Enrollment and Physical Examination

A yellow soul ring slowly rose beneath Qin Chuan's foot. At this point, it was still acceptable—soul masters with Innate Full Soul Power were rare, but not unheard of.

But then, events took a turn beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

Following Qin Chuan's first hundred-year soul ring, a second soul ring appeared right after. When the purple light of that ring fell across Jing Hongchen's face, his pupils contracted, and his expression shifted slightly.

"Child, what's your name, and how old are you this year?" Jing Hongchen asked eagerly.

"My name is Qin Chuan. I'm six years old."

"Six? That's impossible!" Jing Hongchen found it hard to believe. He then whipped his head toward Bibi Dong and asked, "How did little friend Qin Chuan get his second soul ring?"

Bibi Dong smiled faintly and transmitted her voice with soul power: "This child of mine is quite fortunate—he has Twin Martial Souls. When he awakened and tested his soul power, he shattered the crystal ball used for testing. Subsequent tests revealed that he actually has Innate Full Soul Power at level twenty."

At these words, Jing Hongchen drew a long breath, his eyes flickering with light. When he looked at Qin Chuan again, the latter felt as if this Jing Hongchen might "eat" him alive.

"Your child, my academy accepts him. And we will nurture him as a priority!" Jing Hongchen declared solemnly, thumping his chest.

Bibi Dong nodded. "I trust in your academy's integrity."

"Then please follow me. Today, as the head of this academy, I will personally handle the enrollment procedures for your three children." Jing Hongchen laughed heartily, in excellent spirits.

In full public view, Qin Chuan had only revealed his soul rings. The appearance of his Death Spider Emperor martial soul had been cut short the moment it emerged.

Death Spider Emperor, Soul Devouring Spider Emperor, Undead Angel.

With this martial soul lineup, Qin Chuan would be a surefire future number one at the Holy Spirit Cult.

Zhong Liwu, the cult leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, was a terminal case of "genius collector" syndrome. Anyone he set his sights on would be forcibly taken in, and after joining the Holy Spirit Cult, they would often lose their past memories, becoming completely under Zhong Liwu's control.

Zhong Liwu's wife, Feng Ling, was the best proof of that.

"Who is that person? To receive a personal reception from the hall master?"

"No idea. Never seen him before."

"..."

Jing Hongchen held an extremely high status in the Sun Moon Empire. His position as Mingde Hall's master alone was enough to make countless soul engineers feel out of reach. Everyone understood that Mingde Hall was a golden name.

"Lin Jiayi."

Lin Jiayi, the dean of academic affairs, was overseeing the new student enrollment process nearby. When he heard Jing Hongchen call his name, his stout body shot over to Jing Hongchen at an eighty-kilometer-per-hour sprint.

"Present. What are your orders, Headmaster?"

"This young friend Qin Chuan is a Twin Martial Soul user, a once-in-a-century rarity. He is now a student of our academy."

"And this child named Ye Guyi is ten years old, already breaking through level thirty in soul power. As for this Qian Hanxue, our academy's enrollment age is twelve. She's past that range, but this time I'll make an exception and accept her as well."

Jing Hongchen deliberately gave Bibi Dong face, accepting even Qian Renxue, who was over the age limit.

This was all because of Qin Chuan's Twin Martial Souls.

At these words, Lin Jiayi stood dumbfounded for two seconds before snapping back to reality.

"Take these three children to complete their enrollment procedures, and give them a physical examination while you're at it. Afterward, bring them all to my office."

Lin Jiayi suppressed his excited emotions and quickly replied, "Yes, Hall Master. The three of you, please follow me."

After Qin Chuan, Qian Renxue, and Ye Guyi left with Lin Jiayi, Jing Hongchen looked at Bibi Dong and smiled. "You need not worry. Entering the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy requires a simple physical examination beforehand—it's absolutely harmless to the body. Before that, how about I take you on a tour of the academy?"

Jing Hongchen could tell that the lady before him was definitely a Title Douluo-level powerhouse. Otherwise, these three children couldn't possibly be so outstanding.

Even if he couldn't win her over, building a good relationship with her wouldn't be a loss.

"In that case, I'll trouble Headmaster Jing Hongchen to lead the way."

Jing Hongchen laughed heartily. "Right this way..."

The examination room.

Lin Jiayi took the badge hanging from his neck from his chest and touched it to a disc-shaped object in front of him. With a soft beep, the metal door before them slid silently open to both sides.

The space was a full hundred square meters, housing several large soul tools.

Lin Jiayi led them to a large cylindrical soul tool and introduced it. "This is the academy's examination room. Every student who enters the academy must undergo a physical test. But rest assured, this device will not harm your bodies. During the test, please remove any soul tools or other metal items on you."

The many large soul tools displayed in the examination room were things Qin Chuan, Qian Renxue, and Ye Guyi had never seen before.

Especially Qian Renxue. From the moment she entered the city, everything from ten thousand years in the future had brought her immense visual shock.

The device before them was cylindrical, a full two and a half meters tall. Qin Chuan stepped onto it as Lin Jiayi instructed.

"Relax. I'm starting now." Lin Jiayi smiled slightly, then walked to the side of the device and pressed his palm into a recessed groove. As he channeled his soul power, a layer of white light lit up at the top of the soul tool.

The light wasn't harsh—it was soft. After scanning from Qin Chuan's head to his feet, some data appeared on the display screen.

Ye Guyi and Qian Renxue quickly crowded over to look.

"Bone age: six years. Body strength: level fifty. Body resilience: level fifty. Soul power fluctuation: level twenty-three. Height: one meter thirty. Weight: 30 kg. Left arm length... Attached soul bone: one, right hand palm bone. No other soul bones attached..."

All the information was complete, including soul power level and body strength, listed with perfect clarity. Even the Golden Dragon Claw that Qin Chuan had absorbed just a few days ago was detected.

Lin Jiayi recorded as he marveled, "Six years old with level twenty-three soul power, plus a right hand palm bone. Kid, your future is limitless. The academy will definitely nurture you as a priority."

Qin Chuan smiled but said nothing.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy was in opposition to Shrek Academy. In the future, the Sun Moon Empire would launch a war to unify the entire continent. Qin Chuan needed Snow Hatred Value, so naturally, he would be at odds with Shrek Academy. In a sense, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy was Qin Chuan's future identity badge, and even more so, a cradle for training soul engineers for the Martial Soul Hall of the parallel time and space.

Next, Qian Renxue and Ye Guyi stepped onto the device in turn.

"Bone age: ten years. Body strength: level thirty-six. Body resilience: level thirty-one. Soul power fluctuation: level thirty-one. Height: one meter fifty-four. Weight: 31 kg. Left arm length... No soul bones attached..."

"Bone age: fifteen years. Body strength: level fifty-one. Body resilience: level sixty. Soul power fluctuation: level forty-four. Height: one meter sixty-eight. Weight: 41 kg. Left arm length... Possesses two soul bones: head and left arm..."

The data for Ye Guyi and Qian Renxue were printed out one after another. Once everything was done, Lin Jiayi compiled the records and smiled gently at the three before him. "Welcome to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy."
