Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: Xiao Hongchen: There is no place for me in this cold Hongchen family...

Without bothering to wipe the tea off his face, Lin Jiayi anxiously reported the situation to the dean: "Dean, our college's freshman entrance physical examination has just ended, and we found that the soul conductor tester and strength tester used to test the physical fitness of freshmen are missing, and some gold soul coins are left in their place."

Hearing this, the anger that was about to rise in Jing Hongchen's eyes turned into surprise. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide and asked again in disbelief: "You mean, only the physical examination equipment was stolen, and the thief also left the money?"

Lin Jiayi nodded honestly: "That's what the people below said. I went to the scene and saw that those gold soul coins can just buy two sixth-level soul guides on the market."

Jing Hongchen: "...???"

Are all thieves so moral these days? No, can't he buy it if he has money? Does he have to be a thief for the thrill?

The Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy is not a military area, but its defenses are also extraordinary. Even if an eight-ringed Soul Douluo or an eighth-level soul instructor comes in to steal things, they may not be able to escape unscathed.

What's more, he, the leader of Hongchen Hall, is not a good person. He doesn't think that people who are capable of coming here to steal things will not worry about his revenge.

And since we are here, why do we just steal two level 6 soul guide instruments? Wouldn't a level 7 or 8 soul guide be better?

Even though Jing Hongchen was knowledgeable and experienced, he was still a little confused by this sudden and strange message.

Seeing that the dean was confused, Lin Jiayi quickly took out a jet-black envelope from his arms and handed it over: "Also, dean, I found this in that pile of gold soul coins. It has a Titled Douluo-level soul power seal on it."

"That's the right feeling. He is not a thief. He just wants to pass on a message to this hall master."

Jing Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief, took the envelope, and injected some soul power into it. Six ink words suddenly appeared on the cover: From Dean Hongchen himself.

"Oh, this is interesting. I didn't expect that he is not only not a thief, but also not from my Sun Moon Empire, but from the original Douluo Three Kingdoms."

There was a gleam of wisdom in Jing Hongchen's eyes, and he commented with certainty.

"Dean, why do you think so?" Lin Jiayi tactfully acted as a supporting actor.

"The soul seal on it is very powerful. I can't break it all at once. The Sun-Moon Empire doesn't have such a powerful Titled Douluo, or even a Super Douluo."

Jing Hongchen said this as a matter of course, his voice revealing absolute confidence and a little pride.

Didn't he know the level of soul power of those ninth-level soul masters? Except for Master Kong, none of them was stronger than him, and Master Kong would never joke with him like this.

Moreover, he did not detect any disgusting aura of evil soul masters in this soul power seal. It was obvious that it could only be a powerful soul master from the original Three Kingdoms.

All vanity cannot escape the discerning eyes of the dean Hongchen!

"Ah this..."

Lin Jiayi's flattering words were choked in his throat, and he didn't know how to respond.

Shouldn't we praise the dean for being "quite self-aware and good at judging people"? But would this offend those ninth-level soul guide masters? Fortunately, the dean didn't focus on him, but waved his hand to take out a ninth-level soul guide device that could break the seal. After a while of busy work, he finally broke the seal on it.

Lin Jiayi called the dean extraordinary, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Jing Hongchen's forehead. His eyes gradually became deep, and a cluster of fire appeared.

He was not sure before, but now he is sure that the person who made the move is definitely a Super Douluo, very likely a powerful figure above level ninety-six.

Such a strong man is also a well-known figure in Douluo Three Kingdoms. This kind of provocation makes Jing Hongchen very excited.

"I want to see what you are up to."

He opened the envelope and took out the letter paper. The scribbled handwriting jumped into his eyes, and Jing Hongchen's high-spirited eyes suddenly froze.

"Your grandson has extraordinary talent and has the potential to become a Super Douluo. I hope you can train him well. My Qilin son may compete with him in the future. I will give him three pills as a gift to help the younger generation."

