Sea God Pavilion.
The meeting of the Sea God Pavilion this time was not very different from the last one, but the atmosphere was noticeably heavier. At the head of the table, Old Mu still reclined in his chair, his figure indistinct.
At the lower ends of the table sat Old Lin and Old Xuan, while the four vice and deputy deans from the Martial Soul and Soul Guidance divisions remained respectfully at the sides.
Old Mu's gentle voice broke the silence:"Speak, Xuanzi. You requested this Sea God Pavilion meeting—what is it for?"
Old Xuan nodded, slowly stood, and said in a deep voice:"Everyone already knows what happened this time. This is not the first problem to occur under my leadership. As the team leader, I cannot shirk responsibility."
"Therefore, I have decided to resign from the position of Deputy Leader of the Shrek Monitoring Team, and withdraw from the Sea God Pavilion entirely, choosing to be an ordinary member of the academy."
At these words, everyone was shocked. His position in the academy was second only to Old Mu, and he was an absolute veteran of the academy. His cultivation strength was almost equal to Old Mu's.
If Old Mu were to pass away, Old Xuan would be the first in line to inherit the Sea God Pavilion leadership.
For a moment, everyone tried to dissuade him.
But Old Xuan's decision was firm.
Speaking, he turned and walked toward the exit.
"Come back."
The voice was calm yet carried an invisible authority. Though the words were spoken lightly, Old Xuan, already in motion, froze in place.
"Old Mu, I truly have no face to stay." Old Xuan's back faced the others, his body trembling slightly—only he knew the depth of the pain he bore.
"I said, come back. Can't you hear me?" Old Mu's tone deepened.
Old Xuan shivered slightly. Though extremely unwilling, he finally turned back and sat down again.
Old Mu said faintly:"From the day the Monitoring Team was established, every member who joined has already been prepared for sacrifice."
"Since the incident has occurred, what we must do is ensure that such things do not happen again!"
"Today I slam the table: after this meeting, every Inner Academy disciple must have at least one custom Flying Soul Guidance Device and one Defense Soul Guidance Device tailored to them."
"The times are advancing. In the past thirty years, Soul Guidance Devices have developed at high speed, almost day by day, yet our Inner Academy disciples still rigidly cling to the notion that their Martial Souls are prideful. This has led to utter defeat."
"With the support of Soul Guidance Devices, even an auxiliary soul master could escape from a strong offense-type disciple!"
After Old Mu slammed the table, everyone nodded in agreement.
This matter had thoroughly awakened them.
After settling Old Xuan's resignation, attention turned to another issue.
"Old Mu, what about this year's High-Level Soul Master Academy Douhun Tournament across the continent? The Inner Academy now has only a dozen disciples, only two of whom meet the age requirement, and their abilities are lacking. Should we include the previously eliminated Soul Guidance team member along with these two?"
Old Mu thought for a moment, then decisively slammed the table:"No need to reinforce them. Let them perform on their own."
"Ah?" The senior elders were shocked.
One of them spoke up:"Old Mu, this concerns the academy's honor."
Old Mu shook his head bitterly.
"Heh, honor again?"
"Over the years, we have long been held hostage by this so-called honor!"
"Complacency, pride!"
"Now is the time to sound the alarm. Only after failure can one awaken and truly improve!"
"Though our primary team members cannot compete this time, don't forget: this reserve team is the strongest in the academy's history."
"If Heaven has decided they should be tempered early, why not allow it?"
"Let them perform freely this time!"
Old Mu's one slam settled all matters.
"Lin'er, after the Douhun Tournament ends, send a letter in the name of the Soul Guidance division to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, requesting an exchange, and send our disciples there to study."
"Also, include Huo Yuhao!"
Xian Lin'er was taken aback.
"That's fine, but will the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy agree?"
"And will our disciples… really go?"
Old Mu smiled slightly:"I am not sending them to learn, but to broaden their horizons. At the very least, they must see what the most advanced Soul Guidance Academy on the continent looks like, and the Soul Guidance Devices they use."
"Furthermore, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy will agree. They have long wished to exchange with our Martial Soul division. You tell them: as long as they agree, our ten disciples can visit for exchange as well."
After finalizing these details, Xian Lin'er asked again:"Old Mu, this Huo Yuhao… will he agree?"
"Moreover, Huo Yuhao is a core disciple of the Martial Soul division and has never used a Soul Guidance Device…"
Old Mu's face grew serious:"It is precisely because Huo Yuhao's talent is terrifying that I have chosen him."
"The stronger the talent, the more disdainful a soul master is toward Soul Guidance Devices. If left unchecked, Huo Yuhao will inevitably suffer for it."
"This time, he must participate. The fusion of Soul Guidance Devices with Martial Soul may create a new and unprecedented future!"
Listening to Old Mu's decisive words, Yan Shaozhe could no longer restrain himself.
Yan Shaozhe hesitated:"Teacher, isn't this a bit hasty? Soul Guidance Devices develop rapidly, but once reaching Soul Saint level, soul masters still cannot compare with us Martial Soul masters."
"Idiot!"
"What if war breaks out? The Sun Moon Empire's Soul Guidance Devices have already exceeded your imagination."
"Furthermore, judging by the current situation, they are growing increasingly restless. Do you think our academy can remain unscathed in a large-scale war? The Sun Moon Empire's primary target will be us."
"Every additional soul master equipped with a Soul Guidance Device increases survival chances on the battlefield!"
Hearing Old Mu, the senior elders grew solemn, and Yan Shaozhe was deeply moved.
The decision passed unanimously.
…
Elsewhere.
Tang Ya sat in the dormitory, staring blankly out the window, her face slightly pale.
"Le Xuan said that Inner Academy disciples suffered heavy injuries this mission. I wonder how Xiao Yuhao is…"
"I'm useless. As the Tang Sect leader, I'm the one with the least future. Over a year since breaking the third ring, my soul power has barely progressed, and I'm only level thirty-three."
"What should I do…"
