Transmigrating into Huo Yuhao, my abilities are refreshed every month.

He remembered that Teacher Zhiwei had advised him not to be too distracted, but then directly recommended him to Shrek Academy's strongest Soul Master.

Teacher Zhiwei really values ​​me! I have to repay him properly in the future. I must do everything I can to get him to leave Shrek Academy and help him find ten or eight wives so that the Spirit of Food can be passed down properly.

Huo Yuhao turned his gaze to Xian Lin'er, looking at the dean of the Soul Guidance Department with curiosity.

She is stunningly beautiful, has a cool and aloof demeanor, and an imposing presence; she is a mature and sophisticated woman.

In the original novel, this person seems to be only husband and wife to Qian Duoduo in name only, oh dear—

A virgin married woman, a cold and aloof older sister—Huo Yuhao suddenly found these attributes rather charming.

Although he lacked the spirit of Cao Cao and did not want to inherit Cao Cao's ambition, what could he do when the marriage was only nominal?

"Introduce yourself! Name, age, martial spirit, level," Xian Lin'er's cool voice rang out.

Huo Yuhao replied, "My name is Huo Yuhao, I am twelve years old, my martial soul is Spirit Eye, and my soul power is level 20."

"A Spirit Eye Martial Soul, a physical Martial Soul? Or a Spirit-type Martial Soul?" A slight ripple appeared in Xian Lin'er's clear, cold eyes. "Not bad, a good prospect."

Xian Lin'er shifted her gaze to Zhiwei and said, "Zhiwei, you should go back first. I still need to test him."

Zhiwei nodded and took his leave, giving Huo Yuhao an encouraging look before he went.

Chapter 70: Xianlin'er Wants to Take on a Disciple?

"Tell me why you want to learn about soul tools." Xian Lin'er's clear and ethereal voice was devoid of any emotion.

"I have some ideas in mind that I want to bring to life," Huo Yuhao said.

"That's all?"

That's all.

"Then you shouldn't waste your time learning about soul tools, and the soul tool system isn't suitable for you either." Xian Lin'er's icy voice pronounced the death sentence on Huo Yuhao's soul tool learning.

She hoped more people at Shrek Academy would learn soul tools, but she disliked those who made the decision casually. They'd just be wasting the soul tool department's resources with inconsistent effort.

Huo Yuhao's expression turned serious, and he said, "May I ask the dean a few questions?"

Xianlin'er nodded.

"In the Dean's opinion, what kind of person is suitable to learn how to make soul tools?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"Of course, it's people who love soul tools."

Why are people who are passionate about soul tools suitable for learning soul tools?

"Boy, the learning process of soul tools is tedious and boring. To master soul tools, you need to spend a long time, endless energy, wholehearted dedication, and unwavering persistence. Do you think someone who doesn't love it can do all that?" Xian Lin'er's clear blue eyes were like a clear salt lake, reflecting Huo Yuhao's figure.

Huo Yuhao said, "According to the dean, learning soul tools requires more focus, dedication, and perseverance than passion, right? Passion is just a condition that the dean deduced from these."

Xian Lin'er crossed her fingers in front of her, resting her straight chin on her fair fingers, a cold smile on her lips, her eyes staring coldly at Huo Yuhao through the silver-white laboratory table.

"So you think you can do all this without passion?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head. "It's not just my opinion, it's the truth."

"Heh, I'd like to see where you get your facts from?" Xian Lin'er sneered.

Huo Yuhao asked, "Does the Dean have a passion for soul tools?"

"Of course!" Xian Lin'er said, otherwise she wouldn't have become the dean of the Soul Guidance Department.

Huo Yuhao asked with a smile, "Then why didn't the Dean become a level nine Soul Master?" Was it because he wasn't loved enough?

Huo Yuhao didn't say the last sentence, for fear of being beaten to death.

Huo Yuhao's seemingly mocking question echoed in Xian Lin'er's mind, and her flawless face flushed red for a moment, whether from embarrassment or anger, it was hard to tell.

Why didn't you become a level nine Soul Master?!

Is it that she doesn't want to? Or is it that she can't do it? Or rather, it's that Shrek Academy and the original Douluo Continent lack the environment to cultivate a level nine Soul Master!

Xian Lin'er straightened her posture and slammed her slender hand heavily on the laboratory table, leaving a palm print on the silver-white metal surface.

"Sharp-tongued!"

Her eyes, which were like a pool of clear water, were filled with a chilling aura as she stared sharply at Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao remained unfazed; Xian Lin'er's imposing aura seemed to have no effect on him whatsoever.

"Therefore, passion alone is not enough to become a level nine soul master. The Sun Moon Empire has many level nine soul masters, and even more level eight soul masters. Is it because those level nine soul masters are more passionate about soul tools than those level eight soul masters that they became level nine soul masters?"

Obviously not. In the original work, the eighth-level Soul Master Xuan Ziwen resolutely left the Sun Moon Empire that nurtured him for the sake of the Soul Guidance Device. Did he not love the Soul Guidance Device enough?

"Not all level nine soul masters love soul tools. Most people achieve such high levels of expertise in soul tools due to a combination of factors, including talent, living environment, training, and personal effort."

