Ning Rongrong readily admitted to Tang Lan's teasing.
"Yes."
"Looking back, I used to be quite annoying."
"It's a good thing I met Uncle Tang~"
"Otherwise, I don't know who I might have offended."
As she spoke,
Ning Rongrong leaned closer to Tang Lan, not missing any opportunity.
Tang Lan rolled his eyes.
Behind him, he summoned his life-bound soul, the Blue Silver Emperor. Five soul rings, yellow, yellow, purple, purple, and black, appeared beneath his feet. His level 51 soul power immediately suppressed Huo Wu!
Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang, who had heard the commotion and were coming over, were both stunned.
Good heavens!
In just a month, he'd jumped four levels?
Huo Wu clearly hadn't expected this boy, younger than herself, to have such an outrageous level!
Her so-called talent seemed insignificant in front of him.
But her pride wouldn't allow her to show weakness.
She forced herself to say, "What do you want?"
"If you make a mistake, you have to pay the price." Tang Lan said casually, "Those who cause trouble and disrupt the registration order, how should they be dealt with?"
The small team leader from earlier smartly stepped forward.
"Responding to the officer, according to the laws of the Heaven Dou Empire, those who disrupt public order are to be detained for a period of three days to three years, depending on the severity of the offense."
Tang Lan gave him an approving look; he had good judgment.
"Then detain them for three days to set an example," Tang Lan waved his hand.
This was already considered a lenient punishment.
But Huo Wu had been pampered since childhood; how could she endure this?
"You dare!" Huo Wu shouted angrily, "My father is the Dean of Blazing Heaven Academy! He is a Marquis of the Heaven Dou Empire! Who dares to lay a hand on us?"
Ning Rongrong couldn't help but shake her head.
Her father was still the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Tang Lan still used Russian roulette, scaring her so much she cried.
Tang Lan was also amused.
He couldn't help but say, "All you people do is rely on your fathers? Tell me, what do you have that's actually worth anything?"
Huo Wu opened her mouth, speechless.
Her greatest confidence was, of course, her talent.
But in front of Tang Lan...
She was infuriated and said, "I'm just relying on my father! If you've got the guts, bring out your father too!"
Ugh...
Yu Xiaogang behind her was speechless.
The other guy's father was a Clear Sky Douluo!
What the hell was her father?
Even if the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire came, he would still have to respectfully address him as Your Excellency Clear Sky.
Tang Lan sighed.
In the anime, Huo Wu seemed like someone who dared to love and hate.
But in reality, after interacting with her...
He really wanted to beat her to death!
—At the door of his sect, she was provoking him, the sect master. Did she think she could get away with this?
Didn't she care about the Tang Sect's reputation?
Just as he was about to use some forceful methods, a series of synchronized horse hooves rapidly approached.
Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, took the lead, galloping on horseback. The team spontaneously cleared a path.
Once she dismounted.
The imperial guards stepped forward and quietly explained the situation.
Qian Renxue's gaze immediately locked onto Huo Wu.
She opened with a bang: "You said the people under this Prince cannot touch you?"
Huo Wu wasn't stupid.
She knew she couldn't offend the Prince, or even her father wouldn't be able to protect her.
But she was also unwilling to admit defeat just like that!
So, she just stood there, stiffening her neck, and said nothing.
Qian Renxue didn't bother wasting time with her.
She waved her hand.
"Take her down, and have the people from Blazing Heaven Academy come to the Tang Sect to ransom her."
They didn't specify a term for the imprisonment, but they were holding him in the Heaven Dou Prison and expecting the Tang Sect to ransom him.
Tsk tsk!
How could they possibly get him out without some blood?
Huo Wu understood this, and opened her mouth as if to say something, but didn't know what to say.
To shout?
The Crown Prince was here; she wasn't an idiot.
To beg?
She couldn't bring herself to humiliate herself.
The Imperial Guards didn't care about her, they simply raised their spears and escorted her away.
Qian Renxue and Tang Lan didn't even give her a second glance.
"Qinghe arrived quickly. I was planning to go to the palace to find you directly," Tang Lan said, sounding annoyed. "Who knew I'd run into this kind of thing."
