Class Monitor! Maintain Classroom Discipline!

Everyone below pricked up their ears, not daring to even breathe loudly.

"First—"

"I'm going to give everyone an explanation of Soul Tools."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Soul Engineers below erupted into commotion, every face filled with barely contained excitement.

Xia Xuanchen clenched his fists tightly, while Zheng Zhan's breathing quickened.

Elder Kong was personally teaching them. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had made the trip worthwhile!

Kong Deming paused. Once the classroom had quieted down again, he continued in an even tone:

"Second—my newly accepted disciple. You should all have heard something about him."

Everyone below turned their gazes once more toward the white-haired youth standing beside Elder Kong, their expressions varied.

"He has established a Soul Engineer organization called Star Tower," Kong Deming said unhurriedly. "Taking this opportunity, this old man will ask on his behalf."

"Is anyone here willing to join?"

As he spoke, Elder Kong took a golden badge from his robes. The pattern upon it was precisely the same as the Command Spell on Ye Chenxing's hand.

The moment those words fell, a low murmur swept through the previously quiet classroom.

Kong Deming seemed not to hear it as he continued, "Those who join now will automatically become Star Tower's consecrated elders, with no achievements required. This organization will not bind you too strictly. Everything is voluntary, and ability speaks for itself."

At those words, everyone below furrowed their brows.

Join some child's make-believe organization? What a joke!

Which of those present was not a Rank Eight or Rank Nine Soul Engineer capable of making the empire tremble with a stomp of the foot? And they were supposed to lower themselves to become consecrated elders for some wet-behind-the-ears brat? What a ridiculous farce!

Everyone shook their heads, and several even wore openly disdainful expressions.
