Douluo Continent: I am a biologist, and I have awakened a weapon spirit?

After receiving the answer, Dugu Bo turned around and left immediately.

He's going to have a heart-to-heart talk with that lousy author and let him know the harm of arbitrarily cutting off chapters.

Chapter 41 Chenfeng's Barrier of Knowledge

Nottingham College.

The young gatekeeper yawned as he watched the people coming and going at the gate, listlessly keeping watch over the entrance.

A moment later, he saw three figures walking towards him.

I met one of them a couple of days ago. He seems to be a friend of the master. He is a noble soul master who can also fly.

The other two were completely unfamiliar faces.

One of the men was wearing a white overcoat and frameless glasses, exuding a refined and noble air, while the other was a handsome man with waist-length white hair.

As the three people approached, the young gatekeeper became inexplicably nervous.

He knew that apart from the flying Soul Master, the other two were definitely not ordinary people; at least their aura was something that ordinary people could not possess.

"Soul, Soul Master," the young gatekeeper stammered.

"Hello, may we come in? We're here to see the master," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.

"Please, please come in. The master is inside the academy." The young man quickly made way for him.

Ning Fengzhi and the other two entered the academy. Just as Chen Xin was about to ask where the master was, he saw a man wearing a knitted hat walking towards them.

"Sect Master Ning, Sword Douluo." Grandmaster bowed slightly to show his respect.

“Master, Dean Flander said that you painted that picture, is that right?” Ning Fengzhi asked.

“I drew it,” the master nodded and said. “I saw that jade pendant on a child and thought it was something special, so I drew it.”

"Where is that child now?" Chen Xin asked impatiently.

"I'll take you there now." The master turned and walked towards the grove of trees, where Chen Feng and Tang San should be cultivating at this time.

"So, that jade pendant really is a family heirloom of Sword Douluo, your family?"

"You could say that," Chen Xin replied simply, without elaborating.

Upon arriving at the grove, the four could vaguely see two children through the trees.

Chen Feng slapped a seed away, spat to the side, and said:

"I could fight you all day long!"

Tang San: ? ? ?

Did you steal my lines?

Tang San felt that Chen Feng was probably getting cocky. Even a life-type soul master with a constant supply of resources wouldn't dare say he could fight for a whole day. How dare Chen Feng say such a thing?

Sanctions must be imposed!

Thinking of this, Tang San immediately controlled a Blue Silver Grass on the ground and sent it spreading towards Chen Feng.

If I can't precisely control many Blue Silver Grasses, surely I can control one Blue Silver Grass?

Chen Feng stared intently at the grass on the ground, his feet treading the somewhat clumsy Ghost Shadow Steps technique, dodging the threat of the Blue Silver Grass as he approached Tang San.

Tang San stood still, having not let Chen Feng touch him even once during their previous sparring sessions. Now, he wanted to see just how powerful Chen Feng's attacks were.

So, you can run, but there's no need.

Using the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Technique he had just learned, Chen Feng successfully approached Tang San, who was standing still, and also stepped into the Blue Silver Grass formation surrounding Tang San.

A seed exploded without warning near Chen Feng, but it had no effect on him, because he had already jumped up, placed one foot on a nearby tree, and his body soared into the air.

Holding the Tai Chi Bagua Sword, he activated his first spirit ring at the highest point of his flight. The Tai Chi Bagua Sword suddenly became heavier, causing him to plummet downwards.

"A meteorite fell from Mount Tai!"

"Bang!" The Tai Chi Bagua Sword, now significantly heavier, slammed into the ground, instantly destroying the Blue Silver Grass formation and creating a deep crater.

As for Tang San, he easily dodged the attack.

He looked at the deep crater in the ground and commented, "It's powerful, but it's hard to hit anyone."

"Moreover, you are now surrounded by me."

Tang San pointed to the ground. Chen Feng was already surrounded by Blue Silver Grass, with several seeds hidden among them. If the grass exploded, Chen Feng would likely suffer a terrible fate.

"Sigh, another loss." Chen Feng sighed.

When Tang San gave him the Xuan Tian Bao Lu technique, he knew that Tang San had completely regarded him as a brother.

Therefore, his wariness gradually disappeared, and he no longer secretly guarded against Tang San, but instead regarded Tang San as one of his own.

This is Chen Feng's principle of conduct: if you treat me well, I will treat you well in return; if you help me, I will help you in return.

Even though Chen Feng considered Tang San one of his own, constantly losing in sparring wasn't a pleasant experience, which inevitably left him feeling somewhat frustrated.

To put it bluntly, there is no positive feedback.

"Sigh, if only I had awakened a biological martial soul, then all my biological knowledge would be put to good use," Chen Feng couldn't help but think to himself.

His previously published paper was essentially a DLC called "Rise of Biological Martial Souls" that he created for this world.

The problem is that he is a weapon spirit master and cannot benefit from the version's advantages, which inevitably makes him somewhat anxious.

Chen Feng had always felt that the concept of artifact martial souls was somewhat illogical. If it were that biological martial souls were formed when humans obtained the bloodline of soul beasts, passed down from generation to generation, and then activated through an awakening ceremony, then that would make sense.

But what the heck is a weapon spirit? Where does the bloodline come from? Is this thing even plausible?

Chen Feng knew very well that he had, to some extent, fallen into a cognitive trap, trapped by his biological knowledge from his previous life and the fixed mindset formed over the past twenty years.

This kind of mental barrier is very difficult to overcome, and no one in the world can help him in this regard; he can only rely on himself.

At this stage, Chen Feng can only respect the objective facts, proceed with his cultivation step by step, and then repair the Tai Chi Bagua Sword.

As for how to overcome the barriers of limited knowledge and apply his research talent to weapon spirits, we can only wait and see if there will be any turning point in the future.

