The Sea of Consciousness was now left with only Lin Xiu and Lin Fan; the others were either sleeping or busy with their own affairs.
"Fan." Lin Xiu stepped forward quickly, his voice soft yet carrying a hint of imperceptible reluctance as he called out to the person who was just about to turn and leave.
Lin Fan's footsteps halted. He turned to the side, a faint trace of confusion in his brow, and looked at him, asking, "What is it?"
"It's like this." Lin Xiu summarized what he wanted to say in his mind. "The Golden Spear Tiger was basically extinct by the time of the Dragon King, so I was thinking of seeing if I could convert a Golden Spear Tiger into a Soul Spirit through your era and then transmit it over to my side."
Hearing this, Lin Fan immediately understood what this guy was trying to do. "You're planning to exploit a time bug this way to give Lin Nuo the best Soul Spirit."
"Exactly." Lin Xiu nodded.
This behavior could be considered a very interesting experiment. As long as Lin Fan remembered these words today, he would definitely do it in the future. The quality of a Soul Spirit belonged to the soul level and could be transmitted through the Sea of Consciousness; it just so happened that they were all the same person, and their Sea of Consciousness was one and the same.
Moreover, they were people of the past. Changing the future was actually incredibly simple, and the beneficiary would always be only one person: Lin Nuo!
Lin Nuo finally agreed, "I understand. Leave it to me."
"Then thank you."
"No need to thank me. We are just souls separated by the river of time; we will merge sooner or later." After saying this, Lin Fan also turned and left the Sea of Consciousness.
Watching Lin Fan leave, Lin Xiu soon returned to the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Cult. He was also preparing to set off for Shrek Academy.
To be honest, the thought of intersecting with the era where Yun Ming lived made him feel a little excited. If he stepped on the future number one person of the continent to move forward, would it change the future of Lin Nuo's timeline?
He really started to get curious.
However, if he did this, some of the responsibilities in the future would need to be borne by Lin Nuo.
Lin Nuo: "?"
In the era of the Peerless Tang Sect, in the Sun Moon Empire, Lin Fan had already woken up from his dream. Looking at the aggressive Soul Tool teacher in front of him, he said somewhat helplessly, "Teacher, I apologize. I was too tired from researching Soul Tools yesterday."
"Heh~ then go stand in the back!" The teacher was so angry he could only say that. There was no helping it; Lin Fan was a genius with Innate Full Soul Power. In the Sun Moon Empire, such a person was a treasure, a reserve talent for a future Level 9 Soul Master.
Why hadn't the big shots from Ming Capital arrived yet?
Hearing this, Lin Fan didn't say anything. He picked up his notebook and pen from the desk, walked to the back, stood still, and then slowly opened it to record what Lin Xiu had just said.
Time was the greatest bug. They existed in the past, and this was Lin Nuo's most powerful trump card.
As for Soul Tool knowledge, he seemed to possess five other external brains, and his learning ability was extremely fast. He only had to glance at the Soul Tool knowledge on the blackboard to understand it instantly.
Or rather, this common knowledge was already useless to him.
He began to spin his pen, looking forward to the high-ranking officials of the Sun Moon Empire picking him up to the capital to meet the big shots there.
The teacher standing on the podium watched Lin Fan start spinning his pen. He was so angry he wanted to curse, but in the end, he held back. Geniuses were just like that; they had privileges. Besides, he also understood that the things he taught were truly trash, completely beneath the notice of this genius.
In the end, he was just too incompetent.
He was simply not worthy of being a teacher to such a genius.
The classroom door was pushed open violently. A tall, upright figure wrapped in a cold, sharp aura stormed in, abruptly cutting off the teacher's words on the podium. The person asked in a cold, hard tone, "Who is Lin Fan?"
As the words fell, the classroom instantly went quiet.
Standing in the back, hearing his own name, Lin Fan stopped the pen spinning at his fingertips. He raised his eyes, his tone calm and waveless: "I am."
The man's gaze swept over Lin Fan and then suddenly sank, landing on the teacher standing before the podium. His tone carried obvious displeasure: "Why did you make him stand there to listen to the lecture?" His eyes were sharp as knives, hiding undisguised questioning, as if silently challenging him: This is a genius with Innate Full Soul Power, and you dare to treat him like this?
The teacher was locked in place by this gaze, his whole body stiffening. He felt an extremely strong sense of oppression rushing toward him, pressing down on his chest until he felt stifled. The explanation that reached his lips couldn't be uttered as a single word. His face turned pale instantly, his heart went cold, and he vaguely realized that his job today was likely finished.
Just as the teacher was at a loss and the atmosphere in the classroom grew increasingly heavy, Lin Fan spoke slowly, his voice clear and firm: "It has nothing to do with the teacher. I was feeling sleepy just now and asked to stand in the back to wake myself up."
Hearing this, the man's tense expression eased slightly. He nodded slowly, his tone softening a bit as he said, "I see. Come with me. Elder Kong is waiting for you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the previously calm and waveless look in Lin Fan's eyes instantly brightened, hiding a trace of imperceptible surprise.
His Martial Soul talent had actually alarmed Elder Kong, a figure at the very top of the Sun Moon Empire. This was far beyond his expectations.
Lin Fan was led by the man into an empty classroom. At this time, an old man who looked only sixty or seventy years old was sitting there. Seeing him walk in, he gestured for him to sit opposite him.
Lin Fan didn't stand on ceremony and sat down opposite Kong Deming, the number one person in the Sun Moon Empire.
"Innate Full Soul Power, Body Martial Soul, an orphan. I didn't expect that such a talent as you would appear in such a remote place. I really didn't expect it." Kong Deming spoke first, looking at the Lin Fan in front of him.
A genius Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power could be said to be a hot commodity throughout the entire Sun Moon Empire. If nothing went wrong, the professions of Titled Douluo and Level 9 Soul Master were guaranteed.
Kong Deming had originally intended to let Jing Hongchen take the credit when he heard it was Innate Full Soul Power, but the moment he heard it was a Body Martial Soul, he understood that he had to take this child in himself.
Right now, this little guy only looked dazzling because of his Martial Soul and Innate Full Soul Power, but the future benefits of this guy would be immense, and he could even promote cooperation between the Empire and that sect.
Hearing Kong Deming's words, Lin Fan asked in return, "Senior, do you think my status is too low to go to the capital of the Sun Moon Empire?"
"If that is the case, then I can only go to the Body Sect."
Kong Deming had originally been thinking about how to cultivate Lin Fan in the future, but hearing this, he became anxious instantly. "Oh, little guy, that's not what I meant at all. I was just amazed that such a place could give birth to such a genius; I am actually overjoyed."
"I see. It seems I misunderstood." Lin Fan nodded, though in reality, he was just testing Kong Deming's attitude toward him.
If the attitude was good, he could start Plan A; if it wasn't, he would start Plan B. These were all life arrangements he had already thought out.
