Douluo Continent: All the identities I've played have become gods.

Chapter 55 I'll Be a School Board Member

After parting ways with Tang San and Xiao Wu, Su Ming wandered around Soto City.

Before he knew it, he had arrived at the shop that Flanders had opened in the city.

Although Flanders' shop was not large, the signboard hanging above it was quite unique.

At first glance, one can immediately tell that this is a shop open to Soul Masters.

"They're open? Better late than never. I'll go in and have a look around." Su Ming immediately became interested.

He had been eyeing that top-grade crystal plate containing a large amount of gold for a long time.

There's a saying that goes, "It's never a bad thing to have many skills."

The dragon whisker needle is quite interesting.

Of course, the most important thing is that one day they might use the dragon whisker needle and come up with another version of the story.

Then they can harvest another batch of wish power from Tang San.

For Su Ming, it is essential to seize every opportunity to reap the benefits of wishes.

This is also his consistent principle in doing things.

With this thought in mind, Su Ming walked straight into the shop.

The goods sold in Flanders' shop are quite interesting.

Most of the items sold in the shop are soul tools.

If a soul tool is not used and bound to one's own soul power, then the soul power will be released externally.

So as soon as Su Ming entered the shop, he felt waves of soul power emanating from it.

"Douluo Continent is still a bit behind."

As Su Ming entered the shop, he looked around and examined the merchandise, especially the soul tools.

The final conclusion is as follows.

This isn't something Su Ming is talking nonsense about.

The soul tools that have survived in the Douluo Continent today can be considered antiques and are extremely rare.

Moreover, most of these soul tools do not have offensive capabilities and can only perform simple auxiliary functions.

Furthermore, the vast majority of methods for making soul tools have been lost.

This is enough to show the people of Douluo Continent's lack of attention to soul tools and their shortsightedness.

In the second era of Douji, the Sun and Moon Continent drifted over.

Those powerful soul tools of various types and with diverse functions have officially made their debut in Douluo Continent.

The people of the Sun Moon Empire relied on these soul tools to cause the forces of the original Douluo Continent to suffer repeated defeats.

However, even under such circumstances, the people of the original Douluo Continent still considered this a heretical path and firmly believed in the supremacy of martial spirits and soul masters.

There are far too many short-sighted and stubborn people.

"Let the people of Douluo Continent witness the power of soul tools ten thousand years ahead of schedule."

As he casually put down a lamp-type soul tool and looked at another soul tool, Su Ming made up his mind once again.

Whether it was the soul tools in Douluo Continent II, the battle armor in Douluo Continent III, or even the appearance of mechs, all of these were within his original plan.

At some point, Flander, who had been lying on the recliner, got up and came to Su Ming's side.

Seeing Su Ming's interest in soul tools, he said, "I didn't expect you to be interested in soul tools."

"Can't I be interested?" Su Ming retorted.

Flanders chuckled.

"Those Soul Masters with powerful Martial Souls and outstanding talents tend to focus more on themselves and rarely pay attention to external forces such as Soul Tools. Moreover, most of the Soul Tools that have been passed down to this day are for daily use and assistance, and very few can play a role in Soul Masters' combat."

"Furthermore, due to the extreme rarity of soul tools, there are very few people in this era who are interested in and have conducted any research on soul tools."

What Flanders said is actually quite true.

During the first era of the Warring States period, Soul Masters paid more attention to their own strength.

In battle, they basically use their own martial spirit.

Only support-type Soul Masters who lack offensive capabilities would consider carrying items for defense or to facilitate escape.

Only during the Dou Er period.

After being repeatedly defeated by the Sun Moon Empire and witnessing the power and function of high-level soul tools.

It was only after some insightful individuals from the original Douluo Continent began to research soul tools that things started to happen.

Although it's late, it's still better than doing nothing.

"Dean, what are your thoughts on soul tools?"

As he examined the soul tool he had just picked up, Su Ming casually asked for his opinion.

His words implicitly revealed his interest in soul tools.

Although I didn't expect Su Ming to be so interested in soul tools.

But Flanders still answered the question, revealing his true thoughts.

