Douluo Continent: I Have a Diverse Order-Taking Platform

"But I'm stating the truth."

Yan Shaozhe adopted a righteous and awe-inspiring posture.

"Our Shrek Academy is famous for its Martial Soul system. There are quite a few core disciples from the outer court who are loyal to the academy, and they are stronger than the core disciples from the Soul Guidance system."

Xuanzi nodded.

"Shao Zhe makes a lot of sense."

With Elder Xuan's support, Yan Shaozhe felt even more confident.

Seeing his expression, Xian Lin'er bit her lower lip hard and clenched her fists. If Qian Duoduo hadn't been holding her back, and if this weren't the Sea God Pavilion, she probably would have slammed a cannon into Yan Shaozhe's face!

"A petty person has gotten their way!"

"Lin'er, calm down..." Qian Duoduo comforted her while saying, "Elders, Junior Brother Liu Yuan vacated a spot for the Soul Guidance Department because Soul Guidance Devices can provide different kinds of assistance to the participating students."

"No one would disagree with that, right?"

The development of the Soul Guidance System is an inevitable trend.

Even people like Yan Shaozhe and Xuanzi, who tend to look down on soul tools, have to admit this.

Otherwise, Shrek Academy wouldn't have established a separate Soul Guidance Department in the first place, and wouldn't have developed the entire Soul Guidance Department into the number one in the Douluo Continent.

"Duoduo..." But just then, Yan Shaozhe spoke up again. "Since you say that soul tools can help, then why don't you just provide soul tools to our martial soul department directly?"

This attempt to reclassify the Soul Guidance Department as logistics, making it work for the Martial Soul Department, has completely ignited the powder keg!

"Yan Shaozhe!" Xian Lin'er flung Qian Duoduo aside, her hair standing on end in anger. "Don't push your luck!"

"Isn't that right?"

Xian Lin'er's fury sent chills down Yan Shaozhe's spine, but he still forced himself to say, "In terms of Soul Master aptitude, our Martial Soul Department students are undoubtedly superior. Only when they learn to use Soul Tools can their advantage become even more obvious."

Liu Yuan, who had originally planned to speak later, couldn't help but cast a surprised glance at him upon hearing this.

He vaguely remembered,

Yan Shaozhe, along with most of the members of this year's regular team, held prejudices against soul tools and were considered staunch opponents. They rarely used soul tools.

Why would he have this thought now?

Could it be that he got it mixed up?

The reason Yan Shaozhe had this idea was that last year, he learned that Liu Yuan said that one of the spots in the Soul Guidance Department had to be reserved for a Soul Guidance Department student, so he privately approached Mu En to try to change this decision.

After all, the students in the outer academy are all outstanding and can easily take that spot in the Soul Guidance Department.

Unexpectedly, he was reprimanded by Moon.

Even after he finished scolding him, Moon didn't let him off the hook.

He not only explained the importance of the soul tool and his concerns to Yan Shaozhe, but also repeated everything Liu Yuan had told him before.

They thought that after this, Yan Shaozhe would no longer fixate on the sole spot for the Soul Guidance Department.

Who would have thought that Yan Shaozhe, by adhering to his "original aspiration," would actually gain new insights from him!

In response, Liu Yuan had to admit that Yan Shaozhe's idea was not wrong, and was even quite correct.

In his view, a true soul guidance system should be like the era of the Dragon King Legend, developing in the direction of scientific research.

Leaving aside other types of soul tools, even combat-type soul tools made by soul masters should ideally be provided to soul masters for their own use, so that the two can complement each other.

Instead of the Soul Masters taking the tools they created and insisting on personally going into battle.

"Senior sister, senior brother, could you please hear me out?"

Liu Yuan spoke, silencing the hall.

"Junior brother, you speak."

"Yes, you say it."

Obviously,

Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er both gave him a lot of face.

However, Liu Yuan did not rush to speak. Instead, he took out a wooden box from his storage soul tool.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Just as the group was wondering what was inside the wooden box, Liu Yuan opened it, revealing neatly arranged cigars inside.

"cigar?"

Xuanzi frowned and sniffed.

"No, it's a food-type martial soul."

He immediately picked up a stick and lit it.

Seeing this, the other elders followed suit.

After all, it was clear why Liu Yuan took out this box of cigars: he wanted them to try it.

But as soon as he drew it, Xuanzi sensed something was wrong. "Which food-type Soul Master made this?"

Liu Yuan, however, was in no hurry to answer. Instead, he asked:

"Elder Xuan, what do you think of this cigar?"

"Of course it's top-notch." Xuanzi didn't hold back his praise for the food-type martial soul's effects. The other elders who had finished tasting it also nodded, indicating their satisfaction with the cigar's effects.

"What if the cigar could be kept for two days?"

The crowd's praise instantly turned into astonishment.

"It can still be stored for two more days!?"

"Yes, two days."

Liu Yuan nodded and continued, "Actually, these cigars were made by the Soul Guidance Department student I'm looking for, named He Caitou. So, do you think he can make it into the reserve team?"

Does this need to be said?

Of course you can!

At this moment, even Yan Shaozhe had no more words. Because such a food-type talent was enough!

The quota for the Soul Guidance Department was immediately approved.

