Shrek Academy, Soul Conductor Department teaching area.

The buildings of the Soul Conductor Department are different from those of the Soul Power Department, with an ancient and solemn style, constructed from a special gray brick that gleams with a metallic, cold luster.

Occasional loud booms echo from inside the buildings, as if countless Soul Conductor Cannon Shells are exploding in a series, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

The Soul Conductor Department is divided into many experimental zones, each marked with a number. The lower the number, the more important the zone. Du Weilun led Ling Bai and Ning Tian to Experimental Zone One, kicked open the metal door without hesitation, and shouted:

"Is Dean Qian here! Open up!"

Inside Experimental Zone One, a few Soul Conductor Department students and teachers were fiddling with Soul Conductor Devices. They looked up at Du Weilun, curious to see who was so audacious.

Two figures approached Du Weilun. The man on the left was at least two meters tall, broad- shouldered and muscular, with bare arms that looked like granite, and hair that stood up like steel needles. As he walked, the pressure he exuded was like a moving mountain.

He was the Deputy Dean of the Soul Conductor Department, Wulong Douluo Qian Duoduo! The woman on the right was about 1.7 meters tall, in her early thirties, with fair skin and a delicate face. Her eyes were cold and proud, like ice.

She was the Dean of the Soul Conductor Department, Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er! "Well, what wind brings Director Du here today? The small Soul Conductor Department can't accommodate a great Buddha like you!" Qian Duoduo said with a forced smile as soon as he saw Du Weilun.

The Soul Conductor Department had always been at a disadvantage in its long-standing competition with the Soul Power Department. As the top executive under Dean Yan Shaozhe, Du Weilun had often made things difficult for the Soul Conductor Department.

According to past behavior, Du Weilun would have retorted sharply to Qian Duoduo, but when he saw Xian Lin'er, his lips twitched a few times before he stepped forward to greet them: "Dean Xian is here too. It's been a while."

Xian Lin'er snorted coldly: "I prefer your arrogant self. Spit it out!"

Hearing this, Du Weilun did not get angry; instead, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Joking, even Yan Shaozhe avoided Xian Lin'er, and Du Weilun dared not provoke Qian Duoduo, let alone this Martial God Douluo.

Du Weilun got straight to the point: "Deans Xian and Qian, I've come to bring the Soul Conductor Department a great benefit!"

"Oh, I don't believe it."

Qian Duoduo shook his head, and Xian Lin'er agreed. Du Weilun, personally trained by Yan Shaozhe, was known for his cunning!

Du Weilun almost burst with anger. What did these two mean? Could they at least give him some face in front of Ning Tian?

"Cough, cough!"

Hiding his embarrassment by covering his mouth with a fist, Du Weilun continued: "I know the Soul Conductor Department is short on people, so I've brought you a super genius. Little Tian, meet Dean Xian Lin'er and Deputy Dean Qian Duoduo of the Soul Conductor Department!"

Ning Tian stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said with a flawless smile: "Greetings, Deans. I am a new student, Ning Tian."

Du Weilun introduced her: "Little Tian is the child of my close friend. She has excellent soul power talent and has always been interested in Soul Conductor Devices. Her mother and I have discussed this many times and strongly opposed her learning Soul Conductor Devices, but she kept asking. In the end, I had no choice but to bring her here as she wished."

Ling Bai, standing nearby, silently gave a thumbs up. Director Du truly lived up to his reputation, weaving a half-true, half-false story that praised Ning Tian and slipped in his own interests!

"Good child, you have good taste!"

Sure enough, Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo were instantly convinced by Du Weilun's words.

Shrek Academy followed the trend of the continent in establishing the Soul Conductor Department, but due to its pride and history, the Academy, especially the Inner Courtyard, looked down on the Soul Conductor Department.

To be honest, even the dogs of the Soul Power Department would kick a Soul Conductor Department student if they passed by!

While other soul master academies across the continent were trying to combine soul power and Soul Conductor Devices in battle, most Shrek students remained proud of their traditional methods, refusing to learn how to make Soul Conductor Devices and even rejecting their use! Now, a talented student suddenly appeared, telling them that she had long admired Soul Conductor Devices. How could the two deans not be moved?

"However..."

Xian Lin'er paused and said, "The Soul Conductor Department only starts admitting students in the third year. It's against the rules for a new student to join."

"Ling'er is right, you're too early," Qian Duoduo agreed.

"Shrek Academy's motto is to admit only prodigies, not ordinary students," Du Weilun said. "Prodigies have their own teaching methods and don't need to follow fixed patterns."

As he said this, he recalled the scene three months ago when he saw Ling Bai easily defeat Chu Qingtian in the Inner Courtyard exam. Even among prodigies, there are differences!