He said with a sigh, "The potential is enormous! In my opinion, soul tools have a very bright future. It's a pity that the methods for making soul tools have been lost."

These words seemed to give Su Ming a new perspective on Flanders.

Seeing Su Ming's somewhat surprised expression, Flander said rather smugly:

"What? Didn't expect that, did you? Did you think I was some kind of old-fashioned person who prioritizes martial spirit above all else?"

"Having traveled extensively in mainland China for so many years, I have seen and experienced some powerful and functional soul tools. However, it is regrettable that most of the ones I have collected are the kind that are sold in stores."

"That's true. Based on my impression of you, Dean, you're definitely not the kind of rigid, old-fashioned person who's extremely inflexible." Su Ming nodded, agreeing with what the other person said.

Flander is not one of those stubborn old men who firmly believe in the supremacy of martial spirits.

He is more often perceived as a cunning and stingy businessman.

In addition, he had roamed the Douluo Continent for many years, so his knowledge was naturally beyond that of ordinary people.

In battle, they will certainly make use of everything available.

This, of course, includes soul tools.

Flanders, who had picked up the conversation, suddenly changed the subject.

He cautiously asked Su Ming, "By the way, Su Ming, what have you been thinking about Shrek Academy lately?"

"Not bad. The teaching staff is indeed excellent."

Flander was overjoyed and immediately pressed his advantage, extending another invitation to Su Ming:

"So, what are your thoughts on joining Shrek Academy?"

"If you join now, tuition will still be completely free. You'll also receive comprehensive training from Shrek Academy!"

"Besides, aren't you interested in soul tools? The ones in the shop aren't rare. I can show you my collection of soul tools, and maybe you can even pick one out."

As he said this, Flander unconsciously rubbed his hands together, and the smile on his face squeezed out wrinkles.

For Flanders, who loved money more than anything, this was a real drain on his wallet.

Flanders' exaggerated posture is really not his fault.

In his view, all of this was worthwhile.

These are all necessary prerequisites for acquiring a fortune.

After all, Su Ming's talent was simply too exaggerated.

Any faction that learns of Su Ming's existence would want to bring him under its wing.

Flanders was no exception.

Shrek Academy's motto is "We only accept monsters, not trash," and then cultivates super "little monsters" from among its students.

Su Ming's appearance made Flander realize...

It turns out that the difference between people is actually greater than the difference between people and dogs.

In front of Su Ming, no one dared to call themselves a genius or consider themselves a monster.

At the same time, Flander also very much wanted Su Ming, this super prodigy, to join Shrek Academy and become a member of the academy.

It's not an exaggeration to regard Su Ming as a gold mine.

If we succeed, all the effort will be worthwhile!

"I already told you, Dean, from the beginning that I belong to a sect. So it's impossible for me to officially become a student of Shrek Academy."

Faced with Flander's renewed invitation, Su Ming made his mind clear and continued to refuse.

Flander retorted, "Ning Rongrong also became a student of our Shrek Academy. This was with the permission of the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Flander, who had inadvertently let slip the secret, decided to tell Su Ming everything in the hopes that Su Ming would change his mind.

The latest novel is first published here!

Little did he know that Su Ming knew Ning Rongrong's true identity even earlier than he did.

"That's different. As the head of a sect, how can I arbitrarily join other forces?"

If those familiar with my sect were to find out that I had become a student at Shrek Academy, wouldn't that become a laughing stock?

Su Ming made his point clear, but he still left Flander with a glimmer of hope.

"Of course, we can't be students anymore. But I think we can still be colleagues."

These words undoubtedly brought a ray of hope to Flanders.

"What do you mean?" Flander quickly asked.

"That means I'll invest in Shrek Academy and become a member of its board of directors," Su Ming said, revealing his true thoughts.

This idea wasn't originally there; he added it to the plan outline at the last minute.

Although Shrek Academy had already arranged for him to have an external avatar - Poison Undying.

However, when Su Ming arrived at Shrek Academy to personally harvest the power of wishes, he discovered that his involvement could develop more plot points, evoke more emotional changes, and harvest even more power of wishes.

