Inside the classroom, Ladio was about to give a lesson to the students.

Having learned from previous experiences, the classroom content has become more procedural.

Ladio first critiqued the students' work, then provided instruction on its shortcomings and strengths, and finally discussed future development directions.

Except for the first time when most people were scolded.

After that, they were never criticized by Ladio again.

This time, everyone wore a confident expression.

When Ladio entered the classroom, he asked each student about their soul tools.

Bibi Dong was the first to speak. She placed a rectangular device on the table, which looked like a large fish tank. Inside the transparent glass was a device surrounded by many pipes.

Everyone stared in astonishment at the soul tool that Bibi Dong had created.

Because this soul tool doesn't have a level.

"I've developed a transmission device to reduce soul power loss. With this, the soul power loss of the Soul Lamp in Wuhun City can be reduced by 70%!" Bibi Dong said with great pride as she mentioned the soul tool she had just created.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

If the soul power loss of the soul lamps is reduced by 70%, then cities like Soto City in Douluo Continent can also become cities that never sleep!

"This device can be applied to many soul tools..."

Bibi Dong continued her narration at length.

Her phoenix eyes seemed to radiate light, dazzling and mesmerizing.

At this moment, she was no longer the aloof female pope, but a great person who promoted the development of Douluo Continent.

Although this soul tool that reduces soul power loss cannot truly allow the entire Douluo Continent to enjoy the light of night, it is indeed a big step forward!

Moreover, this progress is ongoing. As long as Bibi Dong continues her research, it's only a matter of time before she illuminates the entire Douluo Continent.

If Bibi Dong really succeeds, then her achievement is probably the greatest among all the Popes of the Spirit Hall, except for the Angel God!

Ladio nodded slightly and said, "Very clever, keep up the good work."

Ladio could see that Bibidon had embarked on a path of striving for progress. There might be some obstacles and detours along the way, but sooner or later she would reach the right destination.

Since that's the case, he won't give any more guidance.

Everything Bibi Dong encounters in the future will be a valuable experience for her!

Ladio then looked at Poseidon, who took out a small boat. Unlike ordinary boats, it had no sail, a closed square at the stern, and two fan-like objects at the bottom.

Poseidon looked at Ladio, a hint of nervousness flashing in his eyes, and whispered:

"These are the soul tools I made. They don't have any levels, and their functions are very simple. Driven by this soul tool engine, the propellers will turn, and then the small boat will move on the water."

After Poseidon finished speaking, he pressed a switch, and the next second, the propellers at the back of the boat began to spin.

"Buzzing...!!!"

Everyone found it strange, but no one thought it was anything special.

Bibi Dong's device has practical applications and can benefit many future soul-guided devices, but Poseidon's cruise ship can't really replace anything.

Ships have now developed into a wide variety of vessels in the Douluo Continent.

There are even large ferries that traverse the seas.

Poseidon's creation of a small boat failed to impress anyone.

Ladio stepped forward and opened the engine cover.

Upon seeing this, Poseidon's pretty face paled. Was the Holy Master Ladio so disappointed that he even wanted to destroy his own soul tool?

The others dared not laugh anymore, in case Saint Master Ladio took his anger out on them, they would be in a difficult situation to deal with!

"Master La...Ladior, I'm sorry..."

When faced with a problem, Poseidon apologized first, then awkwardly lowered her head.

As Ladio fiddled with the soul-guided engine, he casually remarked, "You don't need to apologize. Your idea is good. An engine—that can lead to many products. Don't just focus on the ship."

"!!!" No self-criticism?

Poseidon looked at Ladio with instant delight and even praised himself!

In an instant, she couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

"Master Ladio, do you mean... my soul tool has great potential for development?" Poseidon asked in surprise.

Ladio nodded. He inspected Poseidon's engine and found it to be well-made.

Even with some minor adjustments, it's usable now.

Especially in Wuhun City, it is entirely possible to make it widespread.

Bibi Dong clapped her hands and exclaimed, "If we put it on a carriage, wouldn't we no longer need horses to drive it? We could move forward entirely using a soul-guided engine!"

