In the south of the Heaven Dou Empire, in the Barack Kingdom.
After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, Cheng Xiao rode his Shadow Soldier, the Ghost Tiger, at full speed. He only stopped when a city called Barack City faintly appeared in his sight.
After the Shadow Soldiers all melded back into his shadow, Cheng Xiao passed the city guard's inspection and smoothly entered the city.
After going through the somewhat dark city wall passage, his vision suddenly opened up. The clamor of voices, overwhelming and deafening, assaulted his ears, making Cheng Xiao's unprepared head slightly swell.
Feeling a bit dizzy, he stood on the street for a long time. Looking at the crowded people, Cheng Xiao, who had been in the Star Dou Great Forest for a full half month, suddenly didn't know what to do.
But remembering the token Qian Renxue left him, Cheng Xiao sighed softly. Then, he asked the people on the street for directions and roughly understood the location of the transportation company in the city.
After saying thank you, Cheng Xiao followed the directions and went through several unfamiliar streets. After more than ten minutes, Cheng Xiao found a transportation company in the city.
Having rented a carriage from a transport company, Cheng Xiao immediately set off for the Heaven Dou Empire.
Heaven Dou City, the imperial capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, was located in the northeast of the empire's center. It was the core of the Heaven Dou Empire's political power and one of the two largest cities on the entire continent.
Apart from Star Luo City, the imperial capital of the Star Luo Empire, no other city on the continent could compare to Heaven Dou City.
To reach the imperial capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, one had to cross the entire Silves Kingdom, which lay north of the Barack Kingdom, before entering the sphere of influence of the Heaven Dou Empire's capital.
Traveling further east was the location of Heaven Dou City, the imperial capital of the Heaven Dou Empire. The entire journey was extremely long, covering nearly two thousand kilometers.
The long journey made Cheng Xiao feel bored, but fortunately, he could use cultivation to pass the time. Moreover, he could also use the time on the road to harmonize the Sacred Energy belonging to Qian Renxue with the Shadow Force within him.
A few days later, after leaving the Barack Kingdom, Cheng Xiao entered the territory of the Silves Kingdom.
After resting and resupplying in a city for a night, Cheng Xiao left the inn early the next morning at dawn, ready to depart from the city.
As one of the largest cities, Silves City was worthy of being the capital of the Silves Kingdom, second only to the two imperial cities. Although it was early morning, the streets were still bustling with activity and the sounds of people. Occasionally, the city guards marched past in formation, the sound of their armor clashing in unison.
This sound rang out crisply in the morning sky, like a morning bell.
After leaving Silves City, they started another week-long journey. When Cheng Xiao arrived at his destination, Heaven Dou City, the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, not only the driver but also Cheng Xiao himself couldn't sit still.
The continuous travel for several days had made Cheng Xiao feel irritable. However, after a simple inspection at the city gate, he smoothly entered the city.
After entering the city, Cheng Xiao decisively got out of the carriage, his gaze sweeping across the magnificent imperial capital. He couldn't help but feel some admiration. It was indeed the imperial city of the Heaven Dou Empire. Its grandeur and area were the largest within the Heaven Dou Empire, but he didn't know what the yet-to-be-seen Martial Soul City was like.
After standing and watching for a while, the driver of the carriage walked over and asked, "Young master, do you have any other places to go?"
"Go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy," Cheng Xiao thought for a moment and said.
"Alright," the driver nodded in agreement. Then, Cheng Xiao returned to the carriage, and the driver took out a map of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy from his pocket. Following the directions marked on the map, he drove the carriage out of the imperial city and headed toward the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
After a while, the driver in front laughed, "Young master, we've arrived at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
After getting out of the carriage, Cheng Xiao looked at the large mountain in front of him and nodded. Yes, that's right, the iconic building of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, a large mountain.
"Thank you." After paying the driver, Cheng Xiao strode towards the mountain.
But he hadn't gone far when trouble arrived.
"Stop! Who are you? What are you doing here?" A dozen young men, about seventeen or eighteen years old, blocked Cheng Xiao's path. Judging from their goose-yellow school uniforms, they were clearly students of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Although these people hadn't summoned their martial souls, Cheng Xiao still felt a faint fluctuation of soul power from them, but the intensity of that soul power fluctuation was really... hard to describe.
Seeing that Cheng Xiao didn't speak, one of the young men, thought the former was scared, and immediately shouted sternly, "Where did this commoner come from? You dare not salute when you see our Prince Xue Beng? I think you're tired of living."
"You're quite handsome, but judging from your attire, you're probably some country bumpkin." The leading young man sneered, "Commoners should have the awareness of commoners. This is not a place you should be. If you don't leave, we will use force."
After traveling for more than ten days, Cheng Xiao was indeed a bit dusty, but he also understood that these people were here to pick a fight. What surprised him was that the leading young man looked like he had indulged too much. That pale complexion, sunken eye sockets, and yellowish cheeks, were a clear sign of indulgence! "Aren't you going to get lost?" The leading young man, seeing that Cheng Xiao was unmoved, thought his domineering aura had frightened the other party, and also walked towards Cheng Xiao in a rather arrogant manner, but his body, which had indulged too much, even after taking these two steps, he was still a man with insufficient energy and a weak kidney.
Knowing that the other party was clearly looking for trouble, Cheng Xiao didn't plan to indulge them. Anyway, the Martial Soul Hall was backing him up, so what was he afraid of?
A kind smile spread across Cheng Xiao's lips as he deliberately showed weakness. "Gentlemen, I'm just here to enroll. Please don't cause me any trouble."
Hearing this, the leading youth who was walking towards Cheng Xiao sneered. He sized Cheng Xiao up and down a few times, and after confirming that he didn't look like a noble, he immediately mocked, "Peasant, you want to come to our Heaven Dou Royal Academy to study? Looking at your clothes, I know what kind of person you are. If you want to beg, go beg somewhere else. I feel disgusted when I see low-level commoners like you who have nothing."
"Heh." Cheng Xiao smiled faintly, his eyes flashing with a dark purple light. The Shadow Soldiers in the shadows began to stir, all of them revealing fierce expressions, as if they would tear the youth in front of them to pieces in the next second.
"You dare to 'heh'? I think you're courting death!" Realizing he wasn't being taken seriously, the leading youth decisively retreated behind his underlings and shouted, "Brothers, this kid dares to disrespect me, kill him! I'll take responsibility for whatever happens!"
"Yes, Your Highness Xue Beng!" Everyone chuckled. With Xue Beng backing them up, what were they afraid of? Even if the kid in front of them had some skills, don't forget, they had the numbers!
Seeing this situation, Cheng Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud. He loved this kind of scenario where many people bullied a few. Right, Shadow Soldiers?
"Damn it, he still dares to laugh! Brothers, kill him!"
