Douluo Continent: I can nurture soul beasts and even perform super evolution.

Chapter 251 The Advancement Path of Bai Xiuxiu, the Vice Dean and Senior Sister of the Martial Soul Department
"Oh?" Jing Hongchen asked in surprise.

Actually, he came today simply to put pressure on Qian Duoduo. Who told this kid to be so idle all day? Ever since he came to the Soul Guidance Department, he's been incredibly free. Damn it, he just retired from Mingde Hall, and now he has to work overtime day and night again.
And he still had to rebuild a Soul Guidance Department that had nothing to begin with, step by step?
Just thinking about it makes me angry!
I was originally planning to take Su Wen down with me, but I never expected this kid to actually... say he has it?!

“Marine mines,” Su Wen said with a light laugh.

"Holy crap? You even took care of the soul beasts in the sea?!" Jing Hongchen exclaimed in astonishment.

It wasn't until he arrived at Shrek Academy that he realized just how terrifying Su Wen's network of connections was...

He has a connection with almost all the spirit beasts in the sky and on the ground.

In the far north, in the Star Dou Great Forest, he was completely dumbfounded when he took over; it was a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast that had delivered it...

“That’s right.” Su Wen nodded with a smile.

"I've established a relationship with the Sea Princess clan. Every year, a batch of seabed metal ore will be mined and brought ashore by them. Of course, I will also send people to receive it... All I need to do is give them some land-based items. By the way, I heard they are quite interested in soul tools and things like underwater propulsion devices."

Jing Hongchen: "..."

What's the difference between that and giving it away?!
"Alright then." Jing Hongchen clicked her tongue. Since she couldn't make things difficult for this kid, she might as well let it go...

Go find Ah Xiao and ask him to work for you.

Having decided to join Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department, given his sense of responsibility, he would absolutely not let this mess continue. First and foremost, he needed to protect the disciples who had transferred from the Sun Moon Empire...

Coincidentally, they were all from commoner backgrounds.

These level 5 and 6 Soul Masters can be regarded as the backbone of the next generation of Soul Guidance Academy. In addition, Xiao Hongchen... he actually had some selfish motives, which was to let his grandson succeed him as the dean of the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy in the future.

He saw it clearly: the future center of gravity of the continent would inevitably be Shrek Academy. With Su Wen alone, the Sun Moon Empire's so-called plan to crush the three continental kingdoms was simply impossible to achieve.

In that case, the Hongchen family is the same wherever they are...

Jing Hongchen left in a flurry of activity.

Qian Duoduo finally relaxed and slumped on the sofa, her chubby body like a lump of mud.

"Speaking of which... Xiao Wen, you didn't go easy on the sea spirit beasts again, did you? Don't let the sea princess's clan end up with a little cub claiming it's yours..."

"Ouch, ouch."

But before she could finish speaking, Qian Duoduo was grabbed by the ear by Xian Lin'er, who rushed in and angrily said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could you joke like this with Xiao Wen?!"

"We're all men, I was just making a joke between men..." Qian Duoduo looked guilty.

"It's alright, Aunt Xian." Su Wen said with a smile, "Uncle Qian might be having some romantic entanglements lately. Maybe he's got his eye on some female teacher from the Soul Guidance Department? There have been quite a few teachers recruited recently, so you'd better keep a close eye on him."

"Money is plentiful!" Xian Lin'er roared in fury.

Like a Valkyrie, she grabbed Qian Duoduo by the ear and left.

"Oh, Lin'er, let me explain! Let me..."

Su Wen smiled as he watched this scene.

For some reason, in his eyes, Qian Duoduo and Xian Lin'er had a much more harmonious relationship than in the original novel. They were clearly a real couple, unlike Qian Duoduo who was a sly character from beginning to end in the original novel and was given a "good guy" card.

Xian Lin'er's feelings towards Yan Shaozhe were clearly more hostile.

That’s all.

Su Wen shook his head.

A jet-black Poké Ball appeared in his hand, decorated with a simple sea-blue shark head.

That's right, while taking in Liya, Bai Xiuxiu naturally didn't let her go either.

With a talent level of 7, being able to become the female lead 20,000 years later, and the wife that Tang San personally planned for his grandson, her talent is by no means bad.

The fifth Poké Ball of the Second Martial Soul.

The advanced path is somewhat beyond imagination.

[Demon Soul Great White Shark] → [Abyss Demon Dragon Shark] → [Abyss Water Demon Dragon]

The final stage is naturally the [Azure Water Devouring Dragon].

To be honest, Su Wen was somewhat surprised by this evolution result. After all, according to the original work, her martial soul only gradually evolved after Zi Ji became her soul spirit.