"It could also be used for other things, such as in high-rise buildings. It's tiring for most people to climb high floors, but what if an engine could pull people up?"

Everyone started brainstorming and thinking about potential applications for the engine.

Thinking about it this way, everyone realized how powerful the engine was, and that it could be used almost anywhere.

And the features are so comprehensive!

This is absolutely a powerful tool for driving progress!

Poseidon covered her face, her eyes brimming with surprise as she looked at Ladio.

Ladio said, "You can give it a try."

Bibi Dong immediately chimed in, saying, "Poseidon, let's cooperate with the Spirit Hall and conduct joint research. We'll establish... well, an organization to protect our theoretical achievements and prevent others from using them for free."

"..." Everyone looked at Bibi Dong in surprise.

As expected of the female pope, she directly seeks to profit from the situation by leveraging her influence.

This situation has almost never occurred in the Douluo Continent.

You should either keep your theoretical findings to yourself, or, like Yu Xiaogang did, publish them so that everyone can benefit from them.

But if you share your theoretical findings, you have to charge others for using them…

It can only be said that it was quite ahead of its time for the current Douluo Continent.

Ladio remained noncommittal and began to examine Di Tian's soul tool again.

Coincidentally, he also created a soul tool without a level, which was a soul-guided helicopter!

He placed it on the rooftop and led everyone to see it.

The helicopter is about four meters long, with an oval-shaped cabin that can seat four people. It has a propeller.

After Di Tian got in, he started the machine.

"Buzzing...!!!"

The helicopter took off slowly and very smoothly.

Ladio nodded slightly. Although the difficulty was not high, the ingenuity showed that Di Tian had put his mind to it.

"That's pretty good too."

Di Tian laughed and said, "Saint Master Radio, we plan to open an aviation consortium so that people from all over the Douluo Continent can ride soul-guided aircraft. We have already set up an airport in Wuhun City."

Bibi Dong nodded and said, "Yes, it's not just the Spirit Hall that supports it; both empires are also willing to accept the airport."

Ladio nodded in agreement; he was quite pleased that the students possessed such abilities.

The other soul tools were made in a straightforward manner, without any fancy tricks, but they were all above average. Among them, the soul tool made by Poseidon, the god of the sea, was almost at level five.

The finished product is very well made!

Ladio offered a few words of praise and then continued teaching.

But what he admired most were the levelless soul tools of Bibi Dong and the other two.

It is foreseeable that they will definitely drive the development of the Douluo Continent era.

……

After the lesson, Bibi Dong and the other two, who shared common interests and were of similar strength, couldn't wait to go and discuss matters. Everyone else went home, except for Poseidon, the sea god, who stayed behind.

He said to Ladio, "Mr. Ladio, those people want to see you."

"See me?" Latio hummed in agreement.

Before long, the classroom door opened, and the five great god-kings entered one after another.

Compared to their initial wariness, their expressions now as they looked at Ladio were somewhat complicated.

"Mr. Ladio..." the goddess of life greeted him.

Ladio nodded slightly and pointed to the table and chairs in front of him, indicating that they could sit down.

So, the five god-kings sat in the places where the students had just been seated, filling in the gaps.

As the host, Ladio naturally stood.

"???" All five God-Kings had a strange feeling.

In this way, it was as if they had become the students listening to the lecture, and Ladio was the teacher giving them the lecture.

Although Latio certainly had the corresponding abilities, they were, after all, gods, which made them lose face.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, also noticed the problem. He chuckled, and when all five great god-kings looked at him, he hurriedly said, "Shall we begin now? Please raise your hand to ask questions."

The God of Destruction instinctively raised his hand first, then realized what was happening, his face flushed red, and he glared fiercely at Poseidon, the god of the sea.

The goddess of life couldn't help but smile, and the god of destruction, upon seeing this, immediately suppressed his anger.

"Mr. Ladio, are you still holding onto your previous ideas? Is it just for the sake of researching the truth? Does this truth have any special meaning? What will it bring you?"

"The God of Destruction asked."

Ladio shook his head almost without thinking, saying, "Why bother with anything? The greatest joy in the world is simply getting closer to the truth. Compared to that, all other forms of entertainment are nothing but base pleasures."

