Chapter 146: The Exchange Program Officially Ends
"Are all these things you're talking about really real? If they are, then as long as you can give me these things to study, I'll take you anywhere!"
Back in his seat, Xuan Ziwen remained unsettled for a long time. What Su Yu had shown him was like a poison with a fatal allure. Knowing that drinking it might kill him, he still couldn't resist drinking it.
Like a datura flower blooming in the sunlight, beautiful yet deadly.
At this moment, Su Yu took out his simplified version of the peacock feather. It took Su Derong, Zhao Huafeng, Liu Ji, and Su Yu himself more than half a year to make this simplified version of the peacock feather.
This peacock feather, only the size of an egg, while not quite as powerful as the one in the original story that could shoot 365 poison needles in one go, incorporated the technique of the Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Deadly Dart.
Within the mental space demonstrated by Su Yu, a peacock feather the size of an egg was casually tossed aside by Su Yu. Then, using his soul power as a medium, he activated the soul guidance array, which triggered the poison needles. One hundred and thirty poison needles, capable of destroying the defenses of a six-ring Soul Emperor, were launched in succession. Unless it was a level seven defensive soul guidance device, it would be destroyed instantly!
In an instant, the poison needles were launched, and the outer shells shattered, transforming into sharp feathers that shot outwards. In order to create these feathers formed from the shattered outer shells, Su Yu had to add several soul-guided core formations as a foundation; otherwise, the outer shells would have shattered before the poison needles were even launched.
At the same time, the second layer of attack was activated, and an iron ball the size of a fingernail was launched. It exploded instantly upon contact with the target. The ball contained poison. Su Yu had put a lot of effort into making these poisons.
Unless it's a specially made antidote, it's impossible to cure the Tang Clan's mixed poison. Unless the opponent's strength has reached above the Soul Douluo level, they can only wait to die!
Because it contains not just one kind of poison, but multiple kinds, including the Ice Toad Poison from the Dream of the Mortal World.
If it weren't for the overly complicated production process and the frequent changes during production, and the fact that Su wasn't so amazing as to be like Tang San, who could learn everything by secretly studying inner sect techniques in a few years.
The peacock feather in his hand was actually fundamentally different from the original peacock feather. Although it was the original, the difficulty of making it would be greatly reduced after being combined with soul guidance, because soul guidance arrays are much more effective than precise mechanisms.
In order to develop such a device, instead of directly continuing the Tang Sect's extremely complicated method of making hidden weapons, Su Yu has been dedicated to solving and redesigning new soul tools during his two years of exchange.
"To make you believe this is true, I'm going to disassemble this soul tool right now in front of you."
As Su Yu slowly disassembled it, the peacock feather revealed its original form.
"Could it really be that such explosive growth has occurred in just these few years?" Xuan Ziwen stared at the incredible soul tool in front of him, his eyes filled with a look of intoxication.
Yes, he wavered; a fierce struggle was raging within him…
"Teacher Xuan, have you made up your mind?" Su Yu put away all his things and slowly asked.
Finally, as if giving up the struggle, Xuan Ziwen let out a weak sigh, "Let me think about it for a few days..."
Su Yu smiled slightly, then handed a letter to Xuan Ziwen and said, "If you've thought it through, you can go find the address on this letter. Someone will take you there. As your student, I'm now giving you this soul tool in my own name."
After assembling the peacock feathers, Su Yu left the place.
Su Yu, transformed into a falling feather, left Xuan Ziwen's office. Although Xuan Ziwen did not express his attitude, he was clearly tempted. Given his personality, it was impossible for him not to be tempted by these new-era soul guide designs.
Regardless of the process, the result has been achieved. Xuan Ziwen may not be aware that Su Yu had already thoroughly detected his mental state.
It's really outrageous. Huo Yuhao, who is level 50, said he was a specialist in close combat soul tools, but when he was fooling Xuan Ziwen, he spent a few months creating a level 9 soul tool.
