blue Silver City.
The city was deserted as everyone flocked to the same destination—the newly built Blue Silver Holy Court Academy in the east of the city.
The academy covers a vast area and features a magnificent architectural style, with black boulders and blue silver grass reliefs complementing each other.
At this moment, the square in front of the academy gate was already packed with people, shoulder to shoulder.
Tens of thousands of people gathered here, eager to witness the grand opening ceremony of the Northern First Academy and to pay homage to the legendary Blue Silver King.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The sound of armor clashing in unison rang out.
Squads of soldiers clad in heavy black armor and wielding blue-silver spears stood like an iron wall, keeping the surging crowd at bay and maintaining order at the scene.
They were expressionless, stood ramrod straight, and exuded a fierce and menacing aura that deterred anyone who tried to cause a disturbance.
The sun was high in the sky, just as the crowd's discussions reached their peak.
A towering blue-gold beam of light shot into the sky from the direction of the royal palace in the city.
Everyone instinctively looked up and saw a figure slowly rising into the air from within the pillar of light, standing with his hands behind his back, overlooking the entire Blue Silver City.
"It's the Blue Silver King!"
Someone shouted, and the crowd instantly erupted in cheers, with countless people displaying fanaticism and chanting Tang Qing's name.
Tang Qing was dressed in a black robe with gold patterns. He was tall and slender with a handsome face and black hair that moved in the wind.
Without saying much, he simply moved and transformed into a streak of light, shooting straight toward the towering platform in the center of the academy square.
Almost simultaneously, several figures followed closely behind and landed on the platform.
The leader was none other than Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire.
He was still dressed in the moon-white prince's robes, with a gentle smile on his face, but he stood respectfully half a step behind Tang Qing, showing the distinction between the two.
Behind them, a group of figures caused all the Soul Masters present to gasp in astonishment.
Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Swordsmanship and worldly desires, ancient banyan tree.
Yu Yuanzhen, the patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.
Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo.
...
Any one of those names is enough to cause a huge uproar on the mainland.
But today, these important figures, whose mere stomp could shake the entire region, all stood quietly behind that young man like stars surrounding the moon, their expressions solemn, not daring to overstep their bounds in the slightest.
The impact of this image is far more powerful than any words.
Some people from other sects who came to watch the ceremony stepped forward and bowed to Tang Qing on the platform, their words filled with awe and flattery.
"Congratulations, Blue Silver King! Congratulations on the grand opening of Holy Court Academy!"
"May Your Majesty be renowned for both your civil and military virtues, and may your reign last for ten thousand generations!"
Tang Qing ignored the flattery and walked slowly to the front of the stage, his gaze sweeping over the thousands of freshmen below, all dressed in uniform and with faces full of excitement and nervousness.
The entire square fell silent instantly, wherever his gaze fell.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Tang Qing's voice rang out, not loud, but clearly reaching everyone's ears.
"Today, the Blue Silver Holy Court Academy is officially established."
"The first cohort of students has also been admitted."
His opening remarks were extremely simple, without a single wasted word.
"I will only say three points."
The thousands of freshmen below the stage instantly held their breath and pricked up their ears, afraid of missing a single word.
Tang Qing held up one finger.
"First, here you will have access to the best cultivation resources and the most comprehensive theoretical knowledge of Soul Masters on the entire continent."
He turned to the side and casually pointed to Dugu Bo and the others behind him.
"You should all know the people behind me."
"They, and many more titled Douluo you haven't seen before, may become your instructors."
These words immediately caused a great commotion among the freshmen below the stage.
"What? A Title Douluo is giving us a lesson?"
"Oh my god! Am I dreaming? Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo... they'll be giving lectures too?"
"This teaching staff is simply the best on the mainland! No, it's unprecedented!"
The students were so excited that their faces turned red and their bodies trembled slightly.
To receive guidance from a Soul Emperor is already an incredible opportunity for them, let alone a Title Douluo!
This Blue Silver Academy is just too powerful!
Tang Qing ignored their shock and continued to extend her second finger.
"second."
His tone suddenly changed, becoming sharp and domineering.
"In the dictionary of my Blue Silver Academy, there is no word 'second'."
Only number one!
"Therefore, I hope that starting with your class, the champion of every Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament must be Blue Silver Academy!"
These words struck like a thunderbolt, exploding in everyone's minds.
If the previous sentence ignited the flame in their hearts, then this sentence directly detonated that flame!
Passionate!
boiling!
Every young Soul Master dreams of becoming a champion.
Who doesn't yearn to stand atop the continent?
