Douluo Continent II: Senior Sister, Please Help Me Cultivate

Chapter 207 Meeting

Several days ago, when Chen Feng defeated the Star Luo Royal Academy, Elder Mu convened a meeting of the Sea God Pavilion at Shrek Academy.

Nine people sat around an oval table; they were all elders of Shrek Academy.

Elder Mu said calmly, "I predict that Shrek Academy will be the champion again in this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, but that's not what I want to talk about at this meeting."

Upon hearing Elder Mu's words, the surrounding elders were all bewildered, thinking to themselves, "Has something major happened recently? Elder Mu is actually calling a meeting, and I haven't heard a thing about it?"

Master Mu said, "I personally watched the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament at the competition venue."

Nowadays, the technology of soul tools is becoming more and more advanced, and their power is quite astonishing.

If it weren't for Chen Feng and Xiao Tao, both Soul Saint level warriors, given the usual level of teams sent by Shrek Academy, we would undoubtedly have lost this competition.

Even so, during the match against Star Luo Royal Academy... Xiao Tao also suffered from the effects of the soul tool.

Shrek Academy must change now, or it will surely be eliminated by the times!

After hearing Elder Mu finish speaking, most of the elders of the Sea God Pavilion looked at each other in shock.

Only Old Master Song (Xian Lin'er's mother), Xian Lin'er, and Qian Duoduo showed joy on their faces.

Elder Mu continued, "Times are progressing, the world is developing, and the era of soul tools has arrived."

I predict that in the future, powerful Soul Masters paired with powerful Soul Tools will be the dominant theme of the world.

Therefore, Shrek Academy must vigorously develop soul tools! Not only that, but we must also change our past arrogant behavior of looking down on soul tools and refusing to use them.

Old Master Mu said to Xian Lin'er, "Lin'er."

"Teacher! I'm here!" Xian Lin'er stood up respectfully, her eyes revealing excitement.

Elder Mu said, "After this meeting, make at least one flying soul tool and one defensive soul tool tailored to each inner court disciple!"

Furthermore, the seventh and eighth grade students in the inner academy will have an extra soul tool course every week. They won't be taught how to make soul tools; they'll only be taught how to use and understand them.

"Yes." Upon hearing Elder Mu's words, Xian Lin'er's face immediately lit up with joy, but Yan Shaozhe, who was sitting opposite her, frowned.

The relationship between the Martial Soul System and the Soul Guidance System has never been good. They have always been competing for Shrek Academy's resources and talented students.

After all, there are only so many outstanding students, so they're bound to be in high demand.

Traditional spirit masters have always held an absolute advantage, far surpassing the newly created spirit guidance system in strength.

The atmosphere at Shrek Academy is traditional, focusing on cultivating one's own martial soul; it looks down on students who use "heretical" soul tools and rely on external forces.

The students of the Inner Academy's Martial Soul Department also inherited the pride of traditional Soul Masters, focusing on cultivating their own Martial Souls without relying on external tools. They believed that relying on external objects would make them weaker and hinder their future progress, so they all chose not to use Soul Tools.

"Teacher, isn't this too much of a shock to the students in the Martial Soul Department? Shouldn't we reconsider?" Yan Shaozhe asked tentatively.

Elder Mu looked at Yan Shaozhe, opened his droopy eyelids, his golden eyes shone brightly, and said in a slightly stern voice: "What are you considering? My mind is made up. If there really is someone who cultivates to the point that their brain doesn't work, they are not worthy of studying in the inner academy. Using a soul tool is just hindering their own progress."

That's too narrow-minded. If you have strong personal abilities, using a soul tool will only amplify those strengths!

If a soul master worries that even using a soul tool will affect them and hinder their progress, then that soul master is too weak-willed, too timid, and too cowardly.

With such a mindset, and such an inflexible attitude, how can one possibly reach the summit!

"Shao Zhe, if you insist on this, then you should resign as the Dean of Shrek Academy and hand it over to Lin'er. Furthermore, the customization fee will be paid by the Martial Soul Department to the Soul Guidance Department, and there must be no delays."

Seeing that Elder Mu was angry, Yan Shaozhe dared not argue no matter how dissatisfied he was, and nodded repeatedly.

Elder Mu continued, "Lin'er, after the meeting, send a letter to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, proposing mutual learning and exchange."

Xian Lin'er was taken aback. "Elder Mu, will they agree?"

Elder Mu smiled slightly, "The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy has long hoped to exchange and learn from our Shrek Academy, but we simply did not agree before."

