The next morning, Qian Chen woke up early, while Zhang Lexuan was still asleep. Qian Chen quietly got out of bed and left a note for Zhang Lexuan: You rest, leave today to me.
Then, Qian Chen, riding on the Seven Kill Sword, went to the cafeteria, prepared a very nutritious breakfast for Zhang Lexuan, delivered it to Zhang Lexuan's room, and then went to the dean's office of the Martial Soul Department.
Faced with hundreds of official tasks to be processed, Qian Chen's three Sea of Consciousness operated simultaneously. Three tasks were laid out before him at once, and he simultaneously viewed all three, sharing what he saw and brainstorming solutions. The actual efficiency far exceeded that of three people working together, even surpassing that of six people working simultaneously.
Within an hour, the academy's official business was completed. Qian Chen immediately instructed an assistant teacher, "Go and fetch Elder Gong from the Soul Beast Garden, Dean Du Weilun, and Wang Yan, the dean's assistant recently promoted by Dean Zhang."
"Yes." The assistant teacher responded and left.
Soon, Gong Changlong, Du Weilun, and Wang Yan arrived at the office. The three approached Qian Chen Qian Chen, knowing he wasn't as gentle and approachable as Zhang Lexuan, and bowed in unison, saying, "Greetings, Dean Qian!"
Qian Chen nodded and said, "Alright, everyone, please have a seat."
"Yes." The three responded and sat down on the sofa in the dean's office. Gong Changlong spoke again, saying, "Dean, what brings you here today?"
"Here's the thing, Dean Zhang broke through her cultivation level last night and reached the Titled Douluo. I've decided to set off in the next couple of days to hunt down a suitable Soul Ring for her," Qian Chen explained.
Everyone knew that Zhang Lexuan and Qian Chen were a couple, they just hadn't held a wedding yet. The three of them stood up in unison and said, "Congratulations, Dean!"
"Sit down, I have something else to say. We're going to hunt for Soul Ring, and we don't know how long it will take. We might be quite busy during this time, as it's close to the end of the semester and the students will be on holiday. So, for the next period of time, you should communicate and coordinate with the homeroom teachers of each class to ensure that the work is completed before and after the holiday," Qian Chen said.
"Yes," the three replied again.
" Assistant Wang Yan, you were specially appointed as the Dean's Assistant by Dean Zhang. It seems Dean Zhang trusts you and recognizes your abilities."
Wang Yan immediately stood up and said, "This is all thanks to Dean Zhang's high regard for us."
Qian Chen waved for him to sit down and said, "After Dean Zhang and I leave, you will temporarily handle the matters in the Dean's office. Remember one thing: any problem that can be solved with Gold Soul Coin is not a problem."
"Yes!" Wang Yan said loudly.
After giving instructions to the three, Qian Chen left the Dean's office of the Martial Soul Department and went directly to the Soul Tool Department, to the Soul Tool Manufacturing Laboratory that Qian Duoduo had prepared for him.
He Caitou saw Qian Chen arrive, he immediately put down what he was doing and went to greet him, saying, "Greetings, Dean Qian." In his heart, Qian Chen was truly too powerful. He could now stably manufacture Level 7 Soul Tool, and he could also make some less complicated Level 8 Soul Tool.
In He Caitou's eyes, Qian Chen was already an Level 8 Soul Engineer. But Qian Chen's evaluation standard was that of the Sun Moon Empire; he was at most a Level 6 Soul Engineer. Moreover, He Caitou had never seen many powerful Soul Tool blueprints.
"Okay, Caitou. I need to accompany my lover to hunt for Soul Ring during this time, so I won't be coming here. You can still stay here to use and learn in this Soul Tool manufacturing laboratory. But I have one condition: it must be kept tidy and clean."
"Yes, Dean Qian." By this time, He Caitou was more convinced of Qian Chen's words. Back then, the production laboratory was in complete chaos, and sometimes it would take a lot of time to find a certain tool or material.
