Fallen Heart Flame Sub-Flame, Remote-Controlled Soul Tool Car

"Congratulations, Xiao Changge. You are now a member of the Sun Moon Empire's Royal Soul Engineer Academy."

"Thank you very much, Hall Master Hongchen." Xiao Changge finally felt at ease. At the same time, he had received his reward, which had already appeared inside his Storage Ring: a Sub-Flame of the Fallen Heart Flame.

Its special value was this: in The Unrivaled Tang Clan, it was more of a "cultivation cheat" than a "weapon."

In the original work, the Fallen Heart Flame's most essential function was not burning people, but maintaining a Heart Flame within the body that automatically tempered energy.

Placed in The Unrivaled Tang Clan, planting a wisp of Sub-Flame within a Soul Master's body would have an effect similar to a weakened version of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower—it would noticeably boost the cultivation speed of Soul Masters and Soul Ancestors, though its effects would diminish after the Soul King rank. This was quite similar to the logic of a Soul Engineer Academy like Jing Hongchen's, which relied on resources to pile up cultivation.

Therefore, if Mingde Hall obtained it, they would most likely store it as a rare flame source for assisting cultivation rather than treat it as a strategic weapon. If Shrek got hold of it, it would be more suitable to place it in the inner courtyard's cultivation rooms as a "budget Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower."

"Here are study materials on Soul Tools. We will soon arrange for you to begin formally learning Soul Tool technology. If you truly are not suited to studying Soul Tools, we will let you study as a specially admitted student. In any case, we will ensure that you remain at the academy. We believe you are qualified to become a Super Douluo.

"After all, you possess Innate Full Soul Power. Even though Shrek crippled you, you were still able to obtain Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings for both your first and second Soul Rings. That is your potential, so we will not treat you poorly."

Thank you for the praise. Honestly, I relied on cheats, but my Innate Soul Power isn't bad either. If it weren't for Shrek, I'd probably be even stronger and more outstanding by now.

"You should rest well today. Tomorrow, report to my class. I will personally teach you. After all, you are a future genius. Even if you are not suited to studying Soul Tools, I will accompany you in battle and temper your strength."

Jing Hongchen recalled Kong Deming's words.

If this child really is that woman's child, then his status is extremely high, and...

Only a small number of us senior officials know about that matter. You must nurture this child well. A top-tier Phoenix Martial Soul like his is also an excellent Martial Soul. Even making him desperately have children would be fine. That way, he could leave behind top-tier Martial Souls for the Sun Moon Empire. Even without relying on Soul Tools, the empire could possess top-tier powerhouses, which would also help with the plan to oppose the Douluo Three Kingdoms.

"In any case, get some proper rest first. This period has really been hard on you. We made you wait so long."

"Hall Master Hongchen, I know you were trying to investigate my identity and confirm whether I was lying. Of course I understand that, and I do not blame you. After all, I came from the Douluo Three Kingdoms. If a commoner or a genius with a top-tier Martial Soul from the Douluo Three Kingdoms suddenly wanted to join your Sun Moon Empire, anyone would be somewhat suspicious. I understand."

After hearing this, Hall Master Hongchen developed a more favorable impression of Xiao Changge. Such an obedient and sensible child had been crippled by Shrek. That was truly going too far, and it made him look down on Shrek even more.

Soon afterward, the two returned to their respective tasks. Hall Master Hongchen went to handle his own affairs.

Xiao Changge began preparing to absorb the Fallen Heart Flame's Sub-Flame.

Inside Xiao Changge's room.

"This thing can accelerate a Soul Master's cultivation speed, and it possesses formidable abilities as well... It is truly incredible. Even Holy Demon Continent does not have such a powerful flame. It is practically a law of the world itself..."

Electrolux was also astonished as he looked at the Heavenly Flame's Sub-Flame. Even though it was merely a Sub-Flame, it was still far stronger than many Beast Flames, even surpassing seventh- and eighth-tier Beast Flames.

It would only be more powerful on Douluo Continent. The top powerhouses of Douluo Continent might not even be as strong as a Dou Zong. Even God Kings were probably only at the level of Dou Zongs, while the Creator God was likely only a Dou Zun.

On Dou Qi Continent, in the true ranking of powerhouses, Dou Zuns were not worth mentioning. A Dou Zun could only establish a first-rate force on the surface, but truly first-rate forces were those that possessed Dou Shengs.

The ostensibly first-rate forces in the Central Plains were all established by Dou Zuns, but the problem was that they could only be considered second-rate.

First-rate forces were all established by Dou Shengs. Only with a Dou Sheng could one truly step through the gates of a first-rate force.

"Teacher, this flame is incredible. It can accelerate other people's cultivation as well, and it has many other abilities."

After Xiao Changge explained it, Electrolux could not help but admire it.

"It seems the gifts this world has given you are getting better and better."

Electrolux did not know of the system's existence. He merely regarded Xiao Changge's acquisition of these strange flames as gifts from the world, seeing him as this world's favored child, or perhaps the child of the plane.

"Now I will help you absorb this flame. At the same time, you must study Soul Tool technology properly. I believe you need to become a well-rounded talent. Only then can you help yourself take revenge. But I will say this again: revenge is fine, but do not implicate innocent people."

"I understand."

In the end, he did things as usual, absorbing the Fallen Heart Flame's Sub-Flame using the original method and the Flame-Devouring Backflow Array, a magic array for refining flames.

He soon succeeded in absorbing it, and Xiao Changge's Soul Power Level rose to level 30. Ordinarily, absorbing a Heavenly Flame Sub-Flame should have raised his strength even further, but this was Douluo Continent, part of the Douluo Universe.

Soul Power Level or strength? Once someone reached another multiple of ten, they had to absorb a Soul Beast's Soul Ring or use some similar method before they could continue growing stronger. This was a rule established by the God Realm to deal with Soul Beasts, while also selecting suitable people to enter their God Realm and continue maintaining the order of rule that benefited them.

"You have now reached level 30. You can go hunt for a new Soul Beast and obtain a new Soul Ring. After absorbing this flame, your strength has increased again."

"Now I need to report this. I also need to study some Soul Tool materials first. Let me research these materials and see whether I can make any powerful Soul Tools. Absorbing a Soul Ring can wait until tomorrow. Then I can ask Hall Master Hongchen to help me hunt a Soul Beast."

Xiao Changge began reading through the Soul Tool materials. As he looked through them, an idea came to him.

Could I make a remote-controlled car, like the ones from my original world? A remote-controlled Soul Tool car should be simpler, and it would be fun too. It could also do many things—things I could have the remote-controlled car do.