Yan Shaozhe exclaimed in surprise, "Teacher, wouldn't this allow the alien races of the Sun Moon Empire to learn the advanced martial soul knowledge of Shrek Academy?"

Elder Mu patted the armrest of his chair and said, "The students we send to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy will learn the same things as them."

Yan Shaozhe wanted to say something more, but in his mind, soul tools were trash. How could they compare to the martial soul knowledge of Shrek Academy?

Yan Shaozhe always believed that Soul Masters were more powerful, and that Soul Tools became less effective as one progressed through the game. However, he could remain indifferent to others' claims that Soul Tools were powerful and awesome.

He even went up and challenged those who said soul tools were powerful, but since the speaker was his most admired and respected teacher, he couldn't help but take it seriously.

Seeing Yan Shaozhe being criticized, Xian Lin'er wore a smug smile, which made Qian Duoduo, who was standing next to her, extremely depressed and jealous.

Old Mu criticized Yan Shaozhe, then turned to comfort him, "Shaozhe, don't think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill."

In recent decades, the Sun Moon Empire's soul tool technology has developed rapidly, almost changing every day.

How is the development of the Soul Guidance System in our Douluo Three Kingdoms? Compared to the alien races of the Sun Moon Empire, it's far behind.

The gap in national strength is widening. Sooner or later, when the Sun Moon Empire's national strength is enough to crush our Douluo Three Kingdoms, that will be the time for war to break out.

And that day is definitely not far off; maybe ten years from now, maybe twenty.

Upon hearing Elder Mu's words, all the elders present were taken aback.

Elder Lin Huiqun exclaimed in surprise, "Elder Mu, is the Sun Moon Empire about to break out into war so soon?"

The other elders echoed, "Is war about to break out so soon?"

Elder Mu said in a deep voice, "Not long ago, I was feeling restless and decided to go to the capital of the Sun Moon Empire to see how the Sun Moon Empire is developing now."

That expedition took me by surprise. The development of soul tools in the Sun Moon Empire was beyond everyone's imagination.

The power of those soul tools could even threaten my life.

What I'm saying today is not an exaggeration. If we don't pay attention to the development of soul tools, then Shrek Academy may not be far from destruction.

Upon hearing Elder Mu's words, everyone present widened their eyes.

It can threaten the life of Elder Mu, a level 99 Limit Douluo. The Sun Moon Empire's soul tools have actually developed to this level!

The elders were all shocked, thinking, "This...this, I never imagined that soul tools had developed to such an extent. It's terrifying, truly terrifying!"

Looking at the shocked expressions on the faces of those present, Elder Mu felt quite satisfied.

What Elder Mu just said was actually a slight exaggeration. Although those soul tools put some pressure on him, they could not possibly threaten his life.

However, in order to make most of the proud elders take it seriously, Elder Mu deliberately exaggerated some of the facts. This approach proved extremely effective. Elder Mu let the tense atmosphere build for a moment before continuing, "As the Sun Moon Empire's national strength continues to grow, they are becoming increasingly restless."

Thousands of years ago, Shrek Academy led the Douluo Three Kingdoms to stop the Sun Moon Empire.

"If war breaks out again, the Sun Moon Empire will target Shrek Academy first."

After listening to Elder Mu's words, all the elders frowned and fell into deep thought.

Elder Mu said in a deep voice, "Let's vote on my proposal now." As he spoke, Elder Mu was the first to raise his hand.

As the pillar of Shrek Academy, how could Elder Mu's proposal not be approved? Moreover, what Elder Mu said makes perfect sense.

In an instant, everyone raised their hands, agreeing with Elder Mu's proposal.

Elder Mu said to the four deans of Shrek Academy: "Shao Zhe, Mei'er, Lin'er, Duo Duo, the development of soul tools is an inevitable trend that cannot be reversed. All we can do is keep up with the times."

It's time to step up our game! Shrek Academy is teeming with geniuses, and our development speed will definitely be fast. The future still belongs to Shrek Academy!

After Elder Mu finished speaking, he said to Lin Huiqun, who was in charge of Shrek Academy's commercial finances, "Huiqun, the development of soul tools requires money in all aspects, whether it's the purchase of rare metals or the blueprints for high-level soul tools. Please provide more financial support."

Elder Lin nodded and said, "In terms of funds, Jubao Pavilion still has a considerable amount of savings, Elder Mu can rest assured about that."