If they really had that much strength, they could reach level nine every few months. In the later stages, what would they have to fear from the Sun Moon Empire? They could reach level nine every few days. What country could withstand that?
…………
Before leaving, Su Yu made a special visit to Jing Hongchen. This time, Su Yu also made a deal with Jing Hongchen, investing a large amount of gold soul coins at a price 20% higher than the market price to exchange for a large amount of resources from Mingde Hall.
Before leaving, even Jing Hongchen remarked on Su Yu's immense wealth, unaware that this batch of precious metal resources would become Jing Hongchen's greatest regret years later...
Before leaving, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy held a grand farewell party. The happiest group of people were the guys who had defeated Shrek Academy students in the Soul Guidance Exchange Competition.
The event was so lively that even Jing Hongchen and Xu Tianran made a personal appearance.
At the farewell party, Jing Hongchen delivered a passionate speech. Although he had encountered many unpleasant things in the past two years, overall things were still good. After all, that incident was caused by the Body Sect and had nothing to do with Shrek Academy.
Judging from his expression, everything was filled with joy, especially when he looked at Su, he smiled particularly happily. Before leaving, he even asked Su if he was interested in settling down in the Sun Moon Empire after graduating from Shrek Academy.
To this, Su did not give a direct answer, but only said, "Master, my father and my current father were both your students back then, what do you say?"
Upon hearing this, Jing Hongchen's lips almost stretched to the back of his ears in a wide grin. Of course, what he was thinking was unknown. In any case, Su Yu's meaning was quite simple: it was possible, but not necessarily, that he would serve the Sun Moon Empire.
Many people came to see Su off, after all, in Su Yu's hands, almost all the students who came to challenge him were beaten black and blue, except for Luo Yu, who rarely showed up and had never fought him.
Of course, there are also rumors that Su Yu suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Luo Yu, and therefore has never challenged Luo Yu.
Anyway, there are even more outrageous rumors than this. Only Su Yu himself knows that defeating Luo Yu, whom you all talk about, is a piece of cake.
No, to be precise, a single glance is enough.
"His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." With a shout, Xu Tianran, dressed in a yellow robe, was pushed forward by the crowd. Upon seeing Xu Tianran appear, Jing Hongchen also hurriedly stepped forward and pushed him in front of the crowd.
However, among the Crown Prince's guards, Su Yu saw Ju Zi and Luo Yu...
The exchange of students still took place in Maple Leaf City. Jing Hongchen dared not harbor any ulterior motives, after all, his precious grandson and granddaughter were in Shrek Academy's hands.
When He Caitou and Su Yu appeared in Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er's sight, both of them looked somewhat bewildered. Although they were pleasantly surprised, when they saw Su Yu bargaining with Jing Hongchen, both Yan Shaozhe, who was leading the team, and the others were petrified.
"Dean Yan, hello. It seems you've made progress again after all these years." After finishing their discussion, Jing Hongchen stepped forward and shook hands with Yan Shaozhe.
These two old foxes seem closer than anyone else, but in private they dislike each other more than anyone else. If you didn't know better, you would think they were some kind of very close relatives.
Yan Shaozhe replied with a smile, "Master Jing, I have returned your grandson and granddaughter to you intact. They have made great progress in the past two years. I hope that we can continue to exchange and learn from each other like we did today."
Jing Hongchen nodded, "If I have time, I would like to discuss with your academy whether we can continue this exchange and learning program in the future."
After the mutual flattery, each side called their students back to their respective groups. However, it remains to be seen who benefited the most from this exchange.
In the original story, Huo Yuhao gave Jing Hongchen a hard time before leaving, which led to Jing Hongchen sending Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng to hunt them down. Before that, Wang Dong even visited the Sun Moon Empire and took Huo Yuhao to meet his parents, causing Electrolux to sacrifice himself, all to give Huo Yuhao an extra advantage.
However, Su Yu is having a smooth journey so far. Before leaving, he even had a friendly business discussion with Jing Hongchen, managing to extract some materials from him based on some of his own designs.
