"Xiao An, with your talent, it's only a matter of time before you master soul forging. Before becoming a master craftsman, you also need to master heaven forging. Heaven forging is a difficult forging method that goes one step further on the basis of spirit forging and soul forging. A forger who performs heaven forging needs to have a very deep understanding and precise control over various metal materials." "During the process of Heavenly Forging, the blacksmith must combine his own strength with the power of heaven and earth, guiding the elements of heaven and earth to blend into the metal being forged. Metal objects forged through Heavenly Forging often possess great power and special properties." "Heavenly forging is extremely difficult, and it has extremely high requirements on the forger's physical fitness, mental strength, and ability to perceive the elements. Successful heavenly forging can create artifact-level equipment, but artifacts created by mortals are not real artifacts after all. Only gods can create real artifacts." "Heavenly Refining is a state of mind. Everyone's perception of it is different. I cannot teach you this. You can only understand it on your own." Siyuan’s words kept echoing in Ye Qian’an’s mind. He didn’t know when he entered Shrek Academy. He walked around Shrek Academy like a lost soul, with Siyuan’s words repeating in his mind. "Qian'an, Qi'an." At this moment, an anxious voice came. Ye Qian'an, who was a little dazed, looked back and saw Vice President Cai Meir walking towards him. "When did you come back? I was wondering why I couldn't find you. Turns out you ran to Dong'er's side. Come with me quickly." Cai Meir came closer and without saying anything, she pulled the distraught Ye Qian'an away. Ye Qian, who had come to his senses, asked in confusion: "President Cai, what's wrong? What happened?" Cai Meier said: "You will know if you come with me."

"Oh." Ye Qian nodded in response. The two of them came to the first floor of Poseidon Pavilion together. As expected, at the conference table, Elder Xuan sat at the top seat, followed by Elder Song, Xian Lin'er and Yan Shaozhe. Together with Ye Qian'an and Cai Meir, they accounted for half of the Poseidon Pavilion meeting members. When they saw Ye Qian'an, everyone smiled kindly, but when they saw Ye Qian'an's distraught look, they couldn't help but reveal a bit of doubt. Xuan Lao frowned slightly and asked, "Qian, what's wrong with you? Why are you so uneasy?" Ye Qi'an came back to his senses and hurriedly bowed, saying, "Master Xuan, fellow seniors, I just listened to Senior Siyuan's words about Tianduan, and I was inspired. I was distracted for a moment, so please forgive me." When everyone heard this, their expressions were all shocked. Elder Song nodded slightly and said, "We have all heard about the difficulty of Tianduan. This is indeed a road full of challenges." Elder Xuan said, "Mei'er has told me about your trip. It seems that the soul master world on the mainland is going to undergo a big change! First, there was the Holy Spirit Cult, then the Dark Holy Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao resurfaced, and then there are the three evil soul masters this time. I'm afraid that in the near future, we will face a lot of trouble. These evil soul masters are no longer something that ordinary members of the Supervisory Group can fight against. We must also be cautious. Qi'an, tell me about your experimental research results." "Yeah, okay." Ye Qian nodded. “There are three people participating in this experiment. The ones who need to obtain spirit rings are Huo Yuhao, Li Yongyue, and Mo Xuan. Among them, Li Yongyue and Mo Xuan’s spirit rings were condensed by themselves after their bloodline condensed. According to the results, the bloodline condensation experiment can be called perfect. As for Huo Yuhao, he obtained the spirit ring by hunting spirit beasts. As for the twin martial spirits, I haven’t thought of a solution yet.” After Ye Qian'an finished speaking, everyone fell into deep thought. Xian Lin'er was the first to speak: "This method of blood coagulation is indeed wonderful. If it can be further improved, it will undoubtedly be a great help to our continent. But the issue of twin martial spirits is indeed thorny and requires long-term consideration." Yan Shaozhe nodded slightly and said, "That's right. The special nature of twin martial spirits makes it difficult to obtain spirit rings. However, Qi'an, your research has taken an important step. I believe that given time, you will be able to find a solution." Cai Meier looked at Ye Qian'an, her eyes full of expectation: "Qian, have you made any new discoveries or ideas in your research that can provide some clues to solving the problem of twin martial spirits?" Ye Qian thought for a moment and said, "I don't have a clear idea yet, but I think we can start from the mutual influence between the twin martial souls and the relationship with the bloodline, and further explore. Maybe we can find a balanced method to make it easier to obtain the spirit rings of the twin martial souls." Elder Xuan nodded slightly and said, "Well, this direction is worth a try. However, while researching, we must also pay attention to safety. The appearance of these evil soul masters makes the situation more complicated, and we must be fully prepared." Elder Xuan nodded slightly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes: "Okay, let's stop here for today. Everyone go back. You can start preparing for today's proposal when you go back. We will hold a meeting of the Sea God Pavilion tomorrow to finalize it. Shaozhe, go call the Shrek Seven Devils, Gu Yuena, Ye Xiyao and the others. I have something to say to them." Soon, Beibei, He Caitou, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, Xiaoxiao, Huo Yuhao and Wang Donger all arrived, followed by Gu Yuena and Ye Xiyao. However, they were obviously not qualified to sit at the meeting table of Poseidon Pavilion, so they stood in a row in front of Elder Xuan. As a member of the Poseidon Pavilion meeting, Ye Qian'an was of course allowed to sit down, so Gu Yuena and Ye Xiyao stood beside him respectively.

