Chapter 60: Elemental City.
Xiao Fei carefully observed his body and discovered a spherical core within his Dantian, rapidly spinning.
This high-speed rotation simultaneously stimulated the flow of his soul power. Xiao Fei estimated that the speed of his soul power would be significantly increased compared to before.
Furthermore, since the soul core cultivated autonomously, subsequent cultivation would be even faster, and his soul power would recover even faster.
With the formation of his soul core, Xiao Fei could naturally draw the energy of heaven and earth into his body, even without meditation. This was like being in a constant state of cultivation. Without meditation, his cultivation would be much slower.
Xiao Fei felt that his soul power was slowly developing towards a solid state. However, as he was currently only a Soul Sage, his soul power was still in liquid form and had not yet fully solidified. He estimated that this would take until he reached Titled Douluo status.
Of course, another advantage was that there were few bottlenecks before reaching Titled Douluo status.
After Xiao Fei condensed his first soul core, he explored the Divine Fire Tower for a while. Assuming the Elemental Academy was about to hold its founding ceremony and opening ceremony, he prepared to leave the Divine Fire Tower.
As soon as the gate to the Divine Fire Tower opened, Huo Wu quickly ran over, hugging Xiao Fei and saying, "Xiao Fei, how was your solitary retreat this time? Did you achieve your goal? I've been feeling uneasy these past few days, as if something might happen to you."
Xiao Fei stroked Huo Wu's hair and said, "This retreat was very successful. Although it was a bit risky, it achieved what I wanted. I won't experiment recklessly again."
Huo Wu looked at Xiao Fei carefully and said, "I feel like there's something wrong with your body. I don't know why, but I feel like you've changed a lot this time."
Xiao Fei smiled and shook his head. "What kind of change could I have? I've just gained a deeper understanding of my martial spirit."
The Soul Core cultivation method isn't suitable for everyone. Normally, cultivation begins only when you're approaching level 90.
Furthermore, Xiao Fei had only just successfully verified it the first time, and there was no guarantee that others would have the same high success rate.
This time, Xiao Fei was taking a huge risk. Others didn't have Xiao Fei's advanced head soul bones or physical fitness.
Since the establishment of the Elemental Academy was approaching, Xiao Fei and the other two quickly returned to Blazing Fire Academy. But surprisingly, Blazing Fire Academy was completely deserted.
Some direct disciples of the Huo Family and some Fire Elemental Spirit Masters who had joined the Huo Family had even removed the Blazing Fire Academy sign.
Upon closer inspection, they learned that the framework of Elemental City had been completed, and all students had already moved to the Elemental Academy there.
With no other options, the three of them hurried once more to Elemental City.
The initial design of Elemental City was actually proposed by Xiao Fei, and then developed through consultation among the deans. Elemental City has six walls, each 20 kilometers long, forming a regular hexagon.
Each wall has a gate at its center. The center of the wall houses the academy's offices, where the dean and other leaders work.
The five academic departments—Divine Wind, Blazing Fire, Heavenly Water, Geng Metal, and Xu Earth—each occupy one side of the wall, covering approximately one-sixth of the total area.
The remaining one-sixth is dedicated to the botanical garden, with Yang Wudi temporarily serving as the dean of the plantation, and the Xu Earth department (the Po Yi clan) responsible for the medicinal garden.
Each of the five departments selected 1 Soul Saint, 2 Soul Emperors, 3 Soul Kings and 10 Soul Masters to form the Elemental Academy Security Department.
Feng Heng, the former vice president of the Shinfeng Academy and a level 82 Soul Douluo, will temporarily serve as the director, responsible for the internal security, patrols and discipline control of the academy.
Upon arriving at the Elemental Academy, Xiao Fei took to the air to observe the entire academy's construction. Each department had its own distinct architectural style.
The Tianshui department had built a large lake, with classrooms and training grounds located in its center. The Blazing Fire department had directly channeled magma from the earth's veins, artificially creating a small volcano.
The Kamikaze department had constructed a variety of bizarre structures specifically for training in wind elemental mastery. The Gengjin and Xutu departments each built their own facilities based on their teaching needs.
Flying in the air, Xiao Fei couldn't help but marvel, "As expected of a spirit master! Their construction abilities are far superior to those of ordinary people. The Yu Clan is truly skilled in construction, having built an entire city in just a few months."
Of course, the construction was led by the Yu Clan, with participation from students and teachers from various factions. In total, approximately 1,000 spirit masters participated, and they were particularly dedicated to building their own departments.
Upon their return to the Elemental Academy, the three were summoned to the Dean's office in the center.
Xiao Fei was surprised to find all five Deans and Vice Deans in the office. Feng Xiaotian and Shui Bing'er were also there, as were two unfamiliar young men in the dean's office. They should be the elites of the younger generation of the Poyi Clan and the Yuyi Clan.
The deans seemed relieved to see Xiaofei and the other two return.
Dean Huo looked at Xiaofei and the other two and said, "The opening ceremony of the academy will be held the day after tomorrow. Many people will be present to observe the ceremony, including some from hostile forces. For the older generation, we old guys will be the ones to receive them, and for the younger generation, you will be the ones to receive them together."
"Now that our five families have merged, we can say that we have some strength, but overall, our strength is still insufficient. The Spirit Hall is led by Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo, and the golden generation from that year will also be here. They will probably want to spar with you, or to save face from the past, so you should be more careful."
"Ning Fengzhi and Jian Douluo of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, as well as Xue Qinghe, Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, will all be here. We need to focus on the conflict between them. Our stance is not to take sides, but we won't allow anyone to bully us either."
Xiao Fei thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Dean, it's been over five years since the last Soul Master Competition. Why is there no news of a Soul Master Competition? Isn't it canceled in the future?"
The five deans glanced at each other and smiled.
"Ever since the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect incident and the annihilation of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, the entire Soul Master world is in danger. Many families have recalled their talented students from school."
Even if a Soul Master Competition is held, the number of talented participants will be smaller than in previous years. Also, Xiao Fei and Huo Wu are within the age range for Soul Master Competition registration. In the eyes of the outside world, Huo Wu and Xiao Fei are already Soul Emperors.
"If they participate, the championship will basically be determined by us, and the three major forces don't want us to always win."
"Therefore, the three major forces jointly issued a notice: In view of the turmoil in the Soul Master world, the Continental Soul Master Competition will be suspended for one session and will resume in five years."
Xiao Fei was a little speechless and complained. The Soul Master Competition was not held, and it turned out to be related to us?
And with the current situation, it is not certain whether there will be a Soul Master Competition in five years?
