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

Chapter 384 The Awareness of a Top-Tier Soul Master
"Snow Emperor, calm down, calm down."

"Professor Mo caused this mess because of insufficient research funding."

"Even if you want to cut funding, what about cutting Professor Camo's funding later, like Jing Hongchen? He's even more hateful."

At this moment, within Chen Ping's spiritual sea, Elder Yi was nowhere to be found conducting research, while the elves remained in a state of deep sleep to conserve their energy. Thus, only Chen Ping and Xue Di were present.

After Chen Ping understood the whole story, he couldn't help but smile wryly as he tried his best to comfort Xue Di, in order to ensure that Xue Di wouldn't completely lose her temper.

“Jing Hongchen, you’re right. Jing Hongchen should be executed.”

Xue Di slightly pouted her red lips and nodded thoughtfully. Even in a fleeting glance, she was as beautiful as a virgin.

But soon, Xue Di pulled out an ice sword from who-knows-where and roared, "If you want to kill Jing Hongchen, then don't even think about killing Mo Fang either, I'll kill him too!"

Chen Ping was completely helpless. Although Xue Di's progress in becoming human was interrupted in the middle, her temperament was definitely still uncontrollably turning towards that of a child.

You might say that Xue Di in this state calls everyone she meets "Dad," but that's definitely not the case. However, she does have a bit of a spoiled girlfriend vibe, and she really is unreasonable.

"How about this, if there's a chance in the future, I'll take you to see Hyotei a few times, as long as you don't chase after Professor Mo Fang and try to kill him, okay?"

Although Chen Ping knew that as long as he didn't allocate soul power to Xue Di, no matter how unwilling she was, as a soul spirit, she couldn't possibly kill Mo Fang out of thin air.

However, the high autonomy and combat-aid nature of spirits also mean that spirit masters and spirits are like partners living together; they must work together and adjust to each other. That's why Chen Ping was so patient in comforting Xue Di.

"Bing'er, okay."

Upon hearing this, Xue Di hesitated for a moment before finally agreeing to Chen Ping's conditions.

But soon, Xue Di looked at Chen Ping with some vigilance and warned, "Chen Ping, don't even think about making a move on Bing'er."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ping found it amusing. Was he really after Hyotei?
Ice Emperor was already tricked into becoming a martial soul by Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Huo Yuhao!

After finally comforting Xue Di, who had become his spirit due to a series of unfortunate events, Chen Ping looked at Mo Fang again.

Mo Fang was stunned by the Snow Emperor aura emanating from Chen Ping, and immediately scratched his head: "What just happened? Where were we?"

Chen Ping said, "The 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, the one you caught in the far north."

Upon hearing this, Mo Fang touched the sparse white hair on his head: "Yes, a 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo."

"To be honest, after catching that 100,000-year-old soul beast, I wanted to keep the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo many times."

"After all, I'm already an 88th-level Soul Douluo. If I take some banned drugs that squeeze out my potential, I might become a true 90th-level quasi-titled player within five years."

"By then, after killing that 100,000-year-old soul beast inside the Conferred God Platform, I too can become a Title Douluo with a 100,000-year-old soul ring and soul bone."

“But…” Mo Fang shook his head and sighed, “I’m not reconciled.”

"A titled Douluo means nothing to me."

"A 100,000-year spirit ring or spirit bone is of little significance to a spirit master like me who can only release a spirit ring a few times a year."

"But I am the only one who has poured my life's blood into this soul tool, yet I cannot make it shine and obtain the status it deserves as a linked defensive soul tool. I am truly unwilling to let it be tarnished."

"Therefore, I ultimately chose to sell the embryo of the 100,000-year-old soul beast, along with this level-nine soul tool, the Conferred God Platform." "Even if this matter is exposed, I will inevitably be labeled a traitor."

"Even because of the Conferred God Platform, this matter is like fire that can't be hidden forever, and sooner or later it will burn me to ashes as well."

"But with this money, I can try to produce several thousand more sets of linked defensive soul tools to supply the Soul Master Corps. Perhaps, just one day, I will be able to prove myself."

At this point, Mo Fang seemed like a deflated balloon, unable to utter another word.

It's obvious that Jing Hongchen doesn't care where the funding for his continued experiments comes from.

With his status as a duke and his position as the head of Mingde Hall, he only needed a few words to render all of Mo Fang's efforts futile.

And this is indeed the case.

Mo Fang never got to see the day when the linked soul tool would shine. Instead, he first witnessed the downfall of Mingde Hall and the moment when Jing Hongchen desperately needed to find a scapegoat.

Perhaps having anticipated that Mo Fang possessed a level-eight fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell capable of taking him down with him, Jing Hongchen didn't even show his face.

He directly chose to use the evil soul master to eliminate Mo Fang, while at the same time showing his attitude towards the Holy Spirit Cult in front of the royal family—the theft of the level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell had absolutely nothing to do with the Holy Spirit Cult!

If Chen Ping hadn't inadvertently accepted a side quest related to the Holy Spirit Cult because of Nana, Mo Fang would have been facing an ambush, and at best, he would have dragged Yan down with him and perished together.

Therefore, in Chen Ping's mind, Mo Fang's figure had become majestic.

Mo Fang's dedication and commitment to the field of soul tools deeply impressed Chen Ping.

In the Douluo Three Kingdoms, including Shrek Academy, is there any Soul Master who would give up the pursuit of a 100,000-year Soul Ring or Soul Bone and resolutely sell a 100,000-year Soul Beast Embryo just to raise more research funds?

Even Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er might not be able to do this.

As senior members of the academy, even if they give up on a 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, they still have a chance to obtain a 100,000-year-old soul ring when they reach level 90.

Mo Fang's abandonment of the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo means that he will almost certainly never be able to obtain a 100,000-year-old soul ring in his lifetime.

Even so, for the sake of his soul tool research, he did not hesitate to sell the embryo to the Star Luo Empire.

This is a level nine Soul Master that no one in the entire Douluo Three Kingdoms, including Shrek Academy, has ever achieved!
Chen Ping was filled with inexplicable emotions. Was the difference between the Soul Guidance Domain of Douluo Continent and the Soul Guidance Domain of the Sun Moon Empire merely a matter of technology?

Chen Ping might have thought that way originally, but after hearing about the few things Mo Fang had done in his life, Chen Ping changed his initial opinion.

The Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire are the ones who truly focus on research and developing Soul Tools, rather than simply being skilled at using them as warriors. These are two completely different concepts.

From this perspective, Shrek's extreme individual combat tactics of wanting both things are utterly absurd and ridiculous.

If it weren't for Huo Yuhao, who truly achieved the ultimate individual soldier feat of wanting both, Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department's almost desperate attempt to gamble on the ultimate individual soldier direction would have been nothing short of a blatant crime!
Therefore, Chen Ping still prefers Professor Mo, an academic talent who is down-to-earth and achieves results step by step.

Mo Fang only needed funding and a quiet research environment, free from the distractions and complexities of the outside world, and Chen Ping was able to provide just that.

Therefore, when faced with Professor Mo Fang, who was pushed to the opposite side by Jing Hongchen, and even the entire Sun Moon Royal Family, Chen Ping could only accept it all!
