The Madness of the Martial Soul System

Yan Shaozhe sped all the way to his office with Wang Yan in tow.

Ji Siyuan sat cross-legged in meditation, nine lotus seeds hovering around his body as spiritual energy gathered naturally.

Huo Yuhao was able to benefit from this as well.

Her cultivation speed was ten percent faster than when she practiced alone.

This was merely the residual effect on Huo Yuhao, not the impact on Ji Siyuan himself.

"The two of them are certainly diligent."

There was no need to distinguish who possessed the Ultimate Fire martial soul.

The Fire Lotus was simply too obvious.

Yan Shaozhe could not suppress the corners of his mouth from curling upward.

An Ultimate Martial Soul, an absolute Ultimate Martial Soul.

This flame was far more scorching than Ma Xiaotao's; even with the boost from her Evil Fire, it could not compare to the quality of the flames Ji Siyuan currently displayed.

If it were only slightly stronger, he would not have dared to confirm it.

But this was not just a small margin stronger—it was vastly superior.

Ji Siyuan opened his eyes and saw Wang Yan standing with a middle-aged man.

Wang Yan stepped aside to let Yan Shaozhe take the lead: "This is our Dean Yan."

Yan Shaozhe gestured for Wang Yan to step back: "Teacher Wang, thank you for allowing the academy to discover such a genius ahead of time. I believe you will also be able to serve as an excellent teacher in the Inner Court."

This was the reward for Wang Yan.

Wang Yan bowed in gratitude and stepped aside, as the next part was what truly mattered.

Yan Shaozhe smiled slightly and walked up to Ji Siyuan: "Student, I am Yan Shaozhe, Dean of the Martial Soul Department at Shrek Academy. May I have your name?"

"Ji Siyuan."

"Student Ji Siyuan, I sensed your flames while you were meditating just now, and I can tell you quite clearly that this is the legendary Ultimate Martial Soul.

Perhaps you do not know what an Ultimate Martial Soul represents, but I can guarantee that you are a one-in-a-million genius. In the future, you will surely achieve the rank of Title Douluo, and perhaps even become an invincible powerhouse in this world."

Tang San: This man has a decent eye for talent. It is a pity his assessment of you is still too low. Your goal should not merely be to become an invincible Title Douluo.

Yan Shaozhe could not hear Tang San's voice; he stared straight at Ji Siyuan: "Although your soul power is still low, as the Dean of the Martial Soul Department, I absolutely have the ability to increase your Innate Soul Power. I will help you become a powerful Soul Master as quickly as possible."

Huo Yuhao raised her hand timidly: "Dean Yan, may I say something?"

A soft, sweet voice rang out, and only then did Yan Shaozhe remember there was someone else present: "And who are you, student?"

"I am his roommate, Huo Yuhao."

"What is it you wish to say?" At this moment, Yan Shaozhe did not yet know that she was also a super genius. It was simply that she had not yet revealed it.

"Student Ji Siyuan actually only awakened his martial soul a few days ago. If you don't believe me, you can ask Senior Brother Bei Bei and Teacher Tang Ya; they should be fourth-year students now."

"Just awakened his martial soul? But aren't you at level 15 soul power?" Yan Shaozhe looked at Ji Siyuan in disbelief; his perception could not be wrong.

It was definitely level 15 soul power; there was no way it could be faked.

Ji Siyuan did not intend to hide it: "That's right, I am at level 15 soul power, but that doesn't have anything to do with me having awakened my martial soul only a few days ago, does it?"

"Even if your first soul ring was a thousand-year ring, it wouldn't be possible to increase your soul power by five levels, would it? Could it be that you also absorbed a soul bone?" Wang Yan proposed a possibility, but to Yan Shaozhe's ears, it raised a different question.

In saying that, Wang Yan had already presumed he possessed Innate Full Soul Power.

What did he mean by his first soul ring being a thousand-year ring? In the optimal soul ring configuration, wasn't the first ring supposed to be around 400 years? Even a strong one would be impressive at 500 years. What did he mean by a thousand years?

Ji Siyuan activated his martial soul, and a purple soul ring floated around his body: "Not at all, that Flame Demon Lion didn't drop a soul bone."

Yan Shaozhe could hear the sound of his own throat; his heart was beating twice as fast as usual.

