Chapter 149 Wang Yan: This batch of students is really hard to manage!
"Yuhao's words are not wrong. However, Wang Dong'er, I want to know your answer." Wang Yan looked at Wang Dong'er.
Apart from Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao, everyone else was somewhat confused.
He Caitou seemed to be thinking about this. He had seen Wang Dong'er take Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao to learn about soul tools from Zou Mengyao.
Since the question had been asked, Wang Dong'er didn't try to hide anything and stated frankly, "Pure Soul Masters will become increasingly rare in the future. The development of Soul Guidance Technology will completely break down the boundaries between Soul Guidance Masters and Soul Masters in the near future."
This surprised Wang Yan.
"In this year's Soul Battle Tournament, there are very few pure Soul Master academies anymore; almost all academies are trying to develop a fusion between Soul Master instructors and Soul Masters."
"What Wang Dong'er just said is actually more accurate than my summary. In my guess, the future world of Soul Masters will be as Wang Dong'er described."
"For ordinary Soul Master academies, the way they integrate is very simple: they buy Soul Tools to equip Soul Masters. They don't need to learn how to make Soul Tools, nor do they need to have sophisticated control. As long as they know how to use Soul Tools, they can improve their combat power."
"Actually, the practice of equipping Soul Masters with Soul Tools started a long time ago. But back then, the Soul Master Academies of the three major empires other than the Sun Moon Empire, like our Shrek Academy, believed that using Soul Tools was a demeanor."
"It wasn't until more and more academies using soul tools defeated pure soul master academies and achieved better results in the Soul Battle Tournament that their thinking changed. And in this Soul Battle Tournament, the vast majority of academies that passed the first round of elimination were equipped with soul tools."
Xu Sanshi frowned and said, "These academies have forgotten the glory of Soul Masters, and they've forgotten that Soul Master battles should be pure. Only abilities cultivated by oneself are worthy of our trust and are the most reliable fighting force. Soul tools are ultimately just external objects."
Although he was only a food-type Soul Master, He Caitou's expression was still somewhat awkward.
Wang Yan glanced at Xu Sanshi and slowly said, "Xu Sanshi's idea is also the idea of most of the higher-ups in our academy. This is the reason why the academy's Soul Guidance Department has been unable to develop."
"I know that many of you may be reluctant to use soul tools in combat, but what if Xiao Tao and the others had one or even multiple defensive soul tools when they were on the surveillance mission? Would they still have been severely injured by that Death Messenger's soul skill?"
"Let's not even talk about Xiao Tao and the others. Take Wang Dong'er as an example. The reason some of you weren't injured is because Wang Dong'er has a powerful defensive soul tool that protected you, isn't it?"
"From this perspective, you all owe her a life, and I also owe her a debt of gratitude."
What Wang Yan was referring to was the reward for the Soul Douluo-level defensive soul skill that Wang Dong'er had passively used, but everyone else regarded it as a powerful defensive soul tool.
"Caitou, you are from the elite academy of the Soul Guidance Department. Explain to them what changes would have occurred if the seven regular team members had been equipped with level five or even level six defensive soul tools."
He Caitou nodded and said, "If the senior students had level six defensive soul tools, or even just level five, they would never have been crippled or killed in battle, and their injuries would not be as severe as they are now."
"Speaking of elites, which student at Shrek Academy wasn't selected through rigorous layers of screening? Compared to students from other academies, we are the elite among elites. Yet, even so, we can achieve such combat power through soul tools. What about the students from other academies?"
"And then there's the flying soul tool. Ordinary soul masters need to be at least seven rings to fly briefly. By using the flying soul tool, your speed between the two places will be much faster than simply using soul master abilities or riding horses."
"Besides, haven't storage soul tools already permeated every aspect of your lives?"
"You all felt the speed at which Elder Xuan flew using the flying soul tool. His martial soul is a kind of martial soul called the Gluttonous Divine Ox, which has the drawback of needing to eat and drink constantly, but eating and drinking is also equivalent to his cultivation. He is now a level 98 Super Douluo, a well-known figure throughout the entire continent."
"I'm sure that without a flying soul tool, even with Elder Xuan's terrifying cultivation, it might have been too late to send the students back to Shrek Academy, and some students might have been more seriously injured."
"Furthermore, even a powerful Soul Master like Elder Xuan is no match for several Level 9 Soul Masters in the Sun Moon Empire. Under certain conditions, they can even threaten Elder Xuan's life with Soul Tools. Now, do you still think Soul Masters have any glory left in the face of the overwhelming tide of Soul Tools?"
Wang Yan's words were like a wake-up call for Bei Bei and the others, and the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.
But some people grasped another key point.
A core disciple from the third year of the outer academy asked, "Elder Xuan... he actually has such a strong cultivation level?"
Before Wang Yan could answer, the core disciple became agitated: "Level ninety-eight! That's level ninety-eight! A Super Douluo, a Soul King—he's always been following us, so why did my brother die?!"
His brother was one of the only unfortunate people from the outer courtyard to die.
The last sentence was almost shouted out in a broken voice by this core disciple, so loud that it startled the other passersby.
Wang Yan quickly pushed everyone to a corner.
He hadn't expected that introducing Elder Xuan's power would remind this student of the miserable state he had experienced during his previous surveillance mission.
But he... really had no reason to shirk his master's responsibility.
He was just moments ago immersed in the self-satisfaction of making Shrek Academy great again because of his own words.
The emotions were interrupted so quickly that there wasn't even time to feel excited before the core disciple had already suppressed the atmosphere to its lowest point.
He Caitou didn't know how to respond, so he brought up the topic of soul tools: "If there were defensive soul tools, this situation wouldn't have happened. Brother Sanshi just said that only those he cultivated himself are the most trustworthy, but I don't agree with that. Elder Xuan is a prime example."
Wang Yan's face immediately darkened. Did this bald man even know how to speak? He could have just said the first half of the sentence, why did he have to mention Elder Xuan? Doesn't he understand the art of speaking?
This batch of students is really hard to manage!
He Caitou realized he had said the wrong thing and had no choice but to shut up.
Beibei broke the silence, saying, "I'm willing to lead by example and try fighting with a soul tool."
