No one replied. Everyone was as silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to breathe heavily.
Seeing the crowd's silence, Meng Yun's anger flared even more. Just as he was about to curse and scold, he seemed to sense something, and his expression changed.
"You all go out first," Meng Yun said in a deep voice, taking a deep breath and adjusting his emotions.
Everyone looked at Meng Yun in surprise, not understanding why his mood had changed so quickly.
"Hurry up and get out," Meng Yun snapped.
"Yes," everyone quickly responded, relieved. They took two steps at once, quickly leaving the room.
Shortly after they left, a tall, red-haired woman walked in. The black uniform she wore accentuated her figure.
The woman walked into the Hall Master's office naturally and casually, showing no fear of Meng Yun inside.
"Greetings, Heavenly Phoenix Crown," Meng Yun stepped forward and bowed, his attitude respectful, completely lacking the dominance he had just shown.
The person who arrived was Leng Yaozhu, one of the Vice Tower Masters of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda, a Level 98 Super Douluo with the title Heavenly Phoenix.
"Hall Master Meng, there's no need for such courtesy," Leng Yaozhu said in a gentle voice, stopping a few meters in front of Meng Yun.
"I heard you discovered a genius with innate Level 20 Soul Power, and their Martial Soul is a phoenix?"
Meng Yun's heart tightened, and his expression was somewhat unnatural. He said, "Indeed, such a genius was discovered."
Leng Yaozhu noticed Meng Yun's expression and couldn't help but ask, "Is there something wrong with this child?"
"There's no problem," Meng Yun hesitated for a moment before speaking the truth. "It's just that we can't find this child now."
"The address he filled out when he awakened his Martial Soul was fake. I had someone follow him, but after following for half a day, we found that the child had already disappeared without a trace."
Meng Yun quickly added, cursing inwardly. This kid was too strange and cunning, actually guarding against them like this.
"Oh?" Leng Yaozhu frowned. She had come this time specifically for the child named Yun Ze.
Innate Level 20, Martial Soul Phoenix. This was simply the perfect candidate for a disciple in her heart. If she could take him under her wing, she would have no regrets.
"Have you sent people to search?" Leng Yaozhu asked.
"I've sent people to search diligently these past few days, but we've found nothing. Crown, you also know that Star Moon City has a population of nearly ten million. To find someone, the difficulty..." Meng Yun said with a helpless expression.
Leng Yaozhu also understood the difficulty of finding someone in a city with such a large population and didn't blame Meng Yun.
"Continue the search. I will also mobilize other branch towers to search together. We must find this child," Leng Yaozhu said.
Her Martial Soul was the Heavenly Phoenix, a branch of the phoenix. With her Level 98 Soul Power, she was definitely the best teacher for that child.
Conversely, that child would be the most suitable disciple for her, capable of perfectly inheriting her legacy.
She wouldn't easily miss such a rare disciple.
"Yes," Meng Yun replied, feeling relieved. Fortunately, the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo had come, who was relatively easy to talk to.
After carefully understanding Yun Ze's situation, Leng Yaozhu also inspected the situation of this Spirit Transfer branch tower. The results were quite satisfactory to her.
"It's not far from Mingdu here. Tomorrow, I'll go see that girl Nana. It's been a while, and I wonder how her cultivation is progressing."
Leng Yaozhu stood by the window of the room, admiring the night view. When she thought of her disciple, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
In Mingdu, Yun Ze, Gu Yue Na, and a few others presented the identity cards they had prepared long ago and entered this core city of the west.
Their identity cards were naturally forged. With their powerful strength as a deterrent and sufficient funds, obtaining a legal and reasonable identity card was not difficult.
Di Tian and Zi Ji had not yet left Star Moon City; they were helping the transformed Soul Beasts obtain identity cards.
As the seat of the Federation Government, Mingdu had always been the continent's political, technological, and commercial center.
After years of development, Mingdu had a permanent population exceeding thirty million. Skyscrapers were everywhere, traffic flowed like water on the ground, and the atmosphere was rich with technology.
Star Moon City was already prosperous enough, but compared to Mingdu, it was far inferior, with no comparison to be made.
The group had no intention of sightseeing in the city and went directly by car to the Sun Moon Royal Academy.
The Sun Moon Royal Academy did not have a conventional academy layout; instead, it was composed of three massive metal buildings.
The three main buildings, hundreds of meters high, were accompanied by numerous shorter buildings clustered together, forming a complex.
The academy occupied a vast area, which meant there were still many open spaces within the building complex, which had been constructed into battlefields and Soul Tool experimental grounds.
Yun Ze and the others got out of the car a few hundred meters from the academy and began to split up.
Bi Ji and the others went to scout the surrounding area and select suitable shops and buildings.
Meanwhile, Yun Ze and Gu Yue Na walked towards the Sun Moon Royal Academy. Yun Ze was going to register at the Sun Moon Royal Academy.
The two walked side by side into the building. As soon as they entered, a faint metallic scent drifted over, as if even the air here was metallic.
A slightly sharp sound rang out, and red lights illuminated on either side of the main entrance. Four tall men in gray uniforms immediately ran over.
"I forgot, entering the academy requires identity verification. Without verification, you'll be detected," Gu Yue Na said awkwardly.
The Sun Moon Royal Academy had no main gate and no fixed guards, but this did not mean their entrance could be entered casually.
There were identity recognition sensors on both sides of the entrance. If someone without verification was scanned, this kind of alarm would sound, and they would then have to face these four burly men.
In addition to these four Soul Master strongmen, Yun Ze also sensed other dangers. If his guess was correct, many hidden Soul Tools should now be aimed at him.
"Just explain it," Yun Ze said, showing no emotional fluctuation as he looked at the four burly men who were displaying hostility.
"Come with us," one of the burly men said in a deep voice as the four surrounded Yun Ze.
They would carefully question anyone who trespassed into the academy, ascertain their intentions, and decide how to handle the situation based on the circumstances.
When dealing with the situation, they would certainly not do so at the main entrance, as it would have a bad impact. They would take them to a special room.
"You explain it," Yun Ze said to Gu Yue Na beside him. Whatever he said, it might not be as useful as a single sentence from Gu Yue Na.
Identity determined the right to speak. He currently had no identity and was in the body of a six-year-old child, so the weight of his words was naturally low.
"Okay," Gu Yue Na nodded and showed her identity card to the four burly men.
Her identity card was somewhat special; the name on it was stamped with a golden seal, which was the unique seal of the academy's dean.
Seeing this seal, the four burly men's expressions changed, and they immediately bowed in respect.
"He is my friend. I am taking him to see the dean now," Gu Yue Na said concisely.
Hearing this, the four burly men exchanged glances and immediately made way. Since Gu Yue Na had said so, they naturally did not dare to obstruct further. At the same time, they took out something resembling a remote control and pressed the green button on it.
As the green button was pressed, the Soul Tools aimed at Yun Ze retracted, and Yun Ze's identity was temporarily deemed compliant.
Please collect, please recommend votes. Signing has already begun, so everyone can watch with confidence; it will not be unfinished.
