Seeing the almost petrified expressions of shock on everyone's faces, a sly and smug glint flashed in Meng Hongchen's eyes.
She withdrew her immense Soul Power and terrifying Soul Ring, and softly parted her lips. "I have successfully passed the first three trials of the Ice God Six Trials."
His cultivation level thus broke through to level 84, the Soul Douluo.
After he finished speaking, the conference room fell silent once again.
A moment later, gasps, gasps, and incredulous mutterings erupted, almost lifting the roof off!
The way everyone looked at Meng Hongchen completely changed; their previous shock was quickly replaced by a wave of fervent envy.
Xiao Hongchen darted to Kong Xuan's side in a flash, completely abandoning his usual arrogant demeanor.
He rubbed his hands together, a fawning smile plastered on his face, and said in a sly, low voice, "Um... good brother-in-law! Look, with our relationship, how about you help me think of a way to Godhood Inheritance?"
His words were half-joking and half-serious, but the expectation in his eyes was genuine.
Before Kong Xuan could speak, Meng Hongchen had already sat back down next to Kong Xuan, giving her older brother a disgruntled look. "Brother! Do you think the Godhood Inheritance is like cabbage on the street? It's not something you can just ask for and have!"
Xiao Hongchen immediately pointed at his younger sister and feigned heartbreak in front of everyone. "Look at this girl! She's got a sweetheart, and she's completely ignoring her own brother!"
His exaggerated performance immediately drew laughter from everyone. Everyone knew that the siblings had a very deep bond, and this was just their usual joke.
After the laughter subsided, Kong Xuan's expression turned serious again. He looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice, "In the Douluo Continent today, finding a complete divine inheritance is indeed as difficult as ascending to heaven."
He knew all too well how strictly the God King Tang, who reigned high in the Divine Realm, "controlled" the path to godhood in the mortal world.
It is nearly impossible for a deity not surnamed "Tang" and not under its control to be created.
However, Kong Xuan's appearance itself is the biggest variable, already disrupting the established trajectory of fate.
Thinking of this, he changed the subject. "However, anything is possible with human effort. If we discover any new miracles in the future, we will inform you all immediately so that everyone can have the opportunity to try."
"However, whether you can ultimately gain the approval of the gods and inherit the divine position depends on your individual talents, character, and the degree of compatibility with the gods."
"Hiss..."
The moment he finished speaking, a collective gasp filled the conference room.
Everyone held their breath for a moment, their eyes blazing with intense heat!
Although Kong Xuan spoke of it casually, as if he were merely mentioning a possibility for the future.
Everyone present inexplicably believed that Kong Xuan was the epitome of miracles in their eyes.
Although Kong Xuan only mentioned it casually, everyone felt that Kong Xuan could do it!
Kong Xuan's gaze finally settled on Huo Yuhao on the other side. He said, " Yuhao, your Martial Soul is the ultimate ice attribute. After the competition ends, you will travel to the Far North with Meng."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's body trembled almost imperceptibly. He immediately raised his head and looked intently at Kong Xuan.
Kong Xuan continued to explain, "Although the Ice God's Godhood Inheritance has been inherited by Meng, and you can no longer obtain the complete divine position, passing the Divine Examination will undoubtedly greatly benefit your strength."
Huo Yuhao felt his heart pounding violently in his chest. An overwhelming surge of excitement and elation rushed to his head, making his cheeks flush slightly.
The transformative changes Meng Hongchen has undergone in the past six months are right before our eyes!
He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his palms.
For Dai Huabin, merely beating him up was nothing more than scratching the surface and hardly constituted true revenge!
He needs a stronger, more absolute power to complete that final reckoning!
"Yes, Brother Xuan!" Huo Yuhao's voice trembled slightly with excitement, but his answer was unwavering, "I will definitely not let this opportunity down!"
The others looked at Huo Yuhao with a hint of envy, but unfortunately they weren't ice-attribute Soul Master, so this opportunity was not for them.
Although teacher Ren Jun remained silent, he felt an indescribable excitement and honor welling up inside him.
