Douluo: My Clone Simulates the Star God.

Chapter 123 A Lesson for New Students

"Welcome to Douluo Peace Academy! You must be among the first batch of students we've enrolled since its founding, right?"

"Please don't be nervous. Although you may not know much about us, I'm sure you're familiar with our predecessor... That's right, it was the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy!"

A teacher from Douluo Peace Academy stood on the podium, smiling as he looked at the students below.

As he said, these were the first batch of students enrolled after the establishment of the new academy, so it was natural to give a proper introduction to the characteristics of the new academy.

"The technology we possess ranks among the best even on the entire Douluo Continent!"

"I believe you students will be able to see this on your way to the academy."

Unlike Shrek Academy, Douluo Peace Academy is filled with high-rise buildings with impressive technology, which look very impressive.

In the past, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy would have given people the impression of being all bark and no bite, but now, the Douluo Peace Academy, whether it is the dean or the teachers, is full of confidence.

Even though most of the people are the same group as before, why do they feel different?

"Therefore, the first lesson we teach our students at Douluo Peace Academy is... science and technology are the primary productive forces!"

"Of course, many students will not understand what I'm saying, but please don't be nervous. You will see for yourselves what I just meant!"

"Come with me!"

On the first day of school, after the opening ceremony, the first thing the students of Douluo Peace Academy did was not to learn knowledge or do physical training, but simply to be taken to see something…

This left many students wondering what the college was planning to do. However, the teacher at the front quickly provided the answer.

"Are you wondering why we're doing this on the first day of school?"

"Of course, it's because the changes on the mainland have been so rapid lately, so rapid that even we humans are finding it hard to keep up..."

"Therefore, in order to let students understand the recent changes that have taken place on the continent, we have specially partnered with the Douluo Peace Company to allow you to see the things that will determine the future of the continent!"

At this point, the teacher deliberately kept everyone in suspense, not directly saying what the students would observe later, but instead asking a question.

"Do you think the identity of a Soul Master will still be important in the future wars of Douluo Continent?"

"Of course it's important!"

Without any hesitation, all the students gave the same answer at that moment.

"That's right, being a Soul Master is very important, because no matter what we do, we must have 'Soul Power' as a prerequisite. If we don't have enough Soul Power, we can't do many things, but..."

"Are Soul Masters really that important?"

The teacher said this with a smile on her face, but then she changed the subject and said something that left all the students scratching their heads.

"Let's take a look at this so-called 'future of mainland China'!"

As the teacher's voice stopped, the group arrived in front of a large door. Unlike the high-tech doors they had seen along the way, this door was rather simple in its construction…

It looks like a factory? Does this have anything to do with the future of mainland China?

Boom! Boom!

The loud noise echoed in the ears of all the students, and at that moment the door in front of them opened to all of them.

"This is?!"

"They actually have something like this in the academy?"

"So it really is a factory!"

Huge mechanical parts came into everyone's view. Just as the students had said, this was a factory, a factory that manufactured something!

This scene caught the attention of all the students. What exactly did this factory produce that made the teacher say such an exaggerated thing as "the future of mainland China"?

But when they followed the teacher up to take a look, they discovered that what was being made inside were just some small machines.

It looks somewhat like a flying soul tool, but the soul power fluctuations emanating from it are extremely low, and it would be difficult to detect without careful observation.

Seeing this, many students were greatly disappointed, feeling that the teachers of Douluo Peace Academy must be lying, since any one of them could easily kill dozens of the things produced in this factory.

"Don't rush. Remember the question I asked earlier? Are Soul Masters really that important?"

"If war breaks out again in the Douluo Continent in the future, will Soul Masters really be sent to the battlefield?"

"Is that necessarily true?"

In the past, Soul Masters were the mainstream profession in Douluo Continent. Whether you wanted to become a Soul Master or a Battle Armor Master, you needed a foundation of Soul Power, which is why Soul Masters have always existed.

Even on the battlefield, a Soul Master must personally take action.

However, now that a machine has suddenly appeared that can directly extract and store soul power from the air, the necessity of soul masters has been completely eliminated.

Things that were once only possible for Soul Masters can now be done even by ordinary people without Soul Power.

Douluo Peace Company also discovered this and, combining it with the assembly line forging technology they had previously used, completely completed this major project.

That's an assembly line factory!

As long as you have the materials, you can continuously manufacture powerful weapons. Even ordinary people without soul power can operate these machines to manufacture them.

With the assembly line in place, the factory can produce weapons day and night, especially drones, which can be produced in the millions every day! Even if the power is weak, the sheer number is enough to overwhelm anyone!

Moreover, is its power constant? With future advancements in technology, its power will only increase!

What does this mean?

On the battlefields of the future, human figures are gradually becoming blurred, replaced by battles between machines!

Humans may no longer need to go to the battlefield, so the identity of a Soul Master has become less important.

It wasn't until the teacher explained this point that all the students understood what the machine in front of them meant.

Countless such unassuming factories can be built easily, and the things they produce are as numerous as hairs on a cow!

Even if a factory is destroyed, so what?

Rebuilding them would be so easy; they'd only keep multiplying!

"These are the things that can have a profound impact on the future of the mainland... and they are all brought about by science and technology!"

That's why I say science and technology are the primary productive forces!
