33: Chapter 32 Luo Ye?

Thoughts racing, Lin Yan couldn't help feeling a bit of a headache at this moment.

If it were really the butterfly effect caused by him, that would be fine; what he feared most was another person undergoing Transmigration or Rebirth popping up, which would really make things lively.

Thinking of this, Lin Yan no longer had the mood to watch Principal Yan Shaozhe and Vice Dean Qian Duoduo quarrel.

Walking between the two of them, Lin Yan interrupted, speaking up: "Two Deans, stop!"

"First of all, thank you both Deans for your high regard, but I have a clear idea about my future cultivation."

"As for which department I will eventually join, it is still too early to talk about this now. We can chat about it later."

With the out Lin Yan provided, Principal Yan Shaozhe and the other were too embarrassed to continue quarrelling in front of a "Junior", so they respectively reined in their tempers and quieted down.

However, at this moment, a trace of regret quietly arose in Principal Yan Shaozhe's heart.

Yesterday, when Lin Yan requested to borrow the Soul Guidance Array, he only thought about how to facilitate this matter and fulfill his agreement with Lin Yan.

He never expected that Lin Yan's Spirit talent would have reached such a high level, yet he would still think about learning spirit tools?

Isn't this straying onto a wrong path and wasting his talent!

Actually, Principal Yan Shaozhe really misunderstood Lin Yan in this matter; what Lin Yan was interested in was merely the system of the Soul Guidance Array, which contained the operating laws of energy on the Douluo Continent.

As for the production and improvement of the current mainstream war-type and functional-type spirit tools on the continent, he actually didn't have much interest.

Because the upper limit of the spirit tool system in this era was still too low; even with the Prajna Heart Lamp in his possession, wanting to elevate it to the standards of Douluo III or Douluo IV by his own strength alone meant waiting goodness knows how long.

If he had this kind of energy, he would have already become a god!

Therefore, what Lin Yan asked Principal Yan Shaozhe for earlier was just the Soul Guidance Array, rather than all spirit tool blueprints.

Regarding Spirit technology, at most Lin Yan would go see if he could pull off things like battle armors and artificial Spirits in the future; as for other civilian and military spirit tools, he'd better leave them for the Douluo people to solve themselves!

Seeing that the two had completely calmed down, Lin Yan immediately looked at Vice Dean Qian Duoduo and asked the question he cared about most at the moment: "Vice Dean Qian, I just heard you mention that the Sun Moon Empire has created mechas. What are those? Can you tell me about them?"

Looking at the look of curiosity Lin Yan deliberately put on, Vice Dean Qian Duoduo scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and said: "Actually, I don't know much about mechas either. At present, mechas are still a top-secret special project over there."

"However, according to our current intelligence deductions, this should be a large-scale spirit tool that can be piloted by a Spirit Master to amplify a Spirit Master's strength."

Hearing this, Lin Yan casually pursued the question again: "Then do you know who proposed this 'mecha' project?"

Vice Dean Qian Duoduo furrowed his brows slightly, pondered for a moment, and said with a tone of some uncertainty: "It seems to have been proposed by someone named 'Luo Ye'."

Luo Ye?!

Hearing this unfamiliar name, the doubts in Lin Yan's heart not only did not dissipate, but instead grew even heavier.

It seemed that afterwards, he still needed to find an opportunity to investigate what was going on over at the Sun Moon side; hopefully, the situation wouldn't be too terrible...

Temporarily suppressing the doubts in his heart, Lin Yan turned his head to look at Principal Yan Shaozhe and asked: "Principal Yan, how is the situation on your side?"

Principal Yan Shaozhe glanced sideways at Vice Dean Qian Duoduo beside him and said: "Xiao Lin, my teacher said he wants to see you. If you can obtain his approval, then the reading rights to the Inner Court Library certainly won't be a problem."

"By then, the only obstacle left will just be the Soul Tool Department~"

Hearing Principal Yan Shaozhe's passive-aggressive words, Vice Dean Qian Duoduo immediately retorted: "Principal Yan Shaozhe, who are you playing Yin and Yang with? If Elder Mu nods, would I deliberately block it!"

