Give Douluo a technological shock

Summoning her phoenix wings, Ma Xiaotao sped along, quickly flying over Seagod Lake, where several hazy figures appeared on Seagod Island in the distance.

Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao flapped her wings and transformed into a flying rainbow, shooting towards the figure.

"Dean!"

The old man continued drinking his wine, while the man stood respectfully behind him.

"You've arrived! Little one, do you have anything to say?"

Elder Xuan subconsciously looked her over, then focused his gaze on Ma Xiaotao's neck.

He said this was his real graduation achievement.

Although she was a little reluctant, Ma Xiaotao still took off [Nirvana] and handed it to the old man.

"Don't break it, or I'll burn off your whole beard!"

"Hahaha!"

Master Xuan laughed loudly, casually took the Nirvana Ring in his hand, sensed it for a moment, and finally gave up in frustration, asking:

"What is its specific function?"

"Purify the evil fire."

The simple four words reached his ears, startling Elder Xuan so much that his arm stiffened, and he quickly held the ring in his hands, afraid of breaking it.

Ma Xiaotao's martial soul problem had always been a source of worry for him. Now, hearing that such a thorny issue had been solved by a small circular soul tool, he found it all too incredible.

He turned his gaze to the man behind him, who immediately understood.

"Chen Fu often said that low-level soul tools are about pursuing power, while high-level soul tools are about solving problems."

For example, the difference between guns and nuclear weapons: the former causes world turmoil, while the latter brings world peace.

"Elder Xuan, may I examine this soul tool?"

Fan Yu was also shocked. Chen Fu's technical logic was different from his, but it shouldn't be this obvious, right?

"Be careful, don't do anything reckless!"

After all, Fan Yu's soul tool technology is the best here, and he might be able to see something. Elder Xuan had no choice but to carefully hand over the Nirvana Ring to him.

Looking at Elder Xuan, who was tiptoeing around cautiously, Fan Yu felt somewhat helpless. Chen Fu's soul tools were always known for their quality and shouldn't be that fragile.

"Incredible!"

As Fan Yu channeled his spiritual energy along the pathways of his soul power, sensing the densely packed and orderly network of pathways within his spiritual perception, he was truly terrified.

The original Ark allowed him to decipher part of it, but the perfectly formed ring in his hand now leaves him at a loss.

As for forcibly using mental energy to attack, Fan Yu is certain that if he dares to do so, Elder Xuan will definitely go berserk and crush him to death.

The [Lin] symbol on the toroidal surface indicates that Chen Fu used anti-cracking techniques on this soul tool.

Trial and error will burn out the internal circuitry of the soul tool, rendering it unusable.

"That kid is right. We can only learn from his technical logic and then develop and expand our existing soul tools. If we follow his path, we will never be able to surpass him!"

After a long silence, Fan Yu let out a sigh.

"This is different from what you said about him before?"

Elder Xuan looked at Fan Yu. If this wasn't explained clearly, he would definitely make things difficult for the person who had caused him to lose his genius soul tool student.

"Chen Fu's research has always focused on making soul power levelless. If successful, it would cause too much conflict with the soul master system."

"It's the Soul Master Noble System, Teacher Fan Yu, please don't confuse the concept." Ma Xiaotao, who was standing to the side, had heard Chen Fu's ideas before: the expansion of grassroots military power is the decisive force driving civilization forward.

"Okay, even if it's the Soul Master aristocratic system, do you know how many students and teachers at Shrek Academy are born into noble families? At least 80%! Our school itself is an aristocratic school!"

"Including Elder Xuan, Xiao Tao, and the elders behind the Sea God Pavilion, they can all be considered representatives of nobility. Once Chen Fu publishes his research results on the non-ranking system, the consequences will be terrifying!"

Elder Xuan fell silent. He didn't want to see a low-level Soul Master use a level-nine Soul Tool on him.

Shrek Academy's academic nature makes them inclined to protect Chen Fu, but its aristocratic nature makes it difficult for them to accept.

If a low-level Soul Master can defeat a strong one, then can a top-level Soul Master defeat an even stronger one?

Ma Xiaotao broke the silence.

That level, stronger than the top level... it was a terrifying temptation. Elder Xuan shuddered and then came to his senses.

Choosing between vested interests and future interests is undoubtedly difficult.

“Xuanzi, you’re too attached to appearances.”

Chapter 5: Soul Tools Are Not Swords, Spears, or Clubs

“Xuanzi, you’re too attached to appearances.”

A soft voice rang in everyone's ears.

"Mr. Mu!"

"Pavilion Master!"

Everyone immediately stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Stop with the fluff."

A kind-looking elderly man in a wheelchair quietly appeared in everyone's sight.

“I’ve been following that child. He has a strong and high-quality soul, and his personality is quite good. He has high aspirations.”

Looking at the blazing sun burning quietly in the distance, the old man continued:

"When did Shrek Academy become a noble force? Although we have trained many nobles, Shrek is first and foremost an academy."

“Xuanzi, what use is your noble status? And Fan boy, you too. Nobles need Shrek Academy, but Shrek Academy doesn’t need nobles.”

The old man basked in the warm sunshine, feeling just like when he last met that little guy…

"Excuse me, sir, could you move aside? I need to get some books from over there."

An elderly man sunbathing in the corridor on the top floor of the library was interrupted by a teenager.

Don't you know how to respect the elderly and care for the young?

"I waited for half an hour but you still didn't wake up."

"Oh..." Upon hearing this, the old man moved his chair away. His breathing was so weak that he hadn't even noticed. He wouldn't sleep in the aisle next time.

"By the way, you're a second-year student, right?" The boy was wearing a second-year school uniform.

The boy pointed to his clothes, but didn't answer. He went to get the book he needed.

"The Secret of Martial Soul True Body? Why is the little guy interested in this?"

The old man was intrigued by the fact that the young man had just broken through to the Great Soul Master realm, yet he was so ambitious.

"Everyone's evaluation of the Martial Soul True Form is that it provides an all-around boost, but I think that statement is wrong."

"Oh? Why do you see it?"

After glancing at the author of the book, who was from a long time ago, the old man began to examine the boy more closely.

"Mentally, the Martial Soul True Body can still enhance the physical body's mental resistance and perception, but there is one state that is not enhanced."

"What is it?"

The old man smiled and covered his eyes.

"intelligence."

The boy pointed to his head. "This is a very serious question. In most people's subconscious, intelligence is not considered strength."

"The power that Title Douluos are so proud of does not include intelligence, which is quite pathetic."

The old man couldn't help but laugh at the thought of a group of spirited Title Douluos turning out to be a bunch of idiots.

How does a fire-attribute soul master obtain fire?

"Ignite it with soul power."

"Other than that?"

The old man was stumped by the question. He didn't answer with "soul tool," because a soul tool still requires soul power.

"How can you start a fire without using soul power?"

The old man wanted to answer, but after thinking for a moment, he finally shook his head.

The boy took out two stones from his spatial bracelet.

Click!

Sparks flew as the stones collided.

"Someone discovered that certain stones could produce sparks when struck together, and then quickly told others, so soon everyone knew how to make fire."

"Some people have discovered that fire-attribute soul power can be used to create fire, but ultimately only fire-attribute soul masters can do it."

"...What do you mean?" The old man fell into deep thought.
