Chapter 18: Principal Kieran's First Lesson

The sky was dark and the wind was cold, Wu Ling wrapped the red cloak that Mu Ruxue temporarily lent him, and measured every inch of land on the island on foot, eager to find a little shadow of his father.

When he was tired, he returned to the chess table and sat down, revealing the master-apprentice knot in his palm, looking at the word 'dance' in a daze.

"I won't let you marry Qianxue Shenji!"

Wu Ling clenched his five fingers fiercely.

Early the next morning, when Mu Ruxue walked out of the red brick house wrapped in a white nightgown, she saw the figure practicing swords on the ice of the lake.

He stepped on the snow, his body was elegant, his moves were swift, and his sword was like the wind.

Mu Ruxue nodded appreciatively and shouted, "Wu Ling, come to me to rest for a while!" ”

Wu Ling stopped, and Edgeworth came to the red brick house, and as soon as he entered the door, a wave of heat rushed in.

In the bathroom, Mu Ruxue was bathing and changing clothes, and the white nightgown was placed on the sofa.

And at the dinner table by the fire, the dwarf Langdon had already prepared breakfast.

The bathroom door opened, Mu Ruxue changed into a gray tunic coat, and walked out with her long wet hair, sexy and charming.

She sat down by the fire, began to bake and rub her long hair, and chatted with Wu Ling: "Do you get up early every day to practice swords?" ”

"Hmm."

"Why are you fighting so hard?"

"It's a habit."

After breakfast, Mu Ruxue took out a black robe from the bedroom and handed it to Wu Ling: "This is what your father wore before, and it should be appropriate for you to wear it now." ”

Wu Ling nodded and thanked him, and immediately felt a lot warmer after putting it on.

Out of the 'Ruxue Garden', the two came to the square again, and the freshmen who signed up yesterday also arrived here one after another.

On the stage, an old man stood, waiting for their arrival.

The old man looked ordinary, and the only thing that impressed him was his long white beard, which was tied into several pinches and drooped from his mouth like a curtain.

The old man stood on the stage, looking at everyone in the audience kindly, with a kind face, he didn't feel any power from him, like an ordinary person.

"What are you doing standing up there, old man, didn't you say that Principal Kiran is going to teach us a lesson, someone else?" A noble boy who summoned the Flowing Heaven Class shouted arrogantly.

"Don't be rude!" His teacher Angel was startled, and immediately scolded, "This person on the stage is our great Principal Kieran, how can you be presumptuous, don't apologize quickly!" ”

"He's Headmaster Kieran!"

Everyone was shocked, the legendary 'Soul Saint' level figure looked so ordinary, and this was Kieran, according to legend, he was the closest to becoming a Soul Emperor in the Soul Saint!

Principal Kieran waved his hand at Angel, signaling him not to blame the child, and said in a kind voice: "Children, first of all, I want to congratulate you on joining the Divine Soul Academy, this will be the place where you will grow and progress, and it will also be the place where your sweat and tears will be left. Before starting your career as a sea student, I would like to ask you a question: Why did you join the Divine Soul Academy? ”

"There's a powerful soul skill here!" Someone immediately replied.

"That's right." Kiran nodded and said, "There are countless soul skills in the Divine Soul Academy, as long as you are willing to work hard, the higher the realm, the better the soul skills you get." But most of you are from the aristocracy, and there is actually no shortage of soul skills in your family, so why do you come to the academy in one fell swoop? ”

"Because there are many people here and there is a lot of competition, I can urge myself to cultivate and study."

"Then what is the purpose of your cultivation and study?" Kieran asked again.

"To get stronger!"

"In order to inherit the position of head of the family in the future!"

"To get the woman I like!"

"For the rise of the family!"

Kieran nodded, these people did say what was most truly in their hearts, and continued to ask, "Is there no other reason?" ”

There was silence in the audience, not knowing what kind of answer Principal Kieran wanted.

