To establish a Soul Master Academy?
Yue Guan’s idea surprised both Gui Mei and Dugu Bo.
Are you serious?
Dugu Bo stared at Yue Guan with a completely bewildered expression.
”Establishing a Soul Master Academy is not difficult, but recruiting students is a big problem, and maintaining the academy will also require a lot of funding.” Yue Guan smiled and said: ”I have thought about all of this carefully.
If we really want to establish an academy, it doesn’t need to be too big.
We can start by recruiting some students, even those with mediocre qualifications.
We can take it one step at a time.
Once the academy has a reputation, it’s not too late to expand.” ”But where do the students come from?
People with a little money or connections wouldn’t send their children to a newly established academy with no reputation.” ”Then we’ll open it up to the common people and discover talent among them.” The ghost clapped its hands together.
”That’s a good idea.
Perhaps we can take advantage of this opportunity to recruit children who have awakened their original martial soul.” Yue Guan nodded: ”This is one of the reasons why I want to establish an academy.
Of course, the most important reason is to consider our current situation.
Last time, Old Ghost and I joined forces to repel the Lion King, and he and the Spirit Hall will definitely not let it go.
If Qian Daoliu knew that we both have 100,000-year spirit rings and spirit bones, and that we were going to establish a sect, he would be even more interested.
Not only Qian Daoliu, but those major sects would definitely not tolerate rising stars threatening their status.
But establishing an academy is different; the academy will not pose a threat to them.
From a moral standpoint, those top experts will not easily target the teachers of the academy.” Dugu Bo and Gui Mei exchanged a glance.
The two immediately understood what Yue Guan meant.
”Brother Yue Guan, you’ve thought this through very well.
For us, the Soul Master Academy is like an invisible barrier, allowing us to develop safely under its protection.
When we become truly powerful, those people will no longer be a threat.” ”That’s right, that’s exactly the point.” He chuckled ghostly: ”Then let’s start by establishing an academy.
But what should we name it?” All three of them began to ponder.
”Academy of Plants and Trees?
No way, that name is too corny.” ”Three-person academy…that sounds weird, and it won’t work either.” …
Ghost and Dugu Bo muttered to themselves, neither of them quite satisfied with the names they had come up with on the spot.
”I’ve thought of a good name, how about Divine Flower Academy?” Dugu Bo explained: ”The fates of the three of us, and Xin’er, have all been changed by those magical flowers and plants.
Of course, the most crucial person is Juhua Guan.
I’ve even come up with the academy’s emblem, which will feature a golden chrysanthemum.
Yue Guan will be the dean, Lao Gui will be the vice dean, and as for me…
I’ll be the dean of studies.
What do you two think?” Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged a glance.
The ghost nodded in agreement.
”Old Poisoner, your idea is excellent, I wholeheartedly agree.” Yue Guan nodded slightly: ”Let’s call it Divine Flower Academy.
Establishing a sect requires careful consideration, but founding an academy doesn’t require so much thought.
We can start preparing once we get back.” ”Wouldn’t Xin’er be our college’s first student?” ”Yes, he is the first, and will also be the first genius student in our academy to possess the second ring in a thousand years.” Dugu Bo chuckled and teased: ”Then we’ll have to change how we address you from now on, calling you ‘Chrysanthemum Guan’ or ‘Dean Chrysanthemum,’ haha~~~” ”Whatever you want, whatever makes you happy.” The three hit it off immediately and devised a detailed plan…
Early the next morning, the three of them boarded the carriage they had rented earlier and headed towards Tiandou City.
Time flies.
It’s getting dark again.
Looking up, Yue Guan saw smoke rising from distant chimneys.
”There’s a village ahead.
Let’s find a place to rest for the night and get a hot meal.” As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Guan’s pupils suddenly contracted.
An unusual fluctuation of soul power suddenly entered his mental perception range.
The fluctuations in that soul power carried a violent and evil aura, as if they did not originate from a human.
”Chrysanthemum Pass, what happened?” ”There seem to be soul beasts around here.” ”Soul beasts?
Impossible!
How could there be soul beasts here?” Dugu Bo and Gui Mei also released their spiritual power, probing into the distance.
The fluctuation of soul power grew stronger and stronger, and they could feel it too.
