"The Soul Master Tournament? Sounds pretty fun. Sister Yanyan, why don't you skip going back to the Heaven Dou Team One and team up with me? Let's take on all the heroes together."

Upon hearing about the Soul Master Tournament, Chen Mo acted as if she had found a new toy and insisted on participating.

Dugu Yan suddenly felt a headache.

She finally understood Chen Mo's predicament; this little devil was just too much of a handful.

Dugu Yan explained helplessly, "First of all, you have to be a student of a high-level Soul Master Academy. Only then will you have a chance to join an academy's team to participate in the Soul Master Tournament."

Secondly, a team for the Soul Master Tournament requires at least seven people, and even more substitutes are recruited to prevent accidents.

Finally, Little Mo, you need to understand that you are Immortal Cultivator, not Soul Master.

This is a competition for young Soul Master. Is it appropriate for you to participate?

Besides, with your flying sword, let alone the younger generation, even among the older generation, apart from Titled Douluo, who could be your match?

Chen Mo: "No, no, I want to go play."

Dugu Yan: "Little Mo, listen to me, don't be silly."

Chen Mo pursed his lips and said, "What's the big deal? We can just build a high-level Soul Master Academy directly."

As for the number of people, there's me, Sister Yanyan, Sister Lengleng, Sister Xiao Wu, and Sister Zhuqing, that makes five, right? If we bring my brother and Brother Yaodong in, that would be perfect.

And Soul Master? Besides you, who knows I'm not one?

"This..."

Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged glances. What she said seemed to make some sense, but they also had a vague feeling that something was not quite right.

Xiao Wu was still sleeping.

Dugu Yan had no choice but to use Chen Mo to put this little devil in her place, saying, "Little Mo, Sister Yanyan 'm not trying to discourage you, but if your brother Chen Mo knew you dared to act so recklessly, he might just drag you back to seclusion for cultivation again. So you'd better not think about such things."

After careful consideration, Chen Mo nodded and said, "My brother really can't know about this, otherwise he will definitely drag me back. So the team only has six members left, and we need to find another Soul Master to make up the numbers."

Dugu Yan was completely exasperated. Was the other person even listening to her?

Dugu Yan was truly exhausted and said, "What about the academy? Are you really planning to start your own academy?"

Or are you suggesting joining the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? The Heaven Dou Empire suffered heavy losses in the previous Heaven Dou War; they probably won't agree to your joining the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

Chen Mo said domineeringly, "I'd rather be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond. I don't want to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

I, Chen Mo, am determined to establish my own high-level academy, one that will be more powerful than any other academy.

I've already thought of a name: Moon Shadow Wind Spirit Academy. I think I've heard my brother mention it; he seems to be a member of Moon Shadow Wind Spirit.

Dugu Yan patted her forehead, wondering why she had told her about the Soul Master Tournament!

Ye Lingling said, "Establishing a high-level Soul Master Academy is not easy. It requires a recommendation from the Spirit Hall or the Upper Three Sects, and then approval from the king of the empire or kingdom. These things are not easy to obtain."

Chen Mo took out a flying sword and said domineeringly, "Could this get me a recommendation?"

Ye Lingling, sweating profusely, replied, "Perhaps."

Chen Mo then brandished a giant shield and asked, "Can we get approval for this?"

Ye Lingling was somewhat stunned, and replied, "Perhaps that's possible."

Chen Mo maneuvered his flying sword and shield around him, creating a series of whooshing sounds as they flew through the air.

Chen Mo said, "So, with this and this added, the matter of the advanced Soul Master Academy will be settled, won't it?"

Chen Mo continued, "When the time comes, I'll be the dean, and you'll be the vice deans and directors. We sisters will work together to make Moon Shadow Wind Spirit Academy bigger and stronger..."

In the end, the matter of the Moon Shadow Wind Spirit Academy was settled.

Given Chen Mo's stubbornness, once she's made up her mind about something, no one but Chen Mo can persuade her otherwise.

Yes, physical persuasion.

Over the next few months, Chen Mo and his group were busy establishing the Advanced Soul Master Academy.

Chen Mo obtained the recommendation letter and approval document quickly, without any obstacles whatsoever.

Chen Mo simply found a branch of the Spirit Hall and asked them to pass on a message to the higher-ups and get a letter of recommendation.

The next day, a Titled Douluo personally and respectfully handed the letter of recommendation to Chen Mo.