"I'll take you to a place to visit."

Kieran beckoned, and a magic circle suddenly appeared in the sky, and a huge blue bird flew out of the magic circle, and then Kiran raised his hand slightly, and everyone came to the back of the blue bird.

The bluebird fluttered its wings and came to the sky, and below was the endless appearance of the central city, which was embellished with various lights, bright and gorgeous.

In the heart of Canterlot, however, it was pitch black and shrouded in an endless mist.

It was originally the most prosperous area of the central city, with thousands of stories of buildings and towering palaces, and was called a city within a city.

In the center of the city is a bottomless black hole with a radius of 10 kilometers, connecting the third and fourth levels of hell, which used to be a passage between the two, known as the 'Abyss Ferry'.

However, since an evil organization called 'Night' destroyed the teleportation circle in the ferry, it can only enter from the upper hell to the lower hell, and cannot return the other way around.

The blue bird fell at the boundary of the ferry, looking at the abyss under their feet, many people were so frightened that they couldn't help but tremble, and unconsciously retreated.

"Does anyone know what's beneath the abyss?" Kieran asked.

"I know." A chubby little hand immediately raised and replied, "It's the fourth layer of hell!" ”

"Isn't this nonsense?" Someone scoffed, "Below the third level of hell is of course the fourth layer of hell, but could the answer that Principal Kiran wants be that simple!" ”

Kieran nodded and said, "That's right, it's also hell, like the underworld, where our compatriots should live, but now it's a ruin and a battlefield, where ghosts roam, demons roar, and they have their eyes on the underworld. ”

Everyone was silent, how prosperous the hell used to be, from the first to the seventh floor was full of ghosts, but until that year, an evil organization called 'Night' infiltrated the ninth layer of hell, unsealed and awakened the 'Ghost King', and a large number of ghosts swarmed out.

They have been fed on their souls, they are the natural enemies of ghosts, and under the leadership of the members of the 'Night' organization, they have driven all the way up to conquer all levels of hell, and no one can stop them!

The seventh layer of hell to the fourth layer of hell fell one after another, and the Soul Emperor died, until he came to the third layer of the underworld, the Holy See Pope and the second layer of the Music Realm Temple Master joined forces to lead hundreds of soul saints to besiege and kill the leader of the 'Night' organization, the Night Monarch.

The Soul Realm got the opportunity to kick it, and then the Joy Realm and the Underworld united, sounded the horn of counterattack, and organized the Soul Realm Army, known as the most powerful in history, to set off from the Abyss Ferry to the lower hell, starting a mighty battle of recovery that lasted for more than a hundred years.

Until now, the war has continued, because the teleportation circle has been destroyed, and no one can return, so there is no way to get to the bottom of the battle.

In order to ensure the victory of the war, the Soul Realm will regularly send a group of powerful soul refiners into the following every year to act as fresh war blood.

Kieran continued: "I know that you are all nobles and have endless glory and wealth, but this enjoyment must be based on the stability of the underworld, so in order to keep your wealth, to protect the lover in your heart, and for the ideals you just spoke, you must be like your fathers, selfless and fearless, and take the defense of the underworld as your life mission!"

If one day, you hear the call of the battlefield, I hope that everyone in the Divine Soul Academy can stand up bravely instead of running away, because escaping is a coward's act, and only warriors dare to rush forward!

I hope that everyone here can make me proud of you, so now tell me: what is the purpose of your joining the Divine Soul Academy? ”

"Fight off the ghosts, reclaim lost ground, and defend the underworld!" Angel took the lead and shouted.

"Fight off the ghosts, reclaim lost ground, and defend the underworld!" The loud and neat slogan immediately spread everywhere, echoing in the abyss ferry for a long time.

After that, under the guidance of Mr. Angel, everyone else left on the Blue Bird, ending their first day of classes.

"Wu Ling, you stay."

Just as Wu Ling was about to leave together, Principal Kiran suddenly stopped him.
