"Damn, this Dai Mubai really knows how to play."

"He's got a tigress at home, so sneaking out isn't exactly wrong."

Everyone simply ignored Ye Tianyun and Tang San.

Those two were far too serious about their work, making them quite boring to watch; Dai Mubai, on the other hand, lived a colorful life.

Dai Mubai's face shifted; he wanted to explain himself, but he was terrified of the Live Broadcast Room.

The lessons taught by the Live Broadcast Room previously had been brutal.

Liu Erlong was furious and reprimanded him sternly:

"Dai Mubai, I never expected you to be so debauched. I must keep a strict eye on you; your lifestyle is truly indulgent."

Dai Mubai felt immense pressure, especially when he saw the look of disappointment in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.

"Zhuqing, listen to my explanation. They seduced me; I resisted them firmly the whole time."

Unfortunately, Dai Mubai's excuses only made Zhu Zhuqing more disappointed.

Even Liu Erlong couldn't help but sigh. She really wanted to kick this brat Dai Mubai out of the academy.

He had done something wrong and still refused to admit it.

"Young Master Dai Mubai, what's so good about that woman? Can she be as considerate as us?"

"Sigh, of course she isn't as considerate as you, but her Martial Soul is useful to me. Once I'm done using it, you'll still be my little darlings."

Dai Mubai's face turned green. It was over. With the Live Broadcast Room playing it out, he knew better than anyone whether it was true or false.

Everything the Live Broadcast Room showed was real.

In the parallel timeline, Ye Tianyun chuckled:

"I never imagined Dai Mubai was this kind of person. What a scumbag."

Below him, his capable subordinate Zhu Zhuqing remained silent; she had long since forgotten about Dai Mubai.

Meanwhile, in the main timeline.

Zhu Zhuqing's expression grew even uglier as she sneered at herself:

"So I was just being used. He only cared about my Martial Soul Fusion Skill. I see it all clearly now."

Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and the others felt a sense of dread as they watched Zhu Zhuqing's reaction.

Given the current situation, the relationship between Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing had shattered. How were they supposed to perform their Martial Soul Fusion Skill in the future?

Without the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, how could they face those powerful academies?

"Mubai, listen to my sophistry—bah, listen to my explanation! This was all the Live Broadcast Room's..."

Dai Mubai stopped halfway through his excuse, not daring to continue, as thunder gathered in the sky, ready to punish everyone present at any moment.

The others glared at him with murderous intent. They had been implicated last time; if Dai Mubai caused trouble again, they would kill him.

Dai Mubai hated the Live Broadcast Room to the core.

In response, the Live Broadcast Room signaled that if he dared to curse it, it wouldn't hesitate to expose his secrets.

However, the Live Broadcast Room didn't care about Dai Mubai and continued the stream.

[Ignoring other matters, on this day, Ye Tianyun was training with the second team when he suddenly heard a member mention Soul Bones.]

[Because someone had been killed for a Soul Bone and the bone was plundered, Ye Tianyun suddenly had an idea. He possessed a Soul Bone himself and naturally understood its advantages. If he could create an Artificial Soul Bone, he would be one step closer to crushing Little Trash.]

???

Tang San's face changed again, and he questioned it publicly:

"Can Soul Bones really be created by humans? How is that possible?"

After yesterday, he had learned about Soul Bones; they were considered miracles of nature, with an extremely low probability of appearing.

It wasn't as if no one had ever tried to research the creation of artificial Soul Bones, but no one had ever succeeded.

Now, it wasn't just Tang San; even Yu Xiaogang began to doubt:

"Impossible. This must be the Live Broadcast Room talking nonsense. How could he possibly research an Artificial Soul Bone? Throughout history, how many geniuses have there been? They were the wisest people of their time, and even they didn't succeed. How could Ye Tianyun possibly succeed?"

Beside them, the eldest of the Soul Saint Brothers was quite sharp.

He was the first to think of a reason, nudging Yu Xiaogang's shoulder and asking with a smile:

"This 'wisest person of the time' you're talking about—it wouldn't happen to be you, would it? Have you researched Artificial Soul Bones?"

Yu Xiaogang: "..."

He hated smart people, especially those smarter than him, who could instantly read the subtext of his words.

Indeed, this peerlessly intelligent person of the era who had researched Soul Bones was none other than himself.

Back then, his Martial Soul quality was relatively low and his strength improved slowly, so he had wondered if he could research Soul Bones to increase his own power.

In the end, after reading through the records of Martial Soul Hall and spending a significant amount of money, he hadn't discovered a single thing and was eventually forced to give up.

And now, the Live Broadcast Room was telling him that Ye Tianyun was also researching Artificial Soul Bones—and was highly likely to succeed.

Liu Erlong saw Yu Xiaogang's sorrow and spoke to comfort him:

"Brother Xiaogang, don't overthink it. I have always believed in you; you will definitely be able to research Artificial Soul Bone. Ye Tianyun will not succeed."

Unfortunately, whether or not he would succeed was far from something Liu Erlong could decide.

On the other side, Pope Bibi Dong of Spirit Hall was suffering from a headache. The Guidance Method, Battle Armor technology, and the Spirit Ring Age Enhancement Method—she hadn't managed to research any of them, and she didn't have a single clue.

Ye Tianyun had already begun a new research project.

Artificial Soul Bone.

Just hearing the name made it sound high-end.

Bibi Dong immediately looked toward the Platinum Bishops below, as well as those Spirit Hall Scholars and Offering Pavilion Scholars.

"You all..."

Before Bibi Dong could even finish her question, these scholars spoke up in unison.

"Your Excellency the Pope, we cannot do it."

"That's right, many people have indeed researched the technology for Artificial Soul Bone, but no one has ever succeeded."

Bibi Dong remained silent. As expected, there was a gap between people.

Ye Tianyun was an absolute genius, while the people under her command might be geniuses in cultivation, but they were far too lacking in other aspects.

"Enough. This Empress will provide you with ample funding. Study it well; if you manage to research it, this Empress will not let you down."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Pope."

In the sky, the Live Broadcast Room continued.

[Ye Tianyun suddenly discovered that he didn't have enough time. There was too much to research. Sometimes, being too smart is a trouble, because there are too many courses.]

"..."

Everyone was collectively speechless.

Being too smart is a trouble? They only felt that they weren't smart enough.

[Therefore, Ye Tianyun decided to speed up his research. He focused his mental power on his own Evil Eye Spirit Bone, wanting to penetrate the mysteries of spirit bones.]

[Besides that, he also captured a few Spirit Beasts to study their skeletons, hoping to penetrate the mysteries of spirit bones.]

In the footage.

Ye Tianyun had transformed into a scientist, holding several bones in his hands as he conducted his research.

If this were the real world, he would definitely be branded a pervert.

But countless people on the Douluo Continent admired Ye Tianyun's spirit of research, as well as his intelligence and talent.

[Looking at the other side, while Ye Tianyun was conducting his research on spirit bones, Tang San was also researching Battle Armor.]

[Tang San always believed he was smart, so he poured his energy into the research of Battle Armor, wanting to develop his own Battle Armor so he could defeat Ye Tianyun.]

Outside the footage.

The Tang San of the Main Timeline was very satisfied and muttered to himself:

"I believe in the other me; he will definitely be able to research Battle Armor."

This confidence stemmed mainly from the ardent expectations he held for himself.