Moreover, even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect sent an elder to deliver a letter of recommendation.

Chen Mo was somewhat puzzled; she didn't recall ever contacting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

What Chen Mo didn't know was that since the Battle of Heaven Dou, Ning Fengzhi had designated Chen Mo and others' intelligence as the highest priority, giving them special treatment and prioritizing all information about them.

Therefore, after receiving intelligence that Chen Mo wanted to establish a high-level Soul Master Academy, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School immediately sent a letter of recommendation, and also expressed its willingness to provide venues and funds free of charge.

But Chen Mo refused them all, because Chen Mo had said that free things are always the most expensive, and Chen Mo had always kept that in mind.

As for the approval documents, Chen Mo hadn't even had a chance to apply for them when the two great empires and four great kingdoms presented them to him, and each country also gave him a piece of land with extremely rich resources to build the Chen Mo.

Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Zhu Zhuqing were all dumbfounded.

What kind of operation is this?

How did Chen Mo manage to do that?

Not to mention them, even Chen Mo herself was a bit confused.

Chen Mo swallowed hard.

It's over.

It seems like we've gone a bit too far. If my brother finds out, he'll probably be locked up for at least a few years.

It's locked, it absolutely has to be locked.

The message absolutely must be locked, otherwise, if it reaches my brother, he'll probably be so angry he'll come out of seclusion and drag me back.

Chen Mo hadn't expected that her brother Chen Mo would have such a great influence. Just because she wanted to open an academy, so many powerful forces would step in to help.

I've never seen those powerful forces treat me this well before.

What Chen Mo didn't know was that various top forces had been watching them all along. Those forces had always wanted to curry favor with them, but unfortunately, they hadn't given them the chance.

Now that we know Chen Mo wants to establish an academy, isn't this an opportunity?

So they all crowded around.

Although Chen Mo didn't show up, everyone knew that Chen Mo was that person's sister.

Every move Chen Mo and Lin Yaodong make attracts the attention of various powerful forces.

Therefore, when Lin Yaodong challenges various forces, he usually leaves immediately after the fight, without lingering, because he doesn't want to give them too many opportunities to make contact with him.

Chen Mo is usually quite careful. When she opened the academy, she didn't intend to use her brother's name, but rather planned to resolve the issue with her own fists.

However, she overestimated the moral bottom line of those people!

Chen Mo took a deep breath. "What's done is done. Our most important thing now is to keep the news under wraps. We absolutely cannot let my brother know about this, otherwise... hehe..."

After saying that, Chen Mo revealed a look of fear in her eyes.

Dugu Yan said worriedly, "This kind of thing can't be kept secret forever, can it?"

Chen Mo said seriously, "Of course we can't hide it, but we have to keep it a secret until the Soul Master Tournament is over, otherwise I'll be at a huge loss."

Even if I get caught and locked up in a dark room, I have to have fun first.

A dead pig isn't afraid of boiling water; since things are already like this, if I'm going to die, I might as well die quickly.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling looked at each other in bewilderment.

Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, on the other hand, looked expectant; both of them were the type to thrive on chaos.

Xiao Wu, in particular, stopped sleeping as soon as she heard about it, her eyes wide open as she discussed what to do next.

Everyone quickly reached a consensus.

Chen Mo: Next, I must find Brother Yaodong immediately and drag him into this mess. This will not only relieve some of the pressure on me but also prevent my brother from finding out so soon, at least until after the Soul Master Tournament is over...

Soon, the five of them found Lin Yaodong.

The moment Chen Mo saw Lin Yaodong, she handed him an appointment letter as vice dean, along with various badges and seals for vice dean, without saying a word.

Chen Mo didn't give him a chance to react, and said, "From now on, you are the vice dean of our Moon Shadow Wind Spirit Academy."

Lin Yaodong:?

Chen Mo: "You were also involved in this, so don't tell my brother about it."

Lin Yaodong:??

Chen Mo: "If my brother finds out about this before the Soul Master Tournament, we'll say that you suggested we do it! You're the mastermind."

Lin Yaodong:???

Lin Yaodong: Who am I? Where am I? What happened?

What are you all talking about, bombarding us with so much stuff right off the bat?

What exactly did I do?

Lin Yaodong was completely dumbfounded.

After Dugu Yan explained, Lin Yaodong finally understood what had happened.

Good grief, they've made me take the blame.

It's bad enough that I'm your brother's personal tool, but why do I also have to be your tool and take the blame for you?

