Douluo Continent: Conflict descends, gods are slain and gods ascend!

"What a promising talent!" Mu Ye exclaimed again after probing Yun Chen's body with his soul power for a full cycle.

But then, Mu Ye became puzzled: "But your martial spirit..."

Using the secret techniques of the Body Sect, he carefully examined Yun Chen's condition. On his way to the East Sea, he had been pondering whether blood could truly be considered a human organ.

At that time, he wondered if Yun Chen's martial soul was actually his heart, the blood-producing organ within his body? Was it simply mistaken for blood because of its different manifestation? But when he actually met Yun Chen, he discovered that it didn't seem to be like that. Yun Chen's martial soul wasn't just as simple as blood. His entire body seemed to have the potential to become his true martial soul.

"How is this possible?" Mu Ye was very surprised, because Yun Chen's situation was remarkably similar to the original body of a martial soul. However, the original martial soul is a single entity, while Yun Chen's body was like a rough, unpolished piece of jade. His entire body possessed the potential to become an independent martial soul!?

"Could it be that this child..." A thought suddenly arose in Mu Ye's mind, and he once again probed Yun Chen's body with his soul power. This time, he probed more carefully and cautiously. A moment later, Mu Ye suddenly opened his eyes.

At this moment, Mu Ye looked at Yun Chen as if he were looking at a precious treasure. The last time he showed such a look was when he saw his eldest disciple, Aruheng!

"His qi and blood are so solid without any tempering, and his meridians are as clear as crystal. His bones and muscles are perfectly coordinated. He is simply a perfect gem bestowed by heaven!" Mu Ye exclaimed in surprise.

Mu Chen, standing to the side, also became serious. He hadn't initially taken Mu Ye's arrival too seriously. But now, something seemed amiss. His gaze towards Yun Chen shifted. Could this kid be hiding some secret?

It's no wonder Mu Ye was so surprised. Although Soul Masters with their own Martial Souls will naturally grow and develop in the most suitable way during their growth and cultivation, Yun Chen's situation clearly exceeded the limits of natural growth. It was as if a renowned master was constantly adjusting his cultivation direction and strictly controlling his physical growth.

Even if Makino himself did it, he probably couldn't do it this perfectly. It's as if this child was born to stand at the pinnacle of the original martial soul.

"How is this possible?" This was the thought that filled Makino's mind, but the next moment he took out his soul communication device and dialed a number.

A moment later, the call connected. Before he could speak, Mu Ye blurted out, "Uncle-Master, Uncle-Master! I've found a gem, an even purer gem than that boy Heng! I'll take him in. Thank you for the information, Uncle-Master. I'll cook you a big meal next time!"

Without waiting for a reply, Mu Ye hung up the soul communication. Then, he crushed it, completely cutting off any possibility of the other party calling back.

This scene stunned everyone in the office, especially Tang Wulin, who felt that the way he looked at Mu Ye was a little strange.

"Little guy, do you know about the Body Sect?" Mu Ye composed himself and returned to his serious demeanor.

"I know." Yun Chen nodded: "My teacher who taught me body cultivation once mentioned the Body Sect."

"You've already become an apprentice?" Mu Ye's heart sank, and he hurriedly asked.

Yun Chen shook her head: "No, it was a private tutor that my family hired."

Hearing Yun Chen say this, Mu Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief. He would be incredibly frustrated if such a genius were taken as a disciple by someone else. After all, lineage is highly valued in the Douluo Continent.

"Then would you be willing to join the Body Sect and cultivate with me?" Mu Ye asked.

"I do," Yun Chen nodded.

From the moment his Martial Soul awakened, Yun Chen had been considering his future path. The Body Sect was one of his options. Moreover, judging from Mu Ye's current state, it seemed his Martial Soul was not as simple as it appeared. If that was the case, then joining the Body Sect was currently the best choice.

"But I've already joined the Spirit Pagoda, so what if..." Before Makino could respond, Yun Chen revealed that he had joined the Spirit Pagoda.

"The Spirit Pagoda?" Mu Ye was taken aback for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "It's alright, your grandmaster will handle it."

Hearing Mu Ye say this, Yun Chen breathed a sigh of relief. In the Dou San Era, the path for rogue cultivators was extremely difficult. Therefore, he accepted the olive branch that Leng Yaozhu had extended without hesitation.

If you miss the opportunity to join the Body Sect for this reason, whether you regret it or not, you will definitely feel helpless.

"Old Mu, can I borrow the kitchen of your East China Sea Blacksmith Association for a bit? I have to show off my skills to my new apprentice." Mu Ye was overjoyed to have accepted Yun Chen as his apprentice. He turned to Mu Chen and said.

"Alright, alright, I'll have someone take you there." Mu Chen was also a bit confused by Mu Ye, so he called his secretary over and asked her to take Mu Ye to the kitchen.

After Mu Ye left, he turned his gaze to Yun Chen. It wasn't that he was blind, but rather that he couldn't see anything special about Yun Chen.

"An unpolished gem? Isn't Mu Ye exaggerating a bit?" Mu Chen thought to himself.

About two hours later, a large table in Mu Chen's small restaurant was filled with delicious food.

It's important to know that the food Mu Ye makes is packed with nutrition and energy. Even Zhen Hua, that master craftsman, is lucky if he can eat two dishes and a bowl of rice in one meal. A table full of food like this is quite rare. Therefore, it's clear how satisfied he is with Yun Chen.

Mu Xi and Mu Chen were also invited to join the meal. As for Tang Wulin, he was sent back to Donghai Academy by Mu Chen shortly after Mu Ye went to cook. Originally, he had intended to investigate Yun Chen and Tang Wulin's forging talents, but Mu Ye's arrival had disrupted that, and Mu Chen had lost interest.

At the dinner table, Mu Ye barely touched his chopsticks, just staring at Yun Chen. His expression made Mu Chen burst out laughing.

"Muye, stop looking at him like a pervert. He's your apprentice now, what difference does it make when you look at him like that?" Mu Chen teased.

"Don't interrupt, you don't know anything!" Makino said irritably.

"I'm thinking about what kind of training plan to devise for him. He has such good talent; we can't let it go to waste!"

These words made Yun Chen, who was struggling with a crab leg, look up: "Um, teacher, I'm still in school. Should I drop out and leave with you?"
