Chapter 120 Dual Cultivation! Ice Emperor Didn't Sacrifice? Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm is Stunned
Xian Lin'er looked at Xue Di, her tone filled with anticipation:
"I hope to see the answer in you."
Xue Di nodded slightly. "Thank you."
Bing Di sat beside her, resting her chin on her hand, her beautiful eyes darting around.
She didn't say anything, but she was already thinking to herself, what's the difference between these humans fighting over each other and the soul beasts in the far north fighting for territory?
Seeing that both Xue Di and Cui Yajie favored the Soul Guidance Department, Yan Shaozhe knew that further arguing was pointless.
He quickly gathered the remaining people together.
"Hua Bin, then you and Zhu Lu will officially join the core disciple sequence of the Spirit System."
"No problem."
Yan Shaozhe then looked at Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao.
"Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, where are you two?"
Wang Dong'er leaned back in her chair with her arms crossed, and spoke upon hearing this:
"I'm joining the Spirit Department. Thank you, Dean."
Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement: "I'll also choose the Spirit system. Thank you, Dean."
Yan Shaozhe breathed a sigh of relief, finally managing to preserve his core support.
The four people are Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, Wang Dong'er, and Xiao Xiao. Among them, two are of the Ultimate Ice type, one is the Goddess of Light Butterfly and a direct descendant of the Clear Sky Sect, and the other has twin Spirits. In the Spirit system, the quality of this year's group is simply heaven-defying.
Cai Meier watched as Yan Shaozhe finally showed a smile, thinking to herself, "You can finally relax. Just now, his old face was almost green."
Although Xian Lin'er didn't get Dai Huabin, she did get a level 65 Ultimate Ice Soul Emperor and a Spirit-type Nine-Tailed Fox, so it wasn't a wasted trip.
Qian Duoduo stood quietly behind her, seemingly unnoticed, but in his mind he was already planning what kind of laboratory to arrange for Xue Qingyao.
Just when everyone thought the matter was settled, Xuanzi, who had been mostly silent in the corner, suddenly put down his wine pot.
"Wait a moment."
Everyone's eyes turned to that direction at once.
Xuanzi put his legs down and leaned forward slightly.
"Old Mu once told me that one should not be too rigid or petty. Soul tools are the future trend."
Xuanzi paused for a moment, letting the words linger in everyone's minds.
"So, Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and Xue Qingyao."
Xuanzi called out names one by one.
"Would the three of you be willing to become students who cultivate both systems simultaneously?"
There was a moment of silence in the lounge.
Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er exchanged a glance but remained silent.
Xuanzi continued:
"The academy will not force you to learn how to make soul tools, but you need to master how to use them."
Simply put, it's about making you powerful Soul Masters capable of using powerful Soul Tools.
Dai Huabin quickly went through it in his mind.
Both systems are practiced simultaneously.
This suggestion is actually quite good; it's essentially equivalent to having a combat-ready Soul Instructor for the Sun Moon Empire.
He had originally planned to find an opportunity to work with soul tools, but he didn't want to spend his energy on making them.
If all you need to do is learn how to use it, the time cost is much lower.
Moreover, these words were spoken by Xuanzi, and it is quite obvious that Xuanzi said these words to Mu En.
Mu En's words carried more weight at Shrek Academy than those of Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er combined.
Since he brought it up, it means that this was not just a casual remark, but a well-thought-out arrangement.
"Thank you, Academy." Dai Huabin nodded.
Zhu Lu echoed, "Thank you, Academy."
Xue Di nodded: "Okay, thank you."
Xuanzi grunted in satisfaction and took another swig from the wine jug.
"Alright. As for the meditation slots for the Golden Tree..."
"You'll know once you enter the inner courtyard."
The rest is simple.
Yan Shaozhe and Cai Meier left first. Before leaving, Yan Shaozhe patted Dai Huabin on the shoulder and told him to go to the Spirit Department's teaching office tomorrow to complete the procedures for becoming a core disciple.
Xuanzi also left, carrying a wine jug and swaying as he disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Qian Duoduo followed behind Xian Lin'er and finally spoke her first words of the day:
"Dean Xian, the arrangements for the laboratory..."
"We'll talk about it when we get back," Xian Lin'er interrupted him.
Then, she turned to Dai Huabin and the others, her face changing to a warm expression.
"Since the three of you are all going to cultivate two systems at the same time, why don't you come with me to the Soul Guidance Department now? Get familiar with the environment first, so you won't get lost later."
Dai Huabin wanted to refuse, but then he glanced at Xue Di.
Xue Di's expression remained indifferent, but she nodded slightly: "Okay."
"Okay, let's go take a look around."
The group left the lounge and headed towards the Soul Guidance Department.
Xian Lin'er walked ahead, explaining the layout and curriculum of the Soul Guidance Department to Xue Di and Cui Yajie as they went.
Qian Duoduo followed behind her, occasionally adding a few words.
Zhu Lu walked close to Dai Huabin, her voice very low.
"Hua Bin, didn't you say that there weren't any powerful Soul Guidance Masters in the Soul Guidance Department? Why did you agree to go?"
"Going to take a look won't hurt."
"Oh. Then why did you send Sister Xue'er and Ya Jie to the Soul Guidance Department just now?"
"Xue'er is curious about soul tools, and her cultivation speed is already faster than that of ordinary geniuses, so she has more time to learn about soul tools. Ya Jie's nine-tailed fox does need an attack method. Soul tools are indeed good for Ya Jie."
Zhu Lu thought about it and felt it made sense.
Bing Di walked beside Xue Di, her twin ponytails swaying with each step.
She had absolutely no interest in any soul guidance system; she was simply following Xue Di.
Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Cui Yajie walked at the very back.
"Ya Jie, are you really going to the Soul Guidance Department?" Xiao Xiao asked softly.
"It's not like we're transferring over; we're just going to learn how to use a soul tool."
Cui Yajie brushed her long pink hair aside.
"Besides, don't you think Dean Xian is a nice person? At least she seems much more approachable than Dean Cai."
"That's true."
Wang Dong'er remained silent, her attention focused on Dai Huabin's retreating figure as he walked ahead.
She didn't get any of those things: dual cultivation, core disciple, or the Golden Tree.
The gap between level 34 and level 45 cannot be bridged by a few snow lotuses.
She suppressed the thought and quickened her pace to catch up with the group.
When she returns to the Clear Sky Sect next time, she will become even stronger!
The Soul Guidance Department's teaching building is separated from the Spirit Department's building by half a campus. Its exterior walls are made of gray-white stone bricks, and its architectural style is more square and cold than that of the Spirit Department.
Xian Lin'er pushed open the side door and led everyone through a corridor.
Several students carrying parts and blueprints hurried past in the corridor, and greeted Xian Lin'er when they saw her.
Dai Huabin glanced around, his gaze casually sweeping across the end of the corridor.
At that very moment, he paused slightly.
At the corner of the corridor, a burly young man was walking over from the other side.
With broad shoulders and a muscular build, his demeanor was completely different from that of ordinary trainees, exuding a heavy and oppressive aura.
Huo Yuhao?
Dai Huabin silently repeated the name in his mind.
He recognized him. Although Huo Yuhao's appearance had changed a lot since last semester, when he was a thin boy, he now looked like a completely different person.
But the outline of that face remained unchanged, and coupled with that icy aura, it was the Titan Snow Demon.
Dai Huabin remained silent. He looked away and continued walking forward with Xian Lin'er as if nothing had happened.
But his mind was already working.
In the original novel, Huo Yuhao's second Spirit should be the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion given to him by the Ice Emperor.
But Bing Di is walking right beside him now, transformed into a haughty little girl with pigtails.
Therefore, Huo Yuhao did not obtain the Ice Emperor, but instead fused with the Titan Snow Demon.
This also means that Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm should now know that the Ice Emperor is no longer in the far north.
The commotion surrounding today's promotion assessment was so great that the aura of extreme ice permeated half of the arena. It was impossible for Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, with its million-year-old Spiritual power, not to have sensed it.
Dai Huabin walked forward calmly, his heartbeat steady.
He brushed past Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao kept his head down, seemingly lost in thought, and didn't pay much attention to the group of people.
But Dai Huabin knew that even if Huo Yuhao didn't notice, the worm in his brain definitely did.
Sure enough, Huo Yuhao's steps suddenly froze when he reached the corner.
In his spiritual sea, the voice of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly rose in pitch.
"Wait! Stop!"
Huo Yuhao stopped instinctively.
"What's wrong, Brother Tianmeng?"
"Among that group of people who just walked past..."
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's voice trembled.
"There are two... two that don't seem right."
"What aura?"
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm did not answer immediately.
It frantically recalls and analyzes the information it captured in that brief moment.
It sensed the presence of Bing Di.
It wasn't the residual fluctuations of Ultimate Ice, but a living, vivid, breathing aura of the Ice Emperor's original essence.
But that's impossible.
It had already analyzed it back in the arena.
The extreme ice on Dai Huabin's body was mixed with human soul power, suppressing the soul beast attributes. Its judgment was that the Ice Emperor had sacrificed herself.
But just now, among the group of people who brushed past us, there was a girl with bright green twin ponytails, and that was the form of Bing Di in her human form.
The living Bing Di.
It is not a remnant of the sacrifice, nor a mark within the Spirit; it is the true form of the Ice Emperor.
She lives, walking in human form on human campuses.
And it's not just Bing Di.
Although the aura of the white-haired woman beside her was mostly concealed by some means, the chilling aura emanating from the depths and the oppressive presence of the highest level of the far north still remained.
She is the Snow Goddess and Snow Emperor.
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's thoughts almost stopped for a moment.
Bing Di didn't die.
The Snow Emperor was also there.
Both of them were alive and appeared beside Dai Huabin in human form.
But they didn't have the aura of soul beasts on them.
This is what Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm finds most incomprehensible.
Before a transformed soul beast reaches maturity, its aura cannot be concealed.
No matter how well it's disguised, it's impossible for it to be completely flawless under its million-year-old Spiritual power.
But neither the Ice Emperor nor the Snow Emperor had any trace of spirit beast scent.
It was as if they had become real humans.
"Brother Tianmeng?" Huo Yuhao's voice came from afar, "What exactly did you sense?"
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm remained silent for a long time.
"Yuhao," its voice lowered, "Brother's previous judgment may have been wrong."
"Wrong? What do you mean?"
"Bing Di did not make any sacrifices."
Huo Yuhao was stunned.
"She's still alive. And she's among the group of people who just walked past you."
Huo Yuhao turned around abruptly, staring at the direction where the group of people had disappeared at the end of the corridor.
But the corridor was empty, with only faint footsteps and voices coming from afar.
Those people are Dai Huabin!
Huo Yuhao had just suppressed his anger because he was afraid of exposing himself.
But Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm said that Bing Di appeared next to Dai Huabin?
"And the Snow Emperor." Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's voice grew softer and softer, as if she were talking to herself.
"They are all with Dai Huabin. They are all alive. None of them have the aura of a soul beast."
"What exactly is going on?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao became even more puzzled.Loving Book So Far?Read Advanced Chapters at P@ Tre On
