Level 20? Acquired the Second Soul Ring?
Upon hearing this, Xue Sheng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened suddenly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
He lost his grip on the teacup and with a "crack," he instinctively pinched it, creating a clear crack.
Tea dripped onto his hands through the crack, but he seemed completely unaware.
"When you first enrolled, your Soul Power was only level sixteen, right? Only half a year has passed! In just half a year, you've broken through from level sixteen to level twenty?!"
Xue Sheng's voice unconsciously rose, "Your cultivation speed... isn't it a bit too fast?! Even among those geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power, few can reach your speed with ample resources!"
Not only him, but also Ye Lingling and Ye Linyuan, who were standing to the side, knew about Lin Mo's breakthrough.
But upon hearing Xue Sheng personally utter the specific number "level four in half a year," their gazes involuntarily refocused on Lin Mo once again.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Lin Mo remained calm; he had already prepared his explanation.
With a thought, his Soul Power surged, and Charmander with two bright Yellow Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet and appeared beside him, affectionately rubbing against his trouser leg.
" Director Xue, Elder Ye, Sister Lingling, as you all know, my Charmander Martial Soul is in a rather special situation."
Lin Mo began to explain calmly, "Its initial state was just an egg, which hatched after my Soul Power reached level ten."
Perhaps it is precisely because of the unique nature of this Mutated Martial Soul that, in my daily cultivation, besides my own Calm Mind to accumulate Soul Power, the existence of the Charmander seems to provide me with an additional boost to my cultivation speed.
He paused, glanced around at the thoughtful expressions on everyone's faces, and then added, "That's why I often release the Charmander."
This will not only not affect my Soul Power cultivation, but will actually make my cultivation efficiency higher than when Calm Mind alone.
"Moreover, I don't know if this is the reason, but my current cultivation speed seems to be... much faster than those classmates I know who Innate Full Soul Power."
"A student with Innate Full Soul Power?" Xue Sheng had already forgotten about his teacup; he keenly caught the information in Lin Mo's words, and his eyes widened even more.
"You have geniuses with Innate Full Soul Power by your side? And more than one?"
As the director of admissions, he had the keenest sense for talent and directly fell into his professional habit.
Before Lin Mo could answer, Ye Linyuan chuckled and teased, "Xue boy, are you at it again? You can't resist anything you hear about a genius."
Xue Sheng wasn't embarrassed at all that her secret had been exposed; she simply stared intently at Lin Mo.
Lin Mo smiled. "Yes, Director Xue. Those two were my classmates at the Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy. They are indeed Innate Full Soul Power."
He changed the subject, his tone becoming somewhat certain. "However, based on what I know about the two of them, it's highly unlikely they'll come to Heaven Dou City to enroll in the intermediate academy."
"Oh? Why is that?" Xue Sheng pressed, clearly not wanting to miss any opportunity to recruit geniuses.
Lin Mo organized his thoughts and replied, "One of the students with Innate Full Soul Power has already become a disciple of Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang."
"Oh, that's the one whose Martial Soul is Luo Sanpao, who also possesses External Beast Martial Soul and Grandmaster with considerable research in Martial Soul Theory."
"Although they are both now One-Ring Soul Master, when I left Nuoding City, they didn't seem to have any plans to leave Nuoding Academy in the near future to pursue further studies at an intermediate academy."
Moreover, the two of them have an extremely good relationship and are inseparable; if they were to enroll in university in the future, they would undoubtedly choose the same college.
At this moment, Ye Lingling, who had been listening quietly to the side, had a hint of doubt flash in her purple eyes and asked softly:
"Since that Grandmaster's Martial Soul is the same as yours— External Beast Martial Soul —and he accepted that Innate Full Soul Power as his disciple, why didn't he accept you back then?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo smiled frankly and replied, "He did indeed extend an olive branch to me back then, but... I rejected it."
Ye Lingling glanced at him, but didn't press the matter further; only a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes.
After learning about the situation, Xue Sheng's face showed a hint of regret, but he quickly recovered and turned his attention back to Lin Mo.
His expression turned serious as he looked at Lin Mo and asked earnestly, " Lin Mo, now that you have successfully obtained your Second Soul Ring and become a Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster..."
According to the academy's regulations, you have actually met the graduation requirements of the Heaven Dou Intermediate Soul Master Academy.
He paused, then offered an even more Captivate option. "To go a step further, with your current cultivation level and talent, I can act as your guarantor right now and recommend that you directly enter the Heaven Dou Royal Soul Master Academy to study."
I can assure you that with your qualifications, entering the Heaven Dou Royal Academy will be no problem at all.
Lin Mo did not answer immediately, but instead turned his gaze to Ye Linyuan beside him and said respectfully:
"I am deeply grateful for Director Xue's kindness. However, I would like to hear Elder Ye's opinion regarding the upcoming arrangements."
Ye Linyuan was quite pleased with Lin Mo's respectful attitude. He stroked his beard and smiled, then said to Xue Sheng:
" Xue Sheng, I appreciate your kindness on behalf of Xiao Mo. However, there's no need to be in such a hurry."
He glanced at Lin Mo, then at Ye Lingling beside him, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable air of authority:
However, before that, the two of them will need to stay with me for a while.
He paused deliberately, his gaze falling on Lin Mo with obvious expectation. " Lin Mo is now not only an apprentice at the clinic, but also my formal disciple, and will inherit my medical skills in the future."
Some things need time to be refined.
Not long after returning from the Soul Hunting Forest, Ye Linyuan had a talk with Lin Mo Moshen, formally expressing his desire to take him as a disciple, rather than an ordinary apprentice.
Lin Mo considered that although his own Body Martial Soul had already reached the stage of Five Viscera and Six Bowels, further research in the future would require medical knowledge.
Moreover, since Elder Ye had indeed taken good care of him during this period, he readily agreed.
Upon hearing Ye Linyuan's words, Xue Sheng was first taken aback, then her face lit up with barely suppressed joy.
Because of his past connection with Ye Linyuan, he visited the clinic many times, trying to persuade Elder Ye to let Ye Lingling first enter the Heaven Dou Intermediate Soul Master Academy as a transition, and then naturally advance to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
After all, any Soul Master Academy needs talented students to maintain its reputation.
Unfortunately, Ye Lingling herself seemed uninterested in enrolling, and with Elder Ye Master Ye in charge, he couldn't push her too hard and could only offer suggestions occasionally.
Hearing Elder Ye personally promise that both of them would enroll in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the future, and that Lin Mo would even be accepted as Elder Ye's disciple, was an unexpected and delightful surprise!
"That's wonderful!" Xue Sheng exclaimed with a smile. "With your words, Elder Ye, I'm completely relieved!"
After a moment's thought, he made the most appropriate arrangement:
"In that case, Lin Mo and Lingling, you two will register your names here at the academy from now on."
I will keep your student status, but you don't need to attend classes like other students. You can mainly study with Elder Ye at the clinic.
When you feel the time is right and you wish to formally enroll in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, come find me directly, and I will handle all the formalities!
This arrangement undoubtedly gave Lin Mo and Ye Lingling the greatest freedom, allowing them to continue their studies with Ye Linyuan without hindering their future entry into the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Lin Mo and Ye Lingling exchanged a glance, both seeing approval in each other's eyes.
Lin Mo nodded and bowed to Xue Sheng, saying, "Yes, thank you for the arrangement, Director Xue."
"Haha, great! It's settled then!" Xue Sheng was overjoyed.
With this, Lin Mo and Ye Lingling's whereabouts for the next period of time were decided.
