Elsewhere, in the principal's office.

A middle-aged red-haired man was talking with a black-haired man.

The red-haired man spoke solemnly. "How is the quality of the new students this semester?"

The black-haired man answered respectfully, "In recent years, both the number and quality of our students have been rising year by year. This year, two peerless geniuses have joined our academy, and one of them is the dean's daughter—Huo Wu."

The red-haired man was none other than Huo Wu's father, and also the Blazing Fire Academy DeanHuo Wuxie.

And the black-haired man was the dean of the Primary AcademyXue Yuan.

When Huo Wushuang heard that another genius soul master besides Huo Wu had joined the academy, a look of surprise flashed through his eyes.

"What is the other student's situation?" Huo Wuxie asked.

At the mention of Quan Yi, Xue Yuan's face also filled with excitement.

"The other student is called Quan Yi. His Martial Soul: Blazing Sun Gauntlets, a rare mutated martial soul. And he also has Innate Full Soul Power, something seen only once in a hundred years."

"Innate Full Soul Power!" Huo Wushuang shot to his feet in excitement, his eyes widening, then suddenly burst into loud laughter.

"Hahahaha, Innate Full Soul Power! Heaven is blessing my Blazing Fire Academy!"

Huo Wuxie had come to the Primary Academy for two purposes. One was to visit his daughter. The other was to inspect the progress of the plan's implementation.

This plan was to cultivate all kinds of fire-attribute soul masters.

Simply put, it was to train all kinds of soul masters, such as Fire Power Attack, Fire Agility Attack, and Fire Crowd Control.

When people brought up elemental students, what they thought of was actually Extreme Flow. In other words, a soul master's abilities developed in only one single direction, pushing that single direction to the utmost limit.

But after so many years, Blazing Fire Academy, along with the other academies, had gradually begun to realize the ceiling of Extreme Flow.

Especially in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, teams that integrated Extreme Flow and Balanced Flow had begun to stand out, while Extreme Flow had gradually fallen into a disadvantage.

To change this situation, Blazing Fire Academy intended to cultivate students who met their requirements from the very beginning. Previously, the students who came to Blazing Fire Academy from other primary and intermediate academies had all been following the old path of Extreme Flow. They had already been completely set in their ways and could not be changed.

For this, they had planned for a long time. Drawing in the Flame Vein, recruiting more young teachers—all of it was preparation for this.

Gathering more fire-attribute soul masters would help subdivide soul master categories, and younger teachers were more likely to accept new teaching methods.

This plan had already been underway for several years, and initial results had already begun to show.

Huo Wuxie had also begun looking forward to the day when those results would be displayed. In particular, Huo Wu's appearance had boosted his confidence greatly.

But he had not expected an even greater surprise to be hidden within it.

Innate Full Soul Power was a talent every soul master dreamed of. Previously, when he heard that Godwind Academy had produced someone with Innate Full Soul Power, Huo Wuxie had been extremely envious of them. He had not expected Blazing Fire Academy to also receive someone with Innate Full Soul Power.

"Do you know this Quan Yi's background?" Huo Wuxie asked.

"I don't know the details, but you should know her mother. Su Ling'er is an alumna who graduated from our Blazing Fire Academy," Xue Yuan answered.

"Su Ling'er. He's actually her son."

Su Ling'er had once represented Blazing Fire Academy in the Advanced Soul Master Competition, so of course Huo Wuxie knew Su Ling'er. After hearing this, Huo Wushuang immediately felt somewhat reassured.

Huo Wuxie instructed Xue Yuan very seriously, "Xiao Yuan, your task is very heavy, especially with this class of new students. You must cultivate them well. Perhaps in this generation, our Blazing Fire Academy will be able to accomplish a great feat that no predecessor has ever achieved."

Xue Yuan had also graduated from Blazing Fire Academy, and his feelings for Blazing Fire Academy ran very deep. This kind of dream also existed in his heart.

Xue Yuan replied excitedly:

"Rest assured, Dean. All the teachers in our academy are already prepared."

"Good, good, good." Huo Wuxie patted his shoulder hard three times. His heart was filled with anticipation for the future.

Just then, there came a knock at the door.

