Transmigrating into Douluo Continent: I Am a Master

"Alright, let's get down to business." Yan Shaozhe released Zhang Mo's hand. "My disciple just had a problem with his cultivation and accidentally injured two outer court disciples."

"I plan to have you appease these two students, since you've been mentoring a freshman class this semester. And to make it up to them. I hope they'll keep quiet about what happened today." Yan Shaozhe took out two exquisite little boxes from his jacket pocket and opened one of them.

It was round and plump, about the size of a walnut, and emerald green in color, with a faint glow around it, and a fragrant aroma of medicine.

"This is... a Soul Ascension Pill?" Putting aside the fact that Zhang Mo already knew that the academy's compensation was a Soul Ascension Pill, Zhang Mo had also learned about pills and other related knowledge from Douluo Continent while preparing for the Master Cup.

"The academy is making such a big move? What exactly happened?" Zhang Mo asked, feigning ignorance and frowning.

"Zhang Mo, you..."

Du Weilun stood up, intending to stop Zhang Mo from continuing to pry into the academy's secrets, but Yan Shaozhe raised his hand to signal Du Weilun to stop talking.

"Speaking of which, I'd also like to ask Teacher Zhang Mo about this. Do you know anything about... the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul?"

……

Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao woke up one after the other in their dormitory beds. Wang Dong, still with his usual irritable personality, asked, "What exactly happened? What kind of monster attacked us?"

Hearing the two wake up, the door creaked open and a very young man walked into the dormitory, followed by a middle-aged man in white.

"Hello, you two little ones, especially you, it's good to see you again." The young man pointed at Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao looked at the familiar older brother in front of him and said, "It's you, big brother. What a coincidence."

"Huo Yuhao, do you know him?" Wang Dong quickly asked.

"Well, I've run into him before, once the day before school started and again yesterday after school. This is the third time I've met him..." Huo Yuhao paused for a moment, unsure of the person's identity.

Although he was wearing the same teacher's uniform, could there really be such a young teacher? He didn't seem to be more than a few years older than Senior Brother Bei Bei. Could he be a senior student from the Inner Academy? But senior students from the Inner Academy should be wearing red uniforms.

"Teacher Zhang, time..." Teacher Li, who had come with Zhang Mo, was about to say something when Zhang Mo raised his hand to signal him to shut up.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhang Mo, and I am currently the deputy director of the Martial Soul Department." Zhang Mo scratched his head and introduced himself cheerfully.

"Deputy Director of the Martial Soul Department!" Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong exclaimed in unison.

Their homeroom teacher, Zhou Yi, is a six-ring Soul Emperor. Could it be that this young deputy director has an even higher Soul Power level? This is unheard of in the Douluo Continent.

Zhang Mo naturally saw the thoughts and anxieties on the two children's faces.

"My soul power is only level 31. I was appointed as the deputy director of the Martial Soul Department because of some of my other abilities."

Upon hearing this, Huo and Wang's faces were filled with disbelief, and Zhang Mo found their expressions extremely amusing.

"Alright, let's get down to business. The academy sent me here in the hope that you can forget what happened earlier, and this is the academy's sincerity and compensation to you."

Zhang Mo took out the two brocade boxes from his pocket and handed them to the two men. He then used his soul power to open the boxes for them.

"This... what is this?" Wang Dong looked at the contents of the box with great surprise.

"Oh, it seems there are still people who recognize talent. I'm relieved then." Zhang Mo stood up. "The academy has already granted you two leave for the morning. Zhou Yi won't make things difficult for you, but you must attend your afternoon classes properly."

"Remember, remember, don't tell anyone what happened this morning."

After saying that, Zhang Mo and Teacher Li walked out of their dormitory. After leaving the dormitory building, Zhang Mo nodded to Old Mu, who was sunbathing nearby, and then followed Teacher Li away.

When the two arrived at the shore of Poseidon Lake, Yan Shaozhe was already waiting for them there.

"Is everything taken care of?"

"Yes, those are Soul-Ascending Pills. I believe they won't do anything rash, and besides, they didn't suffer any fatal injuries," Zhang Mo said slowly.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Teacher Li. You can go ahead and get back to work. Teacher Zhang, let's go."

After saying this, Yan Shaozhe picked up Zhang Mo before he could react and flew towards the island in the center of Poseidon Lake.

Zhang Mo had never experienced being an aerial acrobat before, and his heart jumped into his throat in an instant.

"Dean Yan, I understand your eagerness to help your student, and we can't be in a rush. The main problem is that I'm afraid of heights!"

Yan Shaozhe ignored Zhang Mo and instead sped up.

"Ahhhhh—"

Today, everyone who was strolling along the shore of Poseidon Lake without classes heard a strange shout. Some people said it was the sound of inner court disciples cultivating.

Yan Shaozhe flew very fast, and arrived at the island in the middle of the lake in less than half an incense stick's time. Yan Shaozhe gently put Zhang Mo on the ground, but Zhang Mo could not stand up. His legs trembled uncontrollably when he landed on the ground. He rolled on the ground twice and then faced the sky, panting heavily.

But then, a different feeling arose spontaneously, and soul power suddenly burst forth from Zhang Mo's body.

"This, this is? I've broken through?" Zhang Mo said in surprise.

"Haha, I noticed long ago that your soul power was very strong, just a hair's breadth away from breaking through, so I used this method to stimulate you a little." Yan Shaozhe laughed happily.

"Couldn't we have used a more respectable method?" Zhang Mo couldn't help but mutter to himself.

He could only clasp his hands in thanks and say, "Thank you, Dean Yan. Let's go see your beloved student quickly."

Yan Shaozhe stroked his beard and led Zhang Mo to the secret room where Ma Xiaotao was unconscious. Just as the two entered, Ma Xiaotao woke up.

"Teacher."

She quickly removed her mask, revealing a beauty that could bring ruin to a country, coupled with a stunningly sexy figure. For a moment, even Zhang Mo was stunned.

"Ahem." Zhang Mo only came back to his senses after hearing Yan Shaozhe's slightly dissatisfied cough.

"Teacher, who is this...?"

"This is a new teacher at the college who has made significant contributions to theoretical studies."

"Teacher, I don't feel hot anymore. I feel like my inner fire has been suppressed," Ma Xiaotao quickly said to Yan Shaozhe.

Yan Shaozhe sighed softly and said in a deep voice, "An extremely strong ice-attribute soul power surged into your body, clearing away the evil fire within you, but we investigated it."

"One of the students was a work-study student from the Tang Sect, and the other came from a major sect, but neither of them had any background related to ice-attribute martial souls."

"Let me take a look," Zhang Mo interjected at the opportune moment.

"Alright, alright, let's see if there's any chance of things turning around." Yan Shaozhe seemed to be grasping at straws in desperation.

Zhang Mo pretended to grab Ma Xiaotao's wrist, but Ma Xiaotao never allowed any man other than her teacher to act so boldly towards her.

"You lecherous scoundrel..."

"Xiao Tao!" Yan Shaozhe called out, and Ma Xiao Tao pouted and looked at Yan Shaozhe with a wronged expression before stopping her resistance.

Seeing that Ma Xiaotao had calmed down, Zhang Mo closed his eyes and channeled a surge of soul power into Ma Xiaotao's meridians.