Therefore, having an identity within Shrek Academy is more suitable for future development and reaping of aspirations.

It's not just Shrek Academy; other forces that are worth reaping the power of wishes, besides their own avatars, also include those outside of Shrek Academy.

Su Ming will also contact them and arrange an identity for them.

It is certain that they will either be collaborators or become leaders directly.

As for the so-called lowering of posture, that doesn't exist for him!

"Don't worry. Now that I'm on the board of directors, I will absolutely not interfere with the college's teaching. On the contrary, the college will not only have my prestigious name on it, but it will also receive a large sum of teaching funds from me."

At this moment, the balance of power shifted between Su Ming and Flander.

"Let me think about it first." Flander was silent for a while before giving a reply that he would talk about it later.

But judging from his emotional changes and his desire to reap the rewards, Flander was definitely tempted by Su Ming's proposal.

The number and quality of students in this year's Shrek Academy class are unprecedented.

Although he did have plans for retirement when he first founded Shrek Academy.

But Flander also had the idea of ​​leading Shrek Academy to glory and letting the students shine on the stage of the entire continent.

For Shrek Academy, which had refused funding from the Barak royal family and various other forces.

Having this money will definitely make things much better when educating a group of students.

This not only reduces the pressure on teachers, but also allows students to access better training resources.

"In that case, Dean, you should think it over carefully."

After saying that, Su Ming prepared to leave the shop, giving Flander time to think it over.

"I almost forgot." Just as he was about to step out the door, Su Ming stopped and suddenly turned around.

"I'm quite interested in that crystal. I wonder if Dean Flander would be willing to part with it?"

Following the direction Su Ming pointed, Flander, who had come to his senses, looked over.

It was a crystal the size of a human head, hanging closest to the door.

It doesn't look particularly remarkable. Although it is transparent, it contains large areas of dark yellow impurities.

In fact, this is a rutilated quartz that has existed for 100,000 years and contains tens of thousands of strands of rutilated quartz.

No, it should be called plate crystal, the finest of rutilated quartz!

"Take it if you want it. It's not anything valuable anyway. Consider it one of my early gifts to the future school board member."

Flander waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care, and chose to give it to Su Ming.

The suggestion Su Ming made was indeed very tempting to him.

A board member who provides funding, does not actively interfere with the college, and is himself a highly reputable figure.

This is such a rare find!

In Flander's mind, he had already leaned towards Su Ming's idea.

However, agreeing to it directly would be somewhat hasty, and we need to discuss it further.

As for whether or not there was any doubt about the truthfulness of what Su Ming said.

Flanders, however, never doubted it.

Although he hadn't spent much time with Su Ming, in Flander's eyes, Su Ming was the most knowledgeable and mysterious among all the students.

An intuition told him that even Princess Ning Rongrong of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Prince Dai Mubai of the Star Luo Sect did not have the same noble status as Su Ming.

"Thank you very much, Dean Flander."

After expressing his gratitude, an immense power lifted the crystal and placed it into Su Ming's robes.

Self-created Soul Skill - Universe in the Sleeve.

Whether used against an enemy or for peacetime purposes, it is the best choice.

It saved Su Ming a lot of trouble and effort.

A bizarre spatial-type soul skill!

Su Ming's little display of skill only strengthened Flander's belief in his intuition.

"Then I'll take my leave, Dean Flander."

This time, Su Ming really left.

Flander, on the other hand, returned to his recliner and began to think.

Meanwhile, within the small space created by the "Hidden Universe in the Sleeve".

The rutilated quartz that had just entered was instantly reduced to dust under the influence of an infinite power.

Countless golden specks of light were left behind, trapped in place by this power.

"So this is the Dragon's Whiskers Needle."

On his way out, Su Ming had a sudden thought and took out a golden particle.

I squeezed it and found it to be slightly soft, but very elastic.

With the infusion of soul power, the golden particle slowly extended.

In a short while, it had already transformed into a golden thread as thin as a hair.

This is the Dragon Beard Needle, one of the top ten hidden weapons of the Tang Clan!
