Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 148 Breaking the Record
Chen Ping turned his head and saw that all his different storage soul tools were placed on the bedside table, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He doesn't have the habit of having multiple burrows; all his wealth is in these storage soul tools.

If all of these are gone, he will have nothing left except for a negligible amount of cultivation.

But soon, Chen Ping discovered that the storage ring he had used for several years, with a storage volume of 0.1 cubic meters, had a broken fingernail-sized gem on it.

It looks as if the mirror surface has been struck hard with a chisel.

"Your storage ring exploded on its own."

Teacher Li handed the hot tea to Chen Ping and said, "And your Soul-Devouring Blade, you also got it yourself."

"We only found out later that this murderous knife could be protected from evil spirits if it was placed in a box made of Yanyang Iron Essence. In order not to affect you, we temporarily put it away and placed it with Dean Yan."

"However, to prevent you from having other plans or uses for the Soul-Devouring Blade, Dean Yan, although he can help you remove the evil energy from the blade, has not done so yet."

"After all, you can kill an Evil Soul Douluo with just a piece of gold crystal, who knows what kind of trouble you can cause with this murderous blade."

At this point, Teacher Li's words inevitably carried a hint of sarcasm.

Chen Ping took the tea that Teacher Li handed him and drank a few sips. He felt much better and said, "Teacher Li, please stop teasing me. It's not like I didn't remove the evil energy on purpose. With my own martial spirit attributes, I couldn't remove the evil energy from that evil blade."

"If Dean Yan could help remove the evil energy from this murderous blade, that would be wonderful."

"I heard that before this engraving knife was ranked as a ninth-level evil soul mentor, it was at least a treasure that could rank in the top thirty on the engraving knife list."

"Each time a soul tool is created, at least two additional special effects can be added."

"If I hadn't gone out to hunt souls right after receiving this carving knife and encountered this incident, I would have taken this carving knife to Dean Yan to purify the evil energy on it long ago."

At this point, Chen Ping gave a wry smile: "Damn it, I've suffered so much since I went out, and I still haven't gotten my second spirit ring."

"Hmph, you've got a pretty big heart, kid. You've escaped death several times, and you're still thinking about your second spirit ring?"

Just then, Qian Duoduo's loud voice rang out as he pushed open the door to the infirmary and walked in with Yan Shaozhe.

Chen Ping was surprised to see the two deans arrive together.

It's only natural for Qian Duoduo, as his master, to come and see his apprentice, but for Yan Shaozhe to come along as well, the treatment he's receiving is far too high.

"Teacher, Dean Yan."

Chen Ping hurriedly got off the hospital bed and said.

"Alright, alright, why be so polite? Just sit properly on the bed."

Qian Duoduo waved her hand and she and Yan Shaozhe found a place to sit down.

"Don't rush your second spirit ring. Du Weilun and Shi Xing are unreliable. I'll take you next time, and I guarantee there won't be any problems."

Qian Duoduo waved his hand. These days, the Star Dou Forest is full of evil soul masters, and even in the mixed zone, one can encounter imperial auspicious beasts and the infamous Crimson King, who's on the ferocious beast list. It's really a bit frightening. He only has this one disciple now, so he'd feel more at ease taking him on soul hunting missions himself in the future.

"Tsk, can you guarantee there won't be any problems if you go?"

Yan Shaozhe clicked his tongue in admiration: "Chen Ping, kid, why did you choose Old Qian as your master? He's still destined to get beaten up even if he faces the Crimson King. Now, leave Old Qian behind and come with me. I'll take you on a Soul Hunting expedition, and we won't be afraid of the Crimson King then."

Qian Duoduo was furious at Yan Shaozhe's words: "Yan Shaozhe, that's enough, you're only one level higher than me, so what?"

“A higher level is still a higher level. Outside, I would be a Super Douluo, while you would just be an ordinary Title Douluo.”

Yan Shaozhe's tone was smug, but what he said was absolutely true. The difference between a Super Douluo and an ordinary titled Douluo was indeed significant, even though Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe were only one level apart.

Seeing Chen Ping's sly smile and silent demeanor, Yan Shaozhe knew that he couldn't possibly steal Chen Ping's girlfriend by his own words.

"Alright, Chen, I came with Lao Qian to find you this time mainly because of a few things."

Yan Shaozhe put away his smile and said seriously.

"First of all, you performed quite well in the face of evil soul masters and imperial beasts, remaining calm and surviving several times. What's more, you also took down an 85th-level Soul Douluo."

"You killed an evil spirit master by crossing a level difference of 65 levels. You're really something. Do you know that before you, the record holder for killing an evil spirit master by crossing the highest level was Elder Mu?"

"Back then, Elder Mu, with his level 51 cultivation, single-handedly defeated an 81-level Evil Soul Douluo. The fact that he overcame an evil soul with a 30-level difference in soul power was a feat that Shrek Academy had never accomplished in the past 10,000 years."

"That's a Soul Douluo among evil Soul Masters, a guy who's much more troublesome than ordinary Title Douluos!"

"You're something else, level 65! With that kind of record, you're probably going to close that record for good."

Chen Ping didn't actually agree with Yan Shaozhe's words.

If he can use a golden crystal to directly burst the body of an evil soul master, does that mean no one will use other soul tools to deal with evil soul masters in the future?

A single level-nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell is enough for a soul master to wipe a high-ranking titled Douluo off the Douluo Continent.

Just then, Yan Shaozhe continued, "The recording bead you handed to Director Du concerns the Imperial Auspicious Beast, and may even involve the ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Forest. Therefore, Elder Mu and Elder Xuan have also examined it carefully and even convened a meeting of the Sea God Pavilion."

"Elder Mu has also spoken. He and Elder Xuan can stop preparing their medicinal meals for a while, but the food for the Imperial Beast cannot be neglected. It must be done with utmost care and cannot be done carelessly."

"The relationship between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts has become increasingly tense over time. Your ability to achieve mutual benefit with the Auspicious Beast is equivalent to having another window for dialogue between the Soul Beast World and the Soul Master World, and it is a dialogue window belonging to the younger generation of the Soul Master World and the Soul Beast World."

"Although even Elder Mu can't quite see how this will develop in the future, this matter is beneficial to you, the academy, and the Star Dou Forest."

At this point, Yan Shaozhe paused and said, "I came to see you about something else, which concerns the first half of the contents of the recording bead."

"You probably know that Shrek Academy is divided into inner and outer academies."
