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

"Did you hear about my situation and want to help me solve my martial soul problem? Thank you, Xiao Feng, but Luo Sanpao's problem is unsolvable. I've spent half my life trying to figure it out." The master gave a sorrowful smile.

"Let me see. Don't give up hope," Chen Feng insisted.

“Very well.” The master did not refuse again and released his martial spirit.

Upon seeing Luo Sanpao appear, Chen Feng clapped his hands at him.

"Suckling!"

Chapter 13 Luo Sanpao's Rescue Plan

What appeared before Chen Feng was a creature that looked like a dog but was about the size of a pig.

It has golden fur all over its body, two small ears that droop down, and a pair of big, deep blue eyes that blink gently.

Chen Feng quite liked this chubby, furry little creature.

He had always dreamed of awakening a detached biological martial soul, but unfortunately, he could not achieve his wish and ultimately awakened an "inorganic garbage devoid of any life beauty".

Upon seeing Luo Sanpao, Chen Feng immediately became interested. He reached out and ruffled Luo Sanpao's fur a couple of times, giving a general overview of the only detached beast spirit on the continent.

Then he asked:

"Master, since you awakened your martial soul, has Luo Sanpao's physique changed significantly?"

"It has appeared." The master nodded.

"I mean without any other assistance."

"Then that's all."

"I see." Chen Feng nodded, indicating that he understood.

He thought for a moment and then asked:

"Master, under what conditions did Luo Sanpao's physique undergo such a drastic change?"

The master hesitated for a moment, "It's when he forms a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with other people, at which time Luo Sanpao will evolve into a Golden Sacred Dragon."

"Golden Sacred Dragon? I've heard there was once a group called the Golden Iron Triangle whose Martial Soul Fusion Technique was to summon the Golden Sacred Dragon. Master, could you be one of them?" Chen Feng asked in surprise.

"Yes." The master nodded expressionlessly.

"Then you must be one of the wise ones among them, right?" Chen Feng asked.

The master was silent for two seconds. "That's all in the past. There's no point in bringing it up again."

Tang San and Xiao Wu looked at the Grandmaster with some surprise. They never expected that this somewhat dejected uncle had such a glorious past.

“Master, you may not understand what I mean. I have no intention of exploring your past; I only want to find a solution to Luo Sanpao’s problem.”

Chen Feng released Luo Sanpao, his expression very serious:

"Since the Golden Iron Triangle's Spirit Fusion Skill is to summon the Golden Sacred Dragon, then what I want to ask is, who is the main consciousness controlling the Golden Sacred Dragon in this Spirit Fusion Skill?"

“It is I,” the master replied.

"Then who is the main martial soul that makes up the Golden Sacred Dragon?" Chen Feng pressed.

"It's Luo Sanpao."

"So, in the Golden Iron Triangle's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the role of the other two is to strengthen Luo Sanpao, am I right?" Chen Feng continued to ask.

"That's true, but what does that prove?" The master still didn't quite understand. "Only by being strengthened can Luo Sanpao transform into the Golden Sacred Dragon. Normally, it doesn't change at all. Any Soul Master will become stronger when strengthened by a Support Soul Master. What's so special about that?"

Chen Feng countered, "Then will other Soul Masters experience such a significant change in their Martial Soul after being strengthened?"

The master was speechless.

Chen Feng continued, "Since Luo Sanpao underwent such a significant change after you and the other two formed a Martial Soul Fusion Technique, it means that Luo Sanpao himself has potential. It's just that some conditions are not yet ripe, which is why he has remained in this weak state."

"So we only need to analyze the specific roles played by the other two people to find a treatment for Luo Sanpao. Master, I want to ask you, among your other two partners, is there anyone whose martial soul is a dragon seed?"

A hint of surprise flashed in the master's eyes. "Yes."

"Is it just one person or both?"

There is only one.

"I understand." Chen Feng nodded. "Then I can confirm Luo Sanpao's first problem: his dragon bloodline concentration is slightly weaker, making him insufficient for evolution."

"I know this problem too, but I can't solve it," the master sighed.

"Master, please don't rush. I haven't finished yet. I have a second question." Chen Feng held up two fingers, making a peace sign. "Among your two companions, is there anyone whose martial soul is of the light attribute?"

"No." The master shook his head. He felt as if he vaguely understood something, but he couldn't quite grasp the specifics.

