Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 16 Hongchen, I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious yet

"We still need to give it a name? Why is that so troublesome? Isn't it enough to just be able to use it?"

Looking at Xuan Ziwen's teasing eyes, he blushed and coughed:
"Since it can fuse soul power and looks like a plate, let's call it a fusion plate."

Xuan Ziwen shook his head with a teasing expression, and said helplessly:

"Your name is really simple and crude. You haven't read any books at all."

Lin Dong could only look at him and smile faintly: "Isn't it enough for you to tell me? Why waste that time?"

"Okay, okay, it's your own doing anyway, you decide for yourself, come on, I'll take you to see Dean Hongchen."

Lin Dong nodded and followed Xuan Ziwen out of the laboratory.

The two soon came to an inconspicuous building with three large characters "Mingde Hall" engraved on a plaque at the door.

Lin Dong looked up at the simple building in front of him. Before he could ask any questions, Xuan Ziwen took the initiative to explain to him:

"This is Mingde Hall. Dean Hongchen is also the head of the hall. If you can get his consent, you can have access to the most advanced soul guide in the entire continent."

After hearing his explanation, Lin Dong nodded, looked at Xuan Ziwen and smiled:
"Then please don't forget our agreement later, teacher."

Xuan Ziwen nodded: "Don't worry, I still need to understand your core formation."

Then, as if remembering something, he reminded solemnly:

"Mingde Hall is not as casual as the laboratory. Your every word and action is under surveillance. Try not to make any strange movements, otherwise the patrol team will judge you as having ill intentions."

Lin Dong nodded very sensibly after hearing this, and after a moment he said thoughtfully:

"Then I don't have permission to enter now, what should I do?"

Xuan Ziwen smiled after hearing this: "It's okay, as long as you follow me and don't do anything strange, it shouldn't have much of an impact. You should first think about how to persuade Dean Hongchen."

Lin Dong showed a confident smile: "Don't worry, teacher, you just need to do what you are supposed to do."

Lin Dong followed Xuan Ziwen and stepped into the building which covered an area of ​​less than 500 square meters.

After passing through three different checkpoints, Lin Dong and the other person had already entered the interior of Mingde Hall.

What Lin Dong saw was an arc-shaped elevator with a metallic texture, which could accommodate more than ten people.

Xuan Ziwen took Lin Dong to one of the elevators, took out his ID card, and swiped it across a soul guide.

Then he grasped the metal column in the middle of the elevator and injected soul power into it, and the elevator immediately fell slowly downwards.

About two minutes later, Lin Dong was somewhat surprised to find that they seemed to have gone a hundred meters underground.

After the elevator opened, a metallic world appeared in Lin Dong's eyes. The arc-shaped hall was almost entirely made up of various metals.

Lin Dong looked at so much metal and couldn't help but wonder what kind of "soul guide" he would be able to refine after reaching level 40.

After walking through a short corridor, an extremely shocking scene appeared before Lin Dong's eyes.

In the wide hall, countless five-meter by three-meter laboratory tables are neatly arranged, extending into the darkness. There are at least fifty tables in a horizontal row.

Behind most of the experimental tables, various soul guides were conducting experiments in an orderly manner. Even with Lin Dong's temperament, he was inevitably shocked. Although he had countless question marks in his mind, he did not show them clearly.

Xuan Ziwen looked at him from the corner of his eye, seeing his calm expression, he sighed in his heart:

This little guy's character is indeed as tenacious as the dean said. Coupled with his terrifying talent, it won't take long for him to catch up with me.

The two of them didn't know that in a room deep in Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen had a file in front of him. He was sitting on a stool, silently observing their actions through a soul guide screen.

Lin Jiayi stood beside Jing Hongchen and asked tentatively:
"Master, this young man's file only shows that he came to Mingdu with the Sun and Moon caravan, but there is no information about his parents, hometown, or past!"

Jing Hongchen frowned and replied softly: "Well, it is indeed strange. The only thing that is certain is the age. Let's wait and see. Such a genius cannot let him have any bad feelings."

Looking at the two people on the soul guide screen, Jing Hongchen once again instructed Lin Jiayi:

"Go out and pick them up. If I'm not mistaken, they should be here to see me. Don't let some brainless idiots offend Lin Dong."

"Yes!" Lin Jiayi replied respectfully and walked out quickly.

Lin Dong and the other person continued to go deeper along the rows of lab tables when they suddenly heard a voice:
"Ziwen, the hall master asked me to take you in."

Lin Dong looked in the direction of the sound and saw a short, fat middle-aged man, smiling and waving at the two of them.

Xuan Ziwen walked up to him and shook hands with him. The latter looked at Lin Dong and smiled softly:
"Hello, my name is Lin Jiayi, and I'm the dean of the college."

Lin Dong gave him a faint smile: "Hello, Director."

Under the guidance of Lin Jiayi, Lin Dong and the other person came to Jing Hongchen's office unhindered and gently pushed the door open.

When Jing Hongchen saw the three people coming in, he stood up, looked at Lin Dong and said with a faint smile:
"Little guy, why are you so anxious to ask Ziwen to bring you to me? I wonder why?"

Lin Dong winked at Xuan Ziwen, who then stepped forward and said in a deep voice:

"Master, we are here this time to apply for an opportunity for Lin Dong to study in Mingde Hall."

Hearing his words, Jing Hongchen's face, which had just been smiling, instantly turned cold.

Thinking back to Lin Dong's file just now, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious, but he still tried his best to restrain himself. He looked at Xuan Ziwen and said in a somewhat reproachful tone:
“Ziwen, I can understand that Lin Dong can say such things since he is young, but are you still ignorant at your age?”

Xuan Ziwen seemed to have expected this. He looked at Lin Dong with a bitter smile, waiting for his next response.

Seeing that Lin Dong didn't say anything, Jing Hongchen forced himself to calm down and looked at him with a rather calm tone:

“Lin Dong, I know that your soul skills give you a unique talent in soul guides, but you have only been exposed to soul guides for a few days, and your current level is not high enough.”

I understand that young people tend to be eager for quick success and instant benefits when cultivating. So, you can just focus on cultivating first, and we can discuss this matter later."

Lin Jiayi, who was standing aside, looked at Lin Dong with eyes that changed from admiration to mockery. He was not even a first-level soul engineer, but he wanted to enter Mingde Hall. He was so ignorant at such a young age!
Glancing at Jing Hongchen's calm expression, Lin Jiayi knew that once he spoke in this tone, there would be no room for negotiation.

Xuan Ziwen became a little anxious when he saw Lin Dong remained silent for a long time. This kid was usually so calm, could he be so scared that he dared not speak now?

Feeling the depressing atmosphere in the room, under Xuan Ziwen's puzzled eyes, Lin Dong slowly raised his head, looked at Jing Hongchen and whispered:

"Dean, please don't be so quick to refuse. I want to ask you to look at something."