"In the end, being a Soul Master is just a profession. Not everyone in the Sun Moon Empire chooses to become a Soul Master because they love the profession. Don't they all want to become powerful Soul Masters who can crush their peers? Just like the Soul Masters who graduate from our academy."

"They want to, but they have no choice. Just like you, Dean, you also want to become a Level 9 Soul Master, but isn't there no other way?"

Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, then concluded, "To become a powerful Soul Master, passion is only a secondary condition. Cultivation, hard work, talent, and creative ideas are the more important conditions."

Xian Lin'er's heart wavered, and her fair, moon-like face remained calm for a moment.

She had to admit that what the somewhat arrogant boy said made some sense, but she still didn't want to be his teacher on his soul tool.

Although he was right, who told him to hurt her feelings time and time again? She had a temper too!

No, I have to get my revenge!

Xian Lin'er crossed her shapely legs, placing her hands flat on them. Her posture was dignified, and her demeanor was noble and aloof. Her clear, cold eyes, like those of a frozen spring, looked coldly at Huo Yuhao.

"So you think you have these qualities? Cultivation, hard work, talent, and creative ideas. What do you have? Those outlandish ideas?"

Huo Yuhao said, "Am I not currently undergoing your test, Dean? If I pass the test, I can learn from you. Although you may not be the best Soul Master in the Soul Guidance Department, you are definitely the most powerful one. If I can learn from you, this will be the best training the academy can provide."

Xian Lin'er's eyebrows shot up. What kind of talk is this? What do you mean she's the strongest Soul Master, but not the best?

You want to learn from her? Hmph, don't even think about it!

Huo Yuhao continued, "In terms of effort, we can only let our actions speak for themselves. As for ideas, no matter how far-fetched they may seem, at least we have them. And I don't think my ideas are far-fetched."

He just wanted to make some gadgets to make life easier, like cars, cameras, and long-distance communication devices. These are all entirely feasible. Some of these gadgets have already been made in the Sun Moon Empire. Only Shrek Academy and the Douluo Three Kingdoms are ignorant and backward.

"As for talent, Dean, don't resist. I'll show you my first soul skill."

Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eyes were activated, his eyes shining like jewels, a yellow soul ring pulsed, and his shared mental detection was activated.

Xian Lin'er was stunned, her blue eyes staring blankly at Huo Yuhao. She was completely immersed in the images Huo Yuhao had shared with her.

First, everything within a radius of one kilometer came into her mind, and she could see every detail with perfect clarity. Then, the detection range began to change, extending continuously in one direction: two thousand meters, three thousand meters, four thousand meters. She could even see fallen leaves four thousand meters away.

Immediately, the detection range shrank dramatically, becoming only the size of an office. During the detection, the experimental table in front of her was being analyzed layer by layer, and she could even see the soul guidance core inside.

After a long while, Xian Lin'er came to her senses, slapped her hands on the lab table, leaving two more handprints, leaned forward, and stared intently at Huo Yuhao.

"How about you become my disciple?"

We're just taking advice. Some readers said the female lead wants Xian Lin'er, so we're making arrangements for her now.

Chapter 71 Xianlin'er: Why is it so hard for me to become a teacher?

Huo Yuhao took a half step back and said, "Dean, although I want to learn about soul tools, I have no intention of becoming your apprentice."

My beautiful master is very kind, but he is not a lecherous man. How could he possibly sell himself for this?

Furthermore, he's already rejected Teacher Zhiwei, so wouldn't agreeing to Xianlin's request to take him as a disciple be unfair to Teacher Zhiwei? He truly loves Teacher Zhiwei. Who is Xianlin? We don't know her.

"why?"

Xian Lin'er took a step, her long, light blue gauze dress swaying gracefully against her shapely legs. She reached Huo Yuhao, grabbed his collar, leaned forward, and brought her face close to his. Her eyes, brimming with emotion, met his gaze directly, and she said excitedly:

"Do you even know the significance of your soul skill? Do you know its effects? If your strength increases a little more, you might even be able to directly detect and copy the blueprints for a level nine soul tool?!"

"And then?" Huo Yuhao asked calmly, his sparkling pink eyes reflecting Xian Lin'er's beautiful face. "With the blueprints, can we create a level nine soul tool?"

Of course not!

Hearing the boy's calm words, Xian Lin'er felt irritated.

If a level-nine soul tool could be made simply by having blueprints, then Shrek Academy's soul tool system would have already caught up with the Sun Moon Empire's level.

She stared at Huo Yuhao, his pink eyes shimmering with a mysterious allure.

So lovely!

She was momentarily lost in thought, and the thought involuntarily crossed her mind.

In an instant, Xian Lin'er came to her senses, immediately released Huo Yuhao's collar, turned around abruptly, and was shocked.

What a powerful martial spirit! Even she was bewitched without realizing it!

Such a promising talent should be taken on as an apprentice and properly trained; his potential must not be wasted.

"If you become my disciple, I can not only teach you how to make soul tools, but also how to cultivate martial souls. I can even help you hunt for a 100,000-year soul ring. All the resources of the entire Soul Guidance Department will be devoted to you." Xian Lin'er returned to her original seat and promised Huo Yuhao.

This was the best offer she could make; there were very few people in the entire Douluo Continent who could offer such terms, and she didn't believe this kid wouldn't be tempted.

Huo Yuhao truly felt Xian Lin'er's sincerity.
