Chapter 242 Buying a Soul Bone.
When the two arrived to collect their soul bone, led by a staff member, the auction house manager was stunned.
The two were far too young and seemed incredibly naive. How dare they auction off such a valuable item as a soul bone in their ordinary appearance? Weren't they afraid of being robbed? Although the Douluo Federation claimed to be a society governed by law, there were still some criminals who would kill and rob for valuable items, even if it meant fleeing to the ends of the earth.
Some even used various methods to hide after committing crimes, making them untraceable even to the Douluo Alliance's adjudication department.
Seeing their nonchalant attitude, the auction house manager reminded them, "Friends, this soul bone is far too valuable. You'd better conceal your identities; it would be troublesome if you attracted any criminals."
Wang Lanfang, however, remained unconcerned: "Criminals? It would be more fun if those criminals came. That way, I wouldn't have to bother looking for them."
The auction house manager couldn't help but think to himself: Whose young master and young lady are these? "Aren't you really worried about your safety?"
Wang Mingxu replied with a warm smile, "Don't worry, we're perfectly safe."
Seeing that his persuasion was futile, the auction house manager could only shake his head, secretly sighing that the two were somewhat arrogant.
Ultimately, the auction proceeded normally with the transfer of the soul bone, receiving 3.5 million gold soul coins before handing it to Wang Lanfang.
It wasn't surprising that the two weren't worried about their safety; their strength was indeed considerable.
Wang Mingxu was currently a level 73 Soul Saint, with one yellow, two purple, three black, and one red soul ring, and a 100,000-year-old right arm soul bone. Wang Lanfang was a level 74 Soul Saint, with one yellow, two purple, three black, and one red soul ring, and a 100,000-year-old left leg soul bone.
In terms of pure strength, they could even fight a Soul Douluo. Even against a Title Douluo, they could use the speed of the Fire Phoenix to quickly leave the battlefield, especially Wang Lanfang, whose left leg soul bone actually provided her with a teleportation skill.
In case of any insurmountable opponent, they could simply teleport away with their younger brother and quickly fly back to the Elemental Academy. After all, their mother was already at level 98 in spirit power, and while their father's spirit power was unknown, it certainly wouldn't be low. Moreover, their father had instructed them before they left that as long as they didn't violate the laws of the Douluo Federation, the Elemental Academy could easily handle anyone they provoked.
Furthermore, it seemed that many people from Harajuku Academy held high-ranking positions in the Douluo Federation government, especially Wang Lanfang's maternal grandfather, who was the Minister of Education, a powerful and influential figure, and Wang Mingxu's maternal grandmother also held a high position in the Douluo Federation government.
In a sense, the two were definitely second-generation officials and powerful second-generation individuals; they were already being generous by not provoking others, let alone fearing trouble.
The auction house manager was speechless at their expressions.
After obtaining the spirit bones, the two swaggered away from the Soul Arena, seemingly unafraid of anyone coming after them.
It's unclear whether it's because of the good security in Tiandou City, or because there's a Title Douluo in charge, but surprisingly no one has come to rob them yet, although several pairs of eyes have begun to follow the two.
After returning to the hotel, Wang Lanfang asked, "Mingxu, what are your plans for tomorrow? Do you have any plans to go anywhere?"
"Sister, I don't plan to go out tomorrow. I plan to visit a few nearby academies."
"Academy? What's so interesting about an academy?"
"Heaven Dou City is one of the most prosperous cities, with excellent educational resources. There are a few decent-looking advanced Soul Master academies."
Wang Lanfang scoffed, "Advanced Soul Master academies? Where in this world are there any decent advanced Soul Master academies? No matter which one, they probably can't compare to our Elemental Academy."
"Although these advanced Soul Master academies aren't as good as our Elemental Academy, let's still take a look. After all, they'll have their own teaching style."
"Alright then, I'd like to go see the advanced Soul Master academy you mentioned tomorrow."
Since the establishment of the Douluo Federation, Wang Xiaofei built a large-scale advanced Soul Master academy near Phoenix City. This academy was also named Elemental Academy, but it was just a branch; the main academy remained in the old location.
After the Ministry of Education was established, to encourage all Soul Masters to study hard, the Ministry of Education, in cooperation with other departments, organized the Douluo Federation Advanced Soul Master Competition starting in the second year of the Douluo Federation's founding.
The rewards for each competition were very generous; the top three prizes were Soul Bones or high-grade herbs, which were of considerable value.
Elemental Academy had won the championship in the previous three competitions, even without Wang Lanfang and Wang Mingxu participating.
Wang Lanfang had initially been eager to participate, but her father immediately dampened her enthusiasm: "You're already a high-level Soul King. What's so great about competing against Soul Venerables and even the highest-ranking Soul Masters? Even if you win, what's there to be proud of?"
Therefore, Wang Lanfang was somewhat disappointed. Now that her younger brother was going to exchange at an advanced Soul Master Academy, she naturally wanted to go and see him.
Since the fall of several major empires, the three most famous academies on the continent had all closed down, including the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the Star Luo Royal Academy, and the Spirit Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy. The Heaven Dou Royal Academy became the Heaven Dou Advanced Soul Master Academy, and the Star Luo Royal Academy became the Star Luo City Advanced Soul Master Academy. Both academies are now ordinary Soul Master academies, without any special policies.
As for the original Spirit Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy, most of its members were incorporated into the Phoenix City branch of the Elemental Academy, while a small number were taken over by Qian Renxue and established the Angel City Advanced Soul Master Academy, whose influence was limited to the vicinity of Angel City.
Early the next morning, the two first went to the Heaven Dou City Advanced Soul Master Academy, located about 20 kilometers outside Heaven Dou City.
Upon arriving, they each presented their Soul Master certificates and Elemental Academy teacher certificates, receiving a warm welcome.
However, after touring the academy, they were immediately disappointed.
The environment of this Soul Master Academy was excellent, with superb learning conditions, especially the various simulated environments, but the student quality was simply too poor; it was estimated that there were hardly any Soul Grandmaster students.
In contrast, the original academy, through years of development, had one or two Soul Grandmasters in each department every year, and one or two Soul Kings within the entire academy. It could be said that each participating team was basically led by a Soul King, with all members being Soul Grandmasters.
It was precisely because of this powerful lineup that they repeatedly won championships.
