Douluo Continent II: Senior Sister, Please Help Me Cultivate

From Chapter 289 onwards, call me Old Chen (Long Chapter)

Evening, Shrek Academy, Poseidon Island.

At this moment, a meeting of the Sea God Pavilion was being held in the main conference hall of the Sea God Pavilion.

Ten people sat around an oval table, while at the head of the table, Old Master Mu lay quietly in a recliner.

Behind Elder Mu stood a young man, Chen Feng.

That's right, you read that correctly. This Poseidon Pavilion meeting is different from the past, as it has the participation of a young man named Chen Feng.

In the afternoon, witnessed by many elders and senior members, Chen Feng defeated Shen Tao, a powerful expert at the Title Douluo level.

With his formidable strength and unprecedented talent, Chen Feng won over all the high-ranking members of Shrek Academy present at the time.

After Chen Feng defeated Shen Tao, Elder Mu personally stepped in to support Chen Feng and appease Shen Tao.

He then told those present not to spread the word, but only to allow it to be circulated among the higher-ups at Shrek Academy.

To the left and right of Elder Mu were Elder Xuan, Elder Song, and Elder Lin, followed by Elder Zhuang, who was a healer, and Elder Zhang, who was a man of few words and whose lifespan was nearing its end.

As for the four deans of the Martial Soul Department and the Soul Guidance Department, Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, Cai Mei'er, and Qian Duoduo, they sat at the very end.

The atmosphere in the Sea God Pavilion's conference hall was somewhat silent at this moment, with only the smacking sounds of Elder Xuan gnawing on a chicken leg and the gulping sounds of drinking alcohol.

The four deans and vice deans of Shrek Academy, in particular, stared at each other, completely bewildered, at Chen Feng behind Elder Mu.

Why is Chen Feng in the Sea God Pavilion's conference hall?

Seeing the surprised and bewildered looks on the four deans' faces, Chen Feng smiled slightly at them and then fell silent. He stood quietly behind Elder Mu, eyes downcast.

As the atmosphere in the Sea God Pavilion's meeting hall fell silent, Elder Mu's gentle voice rang out, "At this Sea God Pavilion meeting, in my capacity as the current Sea God Pavilion Master, I hereby establish Chen Feng as a member of the Sea God Pavilion and formally designate him as the successor to the Sea God Pavilion Master. Does anyone have any objections?"

As soon as Elder Mu finished speaking, all the elders present were taken aback.

They were not surprised that Chen Feng was the successor to the Sea God Pavilion Master. Although it had not been officially announced in the past, the general impression was that Chen Feng was being groomed to be the Sea God Pavilion Master.

However, the fact that Chen Feng became a member of the Sea God Pavilion surprised them.

Apart from a few deans of Shrek Academy, the members of the Sea God Pavilion present were somewhat weak in cultivation.

The other members of the Sea God Pavilion are all Super Douluo level cultivators. Isn't it a bit too early for Chen Feng, a mere Soul Emperor, to become a member of the Sea God Pavilion?

After all, no matter how powerful Chen Feng becomes in the future, that's still the future. Right now, he's just a young man who recently broke through to the Soul Emperor realm. Isn't it a bit ill-considered to appoint such a young man as a member of the Sea God Pavilion?

Neither Elder Xuan nor Elder Song objected to Elder Mu's words.

Clearly, Chen Feng decisively defeated Shen Tao in the afternoon, winning their support with his superior strength.

At this moment, Elder Lin Huiqun said, "Elder Mu, Chen Feng is too young. Isn't it a bit too early for him to become a member of the Sea God Pavilion? After all, his cultivation level is only Soul Emperor at present."

Upon hearing Elder Lin's words, the taciturn Elder Zhang nodded, clearly agreeing that it was premature to appoint the young Chen Feng as a member of the Sea God Pavilion.

Old Master Zhuang, meanwhile, leisurely reclined in his chair, took out a teacup from his storage soul tool, poured in tea leaves and water, then used his soul power to boil the water, drinking tea and watching the show.

As a support-type Soul Master, Elder Zhuang adheres to the principle of disliking conflict and has always refrained from expressing opinions, thus avoiding offending anyone.

As for the four deans and vice-deans of Shrek Academy, who were sitting at the bottom of the table, they silently watched as the older, more senior figures above them spoke.

As Master Mu's disciple, Yan Shaozhe generally wouldn't object to whatever Master Mu said. Cai Meier, as Yan Shaozhe's wife, naturally shared his views.

Moreover, Chen Feng is also the man of their disciple Ma Xiaotao. Although Chen Feng is too much of a womanizer, which makes Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier a little dissatisfied, they will naturally support Chen Feng in this matter.