If all of this were true, then Ji Siyuan's Innate Soul Power was definitely not as simple as level 10; it exceeded level 10.

In history, the only ones to exceed level 10 were those with the Six-Winged Angel, and that was only with the blessing of a god.

In this era, such martial souls had long since vanished.

But now, one had appeared—this was not just a top-tier martial soul, it was a god-tier martial soul!

"Student, the Dean believes you." Yan Shaozhe could no longer suppress his excitement: "Student Huo Yuhao, Teacher Wang Yan, could you please allow me to speak with Student Ji Siyuan alone?"

Huo Yuhao looked at Ji Siyuan nervously, and after the latter nodded, Huo Yuhao left.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm: Hmph, what a blind human. He can't see your Twin Martial Souls, nor can he see how powerful your first soul ring is.

It was a pity that it was also blind, unable to see Ji Siyuan's Twin Martial Souls.

When you reach level 20, I will make that human treat you the same way! Hmph.

"Brother Sky Dream, can I also have an Ultimate Martial Soul?"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm: Absolutely, and it will certainly be no worse than that brat's.

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, which did nothing but eat and sleep, neither understood the gap nor knew that its host needed help.

"Then I will be able to stand by Siyuan's side in the future." The young girl was already fantasizing about the future.

Wang Yan still remembered the initial purpose of Ji Siyuan and the other two: "Dean Yan, can I take Huo Yuhao to Dean Qian Duoduo? He might have talent in Soul Tools."

"You can. Just say he's a student I recommended."

A mere level 11 kid, sending him to the Soul Tool department wouldn't hurt.

Wang Yan was delighted and left with Huo Yuhao.

Yan Shaozhe sealed off the entire office: "Student Ji Siyuan, Teacher Wang told me your martial soul is the Geocentric Red Lotus. Can you tell me which side of your parents' lineage it comes from?"

This was quite clear: "It's from my mother. Her martial soul is the Geocentric Red Lotus."

A wave of sadness spread, this emotion couldn't be faked. Even though he hadn't heard of powerful individuals with the Red Lotus as a martial soul, Yan Shaozhe was willing to believe him.

However, he misunderstood Ji Siyuan's meaning. Ji Siyuan hadn't said his mother's martial soul was the Geocentric Red Lotus.

"I just told you that you have an Ultimate Martial Soul, and I don't think you've fully grasped my meaning yet. We at Shrek will do our utmost to help you grow, including but not limited to ensuring you reach Titled Douluo before the age of forty, as well as providing all your future spirit rings and spirit bones.

Furthermore, I can personally guarantee you a suitable set of 100,000-year spirit rings and spirit bones! This is just our basic treatment; for higher treatment, I will convene a meeting for you. This meeting will absolutely grant you even better treatment!"

He was naturally referring to a Sea God Pavilion meeting. Such terrifying talent, unseen for ten thousand years, could not be satisfied by the treatment he alone could offer for Ji Siyuan's growth.

Ji Siyuan: "Only benefits and no cost?"

Yan Shaozhe: "Absolutely no cost!"

"Dean Yan, I may be young, but I'm truly not foolish. With such excellent treatment, you're telling me there's no cost?"

Yan Shaozhe: "Of course, we'd prefer you stay at the academy rather than serve the Four Great Empires."

The hidden agenda revealed. After making an investment, naturally, there should be a return.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, he sought Tang San's opinion: "Uncle, should I agree to this?"

Tang San: "This is a good way to realize your talent, though I don't particularly like this school."

There was no helping it; the first impression was already set. Not to mention Tang San's extreme dislike for [the author] and Gangzi, Zhou Yi's outrageous actions from the start made it difficult to develop any good feelings.

Ji Siyuan also knew he couldn't outright refuse. On someone else's turf, he had to find a different approach.

"Dean Yan, I won't hide it from you. I have my own goals and things I must do. Staying at Shrek is impossible for me, but I can help Shrek achieve some improvements and make changes."

His not directly agreeing caught Yan Shaozhe by surprise. So many people wanted to stay at Shrek, yet he refused?

Sincerity might not always yield more, but Yan Shaozhe couldn't say anything.

"Regarding you, I personally may not be qualified to assess. I will put it forward for discussion at that meeting. Can you tell me what you intend to do?"

"Actually, I can't. What I need to do is beyond the academy's capabilities!"
