In the office of the Three Board of Education that night.
The Three Board of Education were still marveling at the talent and overwhelming strength displayed by Xiao Lin's trio.
Factoring in their current ages, the Board of Education had even begun daydreaming about winning back-to-back championships in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
"Hahaha, Xiao Lin and the others have truly opened my eyes! What do you call this? Heaven is blessing our Heaven Dou Imperial Academy!"
Meng Shenji stroked his grizzled beard, a blissful smile on his face. They were already quite advanced in years; if they could secure two consecutive championships during their final tenure at the academy...
Hiss! Just the thought of it brought immense joy.
Boundless joy!
"Speaking of which, those three little monsters are nearly ready to break through to become Soul Ancestors, aren't they? When the time comes, this old man wouldn't mind putting in some hard work to help them hunt their soul beasts,"Zhi Lin thought happily.
It would be even better if Tang San could become his personal disciple.
"Heh! You think it's your turn? Naturally, I should be the one helping the three little monsters with their soul rings."
Bai Baoshan snorted coldly.
At a time like this, he wouldn't give Zhi Lin the chance.
Who wouldn't want to forge a bond with three such little monsters!
Knock, knock, knock!
Just as the Three Board of Education were chatting merrily, a knock sounded at the office door.
"It's so late; which student could it be?"
Zhi Lin remarked curiously before responding, "Enter!"
The moment Zhi Lin called out, the office door swung open.
Outside, a sturdy middle-aged man wearing a black cloak gave a slight smile and stepped into the office, followed closely by a golden-haired girl who appeared to be only thirteen or fourteen years old.
Only after the golden-haired girl closed the door did the middle-aged man remove his cloak, revealing his true face.
"You... you... you are..."
"You are Tang..."
"Excellency Clear Sky?"
Zhi Lin and Bai Baoshan were so stunned by the familiar face of the man before them that they were momentarily speechless. Only Meng Shenji remained relatively composed, uttering Tang Hao's respectful title.
"It is I," Tang Hao said coldly.
He had followed Tang San and the others to Heaven Dou City.
Firstly, he was worried about Tang San's safety, and secondly, he was concerned for Xiao Wu. After Tang San and his group arrived at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, Tang Hao had completed an investigation into the identities of the Three Board of Education.
All Three Board of Education were born in Spirit City, but they had come here to teach because they couldn't stomach the actions of certain high-ranking officials in Spirit Hall. Combined with their decent reputations, such individuals were clearly more trustworthy in Tang Hao's eyes.
His decision to reveal his identity was to ensure the Three Board of Education would properly protect Tang San and the others. Upon learning of Tang Hao's intent, the Three Board of Education fell silent for a long time.
In their minds, Xiao Lin and the others now held a new significance. Tang San was Tang Hao's son—a true genius with Twin Martial Souls and a vital force for Tang Hao's future revenge against Spirit Hall.
Regarding Tang San, they had little to say; as long as Tang San didn't use his second Martial Soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy wouldn't face any trouble.
As for Xiao Lin being the eldest brother and Xiao Wu being the sister, the Three Board of Education viewed them as "monster" youths recruited by Tang Hao for his future vengeance.
With such terrifying talent and potential, the Three Board of Education truly felt that Tang Hao—or rather, the Clear Sky Sect—had a real chance at revenge. Would Spirit Hall be destroyed by the Clear Sky Sect in the future?
The Three Board of Education dared not imagine it.
Having come from the Spirit Empire, they knew deep down that there were powerful existences still hiding in the shadows of Spirit Hall.
Relying solely on three geniuses like Xiao Lin was still extremely difficult unless they, like Tang Hao, possessed peerless combat strength—ideally reaching the level of a Super Douluo.
However, after much deliberation, the Three Board of Education decisively agreed to Tang Hao's request. They even swore an oath upon their Martial Souls to guarantee the safety of the three while they were at the academy.