"That makes sense..." the two deans nodded.

"I have a proposal for you to consider. Little Tian can stay in the Soul Power Department and complete her daily tasks. Then, I'll turn a blind eye and allow her to learn Soul Conductor

Devices from you."

"Dual cultivation of soul power and Soul Conductor Devices?"

Xian Lin'er frowned and slowly said, "It's not a bad idea, but the only question is... Ning Tian, do you have the talent for it?"

"Yes!"

Ning Tian's answer was firm, and her spirited demeanor made Xian Lin'er look at her with new respect. Xian Lin'er clapped and praised:

"I like your confidence! If you show enough talent, I'll accept Director Du's proposal and

teach you Soul Conductor Devices!"

"Me too!"

Qian Duoduo unconditionally supported his wife.

"Dean Xian, please give me three different types of metal, three engraving knives, and a Level

1 Soul Conductor Propulsion Device."

Ning Tian's azure eyes gathered a stormy glow. Ling Bai and Du Weilun had opened another path for her, and she would not let them down!

Xian Lin'er did not ask for the purpose and turned to the depths of Experimental Zone One, shouting: "Qian Fufu, one piece each of blue iron, yellow iron, and red iron, three ordinary Soul Conductor engraving knives, and a Level 1 Soul Conductor Propulsion Device!"

"Sure, Mother!"

A voice responded from afar, and Qian Fufu ran up with a pile of materials, suddenly

exclaiming:

"Ling Bai, why are you here in the Soul Conductor Department?"

He did not recognize Ning Tian, so he only noticed Ling Bai.

Something's not right!

Is he here to cause trouble!?

Qian Fufu, defense mode activated!

Ling Bai saw through it and said helplessly, "Don't overthink it. I'm here to accompany

someone for an interview in the Soul Conductor Department."

Unless his head was kicked by a donkey, who would dare to cause trouble under the noses of

two Title Douluo?

"That's good."

Qian Fufu patted his chest and smiled, "If you're interested in Soul Conductor Devices, you're

welcome to join us!"

"Ha, definitely." Ling Bai used his smooth-talking skills.

He was willing to learn and support the development of Soul Conductor Devices on the

Douluo Continent, but when it came to making them?

Sorry, not a chance!

In the peak era of Soul Conductor Devices during the Absolute Tang Gate period, the highest level was the tenth-level Silver Moon Divine Light Shield created by Kong Deming of the Sun

and Moon Empire, which posed almost no threat to deities.

So, isn't focusing on becoming a deity more appealing?

After becoming a deity, with an eternal lifespan, there would be plenty of time to learn Soul

Conductor Devices.

Qian Fufu placed the materials on a round metal table in front of Ning Tian, and Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo stood on either side, watching her quietly.

Blue iron, yellow iron, and red iron were relatively common rare metals, suitable for the core

arrays of most Soul Conductor Devices below level three. They now lay in front of Ning Tian, exuding a cold, metallic aura.

Ning Tian did not start with the three rare metals but first disassembled the Level 1 Soul

Conductor Propulsion Device.

The structure of a Level 1 Soul Conductor Device was very simple. Removing the metal casing revealed a small, intricate hexagonal metal block with some complex patterns engraved on it. A Level 1 Soul Conductor core array for acceleration.

Ning Tian's azure eyes glowed with a strange light. She stared at the acceleration array for a

long time but made no further move. Time ticked by, and her body remained as still as a

statue.

Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo grew impatient, their eyes glaring at Du Weilun: Are you messing with us?

Du Weilun was drenched in sweat. He was actually unsure about Ning Tian's abilities and had exaggerated her level to impress his former crush.

Finally, Ning Tian moved. She held two engraving knives in her hands, and her soul power formed a third hand to grasp the third knife!

She made a stunning move, working on three arrays simultaneously!

As Ning Tian engraved the complex patterns of the acceleration array stroke by stroke, the

three arrays did not affect her rhythm. Instead, her three hands moved in a harmonious and elegant dance!

"The secret technique of the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower, Divided Mind Control!

She's a disciple of the Nine Treasures Crystal Tower!" Xian Lin'er, well-informed, immediately recognized Ning Tian's technique. "Three Apertures Control Heart... new student..."

Qian Duoduo rubbed his chin and suddenly realized, "Eleven years old and already a three-

ringed Soul Exalted!?

As if to answer Qian Duoduo's question, a magnificent Seven Treasures Crystal Tower

appeared above Ning Tian's head, with two yellow and one purple soul rings rising, granting

her a 40% increase in strength and speed. Ning Tian's three hands became even more dazzling

as she engraved the arrays.

