Chapter 14: Huo Yutong must join the Soul Guidance Department.
Qian Duoduo's smile froze, then she stiffened her neck and said, "Old Yan, what are you saying? I'm just trying to let the outstanding teachers and students fully understand the characteristics of each department in the academy!"
Besides, with Huo Yutong's talent, it would be a waste if she didn't come to the Soul Guidance Department!
Yan Shaozhe ignored him. "I am Yan Shaozhe, the Dean of Shrek Academy and the Dean of the Martial Soul Department. Congratulations to both of you on joining Shrek Academy!"
With your combined strength and potential, the Martial Soul Department will undoubtedly provide you with the highest quality resources to help you grow.
Yan Shaozhe, relying on his titled Douluo cultivation, could hear Qian Duoduo poaching Huo Yutong from afar, inviting her to join the Soul Guidance Department.
"This must be Huo Yutong, right? Congratulations on passing the assessment."
Yan Shaozhe's smile became even warmer. "Your martial spirit is very special, and your mental strength far surpasses that of ordinary people."
Our Martial Soul system possesses the most advanced spiritual soul master training system on the continent, including the meditation method most suitable for the Spirit Eye Martial Soul.
Would you be interested in learning about the inheritance of the Martial Soul system first?
Qian Duoduo immediately became anxious upon hearing this and quickly interjected, "Old Yan! What you're saying is incorrect!"
Huo Yutong's talent clearly lies more in soul tool design!
"Vice Dean Qian is mistaken," Yan Shaozhe retorted calmly. "Martial spirit is the foundation of a soul master."
Huo Yutong is still young, so her primary task is to lay a solid foundation and explore the potential of her martial soul.
Soul tools are ultimately external objects; being distracted too early might affect her future potential.
Moreover, it's not that my Martial Soul system completely avoids Soul Tools; it's just that we focus more on the fusion and application of the Martial Soul and the physical body.
"That's prejudice! Times are changing, and the importance of soul tools is increasing day by day!" Qian Duoduo argued vehemently.
The two deans exchanged words, and the tension in their conversation gradually escalated.
Fan Yu, watching from behind, broke out in a sweat, while Bi Ji and Zi Ji frowned slightly.
Huo Yutong was indeed full of curiosity about soul tools. Everything that Vice Dean Qian showed her was novel and something she longed for.
But Dean Yan's words also make sense...
Just as her mind was in turmoil, in her sea of consciousness, Electrolux said, "Raindrop, simply follow the choice of your heart. Your path is yours to decide; do not let external things disturb you."
Tianmeng also said, "Hmm, Lao Yi is right. Yutong, choose the one you like!"
Hyotei continued, "Hmph, why bother? Strength is eternal; you can cultivate other skills as well."
Their words calmed Huo Yutong down.
Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo also temporarily stopped arguing, focusing their attention on Huo Yutong and waiting for her response.
Huo Yutong first bowed to Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo respectively, and politely said, "Thank you for your high regard, Dean Yan and Vice Dean Qian."
Then, she looked at Yan Shaozhe and said, "Dean Yan, you are right. Martial Soul is the foundation of a Soul Master. I will work hard to cultivate and will not slack off."
A satisfied smile appeared on Yan Shaozhe's face.
But Huo Yutong then turned to Qian Duoduo, "Vice Dean Qian, soul tools are really amazing, I'm very interested."
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo's eyes lit up immediately.
Huo Yutong paused for a moment before stating her decision: "I was thinking, could I... first study basic courses in the Martial Soul Department, and at the same time use my spare time to audit some basic knowledge courses in the Soul Guidance Department?"
I want to learn more first before making the choice that best suits me.
Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo were both stunned for a moment, and then they both showed thoughtful expressions.
Although this proposal is not their most desired outcome, it seems to be... the safest and most reasonable solution at present.
Forcing a genius to make a choice may backfire.
Yan Shaozhe said succinctly, "Not arrogant or impatient, very good. I agree to this proposal. The door to the Martial Soul Department is always open for you."
Although Qian Duoduo wanted to bring Huo Yutong into the Soul Guidance Department immediately, she knew she couldn't rush things, so she went along with it: "Alright! Huo Yutong, the Soul Guidance Department welcomes you to study and exchange ideas anytime! Fan Yu,"
He turned to Fan Yu and said, "When Huo Yutong comes to the Soul Guidance Department in the future, please take good care of her."
Fan Yu quickly agreed.
After Yan Shaozhe bid farewell to Biji, Ziji, and Huo Yutong with a warm smile and watched them head to the freshman dormitory area, only Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu remained in the corridor of the Soul Guidance Department testing area.
Fan Yu finally voiced the question that had been lingering in her mind for so long: "Vice Dean, what is so special about Huo Yutong that makes you and Dean Yan value her so much?"
Qian Duoduo said, "In the field of soul tools, Huo Yutong's martial soul is the Spirit Eye, a physical martial soul, and it is the eye part, which is already within the scope of a top-level physical martial soul."
But most importantly, she possesses two extremely rare spirit-attribute soul skills: Spirit Detection and Spirit Sharing.
"Mental detection and mental sharing?" Fan Yu immediately grasped the key point. "Shared mental detection? What's the range? How accurate is it?"
Qian Duoduo's smile widened. "Based on my previous experience, her mental detection and mental sharing range far exceeds that of other mental attribute soul masters of the same level, and the accuracy is extremely high, capable of discerning the subtle details."
Just imagine, Fan Yu, when you're inscribing the core magic array, what a sight it would be if you had a partner with such precise shared detection capabilities assisting you, or even... if you were to personally perform the inscription yourself!
Upon hearing this, Fan Yu gasped. He knew all too well what this meant!
For Soul Masters, high-precision mental detection is like a second pair of eyes; this ability is truly divine!
The "sharing" feature means an unparalleled advantage in team collaboration.
"Not only that," Qian Duoduo said with a hint of excitement, "I vaguely sensed that there seems to be another extremely hidden yet incredibly powerful force within her."
Yan Shaozhe must have sensed something, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a hurry.
He values the potential of her martial soul itself, while our Soul Guidance Department aims to explore her auxiliary talent, which can change the landscape of soul tool manufacturing! This is the future.
"Fan Yu, it would be best if she were assigned to Zhou Yi's class. If not, I'll make sure she is, and ask your Zhou Yi to pay close attention to her. Huo Yutong must be admitted to the Soul Guidance Department."
Many years later, when Qian Duoduo, who had already retired, was playing mahjong with Xian Lin'er, Yan Shaozhe, and Cai Meier, who had also retired, he would mention the afternoon he took the three Huo sisters to visit the Soul Guidance Department, and called it the best decision he had ever made in his life.
Then Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er started bickering, resulting in neither of them winning a single game. Xian Lin'er and Cai Mei'er won all their money, so the two old men had to ask their wives for some pocket money and compete to see who had more.
Xianlin'er and Cai Meier were given the same allowance, so how could they compare who had more gold soul coins, silver soul coins, or bronze soul coins, even though they were all worth the same amount?
They can even compare the age of the Soul Coins when they're the same value...
Xianlin'er, Cai Meier: We still give them too much pocket money...
(In this story, after Xian Lin'er and Yan Shaozhe broke up, she accepted Qian Duoduo's pursuit, fell in love with him, and married him. Yan Shaozhe only started dating and married Cai Mei'er after breaking up with Xian Lin'er. Feng Ling is Yan Shaozhe's ex-girlfriend.)