Seeing that Chen Feng looked troubled, Tang San comforted him:

"Don't be so discouraged. Master said before that under the same conditions, weapon spirit masters are weaker than beast spirit masters in the early stages. Once our spirit power increases, you will naturally become stronger."

Moreover, he himself possessed martial arts skills, so it was quite normal for Chen Feng to be unable to defeat him. Tang San was somewhat puzzled as to why his childhood friend was in such a low mood.

"Little San, have you forgotten that you are also a Soul Master?" Chen Feng said leisurely.

"Uh, this... haha." Tang San scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.

Just as he was racking his brains to think of something else to say, he heard the master's voice.

"Xiao Feng, come here for a second."

Chen Feng and his companion looked in the direction of the sound and saw the four masters standing in the distance, clearly having been watching for a while.

Chapter 42 The Strongest Rising Star in Douluo Continent

Upon seeing the three people beside the master, Chen Feng's pupils immediately contracted.

Flanders had a very distinctive appearance, and he recognized him at a glance.

As for the other two, after carefully observing them, Chen Feng also had some guesses in his mind.

Wow, good heavens, I've transmigrated into a post-90s generation? Does that mean I have an incredibly lucky start?

The titled Douluo was furious when he discovered that his descendants were living in exile, eating only grass and sleeping on communal beds. He immediately ordered 100,000 disciples to come!

The strongest rising star in Douluo Continent, right?

Tang San: What did Blue Silver Grass do to you?

Chen Feng's mind raced, but he didn't show any expression on his face. He and Tang San arrived in front of the four masters.

"Master, hello, who are these people?"

"Let me introduce you. This is Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, this is Sword Douluo, and this is my friend Flander," the Grandmaster introduced them in order of rank.

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?" Chen Feng's face showed just the right amount of surprise.

“Hello, child, I am Ning Fengzhi. Can you show me your jade pendant?” Ning Fengzhi spoke first.

"A jade pendant? How did you find out I have a jade pendant?" Chen Feng's face showed a hint of wariness.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Feng, it was I who told Sect Leader Ning about your jade pendant. I saw it fall out during your competition that day," the master explained.

"Then... why did you tell this, uh, Sect Master Ning, about the jade pendant? Does he know the origin of my jade pendant?" Chen Feng asked, frowning.

Although he already had some suspicions about the matter, it was only reasonable for him to express doubt at this point.

“Child, we can’t draw any conclusions yet. Can we take a look at the jade pendant first?” Ning Fengzhi said gently.

"This... alright." Chen Feng hesitated for a moment before taking out the jade pendant from his clothes, unfastening it from his neck and handing it to Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi took the jade pendant, and Sword Douluo, who had been waiting impatiently, also came over.

“It really is…” Chen Xin examined the jade pendant carefully, her tone complicated.

"Yes, what is it?" Chen Feng asked in confusion.

This doubt was not an act, because he genuinely didn't know what his relationship with Sword Douluo was.

Logically speaking, Sword Douluo should be a single lineage, so what is Chen Feng's situation?

Is Old Wang next door really putting in the effort?

Or does Sword Douluo have some unknown love story?

Things have to be logical, right? Just because he time-traveled doesn't mean a person just pops out of nowhere.

That's something only trashy fanfiction would do, but he's in the real world now.

"Could it be that I am your descendant?" Chen Feng asked Sword Douluo tentatively.

“No, I have devoted my life to the sword and have no children. You are not my direct descendant, but if you are willing, you can call me grandfather,” said Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

He glanced at the master and Flander, about to say something, when the master spoke up:

"Little San, it's getting late. Why don't you come eat with us first?"

It was almost noon, definitely lunchtime.

Tang San understood that it was inconvenient for him to stay there, so he nodded, patted Chen Feng on the shoulder, and then followed Master towards the cafeteria.

However, at that moment, Ning Fengzhi suddenly asked:

"Speaking of which, Master, why were you in such a hurry to have Dean Flander come to us?"

Flander was also reminded of the inconsistency, "Oh right, Xiao Gang, you still haven't explained to me why you were in such a hurry for me to find Sword Douluo."

Chen Xin also looked at the master. Flander's urgency earlier had indeed made him and Ning Fengzhi feel very nervous.

On their way here, they thought the owner of the jade pendant was in danger and urgently needed a strong person to save him, which is why Flander was in such a hurry to come over.

When they arrived, they found Chen Feng full of energy and even able to fight. How could they not be puzzled?

Chen Feng vaguely understood, because he was fishing himself, so he could naturally figure out why the master was in such a hurry to bring Sword Douluo over.

He mentally gave the master a thumbs up. The arrival of Sword Douluo gave him great confidence, so he no longer had to worry about being put over the head by Old Deng's sack.

Amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd, the master explained his purpose:

"The reason I was in such a hurry to contact Sword Douluo is because Xiao Feng is going to be in trouble recently. He published a paper before, and after reading it, I felt that the paper might cause a huge uproar."

"A paper?" Ning Fengzhi suddenly realized something. "The paper published in this issue of the Tian Dou Weekly?"

“That’s right.” The master nodded.

"Feng Zhi, what thesis?" Sword Douluo asked in confusion.

He was invited to the council hall while practicing swordsmanship, and after seeing the painting, he rushed over without knowing anything about the thesis.

"That was a paper... one that would shake up the Spirit Realm." Ning Fengzhi looked at Chen Feng with a shocked expression. "Xiao Feng, did you write that paper yourself?"

"Yes, but the master gave me a lot of guidance," Chen Feng nodded and said.

The master had helped him so much, so he didn't mind sharing some of his fame with the master.

But the master refused to accept it, shaking his head and saying:
