Chapter 311
The First Dean, a Descendant of Yu Tianheng
"No outsiders are allowed to enter."
A guard blocked Lin Mu and his group from entering the academy.
Now, ten thousand years have passed, and even if Lin Mu did not deliberately change his appearance, few people would recognize him.
Therefore, Lin Mu was not angry at all, but instead said calmly, "I am a teacher at the academy."
"You're a teacher? Why have I never seen you before?" the guard asked with a suspicious look.
Although he had doubts about the person's identity, the person had an extraordinary demeanor and did not seem to be an ordinary Soul Master, so he dared not gamble on the possibility.
If the other party really is a teacher, then he, as a mere guard, cannot afford to offend him.
How do you prove your identity?
Seeing how dutiful the guard was, Lin Mu felt both gratified and helpless, and could only take out a token that he hadn't used in a long time.
It was the token that represented his status as dean ten thousand years ago.
However, ten thousand years have passed, and probably few people would recognize this token.
"This token"
After observing for a while, the guard still shook his head; he had never seen any teacher use this token.
Seeing this, Lin Mu frowned. He did not want to reveal his identity upon returning to the human world, or at least not let too many people know.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, a middle-aged man walked over, his eyes fixed on the token in Lin Mu's hand.
Perhaps realizing Lin Mu's identity, he could no longer contain his excitement.
However, when he was about to ask a question, he found that he could not speak at all, and then a voice entered his ears.
"Don't be too flamboyant."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man quickly composed himself and nodded slightly.
At this moment, the guard recognized the middle-aged man's identity and said respectfully, "Greetings, Speaker."
Lin Mu was not surprised by the middle-aged man's identity; someone who could recognize the token must be an important figure in the Elemental Academy.
As for the position of Grand Speaker, it was mainly a parliamentary institution established by Lin Mu at that time.
The college is ostensibly led by the dean, but in reality, it only manages trivial matters; the real decision-making power lies in the hands of numerous councilors.
The speaker has two votes, while members of parliament have only one vote.
"They are honored guests I invited. They may come and go from the academy at will, and no one may stop them," the middle-aged man said solemnly.
Since this person possesses the token of the first dean, it means that his identity must be extraordinary.
It's even possible that he is none other than Lin Mu, the legendary first dean who has already become a god. It would be extremely rare for a guard to be able to stop such a figure.
Of course, the fact that this gentleman didn't hold a grudge against a guard is even more commendable.
"Yes, Speaker," the guard replied hastily.
"Please come in, everyone!"
The middle-aged man tried his best to remain calm, but when faced with a legendary figure, he couldn't help but show a hint of heartfelt respect on his face.
Seeing the great figures from the Elemental Academy showing such respect to Lin Mu, Huo Yuhao's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
“Xiao Yuhao, this senior is very likely Lin Mu, who founded the Elemental Academy and the Wuji Sect ten thousand years ago. I just don’t understand why he came down here.”
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm had long since returned to Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea; it couldn't appear in this form casually.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm couldn't figure out Lin Mu's purpose in coming to the human world.
In his view, a legendary figure like Lin Mu had no need to linger on earthly matters.
However, the reality is quite the opposite. The realm of gods is far more monotonous than the human world. Many deities, such as the sea god, couldn't stand the loneliness and ran away after finding a successor. Compared to these deities, Lin Mu's situation is slightly better.
After all, he possesses the Asura Armor, so traveling back and forth between the human and mortal realms isn't difficult for him; the only challenge is obtaining the coordinates of places he hasn't been before.
"Lin Mu?!"
Upon hearing this name, Huo Yuhao was shaken, never expecting that this senior had such a distinguished background.
At the time, he even tried to fight back with a white tiger dagger, which now makes him extremely embarrassed.
“I heard my mother say that ten thousand years ago, the Dai family was still the royal family, but they were suppressed by Lin Mu and the Empress of the Tiandou Empire, and eventually became an ordinary noble class.”
Huo Yuhao said excitedly.
Seeing this, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm shook her head and said earnestly, "These things are not important. You only need to know one thing: if you want to become stronger, you must cling to this powerful figure."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao frowned; he disliked currying favor with the powerful.
Moreover, Lin Mu has already given him a chance and even sent him to the Elemental Academy. If he were to ask for anything else, it would be too much to ask for more.
after a while.
Led by the middle-aged man, the group toured most of the Elemental Academy before finally arriving at the core area.
After confirming that no one was around, the middle-aged man knelt down in front of Lin Mu.
"Junior Yu Xiaoting greets the First Dean."
Seeing this, Lin Mu calmly waved his hand, and an invisible force helped him up.
He could tell from the gate that the person's martial soul was the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.
If nothing unexpected happens, they should be the descendants of Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan left in the human world.
Ten thousand years ago, although Yu Tianheng's talent was greatly enhanced, it still took him several decades to cultivate to level ninety-nine.
Without divine intervention, this speed is already quite fast.
It wasn't until Lin Mu and the others entered the realm of gods that he received the divine test from the god of wrath, which took him several years to complete.
During this time, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan inevitably sparked some friction, but after Yu Tianheng became a god, he could only bring one person into the divine realm, so he had to leave his descendants in the mortal world.
Although Lin Mu could help, he was not a great philanthropist and would not send Yu Tianheng's entire family to the God Realm.
Of course, Yu Xiaoting could also be a descendant of Yu Tianxin.
Although Yu Tianxin's martial soul has not evolved, it is possible that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul has been enhanced after ten thousand years of evolution.
Dragon-type martial souls are not suitable as family-inherited martial souls, as this would lead to the bloodline becoming increasingly diluted.
"Your talent is quite good to have cultivated to level 99 within a hundred years."
Lin Mu offered a brief comment.
If this were ten thousand years ago, this talent would absolutely crush all other geniuses, even Qian Daoliu and Poseidon would have to be ranked behind.
"This is all thanks to the cultivation methods passed down by the Dean," Yu Xiaoting said respectfully.
Lin Mu did not refute this. Both the method of condensing the soul core and the meditation method he improved had indeed greatly enhanced the potential of soul masters.
Furthermore, with whale sharks becoming more common, many soul masters are now able to absorb soul rings beyond their level.
In addition, there is the alchemy technique passed down by Lin Mu, which is the key to increasing cultivation speed.
As the number one academy on the continent, the Elemental Academy possesses the most advanced medicinal herb cultivation technology and the most skilled alchemists, and has no shortage of elixirs for cultivation.
Although its quality is far inferior to the pills refined by Lin Mu, as long as it is not taken in excess, there will be basically no side effects. (End of this chapter)
