Chapter 31: What Can You Teach Me in the Martial Soul Department?

~8 min read 1,401 words

Looking at the defective product Su Yu had barely managed to craft, Fan Yu felt a bit disappointed, yet deep down, he harbored an irrepressible joy.

If Su Yu's ability could be developed further, would it be possible for Su Yu to perfectly replicate the manufacturing techniques of any Soul Guidance Device, provided he copied enough of them?

This was a bold hypothesis, but it thoroughly solidified Fan Yu's determination to take him on as a disciple. The student who had taken the initiative to volunteer right now had better aptitude than the little fellow Zhou Yi had brought over before, and his first soul skill also made his eyes light up; perhaps his plan could truly be realized!

"Good. If you are still willing to join the Soul Guidance Department in the future, I will give you better treatment than any disciple of the Martial Soul Department!" Fan Yu looked at Su Yu and offered the conditions he believed would keep him.

"Many thanks, Teacher Fan Yu. If possible, I hope to study in the Soul Guidance Department with Brother He in the semester after next." Looking at the honest and simple He Cai Tou, Su Yu felt a sense of emotion in his heart.

In the original story, He Cai Tou was actually one of the characters who left him feeling deeply regretful. Burdened with a blood feud, he ultimately never got his revenge, and even though he was one of the Shrek Seven Devils, his final ending was merely spending the rest of his life accompanying Xiao Xiao.

The only person who had pinned hopes on him, Huo Yuhao, was willing to give up his position as the successor for the Extreme Individual Soldier Plan, yet in the end, it still didn't come to fruition; instead, the Sun Moon Empire became the nation of Huo Yuhao's children. It was a great pity that his deep hatred was extinguished along with it, and from beginning to end, he never managed to kill his enemy with his own hands...

At this moment, He Cai Tou walked over and said to Su Yu with a smile: "Junior Brother Su Yu, I also really hope to study with you in the Soul Guidance Department next semester. Be sure to come when the time comes."

Looking at He Cai Tou's honest and simple appearance, Su Yu nodded at him, "Brother He, I will..."

I will, I will definitely help you get your revenge...

A person who always hides themselves in the mist always has a fire in their heart; when needed, it only takes a single spark for this fire to turn into a blaze that consumes everything...

Leaving the Soul Guidance Device testing area, Su Yu's mood was incomparably relaxed. With Su Yu's strength, it was indeed impossible for him to receive the cultivation of a Core Disciple of the Martial Soul Department, but he could receive the cultivation of the Soul Guidance Department, and his future development was destined to start from the Soul Guidance Department.

Although he also hoped he could be like Huo Gua, with a Triple Martial Soul, sweeping across everything, he could not guarantee what effect his current extra Fragment Martial Soul might have, and it was currently uncertain whether it could attach a soul ring.

However, its offensive power was truly terrifying. If not for his insufficient soul power, Su Yu would have had absolute certainty in directly defeating the Three-Ring Xie Huanyue!

Returning to the dormitory, he didn't see Wang Dong, but Su Yu could roughly guess where Wang Dong was: at Yu Hao's grilled fish stall, or the cafeteria...

Just as Su Yu was sitting in the cafeteria eating, seeing Wang Dong clutching a handful of grilled fish with Huo Yuhao following behind, Su Yu pretty much knew that this guy had definitely ambushed Yu Hao for his grilled fish the moment he closed his stall.

"Su Yu, I still have a few grilled fish here, do you want some?" Looking at Wang Dong eating without any shred of decorum, Su Yu almost choked to death on his own mouthful of soup at the cafeteria table.

"Give me half the grilled fish, my treat."

Su Yu spoke indifferently and reached out his hand toward Wang Dong.

"Deal!"

With unquestionable speed, Wang Dong shoved half the grilled fish into Su Yu's hands and ran off in high spirits to the Gold Soul Coin window to order food.

"There's a match tomorrow, Yu Hao. Since I've eaten your grilled fish, I have to treat you to something, right? This meal is on me."

Su Yu was wealthy and generous; when it came to money, he never lacked any. Daily expenses were of no concern to Su Yu's family, unless Su Yu wanted to purchase soul bones or those kinds of precious medicinal herbs.

The three of them gathered at one table; it had to be said, Wang Dong certainly ate his free meal with a clear conscience...

…………

The next day.

Su Yu awoke from his practice of the Purple Demon Eye and woke up the groggy Wang Dong.

"It's not time yet, let me sleep a bit more..."

Saying this, Wang Dong turned over very reluctantly, resisting getting up with all his might.

"Are you sure you aren't getting up?"

As soon as Su Yu's words left his mouth, Wang Dong didn't say a word, startled into jumping straight out of bed and quickly tidying his clothes.

Afterward, having smoothed out his slightly frizzy hair, he said righteously: "Let's go, let's go now. How can we delay something as important as the assessment!"

In fact, regarding getting up, Su Yu and Wang Dong had fought more than once. Anyway, Su Yu's methods for tormenting Wang Dong were endless, especially one time when Su Yu directly ripped off Wang Dong's quilt, and the two of them fought for an entire day until they were red-faced, finally looking at each other's bruised, pig-head-like faces and laughing at each other for a long time.

Ever since then, Wang Dong never dared to think about sleeping in again...

Looking at Wang Dong's beautiful big eyes, Su Yu hooked his arm around Wang Dong's shoulder with great satisfaction and said: "That's what a good student looks like. Let's go, my treat, I'll take you to eat something good."

Eat something good for the road, don't hesitate, okay...

Because of Su Yu's early start, the two arrived at the assessment venue ahead of time. At this moment, Su Yu saw two familiar people: Zhou Yi and Fan Yu.

And one somewhat unfamiliar person, the Director of the Outer Court Martial Soul Department, Du Weilun.

The assessment finally began; waiting for the draw was a long and agonizing process.

"Su Yu's team, come forward to draw lots!" Du Weilun's voice appeared, pulling the drifting thoughts of the three who were still waiting back to reality.

Just at this moment, Huo Yuhao was about to step forward to draw, but after taking just one step, he was pulled back by the combined efforts of Wang Dong and Su Yu.

"You are not allowed to draw lots this time. If you draw a group with a Soul Elder again, I'll beat you to death!"

Clearly, Huo's luck had always been poor, leading to one fierce battle after another several times in a row. Regarding this, Wang Dong and Su Yu's thoughts were surprisingly unanimous.

Su Yu looked at the drawing tube in front of him and casually picked a lot number.

Du Weilun looked at the youth before him. This youth made some bizarre decisions in every match, but every time he appeared, it was refreshing. His first soul ring was even three hundred years old, and at 12 years old, he had already reached Level 20. If he could maintain this speed in the future, Su Yu would definitely be able to become a Core Disciple of the Martial Soul Department.

But what he didn't know was that Su completely didn't care about the Martial Soul Department. Teaching?

What could you possibly teach me? The things you teach are things my ancestors on Blue Star already played with and discarded...

Regarding this, Su was entirely headed for the Soul Guidance Department; after all, even the Dragon God Douluo Mu En, who stood at the pinnacle of the continent, was still just a mortal!