"You're here for Xiao and Meng?"

Jing Hongchen folded the letter and glanced into the envelope. The three small boxes gave off a hint of elixir fragrance and mist.

"Wow, you're quite generous." Jing Hongchen continued to open the small box, and saw three plump, crystal clear, dark blue pills with dan pattern rings lying in the mist.

"Is this the Xuanshui Pill?" Lin Jiayi recognized the types of the three pills at a glance, and his eyes lit up slightly.

The Xuanshui Pill has the effect of cleansing the marrow according to the Book of Changes, and can improve the innate soul power. After taking it, soul masters below level 20 can increase their soul power by at least one level. It is extremely popular among soul masters and is worth a fortune.

This kind of elixir will be a very sought-after item when it appears at the Mingdu Auction. Soul engineers with poor foundations love this treasure the most because it can cleanse impurities from the body.

Poor-quality pills will affect your foundation, while high-quality pills will enhance your foundation!

"Yes, it is indeed Xuanshui Pill, and it is of high quality and rich in medicinal power." Jing Hongchen took out the eighth-level detector and scanned it a few times, but no adverse substances were detected.

"Then Dean, what should we do with this pill..."

"What should I do? Of course I should eat it." Jing Hongchen fed himself a pill, chewed it and waved his hand:

"Go and call Xiao and Meng for me and tell them there's something good. They just broke through level 20 and it's just right for them to take this."

"Oh, yes." Lin Jiayi nodded, turned around and walked out of the office quickly, thinking to himself that the dean was really lucky, as his grandchildren could get benefits as soon as they entered school.

After seeing Lin Jiayi off, Jing Hongchen silently felt the power of the medicine, staring at the two glowing pills thoughtfully.

This Xuanshui Pill is said to be a secret medicine from a hidden sect in the Douluo Three Kingdoms. Three pills were given at once. Could the person who came here be related to the mysterious hidden sect? Or is he simply a strong man from the hidden sect? But it doesn't matter. He has absolute confidence in his grandchildren, especially Xiao, who has awakened the spirit of a divine beast. He is also the top genius in Shrek.

"Qilin'er? The genius of my Hongchen family is not comparable to those useless people in the past. This dean wants to see how capable your genius is. He is so confident. I think your descendant is in Shrek..."

"Humph, Shrek has been number one for ten thousand years, but my Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy will not be content to be number two for a thousand years. Mingde Hall will surely create new glory under the leadership of this hall master…"

Jing Hongchen gently clenched his palms, his eyes filled with confidence and ambition.

"Buzz——"

Not long after, the office door opened again, and two silver-haired teenagers, a boy and a girl, trotted in briskly.

"Grandpa, what do you want to talk to us about? I still need to go to the library to study and take the exam for the next level soul guide certificate."

Xiao Hongchen, whose eyes and eyebrows already showed some edges, walked up to Jing Hongchen in a carefree manner, with the corners of his mouth raised and a very serious smile on his face.

Seeing his grandson so motivated, Jing Hongchen suddenly felt relieved. He touched Xiao Hongchen's forehead kindly and said with a gentle smile, "Of course I called you here for a good reason. You are still young, and there is no rush to take the soul mentor exam. You have just entered the academy, so you should communicate more with your classmates. This is the best academy in our Sun Moon Empire, and it won't hurt to make more friends."

Xiao Hongchen shook her head seriously, "No, people outside are watching us now, I can't bring shame to the Hongchen family."

His face was full of an expression that said "it is my responsibility to carry on the family tradition" and he expressed his ambitions with great enthusiasm.

"Xiao, Grandpa must have a reason for asking us to make more friends. If the Hongchen Family wants to become stronger in the future, we may need the help of friends."

A clear and melodious sound like a wind chime rang out, and Meng Hongchen blinked his lively eyes and made an expression as if scolding a child.

He tried very hard to act like an adult, but his silver hair and rosy cheeks were not intimidating at all.