As the dean and vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department, Xian Lin'er was the one who took the lead in expressing her opinions.

Xian Lin'er has a strong personality and is arrogant. When she gets angry, she may not listen to her mother, Old Master Song, or even Old Master Mu.

Sometimes, he would even impulsively slam his fist on the table during meetings at the Sea God Pavilion. (This scene appeared in the original work.)

Qian Duoduo is Xian Lin'er's loyal follower. Xian Lin'er is Qian Duoduo's goddess, so naturally, whatever Xian Lin'er thinks, Qian Duoduo thinks too.

However, in general, apart from minor matters like managing the academy, the four deans of the Martial Soul Department and the Soul Guidance Department usually watch Elder Mu and the others discuss important matters. Once Elder Mu and the others have reached a conclusion, the deans are only responsible for raising their hands to vote.

At the Sea God Pavilion meeting, the deans were juniors with insufficient cultivation, so they naturally had little say.

Although the four deans, Yan Shaozhe, Cai Meier, Xian Liner, and Qian Duoduo, did not speak, they each had their own thoughts.

Yan Shaozhe thought to himself, "This kid Chen Feng is actually going to become a member of the Sea God Pavilion? That's too scary!"

Moreover, this kid is enjoying the blessings of having two women every day, which makes me so envious. Why couldn't I do that when I was young?

Cai Meier looked at Chen Feng behind Elder Mu and felt a little upset. Chen Feng had completely figured out the moves she had taught Xiao Tao recently, making Cai Meier feel like she had met her match.

However, Cai Meier still supports Chen Feng becoming a member of the Sea God Pavilion. However, Cai Meier is a little worried that if Chen Feng is too outstanding, it will be more difficult for Xiao Tao to have him all to herself in the future.

Xian Lin'er looked at Chen Feng with her brows furrowed, as if she was thinking about things from her youth.

Xian Lin'er had only one opinion about Chen Feng: he was a super-duper enhanced version of Yan Shaozhe.

Just as dashing as Yan Shaozhe in his youth, but stronger, more talented, more cunning, and more mature.

Now, several of the most outstanding female students in the inner courtyard are infatuated with him and have even agreed to share him with others.

This made Xian Lin'er, who had been hurt by the scumbag Yan Shaozhe, unable to stand Chen Feng no matter what.

Qian Duoduo, who was next to Xian Lin'er, also disliked Chen Feng, who was standing behind Elder Mu.

Who is Qian Duoduo? He is a "pure love" warrior, pure and loyal to love, and dares not desecrate the goddess in the slightest.

In Qian Duoduo's opinion, Chen Feng and Yan Shaozhe, that bastard, are both womanizers who don't understand love.

Qian Duoduo sighed inwardly, "My love for Lin'er is truly moving and unwavering."

When will Lin'er finally forget that bastard Yan Shaozhe and be with me for real? Waaaaah.

Qian Duoduo: (︶︿︶)

While the deans were whispering amongst themselves, Elder Xuan spoke up.

After finishing the chicken leg in his hand, Elder Xuan wiped his hands and said to Elder Lin, "Lin Huiqun, I don't think your idea is appropriate. What? Do you look down on the Soul Emperor?"

Don't underestimate Chen Feng just because his cultivation level is only Soul Emperor; his strength is comparable to that of a Title Douluo.

You weren't there when Chen Feng and Shen Tao fought that afternoon. You don't know what happened then. Chen Feng fought cleanly and decisively, head-on, without any tricks, and forcefully defeated Shen Tao, who had used his ninth soul skill.

I reckon even Qian Duoduo might not be a match for Chen Feng. Lin Huiqun, tell me, what's wrong with letting Chen Feng become a member of the Sea God Pavilion?

Qian Duoduo: Huh? Why am I being singled out? I'm no match for Chen Feng, this Soul Emperor, really? I don't believe it!!

Upon hearing Elder Xuan's words, Elder Lin Huiqun asked in surprise, "Chen Feng defeated Shen Tao?"

Old Song, standing to the side, said, "That's right, Old Lin, Chen Feng did indeed defeat Shen Tao. In terms of strength, Chen Feng is comparable to a Title Douluo-level expert, and I also support Chen Feng becoming a member of the Sea God Pavilion."

Elder Xuan took out another chicken leg from his storage soul tool, ate it in one bite, and then said, "It's only a matter of time before Chen Feng becomes a member of the Sea God Pavilion. Once he has enough strength, there's no need to bring up his age or anything like that."

It's always good to enter the Sea God Pavilion early, gain experience, and broaden your horizons.

You can't hold Chen Feng to the standards of an ordinary person; geniuses deserve the treatment of geniuses.