Qian Renxue smiled warmly.
"It's the same whether Qinghe came or not. Shall we go inside and talk?"
"Of course, please."
Qian Renxue walked side by side with Tang Lan.
Yu Xiaogang took the initiative to lead the way, leaving Liu Erlong to manage the scene.
Ning Rongrong, being sensible, didn't follow and went forward to help Liu Erlong.
On the way,
Yu Xiaogang explained the changes of the past month to Tang Lan in detail.
The Tang Sect Academy was up ahead, and the students were still wearing the same style of uniform.
But once they passed the halfway point, it was the Tang Sect's inner territory.
The newly recruited Outer Sect disciples were all wearing trench coat style Tang Sect clothing.
No need to ask, Tang San designed them.
Tang Lan didn't care about this.
It could even make Tang San feel more belonging to the Tang Sect, and squeeze his labor.
After passing the Outer Sect, was the core of the sect.
The Inner Sect's Zhu Zhuqing and the others were training here.
"In addition, the surrounding ten kilometers of land has already been acquired by the Tang Sect."
"Part of it has been converted into various production lines, warehouses, dormitories, etc."
"Most of the space is currently reserved for future expansion."
Oh, wow!
Tang Lan nodded, quite satisfied with the current development.
Adding the original Blue Tyrant Academy, the Tang Sect's land alone had a diameter of about thirty kilometers.
It directly occupied a corner of Heaven Dou City.
The Tang Sect was located at the south gate, less than a hundred kilometers from the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace in the city center.
But if it were any other sect, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family wouldn't have agreed.
But the Tang Sect could.
Because, in the eyes of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Tang Sect was their "armory."
Of course, it was safest to keep an eye on them.
As for the future... The Tang Sect was still a new sect; who knew what would happen later?
Soon.
Yu Xiaogang led Tang Lan and Qian Renxue to a building.
"Sect Master, this is your palace. The Hall Masters' residences are on the periphery, and the First Generation Disciples are nearby."
"Call on us anytime if you need anything."
"This subordinate will take his leave."
Watching Yu Xiaogang respectfully close the door, Tang Lan's eyes held a hint of suspicion.
This guy… Why is he behaving so… properly? Has he really turned over a new leaf? Or…
"Xiao Lan." Qian Renxue congratulated, "Uncle Ning told Qing He that a twelve-year-old Five Ring Soul King is unprecedented!"
Tang Lan smiled modestly.
"Just a matter of chance, not really talent."
"Luck is also a part of one's strength." Qian Renxue sighed with emotion, "Fate is like this, we have no choice."
Is she… Thinking of her mother?
But Qian Renxue only drifted for a moment before regaining her senses—she was here to be a spy, she had to be vigilant at all times.
"Qinghe has also heard about this Two Academies Exchange Tournament."
Qian Renxue frowned.
"Qinghe wasn't able to get the Vast Sea Universe Cover soul tool directly."
"But I persuaded Father to make it one of the rewards for the champion of this exchange tournament."
"In addition, the team that wins this tournament will be guaranteed a spot in the finals of the Continental Advanced Academy Elite Tournament."
Tang Lan blinked.
A guaranteed spot?
Normally, that was a privilege reserved for the main team of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
To offer it as a "prize" for this Two Academies Exchange Tournament?
"This was something Qinghe specifically requested," Qian Renxue said with a smile. "After all, I originally promised it to you directly, but now it has to go through all this."
Understood, a supplement for not getting the job done.
There's nothing else to be done then.
Originally, Tang Lan was thinking that he wouldn't bully the younger ones in this team exchange tournament.
Now, he could only go up and hold down the fort.
Thinking like this.
Tang Lan politely said, "Qinghe is joking. It's enough to have the opportunity."
Despite saying this.
He didn't mention a single word about the Nine Yang Divine Skill and the exclusive authorization for the firearms trade that he had agreed to.
"You haven't accomplished anything, yet you still want benefits?"
The smile on Qian Renxue's face stiffened slightly.
Didn't she already provide compensation?
In an instant,
the atmosphere turned awkward.