I felt cold and shivering.

When will these "tools" finally get their due?!

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yaodong said, "Actually, you don't need to worry too much. My elder brother once asked me if I wanted to be the master of a force, but I refused."

The eldest brother actually wanted to have his own power base, but he always lacked a trustworthy person, and he didn't want to expend too much energy on it, so he didn't do it.

Chen Mo asked in surprise, "Brother Yaodong, you're not lying to me, are you? My brother really thinks that way?"

Lin Yaodong nodded in agreement.

Chen Mo suddenly felt that the sky had cleared up; it truly was a case of "after the darkest hour comes the dawn."

I thought I was going to die, but I was wrong.

Hehehe.

Then I'd better do a good job managing this college; I'll definitely amaze my brother when the time comes.

After being inspired by Lin Yaodong's words, Chen Mo was filled with enthusiasm—to grow bigger and stronger, and create new glories!

Lin Yaodong continued, "You should know some things too. Your older brother can't take care of you for much longer. If you can grow up and run this academy well, I believe your older brother will be very happy."

Chen Mo remained silent for a while.

She curled her lip and said, "He's the head of this family. Why should I be responsible for everything after he leaves? Can't he take care of things himself? I can't be bothered to deal with it..."

Seeing that Chen Mo was in low spirits, Lin Yaodong stopped talking.

Dugu Yan and the other women also had a premonition that something was amiss; in the next few years, something big was likely to happen again on the entire Douluo Continent.

Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Dugu Yan immediately changed the subject.

Dugu Yan: "Little Mo, now that the academy is all set up, let's start forming the team. Little Mo, have you thought of any candidates?"

Chen Mo composed herself. "What's there to choose from? It's just the few of us."

Ye Lingling's expression was a little strange as she said, "But, Little Mo, you're the principal, Yao Yaodong is the vice principal, Sister Yanyan is the dean of studies, I'm the dean of internal affairs, Xiao Wu is the dean of logistics, and Zhuqing is... well, Zhuqing is a student. We only have one student right now."

Lin Yaodong glanced at Zhu Zhuqing. Six people in total: five leaders and only one trainee?

Five leaders with only one subordinate?

Zhu Zhuqing: Hehe, it seems you've been offended!

Meow~

Chen Mo said with a proud look, "Who said Zhuqing is a student? She's the student council president, and we're working together."

The principal is in charge of all teachers and staff.

The student council president manages all students.

We're in charge of everyone in the entire school, from top to bottom.

Zhu Zhuqing remained expressionless, already used to it: Heh, a student council president with only one student.

Chen Mo said somewhat indignantly, "The competition only has an age limit, it didn't say that principals and teachers can't participate, did it?"

Ye Lingling: "This? It seems there really isn't one. Generally, those who can become teachers in high-level Soul Master Academy are mostly Soul King, and the principal is even Soul Saint. So their age is generally over the stipulated 25 years old, so it's naturally impossible for them to participate."

Besides, the Soul Master Tournament tests the students' abilities; how can the principal and teachers participate together? This has never happened before in the entire Douluo Continent!

Chen Mo: "Since there's no explicit rule against it, then it's allowed, right, Zhuqing?"

Zhu Zhuqing replied expressionlessly, "Yes, that's right, as long as you like it."

Well!

Life is tough, even a cat sighs.

Chen Mo laughed and said, "The score is now 2-2. Sister Xiao Wu is definitely on my side, right? Obviously, Sister Xiao Wu has already decided to side with us."

The score is now 3-2.

Xiao Wu is sleeping soundly right now: Whew~

Chen Mo glanced at Lin Yaodong and said, "No, as the principal, it's reasonable for me to have an extra vote. Of course, the vice-principal doesn't get one. The score is now 4:2."

As Chen Mo spoke, she glanced at Lin Yaodong, her voice lacking confidence.

Lin Yaodong:...

I didn't say I disagreed, so why am I being so guarded?

Lin Yaodong said weakly, "I agree."

Chen Mo jumped up with joy. "Look, you all saw it, Brother Yaodong chose it himself, the score is now 5:2."

Dugu Yan weakly held her forehead.

Dugu Yan said, "Our opinion doesn't count; only the Soul Master Tournament decides."

Chen Mo: "I only care about what you think. As for them, pfft, I don't care at all."

Lin Yaodong nodded. "That's quite right. Rather than just following the rules, I'd much rather be the one making the rules..."