Old Mu lay quietly on the recliner, watching Old Xuan, Old Lin, Old Song and the others discuss, without saying a word.

He had his reasons for letting Chen Feng into the Sea God Pavilion.

Now that his lifespan is running out, Chen Feng, as the next head of the Sea God Pavilion, naturally needs to take charge of things on his own as soon as possible.

In Elder Mu's view, entering the Sea God Pavilion, participating in discussions of major world events, and making important decisions for Shrek Academy would be of great benefit to a person's growth.

Vision, mindset, ideas... these things are crucial for a leader.

Spend a few years training at the Sea God Pavilion, learn more, and get to know the elders better. That way, you won't be in trouble after their passing.

Chen Feng knows nothing and suddenly becomes the head of the Sea God Pavilion. He will be overwhelmed and won't know how to manage such a large Shrek Academy.

If I stayed at the Sea God Pavilion for a few years and learned how to manage Shrek Academy, I wouldn't be so overwhelmed. I could then perfectly transfer the power and responsibilities to Chen Feng, thus avoiding any negative impact on Shrek Academy.

If he were healthy and had enough lifespan, then there would naturally be no need to rush Chen Feng into the Sea God Pavilion.

Unfortunately, he wouldn't last five years...

Even five years is an optimistic scenario; if things aren't so optimistic, it might be three or four years... before they die.

Furthermore, the external environment is harsh, the Sun Moon Empire is ambitious, the development of soul tools is advancing rapidly, and the Sun Moon Empire's national strength is growing stronger day by day, making it possible to launch a war to unify the continent at any time.

When the Sun Moon Empire invaded, Shrek Academy, as the center of the original Douluo Three Kingdoms, naturally could not stay out of it and could only participate.

In this turbulent era, Shrek Academy needs a qualified leader to guide it forward.

Under such circumstances, Elder Mu was naturally anxious. Before Chen Feng appeared, Elder Mu had always been worried about the future of Shrek Academy.

His disciples Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er are both useless; they lack strength, intelligence, and vision. How can they be expected to shoulder great responsibilities?

Among the younger generation, none of them could completely satisfy Elder Mu. Although Zhang Lexuan and Ma Xiaotao met the requirements in terms of strength and talent, they each had their own shortcomings.

Ma Xiaotao's martial soul and personality are incompatible. Her martial soul has the problem of evil fire, and she is short-tempered, irrational, and, most importantly, not intelligent enough. She is suitable as a high-level fighter, but she is obviously unqualified as a leader.

Zhang Lexuan is more suitable than Ma Xiaotao, but her strengths are limited; she's not quick-witted enough and is troubled by love.

As for the younger generation, they are too young to tell anything about them.

The vast Shrek Academy, with its countless geniuses, has not yet completely satisfied Elder Mu.

This really worried him. He had originally planned to make do with what he had and choose the best among the worst, to train Zhang Lexuan to be the successor of the Sea God Pavilion, with Xuanzi and others assisting him.

Just as Elder Mu was feeling troubled, a prodigy who could be described as perfect appeared.

With twin martial souls and ultimate martial souls, he possesses exceptional cultivation talent, strong mental power, and outstanding comprehension. He grasped the wonders of combat skills and the essence of martial souls at a young age and even developed powerful soul skills comparable to Dragon Emperor's Prison Realm Suppression and Dragon Emperor's Evil-Breaking Rift.

Any one of these things, if applied to one person, could make that person a genius; when all of these things are applied to one person, it is simply terrifying to the extreme.

In Elder Mu's eyes, Chen Feng was a prodigy.

Now, Chen Feng has been in Shrek Academy for more than two years, and his cultivation has reached the Soul Emperor level. His combat power is comparable to that of a Title Douluo.

Mature and steady, intelligent, knows how to show off his talents and get nurtured, and even the most outstanding girls in the inner courtyard are all clearly manipulated.

In the Star Dou Great Forest, the idea of ​​exchanging a mythical beast for a 100,000-year-old soul beast seemed a bit risky, but in the end, it turned out to be a good thing.

Strength, talent, comprehension, and mental fortitude all met Elder Mu's requirements, and in many aspects even exceeded Elder Mu's expectations.

He had found the perfect successor, Moon.

Now, Elder Mu hopes to cultivate Chen Feng before he passes away, so that Shrek Academy will have a strong and perfect leader.

Therefore, Elder Mu wanted Chen Feng to enter the Sea God Pavilion as soon as possible, participate in the highest decision-making of Shrek Academy, and learn how to manage Shrek Academy.

Today, regardless of whether others object, he will use his prestige to make Chen Feng a member of the Sea God Pavilion.

Although Elder Mu, who was able to create the "Ruling the World" combat technique, appeared gentle on the surface, his true nature was quite obvious.