Xiao Hongchen raised his head proudly, curled his lips and crossed his chest, and said in a deep tone:

"Meng, we are geniuses that only appear once in a thousand years in the Sun-Moon Empire. There is no opponent in the academy that is worthy of my attention. Perhaps only in Shrek Academy can we find such people."

"In the next All-Continent High-Level Soul Master Academy Competition, I will definitely show my skills, and I hope those people will not let me down..."

Today is his first time arriving at the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy. He has come to realize that there are only so many talented people in the world. He, Xiao Hongchen, is bound to create history for the Sun-Moon Empire and become the number one genius of the Sun-Moon Empire in the future!

"(ˉ▽ ̄~)Tsk~~"

Meng Hongchen sneered at him, turned around and ignored this arrogant brother, not buying it at all.

Xiao Hongchen's eyes twitched, but he insisted on keeping a straight face, telling himself that this was his own sister, so he shouldn't be angry, shouldn't be angry, it wouldn't matter this time anyway...

Jing Hongchen smiled and enjoyed the family happiness. He waited until the two of them finished talking before handing over the Xuanshui Pill.

"Here, this is the best elixir from the Douluo Three Kingdoms. It was given to me by a Titled Douluo from the Douluo Three Kingdoms. Eat it here, and I will protect you."

Xiao Hongchen took the Xuanshui Pill, and a bunch of question marks popped up in front of his head, "Grandpa, what's going on? Could it be that the Titled Douluo has abandoned the dark and joined our Sun Moon Empire?"

"Haha, that person is challenging you two on behalf of his talented son, saying that he will compete with you in the future."

Xiao Hongchen's eyes sparkled with excitement when he heard this. "That's great. I hope that the descendant of the Titled Douluo is strong enough and won't be defeated by me in just a few moves."

Meng Hongchen squinted her beautiful eyes and looked at Xuanshui Dan, and suddenly smiled: "I hope you don't lose the fight, it would be better if you get beaten down by others."

Xiao Hongchen's body froze, and he almost dropped the Xuanshui Pill between his fingers: "Meng...will you die if you don't get mad at me?"

"Hehe, no, but I'm very happy about this; you are the first genius of the Sun Moon Empire in a thousand years, so you must be strong inside."

"You're making trouble for me every day. Which side are you on?"

Meng Hongchen thought about it for a while, and said seriously: "Well...it's hard to say. If that Three Kingdoms genius is more handsome, maybe I will fight you together with him. It's hard to say."

Xiao Hongchen covered his face with his hands as if he was in a state of collapse, then turned to Jing Hongchen and complained: "Ah ah... Grandpa, look at her..."

Jing Hongchen didn't take it seriously at all. He smiled and comforted her, "Xiao, Meng is right. She is Your sister. As her brother, you should be more tolerant..."

"You, you guys…"

Xiao Hongchen looked at the two of them with grief and anger, feeling that there was no place for him in this cold Hongchen family anymore. He turned his grief and anger into appetite, swallowed the Xuanshui Pill in one gulp, and then sat cross-legged in meditation, out of sight and out of mind.

"Damned Three Kingdoms genius, don't let me meet you so early, otherwise I will definitely defeat you ruthlessly in front of Meng and restore my dignity as a brother..."

At noon, Xu Xiaoyun returned walking on the clouds, and the outline of the Xuanming Sect's manor came into view.

"After meeting Old Dragon this time and sending a letter to Jing Hongchen, it should be much safer for Tianxi to practice in the Sun Moon Empire in the future..."

Xu Xiaoyun walked in the air along the stone road, reviewing the plan in his mind and trying to figure out what else could be done.

Suddenly, Xu Sanshi's screams of grief and anger came from not far away, which made him unable to help but walk over quickly.

"Ah, Tianxi, what did you eat? Stop chasing me, I can't stand it anymore!"

Xu Xiaoyun: "..."

Where did Sanshi learn all these crap? He deserves to be beaten!