Furthermore, the direction of advancement in the original work is ice attribute, not water attribute.

Perhaps it's due to changes in the timeline?

Su Wen shook his head.

He does lack water-attribute soul beasts now, but he has plenty of ice-attribute ones. Even if he were to evolve towards the ice attribute, it would be a waste and completely unnecessary.

now.

Inside the black Poké Ball.

In the vast ocean, Bai Xiuxiu blew bubbles, watching the marine life that swam swiftly by, its massive bodies nearly a hundred meters long cutting through the waves on either side: "Hooray! My world! A world completely under my control!"

"It can even transform into a dragon! That's... amazing!"

And from the sky.

This is a huge water dragon, its majestic body resembling a moving island, its pale blue scales shimmering dazzlingly in the sunlight.

As a water-type... she is definitely the ultimate in this category.

The finest water.

"La la la la, I'm a happy little shark..."

……

Deputy Director of the Martial Soul Department.

Inside the office.

Zhang Lexuan was engrossed in handling affairs. The Martial Soul Department was Shrek Academy's flagship department, so naturally, it was full of complicated matters. Even though Yan Shaozhe took on most of the trouble, Zhang Lexuan, as a newcomer, still seemed flustered.

Cai Meier stepped down from her position six months ago and became an inner court teacher. With a few more years of experience, she could eventually enter the Sea God Pavilion.

And now, Zhang Lexuan, who is in the class of '93, has naturally become her successor.

Shrek Academy is like that.

As the younger generation matures and gains sufficient strength, the older generation will naturally step down and hand over the baton to the younger generation.

"Please come in."

Zhang Lexuan pointed to the sofa in front of her without even looking up.

The pile of files on her desk was giving her a headache. She guessed that another martial spirit department teacher had come to ask her to handle a matter, so she could only wait.

But the visitor showed no intention of sitting down; instead, he walked straight behind her and began examining the files.

"..."

Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly.

Who is it?

So lacking in tact.

As the vice dean of the Martial Soul Department, he naturally inherited many secrets, some even concerning the entire academy's confidential matters, which are not for just anyone to see...

But when the beauty raised her head, her stunning face froze.

"Xiao Wen? What happened to you... um."

A hint of joy flashed in Zhang Lexuan's beautiful eyes, but her raised red lips were also sealed with a kiss.

I do not know how long it has been.

Their lips parted. Su Wen licked his lips, a smile appearing on his face: "Sister Le Xuan? Oh no, it seems I'll have to call her Vice Dean from now on."

Zhang Lexuan breathed heavily, her pretty face flushed from the long kiss, and glared at Su Wen: "What are you saying!"

"Besides, aren't you also the vice dean? The vice dean of the forging department, and my colleague. When you enter the Sea God Pavilion and become the pavilion master, I'm afraid my sister will be bullied to death by you."

"How could that be?" Su Wen smiled. "I don't like to use my power to bully others."

"Oh?" Zhang Lexuan leaned back in her soft chair, draping her long, slender legs over the desk, her feet clad in black high heels...

She tilted her head, her beautiful eyes glistening with tears as she looked at Su Wen.

"I still prefer to persuade people with reason!" Su Wenyi said righteously.

"Then let me see the truth quickly," Zhang Lexuan said gently, her eyes alluring.

So the next second.

Zhang Lexuan successfully grasped the truth.

Su Wen waved his hand.

The office door was slammed shut by a gust of wind.

Then, a love song began to play in the office.

……

"Latest news from the Sun and Moon Empire."

Su Wen sat on the sofa, with a soft, beautiful woman dressed in tattered clothes in his arms, looking at the briefing with a contented expression.

"We cordially invite all academies and sects across the continent to participate in the All-Continent Soul Master Tournament two years from now, hehe..."

"Sects? Is the Sun Moon Empire going to relax the application requirements?" Zhang Lexuan blushed and leaned against Su Wen's chest. Upon hearing this news, she couldn't help but raise her head and look into Su Wen's eyes seriously.

"Hmm." Su Wen nodded slightly, his eyes narrowing slightly.

To be honest, even if Tang San noticed the lower realm, he couldn't openly do anything to him. After all, the Golden Tree Ah Yin and the Silver Dragon King were both in Shrek Academy. If a conflict were to break out, it would surely alarm the God Realm.

This is absolutely something Tang San didn't want to see, otherwise he wouldn't have only mobilized the power of the Sea God from beginning to end.

Therefore, he guessed that Tang San would most likely focus his attention on the Valley of Dog Abuse in the Qiankun Kingdom.

Only there could he directly control the place he was in, and Destruction would not notice anything amiss.

He naturally wouldn't go there, but he had to be wary of Tang San's schemes against him...

