Chapter 22 - Evil Fire Eruption

Oscar and Aos Qin opened the door to their dormitory. Before they even stepped inside, they were choked by the dust that had accumulated for six weeks. Cohen, with his keen sense of smell, even let out a "whimper."

There was no other choice — Aos Qin and Oscar could only take out their Soul Guidance mask and helmet, connect them together, and use the internal breathing function to isolate the outside air. Only then did they enter the dorm and take out a vacuum-type Soul Guidance Device to begin cleaning. It took a full twenty minutes for the two of them to tidy up the six-square-meter room.

After spending another ten-plus minutes placing their daily-use items, they were about to go find their teachers when suddenly, from the dorm next door, an extremely unstable Soul Power fluctuation erupted, releasing shockwaves indiscriminately.

Within those surging waves of Soul Power, one could clearly sense a violent fire-attribute force mixed inside. Caught off guard, Aos Qin and Oscar felt a tightness in their chests. They quickly circulated their Soul Power to feel a bit more comfortable.

"This is something a Soul Scholar's meditation can cause?" Oscar was still dazed and didn't understand what was happening. But Aos Qin could already confirm that the person next door was definitely in a dangerous state right now. If he guessed correctly, this should be Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire eruption.

Without hesitating, Aos Qin pulled Oscar and ran outside, while also ordering Cohen to quickly go find Teacher Shao Xin and Dean Flander. By the time Oscar and Aos Qin rushed out of the dorm, Cohen had already disappeared from sight.

Outside, they could clearly see violent red fire-attribute Soul Power constantly erupting from the dorm next door. If one didn't look closely, one might think the room was on fire.

At this moment, Oscar also reacted. But with their current strength, they couldn't help even if they wanted to.

Fortunately, Cohen's speed was reliable. Less than thirty seconds after they rushed out, Flander arrived, spreading his wings and flying straight into the room without saying a word. Another thirty seconds later, Cohen returned, along with Shao Xin, whose Soul Guidance accelerator was glowing.

Knowing Flander was already inside, Shao Xin did not rush in. Instead, he prepared recovery candy beans and held them in his hand. Then he said to Oscar and Aos Qin:

"You two should also make that Fusion Sausage formed by your Martial Soul fusion skill. We'll need it later."

With the incantation — "Restore completely, Cheese-Stretching Beef Big Sausage!" — a steaming large sausage appeared.

Only then did Shao Xin speak again:

"The kid inside will be your classmate for the next few years. He is six years old this year and just awakened his Martial Soul. Dean Flander brought him back. His Martial Soul is a mutated fire phoenix, and he has innate Soul Power of rank nine — quite a gifted one.

Unfortunately, the mutation of his Martial Soul was not fully successful. While this phoenix Martial Soul grants him strong fire-attribute power, it will also occasionally backlash against his body.

Flander calls it the Evil Fire Eruption. Right now is likely that situation. When handling this, Flander must first use his Soul Power to protect the little fat one's body, then guide the Evil Fire out.

But this only treats the symptoms, not the cause. As long as the little fatty continues to cultivate, the Evil Fire will keep accumulating and erupting. Unless his Martial Soul evolves completely, he will always be tormented by it.

Oh, right, that little fatty is named Ma Hongjun, and he has already been accepted as Flander's disciple. You two reached level twenty already, right? Work hard and don't embarrass me.

Also, Cohen should have evolved into a hundred-year Soul Beast, right? This little guy really is smart. When he came to get me earlier, I didn't react in time, so he used a Soul Skill to knock the door and draw me out.

If I'm not wrong, the new Soul Skill Cohen gained after evolving is Wind Element Control. That skill is very practical. With Cohen's intelligence, once its control ability improves, it can develop many extended Soul Skills. Really impressive. Treat it well. Even if Cohen's evolution speed can't keep up with you two in the future, it will still be a great helper."

Perhaps understanding he was being praised, Cohen immediately rubbed himself against Aos Qin, asking for praise and pats.

Faced with this, Aos Qin could only "reluctantly" enjoy the pleasure of petting a big dog.

"Teacher, of course we broke through level twenty. And during this vacation, we also made two great things. Later, when junior brother is fine, we'll show them to you."