"In other words, the Golden Sacred Dragon's light attribute comes entirely from Luo Sanpao, which means that Luo Sanpao's light attribute level is extremely high, and he is able to support the activities of a Golden Sacred Dragon on his own."

"What it lacks is the bloodline of the dragon race and sufficient soul power, or rather, energy support, which is why it has always been so weak," Chen Feng concluded, then asked another question:

"Master, have you ever obtained a spirit ring from a dragon-type spirit beast?"

The master shook his head with a stern face.

"Ah, what a pity." Chen Feng sighed.

"So, there's still no way?" A trace of pain appeared in the master's eyes. "I didn't choose dragon-type soul beasts for either of my soul rings, and my soul power is currently stuck at level 29. Is there really no hope left?"

The outstanding academic talent that Chen Feng had previously displayed, as well as the professionalism of the questions he had asked, gave the master a glimmer of hope.

But now, will this faint hope ultimately vanish with Chen Feng's sigh?

"No, there is still hope!" Chen Feng said decisively. "Master, life will find its own way. Don't forget, Luo Sanpao is an extremely rare detached beast spirit in the entire continent."

He pointed to Luo Sanpao, who was rubbing against him, and said:

"As a beast spirit that is separated from the body, you should not only regard it as a spirit, but also as a life. The greatest characteristic of life is growth, and the best way to grow is to eat."

"I'd like to ask, what do you usually feed it?"

“…Radish.” A hint of embarrassment appeared on the master’s face, but he already understood what Chen Feng meant. “Are you suggesting that Luo Sanpao should eat the flesh and blood of a dragon-type soul beast himself?”

Xiao Wu, who was standing to the side, looked much paler upon hearing this.

“No, we don’t actually need flesh and blood, just blood is enough. There’s no need to create unnecessary killing.” Chen Feng shook his head and said, “And it would be best if it were one of the three attributes: light, lightning, or fire.”

He certainly noticed the change in Xiao Wu's expression, but at the moment, apart from trying to avoid unnecessary killing, there wasn't much else he could do.

Ultimately, the profession of Soul Master is far too abnormal. If this problem is not solved, then the diverse and colorful types of Soul Beasts will inevitably disappear.

As a biologist, Chen Feng couldn't stand this kind of thing.

Chapter 14 Finding a Bodyguard

"Is blood all that's needed? Indeed, there's no need for unnecessary bloodshed."

The master nodded, agreeing with Chen Feng's idea, "Soul beasts need a long time to grow, while soul masters only need a few decades, but they need to devour the lives of at least several soul beasts. The difference in growth rate between the two will eventually lead to the gradual extinction of soul beasts."

He looked at Chen Feng and the other two, and warned them:

"I hope that in the future you will refrain from killing soul beasts unless absolutely necessary, for the sake of the future of the soul master world."

“No problem, Master!” Xiao Wu agreed without hesitation, and Chen Feng and Tang San also nodded in agreement.

"Also, Xiaofeng, thank you very much today. You are a very academically talented child. If Sanpao's problem can really be solved by your method, then I will owe you a huge favor," the master said earnestly.

"You flatter me. Your advice to our two soul beasts was already a great favor, and my advice is unlikely to yield any results in the short term. It might not even be of any use at all," Chen Feng said modestly.

"In any case, at least I have a direction to strive for. I have always believed that there are no useless martial souls in the world, only soul masters who are willing to be useless."

"Before this, I gave up on solving Luo Sanpao's problem, which was just being a useless person. That was wrong of me. Fortunately, you brought me hope. Even if the method you gave me doesn't work, I will continue to look for ways to solve Luo Sanpao's problem until the moment I die," the master said firmly.

His expression was no longer as decadent and lazy as before, but instead showed a kind of determination.

“Good, very spirited. But Master, how do you plan to obtain the blood of a dragon-type soul beast? These soul beasts are usually very strong,” Chen Feng reminded him.

“I… will write to my friends and ask them for help,” the master said after a moment’s hesitation.

"In that case, I wish you all the best. Also, could you please come with us to the Sand Gold Valley? I'm afraid we might misjudge the age of the soul beasts. And I'd also like to trouble you to ask our teacher for leave for us," Chen Feng suggested.