"Well, everyone is here. That's good. I called you here because I have something important to discuss with you." Old Xuan picked up the wine gourd beside him and took a sip. Bei Bei said respectfully: "Master Xuan, please speak." Xuan Lao said: "There are less than three months left before the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition. I believe you are all almost ready, right?" Beibei said, "Yes. I was planning to report to you as well. After Yuhao and Caitou came back, we have already had many runs-in sessions. When you are free, please test our current capabilities." "No need for the test for now. I called you here this time to talk about the competition. Not long ago, we just got a piece of news. This news is not good for the academy, but it is an opportunity for you. The new session of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition will be held in the Sun-Moon Empire. There is no doubt that you will be under great pressure to compete in the territory of our biggest competitor. The Sun-Moon Empire recently negotiated with the three countries that originally belonged to the Douluo Continent, and wanted to modify the competition system to a certain extent, and widely solicited opinions from many academies and continental sects." "Change the competition system?" Beibei's eyes narrowed. As a contestant from the continent's top academy, there is no doubt that the changes to the competition system of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition will inevitably target Shrek Academy. Xuan Laodao: "Yes, they will change the competition system. The first thing they want to change is the eligibility of the competition. The age limit of participants remains unchanged, still under 20 years old. This has no impact. But they will expand the scope, and all sects can participate. In other words, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition will be changed to the Continental Youth Soul Master Competition. The number of participating teams will also increase significantly. If the new competition system is finally passed, then the number of participating teams will at least double." Huo Yuhao asked: "Master Xuan, is there a high chance that this new competition system will be passed?" Elder Xuan said without hesitation: "Very big! The emergence of this new competition system has first received support from various sects on the continent, especially the powerful sects. Competitions are the best opportunity to show oneself, and for these sects, it is naturally a rare publicity resource. They are naturally willing. For example, an existence like the Body Sect, don't they have the confidence to win the championship?" "Confident? Who gave them the confidence? Five years ago, I was able to beat them with my level 40 spirit power. Now that the sect is participating in the competition, I can still beat them. Let's not talk about anything else, just think about whether those participating academies have the strength to defeat the Titled Douluo?" Ye Qian'an, who was sitting at the conference table, spoke up. Elder Xuan waved his hand and said, "No matter how the competition system changes, I have confidence in you. Although the change in the competition system is not a bad thing for the academy, it is a good thing for the Shrek Seven Devils. The seven of you belong to the same sect." After hearing these words, the Shrek Seven Devils were suddenly shocked. Xu Sanshi was surprised and said, "Master Xuan, you mean to allow us to represent the Tang Sect to go..." Master Xuan smiled and said, "It's not that I allow you, but it depends on whether you are willing or not." The expressions of the seven people changed a little and they looked at each other. Elder Xuan said: "If the seven of you participate in the competition under the name of Tang Sect, then the academy will send another team to participate." Bei Bei hesitated and said, "But if we win the championship, the glorious inheritance that the academy has passed down for many years will be... and if we represent the Tang Sect in the competition, we will also face some problems. For example, we have not prepared substitute players yet. Also, can the academy send a suitable team to participate?" Elder Xuan smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what Ye Qian'an said just now? He is the same age as you all. Whether it is his sister Ye Xiyao or Gu Yuena, the three of them are Soul Saints. With this configuration, even if they form a new team in the academy, they will easily win. Now the seven of you can give me an answer." Beibei and others looked at each other, exchanging various thoughts in their eyes. After a moment, Bei Bei stepped forward and said solemnly: "Master Xuan, we, the Shrek Seven Devils, want to represent the Tang Sect in the battle." Huo Yuhao, Wang Donger and others also nodded in agreement. After Master Xuan got the seven people's ideas, he showed a look as if he had known this for a long time. He just told them to prepare well, and told them the registration method after the competition system was finally determined. "Now that it has been confirmed, I will leave first. Naer, Xiyao, let's go." Ye Qian'an said as he stood up from the chair beside the conference table in Poseidon Pavilion. After coming out of Poseidon Pavilion, the three did not stay for long. As soon as they crossed Poseidon Lake, Ye Qian'an saw two familiar figures at a glance. Seeing these two, Ye Qian'an's eyes froze for a moment, and he murmured, "You two are really haunting me!" Jing Ziyan put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Why, Ye Qian'an, you don't welcome me? If you don't agree, let's have a fight first!" Jing Ziyan might be joking, but Ji Juechen took it seriously! Holding the Longyuan sword forged by Ye Qian, he pointed the tip of the sword forward, and the sword energy was about to burst out. The name of sword maniac was not called for nothing. "You are not studying at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. You came all the way here just to fight with me, right?" Ye Qian'an frowned slightly.

