Before long, Yang Podi followed Teacher Li to the Education Committee building. Sure enough, there were quite a few people sitting inside, including Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School, Sword Douluo and Ning Rongrong, and even the three members of the Education Committee of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
After Yang Podi entered the Education Committee building, he asked everyone to bow, " Yang Podi of the Breaking Clan greets His Highness the Crown Prince, Sect Master Ning, Senior Sword Douluo, and the three senior members of the Education Committee."
Among the crowd, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi, and the three education committee members all smiled and nodded. Ning Rongrong sat in her seat looking innocent and carefree, while Sword Douluo kept his eyes narrowed, seemingly unconcerned about what was happening outside.
Crown Prince Xue Qinghe smiled and said, " Yang Podi, we meet again. Please sit down and let's talk. Make yourself at home at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
Yang Podi glanced at the crowd, found a seat, and sat down. "I wonder what business Your Highness has with me?"
Xue Qinghe remained calm and composed. " Yang Podi, I've heard that you're already level 35 at such a young age, which should meet the requirements for participating in the Soul Master Tournament Soul Master Tournament two years. I wonder why you're unwilling to participate?"
Yang Podi didn't hesitate at all. "Your Highness, I have always cultivated within my family and lack combat experience. I feel that I am still somewhat inadequate and I am afraid I will not be able to participate in the Soul Master Tournament two years from now. However, Your Highness can rest assured that I will definitely lead the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team to participate in the Soul Master Tournament Competition seven years from now, and I guarantee that I will not let Your Highness down."
" Yang Podi, aren't you being a little too modest? With your age and Soul Power Level, you can be considered the number one genius in the Heaven Dou Empire. I can completely grant you the request you made to the three education committee members. You will be in charge of organizing a Soul Master team to participate in the Soul Master Tournament in seven years. You will be responsible for all the selections, and no one else may interfere."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."
" Yang Podi, may I ask you a question?"
"Your Highness, please ask away. I will answer to the best of my knowledge."
"Could you share your cultivation experience? At the age of 12, you've already reached level 35 in Soul Power, making you seem to be the fastest Soul Master to break through to Soul Elder in history. And judging by your cultivation speed, you'll probably be the fastest Soul Master to break through to Soul Ancestor as well."
Yang Podi pretended to think for a moment before speaking, "Your Highness, my cultivation is actually very simple. Every morning I practice spear techniques, I study in the Breaking Clan's internal classroom in the morning, and in the afternoon I do things like weighted mountain climbing and running. After training until I'm exhausted every day, I take a medicinal bath. The effect of cultivating in the evening is relatively better."
"This is also our clan's cultivation method, no different from others."
Xue Qinghe seemed a little curious. "Is it really that simple, Yang Podi?"
"Your Highness, my cultivation progress is that simple. Perhaps it's because I'm usually quite diligent, and I hardly take any breaks throughout the year, practicing exercise and meditation almost every day."
Xue Qinghe nodded as well. " Yang Podi, you not only have outstanding talent, but you also persevere in your cultivation. You are truly a genius in cultivation."
"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness."
Seeing that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe had finished speaking, Ning Fengzhi, who was standing to the side, also spoke up, "Classmate Yang Podi, I am Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School. This is my daughter, Ning Rongrong. From what you just said, you must have trained very hard to have such a fast cultivation speed. However, according to what you just said, with your level eight Innate Soul Power, you shouldn't be able to cultivate so fast, right?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Podi couldn't help but curse inwardly: Ning Fengzhi, you old fox.
Yang Podi seemed to think for a moment before speaking, " Sect Master Ning, to be honest, I am born with superhuman Divine Power. Ever since Martial Soul Awakening and obtained my First Soul Ring, I have always carried weights on my body to train. Except for the time when I take a medicinal bath, I basically never take them off. Now the weights on my body have reached 130 kilograms."
Upon hearing these words, Ning Fengzhi's expression changed slightly, as did Xue Qinghe and the three education committee members beside him: At such a young age, carrying such a heavy load—aren't they afraid of damaging their health?
Ning Fengzhi spoke again, " Yang Podi, I didn't expect you to have such perseverance at such a young age. You are sure to have a bright future. Could you tell me why you are working so hard in your cultivation?"
Yang Podi closed his eyes and pondered for a moment before speaking with a resolute expression, " Sect Master Ning, I am a direct descendant of the Breaking Clan. My sole purpose in life is to revitalize the Breaking Clan and bring glory to our family. I will not rest until I achieve this goal."
Ning Fengzhi smiled upon hearing this, " Yang Podi, you are wholeheartedly devoted to your family. With your talent and perseverance, you will surely achieve your goals in the future."
"Thank you, Sect Master Ning."
Yang Podi then bowed again to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe: "Your Highness, Sect Master Ning, I shall take my leave now."
Just as Yang Podi was about to leave, Sword Douluo suddenly opened his eyes. " Yang Podi, please wait a moment."
"Greetings, Senior Sword Douluo Sword Douluo. May I ask what guidance you may offer?"
Amid Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe's confusion, Sword Douluo spoke again, "Could I take a look at your Martial Soul and Soul Ring?"
Yang Podi's expression changed slightly, and then he summoned his Martial Soul, the Soul Breaking Spear, displaying two yellow and one purple Soul Ring.
Sword Douluo carefully examined the Soul Breaking Spear and its Soul Ring, and couldn't help but say, "Not bad, your Martial Soul -Soul Breaking Spear is quite impressive."
Could you tell me what kind of Soul Beast each of your Soul Ring absorbed? And what the specific age of that Soul Beast was?
Upon hearing Sword Douluo's words, Yang Podi's expression changed instantly, but he still spoke up, "Senior Sword Douluo, my First Soul Ring is the Qian Jun Ant, with Soul Ring age of 500 years. My Second Soul Ring is the Purple-Eyed Demon Tiger, with Soul Ring age of 800 years. My Third Soul Ring is the Gold Crocodile King, with Soul Ring age of 2,000 years. These are the three Soul Ring I have absorbed so far."
Upon hearing these words, Ning Fengzhi, Xue Qinghe, and the three education committee members present all had a sudden change in expression. They all had some understanding of Martial Soul and Soul Ring, especially the three education committee members, who had conducted in-depth research on Soul Ring absorption and naturally understood the difficulty Yang Podi in absorbing these Soul Ring.
Sword Douluo's expression changed slightly after hearing this. " The Qian Jun Ant, the Purple-Eyed Demon Tiger, and the Gold Crocodile King are all power-type Soul Ring, and all of them are top-grade Soul Ring, all exceeding the absorption limit of Soul Ring. No wonder your Soul Breaking Spear is like this. It's a pity your Martial Soul is not Sword Martial Soul."
After saying these words, Sword Douluo closed his eyes again, as if nothing had happened.
Yang Podi bowed again. "Senior Sword Douluo, this junior takes his leave."
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi spoke again, "Classmate Yang Podi, if you have time, you are welcome to visit my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect anytime. The gates of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will always be open for you."
"Thank you, Sect Master Ning. I'll take my leave now."
After Yang Podi finished speaking, he left the Education Commission building directly.