Although Meng Hongchen was not a student he personally taught, the opportunity to witness a future god rise from his side was enough to excite anyone just by thinking about it.
Moreover, he also knew that Kong Xuan was also a successor to a divine position!
Moreover, he personally witnessed this boy grow up step by step to where he is today.
Perhaps, centuries from now, Ren Jun's name will be etched in the history of Soul Master, just like Yu Xiaogang, the theoretical Grandmaster of the first generation of the Shrek Academy?
After all, by then, he might be revered by later generations as the teacher of the gods.
The Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy was made even more lively by Meng Hongchen's powerful return.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the hotel's top floor, the students of the Shrek Academy all closed their eyes and concentrated wholeheartedly on their cultivation.
Although they knew perfectly well that their two days of arduous training would have a negligible impact on the battle, it was the only effort they could make.
However, while these young Soul Master were engrossed in their cultivation, they were unaware that the three accompanying academy teachers had quietly gathered together.
Wang Yan, who had just returned from outside, brought news about Yan Shaozhe once again.
In order not to affect the trainees' mindset for tomorrow's final, Cai Mei'er made a quick decision to temporarily block the information. At this moment, in this temporarily set-off secret room, there were only Wang Yan, Cai Mei'er, and Xuan Zi.
Wang Yan's expression was extremely serious. He took a deep breath and recounted his experience in the outside world. "Just like last time... I still couldn't see the messenger's face, only the voice transmission that resounded directly in my mind."
Meeting Xuan Zi's burning gaze and Cai Mei'er's barely concealed urgency despite her forced composure, Wang Yan dared not delay and immediately revealed the most crucial information. "They said Dean Yan will appear in the Western West Mountain west of Mingdu."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Zi and Cai Mei'er fell into a brief silence.
After a moment, Cai Mei'er raised her eyes. "That drop of blood containing Yan Shaozhe's original luminous aura last time couldn't be faked. The other party... might really have Yan Shaozhe's exact whereabouts."
She paused slightly, her brows still furrowed. "However, their identity and purpose remain shrouded in mystery; whether they are friend or foe is difficult to ascertain."
"Snort!"
Xuan Zi let out a deep snort, breaking the silence. A resolute glint flashed in his eyes. "Who cares what their purpose is! This is the only clue we have right now, and we must seize it no matter what!"
He knew that the key to whether Shrek Academy could clear its name and rebuild its reputation lay in finding Yan Shaozhe and uncovering all the mysteries.
He turned to Cai Mei'er and said with an unquestionable tone, "Tomorrow, you will stay and lead the children to the final competition."
"I'll personally go to West Mountain! If Yan Shaozhe really shows up, even if he's hiding deep underground in the mountain, he won't escape my senses!"
Upon hearing this, a flicker of struggle crossed Cai Mei'er's eyes. After a moment's hesitation, she said, " Xuan Zi, the situation in West Mountain is unclear; the enemy is in the dark while we are in the light."
"Should we... inform Kong Deming about this? If we can act together and support each other, it will be safer."
Xuan Zi hearing the name " Kong Deming," Xuanzi's brows furrowed instantly. Without a second thought, he abruptly flicked his sleeve and resolutely refused. "No need!"
"What danger could I possibly face if I personally take action? Even if West Mountain is truly a den of dragons and tigers, with a net spread wide in the Heavenly Net, with my cultivation level, do you think I can't break through and escape?"
He spoke with the absolute confidence befitting Level 98 Super Douluo.
However, deep in his mind, the image of Kong Deming unconsciously surfaced.
A sense of frustration welled up within him, and he muttered to himself, "Hmph, it's only those guys like Kong Deming who rely on spatial abilities that are troublesome..."
He firmly believed that as long as he didn't encounter a troublesome Space-type Super Douluo, even if he faced a true Limit Douluo, the other party might not be able to stop him if he wanted to leave!
Looking into Xuan Zi's eyes, there was an unquestionable, even somewhat stubborn, determination.
Cai Mei'er opened her mouth, but all her words of advice ultimately turned into a silent sigh, which she swallowed back.
She said no more, but the unease that lingered in her heart grew thicker and heavier, like a gathering of dark clouds.
