The Seagod's Pavilion hall was currently filled with people.
The vast majority of them were old men and women who appeared to be in their sixties, sitting relaxed in their seats and chatting with those around them.
But if anyone truly believed they posed no threat, that person would either be foolish or idiotic.
These elders were precisely the Seagod's Pavilion Elders. Aside from a very few intellectuals, they were almost all Title Douluo level existences. Any one of them, if taken outside, would be a significant figure capable of influencing the continent's situation.
And because all the Seagod's Pavilion Elders came from Shrek Academy, their average cultivation level was also the highest on the entire continent.
Within the Seagod's Pavilion, which had a total of less than twenty people, there were actually ten powerhouses at the Super Douluo level. This proportion of Super Douluo was something other organizations could only dream of.
At this moment, they were gathered together, preparing to attend an event called the Seagod's Pavilion Meeting.
The Seagod's Pavilion Meeting, as the name suggested, was a meeting attended by all members of the Seagod's Pavilion.
Historically, every time a Seagod's Pavilion Meeting was held, it could influence the future direction of the continent to varying degrees.
Among these, the number of Seagod's Pavilion Meetings hosted and conducted by the Soul Tool Department was few and far between.
It was also for this reason that the Seagod's Pavilion Elders' expressions were more or less curious at this moment. Before coming, they had not received notice about the content of the meeting called by the two deans of the Soul Tool Department. They all wanted to know what Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo wanted to do by calling everyone here this time.
Soon, the hall doors opened, and Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo were led in by an old woman.
This old woman was precisely Xian Lin'er's mother, the ninety-seventh ranked agility-attack type Super Douluo, Elder Song, and also the third person in the Seagod's Pavilion.
Xian Lin'er met the scrutinizing gazes of the elders, walked to the conference table with her head held high, gave a slight bow to the elders present, and then bowed deeply to the elder sitting in the innermost position, respectfully saying:
"Elder Mu, I am ready."
It could be seen that Xian Lin'er's attitude towards the other elders was completely different from her attitude towards this elder.
Because this elder was precisely the current head of the Seagod's Pavilion, the only known Limit Douluo on the entire continent, the true decision-maker of Shrek Academy, the Dragon God Douluo, Mu En.
And most importantly, while the other elders discriminated against and even suppressed the Soul Tool Department, it was Mu En who single-handedly bore the majority of the pressure for them and helped them develop.
His kindness was worth the two deans, Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo, repaying with their lives.
Mu En narrowed his eyes and nodded gently towards her.
"Then let's begin. This meeting was initiated by your Soul Tool Department, so you and Duoduo will preside over it."
"Yes."
Xian Lin'er nodded respectfully, then took out a few pieces of paper from her storage soul tool, which Qian Duoduo distributed to the elders present.
The elders took them one after another, glanced through them, and their expressions were all surprised.
What was recorded on the paper was actually the information of a first-year new student.
Did the Soul Tool Department actually convene a Seagod's Pavilion Meeting specifically for a first-year new student?
Seeing that she had successfully piqued their curiosity, Xian Lin'er spoke:
"I believe everyone is very curious to know what is so special about this new student named Huo Yuhao that he could become the core of this Seagod's Pavilion Meeting. Before explaining his situation, please allow me to ask, do the esteemed elders still remember the Ultimate Individual Soldier Plan we proposed before?"
The elders nodded one after another.
The Ultimate Individual Soldier Plan was also a proposal passed in a recent Seagod's Pavilion Meeting. Naturally, they wouldn't forget it so quickly.
Qian Duoduo took over the conversation.
"And this first-year new student is the person we believe is most suitable for the Ultimate Individual Soldier Plan. We believe it is time to officially launch the plan."
"Old Qian, aren't you being too hasty?"
A handsome middle-aged man said with a frown:
"He's only in his first year, having just entered the academy a month ago. As far as I know, he's not one of the three Soul Venerates among this year's new students. Letting a Great Soul Master undertake the plan is perhaps too rushed."
He was precisely Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department.
In terms of combat power, he was the strongest among Shrek Academy's four deans, and also a direct disciple of Mu En. He was now a powerhouse at the Super Douluo level.
As soon as she faced him, Xian Lin'er's tone immediately became impolite.
"Not rushed at all! Although Huo Yuhao's cultivation is currently only at level twenty-one, do you know what level his soul tool master rank is?"
"Second rank?"
Yan Shaozhe's expression immediately turned serious.
Shrek's Soul Tool Department students generally had to be in their third or fourth year to become a second-rank soul tool master. If this child was a second-rank soul tool master upon entering the academy, then it would indeed be worth paying attention to.
However, Xian Lin'er merely sneered.
"Second-rank soul tool master? Yan Shaozhe, your imagination is truly lacking. He is a third-rank soul tool master!"
"What?!"
With a "bang," Yan Shaozhe stood up directly.
There were also a few other elders who had some research into soul tools and had similar reactions.
Even He Caitou, who previously broke Shrek Academy's record, only became a third-rank soul tool master at the age of thirteen, and that was the result of receiving Fan Yu's education from a young age. Can an eleven-year-old child really have the level of a third-rank soul tool master? Is this not a joke?
However, Yan Shaozhe quickly calmed down. He sat back down and asked curiously:
"Isn't his cultivation only at the Great Soul Master level right now? How did he manage to become a third-rank soul tool master?"
Xian Lin'er said coldly;
"That is due to your lack of knowledge. It is not impossible for a soul tool master's rank to be higher than their cultivation level. Many geniuses in the Sun Moon Empire can achieve such a thing; it's just that our original Douluo Three Kingdoms lack that level of education."
"I see."
Every word in Xian Lin'er's speech carried barbs, but Yan Shaozhe showed no sign of anger. He nodded in understanding and said no more.
Huo Yuhao's talent in the field of soul tools indeed exceeded his imagination, but after a brief thought, he lost interest in Huo Yuhao.
He was merely an eleven-year-old Great Soul Master. While his performance was indeed among the top of the new students, it was nothing extraordinary; there were dozens of such students among Shrek Academy's new students every year.
A talent like him would be wasted in the Martial Soul Department anyway. Giving him to the Soul Tool Department was fine. There was no need to argue with Xian Lin'er over a student of his level.
An elder sitting beside Mu En asked:
"So, when do you plan to officially start the Ultimate Individual Soldier Plan?"
Xian Lin'er said firmly:
"The sooner the better! We plan to officially begin implementing the plan once he possesses the knowledge reserves of a fourth-rank soul tool master. According to Fan Yu's calculations, Huo Yuhao should reach this level not long after the new student assessment concludes."
