Douluo Continent II: You're an evil spirit master, but also a philanthropist?

A leader can never make a mistake, and as a subordinate, he understood this perfectly.

Soon, the surrounding area calmed down layer by layer.

The Soul Masters who came to help also left as if nothing had happened.

Inside Mingde Hall.

Old Cheng examined a small, neatly carved piece of metal, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"I'm certain that the damaged area of ​​this dagger that day was definitely within the core formation; there's no way I could be wrong. But now it seems that the core formation has been modified. Could it be..."

"It's him."

Jing Hongchen looked shocked, as if she had not yet recovered from what had just happened.

“I’ve been keeping an eye on this lately, including the books he’s borrowed and the data from the experimental area. I was quite surprised by the direction of his research; he seemed to have figured it out on his own. Even the core students in Mingde Hall probably couldn’t have found the right direction in such a short time…”

“Looking at the core of the link, including the carving of the sealing formation, although there is a sense of immaturity, it also confirms that it was indeed done by that kid. After all, if a high-level soul master who has already established a system wants to pretend to be a low-level soul master to carve, with our level, we will definitely be able to see through his forgery.”

"Then there's only one possible outcome."

Cheng Baiqing's heart was filled with turmoil.

The two looked at each other.

"This kid really repaired this soul tool, and it only took him a month..."

"Born to be a soul tool."

At this moment.

Even Jing Hongchen had the thought of taking on a disciple.

There's no way around it; once you miss out on a genius of this caliber, you're probably never going to encounter one again...

Chapter 20 Laughing at the World, Discussing Geniuses Over Wine

"Forget about it, I want this child."

Cheng Baiqing said with a smile.

"To be honest, I have never taken on a disciple in my life. This is my first disciple and also my last disciple. If you dare to take it, don't blame me for turning against you."

"Hehe, why would I compete with you for someone?"

Jing Hongchen readily agreed and quickly said so.

In terms of strength, he is indeed stronger than this person.

However, while strength is one aspect of the Sun Moon Empire, the scientific and academic community is also crucial.

Cheng Baiqing, second only to Kong Lao in seniority in the Sun Moon Empire, is a level 92 Title Douluo, but he has devoted himself to scientific research and is one of the few level 9 Soul Masters in the Sun Moon Empire.

His talent in scientific research far surpasses that of others.

It encompasses almost the entire Sun and Moon Empire, and all current front-end research.

This includes, but is not limited to, [Mech Soul Guidance], [Soul Guidance Monitoring Core], [Level 9 Fixed-Equipment Soul Guidance Cannon], etc.

He often reads the books on soul guidance, the core theories of soul guidance he proposed, and his vision for the future of soul guidance, and he has benefited greatly from them.

For the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire, their names were legendary.

His appeal is terrifying, with countless followers.

Even the countless high-ranking Soul Masters on the front lines mostly grew up reading the textbooks he compiled.

Even after reaching the Mingde Hall and becoming a high-level Soul Master, one still cannot escape the books written by others when researching topics.

In other words, this is someone he really can't afford to offend...

Even his own teacher, Kong Deming, the pillar of the Sun Moon Empire, treated him with utmost respect.

That kid is really lucky.

Everyone in the mortal world envies her.

Gaining this person's approval and having them declare they would be accepted as a disciple would be enough for that kid to make a fortune just from their reputation.

After this, the struggle for the throne in the capital will likely become even more intense.

He should also consider it...

……

Soul Guidance Device Trial Grounds.

The venue can accommodate nearly 10,000 people and is the largest building in the entire college.

The seats are arranged in a circle, going upwards.

It was midday, and the weather was hot.

However, countless royal students from the Sun Moon Empire continued to enter, forming a dense, dark mass as they walked towards their seats.

Even as the seats were almost full, the flow of people showed no signs of stopping.

Many people, even if they were crowded in the aisle, were unwilling to leave.

There's no other reason than that the afternoon is the time for the new level assessment.

Among the new students being assessed are two genius siblings, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen.

It's not just because they both have high social status and good looks, but mainly because of Xiao Hongchen, the so-called once-in-a-millennium genius soul master.

What kind of dominance will it display?

"Brother Cheng."

Meng Hongchen's eyes curved into crescent moons as she looked at Xu Cheng beside Xiao Hongchen, perfectly concealing her older brother.

It was as if there was only one person in the world.

"Dream……"

Xu Cheng smiled and nodded.

This little girl is indeed extremely obsessed with looks, but she's also strangely devoted to one person.

In the original novel, after first meeting Wang Dong, she was instantly captivated. There were other handsome men who were comparable to Wang Dong, but she couldn't give them a second glance. She was completely infatuated with him, her mind completely clouded by pure love...

Xiao Hongchen's lips twitched.

Their bodies separated their gazes.

He stubbornly ignored his sister's angry gaze and looked nonchalantly into the arena.

"Hey, who do you think will be the last one standing in this assessment?"

Xu Cheng remained silent.

Seeing this, Xiao Hongchen put his hands behind his back.

It has a graceful and ethereal feel to it.

His voice was full of emotion.

"Look at the horizon, doesn't it look like a dragon soaring? And those clouds, don't they look like signs of the sea emerging?"

Xu Cheng was stunned.

Something seems off.

Xiao Hongchen glanced around the new level, his expression calm and indifferent.

He finally spoke again.

"Cheng, do you know who among the royal academy students of the Sun Moon Empire is a genius?"

Xu Cheng: “…”

Xu Cheng did not answer.

Xiao Hongchen continued nonchalantly, "In my opinion, among these students, only you and I can be called geniuses!"

Xu Cheng: “…”

You bastard, you're discussing heroes over wine!

Blanch!

"Brother, you're still lacking. In my opinion, the real genius is still Brother Cheng." Meng Hongchen added fuel to the fire.

Seeing Xiao's hurt expression, Xu Cheng smiled helplessly.

They have to be siblings.

"Heh, him? He dares to call himself a hero?"

A sinister voice came from behind.

Everyone frowned and looked over.

A boy, also wearing a first-year school uniform, was staring at Xu Cheng with disdain.

He had dark skin, which was mostly a symbol of nobility in the Sun Moon Empire. He had short brown hair, a strong build, and his arms were crossed over his chest. There were several lackeys around him, who were also first-year students.