”It really could be a soul beast, not just one, but a whole group!” ”Oh no!
If it really is a soul beast, then aren’t the villagers nearby in danger?” ”Let’s go, let’s go take a look!” The three of them sped off toward the direction of the soul power fluctuation.
As they drew closer, Yue Guan heard shouts.
The village ahead was ablaze with flames.
It has clearly been attacked.
Without time to think, the three sped up.
Upon arriving at the village entrance, the scene before them sank their hearts.
A group of monsters that resemble both humans and wolves are rampaging through the village, burning, killing, and looting!
These monsters were tall, covered in gray fur, and had claws as sharp as blades that gleamed with a cold light.
Their blood-red eyes revealed endless ferocity and greed.
The village was in chaos, with many houses set on fire and thick smoke billowing out.
The villagers fled in all directions.
Cries and pleas for help were heard incessantly.
”Damn wolf bandits!” Yue Guan recognized these monsters at a glance.
Wolf bandits are a product of the Swiftwind Demon Wolves and humans.
They possess not only the ferocity and speed of wolves, but also the intelligence of humans, and often attack villages in packs.
They burned, killed, looted, and committed all sorts of atrocities.
”Kill these bastards!” Without the slightest hesitation, the three immediately took action.
Yue Guan unleashed the Qilong Tongtian Chrysanthemum Martial Soul, its dazzling golden light illuminating the night sky.
After releasing his martial soul, Dugu Bo immediately lit up his seventh spirit ring and activated his martial soul true form.
The enormous Azure Scale Serpent King hovered above the village.
The ghosts also released their martial spirits, and countless ghostly figures surged out, accompanied by chilling wails.
This sudden turn of events left the wolf bandits bewildered.
They all stopped what they were doing.
Yue Guan’s eyes sharpened.
Skull Skill, Golden Dragon’s Might!
An invisible pressure suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping all the wolf bandits.
They were instantly subdued, like lambs to the slaughter.
Ghostly kicked out with his left leg, sending dozens of dark red blades slashing towards the wolf bandits.
Puff, puff— One wolf bandit after another was cleaved in two, blood splattering everywhere!
Dugu Bo also launched an attack, his emerald green poisonous blade slashing mercilessly at the wolf bandits.
The wolf bandits were powerless to fight back and screamed in agony!
Now, it’s their turn to despair.
In the blink of an eye, all twenty-odd wolf bandits were dealt with.
The three of them, Yue Guan, stopped.
”Don’t panic, everyone.
We’ve killed all those wolf bandits.” The villagers gradually recovered from their panic.
They had never seen such a powerful Soul Master, nor had they ever dared to hope that such a powerful Soul Master would care about the lives of ordinary people like them.
”Thank you so much, Soul Master, for saving my life…” The villagers knelt down to express their gratitude to Yue Guan and his two companions.
If they hadn’t arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
”Everyone, get up!” An old woman suddenly shouted: ”Soul Master, I beg you, save my grandson!
Save my grandson…” A boy of about twelve or thirteen years old was lying on the ground.
The boy was covered in blood, with a huge claw mark on his chest that was so deep that the bone was visible.
Yue Guan quickly went over, took out a pill, put it into the boy’s mouth, and then activated his soul power to transfer it to the boy.
But the boy was too badly injured, and there was nothing he could do.
”Sir, although I have some knowledge of pharmacology, I am not a true therapist…” Looking at the dying boy, Yue felt a pang of sadness.
This level of injury can probably only be healed by a Nine-Hearted Begonia Soul Master.
The ghost walked over and gently patted Yue Guan’s shoulder to comfort him.
Yue Guan suddenly frowned.
He sensed a peculiar energy fluctuation.
The previously inconspicuous blue silver grass in the village suddenly lit up, releasing faint blue light particles.
Those blue particles of light floated into the air like fireflies.
They seemed to be guided by some mysterious force, landing on the dying boy and entering his body.
The boy’s face gradually regained its color.
The wounds on his body miraculously began to heal.
This incredible scene left everyone speechless.
Yue Guan looked up in the direction from which the soul power fluctuations were coming from.
A young girl in a light blue dress was slowly walking towards the crowd.