"Knock, knock, knock."

"Come in." Hearing someone knock, the two of them calmed down again and sat back in their chairs.

"Hello, Dean. Dad, I'm here."

The person who came was none other than Huo Wushuang.

"Wushuang, where is Xiao Wu?" Huo Wuxie asked Huo Wushuang.

"She had a match with a new student and got a little hurt, so I had her go back to rest."

"What! Xiao Wu is hurt! Who was it? Who dared to bully Xiao Wu? I'll teach him a proper lesson." The father's temper was exactly the same as his son's—just as fiery, and just as doting toward Huo Wu.

Huo Wuxie flew into a rage, his eyes wide with fury, like a tyrannical dragon.

Huo Wushuang looked at his father as if he were looking at himself. He hurriedly soothed him. "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."

Huo Wushuang quickly told his father about Quan Yi and Huo Wu.

"Hahaha, so that's how it was. Looks like our Xiao Wu has finally met an opponent." After listening to Huo Wushuang's explanation, Huo Wuxie's mood immediately improved greatly.

Especially when he heard the news that Quan Yi and Huo Wu had already become friends, Huo Wuxie was greatly surprised, but also felt that it made sense.

The world of soul masters was extremely cruel. The strong only conversed with the strong. Originally, Huo Wuxie had still been worried that Huo Wu would not be able to make friends at the academy, but now it seemed he no longer needed to worry about that problem.

However, Huo Wuxie still had to check things over on Huo Wu's behalf.

"Wushuang, in your opinion, what kind of person is that Quan Yi?"

Huo Wushuang carefully recalled his memories of Quan Yi, from the time he had beaten up Sun Jie to today's meeting. Though the time had been short, the impression was deep.

"I think he's a simple, direct person."

That was Huo Wushuang's most immediate impression of Quan Yi.

Huo Wuxie fell into thought when he heard that.

"Simple and direct. Interesting. Wushuang, let them follow their natural course. However, you should also properly help her keep an eye on him."

Huo Wuxie chose to watch for the time being. After all, there was still plenty of time, and there was no need to rush. Letting things take their course was best.

On the other side, Huo Wu had no idea that her father had once come to the Academy.

Starting that night, Huo Wu began circling around Quan Yi.

However, she did not disturb Quan Yi. Instead, she carefully observed him.

She was learning and thinking.

Quan Yi was very gratified by Huo Wu's behavior, because Huo Wu had not blindly imitated him, but was instead exploring her own path.

Quan Yi did not drive her away. Instead, he tacitly accepted Huo Wu's presence. Even when he was practicing fist techniques, Quan Yi did not chase her off.

During their training, the two never talked. And even when they did talk, they rarely discussed cultivation.

They remained close, while still maintaining a certain tension.

It perfectly matched that saying: both rivals and friends.

After two days passed, Huo Wu also began her own training plan.

Huo Wu's training focus was different from Quan Yi's. Her martial soul, the Fire Shadow Martial Soul, did not require Huo Wu to possess a powerful physical quality.

Therefore, Huo Wu did not do the same as Quan Yi. She chose running and Burpees as her morning and noon training items.

As for the rest of the time, she either meditated or cultivated her martial soul's Soul Skills.

Seeing Huo Wu get onto the right track, Quan Yi stopped paying attention to her.

Morning and afternoon were among Quan Yi's few rest periods. Quan Yi usually read books in the Dormitory. Quan Yi read very quickly, usually finishing a book in a single day.

As for that book by Yu Xiaogang, he had flipped through it several times.

The various data proofs and deductive logic inside were even more of an inspiration to Quan Yi.

However, Quan Yi had not lost his reason. He did not simply place blind faith in any conclusion.

Quan Yi was also constantly studying other martial soul knowledge, learning unfamiliar knowledge in a critical manner.

Therefore, when Quan Yi read, he would write down the parts he did not understand. Then, after looking up the relevant information himself, he would analyze them.

However, the more Quan Yi researched, the more enthusiastic he became.

Countless types of Soul Beasts, countless types of martial souls—when the two were multiplied together, they would bring about countless possibilities.

The splendid world of Spirit Masters was slowly walking toward Quan Yi.
