I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Back at the exam site, Xu Xingyu had finished making the outer shell of the soul tool she was making, only lacking the most crucial core magic array.

With only a quarter of an hour remaining, Qian Duoduo, who had been watching from the sidelines, was unsure whether Xu Xingyu could complete the soul tool he wanted to make before time ran out.

From Qian Duoduo's perspective, Xu Xingyu's creation was unsurprisingly a gauntlet-type close-range soul tool, which, combined with Xingyin's toughness and sturdiness, should make it extremely powerful offensively.

According to Qian Duoduo's estimate, once a soul tool is created, it should have at least the strength of a level four soul tool, which is a very good achievement for a student of Xu Xingyu's age.

However, that was assuming it was successfully completed. It would be extremely difficult to draw all the core magic arrays in just a quarter of an hour.

However, Xu Xingyu quickly finished inscribing most of the core magic circle with her super fast hand speed, which made Qian Duoduo twitch. Wasn't the little guy afraid of making a mistake by inscribing it so fast?

As time was running out, Xu Xingyu finished inscribing the core magic array and began assembling the outer shell of her soul tool. Finally, just as the clock struck, Xu Xingyu successfully completed her soul tool.

Qian Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Xu Xingyu finish his soul tool. The tense atmosphere just now had made him break out in a cold sweat.

After calming herself down, Qian Duoduo began to test the gauntlet-shaped soul tool made by Xu Xingyu.

After further observation, Qian Duoduo couldn't figure out anything, except that the gauntlet was very tough and sharp, and could also provide a certain boost to the Soul Master.

From this perspective, this gauntlet is a powerful close-range soul tool, but if that's all there is to it, is it really necessary to use that spirit alloy to create this soul tool?

Xu Xingyu did not provide much explanation for this, only saying that it was a close-range soul tool that could be used by Soul King level experts.

He couldn't reveal any more details, as it was a secret exclusive to the Spirit Pagoda. He couldn't tell Qian Duoduo unless his teacher, the Silver Dragon Douluo Gu Yuena, was willing.

Therefore, Qian Duoduo had no choice but to give up his idea of ​​getting to the bottom of things and officially announced that Xu Xingyu could minor in the Soul Guidance Department during her first year, and stated that their Soul Guidance Department would welcome Xu Xingyu to join at any time.

However, Xu Xingyu mainly chose the Martial Soul system because his own knowledge of Soul Guidance had long exceeded what Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance system could teach.

Choosing to minor in this field was purely to prevent myself from forgetting how to create soul tools if I didn't do it for too long.

However, just as Xu Xingyu was about to leave the examination room, the teacher in the next examination room found Qian Duoduo and began to report Xu Yanxue's exam results.

Like Xu Xingyu, Xu Yanxue also passed her exam and was qualified to minor in the Soul Guidance Department in her first year.

However, her work was so outstanding that the examiners wanted to see if they could discuss with the vice dean about directly admitting this freshman into the Soul Guidance Department and giving her a core disciple spot.

It turns out that the soul tool Xu Yanxue made was a level three soul tool battery, a type of soul tool that is very common in the Spirit Pagoda.

Although the production process was quite difficult, it wasn't a big deal for Xu Yanxue.

The examiners' surprise wasn't due to the soul tool's ability to store soul power. In this era, they also had their own soul tools for storing soul power, commonly known as "baby bottles."

However, this level-three soul guide battery is different from the milk bottle. Not only is it smaller in size, but it also stores more soul power than the level-four milk bottle.

What's most unbelievable is that this battery has a sealing function, so this soul guide battery won't leak the soul power stored inside like a baby bottle.

This result greatly surprised Qian Duoduo. He originally thought that Xu Xingyu was a natural genius of the Soul Guidance System, but who knew that his sister named Xu Yanxue was no less talented than him.

This also changed Qian Duoduo's original idea of ​​only wanting to win over Xu Xingyu into wanting to bind both Xu Xingyu and Xu Yanxue to the Soul Guidance Department at the same time. As long as they can do this, the status of their Soul Guidance Department in Shrek will surely be bright!

After completing the assessment, Xu Xingyu and Xu Yanxue left the Soul Guidance Department building together and headed towards their dormitory.

On their way back, the two began to discuss their respective assessments.

"Brother Xingyu, is it really okay for us to be so high-profile in this exam?"

"You should know that the technology we displayed there was neither the technology of the Sun and Moon nor technology that had ever been seen by the original three great empires."

"Is it really okay to show it off so easily?"

Seeing Xu Yanxue looking at her with the curious eyes of a child, Xu Xingyu couldn't help but chuckle.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yanxue puffed out her cheeks and looked at Xu Xingyu with dissatisfaction.

They were worried about whether their own organization's technology would be leaked! What's so funny about that!

"It's alright, it's alright." Xu Xingyu realized that she had been somewhat rude, so she began to change the subject and explain why she had to reveal these things.

"Although I personally don't like Shrek Academy's teaching philosophy, Shrek's influence in the three former empires is too great now."

"Therefore, at this stage, we still need to leverage Shrek Academy's reputation to promote our Spirit Tower. In this process, we have to appropriately reveal something that can attract them, otherwise the bait won't be taken."

"I see!" At this moment, Xu Yanxue finally understood Xu Xingyu's plan.

To put it bluntly, it's about building a good relationship with Shrek Academy by demonstrating one's own value, and in the process, changing Shrek's outdated attitude towards spirits.

As long as Shrek Academy claims in the future that the Soul Technique is the correct method of cultivation.

Then their expansion of the Spirit Pagoda will not be hindered, and the number of Soul Masters buying Soul Spirits will increase significantly.

The biggest problem with the Spirit Pagoda at this stage is that those who buy spirits are mostly nobles. Commoner-level spirit masters rarely buy spirits.

However, there's nothing that can be done about this, since the cost of creating spirits is extremely high, and not everyone can afford to buy them.

It's quite normal for poor people to not be able to buy spirits, since money isn't something everyone can afford.

To address this issue, Xu Xingyu specifically established a scholarship-like system within the Spirit Bond Tower. As long as a Soul Master's talent is high enough, they can fuse with a Soul Spirit without paying.

Of course, it would be even better if those people joined the Spirit Tower as a result. After all, the more staff the better.

After explaining her plans to Xu Yanxue, they arrived at their dormitory building. After exchanging pleasantries, Xu Xingyu and Xu Yanxue went back to their rooms.

However, the moment Xu Xingyu returned, he was greeted by Wang Dong'er, who was already exhausted.
