Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

After Lin Yao finished accepting his disciples, he felt much more at ease having Di Niqiu, a mythical beast involved with the forces behind the Star Dou Great Forest, and Wang Dong'er, a pawn involved with the God King Tang, under his watchful eye.

Keep an eye on them to avoid any major problems. Although Lin Yao harbored no ill will towards the two women—Di Niqiu was genuinely pure, and Wang Dong'er was merely a pitiful person influenced by the will of the gods—he didn't want his orderly development to be disrupted. He was currently at a crucial stage of integrating Shrek Academy and laying the groundwork for the continent; any unexpected variables could disrupt his rhythm. Keeping these two potential variables close at hand allowed him to observe them closely and intervene if necessary.

During their time at Shrek Academy, Snow Empress and Ice Empress severely disciplined the upper and middle-level personnel of the academy, and they are now here to report to Lin Yao.

The Snow Empress wore a long white dress, her long, silvery-white hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall, her aura as serene and aloof as a snow lotus blooming on an iceberg. The Ice Empress, on the other hand, wore a turquoise outfit, her short, dark green hair neatly styled, her brows carrying a sharp, heroic air. Standing before Lin Yao, although their auras were restrained, the chill emanating from them, belonging to the ultimate ice, still caused the temperature in the office to drop several degrees.

The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress, both supreme ice masters possessing strength exceeding that of a Soul Douluo, along with Lin Yao's assistance, directly subdued the upper and middle ranks of Shrek Academy. Those who held positions without merit, embezzled funds, formed cliques, and suppressed dissent—before these two supreme ice masters, they were as fragile as paper. One possessed the combat experience of a 600,000-year-old soul beast, and the other nearly 400,000 years. Many who attempted to resist were powerless. Often, they were frozen into ice sculptures the moment they made a move, then shattered into dust with a flick of the Snow Empress's finger.

The academy was cleansed. Those corrupt officials who had infiltrated various departments were uprooted, and the resources they had controlled were returned to the academy. Simultaneously, many of the dark forces within Shrek City were wiped out. In this metropolis of a million people, some of the shadowy places—underground casinos, black market transactions, human trafficking, and intelligence black markets—were directly covered in ice and snow. The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress, accompanied by the robot guards crafted by Lin Yao, swept through the dens that were corrupting the city, eradicating the darkness at its roots.

Xue Di felt a great sense of accomplishment. Being able to slowly and freely mold herself within a powerful force like Shrek Academy was incredibly satisfying. Back in the far north, although she was the head of the three great kings of the far north, she spent her days facing vast snowfields and low-intelligence spirit beasts—nothing compared to the richness and diversity of the human world. Now, being able to unleash her power within a top-tier continental force like Shrek Academy gave her an unprecedented sense of fulfillment.

At the same time, Ice Emperor also reported to Lin Yao on the matter of integrating the various soul beasts in the far north.

"We've already sent people to make contact with the far north." The Ice Emperor's voice was crisp and efficient. "However, since both of them are now human bodies created by you using the power of the stars and our ultimate ice source power, it won't be as simple as it was when they were in their soul beast bodies."

She paused, then continued, "Besides the issue of strength, there's also the fact that your new soul spirit system is still lacking. Those 100,000-year-old soul beasts from the far north, while respecting our strength, are still hesitant to completely submit to a human—even you."

Lin Yao also said there was no rush: "We can take it slow. The matter in the far north can be dealt with later. Let's sort things out at Shrek Academy and on the mainland first, and then we can deal with that."

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

"Teacher, are you there?"

It was Di Niqiu's voice.

Lin Yao raised an eyebrow slightly, gesturing for the Snow Empress and Ice Empress to wait a moment, before saying, "Come in."

The door was pushed open, and Di Niqiu and Wang Dong'er walked in side by side. Both of them had a hint of confusion on their faces, and they held a scroll in their hands—the cultivation knowledge that Lin Yao had taught them yesterday.

"Teacher, there are some parts of the techniques you taught us yesterday about the fusion of soul power and spiritual power that we don't understand," Wang Dong'er said first, her voice tinged with embarrassment. "Especially the part about the resonance between the frequency of spiritual power vibration and soul power. We tried several times, but we couldn't achieve the state you described."

