Approaching the European Emperor Will Bring Misfortune

"You seem quite happy."

Ma Xiaotao followed behind, as if she could sniff out a hint of the boy's emotions.

"It's an unexpected joy. I have a new hypothesis about Soul Ring Attachments that needs verification. Although it differs greatly from the original goal, research is, after all, a process of exploring the unknown, rarely perfect."

"Besides, I've also gotten some leads on the established goal. If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to perfect the theory and start experimenting within half a year."

On the unknown road, no one can predict what they will encounter on their next turn, whether it will be a permanent resident in their life or a demolition crew causing trouble. These are all unknowns.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that life's depth and height have so many uncertainties.

This is why life possesses the resilience to go from dust to brilliance.

"Yuhao. Are we really going to find Ning Tian?"

Standing outside the teaching building, Wang Dong frowned, his face full of conflict.

"But we have so many questions that need Ning Tian, Teacher, to answer."

Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong with confusion in his eyes. Logically, hadn't you already used your charm to gather information before? Why do you look like you're afraid to meet her now?

"Sigh! Fine, I'll risk it all for you today!"

"Oh? When did I become a gentleman?"

Ning Tian's voice suddenly came from behind Wang Dong, startling him into quickly stepping back to avoid being touched.

"You two, too. Just watch, excessive curiosity can harm you."

Ning Tian walked past them, her tone revealing a hint of helplessness. She had already learned the specific details through Azure Blue.

Ning Tian could only sigh, "A newborn calf fears no tiger."

Why did that sound a little familiar? Oh, right, that's what my teacher called me back then…

At that time, Chen Fu was preparing to customize a special Battle Soul Instrument for Ning Tian to improve her work efficiency, though her working hours would remain the same.

But Ning Tian felt she had already learned enough. She wanted to make a Battle Soul Instrument for herself, indicating she didn't need her teacher to worry.

In response, Chen Fu's evaluation was: A newborn calf… To avoid discouraging his disciple's enthusiasm for learning and to show support for her dreams, he had Azure Blue compile a comprehensive theoretical package for Battle Soul Instrument chips and sent it to Ning Tian, expressing his earnest expectations for her.

"Ahhh! Finally, I have a successor! I'm losing so much hair!"

Ning Tian authorized the second-generation Battle Soul Instrument, containing the learning package, to Huo Yuhao and handed it to him. It was merely the transfer of a small Soul Tool, but in Ning Tian's eyes, it was the beckoning of a beautiful support Soul Master life.

She now desperately missed the days when she was a support-type Soul Master and couldn't wield a pagoda to beat people. Although she lived foolishly, her hair didn't fall out!

[Hair loss is a normal physiological phenomenon]

Ah! Now even Azure Blue can bully me ()

Azure Blue is the core hub and main host of the Battle Soul Instrument's mental network, possessing the authority to remotely control any Battle Soul Instrument within range.

One of Azure Blue's long-term tasks, assigned by someone unknown, is to ensure Ning Tian doesn't slack off during work hours.

This causes her to be reminded by Azure Blue every time she tries to slack off, with threats to add as much overtime as she slacks off.

Ning Tian: (▼皿▼#)

Azure Blue: (σ′▽‵)′▽‵)σ Happy working!

As for why Wang Dong knew Ning Tian, it was because during the freshman enrollment, faced with fangirling girls and boys of the opposite gender, Ning Tian, who was neither infatuated nor hostile towards her, but rather very interested, undoubtedly left a good first impression.

As for Ning Tian, some non-core data in Azure Blue's database was open to her. Coupled with the knowledge Chen Fu had force-fed her, she… Goddess of Light Butterfly! That's incredibly rare! What the heck, is she a 1?! Oh, wow, this is… so cool!

Sometimes Chen Fu wonders if the physical changes are also having unknown effects on the brain? Or perhaps the lack of work tasks makes her think of strange things? Unlike him, who works twenty-four hours a day, year-round, and doesn't even need to sleep after Azure Blue was formed.

"Azure Blue, did I miss anything?"

Chen Fu, who was debugging Soul Power nodes one by one, frowned. He felt like he had overlooked something.

[Is there a specific scope?]

"Regarding Ning Tian."

[Family, friends, behavior…]

Azure Blue listed Ning Tian's information item by item.

After a quick scan, Chen Fu fell into a strange silence.

He then opened the data regarding the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect and the history of its predecessor, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, preserved by Shrek Academy.

"Construct the Wu Feng personality model."

[Model constructed]

"???"

Even Chen Fu, who had seen many storms and rarely showed emotion, felt his face stiffen.

The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect's strong demand for Soul Masters with powerful individual strength became dispensable in the face of Melting Ring.

This means Ning Tian's criteria for choosing a partner would no longer be restricted by sect rules.

While understandable, it's still…

Did I encounter something inauspicious today? Why am I so unlucky??

"Azure Blue, gifting Ning Tian a value learning gift package. An assessment is required!"

[Quest Log Updated]

Ning Tian, who had been daydreaming about her bright future, suddenly felt a chill down her spine and immediately straightened her posture.

"Why do you always startle people like that?"

Wang Dong, whom Ning Tian had kept behind, was startled. He thought the "disrespectful teacher" was going to try and take advantage of him again.

If she didn't have leverage over him, he wouldn't have stayed behind alone!

"It's nothing, Azure Blue sometimes issues tasks. You'll get used to it."

Watching the download bar on the Battle Soul Instrument interface slowly progress, Ning Tian began to realize the seriousness of the situation.

"Hurry up and tell me why you kept me,"

Seeing Ning Tian's expression frozen and silent for a long time, Wang Dong grew impatient. He still wanted to go and ask for Huo Yuhao's second-generation Battle Soul Instrument to play with; that thing wasn't sold yet.

"I'm not keeping you. Teacher doesn't allow me to play with you right now."

BANG!

The airflow from the closing wooden door made Wang Dong's eyes water.

If confusion had levels, Wang Dong felt he would be max level.

"What? Finally some results?"

Chen Fu, who had advanced the Ascension to Godhood progress to 89%, looked at the green hamster girl who seemed to have been missing for quite some time.

Mo Ling's Martial Soul had undergone a beneficial mutation under Chen Fu's intervention. It had changed from a lucky golden hamster to a jade-scaled lucky golden hamster... because she perfectly inherited both the poison and lucky traits.

"Look for yourself, the data from Seed Experiment No. 52."

[Data Received]

Chen Fu briefly scanned the data and then looked at Mo Ling, who seemed to have lost weight, with a puzzled expression.

"27 consecutive positive mutations?"

And each time, you got the beneficial mutation results you wanted?

"Yeah, if the early rapid growth trait hadn't appeared, I wouldn't have continued the cross-breeding for so long. Is something wrong?"

The double-bunned girl's chubby face seemed to say: Is there something wrong?

This is utterly unbelievable...

"Azure Blue!"

[Statistical Model Established, Adding Variables]

[Seed Experiment No. 52 Model Constructed, Calculating Probability]

[Average Time Required to Reach Goal Using Seed Experiment No. 52 Operational Procedure: 69 Years]

"She completed all planned stages in one year. Is this normal?"

[Normal, there is a chance of this happening.]

"Then doesn't someone like her make probability theory a joke?"

[No.]

[Because someone will bear the burden.]
