Wang Dong's Martial Soul, Alchemy

"Wang Dong! Huo Yuhao! Slow down!"

Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao ran alongside the main group, but the students behind them couldn't keep up.

"You..."

"You..."

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong looked at each other.

"Hmph!"

"Hmph!"

The two still couldn't stand each other; even though they were running together, they found it difficult to get along.

The reason Huo Yuhao couldn't get along well with Wang Dong was that when Wang Dong first arrived at their shared dormitory, he immediately acted like the boss and set down rules, which made Huo Yuhao very uncomfortable and reminded him of his time at the Duke Mansion.

Wang Dong was slightly dissatisfied with Huo Yuhao, yet he still acknowledged the other's ability.

On the surface, they were still at odds, but the truth was that they had already begun to gradually accept one another.

Zhou Yi watched the running students at this moment, paying particular attention to Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao.

"You guy, if you rely on soul power alone, you are no match for me."

"I am definitely not inferior to you!"

Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao began to sprint, and just as Huo Yuhao was about to reach his limit, "Oh no!" Wang Dong released his martial soul, the Radiant Goddess Butterfly!

It's actually the Radiant Goddess Butterfly. That's impossible, the Radiant Goddess Butterfly... Legend says this martial soul is extremely rare, a god-tier existence. Furthermore, it is said that this martial soul only appears on females. But the problem is, Wang Dong is clearly a boy. Why would he be a girl? Wang Dong's appearance is indeed delicate and handsome, but the issue is...

Wait, if Wang Dong is a girl disguised as a boy, it makes much more sense. But why? Would the academy elders agree to let a girl disguise herself as a boy and enter a male dormitory?!

Could it be that Wang Dong comes from a formidable power?

Zhou Yi had already begun to speculate, as in her view, it was highly likely that Wang Dong hailed from a super-power. It was said the Radiant Goddess Butterfly only appeared in girls, though no other conditions were mentioned. Regardless, anyone possessing this martial soul must come from an incredibly powerful background.

There was also the key point: if he were supposed to be a girl, yet was allowed to disguise himself as a boy in the male dormitory without being exposed by the Shrek teachers, there was only one possibility: Wang Dong came from a power so influential that even Shrek, the number one academy on the continent, had to give them face.

This was the most likely theory.

"Forget it, this matter is ultimately beyond my control. If my guess is true and Wang Dong is a girl, it's not my place to interfere. Even though she is in my class, there are some things I simply cannot manage. After all, she might have a powerful background, and there are some formidable students I cannot touch, right?"

Zhou Yi was helpless; she could only bully the commoner students. If Wang Dong's background was truly powerful, it was best not to provoke him. There were some students with backgrounds so strong that even she couldn't afford to offend them. In the past, she could rely on Shrek, but there were existences even Shrek dared not provoke, and those were people Zhou Yi could not afford to cross.

"My god, this guy's martial soul is so beautiful. I've never seen such a beautiful martial soul. Seeing it on such a handsome boy really gives me the feeling that he's like a soft, beautiful girl..."

The students in the class began to whisper. After all, the way Wang Dong displayed his martial soul was truly stunning, and combined with his delicate features, he gave off a very soft and feminine impression.

"These are the materials for refining medicine. Refine a pill for me first so I can see how you go about it."

As the Hall Master of the Virtue Hall, Jing Hongchen understood the importance of medicinal pills. The Sun Moon Empire had developed advanced alchemy because their soul masters were not particularly strong; their most powerful soul master was currently only the level 94 Kong Deming.

He was rumored to be the closest person to a level ten soul master.

The Sun Moon Empire had once possessed a level ten soul master, and Kong Deming was the closest nine-level soul master to that rank, but the problem was that he had relied on a massive amount of pills to boost his progress in his early years.

The constitution of the people in the Sun Moon Empire seemed somewhat strange; once they reached the level 90 Title Douluo realm, their rate of improvement was much slower than that of the Title Douluo on the Douluo Continent.

This resulted in the Sun Moon Empire having almost no level 95 Title Douluo.

Regarding this, some scholars on the Douluo Continent speculated that it might be due to the Sun Moon Empire's physiology, combined with their choice to use pills to boost geniuses, which caused many of their talents to progress slower than those from the Douluo Three Kingdoms once they reached the Title Douluo level.

Another point was that due to long-term medication, many people lived as if they were in a medicine jar, and many infants were affected by their mothers from birth... so, those who know, know.

However, this view was not accepted by most, nor by the Sun Moon Empire itself. Yet, in order to increase their combat power, they were indeed increasing their knowledge of alchemy.

Now that he knew Zhong Kui could refine pills, he wanted to see what Zhong Kui's pills were like.

Soon, Zhong Kui took out a second-grade medicine cauldron from the Bone Flame Ring. This cauldron was one used by low-level alchemists from the world of Battle Through the Heavens.

"Hall Master Hongchen, have you ever heard of beast fire?"

Zhong Kui did not intend to use his Heavenly Flame yet. After all, such things were creations of heaven and earth, and revealing his trump cards too early was unwise. Sometimes, it was best to endure and keep one's cards hidden.

"Beast fire? This Hall Master has never heard of it."

"To put it simply, it is the fire within the bodies of spirit beasts. Flames are also graded. Powerful beast fire can assist in alchemy and can also be used in combat. Let me demonstrate for you."

Zhong Kui then revealed the Peach Blossom Flame. This was a fifth-grade beast fire, which was already considered top-tier on the Douluo Continent.

Furthermore, the Peach Blossom Flame was extremely gentle and would not harm others.

"This flame feels very powerful to me, yet it is so gentle..." The Hall Master of the Virtue Hall was shocked upon seeing it.

"The fire of a spirit beast must come from a fire-attribute beast. I obtained this from one. This kind of flame can help us refine pills more conveniently. I will start the demonstration for you now."
