Douluo Continent: Disciple Tang San, righteous yet evil

Chapter 32 The Second Youngest Soul Emperor in the Entire Continent
After the soul power test, Sun Buyu took Tang San and Xiao Wu to the student dormitory, while Lin Mu went to the teaching committee alone.

The Academic Committee of Tiandou Royal Academy is located in the center of the main campus. It is the largest building in the entire main campus and is extremely conspicuous, so there is no need to worry about getting lost.

But to Lin Mu's surprise, he ran into Xue Qinghe, who seemed to have been waiting for him, as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the Education Committee.

"Brother Lin, it's been a long time."

"Your Highness, didn't we just meet yesterday?"

Lin Mu said in a very serious tone.

Seeing how clueless this guy was, Xue Qinghe almost spat out a mouthful of blood. This guy was either doing it on purpose or he was missing a screw in his head.

Just then, three more elderly men walked out; they were the three members of the teaching committee of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

"Your Highness, is this the young Soul Saint you spoke of?"

Meng Shenji and the other two carefully examined the young man before them. Even though Xue Qinghe had given them a heads-up, they were still horrified.

too young!

The three looked at each other, each seeing disbelief in the other's eyes.

At the age of twenty-something, they were still at the Soul Master level, while this young man in front of them had already reached the Soul Saint level!

No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince went to such lengths, even making the trip in person.

This person is indeed an unprecedented genius.

"My name is Lin Mu. I greet the three education commissioners."

"No need for formalities. It is our honor that you are willing to take up a position at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."

Meng Shenji waved his hand repeatedly, showing no arrogance as an elder, his eyes full of appreciation.

A Soul Saint of Lin Mu's age is destined to become a Title Douluo in the future, and it wouldn't be difficult for him to even grow into a Super Douluo.

At Xue Qinghe's prompting, Chief Meng Shenji took a deep breath, looked intently at Lin Mu, and said, "You are so young yet already a Soul Saint, truly a once-in-a-century talent. May I ask if you could tell me your specific level?"

Meng Shenji tried to probe Lin Mu's soul power, but could only sense his general cultivation level; he couldn't determine his specific cultivation level.

At this moment, a barely perceptible glint flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes.

In order to test Lin Mu's actual strength, she specifically asked three members of the Education Committee to inquire about Lin Mu's cultivation level through them.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Meng Shenji, I cannot disclose that information."

Lin Mu refused without even thinking.

The three education commissioners were taken aback, seemingly not expecting Lin Mu to refuse.

Just then, Xue Qinghe broke the awkward silence with a slight smile and said, "Since Brother Lin is unwilling to display his soul power, how about we have a real sparring match?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu's gaze immediately fell on the three education committee members.

These three are all powerful Contra Masters. If I could spar with them, I could better understand my own strength.

After a brief consideration, Lin Mu nodded slightly and said, "Since His Highness the Crown Prince has such an interest, then let's give it a try."

Seeing that Lin Mu agreed to spar, Xue Qinghe's lips curled up slightly, and a hint of joy was hidden deep in his eyes.

Immediately, he turned to the side and quickly gave the three education committee members a wink.

At Xue Qinghe's prompting, the three education commissioners discussed the matter briefly.

Then, Meng Shenji raised his voice and said, "Teacher Qin Ming, why don't you ask Lord Lin Mu for some advice?"

As the words fell, a young man who appeared to be close to thirty years old stepped forward. He was handsome, with a calm demeanor, sharp eyes, and an extraordinary bearing—truly worthy of being the second youngest Soul Emperor on the entire continent. "I am Qin Ming, a level sixty-two Power Attack-type Battle Soul Emperor, Martial Soul: Blazing Azure Wolf. Please enlighten me!"

Upon reaching Lin Mu, Qin Ming immediately clasped his hands in a salute, his eyes filled with respect for the powerful.

The young man in front of him looked much younger than him, yet he was already a Soul Saint, which made him feel a little ashamed, but he was filled with a strong fighting spirit.

Looking at Qin Ming, who was full of fighting spirit, a strange look flashed in Lin Mu's eyes. He had thought that one of the three education committee members would make a move.

Who would have thought he was just a minor Soul Emperor?

Keep in mind that when he was at level 70, he was already able to beat up Zhao Wuji, who was a Soul Saint. Now, having absorbed a 100,000-year Soul Ring, he has the strength to contend with a Title Douluo.

They actually let him bully a mere Soul Emperor? Isn't that ridiculous?
"Three education commissioners, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"Please rest assured, although Qin Ming is only a Soul Emperor, his strength is by no means weak. Moreover, you are not much different in age, which makes it more suitable for you to spar and learn from each other."

Meng Shenji explained with a smile.

As long as the Martial Soul True Body is not used, the gap between a Soul Saint and a Soul Emperor is not significant. After all, it's just a friendly spar, and there's no need to make a big fuss about it.

Upon hearing this answer, Lin Mu was completely speechless and could only reluctantly agree.

Before long, the group moved to the training grounds within the academy.

In the arena, Qin Ming did not let his guard down at all and immediately released his martial spirit.

A deep wolf howl rang out, and blazing flames surged from his body, causing him to grow taller, his muscles to bulge, and his eyes to transform into wolf pupils.

Immediately afterwards, six spirit rings, two yellow, three purple, and one black, swirled up, spreading a powerful aura.

Seeing the fifth ring of the millennium beneath Qin Ming's feet, Lin Mu sighed inwardly in regret.

Qin Ming's talent is definitely not bad, after all, he was able to graduate from Shrek Academy, which is a terrible academy, but this fifth soul skill of a thousand years is really too weak.

There's no way around it; that's just how miserable commoner soul masters are. Without the help of elders to hunt for soul rings, they're simply not good enough to deal with ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.

After the martial spirit was attached to him, Qin Ming did not rush to attack, but stood still and waited for Lin Mu to use the martial spirit.

However, Lin Mu remained standing in place, showing no intention of releasing his martial spirit. He raised his hand and said, "Teacher Qin, please make your move."

Qin Ming frowned, feeling that the other party was being a bit arrogant, but considering that the other party was, after all, a Soul Saint, he decided not to be polite anymore.

With a leap, his figure moved like a fiery meteor, rushing to Lin Mu's side in the blink of an eye. His wolf claws, wrapped in flames, lashed forward with a sharp whistling sound as they tore through the air!

Although no soul skill was used, this attack should not be underestimated.

In response, Lin Mu simply turned slightly to the side, his left hand shooting out with lightning speed, precisely meeting the burning wolf claw.

"Has he gone mad, catching Qin Ming's attack with his bare hands?"

Bai Baoshan, the Education Commissioner, looked surprised.

Although the physical strength of a Soul Saint is much stronger than that of a Soul Emperor, this is still limited. Compared with the boost brought by the Martial Soul Possession, this difference is insignificant.

However, the scene of Lin Mu being repelled did not appear.

To everyone's astonishment, Lin Mu not only easily caught Qin Ming's powerful attack, but also absorbed the flames on his wolf claws into his palm.

Not only did it not cause any harm, it actually made Lin Mu's aura more solid.

Since absorbing the Titan Giant Ape's soul ring and soul bone, Lin Mu's strength has increased dramatically, and he has also acquired the Qilin Fire, which is both offensive and defensive.

Now, even without using his martial soul, he can still devour the flames of other soul masters.