Ning Tian made her final engraving stroke, picked up the scattered metal shavings. She

stopped, her face showing a hint of fatigue, but when she turned to the others, she broke into

a radiant smile.

She carefully picked up the three hexagonal metal pieces, infused them with gentle soul

power, and they immediately glowed brightly. The light formed a straight, unwavering beam,

rising steadily.

"Three Level 1 acceleration core arrays. Is that enough to prove my talent as a Soul Conductor?"

"Enough! More than enough!"

Qian Duoduo was almost moved to tears. A first-tier auxiliary soul power, the Seven

Treasures Crystal Tower, an eleven-year-old Soul Exalted, and the Three Apertures Control

Heart-by heaven, their Soul Conductor Department had always followed the Soul Power Department, picking up scraps. They had never had a super genius like this! "Director Du, your visit today truly brings glory to our Soul Conductor Department! How long has it been since we last had a drink? Come, come, let's get drunk tonight!" Qian Duoduo's attitude changed instantly, and he called Du Weilun brother, slinging his arm around his shoulder and heading towards Shrek City, talking non-stop:

"Oh, Director Du, don't forget the Soul Conductor Department when you have such talented

students in the future! With you at Shrek Academy, the Soul Power Department and the Soul Conductor Department can develop together and look forward to a bright future!"

Qian Duoduo and Du Weilun left like old friends, leaving the others in the experimental zone

looking at each other in surprise.

Xian Lin'er put aside her cold demeanor and said softly, "Little Tian, from recognizing core

arrays to making them, I've seen your talent for Soul Conductor Devices. I want to ask you,

would you like to be my direct disciple?"

"Teacher!"

Ning Tian immediately bowed deeply, changing her address.

Xian Lin'er, the Dean of the Shrek Soul Conductor Department!

There was no better time to become her disciple!

"Good child!"

Xian Lin'er helped Ning Tian up, tears welling in her eyes. Though Qian Fufu was their

adopted son, he had always learned Soul Conductor Devices from Qian Duoduo, making Ning

Tian her only direct disciple.

"A Level 7 Rechargeable Soul Conductor Shield, as a gift from your teacher."

"Thank you, teacher!"

Auxiliary soul masters have weak self-defense abilities. Compared to Soul Conductor cannons

and Soul Conductor swords, Ning Tian would need a defensive Soul Conductor Device more. Xian Lin'er's gift hit the mark, making Qian Fufu say to Ling Bai with a tinge of envy:

"The gift my teacher gave me when I became his disciple wasn't as precious as this rechargeable Soul Conductor shield from Mother..."

"No time to waste, I'll teach you the basics of Soul Conductor Devices right now."

Xian Lin'er eagerly pulled Ning Tian towards the Soul Conductor Department teaching building, eager to pour all her knowledge into her.

"Teacher, please let me say a few words to Brother Bai," Ning Tian said hurriedly. "Sure, sure, go quickly and come back."

She ran over, her plump red lips close to Ling Bai's ear, and said: "Brother Bai, every three months, Mother sends us pills and supplements from the sect's

Shadow Guard to aid our cultivation. I received a letter from the Shadow Guard and will be receiving them at the East Gate of Shrek City tonight. Teacher is about to teach me Soul Conductor Devices, and in her current excited state, I'm not sure when I'll be back to the dorm. Please take care of it."

Ling Bai had no objections and then said to Qian Fufu, "Want to have lunch?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"No."

"Come, let's eat something."

Qian Fufu had indeed been tired from working on Soul Conductor Devices all morning, so he

agreed and walked with Ling Bai towards Shrek City.

On the way, he couldn't help but ask, "She's very close to you, right?"

"Yes, we grew up together." "Childhood sweethearts!"

Qian Fufu was envious and then sighed, "Such a beautiful girl, a direct descendant of the Nine

Treasures Crystal Tower, she could live a stable life by just cultivating her soul power. There's

no need for her to suffer by dual-cultivating Soul Conductor Devices. Why don't you try to persuade her?" Ling Bai smiled, "A ship is safest when it stays in the harbor, but that's not what ships are built for. Great ships must face the storms and waves."

On the other side, Xian Lin'er asked Ning Tian the same question: "Little Tian, with your soul power talent, you can surely become a core disciple of the Soul

Power Department and even a member of the Shrek Seven Monsters. Why do you want to study Soul Conductor Devices, which are not highly regarded at Shrek Academy?" "I want to become my own mountain," Ning Tian said with a bright smile. By now, her admiration for strength was evident. Of course, she hoped that her future partner

would be more excellent, more ambitious, more confident, and have unique insights and the ability to handle things with ease.

But she would not be a parasitic plant, clinging to others. She would be a cotton tree, standing

tall and independent beside her partner.

She dared to love because she was her own mountain.