This made Xianlin'er and Qian Duoduo very happy.

But before she could rejoice for long, Xian Lin'er keenly noticed Yan Shaozhe staring in her direction. Knowing his character well, Xian Lin'er's heart immediately tightened!

not good!

The matter was settled.

But a dog had its eye on its own meat.

"Hehe—" At this moment, Moon, who had been observing from the sidelines, laughed. "Looks like the problem is solved?"

Upon hearing this, the wary Xian Lin'er immediately glared fiercely at Yan Shaozhe and made no further comment.

In contrast, Yan Shaozhe subtly withdrew his gaze, shamelessly acting as if nothing had happened.

"Actually, it's not really a solution," Liu Yuan chimed in, then went on to say bluntly, "The conflict between the Martial Soul System and the Soul Guidance System has a long history, stemming from differing beliefs. If it's not resolved, conflict will inevitably erupt sooner or later."

"Yes, that's right."

Moon nodded slightly, then cast a questioning glance. "So, what do you think is the best way to resolve this?"

"Actually, what Senior Brother Yan just said is quite right."

Upon hearing this, Xian Lin'er panicked!

She wanted to stand up.

But Moon stopped him with a gesture.

"Lin'er, don't worry."

"Yuan'er, please continue."

With permission, Liu Yuan explained his thoughts: "Actually, in my opinion, the Soul Guidance Department is mispositioned."

He turned to look at Xianlin'er.

"Senior sister, what is a Soul Master?"

Xian Lin'er said in a flat tone, "Developing soul tools." Clearly, she was still angry about what had just happened.

Liu Yuan didn't mind and continued to ask:

"What about those who use soul tools?"

Xianlin'er replied without hesitation, "Of course."

"What if we only use it and don't do any research and development?"

This time, she paused for a moment.

"no."

"If a Soul Master specializing in Martial Soul cultivation were to fight a Soul Guidance Device against a Soul Master, who do you think would be stronger?" Liu Yuan's question didn't stop there.

Xianlin'er: "...The vast majority are the former."

After the Q&A session ended

At this moment, both Xian Lin'er herself and the other elders and deans present understood Liu Yuan's meaning. To put it bluntly, a soul tool is just a tool; the stronger the user is, the stronger they become when paired with a soul tool.

Isn't the current Extreme Individual Soldier Project designed by the Soul Guidance Department a perfect example?

"You see, this is a problem with the positioning."

Liu Yuan summarized, "The Soul Guidance System and the Martial Soul System are in competition, but in reality, their ultimate goals are different. To put it bluntly, the Martial Soul System focuses on how to improve oneself, while the Soul Guidance System focuses on how to create more advanced soul tools. One strengthens the person themselves, and the other strengthens the person's tools. Ultimately, the two should complement each other, so how can there be any contradiction?"

These words prompted the elders to nod in agreement.

That makes perfect sense!

"Phew—" Xian Lin'er breathed a sigh of relief as her anger subsided. Then, with an apologetic look in her eyes, she said:

"Junior brother, I'm sorry. Senior sister got excited."

"fine."

Liu Yuan waved his hand, not caring.

He then turned to Moon and said in a serious tone:

"Teacher, I think this needs to be changed."

"Since there's a problem, of course it needs to be changed."

A relieved smile appeared on Moon's aged face. "But what do you think should be done?"

Three points to clarify:

"First, the Martial Soul system leans towards martial arts, while the Soul Guidance system leans towards academics; second, the goal of the Soul Guidance system remains to cultivate Soul Guidance Masters, but it must be made clear that research is the primary focus; third, both the Martial Soul system and the Soul Guidance system will have a minor program, which will teach Martial Soul system students how to use Soul Guidance devices in conjunction with their own Martial Souls in combat, and ensure that Soul Guidance system students do not fall behind in their Martial Soul cultivation."

Liu Yuan had actually already prepared a plan for this.

I just didn't expect it to be released so soon.

But the atmosphere had already reached this point.

After listening, Moon nodded in satisfaction, feeling that his decision to take on a disciple was even more correct.

He had long been troubled by the conflict between the Martial Soul System and the Soul Guidance System, and he knew that things could not continue like this.

His outdated mindset meant that he only realized the seriousness of the situation, but he could never come up with a solution.

did not expect,

But his own disciple took it out.

Now, it's not just about having talent for cultivation. He's also adept at development.

What a blessed son! May his descendants prosper for three generations!

After expressing his feelings, he glanced at the others.

What do you think?

The words had barely left his mouth when he exclaimed, "I agree!"

Xuanzi, without hesitation, was the first to raise his hand.

In any case, as long as it benefits Shrek Academy, he will support it unconditionally, no matter what.

After all, you can call him stupid, incompetent, and unreliable, but when it comes to his loyalty to Shrek Academy, there's no doubt about it.

As everyone knows,

The Holy Spirit Church's Supreme Elder was just joking.

With Xuanzi taking the lead, the other elders and the four deans all expressed their agreement.

Through the two events at this meeting, Liu Yuan established his own unique prestige. If the elders of the Sea God Pavilion had previously regarded him merely as a most outstanding junior, this time, Liu Yuan earned half of their respect through his actions.

As for the remaining half, respect...

We'll have to wait until our strength reaches a certain level before making any decisions.
