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

Chapter 666 The Hungry Hyena (6K words, taking a day off at the beginning of the month)

Inside the carriage, Ming Lei Douluo looked at Nangong Wan and asked, "Second Brother, what do you think of this kid?"

A layer of silver-gray light shone in Nangong Wan's eyes.

The light inside the carriage suddenly brightened, and everything was bathed in a silvery-gray hue.

"This kid is no ordinary person. Judging from their reaction when they saw the level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell, our judgment is correct."

“I made a special trip to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy these past few days. Although I didn’t find any clues, based on the previous clues and today’s test with a fixed-position cannon, these two are most likely disciples of a level nine soul master in the Mingde Hall.”

"Mingdetang, or rather, Jing Hongchen followed Xu Tianran, but then put these two brothers, whose potential is in no way inferior to that of Hongchen and his sister, out in the black market. Is this an attempt to hedge their bets?"

At this point, Nangong Wan's face showed a hint of interest.

"Hmph, they're just two-faced. These two are promising, but Jing Hongchen is not trustworthy. Back when Mingde Hall was attacked, they even slandered us, saying that we looted Mingde Hall's underground warehouse."

"I think this is just a good show that Jing Hongchen has been directing and acting all along. Who knows, this guy might have even colluded with the Body Sect."

Ming Lei Douluo showed no mercy to Jing Hongchen, hurling insults at him mercilessly.

“These two lads aren’t necessarily junior members of Jing Hongchen’s family, Third Brother, don’t get so worked up.”

Nangong Wan chuckled.

"Master, are you really going to use a level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell as a reward?"

Seeing the resentment on Ming Lei Douluo's face, Mo Ke seized the opportunity to speak.

The Thunder God frowned. "Shut up. Who gives you the right to speak here?"

Although Merck was filled with resentment, he immediately suppressed it when he saw the impatience on the teacher's face.

He knew all too well that his teacher was not known for his good temper. Once, a senior student had his head smashed open for talking back to the teacher.

"Alright, once I've taken that kid in, I'll have him return the Dark Azure Dragon and Flame Wizard swords to you two. The Soul-Devouring Blade he has is far superior to those two carving knives, so there's no need for him to covet your two carving knives."

“Mingdetang is not short of carving knives. The reason they made a bet with you is only because you were hot-tempered and provoked them first. They just punished you a little. Don’t forget, Mingdetang has more than thirty carving knives on display.”

Nangong Wan smoothed things over and then steered the conversation back to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

"It's hard to say whether the Body Sect and Mingde Hall are colluding, but it's possible that the Body Sect and Shrek Academy are colluding."

"The Soul Guidance Armor that Shrek Academy brought out in this competition is really powerful. It can instantly amplify the Soul Power of a level 50 Soul King to the level of a Soul Emperor."

"If we can truly master this technology, the development of soul-guided armor will undoubtedly be very promising." "Our Crown Princess once encountered the armor mother machine used by Shrek Captain Chen Ping when she was stationed in the Jingyang Mountains. It is an auxiliary soul-guided mechanical exoskeleton device equipped outside the body."

"These are drawings created by court painters based on the Crown Princess's description. The Vice Master and Mingde Hall each received a copy."

Upon hearing this, Ming Lei Douluo took the blueprint from Nangong Wan's hand, examined it carefully, and soon nodded in approval.

"What a brilliant idea! Such a simple structure and equipment can greatly enhance a Soul Master's various physical attributes. Combined with a sealed milk bottle, the efficiency is doubled."

"Although this thing is not very useful to us at the moment, it is of great significance to the Soul Master Legion. If it is the kind of fully upgraded equipment used in the competition, the boost to the army will be even more exaggerated."

"The equipment is good, but if we want to completely transform it into the kind of combat armor that appeared in the competition, our current resources are definitely not enough."

Ming Lei Douluo shook his head and continued, "If the people of Shrek Academy hadn't obtained a lot of related technologies from the Body Sect, they probably wouldn't have been able to create this treasure."

"Unfortunately, a large number of Mingdetang researchers died, and much of the research data was destroyed. Now it seems that even they are probably having a lot of trouble with this technology."

Nangong Wan chuckled and said, "It's alright, it's alright. The vice leader said you can just take a look at these things. It would be great if you find them useful, but it's fine if you don't."

"Our most urgent task right now is to urge Xu Tianran to find a way to start a localized hot war. Once the war really starts, it will eventually escalate into a full-scale war between the Sun Moon Empire and the three great empires as time goes by."

"At that time, not only will our Holy Spirit Cult have an inexhaustible supply of cultivation materials, but the Supreme Elder's Death Tower will also have materials to recharge, won't it?"

Upon hearing this, Ming Lei Douluo couldn't help but show a look of longing on his face: "The Death God Tower in the hands of the Supreme Elder is a genuine level 10 soul tool with immeasurable power, but unfortunately the cost of activating it once is too high."

"If you ask me, we might as well use the rewards from this competition to blow up the main city of the Sun Moon Empire. The millions of wronged souls and the tens of millions of resentment and fear would be more than enough to power up the Tower of Death."

"As long as we blow it up first and collect everything we need, we can get on the train first and pay the ticket later. Even if Xu Tianran is not satisfied, what can he say?"

At this moment, Ming Lei Douluo and Nangong Wan were unaware that Chen Ping, in the carriage right next to them, had used Huo Yuhao's mental detection to hear everything the two had said in the carriage.

Even though the carriage actually contained a soul tool that could block sound transmission, it did not affect Chen Ping's ability to hear clearly, and the sound sent chills down his spine.

What a clever scheme of getting on the train first and buying the ticket later!
Chen Ping's eyes narrowed slightly. These Nether Thunder Douluo and Nangong Wan truly lived up to their reputation as titled Douluo among evil soul masters. Their methods were incredibly bloody and their actions were truly unparalleled.

In the original novel, the Mingdu explosion killed so many people that it directly satiated the hungry evil spirit masters, which is why Xu Tianran could use these evil spirit masters with ease.

But it's clear that the Holy Spirit Cult, on this timeline that Chen Ping has already disrupted and where the Mingdu explosion will never happen again, has begun to consider how many people they need to slaughter to satisfy the appetite of the entire Holy Spirit Cult.

Either the sword is turned outwards or inwards; these hungry hyenas of the Holy Spirit Cult are clearly starting to lose their will to eat human flesh.