As Vice Dean Qian Duoduo's voice fell, Principal Yan Shaozhe immediately looked at Lin Yan and slowly said: "Mm, now Vice Dean Qian has also agreed."

"Then next, it depends on whether you can win my teacher's recognition. If it doesn't work out, then in a short time it really won't be possible."

Hearing this, Vice Dean Qian Duoduo's face immediately darkened: Old scoundrel Principal Yan Shaozhe!

Afterwards, under Principal Yan Shaozhe's guidance, Lin Yan arrived at the Sea God Pavilion.

Upon reaching outside the door, Principal Yan Shaozhe first faced the Sea God Pavilion, bowed, and then said in a solemn voice: "Teacher, Lin Yan has come."

As his voice fell, an aged voice slowly rang out from within the Sea God Pavilion.

"Let him in."

Receiving Principal Yan Shaozhe's cue, Lin Yan nodded slightly, an appropriate look of apprehension and anticipation emerging on his face as he raised his hand to push open the door and stepped into the hall.

The first floor of the Sea God Pavilion was simple and solemn, with only a long table in the center of the spacious hall.

In the shadows at the end of the long table, a hazy and soft figure leaned quietly against a recliner.

Lin Yan knew clearly that the person sitting there was Shrek Academy's Propelling White Jade Pillar, the ninety-ninth-rank Ultimate Douluo — Elder Mu En!

"Junior Lin Yan greets Senior."

Elder Mu En gently waved at Lin Yan, his vicissitudinous and gentle voice slowly ringing out in the hall.

"Don't be nervous, child, come over."

"Yes, Senior."

Lin Yan stepped forward, and when he saw clearly Elder Mu En's familiar face filled with a benevolent smile, he appropriately revealed a trace of astonishment.

This subtle change in expression was completely taken in by Elder Mu En. He smiled gently and asked softly: "Child, did you recognize me?"

Lin Yan nodded gently and said in a clear voice: "Are you the old grandfather who often basks in the sun in front of the dormitory building on ordinary days?"

Hearing this, Elder Mu En nodded slightly, looking like an ordinary elder with a gentle and unpretentious smile: "It's me. When people get old, they just like to look more at you energetic children. You are the future..."

Lin Yan stood quietly to the side, listening silently without interrupting.

A moment later, Elder Mu En's gaze fell gently on him, asking warmly: "Child, can you tell this old man what you want to enter the Library for?"

Facing the inquiry, Lin Yan answered frankly without hesitation: "To study."

"Just to study?"

Nodding, Lin Yan then added: "I have always believed that the knowledge left in books by our predecessors is the most precious wealth left to later generations."

Hearing this, Elder Mu En nodded with a smile, feeling deeply moved: "Indeed, knowledge is the most priceless wealth. It seems useless, but in reality, it moistens things silently... Unfortunately, most people in the world do not value it instead."

Lin Yan originally thought Elder Mu En would continue asking something, but unexpectedly, the conversation suddenly shifted: "Child, this old man also watched your battle a few days ago."

"Although you did not use your Concept during the battle, I could sense its existence. Can you let this old man experience your Concept?"

Hearing this, Lin Yan sighed inwardly; as expected of Elder Mu En, his insight was terrifyingly formidable.

Thanks to the Comprehension Ability blessing of the Prajna Heart Lamp, comprehending a Concept naturally couldn't stump him.

However, Teacher Zhou Yi was too useless previously; using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken wasn't warranted, and she simply didn't deserve for him to mobilize his Concept.

Unexpectedly, even so, Elder Mu En still captured the clues and saw through it.

At the same time, Lin Yan understood in his heart that since Elder Mu En had specifically pointed this matter out, whether he could gain his recognition today depended entirely on this encounter.

Nodding slightly, a flash of nine-colored flowing light emerged in the depths of Lin Yan's eyes.

In an instant, the scorching Fire Intent burst forth, carrying the majestic might of burning everything to ashes, instantly filling the entire Sea God Pavilion hall!

Sensing Lin Yan's Concept, the smile on Elder Mu En's face grew even thicker.

The next instant, a brilliant golden light erupted from his aged body!
