Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 8 Sun and Moon, the Deathly Silent Test Site

More than twenty days later, in the Ming capital of the Sun and Moon Empire.

"Brother Lin Dong, this is your reward for protecting me along the way, three gold soul coins. We'll be going now. With your talent, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy is a good place."

Lin Dong accepted the gold soul coins from the caravan manager and replied with a light laugh, "Thank you for your care along the way, Manager Liang. We'll meet again someday."

The middle-aged man, known as Manager Liang, smiled kindly at Lin Dong. He had only thought the boy was an orphan with a tragic fate, which was why he kindly allowed him to come to Sun and Moon with the caravan.

Until this seemingly harmless boy, after joining the caravan for only a few days, punched a guard with the strength of a Great Soul Master flying away without a word.

Manager Liang then developed a new impression of Lin Dong and hired him to replace the guard for two gold soul coins.

After all, the strongest guard in his caravan was only a Soul Master.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Manager Liang, Lin Dong parted ways with him temporarily and found a cheap hotel nearby.

Three days later, Lin Dong had a basic understanding of the city's situation. After making some basic preparations, he prepared to go to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy that the steward had mentioned.

After understanding the academy's admission requirements, Lin Dong was certain that he would receive decent treatment there.

After a quick tidy-up on the morning of the fourth day, Lin Dong left the hotel and headed to the recruitment site of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Looking at the long line, Lin Dong couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. What kind of academy was this? It was even more lively than the Dao Sect's recruitment event.

"Hehe, Lin Dong, are you sure this academy can actually help a freak like you?"

Hearing Tianmeng's somewhat gloating voice, Lin Dong said helplessly:

"In any case, this place shouldn't be as dangerous as that forest, and from what I've observed, the people here don't seem to have such fiery tempers. I suppose this academy shouldn't be life-threatening."

After hearing this, Tianmeng teased in a flippant tone:

"You think everyone is like you? That unlucky guy will probably find it hard to improve his cultivation for the rest of his life."

Lin Dong knew who he was talking about, and then smiled faintly:

"He barged into my tent without my permission. If I were cultivating, I would have suffered a serious qi deviation, which is no joke. I was already being lenient by not killing him."

Tianmeng chuckled and said, "That makes sense. You can wait in line. Regardless of whether this academy will help you or not, at least it will allow you to cultivate steadily to level 20. I also have a surprise for you."

Lin Dong asked curiously, "What surprise?"

"Hehe, it's no use for you to know now. I'll tell you when you reach level 20."

Hearing Tianmeng's cheeky reply, Lin Dong gritted his teeth: "You win!"

It was rare to see Lin Dong suffer a setback, so Tianmeng chuckled a few times and then fell silent.

Bone age: 12 years old, qualified.

"Soul Power, Level 12, Qualified"

Before Lin Dong could speak, the group had already unknowingly moved to his side.

After glancing at the mysterious metal detector, Lin Dong withdrew his somewhat curious gaze and quietly operated it according to the old man's instructions.

"Bone age, 11 years old, qualified."

"Soul Power, Level 16, Excellent"

The old man in charge of the test glanced at the data displayed on the metal instrument, and a hint of surprise appeared in his cloudy eyes.

This kid's cultivation level has actually reached the admission standard for Shrek Academy!

Then, looking at Lin Dong with a kind smile, he said:

"Little one, your talent has reached the standard of an excellent student. I will send someone to take you for a detailed test, is that alright?"

Lin Dong calmly nodded and hummed in agreement. Following the waiter the old man had mentioned, he walked into a path covered with a red carpet amidst the envious gazes of the crowd.

The old man watched Lin Dong's departing figure, a hint of undisguised admiration flashing in his eyes:

To be able to hide one's emotions so well at such a young age, I might just find an extraordinary treasure for the academy this time.

Because of the emergence of Lin Dong, a promising talent, the old man's attitude towards the later testers improved considerably.

Lin Dong followed the waiter to a corridor. Looking at the glittering decorations around him, Lin Dong couldn't help but marvel at the place's splendor.

Led respectfully by a waiter, Lin Dong entered a testing room. Seeing the various instruments displayed inside, Tian Meng exclaimed in surprise:

"These instruments look pretty good. Do you think they'll detect your mysterious talisman?"

Lin Dong chuckled to himself, "Unless I release it voluntarily, there's absolutely no way it will be discovered."

Tianmeng gave an "oh," and the middle-aged man in charge of the test looked at him with a smile, pointing to a two-and-a-half-meter-tall instrument and saying:

"Hehe, little guy, hand over the metal on your body first, so as not to affect the test results. A beam of light will sweep over you in a moment, but don't worry, it won't cause you any harm."

Lin Dong nodded, handed the White Tiger Dagger to the attendant beside him, and stood facing the crystal pillar of the instrument.

"Relax, I'm about to begin."

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

As soon as he finished speaking, a dense surge of soul power suddenly emanated from his body, and a shimmering white halo could be clearly seen on his arm.

Immediately afterwards, a fan-shaped white light shone from the top of the instrument and slowly descended towards Lin Dong.

The middle-aged man looked at Lin Dong, whose expression had not changed at all, and couldn't help but nod.

This kid is a freshman who just enrolled, but his extremely calm attitude alone is already far superior to many students who have come for the second time.

The teacher who was recording the data had already read it out:

"Physical strength: Level 35; Physical resilience: Level 32; Soul power: Level 16!"

At this point, the teacher in charge of taking notes suddenly raised his voice.

The middle-aged man in charge of operating the equipment had his initial surprise turn into utter shock. This was the Soul Master Academy!

This physical strength, which is nearly twenty levels higher than his soul power, is probably unmatched in the entire academy!

Feeling a little uneasy under the middle-aged man's gaze, Lin Dong asked calmly, "Is that alright? What's next?"

The middle-aged man, completely oblivious to Lin Dong's tone, said with a beaming smile:

"Hehe, that's enough, that's enough. But could you show us your martial spirit and spirit skills?"

Lin Dong nodded after hearing this. Judging from the other party's attitude, the stronger his talent was, the more attention he would receive from the other party.

Then, under the expectant gaze of the middle-aged man, Lin Dong slowly closed his eyes, and after a moment, a gray light appeared in his deep eyes.

Two of the four soul skills provided by Tianmeng are Spirit Sharing and Spirit Detection, which are activated simultaneously.

The scene within a radius of one hundred meters was instantly projected into the middle-aged man's mind with extreme clarity.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then his face, which had been full of surprise and anticipation, instantly turned to deep astonishment. His burning gaze was fixed on Lin Dong, and he stood there dumbfounded, unable to utter a single word...
