Soul Beasts to Hunt

A new day.

Xiao Changge refined a large number of pills and sent plenty of medicine to the restaurant owner. The rules remained the same as before.

He had stayed up late to rush these out, so the quality would not be poor. With Electrolux helping him, it definitely would not be poor.

"Changge, since I still have classes to teach, I cannot help you hunt Soul Beasts. We will arrange for a Level-Nine Soul Engineer to help you hunt them.

"You have no objections to that, right?"

"Of course I have no objections, Hall Master Hongchen. I completely agree. After all, you are the master of Mingde Hall and the academy's dean. You handle countless affairs every day—how could you possibly have time to hunt Soul Beasts for me?

"You still have many things to do. How could I trouble you?"

Xiao Changge could understand it as well. After all, in his previous life, being a principal had been a very busy profession. At least at his school, the principal had been extremely busy, dealing with countless matters every day.

There had been very little time to rest, let alone manage everything else. Principals were generally very busy, so he understood.

Hall Master Jing Hongchen had many matters to handle. He definitely did not have the time.

"First, tell us what kind of Soul Beast you want to hunt. We will help you hunt it in that Soul Beast's habitat. But you must remember that Soul Beasts are a necessary resource for us to obtain Soul Rings. Excessive hunting will leave many Soul Masters without enough Soul Beasts in the future.

"So you had better not hunt excessively. Just hunt the Soul Beast you want when you encounter it."

It seemed that the people of the Sun Moon Empire had something in common with the former Spirit Hall. Spirit Hall had also known that if Soul Beasts were hunted excessively, then once there were no Soul Beasts left, Soul Masters would lose their meaning, and there would be no way to obtain Soul Rings. That was why Spirit Hall had prohibited excessive hunting of Soul Beasts.

Once excessive hunting of Soul Beasts was discovered, punishment was required. But at that time, the Upper Three Sects and the two great empires had joined forces, leaving Spirit Hall unable to do anything about those nobles who hunted excessively. It could only restrain relatively small factions, such as the Lower Four Sects.

Or small families without Soul Douluo or Titled Douluo.

The Sun Moon Empire, on the other hand, took this matter very seriously.

Unfortunately, Shrek did not think that way. They clearly had a Soul Beast student, and she had even become a god alongside Tang San—the Soft-Boned Douluo, Xiao Wu. Yet they still hunted Soul Beasts as usual and never sought a solution. It was truly laughable.

Xiao Changge thought to himself.

"In any case, take a look first. Here are the various Soul Beast Compendiums collected by our Sun Moon Empire, including compendiums for all kinds of flying Soul Beasts. They contain information on both flying-type and fire-attribute Soul Beasts."

Xiao Changge then began examining the information in the compendium. He found many excellent flying and fire-attribute Soul Beasts, some of which even possessed Phoenix bloodlines dating back to ancient times, though the Phoenix blood within them had become extremely thin.

One type of Soul Beast caught Xiao Changge's attention.

The Natural Azureflame Bird. This Soul Beast relied primarily on physical techniques rather than flames for its attacks. However, its flames possessed an extremely special ability: they could heal themselves, treat others, and mend their own wounds.

This ability could be said to be extremely formidable. Although its flames lacked destructive power and lethality, they possessed powerful healing capabilities.

"Changge, choose this Soul Beast. Its self-healing ability is indeed remarkable. Once you gain this Soul Beast's ability to heal itself and others, you will be able to heal others while also healing yourself. This is very important to you. Moreover, we can hunt this Soul Beast's Beast Flame as well.

"This Soul Beast's flames should also possess the ability to heal others. That way, you will become a powerful warrior with healing abilities. When you face Shrek in the future, you will have a greater chance of victory."

"Then it will be this Soul Beast."

Electrolux and Xiao Changge both settled on this Soul Beast. Healing ability was simply too important. The ability to naturally heal one's own body might not have any killing power, but it could heal. Who would not fear a healer who possessed multiple kinds of flames and healing abilities?

Furthermore, he already possessed many types of beast flames, and even had Heavenly Flame Sub-Flames. There was absolutely no need to worry that his flames would lack power.

"I want to choose this Soul Beast. Its healing ability is indeed formidable. That way, my Martial Soul can gain healing abilities as well."

"If you want to choose this type of Soul Beast, I have no objections at all. However, this Soul Beast is not in the Star Dou Great Forest. It can only be found in a forest far away, within the Heaven Dou Empire. Therefore, we must go to the Heaven Dou Empire.

"So no matter what, we must be careful.

"The people of the Heaven Dou Empire are extremely hostile toward Soul Tools. Whether Soul Masters or ordinary civilians, many of them reject Soul Tools.

"Although some civilians have accepted Soul Tools, there is still widespread rejection. So sometimes, we will have to travel on foot."

Jing Hongchen's view of the Heaven Dou Empire remained one of disdain. After all, Soul Tools represented the future. The stronger Soul Tools became, the more ordinary people would be able to rise up and resist Soul Masters.

They could give many ordinary people the ability to fight against those Soul Masters.

Yet he simply could not understand what the people of the Heaven Dou Empire—including Soul Masters, nobles, and royalty—were thinking. Ordinary people could possess Soul Power too. As long as they had a Martial Soul, they could possess Soul Power. Even if their Soul Power was low, they could still use first- and second-level Soul Tools!

But the ordinary people of the Heaven Dou Empire were simply extremely resistant to Soul Tools. He truly could not understand it. Soul Tools were not going to eat them, nor would they cause environmental pollution or destroy their homes. They were merely more advanced technology that could change their living environment and provide them with a better one.

In any case, he truly could not understand what the people of the Heaven Dou Empire were thinking. Why did they reject Soul Tools so strongly?

"In any case, make your preparations first. I will send someone to go with you. Then I will assign a Soul Douluo to accompany you on the hunt. You are only hunting a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, after all. There should be no need to send a Titled Douluo-level Soul Master. We have plenty of Soul Douluo in the Sun Moon Empire."

That was indeed true. Soul Douluo were not particularly rare in the Sun Moon Empire. For people of the Sun Moon Empire, who took medicine every day, reaching the Soul Douluo rank was not difficult.