Various thoughts flashed through Elder Mu's mind as he watched Xuanzi, Lin Huiqun, and the others discuss the matter.

At this moment, after listening to Elder Xuan's words, Elder Lin Huiqun pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Although Chen Feng's strength is sufficient, it is still too early. He is still too young and his mind is not mature enough."

I think it's best for Chen Feng to stay in the inner courtyard right now, cultivating and going to school with his peers. Becoming a member of the Sea God Pavilion too early and getting involved in decision-making about things that aren't pleasant might not be good for Chen Feng's growth.

I don't agree with Chen Feng joining the Sea God Pavilion too early. We should wait at least a few more years, until Chen Feng is more mature.

The silent old Taoist priest said, "I agree with Huiqun. It's too early for Chen Feng to enter the Sea God Pavilion."

After expressing his opinion, Old Zhang fell silent, closed his eyes, and sat down in his chair. It seemed as if saying a few more words would deplete his already dwindling life force.

Xuanzi snorted, "What do you mean by 'not a good thing'? Shrek Academy does things with integrity and uprightness."

Over the years, we have slain countless evil spirit masters and heinous criminals. Royal families and nobles from various countries are also wary of Shrek Academy, and dare not commit evil or oppress the people. In my opinion, all of this is a wonderful thing.

Lin Huiqun said angrily, "Xuanzi, aren't these things too heavy for a young man? Young people should focus on their cultivation and enjoy their youth; that's the proper thing to do."

Old Song said, "Huiqun, the Sea God Pavilion meeting is only held a few times a year and takes very little time. It doesn't affect Chen Feng much. At most, it broadens Chen Feng's horizons and helps him develop a higher and longer-term perspective."

Old Zhuang: (ω) I take a sip of tea and enjoy watching the show. You guys keep arguing, I'll just drink my tea.

As for Chen Feng, he stood respectfully behind Elder Mu, eyes downcast.

Those who are speaking now are all powerful figures like Super Douluo. Chen Feng, a mere Soul Emperor, is only a fraction of the age of these old men and women. What right does he have to offer any opinions? Didn't you see that the four deans are all silent?

Why should Chen Feng get involved? He can just listen and be done with it.

Chen Feng is not yet powerful enough to give orders at the Sea God Pavilion meeting.

「… … … … … … … 」

While Elder Xuan, Elder Song, Elder Lin, and Elder Zhang were having a heated discussion.

Old Mu tapped the armrest of the recliner with his finger, and a clattering sound rang out.

The once noisy hall immediately fell silent.

Elder Mu's gentle voice echoed in the conference hall, "Since someone has raised an objection, let's vote by raising our hands. Those who agree to Chen Feng becoming a member of the Sea God Pavilion, please raise your hands."

At this moment, Elder Xuan and Elder Song raised their hands, clearly agreeing to Chen Feng becoming a member of the Sea God Pavilion.

Following Elder Xuan and Elder Song, Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier raised their hands.

As his apprentice and son-in-law, Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier naturally had to support Chen Feng.

As for Mr. Lin Huiqun and Mr. Zhang, they held opposing views.

Zhuang Lao said, "Elder Mu, I'll take it easy. Just consider it a forfeit." After saying that, Zhuang Lao picked up his teacup again and began to stir the tea.

At this moment, Old Song looked at his daughter, Xianlin'er, and gestured for her to raise her hand.

Xian Lin'er snorted and turned her head away. Clearly, she didn't like Chen Feng and had no intention of raising her hand.

Since Xian Lin'er didn't raise her hand, her loyal Qian Duoduo naturally wouldn't either.

Seeing Xianlin'er's willful and disobedient behavior, Old Master Song rubbed his head in exasperation, clearly at a loss as to what to do with his daughter.

For a moment, it was four against four, and the score was tied.

Seeing the situation, Old Mu raised his hand, and Chen Feng helped him up.

Everyone turned their attention to Elder Mu.

With Chen Feng's support, Elder Mu addressed the assembled elders below him, saying, "Chen Feng, this child is the most outstanding, even perfect, young man I have ever met."

Strength, talent, temperament, comprehension... I can find no shortcomings. The tide of the times is about to sweep in, and an unprecedented war will break out.

Shrek Academy will inevitably be drawn into this. If things go wrong, it could decline.

My days are numbered, and I am destined to be unable to lead Shrek Academy forward in the future.

It was my opinion to make Chen Feng a member of the Sea God Pavilion. I hope Chen Feng can learn things I think he needs. Therefore, I declare that from this moment on, Chen Feng is officially a member of the Sea God Pavilion!

Chen Feng: (`へ*)ノ From now on, call me Chen Lao!
