Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 269 Reason
"What did you say?" Orange's expression changed slightly, as if she had thought of something.

Lin Xiao also paused slightly, somewhat surprised that something that was almost common sense to him would elicit such a strong reaction from Ju Zi.

However, upon closer examination, high-altitude exploration soul tools have only been around for a short time. Before that, neither the three great empires nor the Sun Moon Empire recognized the advantages of soul tools in terms of range, and they had no idea where the real advantages of soul tools lay.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiao didn't hide anything. "Since the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Corps has the ability to launch attacks from high altitudes, wouldn't it be better to use their abilities to accurately target the opponent's weak points with high-altitude soul guidance devices?"

"Moreover, the function of soul tools is not limited to killing. Transmission soul tools can make the cooperation between different teams closer, so that all soul master corps are like a whole, instead of fighting individually."

"I haven't commanded many wars. These ideas are just my considerations from the perspective of a Soul Master. You should be more adept than me at how to implement them."

Ju Zi didn't speak, she just nodded slightly. She didn't need Lin Xiao to remind her much; just one thought was enough to make countless ideas pop into her mind.

Perhaps in the upcoming continental war, not only will the three great empires see the extent to which soul tools can be developed, but they will also see entirely new tactics that have never been seen before when combined with soul tools.

These are things that cannot be compensated for by the development of soul tools alone.

The aerial battle continued. This was not the first time the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentorship had experienced such training. Only through constant honing could their weapons remain sharp.

Fengshen would occasionally offer some pointers. Some problems were imperceptible to the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Team, but were particularly obvious to the ninth-level Soul Masters. In particular, Fengshen had commanded Lin Xiao's array of floating cannons in battle more than once, and was quite experienced in commanding troops.

Ju Zi seemed to have put aside what had just happened, and simply instructed the others to write down what Fengshen had proposed.

"If you were to appear on the battlefield, you would probably be an excellent general."

"Perhaps." Lin Xiao glanced at Feng Shen beside him, "But I have no interest in becoming a famous general."

“But once the great war begins, some things are ultimately unavoidable.” Orange led Lin Xiao forward. “The Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Corps is stationed here not only to prevent border threats, but also for another duty.”

"There are less than six months until the Elite Competition, and the news that sects are allowed to participate has already spread. Some sects have always disliked the academy's teaching methods, so I estimate that quite a few of them will come this time."

"Once the competition officially begins, the four Beast King-level Soul Master Corps, including the Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps, will surround Mingdu together with other armies. Your people will also be involved then."

"It would be difficult to use these people to make the three great empires hesitate to act, wouldn't it?" Although he had known about the Sun Moon Empire's plans for a long time, the people who were originally captured by the Sun Moon Empire were later rescued, and Lin Xiao didn't know how useful these captured people were.

"That's hard to say, but at the very least it will reduce the resistance of the three great empires. Alright, that's about enough training for today."

As soon as Ju Zi finished speaking, the roaring sound in the air immediately subsided, showing that she was quite familiar with the training process.

"You should go back first. News from Mingde Hall should arrive soon, and you should be able to return tomorrow."

"Okay." Lin Xiao nodded, and without lingering, quickly left.

Orange stood there watching his departing figure until he completely disappeared, then suddenly raised her hand and called an old woman nearby to her side.

"You must immediately return to Mingdu to see His Highness and tell him..."

"Master, what do you mean by this?"

Inside Mingde Hall, Lin Jiayi looked at Jing Hongchen with some curiosity. Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen stood up and waved his hand, "Just like I said, it's just a simple friendly exchange match to see how much they've actually learned in the past two years at my Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy."

"But there are some rare metals in the rewards. What if our people are defeated..." Lin Jiayi was still a little worried.

"It's alright. Mingde Hall isn't lacking in these things now. If we don't actually offer something, how will we know if the people from Shrek Academy have done their best?"

Lin Jiayi was speechless for a moment upon hearing this. Jing Hongchen was right. Since the alloy smelting experiment was started two years ago, dozens of new alloys have been discovered in less than a year, which can replace some rare metals in the use of soul tools on a large scale.

Recently, Mingdetang has shifted its focus from smelting to development, attempting to apply various alloys to various applications.

Moreover, despite this, one or two new materials appear from time to time, and some Soul Masters have even managed to mix three or more materials.

"Yes, Master, I'll go find Fan Yu and inform him."

"Yes." Jing Hongchen nodded. "Pay special attention to those two students who are about to participate in the Soul Fighting Tournament."

"Although we won the last Soul Fighting Tournament, that was just taking advantage of someone else's misfortune. This year's team is Shrek Academy's true peak. It's not bad that they can help our people gather some intelligence in advance."

"Yes, Master, I will be careful."

Just as Lin Jiayi finished speaking, the voice transmission device on Jing Hongchen's table suddenly rang.

“I am Jing Hongchen.” Jing Hongchen glanced at Lin Jiayi, walked to the side and answered, “Yes… that’s right… it is indeed a mission from Mingde Hall. Tell him to come back as soon as possible.”

"Hall Master?" Lin Jiayi asked with a questioning look.

"Look, speaking of materials, the great contributor to the transformation of our Mingde Hall is coming back." Jing Hongchen smiled.

"You mean... Lin Xiao?" Lin Jiayi asked tentatively.

"good."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiayi's expression changed slightly. "Sect Leader, what's the attitude of the sect towards Lin Xiao..."

Although Lin Jiayi, as Lin Xiao's teacher, was happy to see Lin Xiao being given important responsibilities by Mingdetang, Lin Xiao's identity was sensitive, and Jing Hongchen's attitude towards Lin Xiao still made him somewhat uneasy.

Jing Hongchen seemed to understand what Lin Jiayi was thinking, "Do you think your disciple is a fool?"

"Of course not."

"Then he naturally understands how the alloy changes the Soul Master." Jing Hongchen patted Lin Jiayi's shoulder meaningfully. "Then why did we get information about the alloy from him, and not from the Holy Spirit Cult?"

"Master, you mean..."

Jing Hongchen shook his head and turned to leave the room.
