Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: School Exchange? Communication Crystal

"Contact him and stabilize the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan."

"No matter what happens, don't let them get involved."

Lan Tian quickly issued the order.

Although there was only one Titled Douluo on the surface in Blue Silver City, there were more than just one with Titled Douluo-level combat power.

Although his soul power was level 89, Lan Tian had mastered various self-created soul skills over the years, and his combat power alone was no weaker than a Titled Douluo.

Besides that, Xiao Lan was also a soul beast that had broken through the hundred-thousand-year mark early, already at 190,000 years of cultivation, no weaker than a Titled Douluo.

In Blue Silver City, she was even comparable to a Super Douluo.

And when the two combined, they could also use a martial soul fusion skill...

Even a Super Douluo wouldn't be feared.

Besides that, there were others.

His accumulation over a hundred years wouldn't be lost because of one or two Titled Douluo.

"Okay."

Xiao Lan reacted quickly.

The two walked shoulder to shoulder towards Blue Silver Academy.

Meanwhile, in a luxurious guesthouse in the city.

Dugu Bo, Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong, several distinguished guests from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, were drinking tea and conversing.

Suddenly, Dugu Bo received a sound transmission.

This made his expression freeze for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

"Elder Dugu, has something happened?"

Who was Ning Fengzhi?

They were all old foxes of many years; with just a single expression from the other party, he knew something had happened.

He just hadn't expected that he hadn't even noticed how the other party transmitted the message.

His gaze also swept over Chen Xin and Gu Rong.

The two also shook their heads slightly, having detected no means of message transmission.

"Nothing, I just thought of something just now."

Since Old Man Lan asked him to act as if nothing had happened,

Dugu Bo knew what to do.

Although he remained polite, a hint of vigilance had crept into his demeanor.

Though subtle, it was noticed by Ning Fengzhi and the others.

They were all a bit confused.

They somewhat wanted to stop conversing and investigate the situation individually.

But as soon as the suggestion was made, Dugu Bo rejected it.

He seemed intent on staying there the whole time.

This also confirmed to Ning Fengzhi that something must have happened in Blue Silver City.

However, he hadn't confirmed the situation, so he decided against overturning the table and chose to continue drinking tea together.

But everyone was observing their surroundings...

Lest a large group of 'ax-wielders' suddenly appeared to ambush them.

They also wanted to know what had happened in Blue Silver City... Blue Silver Academy.

The Shrek Academy One line arrived here, looking at the massive gate before them.

Oscar and Ma Hongjun felt a bit of shame; it seemed like this academy was a proper one.

Their academy, on the other hand, was truly a backwater, rustic school; no wonder the students on the road looked down on them...

A rare and precious medicinal plant was carved onto the huge gate, with the most prominent feature being the Blue Silver Grass in the center, adorned with golden patterns, as if etched in real gold.

Just the grand and imposing gate alone showed the Blue Silver Academy's immense wealth and power...

The students coming and going were very orderly, and even the gatekeepers were at the Soul Sage level, lounging lazily in the guardhouse by the entrance, seemingly having noticed the Shrek One line and observing them, assessing their threat level.

"All show and no substance."

"A school that only knows how to put on these fancy displays is no different from those debauched nobles."

Thinking of the stingy Flander, who had taken care of him since he was young, Ma Hongjun put away all his envy, inferiority, and shame, revealing only his unyielding defiance.

Oscar didn't say a word; compared to Ma Hongjun, who could exude his flirtatious charm anywhere, he was much more poker-faced.

"So big, so imposing, so many students..."

Unlike Oscar and Ma Hongjun, Xiao Wu had fewer reservations.

Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the school, even feeling a little hopeful that their school could also be so grand.

It wasn't just Ma Hongjun and the others; Flander himself could see the difference between the two.

Yu Xiaogang, Ning Rongrong, Dai Mubai, and Zhu Zhuqing, on the other hand, were quite calm.

Mainly because of their extraordinary birth, they had seen some things.

In their opinion, such a school was worthy of the second-place ranking in the Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament.

They even somewhat disdained Ma Hongjun's words; if given the choice between such a school and Flander's academy in the village,

They didn't believe he would choose that place.

"Hongjun, don't talk nonsense."

Hearing Ma Hongjun's words, Flander warned him.

A doorman at the entrance was a Soul Sage, and he even felt that the other party had heard their words.

Don't let them fail to communicate and get beaten up and driven away instead.

Arriving at Blue Silver Academy, just seeing the situation at the entrance brought him some pressure.

"Got it."

On someone else's turf, Ma Hongjun was a bit more obedient.

Hearing Flander's words, he reluctantly nodded in response.

"Let's go ask."

Swallowing his saliva, Flander didn't say anything more.

He gestured to the others and led the way to the guardhouse at the entrance.

As soon as they approached, several guards appeared and stopped them.

"You, you're outsiders, aren't you?"

As school security, each person here was a Soul King or Soul Emperor.

After all, the students in the school, those in the advanced academy, were all Soul Grandmasters, Soul Sects, or even Soul Kings.

If they were too weak, it would be hard to tell who was protecting whom.

The captain of the security team was a Soul Emperor, and he showed no fear when facing Flander.

He asked routinely.

"We are Shrek Academy from the Barrak Kingdom."

"This time, we're bringing students to the Star Dou Forest to acquire their third soul ring, so we're passing through Blue Silver City."

"Now we intend to have an exchange with your academy."

Flander was now polite even when facing a Soul Emperor.

There was no arrogance at all.

Yu Xiaogang, on the side, squinted his eyes, constantly observing the surrounding students, taking everything in, as if trying to see through them.

Although he was only a level 29 Great Soul Master, surprisingly, many young students here, who looked like teenagers, had already surpassed him in strength.

They were already at Soul Grandmaster or above.

"Exchange?"

The guards exchanged glances.

In the past, other academies coming for exchanges wasn't uncommon, especially the advanced soul master academies of the two great empires.

Even people from the Spirit Hall had come once.

But this Shrek Academy, they had never heard of it.

They didn't mean to look down on them.

They just felt that they would be asking for trouble themselves.

"Students who need to hunt for their third soul ring, right?"

"I'll report it for you, and whether there will be a teacher to lead a team to exchange with you will depend on the dean and the others."

"Wait a moment."

The leading Soul Emperor took out a crystal and spoke into it.

He explained the situation.

This scene made Flander and the others feel if the other party was just being perfunctory with them.

But soon, they had their answer.

"Alright, let Teacher Lan Ke lead the team, and find a few students from the intermediate academy who are about to advance to exchange with them."

The crystal flickered, and soon a calm voice came out.

It was clearly a response to what the Soul Emperor guard had just said.

"What is this thing?"

Yu Xiaogang was a bit oblivious to everything else, staring at the crystal in the other party's hand.

If he hadn't been rational and lacked strength, he would have wanted to grab it.

"Communication crystal, an auxiliary soul tool developed by Blue Silver City, capable of transmitting sound over thousands of miles."

"Currently, it is only traded with various soul master forces."

The Soul Emperor guard didn't hide anything; items that could be brought out were basically already public.

At least, those soul master forces were basically already aware of them.

In fact, sects like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had already bought many communication crystals.

And had built many communication towers.