Di Niqiu nodded, her golden eyes shining with a thirst for knowledge: "Me too. My golden senses can detect the flow of soul power, but the frequency of my mental energy fluctuations can never be synchronized with the soul power."

Lin Yao smiled slightly at their confused expressions. He was about to explain when he noticed that the Snow Empress and Ice Empress were looking at him strangely.

The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of amusement in each other's eyes. They secretly thought to themselves: Why does it seem like their Master Lin enjoys this kind of thing? He just took on two beautiful young disciples yesterday, and today they're already eagerly coming to ask him questions. And these two disciples are both incredibly beautiful and exceptionally talented. It's hard not to think things through.

Lin Yao was naturally unaware that the Snow Empress and Ice Empress were secretly criticizing him. He thought for a moment and decided that verbal explanations might not be very effective; a demonstration would be better. So he said, "How about this, I'll take you to the outskirts of the city and demonstrate it for you. You'll understand it much faster than reading a scroll."

He turned to look at the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress: "You two should come along too. It's a good opportunity for you to see the technique of fusing soul power and spiritual power, which will also help your cultivation."

Snow Empress and Ice Empress naturally had no objections; being able to observe Lin Yao's personal demonstration was a rare learning opportunity for them.

So Lin Yao led the four of them away from the Sea God Pavilion and headed to an open area on the outskirts of Shrek City.

On the outskirts of the city, amidst verdant hills and clear waters, birdsong filled the air and flowers bloomed. On a flat meadow, Lin Yao stopped, turned to Di Niqiu and Wang Dong'er: "Watch closely. I will only use soul power and mental power in this battle, without employing any soul skills. Observe carefully and feel how soul power and mental power merge."

He took a deep breath, and his soul power and spiritual power surged within him. A faint golden light appeared on the surface of his body—a special aura produced by the fusion of soul power and spiritual power. The light was not dazzling, but it carried a profound and vast aura, as if it contained infinite mysteries.

Then, he moved.

His movements were slow, so slow that everyone could clearly see his every subtle motion. He extended his finger and gently drew a line in the air—a golden arc appeared, like a shooting star streaking across the night sky. Within that arc, there was the solidity of soul power and the agility of spiritual power, the two perfectly fused together to form a unique energy form.

Di Niqiu and Wang Dong'er watched intently, afraid of missing a single detail. Xue Di and Bing Di also observed carefully, their eyes gleaming with thoughtful light.

"Can you feel it?" Lin Yao explained while demonstrating, "Soul power is the carrier of energy, and mental power is the guide of energy. When the two resonate, the output of soul power will be more efficient, and the consumption of mental power will be lower. What you need to do is not to forcibly combine the two, but to find the resonant frequency between them and let them merge naturally."

Di Niqiu nodded thoughtfully. She closed her eyes, her Golden Dragon Martial Soul trembling slightly, her Golden Perception operating at full power. She tried adjusting the frequency of her mental energy's vibrations, making it resonate with the flow of her soul energy. Once, twice, three times—on the seventh attempt, a faint golden light suddenly appeared on the surface of her body.

She opened her eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in them: "Teacher, I think I'm getting the hang of it!"

Lin Yao nodded in satisfaction: "Very good. You try it, use this technique to launch an attack on me."

Di Niqiu didn't hold back. She took a deep breath, fused her soul power and mental power, and then threw a punch! The speed of that punch wasn't fast, but the golden light attached to her fist carried a strange penetrating power, as if it could ignore defense and directly attack the opponent's internal organs.

Lin Yao stretched out his palm and gently caught the punch. His palm trembled slightly, dissolving the golden light into nothingness.

"Not bad," he commented. "To achieve this level on your first attempt, your talent is truly remarkable. However, there are a few details you still need to pay attention to..."

He patiently pointed out several shortcomings of Di Niqiu, then turned to Wang Dong'er: "Why don't you give it a try?"

Wang Dong'er nodded, closed her eyes, and began to adjust her soul power and mental power. Her twin martial souls endowed her with extremely strong mental power talent; in terms of precise control, she was even better than Di Niqiu. Soon, golden light also appeared on the surface of her body, and it was more even and stable than Di Niqiu's.

