Douluo Continent: Targeted Thoughts, Winning Over Bibi Dong at the Start

The next morning, two people stood side by side outside the main gate of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

The person on the left looks to be around thirty years old. He is tall and slender with a handsome face and fair skin. He wears a pair of soul-guided crystal goggles, and his eyes behind the lenses are sharp and deep, as if they can see through the essence of everything.

He was wearing a deep purple, gold-trimmed researcher's robe from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, with the Sun Moon Empire's national emblem embroidered on his chest. He was none other than Xuan Ziwen, the chief researcher of Mingde Hall and Kong Deming's prized student.

The man on the right is a bit older, around fifty years old, slightly overweight, with a kind face and a professional smile that always graces his lips.

He was wearing an academy classroom uniform with an academic badge pinned to his chest; he was none other than Lin Jiayi, the academic director of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Both of them only learned of the shocking news last night.

The empire has recruited a level 97 Spirit-type Title Douluo, who possesses combat power comparable to a level 98 Super Douluo.

This grandson of the Super Douluo is also a spirit-type soul master. At only twelve years old, he has already reached the Soul King level, making him a peerless genius.

The twelve-year-old Soul King.

When Xuan Ziwen heard about this soul power level, his first reaction was disbelief.

He has seen far too many so-called geniuses.

Every year, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy recruits a group of young geniuses from all over the continent, including many promising talents who break through to the Soul Master level at the age of fourteen or fifteen.

But a twelve-year-old Soul King? That goes beyond the category of "genius" and belongs to the level of a prodigy.

What Xuan Ziwen cared about even more was the martial spirit of this grandfather and grandson, the Illusionary Eye.

Mental-type martial souls are rare to begin with, and pupil-type martial souls are even more unusual among mental-type martial souls, belonging to the category of body-type martial souls. The owners of these martial souls often possess extraordinary perception abilities and mental attack methods, giving them a unique advantage in the field of soul masters.

Because what a Soul Master needs most is precise control of mental energy.

"Brother Xuan, what exactly is the background of this Illusionary Eye Douluo's grandson?" Lin Jiayi asked in a low voice, his tone tinged with curiosity. "A twelve-year-old Soul King—such talent is extremely rare, even at Shrek Academy, right?"

Xuan Ziwen pushed up his glasses and said calmly, "His background isn't important. What's important is that the teacher personally instructed that this genius should be given the green light from all sides."

Lin Jiayi gave a wry smile: "Of course I know that. The dean called me over last night and repeatedly told me to make sure I handled this matter properly. To be honest, in all my years at the academy, this is the first time I've seen the dean so nervous."

"How can I not be nervous?" Xuan Ziwen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile. "The grandson of a level 97 mental super Douluo wants to join our academy to learn soul tools. If this matter is messed up, not only the dean, but the entire upper echelon of the empire will be furious."

Lin Jiayi nodded in deep agreement.

Although he was not qualified to attend last night's imperial meeting, the message had already spread throughout the academy's senior management through various channels.

It is said that His Majesty personally made the final decision, Elder Kong personally drafted the Martial Soul Contract, and Venerable Ye Yulin personally ran errands and facilitated the deal. Such treatment is unprecedented in the entire Sun Moon Empire.

As they were talking, two figures appeared at the end of the street in the distance.

An old man and a young man, the old man lean and vigorous, the young man with clear features, were none other than Huan Shen and Qin Heng.

The two walked unhurriedly toward the academy gate, their steps relaxed and their expressions composed, as if they were just an ordinary grandfather and grandson going out for a stroll.

Xuan Ziwen and Lin Jiayi exchanged a glance and went to meet them at the same time.

"Junior Xuan Ziwen greets Your Majesty Huan Tong." Xuan Ziwen bowed respectfully, his tone neither humble nor arrogant. "My master, Kong Deming, specially ordered me to come and welcome Your Majesty and your grandson."

"Junior Lin Jiayi, as the Academic Director of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, greets Your Majesty Huan Tong." Lin Jiayi also bowed, his smile growing even warmer. "Your grandson's enrollment procedures have all been completed, and he can enroll at any time."

The phantom stopped, and the vertical eye between its brows slightly opened, its eerie light sweeping over the two of them.

Xuan Ziwen felt an invisible force sweep over him, as if he had been seen through from head to toe by a pair of all-seeing eyes, with even the slightest traces of his soul power being exposed.

He couldn't help but feel a chill. Was this the terror of level 98 mental power? Just a casual glance was enough to make this level 8 Soul Master feel a sense of unease.

"Master Kong is very kind." Huan Shen nodded slightly, his aged voice carrying a hint of satisfaction. "I entrust my grandson to you two."

After saying that, he turned around and looked at Qin Heng beside him.

Today, Qin Heng changed into a blue robe in the style of the Sun Moon Empire, and his hair was also tied up in the popular style of the Sun Moon Empire, making him look like an ordinary young man from the Sun Moon Empire.

"Heng'er!" The illusory figure reached out and patted Qin Heng's shoulder in a pretentious manner, his tone full of affection and expectation. "This is all Grandpa can do for you. Once you enter the academy, you must listen to your teachers and study the knowledge of soul tools diligently. Remember, you are carrying not only your own future, but also the hope of our clan."

Qin Heng lowered his head, his voice choked with emotion: "Grandpa, rest assured, your grandson will certainly live up to your expectations."

The two actors, one old and one young, displayed superb acting skills and worked together seamlessly, leaving Xuan Ziwen and Lin Jiayi, who were watching nearby, deeply impressed.

What a wonderful grandfather! For his grandson's future, he didn't hesitate to swear allegiance to the Sun Moon Empire with his martial spirit.

What a sensible grandson! At such a young age, he already knows how to shoulder the family's hopes and aspire to become a great person.
