Douluo Continent Chat Group: Building My Academy

"Dean of Tianxing Academy, Flander, Soul Saint of the Wind Eagle Martial Soul, hello child, what's your name?"

Flander landed slowly with lightning speed, then gently put the dazed Oscar down.

Looking at the child in front of him who was almost naked and looked like a hairy monkey, Flander chuckled inwardly.

Looks like I've managed to snag this bargain.

"Me? Me, my name is Ouyang Sun. Soul, does the Soul Master need me for something?"

Ouyang Sun is an original character created for the Douluo Continent comics. He is also a tragic character, and his character design may have been inspired by the disabled leopard from Kung Fu Panda.

He was taken in as a disciple by the Seven Sons of Seagod Island and was expected to grow up. His masters wanted him to become the Nine-Star Holy Son, the successor of Seagod Island, and the next High Priest.

Poseidon did not choose him, and the huge gap drove him mad, eventually sealing him away until Tang San and his group arrived and he was released.

Ouyang Sun's life was quite utilitarian, and his ultimate cause of death was to shield Tang San from a knife. His character was somewhat fleshed out, but he was also dispensable.

As for why this character was created, it is likely related to a common saying—if there's a monkey, choose the monkey.

If Flander remembers correctly, one of Ouyang Sun's martial souls is based on Sun Wukong, or even can be said to be Sun Wukong himself.

The monkey's popularity needs no introduction; everyone wants to piggyback on its fame.

"There's something I need to take care of."

Flander looked around and saw a lone fruit tree where Ouyang Sun was sitting, probably making a living from it.

His reason for approaching them was simple: there were unrelated, wild geniuses out there, so he naturally wanted to give them a try.

Do you want to become a Soul Master?

One sentence left the alert Ouyang Sun momentarily stunned, his words muttering to himself.

"Hun, soul master?"

"Yes, you may have some doubts, but I have some private abilities that allow me to vaguely sense the fluctuations of other people's soul power."

You are a genius. I was drawn here by the fluctuations of your soul power. You also heard my name just now, didn't you? I am the principal of an academy.

My job is to find all kinds of geniuses, take them on as my disciples, and help them grow successfully.

Ouyang Sun was stunned. He had never thought of these things. He was abandoned by his parents and forced to wander in the deep mountains because of his birth abnormality and excessively fast hair growth.

Up until now, all he's thought about is living a good life and finding himself a place to stay. Becoming a legendary Soul Master is something he wouldn't even dare to dream of.

At this moment, Oscar regained some consciousness and tried to open his eyes to look at the person opposite him, but was startled by Ouyang Sun's appearance, and two words immediately came out of his mouth.

"monkey!?"

"I'm not a monkey, I'm a human being!"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Sun immediately recalled those unpleasant past events and instinctively refuted them.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Oscar realized the monkey could talk, and then he understood it was a person. He recalled how he had been given a nickname because of his excessive hair growth, and felt ashamed.

"you……"

Ouyang Sun hadn't expected anyone to apologize, and for a moment he didn't know how to forgive them.

Flander then spoke up at the opportune moment, pulling Oscar in front of Ouyang Sun and saying with a smile:

"This is Oscar, my current student. You two might have some things in common."

Oscar scratched his head and looked at Ouyang Sun, feeling a sense of empathy for him.

Are you an orphan too?

"No, I was abandoned here by my parents."

"Then you're a little worse off than me. I was abandoned before I even met my parents."

The two children began to talk to each other in a way that would move anyone to tears, and for a moment they even felt a sense of kinship.

"You mean, if I follow this Soul Master, I can have enough to eat and even sleep in a bed!?"

"Of course, after meeting the teacher, I have never been cold or hungry."

Oscar responded proudly, drawing admiring glances from Ouyang Sun.

Based on their previous conversation, Ouyang Sun was able to deduce that Oscar had definitely been a homeless person, and there were some details that he couldn't have described without experiencing them firsthand.

That being the case...

Ouyang Sun looked timidly at Flander.

"I can become a Soul Master too?"

"Of course." Flander stepped forward and extended his hand to Ouyang Sun. "I came here specifically for you."

"teacher."

Ouyang Sun then stopped hesitating.

Flanders smiled inwardly. Excellent, another peerless genius has been acquired.

Meanwhile, in Sea Spear City on Seagod Island, Sea Spear Douluo, who was preparing to go on a long trip, suddenly froze. For some reason, he felt as if he had lost something.

……

Six semi-circular crystals appeared on the ground, arranged in the shape of a six-pointed star, and the Martial Soul Awakening Ceremony began.

As Ouyang Sun entered, a warm light instantly engulfed him, and golden light merged into his body, causing his soul imprint to surge.

hum...

Raising his hand, Ouyang Sun stared blankly at the newly added circular pattern, in which he could vaguely make out a monkey swaggering around.

What is this?

"Try summoning your martial soul. If it's a weapon martial soul, it can take form. If it's a beast martial soul, it can also be attached to you."

Of course, there are a few exceptions, such as when you awaken your original martial soul, or even some martial souls that cannot manifest without absorbing soul rings.

Like Oscar's God of Food martial soul, it is almost useless before obtaining a spirit ring.

"Um."

Ouyang Sun obediently nodded, then focused his attention on his martial spirit and summoned...

A light shone, and the soul imprint on Ouyang Sun's hand suddenly appeared in the air. Then, it seemed as if something was about to emerge from the soul imprint.

"grumble!"

A gray-furred monkey jumped out, spun around on the ground a few times, then looked at Ouyang Sun and happily jumped over.

"Chirp chirp!"

Ouyang Sun subconsciously took it, then looked at the little monkey with a blank expression.

Wasn't it a weapon spirit summoned and a beast spirit possessed? Then what's going on here, a beast spirit summoned?

"It really is a monkey!"

Oscar, who was watching from the side, was also incredulous and turned to look at Flander.

"Teacher, what's going on?"

"A beast spirit appearing independently? I've heard of such a case before. If I remember correctly, this should be a case of spirit mutation."

Flander said thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, the original plot never really explained what Ouyang Sun's martial soul was. After all, he was an original character, and more of a tool, so he was killed off after the plot was over."

Compared to another character who can summon a beast spirit independently, Ouyang Sun's situation is clearly a case of spirit mutation.

"Soul mutation can be good or bad, and your situation may not necessarily be bad, Xiao Sun."

"Do you feel something for this little monkey? Can you integrate its power into your body?"

"I...I'll try, teacher."

Ouyang Sun didn't understand what was going on, but at this moment he could only choose to believe it. He reached out and touched the smiling little gray monkey, and Ouyang Sun exerted his inner strength.

We must succeed!

hum!

Another flash of light appeared, and the little gray monkey on Ouyang Sun's body immediately transformed into light, surging into him and converting into power.

When Ouyang Sun reappeared, he was exactly like a monkey, and his originally pale yellow fur had turned completely black and gray.

Unlike his previous thin physique, Ouyang Sun now had large, muscular muscles.

Oscar watched in disbelief, wondering how he could transform!

"Little Sun, how are you feeling?"

"I feel so much power inside me, teacher!"

Ouyang Sun clenched his fist, feeling better than ever before!

"Then let's test the soul power again."

Upon receiving the crystal ball, Ouyang Sun mobilized his soul power, and in the next instant, a light that was in no way inferior to Oscar's brilliance appeared.
