Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Qian Renxue’s Desire to Recruit
At this moment, She Long continued his report: "Young Master, there's another point worth noting.
According to the information gathered, Mu Yang's original hair color was red, but now it's blue.
Moreover, back in the forest, when I used my spiritual power to observe him closely, I saw that his martial soul had two leaves, one red and one blue, with a main body resembling a jade-like ginseng. It possesses dual attributes of ice and fire.
However, based on the investigation, his original martial soul was just an ordinary ginseng. It seems his martial soul underwent a transformation and evolution."
"A martial soul evolution?"
Qian Renxue frowned. While it wasn't entirely impossible for a martial soul to evolve, a transformation of this magnitude—one that even changed its attributes—was something she had never heard of before.
Furthermore, cases of martial soul evolution didn't typically occur in low-level soul masters. Such changes were usually seen only after a soul master reached the nine-ring Title Douluo level.
It was precisely because a soul master's martial soul underwent a substantial qualitative transformation upon advancing to the nine-ring Title Douluo stage that all Title Douluos possessed top-tier martial souls.
The qualitative change brought about by advancing to the nine-ring stage, combined with the accumulations from the previous eight breakthroughs, was enough to elevate any martial soul to the level of a top-tier martial soul.
"Sky Water Academy doesn't admit male students. Do you know why he was able to enroll there?"
Temporarily setting aside the peculiarity of Mu Yang's martial soul evolution, Qian Renxue turned to She Long and asked.
"Well… according to the investigation, Shui Bing'er, the niece of Shui Yanyu, is in a relationship with Mu Yang. Perhaps it's this relationship, coupled with his innate full soul power, that led Shui Yanyu to break tradition?"
She Long replied with some uncertainty.
"Hmph, so young and already indulging in romance. It seems he's not as remarkable as he appears."
Hearing that even a ten-year-old child had a girlfriend, Qian Renxue, who had just been pressured about marriage the previous day, couldn't help but feel a bit sour and made a sarcastic remark.
At twenty years old, Qian Renxue's girlhood had quietly passed her by. It wasn't that she had never fantasized about such things.
Unfortunately, as Qian Renxue and the disguised Xue Qinghe, she had understood from the moment she came to the Heaven Dou Empire to execute her coup plan that love was not something she could afford.
Even if the day came when she could return to her true identity, by then, she would have already ascended to the Heaven Dou throne. At that point, it was unlikely she'd ever have the chance for a sweet romance.
No, no—who was she? She was Qian Renxue, the heir to Spirit Hall, the sole descendant of the Angel Clan, bearing the responsibility of spreading the Angel's radiance across the entire continent. How could she waste time on such trivial matters?
Love? Forget it! Everything must be for the grand plans of Spirit Hall!
After venting her frustrations internally, Qian Renxue said, "Uncle She Long, send someone to keep an eye on Mu Yang in the future."
In Qian Renxue's eyes, Blazing Academy wasn't a force with significant heritage or influence.
As for Mu Yang, with his parents deceased and only being the nephew of Blazing Academy's principal, Huo Lie, through his wife, he wasn't even a direct relative. Getting one high-quality soul bone for him was already generous; the chances of him obtaining more were slim to none.
This meant that for a boy barely over ten years old to possess the soul power of a four-ring Soul Ancestor, even if the growth from refining soul bones was excluded, his cultivation speed was still beyond ordinary comprehension.
Moreover, in Qian Renxue's opinion, ordinary battle soul masters with innate full soul power weren't nearly as valuable as food-type soul masters with the same innate talent.
After all, among the worship elders of Spirit Hall's Worship Hall, which one of them wasn't born with innate full soul power?
While Spirit Hall had a deep foundation, losing one elder was painful, but gaining another would not bring about a qualitative change in Spirit Hall's overall strength.
However, auxiliary, healing, and food-type Title Douluos were different. While these types of Title Douluos might individually appear "weak," they could cause significant changes in their Title Douluo teammates.
With a healing-type Title Douluo as a teammate, one could fight recklessly. As long as they didn't die on the spot, it was nearly impossible for any nine-ring Title Douluo to not recover under their care.
With an auxiliary-type Title Douluo as a teammate, the six elders in the Worship Hall, aside from her grandfather, would all see their strength elevated by at least one level. The boost this would bring to Spirit Hall's overall power was far more impactful than simply gaining another Rank 96 elder.
As for food-type Title Douluos, while they might not match healing-type Douluos in healing ability or auxiliary-type Douluos in support, their abilities were more comprehensive. Additionally, food-type soul masters didn't need to participate directly in battles, making them safer compared to healing and auxiliary Douluos.
Moreover, thanks to the fact that high-level food-type soul techniques could produce soul power food that could be stored indefinitely, as long as the quantity was sufficient, many Title Douluos in Spirit Hall could benefit from them.
If a small soul master faction had to choose between a combat-type Title Douluo and a food-type Title Douluo, they would undoubtedly choose the combat-type one.
But for Spirit Hall, the dominant force in the soul master world, a food-type Title Douluo was far more valuable than a combat-type one. In fact, trading a Rank 99 peerless combat-type Douluo for a food-type Title Douluo might be a tough decision.
However, if the choice was between a Rank 96 combat-type Douluo and a food-type Title Douluo, the latter would undoubtedly be the more beneficial option purely from a profit perspective.
If a food-type Title Douluo were willing to join Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue felt it wouldn't be unreasonable to offer them the position of an elder, even if their soul power was only at Rank 91.
There was no other reason—regardless of whether it was a Rank 91 or Rank 99 food-type Title Douluo, the effectiveness of the soul power food they created would remain unchanged. It would work without any reduction in effect on other Title Douluos of any level.
The only difference was that higher-level food-type Douluos could produce more soul power food.
Therefore, Mu Yang, an innate full soul power food-type soul master with an extraordinary cultivation speed, held immense value in Qian Renxue's eyes.
Spirit Hall's soul masters came from diverse backgrounds. As long as they weren't evil soul masters, Spirit Hall would accept them, with differences only in their treatment.
Given that Spirit Hall's doors were wide open and there was no prior animosity between them, it was natural for Qian Renxue to consider recruiting Mu Yang to serve Spirit Hall.
"Young Master, why not recruit him directly? Spirit Hall is the strongest force in the soul master world. I doubt he'd refuse," She Long asked.
Hearing this, Qian Renxue rolled her eyes and replied, "Just keep monitoring him for now. There will be opportunities in the future."
Shui Yanyu's attitude back then had already indirectly shown that Mu Yang wasn't interested in joining Spirit Hall. Otherwise, why would she keep him hidden?
Of course, if her grandfather were to personally extend an invitation, it would undoubtedly succeed.
A "kind invitation" from the strongest being on the continent was something few could refuse—and even fewer would dare to.
