In an instant, many frustrated commoner Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent had their eyes turn red with envy upon seeing this recruitment notice.

Salary is secondary; the main benefits are in acquiring spirit rings and providing training guidance.

Knowledge itself is a major weakness for ordinary Soul Masters. The knowledge taught in schools is only a very superficial foundation. When they truly reach the later stages of cultivation, they will fall into the pain of not knowing how to continue, and then be stuck at that level for life.

Ye Wen's recruitment notice not only rounded up all the skilled commoner soul masters themselves, but also their descendants.

All ordinary soul masters who meet the requirements are now flocking to Ye Wen's Tianxing Advanced Academy to apply for jobs, because they know that this may be their only chance to turn their lives around.

There are advanced soul master academies on the mainland, but they have many rules and regulations. The most basic ones are related to nobles and wealthy merchants, while others are related to sects and families.

In general, the Advanced Soul Master Academy is less a school and more a place for these powerful forces to select talents who meet their needs.

To gain their preferential treatment in terms of resources, one must join them and be subject to various restrictions. If one is suppressed within the organization, the situation becomes even worse, as one cannot resign or leave, essentially becoming a slave.

For some free-spirited and proud commoner soul masters, this was worse than death, so they wandered around the continent.

Ye Wen's academy recruitment was different. It didn't impose many restrictions on the Soul Masters themselves, and the benefits were excellent. In particular, the advanced life-type simulated environment they mentioned was a universal training environment that made their hearts flutter. They couldn't remember the last time they had trained in a simulated environment.

Suddenly, undercurrents were stirring.

As for the other admissions announcements, they did not attract much attention.

[This announcement is valid indefinitely. Those interested may visit Tianxing Advanced Soul Master Academy.]

Although the academy recruits two more types of students than a regular Soul Master academy, it does not have a significant impact on their studies.

Meanwhile, the two great empires and their vassal kingdoms and principalities all sprang into action, searching for soul masters within their borders who had not yet acquired soul rings and possessed Blue Silver Grass or Needle Soul Souls to learn from.

Because the prospects for these two martial souls are not far off, once a soul ring slot is wasted, it is basically equivalent to being useless. Ye Wen has specific requirements for the first two soul rings of a medical soul master.

Although there are quite a few commoners who awaken this kind of martial soul, very few of them possess soul power.

The probability of Blue Silver Grass awakening a martial soul is about 3%, while the Needle martial soul is slightly better, but according to surveys, it's only about 5%, and these are still ordinary-level martial souls.

In the end, a total of 525 such Soul Masters were collected across the entire Douluo Continent, including 311 with Blue Silver Grass and 214 with Needle Martial Souls. More awakened children will come in the future.

When they brought the people over, Ye Wen had already transplanted the Blue Silver Forest that originally belonged to Tianxing Junior Academy. After all, there were only a hundred trees, and it was close to the sea, so the moisture was greater and more suitable for the growth of plant soul beasts.

There are many century-old Blue Silver Vine trees, which makes things a bit more complicated.

They also took the school monument of Tianxing Academy, after all, it was an item from the academy they originally founded.

As for the original Tianxing Junior Academy, Ye Wen transformed it into a villa, so that he could use it as a place to stay for a while whenever he wanted to take a vacation.

Due to the establishment of Tianxing Advanced Academy, Ye Wen's entire family had to move, so the original Tianxing Medical Clinic was shut down.

However, the experiments on the special medicine were already very successful. For ordinary illnesses, Ye Wen handed over the sales rights of these medicines to his former underling, Xiao Lie.

He also instructed Xiao Lie to make certain changes to the planting practices of the farmers around Nottingham City.

After all, the future consumption of medicinal herbs across the entire continent will be staggering. Cultivating medicinal herbs would undoubtedly be the best way to enrich this region. Besides, Notting City isn't a major grain-producing area; they can simply use gold coins to offset taxes later.

Furthermore, Ye Wen handed over detailed planting techniques to Xiao Lie and promised to purchase the medicinal herbs he grew according to market prices.

As for the position of village chief of Holy Soul Village, it was given to a young man named Jack who possessed the Carrot Martial Soul.

The people of Holy Soul Village originally wanted to change the village's name to Ye Wen Village or Master Village. After all, in the original story, because Tang San became the Sea God, they even changed their village name to Sea God Village, although it didn't really make a difference.

Because Ye Wen's current status on the continent is far greater than that of a mere Soul Saint.

After all, the continent doesn't lack a Soul Saint; what it lacks is a true theoretical master like Ye Wen, someone who can lead the entire Soul Master world to progress.

Ye Wen refused, finding the two names not only unpleasant to hear but also extremely shameful. In the end, he decided to return to his roots and bestowed the name "Tianxing" upon Shenghun Village, thus renaming it Tianxing Village.

Although it was the first time Ye Wen had managed so many students, his powerful cultivation allowed him to arrange things in an orderly manner.

Tianxing Advanced Academy was newly established and had many miscellaneous tasks to attend to.

However, this batch of students all have a certain foundation, so there's no need to teach them things like writing.

What these new students need most right now is soul power cultivation, so Ye Wen directly sent them all to the Blue Silver Forest to cultivate.

These children from humble backgrounds had never seen such a good cultivation environment before, and they all began to cultivate day and night as if they didn't care about their lives.

If Ye Wen hadn't set restrictions and required them to train their bodies, these guys would probably have taken root here permanently.

The existence of this artificial Blue Silver Forest was also exposed to all the forces on the continent, and they learned for the first time that the gathering of Blue Silver Grass Soul Beasts had such a wonderful use.

So this is what Ye Wen called the advanced life-like mimicry cultivation environment.