She opened her eyes and struck out with her palm! That palm carried a supple yet powerful force, like an endless tide, wave after wave, surging towards Lin Yao.

Lin Yao also extended his palm and caught the palm strike. He nodded slightly: "Not bad, your precise control is very strong. However, your attack power is not enough; you need to strengthen your soul power output."

In the following time, Lin Yao had the two take turns attacking him, constantly adjusting and improving through practice. Di Niqiu, relying on the Golden Perception of her Golden Dragon Martial Soul, possessed an exceptional ability to learn through combat, progressing rapidly in battle and quickly mastering the rudimentary techniques of fusing soul power and spiritual power. Her rapid progress surprised both Xue Di and Bing Di, who were standing nearby.

While Wang Dong'er's progress was slightly slower, her precise control was extremely strong. Once she mastered the technique, she could fuse her soul power and mental power very stably. However, in actual combat, she was gradually suppressed by Di Niqiu.

Di Niqiu grew increasingly fierce in the fight, her golden eyes gleaming with excitement. She forced Wang Dong'er back with a punch, then defiantly raised her chin: "Hey, Wang Dong'er, we both became your disciples at the same time, and we haven't yet determined who's superior. Now, let's have a fight—whoever loses becomes the junior. How about it, dare you?"

Wang Dong'er's face darkened at her words. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists: "Fine, let's fight! Who's afraid of who!"

She took a deep breath, her soul power surging wildly within her. Unwilling to be defeated, she intended to unleash the combined power of the Goddess of Light Butterfly and the Clear Sky Hammer to fight again with all her might. Behind her, the pair of magnificent butterfly wings slowly unfolded, while in her right hand, the black Clear Sky Hammer was also gathering strength.

Just as the two were about to collide again, a figure suddenly appeared between them.

Lin Yao.

He reached out and pressed down on their shoulders, his voice tinged with helplessness: "Alright, that's enough."

He looked at Di Niqiu, his eyes carrying a hint of warning: "Healthy competition is fine, but don't resort to such desperate fighting all the time. You are fellow disciples now, not mortal enemies."

He then looked at Wang Dong'er, his tone softening slightly: "As for who will be the eldest disciple—how about this, whoever breaks through to Soul Saint first will be the eldest sister. What do you say?"

Di Niqiu and Wang Dong'er exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with a competitive spark.

"Okay! It's a deal!" they both said in unison.

Lin Yao shook his head, looking at the two girls' determined eyes, feeling somewhat helpless. He wondered if taking them both on as disciples at once was a mistake. These two girls were both incredibly competitive and unwilling to admit defeat. He feared he would have to mediate their disputes frequently in the future.

Meanwhile, Xue Di and Bing Di, who had been observing the scene unfold, were thoroughly enjoying themselves. Looking at the two young girls' vibrant energy, they seemed to see a reflection of their younger selves. Xue Di's lips curled into a slight smile, while Bing Di couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Afterwards, Lin Yao affirmed Di Niqiu and Wang Dong'er's talent for cultivation and set the schedule for future lessons—every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday morning, at the top floor of the Sea God Pavilion. Then, he led the four of them back to Sea God Island.

As night falls, the lights are on.

Lin Yao returned from a small gathering with friends, having gained quite a bit. Tang Ya gifted him a rare spiritual herb—a family heirloom from her Tang Clan, said to nourish meridians and enhance soul power affinity. Ning Tian, ​​on the other hand, presented him with a cultivation manual for Sword Douluo—a precious book held by the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, recording some of Sword Douluo Chen Xin's cultivation insights and sword technique understanding.

Lin Yao accepted the gift, feeling a pang of emotion. These favors were the result of his accumulation over the years. Although he no longer needed these things, he still appreciated the sentiment.

Afterwards, Lin Yao went to Ling Luochen's residence.

Ling Luochen is a genius student in Shrek Academy's inner court, possessing an ice elemental martial soul and outstanding talent. She met Lin Yao during the freshman assessment and maintained a close relationship ever since. After Lin Yao became the head of the Sea God Pavilion, Ling Luochen naturally became one of his closest confidantes.
