"If I could see a major breakthrough in Shrek Academy's Soul Tool Department before I disappear completely, I could close my eyes in peace even in death."
Mu En was no longer the man he had once been. He now placed great hopes in soul tools.
Shrek Academy had no shortage of powerful soul masters. If those powerful soul masters also had powerful soul tools to use, Shrek's strength would surely reach new heights.
Nothing else aside, if every Titled Douluo at Shrek Academy possessed several Level 9 Soul Tools, wouldn't their combat strength soar?
Besides, soul tools were already destined to be indispensable on the road ahead.
"Teacher, to be honest, I still don't understand why your attitude toward soul tools suddenly changed so much."
Yan Shaozhe fell silent for a moment before asking in confusion.
After all, throughout his childhood, everything he had been taught said that soul masters who mastered the ways of their martial souls were far more powerful in combat than soul engineers.
Even Mu En had once held that view.
By adulthood, that idea had already taken deep root in him.
Even if he wanted to change it, that truly wasn't something he could accomplish overnight.
In fact, it wasn't just him. Ninety-nine percent of Shrek's soul masters thought the same way.
As for the remaining one percent, they belonged to the Soul Tool Department.
Mu En spoke earnestly. "I once thought the same way you did, but lately, I've come around. Every soul master can use suitable soul tools to compensate for their own weaknesses. Perhaps soul tools were never as worthless as we imagined. At the same time, I hope you won't harbor prejudice against them. Whether they're soul rings, soul bones, or soul tools, they're all merely tools in the hands