The reason was simple: the Three Board of Education didn't believe Xiao Lin and the others would become Super Douluo level powerhouses within a few years while at school, so naturally, they wouldn't go seeking revenge during that time.
Furthermore, the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy didn't have a school motto like "one is a mediocre talent if they don't dare to cause trouble." Developing peacefully at school, given their status as monsters, they would likely only reach the rank of Soul Saint at most.
If that was the case, what did they have to worry about?
Thus, the Three Board of Education agreed without any burden.
After confirming the Three Board of Education had sworn on their Martial Souls, Tang Hao nodded in satisfaction. He then pushed the golden-haired girl—who looked annoyed with everyone she saw—to the front.
"This girl is my goddaughter, Tang Ni. She is 12 years old, her Martial Soul is the Golden Dragon, and she is already a Rank 38 Soul Elder."
"Tang Ni, greet the Three Board of Education."
"Yes, Father. Good evening, Board of Education."
Tang Ni still maintained her "hates-the-world" expression, though a slight smile finally touched her face.
Beneath her cascading golden hair, her peerless beauty was like melting frost, suddenly brimming with vitality—an aesthetic that, for a moment, seemed to outshine a hundred blooming flowers.
"Good, good! Tang Ni is excellent!" Meng Shenji laughed heartily toward the ceiling.
This was yet another monster, no less impressive than Xiao Lin and his group.
"Very well, I will arrange identification papers for Tang Ni and set her up in an independent dormitory," Zhi Lin added.
Shortly after, he summoned a female student to prepare Tang Ni's enrollment documents.
"Since that is settled, I shall take my leave." Seeing the business concluded, Tang Hao didn't linger.
With a flash, he vanished from before the Three Board of Education.
"Four monsters. Our Heaven Dou Imperial Academy is destined to win the championship!" In the office, the Three Board of Education resumed their pleasant daydreams of victory.
Elsewhere, Tang Ni was led to the girls' dormitory by a senior student.
After finding her room, she bid the senior a sweet farewell. Once inside the room, Tang Ni's expression instantly shifted.
"Damn that Tang Hao!"
Tang Ni was originally the Three Eyed Golden Lion from the Star Dou Forest, representing destiny itself. Because she had absorbed some of the cultivation of the Skydream Ice Worm, she had already become a ten-thousand-year soul beast.
Normally, a Three Eyed Golden Lion would not absorb soul power so rapidly to increase strength because, with her talent, breaking through to the one-hundred-thousand-year rank was never in doubt.
As for surviving the subsequent lightning tribulation, that would depend on luck. However, the luck of the Three Eyed Golden Lion clan was generally poor, usually resulting in the maximum intensity of the one-hundred-thousand-year lightning tribulation.
For this reason, even Di Tian wouldn't allow her to absorb the Skydream Ice Worm's soul power. Yet, this time, she had succeeded in absorbing it and escaped. She had come to Nuoding City intending to find another transformed soul beast—Xiao Wu.
However, when she arrived, Xiao Wu and the others had just left for Heaven Dou City with Xiao Lin. While near Nuoding City, she sensed the aura of another one-hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast.
Using the Eye of Destiny to investigate, she found the cave where Tang Hao had placed the Blue Silver Emperor seed. She was discovered by Tang Hao, though he failed to realize she was a transformed soul beast.
Because she remarked that the Blue Silver Grass enjoyed absorbing sunlight, Tang Hao, for some reason, went into a frenzy of joy. When the Blue Silver Grass began to sway and cheer in the sunlight Tang Hao provided, he was moved to tears and wanted to thank Tang Ni properly.
During their chat, Tang Hao discovered her name was Tang Ni, and it followed naturally that he took her in as his goddaughter.
Of course, Tang Hao also valued Tang Ni's immense talent; he didn't hide this fact and brought her to the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, hoping she would become close with Tang San and the others.
What Tang Hao didn't know was that the Three Eyed Golden Lion had provided her own identity; she had used her Eye of Destiny to decide her name would be Tang Ni.
