Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor.

Chapter 251 Past

After leaving the Xishui Alliance, Ye Qing went to a secluded alley, changed his clothes, and returned to his original appearance.

For three whole years, he maintained the appearance of the Nightmare Douluo, studying the core magic array day and night, wanting to create the Soul Armor as soon as possible so that he could have a powerful enough divine weapon in the future.

This is something that must be done, not only because it concerns his combat power after he becomes a god, but also because of those two good dogs from the Haotian Sect who might stand in his way.

After Tang San resurrected the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, although Tang San suppressed their strength to level 99 and 98 respectively due to the rules of the God Realm, who says they won't resort to desperate measures?

Limit Douluo and God are two completely different concepts. Even a quasi-god is weak and vulnerable in front of a God.

Before he became a god, the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Ape were always a threat that could not be ignored.

Otherwise, Ye Qing wouldn't have spent three years creating the Soul Armor just to capture this hard-won inspiration.

Of course, the development progress is also encouraging.

If we follow the battle armor system of ten thousand years later, the spirit forging metal that Electrolux deduced is already enough to make two-word battle armor. In addition, with Ye Qing and Electrolux's secondary development, it has the possibility of communicating with the soul bone. The power of the soul armor will be more than twice as strong as the two-word battle armor.

As for the classification of Soul Armor levels...

Ye Qing hadn't figured it out yet, and for now, he planned to use four levels—Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow—to label them. The idea that one had to reach a certain level before being able to use a title with a certain number of characters to name their battle armor was actually quite abstract to Ye Qing.

A level is a level, and a name is a name. Does adding or subtracting a word from the name of a battle armor really affect its prestige or strength?

Of course, he hasn't decided on the name for his future soul armor yet. It will most likely be named Holy Evil Emperor Armor (feel free to leave a comment if you have any good suggestions, and the author will consider them). But since nothing is certain yet, he's not in a hurry.

There's no rush to forge your own soul armor.

After three years of painstaking research, he was actually quite tired, not physically, but mentally. Ye Qing felt like a dog author who had been dragged to the basement by readers and forced to write for three years, and he was in a daze.

This state is clearly not conducive to the forging of Soul Armor.

Bathed in sunlight once again with his original appearance, Ye Qing even felt as if he had been released from prison, as if he had been through another world.

"Let's relax for a bit. Let's think about the time. It's been a full four years since the last competition ended, in about a month. I wonder what has happened in these four years." Ye Qing stretched.

Mu En has given up. Without his leadership, would Shrek Academy still be going to have any exchange student program with Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy?

Ye Qing felt this was a serious problem.

In the entire Shrek Academy, only Moon truly saw the future of soul tools.

Despite being the dean and vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department, Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo's development of Soul Guidance Devices may not necessarily stem from their vision of its future.

One reason is naturally to prove themselves, believing that we Shrek people are no less capable than others. If Mingde Hall can research soul tools, then Shrek can certainly do the same.

This is more like an arms race during the Cold War, and has nothing to do with how far-sighted they are.

If Xianlin'er and Qian Duoduo had a long-term vision, how could they have come up with such a nonsensical Extreme Individual Soldier Plan? What does this have to do with the future of soul tools?

To put it bluntly, it's just that arms dealers want to create a powerful enough weapon.

The second reason is even simpler: because they belong to the Soul Guidance Department, they want to develop the Soul Guidance Department, which is in the interest of their group, so they naturally need to fight for it.

Putting aside these two reasons, they may not necessarily like or love soul tools that much; they are just developing for the sake of development. Without Mu En's initiative, they wouldn't have had the brains to think of organizing an exchange student program with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

This can be seen from the fact that Ye Qing lived in Mingdu for three years without hearing any rumors.

This plan was absolutely never brought up.

Ye Qing was just focused on researching the Soul Armor; he wasn't in seclusion. Besides, Huo Yuhao was a troublemaker in the original story, so it was impossible for him not to cause some big news after arriving in Mingdu.

But he didn't hear a word of it.

Excluding the exchange student program, there haven't been any other major events during these five years.

The biggest event was the fall of Moon, but the Moon in this world had already been healed by him, and his old life could last for another ten years or so. It was impossible for him to die so hastily.

As for the rest... I'll inquire about it later.

Ye Qing sensed that his soul power had reached a bottleneck and prepared to get a soul ring to break through.

Three years ago, he had a soul power of level 76. It was impossible for him not to have improved his level at all three years later. Even though the quality of his soul power was comparable to that of a Super Douluo, and even though he had been obsessed with soul armor and hadn't cultivated much in the past three years, he still reached level 80 a few months ago.

This is roughly the passive effect of the Soul Core. Even without cultivation, the Soul Core can automatically gather the Yuan Power of Heaven and Earth to enhance Ye Qing's cultivation level.

"Let's eat before we break through."

……

Just as Ye Qing had guessed, the exchange student program was indeed not initiated.

In the original story, it was Mu En and Jing Hongchen who facilitated the exchange student program.

But now that Mu En has retired and is giving up, he thinks that with his prized disciple Ye Qing going to the Sun Moon Empire, the exchange program is irrelevant. He doesn't need to push it forward; Ye Qing is already in Mingdu learning about soul tools.

Mu En wasn't worried that Ye Qing wouldn't learn; smart people can thrive anywhere, and he had a lot of confidence in Ye Qing.

Mu En could never have imagined that Ye Qing would not only thrive in the community, but also replace Xuan Zi as the Supreme Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult, while secretly exploiting the Holy Spirit Cult and developing overpowered equipment for the third playthrough.

Jing Hongchen has even less reason to go to Shrek Academy.

In the original story, the Sword of Judgment was stolen by Xuanzi, which is why he tried to get it back. In this world, Xiao Hongchen personally lost the Sword of Judgment to Ye Qing, so even if he has a thick skin, he can't bring himself to ask Shrek Academy for it.

He even had to praise Xiao Hongchen for doing a good job.

As a cunning old fox, Jing Hongchen could certainly see that Xiao Hongchen was a bit dim-witted, but this time he did a really good job. He used a sword of judgment to establish Xiao Hongchen's image of brightness and benevolence, which was well worth it.

Compared to Xiao Hongchen's growth, a sword of judgment is naturally not that important in Jing Hongchen's eyes.

If we lose, we lose; at worst, we can just make another one.
