Soul Land: Bibi Dong Is My Martial Soul

Chapter 41: A Soul Master Who Doesn’t Cause Trouble Isn’t a Good Soul Master

Yu Xiaogang was astonished and finally understood why Su Mo’s cultivation speed was so fast.

He couldn’t help but feel a tinge of regret. If he had accepted Su Mo's offer earlier, he could have studied the cultivation of someone with such a naturally strong physique.

“He’s not just fast. You don’t know how clever this kid is…” Flender, seeing Yu Xiaogang already surprised, laughed heartily and continued telling him about Su Mo’s Soul Tool Integration, where he merged his martial soul with his weapon. He even mentioned Su Mo’s victory over the level 37 Dai Mubai.

“Soul Tool Integration…” Yu Xiaogang was once again shocked by Flender’s revelation, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

“This discovery is extraordinary!”

“The emergence of this theory will undoubtedly change the landscape of the Soul Master world. It can provide a significant boost to soul masters with weapon-type martial souls, making them far stronger than beast martial soul masters of the same level!”

While Yu Xiaogang marveled at Su Mo’s Soul Tool Integration concept, he quickly realized its potential impact on the world of soul masters.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became—this was a revelation that could revolutionize the field.

Yu Xiaogang, who loved researching and gathering various theories and knowledge, was thrilled by Su Mo’s theory and was eager to refine it further.

Once perfected, he could have Tang San integrate his Clear Sky Hammer with a soul tool.

And someday, if the opportunity arose, he could even publish it and further prove his own theories.

...

Unbeknownst to Su Mo’s group, Yu Xiaogang arrived at Shrek Academy shortly after they left.

After a day of travel, Su Mo and the others found a small town to stay in before nightfall.

The group of eight students quickly found an inn and ordered a meal to fill their hungry stomachs.

Since the students were covering their own expenses, Zhao Wuji, not wanting to take advantage of them, chose not to join.

However, the atmosphere at the table wasn’t particularly pleasant.

Or rather, it had been this way since they set out on their journey.

Zhu Zhuqing remained silent, her face cold, not speaking to anyone.

Ning Rongrong only spoke with Su Mo.

Fortunately, Ma Hongjun was there to lighten the mood with his jokes, preventing the situation from becoming too awkward.

At that moment, a loud and ostentatious group entered the restaurant, shoving aside anyone in their way. The restaurant owner rushed to greet them, bowing and scraping as they approached.

“Who are these people? Acting so arrogant?” Ning Rongrong muttered to Su Mo in a low voice.

“Judging by their uniforms, they’re from Canghui Academy,” Su Mo replied after taking a glance.

The scene unfolding was one Su Mo vividly remembered. He recognized them not because of his exceptional memory, but because their uniforms bore the emblem of Canghui Academy.

“Yep, it’s Canghui Academy. Boss Dai, check out that pretty girl over there!” Ma Hongjun added, taking over from Su Mo and shamelessly eyeing the only female student in the opposing group, clicking his tongue in appreciation.

Due to his martial soul’s flaw, Ma Hongjun was naturally lustful. He didn't dare look too closely at the Shrek girls, but now that he spotted a beauty, he couldn't help but ogle her openly.

“A small-time Canghui Academy acting all high and mighty, what a joke!” Dai Mubai snorted, though he avoided commenting on other girls in front of Zhu Zhuqing. Instead, he ridiculed the group from across the room.

Neither Ma Hongjun nor Dai Mubai bothered to lower their voices, so the group from Canghui Academy naturally heard them. Their faces immediately filled with anger.

“Haha, exactly! Canghui Academy? What a joke!” Ma Hongjun chimed in, knowing that Dai Mubai was deliberately looking for trouble and quickly backing him up with more mockery.

“Damn it!”

The students from Canghui Academy were even angrier, and one of them stood up, but their teacher quickly stopped him.

Oscar, sitting next to Tang San, chuckled softly, “Looks like something fun is about to happen.”

“Fun? What kind of fun?” Tang San glanced at Oscar curiously.

Oscar whispered to Su Mo and the others, “This is also part of our training. Dean Flender always says, ‘A soul master who doesn’t cause trouble isn’t a good soul master.’ As the saying goes, avoiding trouble makes you a mediocrity.”

Tang San couldn’t help but laugh, “If we put together all the sayings of our dean, we’d have quite the monster manual.”

Hearing Oscar and Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong all felt a sense of pride and smiled.

“Shrek Academy is the best, right Su Mo?” Ning Rongrong, feeling excited by the dean’s saying, couldn’t help but share her enthusiasm with Su Mo.

“That saying isn’t entirely correct,” Su Mo replied.

However, Su Mo shook his head, not agreeing with the so-called dean’s maxim.

“Huh? Why?” Ning Rongrong looked at Su Mo in surprise.

“It depends on what we’re facing. If it's something like teaching Canghui Academy a lesson, that's fine—they were indeed being arrogant and pushing people around. But causing trouble for the sake of it is wrong! The dean’s saying should be changed to ‘If you see injustice, draw your sword to help!’”

Su Mo had always wanted to criticize this saying from Flender, and now he couldn’t hold back any longer, sharing his thoughts.

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Ning Rongrong and Tang San were taken aback. After thinking about it, they realized Su Mo had a point, but something still seemed off.

“That’s true, but changing it like that loses its boldness. The original saying is more domineering—‘I’ll do whatever I want!’” Ma Hongjun commented with a bit of disagreement.

As Ma Hongjun spoke, Dai Mubai and the others began to understand that Su Mo’s suggestion was more conditional, not as free-spirited.

For a moment, everyone had their own opinions.

“I think Su Mo’s version is better. ‘If you see injustice, draw your sword to help’ sounds more righteous!” Ning Rongrong firmly supported Su Mo.

She truly believed that, and her bright eyes sparkled as she looked at him.

While everyone else was fired up by Flender’s bold maxim, only Su Mo had the calmness to point out its flaw. Ning Rongrong couldn’t help but admire how sharp he was for noticing the issue.

Before anyone could say more, one of the Canghui Academy students walked over toward them.

It seemed accidental, but as he passed, he bumped into a waiter carrying a tray, sending the dishes flying toward Su Mo’s table.

“Controlling Crane, Capturing Dragon!”

Seeing the tray about to crash onto the table, Tang San swiftly acted, catching the dishes with perfect precision.

“Be careful now. Wasting food is a bad thing,” Tang San said with a sneer, though his gaze was fixed on the Canghui Academy student.

“Yes, thank you, sir!” The waiter quickly took the tray from Tang San and hurried away, bowing repeatedly.

“Hmph!”
The Canghui Academy student, his plan foiled, could only snort and continue walking as if he no longer intended to do anything.

However, as he passed by Dai Mubai, he lashed out with his right foot, aiming to break one of the chair legs beneath Dai Mubai.

Crack!

“Ah…”

But Dai Mubai had anticipated this. He extended his leg, blocking the attack and crushing the student’s foot with a swift step, causing the student to scream in pain.

“Hmph! I knew you lot couldn’t be trusted!” Dai Mubai stood up and sneered, before delivering a forceful kick, sending the student flying back.

“Oh no, let’s get out of here!”

“Run, run!”
The other customers in the restaurant, witnessing the scene, hurriedly fled the premises.

“You… How dare you!”

At that moment, the group of Canghui Academy students and their teacher all stood up, their faces filled with rage.
