Chapter 307

308. Chapter 308: Semester Ends, Level 20 Huo Yu Hao

The new Emperor's ascension also represented the opening of a brand-new era.

Coupled with the crazy expansion of the Holy Spirit Sect, the Sun Moon Empire also underwent significant changes and turmoil.

However, in the face of absolute strength, all turmoil was a paper tiger, easily suppressed by the empire's military force.

For all resisters, the empire showed no mercy, executing them, wiping out their clans, and rooting them out!

If this were an ordinary world with low individual strength, such cruel and bloody suppression might have sparked many uprisings or even backfired.

But in this fantasy world, as long as the peak combat power didn't fall, the people below had no chance of a comeback.

In a normal mortal kingdom, uprisings might occur every few decades, and changing two or three dynasties in a century was no problem.

But in a fantasy world, changes in the ruling class started at a century at the very least; if the national fortune was prosperous, there wouldn't be much change for thousands or ten thousand years.

The Sun Moon Empire seemed to have changed to a new Emperor, but the ruling class actually remained unchanged.

More than half a month passed in a flash.

Sun Moon Imperial Soul Tool Academy, Third Experimental Building.

Bai Zhou lay on the roof sunbathing, a cigarette in his mouth, feeling comfortable and relaxed.

Smoking was harmful to health, but a Soul Master's physique was strong; they could smoke cannons and be fine, let alone cigarettes.

Originally, Bai Zhou and Orange were lovey-dovey in the lab every day, playing with little games and props, which was very comfortable.

But ever since Meng Hongchen arrived, Orange had chased him away...

It was mainly because Orange didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of Meng Hongchen, so the best way was to chase Bai Zhou away so she and Meng Hongchen could play together.

Bai Zhou was helpless about this, but it didn't matter; anyway, they were together when they got home.

Although they still slept in separate rooms, Bai Zhou was already working hard; the days of three people in one bed shouldn't be too far off...

"Calculating the time, Shrek should be on vacation. It's a pity I can't go back for a short time..."

Bai Zhou sighed lightly.

During the time he had been in the Sun Moon Empire, Xian Lin'er and the others would send him messages every day, sharing their daily lives with him.

It was just a pity that the distance between the two sides was too far, the message delay was too high, and chatting was extremely inconvenient, so Bai Zhou rarely replied.

Now that he had taken down the entire Sun Moon Empire, Bai Zhou didn't hold back and handed over most of his technology to Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen.

With these two old men taking the lead, plus the Sun Moon Empire's productivity, it shouldn't take long for the Micro Card to be completely popularized in all countries, the transmission distance could be increased again, and the delay would also be reduced.

Besides this, a new generation of Micro Cards was also in production; although it was much worse than the mobile phones of his previous life, the functions were constantly being improved, especially with the addition of a camera function.

The Sun Moon Empire's Soul Tool technology was very advanced; things like video cameras and cameras had naturally been created, but few people knew about them.

After all, this was a fantasy world, and all technology trees were developed in the direction of improving combat power.

Art-type things like music and fine arts could be said to be very backward; even dogs wouldn't play with them.

Even if someone really created such a Soul Tool, it couldn't be promoted and would even be mocked.

It was said that when Jing Hongchen was researching in his early years, he built a camera Soul Tool, and then his teacher hung him up and beat him for three days and three nights, saying he was unlearned and only made useless junk...

Bai Zhou heard this from Meng Hongchen; it counted as one of Jing Hongchen's dark histories, and he didn't know how Meng Hongchen knew about it...

However, with the popularity of the Micro Card, many daily items had begun to be released; even ordinary people without soul power could use the Micro Card in conjunction with a "power bank" type energy storage Soul Tool, and one charge could last for half a year.

Of course, ordinary people here didn't refer to commoners, but nobles. After all, the price of the Micro Card was there; 99% of commoners couldn't afford it, and only nobles had spare money to buy Micro Cards.

And as production increased, the price would naturally decrease; one day, ordinary commoners might be able to use this high technology.

Although the strength of the empire's national fortune relied on top-level combat power, whether an empire was prosperous still depended on the population.

The larger the population, the higher the chance of producing geniuses; as long as they were cultivated well, they could become talents in the future.

After all, this was the Sun Moon Empire, and the cultivation and importance attached to Soul Masters with soul power were far higher than in the original three empires.

After all, it was relatively simple for the Sun Moon Empire to cultivate Soul Tool Masters; it only required taking pills + exams, a layer-by-layer selection.

And as long as one became a Soul Tool Master, one had the ability to make money, quickly accumulate funds, buy potions to improve cultivation, and be self-sufficient; the reliance on background wasn't very strong.

In the original Douluo Continent, what was needed was a soul ring; without a background, without seniors to take you to obtain a soul ring, it was basically a dead end.

And over there, Soul Masters were said to be noble, but they were all poor.

Because Soul Master cultivation was more expensive than Soul Tool Master cultivation, but Soul Masters didn't have the ability to make money...

Even students of Shrek, the continent's number one academy, were mostly tight on money and dirt poor.

The cost of Soul Master cultivation was something even ordinary nobles couldn't afford.

Only with the support of big nobles like the White Tiger Duke or big clans could they have a constant supply of resources and charge forward blindly.

Compared to the three empires of the original Douluo Continent, the cost-effectiveness of investing in the Sun Moon Empire was much higher.

This was also the main reason Bai Zhou chose the Sun Moon Empire.

Bai Zhou was now waiting for the Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony to share a wave of national fortune; he should be able to take off in one wave then...

At the same time.

Shrek Academy.

The first semester, the difficult one month, had finally passed.

All students and teachers also welcomed a rare vacation; it was only one month, and students couldn't slack off during this month; instead, they needed to cultivate even harder, or even take pills.

After all, as soon as the next semester started, all students would need to take advancement tests; if they couldn't pass the assessment, they would be held back at best, or expelled at worst.

Under such heavy pressure, no student dared to slack off.

Those among the freshmen who had already broken through to Level 20 would pay any price in the next month to obtain a soul ring most suitable for themselves.

And those students who had barely reached Level 19 would try every possible way this month, even taking pills, to raise their cultivation to Level 20 and advance to Great Soul Master.

As for the others who hadn't even reached Level 19...

Mm... these losers had long been eliminated in the freshman assessment.

Of course, there were also some lucky ones, like Huo Yu Hao...

It had to be said that Huo Yu Hao's luck was still pretty good.

Because of his outstanding performance in the Soul Tool Department, Fan Yu put aside his pride and got Huo Yu Hao a Xuan Water Pill, and coupled with Huo Yu Hao's diligent cultivation, he finally raised his soul power level to Level 20 at the end of the semester.