"But is the Sun Moon Empire really that kind?" Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly, still feeling the afterglow of her workout, and leaned closer to look at the daily newspaper.

“The various sects have suddenly changed the rules they have followed for thousands of years. I’m afraid countless sects will flood into the competition now, and the competition time will probably have to be extended a lot.”

"Does Mingdu really need a major competition to boost consumption? Are they really that poor?" Zhang Lexuan's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of mockery.

The fact that she could so shamelessly try to kill Su Wen and launch a siege shows that if her lover hadn't been so powerful, he probably wouldn't have made it back... This made her feel absolutely no goodwill towards the Sun Moon Empire.

"That's not necessarily true," Su Wen said with a smile, holding the plump fruit in her hand.

"Can't bear to see it?" Zhang Lexuan leaned against Su Wen's chest, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise.

She was somewhat immune to Su Wen's actions.

"The Sun Moon Empire is suddenly doing something like this at this time. What good intentions do you think they have? They're probably just gathering all the heroes to wipe them out in one fell swoop," Su Wen chuckled.

"What?!" Zhang Lexuan was shocked and sat up abruptly.

"How dare they!"

"The news that Elder Jing brought back is most likely true..." Su Wen sighed softly.

"Elder Jing, they, they..." Zhang Lexuan was stunned. After all, this news was too explosive. The Sun Moon Empire was practically declaring war on the other major powers!
No, since this competition will open up the permissions of sects, it means that at least 70% to 80% of the hidden sects will flood in.

Since it's in Mingdu, if the Sun Moon Empire makes a move, given their strength, they'll most likely have no chance of escaping. If they also capture one or two top-tier forces... such as Shrek Academy, the Star Luo Empire's royal family, and so on.

It is likely that the entire continent will be rapidly advanced by the Sun and Moon Empire.

After all, the overall strength of the original continent consisted of the Three Kingdoms and Shrek Academy.

Leaving Shrek Academy aside, the Three Kingdoms were jointly constructed by various noble forces, sects deeply rooted in the country, and the royal family of Star Luo City.

Those who can be sent to participate in the competition are naturally the elite of a sect, and there are probably quite a few who are even personally sent by the sect leader.

If these sectarian forces are completely eradicated by the Sun Moon Empire.

Wouldn't that weaken the power of the Three Kingdoms?!
Originally, when the Sun Moon Empire launched its attack, there would inevitably be resistance not only from the core imperial forces but also from local sectarian forces across the continent. However, if things were as Su Wen envisioned... then it would truly be a devastating defeat.

"How insidious the Sun Moon Empire is!" Zhang Lexuan exclaimed angrily.

"If you can't beat them openly, you resort to trickery!"

The problem is that even if you know the inside story, it's difficult to stop this unprecedented conspiracy.

After all, as Shrek Academy, they can't just make things up, and they can't bring up Jing Hongchen's name... He doesn't want the Sun Moon Empire to know that he's still alive.

Are we really just going to stand by and watch this happen?
"No, that's not it." Su Wen shook his head.

"Huh?" Zhang Lexuan asked in surprise.

"The Sun Moon Empire is not incapable of defeating the three kingdoms. With the advanced level of their soul tools, they could easily crush the three kingdoms, and even Shrek Academy, and sweep all the way north. It's just that they want to minimize casualties. They not only want to defeat them, but also to take them into their own hands."

"What?" Zhang Lexuan's pupils suddenly contracted.

If someone else were to say it...

She would probably just scoff, but the person who said that was Su Wen…

"Soul tools, are they really that terrifying?" she asked, somewhat bewildered.

"Yes, that's why I was so eager to use my battle armor to overtake others on the curves," Su Wen sighed softly.

"So that's how it is..." Zhang Lexuan gently patted Su Wen's head with a tender expression. "You've worked hard."

"It's tough, but with my senior sister's comfort, it's not so tough."

Noticing that Su Wen's hands were getting restless again, Zhang Lexuan blushed and got up.

"No! This time, I'm going to take control!"

"Good good..."

……

"Elder, is it really necessary to inform the Sun Moon Empire about Su Wen's matter?"

An old man in black robes pondered for a moment.

"So many powerful figures have died in our Holy Spirit Sect, yet Su Wen has not only survived but has actually grown stronger. If we don't join forces with the Sun Moon Empire to resist him, I'm afraid..."

"No need!"

Ye Xishui said calmly.

"If we tell the Sun Moon Empire, this war probably won't be fought."

"I'm waiting for war to reap souls."

"Besides, what's the use of informing the Sun Moon Empire?"

"If I could kill him the first time with the Light of Death, I can kill him a second time!"

Ye Xishui's eyes gradually turned cold.

"He must die!"