Elder Mu said to Xian Lin'er, "The level of Fan Yu's soul tool in the Soul Guidance Department is quite good. He should quit his job as the head of teaching and let him be in charge of researching and developing soul tools."

Aside from his two direct disciples, he won't need to teach the other students. When our students go to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy for exchange and study, let him lead the team.

Xianlin'er nodded and said, "Yes, teacher."

Seeing that he had said enough, Old Mu waved his hand and said, "Let's end the meeting here. You can all go back to your work."

The others bowed to Elder Mu, and then disappeared from the spot in a flash.

Looking at the empty hall, Elder Mu murmured, "Hopefully it's not too late to develop soul tools now, and fortunately, soul tools are not too powerful yet."

"If we wait until soul tools can easily kill Limit Douluo before striving to develop soul tools, it will truly be too late."

As Mu En lay on the recliner, he pondered, "My lifespan is almost over. After I die, with Chen Feng's talent and abilities, Shrek Academy will be worry-free for the next three hundred years. During this time, we must vigorously develop soul tools and strive to catch up with the Sun Moon Empire."

...............................

Time has come to this point.

High in the sky, Chen Feng and his group were tied together by Elder Xuan with ropes and flew through the air.

At this moment, Chen Feng and the others looked down at the ground from the air, and were all excited as they looked at the magnificent outline of Shrek City on the ground.

Seeing that they were almost at Shrek City, Elder Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down the flight speed.

Looking at the brightly lit Shrek City, Wang Dong exclaimed happily, "We've arrived at Shrek Academy! Yay!"

Although the others didn't speak, they all had smiles on their faces.

Chen Feng held the little Snow Empress in his arms, looking at Shrek City, his thoughts racing.

The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament lasted for more than a month, and Chen Feng missed his personal teaching assistant, Senior Sister Wu Ming, very much.

Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen, being only nineteen or twenty years old, are particularly mischievous, often giving Chen Feng a headache.

Senior Wu Ming was much more considerate and never gave Chen Feng any headaches. She was the most pleasant person to be around. After not seeing her for a long time, Chen Feng wanted to spend some quality time with Wu Ming.

Soon, Elder Xuan and his group arrived at the east gate of Shrek City.

This is also where the gate of Shrek Academy is located.

It was nearly afternoon, and the students had finished school, making the entrance to Shrek Academy bustling with activity.

The Shrek Academy students were laughing and chatting, while vendors gathered at the east gate of Shrek Academy, selling all sorts of things.

Seeing that there were too many people at the entrance of Shrek Academy, Elder Xuan escorted the group inside the academy before finally letting Chen Feng and the others down.

Elder Xuan said to Chen Feng and the others, "It's getting late today, you should all get some rest tonight."

"Meet at the Sea God Lake at Shrek Academy tomorrow morning at nine o'clock. Your rewards will be distributed then."

After Elder Xuan finished speaking, his figure disappeared from the spot.

At this time, Elder Xuan had already arrived at the Sea God Pavilion to report to Elder Mu.

Sea God Pavilion.

Elder Xuan looked at Elder Mu lying on the recliner and said, "Elder Mu, in this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, our Shrek Academy has once again won the championship."

Elder Mu nodded gently, "You've worked hard, Xuanzi."

Elder Xuan smiled and said, "What's so hard about it? These children are the ones who have worked hard. But Chen Feng is really amazing."

No matter who the opponent was, victory was achieved with ease.

I can tell that he hasn't shown his true strength throughout this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament. Most importantly, he's mature, composed, and lacks the impetuousness of youth. That's the most valuable quality.”

Master Mu said, "I have always been very satisfied with Chen Feng's progress. Tell me, now that Chen Feng and his team have won the championship of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament, what kind of reward should the academy give them?"

After a moment's thought, Elder Xuan said, "The Star Luo Royal Family has acquired three exquisite ten-thousand-year-old soul bones. I think it would be better if the academy also offered a few soul bones as a reward."

After listening, Mu En nodded. "Xuanzi, tell me what exactly happened during this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament."

Elder Xuan recounted the story in detail, focusing on Chen Feng.

After hearing this, Elder Mu tapped the armrest of the recliner with his finger and laughed, "That little guy Chen Feng is really in demand. The Star Luo Empire actually gave him a piece of the left arm bone of a 70,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion."

Elder Xuan nodded and said, "I think that princess of the Star Luo Empire is somewhat interested in Chen Feng."

Old Master Mu smiled and said, "The Star Luo Royal Family has certainly made a good plan..."