"Fame and fortune? Lust and desire? They are all just fleeting clouds."

Ladio said matter-of-factly.

"..." The five great god kings were stunned for a moment, listening to Latio's words and looking at Latio's extremely serious... sculpted headgear.

They were all instinctively willing to believe what Ladio said.

But they dared not do so, for they bore the safety of the divine realm on their shoulders.

So they asked them all sorts of questions, and Latio answered them one by one.

Half an hour later, the five divine kings looked at each other and exchanged opinions.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, yawned and said, "Don't waste time. Be frank, some things should have been decided long ago, shouldn't they?"

"..."

The God of Asura gave him a cold look. "If the entire God Realm were like you, it would have perished long ago!"

Poseidon, the god of the sea, retorted, "Perhaps it's even greater!"

At this moment, the five great god-kings finished exchanging their opinions and focused their attention on the goddess of life, who was to speak.

The Goddess of Life said, "Holy Master Ladio, we are willing to believe in you. However, this involves matters unknown to us all, and it affects the future of the divine realm..."

"Therefore, we hope that some of the gods will cooperate with your experiment, and then you will teach us the method of separating the divine positions."

The Goddess of Life blushed slightly; this was not cooperation at all, but a transaction.

Ladio paused for a moment; for him, this was already what he wanted.

If a deity is willing to cooperate with the experiment, that's all that matters.

"Yes, but I must remind you that splitting up the divine positions is risky. If you make a mistake, at the very least, you could suffer the same consequences as Mr. Poseidon. You must be extremely cautious."

Ladio said.

"Of course! We will remember it!" the goddess of life smiled.

So they started trading.

Next, the divine realm will send ten deities to assist Ladio's experiment.

……

At the same time, Bibi Dong, as expected of the greatest pope of the Spirit Hall, showed great courage by putting the modified engine car into use within three days.

The area of ​​Wuhun City has expanded more than five times, almost equivalent to a province of the empire.

The newly built outer city streets are wider. Although commerce is not yet developed, they are already full of people. It seems that the streets are full of people every hour, and new tourists are constantly pouring in from outside.

In the outer city, Bibi Dong decided to put novel items such as the Soul Guide Vehicle in use on the outskirts first to prevent too many people from flooding into the inner city.

She even moved the scholars' alliance to the outer city, encouraging more people to move there.

People are not allowed to stay in the hotel for more than three days at the moment; if they do, they will be forcibly evicted from the hotel.

From now on, the inner city will no longer publish any new theories.

The outer city was divided into four regions: east, south, west, and north, each with a branch of the Papal Palace.

On this day, Liu Erlong arrived from the north gate, where Flander and the others were waiting for her.

When he arrived, Flander's eyes were filled with tears. He rushed to Liu Erlong, but was too shy to hug her. He just said excitedly, "Erlong! You...you don't seem to have changed at all. You're still so young."

Liu Erlong laughed heartily and nodded, saying, "But you, Flander, you're really ruthless."

Flander gave a wry smile; he was exhausted from being angered by Bibi Dong lately!

Liu Erlong turned her head and looked around, asking in confusion, "Flander, didn't you say Xiao Gang was here too? Where is he?"

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang, who had changed his appearance, stepped forward, nodded, and said, "Erlong, that's me. For some reason, I became like this..."

"???" Liu Erlong looked at Yu Xiaogang with a blank expression.

Flander nodded. "It's Xiao Gang..."

Liu Erlong's lips twitched. "What happened...?"

"We'll talk about it when we get back."

Flander glanced around warily. He was now afraid that someone might overhear Yu Xiaogang's words and recognize him, which would be dangerous for them.

Flander led Liu Erlong and the others to the station, which was the latest one built by the Spirit Hall.

"What are you doing standing here?" Liu Erlong asked, looking puzzled.

The next second, "Beep beep...!"

A green soul-guided vehicle suddenly appeared on the highway in the distance, heading this way.

"!!!" Liu Erlong stared blankly at the thing, pointing at the approaching soul-guided vehicle, raising his finger, not knowing what to say for a moment. (End of this chapter)
