"Your talent for Soul Tools is quite high. I never expected that fellow Yan would actually send me such a promising seedling."

Wang Yan listened from the side, feeling quite excited. If he could gain the appreciation of this person, then even if Huo Yuhao hadn't reached level 20 in his second year, he wouldn't be expelled.

As the Vice Dean of the Soul Tool Department, Qian Duoduo certainly had the influence to ensure that.

Qian Duoduo: "It's a pity, though; your Soul Power is still too low. Even for a Soul Master, one's Soul Power cannot be too low. Without sufficient Soul Power to support it, one cannot become a high-level Soul Master."

Wang Yan: "Dean Qian, he possesses a rare Body Martial Soul. Perhaps he might even undergo a second awakening in the future."

A second awakening was indeed crucial for a Body Martial Soul, but unfortunately, Shrek did not possess the capability to facilitate it.

That was a specialty of the Body Sect.

Qian Duoduo suddenly received a telepathic transmission: "How about this: come see me once every day. There are several senior disciples here; you can ask them if you don't understand something. I have important matters to attend to right now!"

After saying this, Qian Duoduo sped away.

Although he hadn't received a concrete promise, he had, at the very least, secured an opportunity.

Huo Yuhao was also satisfied.

"Teacher Wang, what did Dean Qian go off to do?"

Wang Yan had his suspicions about what could make Qian Duoduo so anxious, but he dared not be certain: "Big figures have their own considerations; we should just focus on doing our own jobs well."

Knowing too much and knowing too little were both inferior to knowing just the right amount.

Wang Yan looked in the direction where Qian Duoduo had departed: "Could it be that the talent of student Ji Siyuan has reached the point where it requires convening a Sea God Pavilion meeting?"

Inside the Sea God Pavilion, all the elder masters were seated.

Mu En was still lying on his recliner in the main seat.

With the arrival of Qian Duoduo, the Sea God Pavilion meeting officially commenced.

Mu En waved his hand, signaling for Yan Shaozhe to preside over the meeting, as he was the one who had requested it.

"The reason I called this Sea God Pavilion meeting is primarily for one of our new students, Ji Siyuan. He possesses an Ultimate Martial Soul!" Yan Shaozhe could not hide his pride.

These old fellows knew exactly what an Ultimate Martial Soul represented.

"Are you certain, Shaozhe? What is his Martial Soul?"

Verifying the information was the most important thing.

It would be a joke if they made a mistake.

"I might be wrong about other ultimate attributes, but his is Ultimate Fire; I absolutely cannot be mistaken. The flame temperature is far more scorching than Xiao Tao's. I believe that even if Xiao Tao were to discard or embrace her Evil Fire, it would still not be as scorching as his flames."

Ultimate Ice was absolute cold, and Ultimate Fire was absolute heat.

Over the years, Yan Shaozhe had studied flames extensively.

He himself possessed a Bright Flame.

While it couldn't be called ultimate, it was certainly powerful enough.

He could feel the gap himself.

Xuan Zi wiped his greasy claws: "What is his Martial Soul? Wouldn't it be easier to judge if we knew that?"

Yan Shaozhe gave a helpless, bitter smile: "His Martial Soul is the Geocentric Red Lotus. I have never heard of it."

"Geocentric Red Lotus?"

The stereotype of a lotus flower remained; although they were puzzled, they understood. There were thousands of strange things in the world, and the existence of special Martial Souls was inevitable.

"An unknown Martial Soul is likely a mutation. Who are his parents?"

"I don't know, and I didn't ask." Yan Shaozhe: "Elder Xuan, this is straying a bit from today's topic, isn't it?"

Xuan Zi: "Isn't it just to study this kid?"

"No, it's about what kind of treatment we should give him."

Lin Huiqun: "Although the current situation has become more urgent, haven't we had corresponding treatments for Ultimate Martial Souls for so many years? You still have the authority in this regard. You can give him a portion first, and then we will discuss a more detailed plan."

Yan Shaozhe: "Because there is another aspect I want to report to the elder masters first before deciding on his treatment."

Everyone looked at Yan Shaozhe, waiting for him to explain the details.

"He didn't awaken his Martial Soul at six years old; he awakened it just a few days ago. Bei Bei and Tang Ya can testify to this."

Everyone understood immediately; they were talking about the Soul Power level.

"So he used the Tang Sect's quota?"

Qian Duoduo suddenly felt something was off.

"No, he didn't use the Tang Sect's quota; the one who used the Tang Sect's quota is his roommate, Huo Yuhao. He himself entered through the regular path."

Only then did Qian Duoduo remember what was wrong; Huo Yuhao was the one who didn't meet the entry standards and used the Tang Sect's quota.

Thinking he had figured it out, he leaned back, then suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Isn't our admission requirement at least level 15? He just awakened his Martial Soul, so how did he reach level 15?"

The elder masters all doubted the authenticity of this: "Impossible. Even with Innate Full Soul Power upon awakening, it is absolutely impossible to reach level 15 in one step, unless he used various medicinal pills to boost his Soul Power, which would make his foundation somewhat unstable. That is indeed a problem."

Soon they found a reasonable path.

But Yan Shaozhe immediately retorted, "He didn't use any pills, and his first spirit ring is already a thousand-year one. I strongly suspect his innate soul power surpasses level ten!"

Surpassing level ten was a situation completely beyond imagination. The only reasonable explanation they could think of was that Bei Bei and Tang Ya were helping him set up a deception.

"That's impossible. Even with an Ultimate Martial Soul, it's absolutely impossible to surpass level ten innate soul power. No martial soul can achieve this."

"No, actually, there is."

There was no need to say more. Everyone understood why Yan Shaozhe had called this meeting.

Xuan Zi: "If it's true, then he is indeed worthy of us giving him higher treatment."

Behind everything was nothing more than the word "godhood."

One could still fight against limits, but against gods, there was no possibility!

The last time someone became a god was too long ago; people were no longer willing to believe that anyone could achieve godhood.

Yan Shaozhe: "Furthermore, Ji Siyuan explicitly stated he would not stay at Shrek."

This made things very difficult.

If you don't stay, then there's no need to give you top-tier treatment; normal treatment will suffice.

Mu En, who had been silent for a long time, spoke, "Bei Bei has already told me that his innate soul power did indeed cross level ten. I also felt his flame; it is indeed the Ultimate Fire, and the most powerful I have ever seen in my life."

Although the crowd was surprised that Mu En knew Ji Siyuan, they also believed his judgment.

"If you want to gamble on his potential, then don't consider whether he will choose to stay. That is considering his floor."

After speaking, Mu En did not provide an answer.

With this elder gone, who else could make the decision?

No one was willing to make this decision.

A god-level martial soul did not necessarily mean one could become a god.

Mu En looked at them and shook his head, "We at Shrek have been strong for so long, have you all forgotten that we are an academy, not a true power? What is the strength of an academy? It's having disciples all over the world!"

"I have assessed this child's character; he is not someone with ambitious intentions. Allocate resources to him in stages. Basic resources like Red Flame Fruit and Whale Rubber can be given to him. Make good plans for the future so he doesn't become disheartened."

"Yes, Teacher."

Since Mu En had made the arrangements, there was nothing more to say; they would simply follow his instructions.

Yan Shaozhe: "Teacher, their class teacher, Zhou Yi, has been suspended for reflection due to assaulting students. Wang Yan is substituting for now. Do we need to make any adjustments?"

Mu En: "No need. After the freshman assessment and class assignments, I will have Le Xuan become his class teacher. It is estimated she will not teach for too long either."
