Jing Hongchen

The testing technology used inside this building was simply beyond imagination, exceptionally advanced and cutting-edge.

Here, Soul Tools for testing every aspect of the human body's abilities were available in abundance, dazzling the eye.

Whether it was precise measurements of physical strength, detailed analysis of the depth and breadth of Spiritual Power, or comprehensive exploration of physical limits, every Soul Tool displayed its own unique and outstanding capabilities.

Not only could these Soul Tools obtain accurate data, they could also present the results in an intuitive, easy-to-understand manner, giving people a clear and comprehensive understanding of their own potential and strength.

Jin Tianming entered the testing area and studied these advanced Soul Tools. At that moment, he had to admit that the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Tools were so advanced that he did not even know what words to use to describe them.

If the original three kingdoms and Shrek Academy had not had people like Huo Yuhao and Tang San, those primitives would never have withstood the Sun Moon Empire's full-scale Soul Tool assault.

So Huo Yuhao was guilty, but not guilty enough to deserve that. The most guilty one was Tang San. That guy was simply the greatest obstacle holding back Douluo Star's development.

In Dou San, without the God Realm and without Tang San, the continent was directly unified, and Soul Tools advanced even further.

When the time came, he would let his original self see whether Huo Yuhao should simply be turned into a Dragon Slave. Becoming their family was still better than becoming the Tang Family's dog.

"Test your Soul Power first, then your physical strength," Director Lin said as he adjusted the equipment.

This was not the academy's enrollment period, so he was the only one in the testing building. Still, that was enough. If too many people learned that the academy had gained such a genius, some people might set their sights on him or even directly poach him.

Especially the royal family. Those people wanted to mate with every kind of Martial Soul.

Jin Tianming did not hide anything during the Soul Power test. When testing his physical strength, he even directly destroyed the machine.

When Director Lin saw the results, he first fell silent, then was shocked, and finally became ecstatic. Sun Moon Royal Academy had actually gained a monstrous genius no weaker than those at Shrek Academy!

Heaven truly blessed Sun Moon Royal Academy!

"Student Jin, I'll take you to the dormitory first. There's no rush to arrange your class," Director Lin said, holding the report. He could hardly wait to show it to the Hallmaster.

Jin Tianming nodded and followed behind Director Lin.

Director Lin quickly brought Jin Tianming to a brand-new dormitory. He also took out a Soul Tool ring and told him that it contained basic daily necessities. If anything was lacking, he could make a note of it and come find him later.

After saying that, Director Lin hurriedly left.

Seeing Director Lin like this, Jin Tianming already knew that his plan had succeeded. What he wanted was to enter Jing Hongchen's sights. If he wanted to obtain more fortune for his original self, he needed more people from the original plot.

Fortune was inherently intangible. The Sun Moon Empire's share of fortune was likely found only among these people.

The Hongchen Family, Ju Zi, the Silver Moon master and disciple, Xu Tianran, the Holy Spirit Cult, and finally, the nation's fortune.

As for the Evil Eye Tyrant, it belonged to the fortune of Soul Beasts and was not within his target range.

Jin Tianming played with the spatial Soul Tool ring in his hand as he entered the dormitory. Seeing how new it was, he could not help but praise it. "As expected of Sun Moon Royal Academy. It's not like Shrek Academy, where hundreds of people have to squeeze into one toilet and bathhouse."

"Lord Golden Dragon, do you need me to go there?"

Moxie's voice sounded from nowhere. Jin Tianming shook his head and said, "There are at least several Rank 9 Soul Engineers there. There's no need for that."

"Yes! Then I shall take my leave. If you need anything, just call for your subordinate."

"Mm."

Mingde Hall, Hallmaster's Office.

"Jiayi, are you sure you weren't lying to me? A ten-year-old boy with such data, and a Soul Bone? It might even be an External Soul Bone?"

As the dean of Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy and the current Hallmaster of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen looked as though he had seen a ghost.

He glanced at the report in his hand, then looked back at Lin Jiayi as if asking whether he was really not lying.

Name: Jin Tianming

Age: Ten years old, eleven in one month

Martial Soul: A rare Dragon Martial Soul, extremely similar to the royal family's Purple Blazing Heaven Annihilation Dragon.

Soul Power: Rank 26 Soul Grandmaster

Soul Ring configuration: First ring, 765 years; second ring, 1,283 years

Physical strength: Destroyed a machine with one blow. The machine was unable to assess it.

And so on.

Jing Hongchen felt like he was about to grow a brain.

There was definitely a powerful faction behind such a genius. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to cultivate so quickly, and his Soul Rings could not have been so absurd.

Ordinary people's second Soul Rings were basically all hundred-year rings, yet Jin Tianming's second ring was a thousand-year ring. That meant the little fellow had eaten no small amount of Whale Rubber.

Seeing that Lin Jiayi truly did not seem to be lying, Jing Hongchen could not help but sigh. "Those really are outrageous figures!"

"Exactly! When I saw them, my jaw nearly dropped. Especially when he destroyed the machine, I nearly stared my eyes out," Lin Jiayi said, recalling the scene of Jin Tianming smashing the machine apart with one punch. He still found it utterly unbelievable.

Jing Hongchen set down the report and rested his chin on his hand. "Did you ask where he came from?"

"I was in a hurry to report to you, Hallmaster, so I did not ask much. But he seemed completely ignorant about Soul Tools and came here specifically to learn about them."

Hearing this, Jing Hongchen immediately seized upon the key point. Completely ignorant about Soul Tools—was he from the three kingdoms? Or perhaps from a hidden faction?

Either was possible.

After thinking rapidly for a moment, Jing Hongchen instructed Lin Jiayi, "Jiayi, go take care of your work first. Leave that little fellow to me from now on."

"Understood, Hallmaster." Seeing that the Hallmaster was interested, the weight in Lin Jiayi's heart finally lifted. He had feared that the Hallmaster would not be interested or would fail to take it seriously.

If Jing Hongchen knew that Lin Jiayi thought this way, he would probably be furious. If he did not value such a genius, who would? The Holy Spirit Cult?

Lin Jiayi silently left the spacious, brightly lit office, leaving Jing Hongchen sitting alone behind the broad desk.

Jing Hongchen lightly tapped his fingers against the desktop, producing a rhythmic tapping sound. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his deep eyes gazed ahead as though he had fallen into thought.

At that moment, countless thoughts raced through his mind as he considered how to deal with a youth like Jin Tianming, one whose talent rivaled Shrek Academy's monstrous geniuses.

The talent and potential this youth had displayed left Jing Hongchen both excited and somewhat worried.

He was excited because, if Jin Tianming could be properly nurtured and guided, he might become a dazzling star of the academy and even the nation, bringing them and the country tremendous achievements and glory. Yet he was worried because he did not know where the youth came from. If he was from the three kingdoms, things would be somewhat troublesome. If he was from a reclusive faction, it would be easier to handle.

Jing Hongchen knew well that a special approach was needed for such a genius. He had to be given enough freedom to fully display his talent, but he could not be allowed to run wild and slip out of control.

The balance was crucial. One careless move could mean missing a valuable opportunity or causing unforeseen consequences.

Thus, over the following period, Jing Hongchen remained immersed in thought, racking his brains to devise a response...

"Geniuses like this really are rather troublesome~"
