Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 157 Ye Yulin

What happened in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy did not cause much impact. Ordinary people in Mingdu just thought that Mingde Hall was testing some new soul guide device.

For all the students in the academy, there is something more important that deserves their attention.

Before daybreak, banners were hung inside the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy. Teachers who had been prepared stood on both sides of the academy gate. Many students also came to join in the fun and stood not far away to watch.

Not long after, more than a dozen figures appeared from the street in the distance and walked towards the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.

They were the teachers and fourteen students who participated in the Soul Fighting Competition. As soon as they approached, applause broke out.

In the Xingluo Empire, they didn't receive much enthusiastic cheering after winning the championship, but here, all the teachers and students showed their enthusiasm without reservation.

"Welcome back."

Lin Jiayi stood at the front, his eyes slowly sweeping over, finally stopping at Ma Rulong's father, "The hall master is waiting for you in Mingde Hall."

"Yeah." Ma Rulong's father nodded, and walked through the crowd with the students who participated in the Fighting Spirit Competition and headed towards Mingde Hall.

After participating in the Soul Fighting Competition for so many years, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy defeated Shrek Academy for the first time to win the championship. Even those students who had just enrolled were proud of it.

After taking a look at their backs from a distance, Lin Jiayi turned around and looked at Lin Xiao.

"Teacher, you have looked at me several times this morning." Lin Xiao smiled helplessly.

"I was just thinking, if it weren't for your soul guide, the outcome of this fighting soul competition might be..."

"How could that be?" Lin Xiao shook his head. "The real winners of the competition are these outstanding students. Without them, no one would be able to use even the best soul guides."

"Don't be so modest. The Hall Master and I have seen everything you've done." Lin Jiayi said as he also walked towards Mingde Hall. "After you enter Mingde Hall, I may not have the time to teach you like I did before."

"However, the hall master has also arranged other people in Mingde Hall."

Lin Jiayi glanced at Lin Xiao again and asked, "Ye Yulin, have you ever heard of this name?"

"Star Douluo Ye Yulin?"

"Yes, Starry Sky Douluo is not only a ninth-level soul engineer in Mingde Hall, but also serves in the Imperial Worship Hall. His soul guide research direction is somewhat similar to your self-propelled soul guide cannon. After entering Mingde Hall, if you have any questions, you can ask him."

"Also, if you follow Starry Sky Douluo, you might even have the opportunity to participate in the production of a ninth-level soul guide. This is a very rare experience and will be of great benefit to your future breakthrough to the ninth-level soul guide."

Lin Xiao followed behind Lin Jiayi, knowing full well that Lin Jiayi must have put in a lot of effort to have such an opportunity.

Although Mingde Hall is indeed a holy place in the minds of countless soul masters, not all soul masters have the opportunity to follow the ninth-level soul masters after entering Mingde Hall.

Even though he had contributed to the victory of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy in this Soul Fighting Competition, it was because someone interceded for him that he had the opportunity to stay with Ye Yulin.

"Thank you, teacher." "No need to thank me. The hall master has always thought highly of you, and you've contributed a lot to this Soul Battle Tournament. This is a reward for you. Come on, I'll take you to visit Starry Sky Douluo."

Walking through the broad road in the academy, the students I met on the way all had smiles on their faces, and seemed to be discussing the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy's victory.

"Alas." Just listening to the discussions of those students, Lin Jiayi sighed softly.

"What's wrong, teacher?"

Lin Jiayi glanced around and said, "Since the news of winning the Soul Fighting Competition spread back to Mingdu, all the students in the academy seem to have changed their minds."

"Although we won the championship this time, the fact that Shrek Academy was able to take second place with three regular players is enough to show the fighting strength of the spirit masters. I'm afraid that if this atmosphere in the academy continues, it won't be a good thing."

As the Dean of Studies at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, Lin Jiayi is naturally capable and can see further than some teachers and students. He knows that the power of a soul master is definitely not as terrible as some people say.

"There's something I haven't told you yet. Just when you were going to participate in the Fighting Spirit Competition, the Hall Master received an invitation from Shrek Academy. They wanted us to exchange students for a period of study."

"That's a good thing." Lin Xiao nodded, not feeling too surprised. He knew that Shrek Academy was also trying to develop soul guides at this time, and it was only a matter of time before such an invitation was made.

"Do you think the people from Shrek Academy can make our students change their views on soul masters?"

Lin Xiao nodded. "Although as a member of the academy, I shouldn't say this, but the students in Shrek Academy are indeed the best soul masters among their peers."

"There's nothing wrong with saying this." Lin Jiayi didn't react much to Lin Xiao's words. Instead, he nodded thoughtfully, "The hall master also told me the same thing."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. We're here."

While the two were talking, Lin Jiayi had already brought Lin Xiao into Mingde Hall, walked through the corridor, and came to a metal door. As the door slowly opened to both sides, a tall old man slowly appeared in front of Lin Xiao.

Although Ye Yulin's face had many wrinkles, his complexion was rosy and he did not look old at all. He looked at Lin Xiao with sharp eyes, but the bald spot on his head made his aura instantly diminish.

That’s right, Ye Yulin, a ninth-level soul engineer with the title “Starry Sky” who is unmatched in the field of high-altitude soul guidance equipment, also has his own troubles.

"Are you Lin Xiao?"

"Yes, Mr. Ye."

"Yes, I have seen your soul guide. Although it has some ingenuity, its essence is just a combination of the most basic soul guide cannon and a charging soul guide. If you want to break through to a higher level, you still need to work hard."

"Yes." Lin Xiao nodded. Ye Yulin was right. Although it wasn't obvious yet, if the self-propelled soul guide cannon wanted to break through to a higher level, it wouldn't be possible simply by increasing its power.

And if he remembered correctly, the Sun and Moon Divine Needle made by Ye Yulin was not only extremely powerful, but could also absorb energy from the sun and the moon to recharge, and had the ability to search for enemies over a large range. Even if he could only understand a general idea, these things would be enough for him to learn for a long time.

"Alright, I heard from the Hall Master that you previously interned at Mingde Hall. So, I don't need to explain everything here again. Just like before, go to the lab table outside. That's how you slowly accumulate experience in crafting soul guides."
