Chapter 39 The Power Belonging to Huo Yutong
Biji spoke softly, "Ditian, if that's truly the case, the alliance with the far north needs to be reconsidered. The most urgent matter is to ascertain the Snow Emperor's whereabouts."
Zi Ji nodded in agreement, "That's right. The premise of an alliance is that each party has a stable core."
Di Tiandao said, "Ice Emperor, this matter is of great importance. Was there anything unusual about the Snow Emperor before she disappeared? Were there no clues at all?"
Hyotei shook his head: "Without warning, without leaving any clues, she just vanished into thin air, as if... evaporated into thin air."
Di Tian took a deep breath and looked at his companions again: "The plan remains unchanged. The Beast Alliance still needs to move forward. The variables in the far north remind us that the road to the alliance will never be smooth sailing. But precisely because of this, we need to unite all forces that can be united."
Then he changed the subject: "The Snow Emperor's disappearance and the unknown situation in the far north remind us that we must not place all our hopes on the alliance within the soul beasts."
We need more eyes and ears, especially... in the human world.
Huo Yutong seemed to understand something and sat up straight: "Senior Di Tian, what do you mean?"
"Soul technology is the culmination of Electrolux's hard work and a bridge for peaceful coexistence between humans and soul beasts in the future."
But it cannot be solely in your hands, or rather, it cannot be kept only as a secret weapon of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Di Tian slowly explained his idea: "We need to spread it in the human world in a reasonable way."
This will not only reduce future Soul Masters' reliance on Soul Rings, but also provide an opportunity to establish our own power, rooted in the human world.
"Belongs to...our forces?" Huo Yutong blinked her bright eyes, somewhat incredulous.
"That's right." Di Tian said with certainty, "The core of this force on the surface is you, Huo Yutong, the genius soul master of Shrek Academy and the successor of Electrolux."
Its purpose is to research and promote soul technology, attracting human soul masters and scholars who have goodwill towards soul beasts and are eager to explore new paths.
At this moment, Brigitte interjected, "And secretly, this force will become our hub for understanding the trends of the human world, making connections with various forces, and even... gathering important information such as that of the Snow Emperor."
"Yutong, the friends you made at the academy, such as the Tang Clan behind Tang Ya and Xiao Xiao's family, are excellent starting points."
Zi Ji also said, "When dealing with humans, we can't rely on Yu Tong alone."
Since Sister Brigitte and I have already been appointed as teachers at Shrek Academy, it's natural that we would take care of the secret communication and paving the way.
I want to see which human forces are worth cooperating with, and which... harbor malicious intentions.
Di Tian glanced approvingly at his two companions; this was exactly his overall plan.
He looked at Huo Yutong, his eyes filled with trust and expectation: "Yutong, you don't need to do too much right away."
Your most important task at present is still to learn and grow, solidify your position in Shrek Academy, and let the "Soul Spirit" technique begin to show its power in your hands.
As you build your power, Princess Brigitte and Princess Murasaki will assist you step by step.
This force will be your strongest backing in the human world in the future, and also the bridge connecting the two worlds.
As Huo Yutong listened to the intricately linked plan, a sudden realization dawned on her.
It turns out that Senior Di Tian had already thought things through carefully and incorporated everything she did at the academy into a grand plan.
She nodded vigorously, her eyes shining with determination: "I understand! I will try my best!"
Di Qiu, listening from the side, was extremely excited: "Yu Tong, once you've built up your power, I want to go play too! I can help you scare those disobedient ones!"
Tianmeng believes that at this historic moment, there must be a resounding name worthy of its great significance.
She cleared her throat:
"Ahem! Since we're going to establish a great organization destined to change the world and resound throughout the universe, then a name that exudes dominance and awes all is of paramount importance!"
Tianmeng began to recount her "masterpiece" that she had been holding back for so long, as if it were a treasure:
"Listen up! Take, for example—'Rise of Soul Beasts: I Build a Base in the Human World'! How about that? Isn't it intuitive and powerful?"
The temperature around Hyotei plummeted.
Unaware of anything amiss, Tianmeng continued passionately: "Or something even grander—'The Covenant of Beasts: Starting with Soul Technology'!"
And this one, I think it's the most epic—"The Vow Under the Stars, the Soul Lives Forever"!
At the very least, it could be called "Huo Yutong and Her Soul Beast Friends: The Great Achievements of Soul Spirits"...
With each name she uttered, Biji's lips twitched slightly, while Ziji simply facepalmed, looking utterly unable to bear the sight. Di Tian, however, maintained a blank expression.
Even Di Qiu wrinkled her nose and whispered, "Yu Tong, Tian Meng's name is so strange..."
"...That's just Tianmeng's style," Yutong replied with a look of familiarity.
The King of Ten Thousand Demons remained silent, as if expressing his silent disdain.
Xiong Jun muttered, "Why does this sound so awkward? It's not as powerful as when I, Old Xiong, shout."
The Red King, standing to the side, snorted and exhaled two puffs of hot air from his nostrils. His three heads muttered in low voices, "Too long, too convoluted, can't remember."
"Tenmaku!" Hyotei finally lost his temper.
"Are you giving these names because you're afraid humans won't know that we soul beasts are the ones in charge behind the scenes?"
Or do you think our future power is just a storytelling troupe for casual conversation?
Tianmeng immediately wilted and whispered in defense, "I... I think it's quite unique, you can't forget it once you hear it..."
Just then, Electrolux, who had been silently observing, spoke up: "A name should point directly to the core, containing the fundamental meaning of its existence and infinite possibilities."
The foundation of this force lies in the art of "Soul Spirits," whose core mission is "transmission"—transmitting the intelligence and power of Soul Beasts, and also conveying the hope for peaceful coexistence between humans and Soul Beasts.
This is not a transaction that can be completed overnight, but rather, like a lighthouse, it guides the way, passes on the torch, and builds a bridge connecting two worlds.
Therefore, I believe it would be better to call it the "Spirit Transmission Tower."
"The Spirit Pagoda..."
These three words seemed to possess a strange magic, resonating in the hearts of everyone and every soul beast.
Huo Yutong's eyes lit up: "Passing on the soul, inheriting hope... Teacher, this name is wonderful!"
Di Tian also said, "'Spirit Transmission Tower'... Excellent! It suits my taste perfectly."
Electrox said, "Then it's settled."
From this day forward, the Spirit Pagoda will be the foundation upon which Yu Tong stands in the human world, and a symbol of our connection between the two worlds, as we create the future.