Ji Juechen immediately shook his head, but Jing Ziyan immediately said, "We came here to play many games." "That's not necessary!" Ye Qianan said, "Fight a lot? Don't you have to go to school?" Ji Juechen said: "I dropped out of school." Jing Ziyan said seriously, "When you were about to leave, we discussed it and agreed that every time we spar with you, our strength grows far more than what we learned in the academy. We both prefer soul masters. So, we think this place may be more suitable for us. So we came here. Anyway, we don't have anything to worry about. You just need to find a place for us to live. Then, you can play with us every day, or you can choose not to. Then, wherever you go, we will go with you." Ji Juechen raised Long Yuan in his hand and said, "Now that I have made myself clear, can we start fighting?" Gu Yuena had no intention of helping Ye Qian'an at all, but just stood aside and watched the fun. "You use the sword I forged for you to hit me?" Ye Qian'an looked at the Longyuan Sword in Ji Juechen's hand, and a complex emotion surged in his heart. Ji Juechen had a blank expression on his face, but his eyes were full of desire for battle, "This sword can test your strength." Jing Ziyan said with a smile: "Ye Qian, don't refuse, just fight quickly. We have been looking forward to it for a long time." Ye Qian shook his head helplessly, "Why are you doing this?" Ye Xiyao stood up at this time, "Brother, since they are so persistent, you should fight with them. Let them see how powerful you are." Ye Qian'an took a deep breath and his eyes gradually became sharper. "Okay, since you must fight with me, then I will grant your wish. Let my sister Ye Xiyao fight with you in this battle." Before Ye Xiyao could react, Ye Qian'an reached out and grabbed Ye Xiyao's collar and instantly pulled her in front of the two of them. Ye Xiyao looked stunned. Before she could say anything, Jing Ziyan and Ji Juechen were also stunned. Jing Ziyan was the first to react, and she put her hands on her hips and said, "Ye Qian'an, are you kidding me? But it doesn't matter, since you let your sister fight, we are not afraid either." Ji Juechen nodded slightly, the Longyuan Sword in his hand shook, and sword energy emanated faintly. Ye Xiyao looked at her brother helplessly, "Brother, are you selling your sister now?" Ye Qian smiled and said, "Xiyao, you are my good sister. I will only give you two moves and then defeat them." Ye Xiyao snorted, "Brother, you think too highly of me, but since you said so, I'll give it a try." She turned to look at Jing Ziyan and Ji Juechen, her eyes lit with fighting spirit, "Come on, let me show you my strength." Jing Ziyan raised the corner of her mouth, "Humph, you are so arrogant, let's see how powerful these two moves of yours are." Ji Juechen still had no expression on his face, but he raised the Longyuan Sword in his hand slightly, ready for battle. However, the fact is that the battle ended faster than anyone thought. Ye Xiyao's figure flashed, her soul power burst out instantly, and a powerful light shot out from her hand. Jing Ziyan and Ji Juechen hurriedly resisted, but the light was extremely fast and broke through their defenses in an instant. After one move, the two were forced to retreat again and again. Ye Xiyao did not pause and immediately made another move. Her soul power condensed into a powerful shock wave, which went straight towards Jing Ziyan and Ji Juechen. The two of them had no time to make an effective defense and were knocked away by the shock wave. The battle ended in an instant. Jing Ziyan and Ji Juechen got up from the ground with complicated expressions on their faces. "Okay, come with me after the fight. Shrek Academy doesn't have a place for you to stay. I'll take you to my manor." Ye Qian'an waved his hand and walked to Gu Yuena, took her hand, and walked towards the outside of Shrek City. ………(End of chapter)