At the time, Su Yu pretended to be at a disadvantage, lowering the price by more than half. Little did he know that a defective design blueprint was only worth ten silver dragon scales and twenty kilograms of extraterrestrial meteorite iron in exchange for Jing Hongchen.
However, who knew that Jing Hongchen would be so generous? Su Yu casually asked for a price no less than Huo Yuhao's price back then, and finally Jing Hongchen agreed after he cut it down to 10%.
Jing Hongchen, who thought he had gotten a great deal, was actually the one who suffered a real loss. The improved mechanism had too many flaws. To prevent Jing Hongchen from getting angry, Su Yu even repeatedly reminded him that the design was still in its infancy and had many problems, and that he should choose carefully. But at the time, Jing Hongchen didn't pay any attention to these things...
Although it's only one-tenth, these things are more than enough for Xuan Ziwen to use alone.
However, if Xuan Ziwen finds out he's been fooled after arriving at the Myriad Mirrors Sect, will he want to smash the Myriad Mirrors Sect to pieces?
Of course, this is something I have to handle myself...
The journey was uneventful, and nothing unexpected happened. In fact, many times, the reason why Huo Yuhao encountered danger was largely due to his own recklessness.
Although there was no real danger, Elder Yi still told him that there was an extremely powerful person secretly watching them.
If Su Yu wasn't mistaken, it was most likely Long Xiaoyao. That old guy talked a big game about himself, but in the end, he obediently followed Elder Mu's last words and arranged everything clearly for Huo.
Thinking of this, Su Yu recalled Ye Xishui's story. In fact, all three of them were defeated by reality. Ye Xishui herself was a member of the Holy Spirit Cult. Her appearance meant that everything was meticulously planned. However, unexpected things always happened in the process.
This outcome wasn't unexpected. However, what Su Yu was concerned about was why Long Xiaoyao continued to follow Ye Xishui after he had his own family. What about his family and his descendants?
It's just gone? You're just going to leave it like that?
One must take things one step at a time. The Douluo Continent is only so big. If the two of them really had the ability to search the entire continent, why would they be so lost, ultimately leading to that melodramatic ending?
Led by Yan Shaozhe, Su Yu saw Elder Xuan on Shrek City. Elder Xuan had been waiting there for a long time.
"Everyone, go back and rest. Su Yu, and He Caitou, you two will stay at the Sea God Pavilion for now. We'll arrange accommodations for you after the event ends in a few days. Su Yu, your original accommodation has been assigned to someone else. Wang Dong has also been assigned a new dormitory, a single room!"
Hearing the first half of the sentence, and seeing that Su's face was getting more and more unpleasant, Elder Xuan deliberately added that Wang Dong had also changed dormitories and was now in a single room, which prevented an accident from happening.
"An event? The Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event?" Su Yu asked subconsciously.
"It's your inner court assessment," Yan Shaozhe said at this moment.
"Oh, I understand." After giving a few instructions, everyone left. Su Yu also slowly landed. After all, Shrek City's rules were extremely strict, so he could no longer fly after Elder Xuan left.
The moment he stepped into Shrek City, a figure walked past him. Smelling the familiar scent, Su Yu turned around and looked at the figure.
It was a woman, tall and slender, wearing a white dress, with her long, wavy hair flowing down her back. A veil covered her face, and as a gentle breeze blew by, her veil suddenly fell away, and a fragrant scent wafted towards Su Yu.
As the veil was lifted by the wind, their gazes met at that moment.
Imperial auspicious beast, it's been a long time.
Su Yu took the veil and handed it back to the girl who looked exactly like Wang Dong. He slowly said, "It's been a long time. I didn't expect to see you again after I left the Star Dou Great Forest. Should I call you the Imperial Auspicious Beast or the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?"
"Give it back." The girl ignored Su Yu's words and simply stretched out her hand.
"for you."
Su Yu knew that she didn't want to reveal too much right now, but there would be a lot of trouble in the future.
Damn it, it's most likely Tang's doing!