Aos Qin, busy petting the dog, only nodded to show agreement, but Oscar spoke directly. After boasting about their vacation achievements, he also complained,

"Speaking of Cohen, I'm annoyed. I treat him well too, but he only sticks to Aos Qin. He treats me like a substitute. Every time I ask him to help me with something, he waits until Aos Qin agrees before helping."

Hearing this, Aos Qin didn't stay silent. He immediately countered,

"That's because I treat Cohen better. Besides, the first person Cohen saw when opening his eyes was me, and the collar on his neck is a Storage Soul Guidance Device I specially made. Look how smoothly he uses it."

Oscar was left speechless — it was true, so he couldn't refute it.

Watching the two brothers bicker, Shao Xin relaxed and smiled. On the path of Soul Master cultivation, having a companion with such tacit understanding truly added a lot of joy.

However, after retorting Oscar, Aos Qin was not in a good mood. Mentioning Storage Soul Guidance Devices made him feel as if he had lost hundreds of millions of Gold Soul Coins — the pain was real.

During vacation, he suddenly found the storage belt he bought two years ago in the market — with marrow jade as the core formation and a titanium shell.

Back then, the belt's damaged inner shell was made of Mithril, and since he couldn't afford Mithril, he put it away and forgot about it.

Now that he found it again, with time available, he naturally wanted to repair it.

So, Aos Qin used the Omnipotent Library to scan the belt inch by inch, matched it to various Storage Soul Guidance Device blueprints, and restored its original blueprint and repair method.

But after carefully reading them, Aos Qin became depressed.

Because according to the blueprint, the belt was a grade-nine Storage Soul Guidance Device — and the storage space still hadn't collapsed.

In other words: if he repaired the inner shell, he could retrieve the items stored inside a grade-nine Soul Guidance Device. A treasure trove waiting inside!

But the problem was exactly that — it was grade nine. Aos Qin was only a single-ring Soul Master, a second-grade Soul Engineer. Even after becoming a two-ring Grand Soul Master, he still couldn't repair it.

Not only him — even the academy teachers couldn't. They were mostly half-way learned Soul Guidance crafters, relying on high Soul Power to force-create high-level devices, not on technical mastery.

Facing a treasure mountain one could only look at but not touch — this pain was enough to break a man.

Thinking of this "heartache," Aos Qin hugged Cohen tightly. Only Cohen's warm soft fur could heal his "wounded heart."

Putting aside Aos Qin's sorrow, Shao Xin sensed the Soul Power inside the room gradually calming down. Knowing the situation was under control, he shifted attention to Oscar's earlier bragging.

Oscar's tone clearly revealed pride, making Shao Xin curious what these two had created while cultivating. But no matter how he asked, they refused to reveal it, insisting on waiting until Flander came out and all teachers gathered.

This only made Shao Xin more interested. "You two better be sure. If you make the teachers come only to show something average — I don't know about others, but your Teacher Zhao definitely won't let you off."

That sentence made the brothers recall Zhao Wuji's special training and caused them to shiver. But soon they recovered — this time their work would not disappoint.

Thus, Cohen was again sent to call the other teachers, this time carrying a note written by Shao Xin. Since it wasn't urgent, using a Soul Skill to smash doors again would be bad.

Seeing this troublesome communication method, Aos Qin felt it was time to create communication Soul Guidance Devices. Relying on running messages was too inefficient. Even if satellites couldn't be launched, making a walkie-talkie was fine.

After about twenty minutes, all teachers arrived. Only then did Flander open the door, followed by a pale, exhausted little fatty behind him. Seeing the sweat still on Flander's forehead, one could tell the process was not easy.

Although surprised that all teachers had gathered, Flander did not ask — if there was something important, they would speak. Since they were only standing and not panicked, it wasn't urgent.

Flander took the candy beans from Shao Xin and the arm-thick sausage from Oscar and gave them to the little fatty behind him.

One could see the little fatty's complexion stop being pale after eating the candy bean. He no longer looked like he couldn't stand. After eating the sausage, his complexion gradually turned rosy. A powerful food-type Soul Master's recovery ability truly did not lose to specialized healing Soul Masters.
