"Let this little fellow test his Soul Power."

Mu En's words brought Yan Shaozhe back from his shock, and he quickly bowed to Mu En.

"Yes, Teacher."

Yan Shaozhe looked at the Soul Power detector in his hand. This was a new product developed by the Soul Tool department. As long as the Soul Power was below level thirty, this detector could accurately measure the Soul Master's Soul Power.

But now...

Yan Shaozhe looked at the phantom behind Lu Heqiu, feeling uncertain.

This little fellow's Martial Soul.

It might be more than level thirty!

Just the aura emanating from the Martial Soul was enough to threaten to overturn the surrounding furniture. If the Sea God Pavilion weren't formed from the Golden Tree, it would likely have been affected by this little fellow's aura.

Lu Heqiu took the Soul Power detector from Yan Shaozhe's hand. The detector instantly emitted a dazzling light, and the numbers on the instrument rapidly climbed, as if it couldn't withstand Lu Heqiu's power at all.

Before even reaching its limit, the detector suddenly shattered, sending sparks flying.

The people around stared in astonishment.

Yet, not a single person doubted the authenticity of Lu Heqiu's Soul Power.

They merely stared at the phantom behind him, trying to estimate what level he had reached.

What is a monster? This is a monster!

True monsters are born, requiring no cultivation process!

"Don't use your full strength."

"None of that counts as Soul Power. Use the power that naturally arises from your... Martial Soul."

Mu En saw the abnormality in Lu Heqiu and reminded him.

If the power in his spiritual sea were fully unleashed, even the most accurate detector wouldn't be able to measure his Soul Power level. He wanted to know how much power naturally emerged when this phantom was unsealed.

This was the power that belonged to this world.

As for the rest...

It could be used in battle.

But not when unsealing.

If the power within Lu Heqiu that didn't belong to this world could truly be used for unsealing, he wouldn't have been sealed in the first place. The Heavenly Dao rejected external powers that made it feel threatened.

He wasn't like the Mysterious Heaven Skill, a power that grew from weakness to strength.

And it wasn't a time when the world had no master.

This world had been turned into the territory of a certain main god from the God Realm, and it would instinctively reject powerful external forces. The world would naturally impose restrictions on foreign powers.

Soon.

Yan Shaozhe brought back another brand-new detector and handed it to Lu Heqiu. This time, Lu Heqiu didn't use his own power but, as Mu En had said, injected the power that naturally arose within him into it.

That phantom was called a Martial Soul, and the power that appeared with the phantom was affectionately called Soul Power.

Lu Heqiu poured all of this Soul Power into the detector.

The detector operated naturally.

The speed was much slower than last time, with no sign of explosion.

Ding!

A precise number appeared on the detector.

10.

Seeing the displayed number, everyone visibly relaxed. This little fellow's strength was monstrous, but at least compared to directly blowing up the detector, it wasn't that monstrous!

He was a genius, a prodigy, but at least he was still somewhat human.

Lu Heqiu casually tossed the detector aside. This thing was simply inaccurate; it could only measure his limit talent allowed by this world, not his true potential.

This number only proved that Lu Heqiu could hunt for his first Soul Ring within the world's allowance, and nothing more. In a real fight, even Ma Xiaotao might not be his opponent.

Could this prove that a level ten could defeat a Soul Emperor?

That's too much of a level jump!

"Are you still not satisfied, little fellow?"

"Innate Full Soul Power!"

"You're already more talented than over ninety percent of Shrek's students. Do you know that even this continent's number one academy has rarely produced students with Innate Full Soul Power?"

Xuan Zi said to Lu Heqiu with a hint of teasing, offering him a chicken leg he was holding. Lu Heqiu didn't even glance at him, his gaze returning to Mu En.

Mu En also nodded gently, explaining in a tone of explanation.

"Innate Full Soul Power is indeed very rare."

"Moreover, innate level doesn't mean everything. You've already leaped too far ahead."

"If you hunt your first soul ring, there's a high chance you'll break the first seal within your body."

When Mu En spoke to Lu Heqiu, he completely dropped the tone of addressing a junior. Instead, he treated Lu Heqiu as a peer, as if he had seen through Lu Heqiu's extraordinary origins.

Ma Xiaotao opened her mouth but said nothing.

There had never been a soul master under six months old in the history of soul masters.

Furthermore.

If he were to hunt for a soul ring, what kind of soul ring should he hunt for this little guy?

Ten years? A hundred years?

"Shao Zhe, please take this little fellow to the Star Dou Great Forest."

"His physical strength is no weaker than a Soul Sage. When you hunt for a soul ring, discuss it with him and follow his requirements."

Mu En spoke to Lu Heqiu, who was standing on the table. His voice had become somewhat weak, but his ancient eyes still looked gentle, showing no hint of regret.

Yan Shaozhe agreed from the side, not noticing that Mu En had spoken again.

This time, only Lu Heqiu could hear the words.

"In the future, if you break your seals, I hope you will protect Shrek Academy for a while, as repayment for Shrek Academy's protection of you."

This voice was compressed into a line by Mu En and fell into Lu Heqiu's ears.

Lu Heqiu stood on the table and nodded gently at Mu En.

The four of them withdrew.

Leaving Mu En in a quiet space.

The Golden Tree swayed again, but this time it did not protect Lu Heqiu's body. Instead, it fell upon Mu En, nourishing him as his sea of consciousness was greatly depleted.

As soon as they were outside.

Ma Xiaotao couldn't wait to ask.

"What does Elder Mu mean?"

"Let this little guy find a soul beast of suitable age himself!? What if that little guy goes looking for a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

Yan Shaozhe's eyes also revealed a complex expression at this moment. He looked at Xuan Zi beside him and respectfully said, "May I ask Elder Xuan to accompany me?"

Yan Shaozhe had not considered that this little guy would choose a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

After all, Elder Mu had said that his body was not weaker than a Soul Sage, and the normal seventh soul ring was around fifty thousand years old. The little guy would at most choose a soul ring around fifty thousand years old.

What Yan Shaozhe worried about was that hunting a fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast would require entering the mixed zone or even the inner circle.

If he were to encounter a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast by bad luck.

Then it would be very difficult for him, Yan Shaozhe, to protect the little guy and Ma Xiaotao.

Entering such a place.

It would be best to have another Super Douluo to be safe!