He is now fairly certain that this is the comic book version of the master. At least from the other party's performance, he should be a scholar with extensive knowledge, and he can give him initial trust.

Moreover, regardless of the version of the master, they are very accurate in identifying soul beasts and judging their age, so there won't be any problems in this regard.

Of course, the master's martial arts skills still have flaws, so Chen Feng still needs to find a bodyguard.

It's you I've decided on, Lao Su.

In reality, both Master and Lao Su were just bodyguards in name only; the real bodyguard was Tang Hao, who was lurking in the shadows.

Since Tang San is going to hunt souls, Tang Hao will inevitably follow, which means they will basically not encounter any major dangers.

“Going to the Sand Gold Valley? Sure, I can take leave without any problem. But before we set off together, I need to write to my friend.” The master accepted Chen Feng’s invitation without much hesitation.

If I write a letter now, Flander should arrive around the time He Chenfeng and the others return.

Yes, the master ultimately chose to seek help from Flanders.

If the master wanted the blood of a dragon-type soul beast, seeking help from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family would have been the best option, followed by going to Bibi Dong.

However, because of what happened back then, the master didn't want to contact his family from the bottom of his heart, and it was even more impossible for him to find Bibi Dong.

Therefore, Flanders became his only choice.

Chen Feng could roughly guess who the master was asking for help from, because the master was quite arrogant in every version.

However, the arrogance of the comic book version of the master is ingrained in his bones. When his theory is wrong, he will readily admit his mistakes and acknowledge his shortcomings, but he will never back down on matters of principle.

As for the original author, perhaps it's due to the author's writing skills that this character was described in a rather cringe-worthy way.

Overall, however, the master's arrogance makes it unlikely that he would seek help from his family and ex-girlfriend, especially from his perspective, given that he dumped his ex-girlfriend for no apparent reason.

Therefore, Chenfeng believes that the master will most likely seek out Flander. With hope for the future, the slight estrangement between the master and Flander is negligible.

This is exactly what Chen Feng wants: by contacting Flander, he can guide Ma Hongjun's choice of spirit rings.

To be honest, Chen Feng found Ma Hongjun's first soul skill, Phoenix Fire Line, quite humorous.

Does this mean that without this soul skill, this chubby guy can't breathe fire?

If properly nurtured, the little fat boy's phoenix martial soul actually has great potential.

In this way, the Li trigram on the Tai Chi Bagua sword can be found.

Compared to a top-tier martial soul like the Fire Phoenix, the Fire Lord of Naruto is just a joke.

Since Chen Feng is going to make a choice, he should definitely choose the best one.

……

After arranging a time with the master, Chen Feng, Tang San, and Xiao Wu left the cafeteria.

He planned to go to the Spirit Hall and ask Su Yuntao to be their bodyguard.

The three arrived at the Spirit Hall, greeted the gatekeeper, and then Chen Feng easily made his way to Master Matthew's office on the second floor.

"Good afternoon, Grandpa Matthew." Chen Feng greeted the old man.

"Oh, it's Xiaofeng. What brings you here? You should be at school right now," Matthew asked, somewhat surprised.

"Because the three of us are going to obtain our first spirit ring, we took leave to come out. Is Brother Su here?" Chen Feng explained.

"Obtaining the first soul ring? Oh right, right, you and Xiao San both have innate full soul power, so this little girl is with you too? Is she also innate full soul power?" Matthew first realized, then asked with some surprise.

“Yes, Grandpa, I also have innate full soul power,” Xiao Wu said with a sweet smile.

Her appearance is quite deceptive; anyone who sees Xiao Wu without knowing her would think she is a well-behaved and cute little girl.

However, this perception will be quickly shattered once you come into contact with them.

"Oh my, I never thought that my little Notting City could produce three children with full innate soul power." Matthew looked at the three children in front of him and smiled happily. "Alright, alright, Yun Tao went out to run some errands this morning, he should be back soon now, you can wait here."

"Then let's wait on the first floor so as not to disturb your work," Chen Feng said.

“Okay, Xiaofeng is such a good kid. By the way, do you have enough people? Should I find two more people to come with you?” Matthew said after thinking for a moment.

He quite liked Xiaofeng, and since these three children were all so talented, it would be better to cultivate good relationships with them.

"No need, Grandpa Matthew, we can manage." Chen Feng declined Matthew's offer and then waved goodbye.
