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

Chapter 169 Invitation to the Treasure Hunt
Soon, Qian Duoduo became obsessed, fiddling with the flying soul tool in front of him over and over again.

Injecting soul power and spraying it, then laughing for a long time, then injecting soul power and spraying it again, then laughing for a long time again.

It's no wonder Qian Duoduo reacted so erratically; the flying soul guide device that Chen Ping created has strategic significance.

Of course, to put it bluntly, from the moment this soul tool came into existence, future Great Soul Masters also had the means to soar through the skies.

However, they also gained the qualification to fill in the gaps in the air on the day they went to the battlefield.

Qian Duoduo is actually quite open-minded about all of this; being a filler character is better than being a prisoner.

Once Chen Ping's soul tool is officially unveiled, it will at least greatly enhance the Star Luo Empire's deterrent power over the Sun Moon Empire in the Mingdou Mountains, and could potentially postpone the arrival of war by several years.

If Qian Duoduo remembers correctly, ever since he can remember, people have been saying that the Sun Moon Empire is probably getting closer to launching a war, but until now, the war has not started.

But Qian Duoduo knew very well that the reason why a fight hadn't broken out was because the Sun Moon Empire was waiting, waiting for the Shrek Academy to reach a period of transition when there was no one to take over.

Shrek Academy can't produce a Limit Douluo every generation. Elder Mu is a Limit Douluo, and Elder Xuan also has a chance, but between Yan Shaozhe and him, who has the potential to become a Limit Douluo?
They didn't have it, but did Cai Meier and Xian Lin'er have it? No, they didn't either.

Their generation is no good. With Elder Mu gone, Elder Xuan has to carry the torch until Shi Xing, or even the younger generation like Zhang Lexuan and Ma Xiaotao, grow up and reach the pinnacle of their abilities.

Actually, this is still the best outcome. What Qian Duoduo is more worried about is that after Elder Mu leaves, Elder Xuan still won't be able to break through to the Limit Douluo level in a short time, and the Sun Moon Empire will take advantage of this critical moment to launch a war.

Given the current state of affairs regarding Chen Ping's Level 2 flying soul tool, it's highly unlikely that the Sun Moon Empire will rashly launch a war until they find a way to crack and replicate it.

A four-ring Soul Master can launch attacks from the air over a large area, while a two-ring Great Soul Master can fight from the air over a large area. The difference in the intensity of strategic deterrence between them is an order of magnitude.

Of course, Qian Duoduo still needs to think more about how to use this soul tool to maximize its effect.

"Chen Ping."

Qian Duoduo looked at Chen Ping and handed him the light blue Level 2 Soul Master badge: "From today onwards, you are a certified Level 2 Soul Master."

"Today, your teacher has assigned you a new project. Go and look through the documents about soul tool encryption in the academy's library, try to thoroughly understand the basic technology, and apply it to your flying soul tool."

"I'm not forcing you to finish this project quickly, but until it's finished, unless it's a matter of life and death, I won't allow you to use this level-two flying soul tool you made. Do you understand?"

Chen Ping wasn't stupid; he could already tell the importance of his flying soul tool from Qian Duoduo's few words.

The shift from a jet-jet structure to a turbofan structure is indeed a groundbreaking innovation, and its extremely high utilization rate of soul power has the potential to change the battlefield landscape.

"Okay, teacher, I've got it."

Chen Ping nodded. He didn't want the technology he had painstakingly replicated from his hometown to be copied so easily. It wasn't about being noble or not; it was just human nature.

Which of the high-level soul tools that the Sun Moon Empire sold to the three great empires wasn't protected by encryption?

Learning the most advanced encryption technology would be beneficial and harmless for Chen Ping. This was just a transition from a turbojet to a turbofan structure; even if it were plagiarized, Chen Ping wouldn't particularly care, since it was technology from the 1930s. But if he later had the opportunity to develop a flight soul guide device with a scramjet and pulse detonation structure, and that was subsequently plagiarized, then Chen Ping would be left only to cry in the toilet.

"Teacher, let me explain it to you?"

Seeing how much Qian Duoduo loved it, Chen Ping realized that the other person must be curious, as if a cat's claws were scratching at them, unable to figure out how he had increased the utilization rate of his soul power several times over.

"No, no!"

Qian Duoduo quickly shook his head, but then seemed to think of something, and took an extra-large recording bead to open it while speaking.

"By the way, even if you master how to encrypt your own flying soul tool, if you take this soul tool outside and someone asks about it, the designer can only be me. Remember that?"

“I designed a level-two flying soul tool that only a Great Soul Master can use, and the design of this soul tool has nothing to do with you.”

Qian Duoduo's words sound exactly like a mentor openly stealing students' research results from the laboratory.

But Chen Ping knew very well that things were not like that at all; otherwise, Qian Duoduo would have had no reason to bring up such a large recording bead.

"I understand, teacher."

Seeing that Chen Ping agreed without hesitation, Qian Duoduo stood up with a smile and rubbed Chen Ping's head: "As the saying goes, one should become famous as early as possible, but you're doing this way too early, at twelve years old, with a brand-new soul tool structure that can change the entire war pattern of Douluo Continent."

"The taller the tree, the more the wind will blow against it. Once your talent is exposed, you can forget about attending any new technology conferences for soul tools. It will definitely do more harm than good to your future growth. You don't want to have countless eyes watching you every time you go out, do you?"

"Teacher, please activate the recording bead. Our conversation will be preserved. In the future, once you have at least the strength of a Soul Saint, the title of the creator of this special configuration of the flying soul tool will still be yours."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ping felt a warmth in his heart. Where could he find such a good boss?

When your soul power level is low, it will help you focus your attention on your studies, and once your soul power level increases, it will repay you for the fame without missing a single detail.

Oh right, this is the mentor who will take care of you in your old age and see you off in your final days, not those mentors or bosses who want to exploit you to the bone. It's normal for their attitude towards students to be different.

After handing the memory bead to Chen Ping, Qian Duoduo waited until Chen Ping put the large memory bead away before opening his treasure chest-like drawer again, taking out a piece of gold-embossed red paper, and handing it to Chen Ping.

"This is an invitation to our academy's treasure appreciation event, open to core disciples of both academies. You can participate starting from your second year, so naturally there's one for you."

"Simply put, this is one of the ways our academy wins people over. It's an activity where we invest in promising young Soul Masters, making them feel obligated to help us. You can try it out when you have time."

Chen Ping was completely dumbfounded when Qian Duoduo so casually revealed the true nature of the treasure appreciation event.

No, this is something you can just say casually. Even if you were to say it, you should at least say it in a more tactful way.