Then Qian Chen came to the cabinet where he usually kept and made Soul Tool. One by one, the level 5 Level 6 Soul Tool, which were of fairly good quality, were lying quietly in the cabinet.
Qian Chen didn't even glance at the offensive and defensive Soul Tool, because such Soul Tool were useless to him and Zhang Lexuan, who were both Titled Douluo. Qian Chen was looking at the Soul Tool that would make life easier and improve their quality of life.
Qian Chen quickly stored the dozen or so target Soul Tool into his Storage Soul Tool before leaving the Soul Tool Department. Then, after checking the time, Qian Chen went directly to Shrek City and bought some outdoor supplies and food.
When Qian Chen returned to his and Zhang Lexuan's residence, Zhang Lexuan was already awake. After seeing the note Qian Chen Qian Chen left and eating the breakfast he had prepared for her, she went to sunbathe in front of the residence.
" Lexuan, you're up? Do you want to rest a little longer?" Qian Chen asked with concern.
" Qian Chen, I'm also Soul Master, and Titled Douluo at that. My body isn't that weak. Seeing how nervous you are, it's really nothing," Zhang Lexuan said earnestly.
"Of course I believe you Lexuan." After saying that, Qian Chen came to Zhang Lexuan's side and sat down with her. He spent the whole afternoon with her. The two of them tacitly avoided talking about cultivation, Soul Beast, or Shrek. They spent the afternoon together like an ordinary married couple.
This tranquility was broken when Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao returned in the afternoon. Seeing Qian Chen and Zhang Lexuan sitting leisurely in the living room, so affectionate, made the three of them, who already longed for love, extremely envious.
"Teacher, teacher's wife, we're back," the three said in unison.
"Yes, you've all had a long day of classes. You should rest when you need to, or meditate and cultivate when you need to," Qian Chen said. Zhang Lexuan nodded in agreement, indicating that Qian Chen was right and that Huo Yuhao and the other two should take a break.
"Teachers, have you eaten? How about I make you something to eat?" Huo Yuhao asked.
Huo Yuhao's cooking skills were indeed quite good, especially his barbecue. Seeing Zhang Lexuan's hearty appetite, Qian Chen couldn't bear to disappoint Zhang Lexuan and said, "Alright, Huo Yuhao, thank you for your hard work."
Huo Yuhao quickly took out the cooking tools and ingredients. His specialty was still grilling, and when he took out the grill, Zhang Lexuan, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up.
Qian Chen couldn't help but sigh, thinking that Huo Yuhao was probably the best barbecue expert in the Douluo Continent. The next moment, Qian Chen's Seven Kill Sword flew out and plunged into the water of Sea God Lake with a "plop". The Silver-Blooded Dragonfish in Sea God Lake suffered again, and soon twenty or thirty of them were stabbed by Qian Chen.
Zhang Lexuan hurriedly said, " Qian Chen, that's enough, we can't finish all of this." Qian Chen chuckled and said, " Lexuan, you don't know, I made a special Soul Tool for storing food in the Soul Tool Department. Since you like it, we'll roast a few more for you to take with you, so you can eat them when you're craving them while Soul Hunting in the Star Dou Great Forest."
Zhang Lexuan smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
Qian Chen looked at Huo Yuhao: " Yuhao, thank you for your hard work today."
"It's nothing, just a small matter." Seeing that his teacher and his wife both approved of his barbecue skills, Huo Yuhao replied happily.
Qian Chen and Zhang Lexuan thoroughly enjoyed their dinner. The next morning, as soon as the sun rose, Qian Chen took Zhang Lexuan's hand, boarded the Seven Kill Sword, and headed towards the Star Dou Great Forest.
Above the Divine Realm, Xiao Wu was not as fortunate as Zhang Lexuan. At this moment, she was enduring pain and discomfort all over her body, and was personally dressing Tang San in his God King attire, which symbolized supreme authority.
" Third Brother, Xiao Qi has been gone to the Douluo Continent for so long, how is she doing?" Xiao Wu asked cautiously.
