Chapter 562 Return and a New Beginning

After Chu Tian and his companions and the spirit masters of the Xingmang clan returned from the mysterious island, the martial spirit world seemed to have ushered in a new dawn. Their deeds spread quickly throughout the martial spirit world like a spring breeze, becoming a legend among people.

As soon as they returned to the mainland, they were warmly welcomed by soul masters and people from all over the country. Every time they arrived in a town, a large number of people would gather on both sides of the road, cheering and applauding one after another.

"Look, Chu Tian and the others are back! They are the heroes who saved the 'Soul Source Heart'!" A little child pointed at Chu Tian and the others excitedly, his eyes full of admiration.

Chu Tian scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Hey, everyone is too enthusiastic."

Zhang Meng smiled carelessly and waved to the crowd: "Haha, we are not that great."

Ye Li smiled and said to the people around her: "This is a joint effort of everyone. We just did what we should do."

They first returned to the Cangyun Sect, where everyone was jubilant. Elder Xuanfeng personally led the disciples to greet them at the sect gate, with a pleased smile on his face.

"Welcome back, you have made great contributions to the Wuhun World." Elder Xuanfeng said.

Qin Feng responded respectfully: "Elder, thanks to the help of friends from all sides along the way, we were able to successfully protect the 'Heart of Soul Source'."

Xiaohua held Xiaobai in her arms and ran around the sect happily: "The Cangyun Sect is still the most friendly. I miss you all so much."

After resting for a few days in the Cang Yun Sect, Chu Tian and others did not indulge in glory. They knew very well that although the Wuhun World had temporarily resolved the crisis of the "Soul Source Heart" being seized by evil forces, there were still many things to do.

"We can't just relax like this. There are still many places in the Wuhun World that need us to protect." Chu Tian said seriously while sitting in the meeting hall of the Cangyun Sect.

Qin Feng nodded in agreement: "That's right, we have to start thinking about how to improve the defense capabilities of the entire Wuhun world to prevent similar dark forces from rising again."

Ye Li put forward her own idea: "I think we can start by training more outstanding spirit masters. Many young spirit masters now lack proper guidance and systematic training. If we can establish some spirit master academies or training camps to teach them the knowledge of spirit power cultivation and combat skills, it will greatly enhance the strength of the spirit world."

This proposal was recognized by everyone, and the leader of the Xingmang tribe also agreed: "This is a very good idea. We can also send some experienced soul masters to assist in teaching and share our unique soul power cultivation method."

Therefore, they began to prepare for the establishment of the Soul Master Academy. The work of selecting a site, planning courses, recruiting teachers, etc. was proceeding in an orderly manner.

However, things did not go so smoothly. They encountered some troubles in finding a suitable location for building the school.

There was a place that was originally an abandoned valley. The land was fertile and the surrounding environment was suitable for cultivation, but a small force in the local area claimed that the land belonged to them and was unwilling to give it up.

The leader of this small force is a soul master named Wang Ba. He is big and strong, and has a very domineering personality.

"This land belongs to us. No matter what great plans you have, don't even think about taking it!" Wang Ba said arrogantly with his arms folded across his chest.

Zhang Meng frowned and said angrily: "You are being unreasonable. This land is clearly unowned. We want to build a soul master academy here for the benefit of the entire spirit world."

Wang Ba sneered: "I don't care about the interests of the martial arts world. In my eyes, this is my territory. Unless you can come up with something that satisfies me in exchange."

Chu Tian sighed helplessly: "What do you want?"

Wang Ba's eyes lit up: "I heard that you brought back a lot of good things from the mysterious island. I want your treasures that can enhance soul power."

When everyone heard this, they all thought that this request was too much. Those things brought back from the mysterious island were all important items related to the "Soul Origin Heart", how could they be easily handed over to him?

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, a young soul master came over from the side. This soul master looked very thin, but his eyes revealed a firmness.

"Wang Ba, it is wrong for you to do this. These heroes have paid so much for the world of martial arts, but you are here to embarrass them." said the young spirit master.

Wang Ba glared at him and said, "You little brat, you have nothing to do here, get out of here!"

The young soul master did not back down: "I will not leave. If you insist on having this land, I can give you a small piece of my territory. Although it is not big, it can be used as a makeshift."

Chu Tian and others looked at the young soul master in surprise: "Why do you want to help us?"

The young soul master smiled and said, "Because I want to be a hero like you and contribute to the world of martial spirits. Moreover, I believe that your establishment of the Soul Master Academy is a very great thing."

The young soul master's name was Li Xuan. Although his territory was not large, it was in a good location. Chu Tian and others gratefully accepted his kindness.

After Li Xuan's territory began to build the Soul Master Academy, more and more soul masters and people were moved by their actions and came to help. Some provided construction materials, and some contributed their soul power to help carry heavy objects.

As the Soul Master Academy gradually took shape, curriculum setting also became an important issue.

"We will not only teach the basic methods of soul power cultivation, but also set up some courses on the history of the martial soul world, soul beast knowledge, and moral education." Ye Li said seriously.

Qin Feng added: "Yes, an excellent soul master must not only have strong strength, but also good character and broad knowledge."

The soul masters of the Xingmang tribe also brought their tribe’s unique course content, such as the history and culture of the Xingmang tribe, as well as some special soul power skill training.

With everyone's joint efforts, the Soul Master Academy was finally built. The opening ceremony of the academy was very grand, with soul masters and important figures from all over the country coming to attend.

"Today, our Soul Master Academy is officially established! This is a new beginning. We hope to cultivate more outstanding soul masters here to protect our soul world!" Chu Tian announced excitedly at the ceremony.

With the opening of the academy, young soul masters from all over the country flocked to the academy. With their visions of the future and dreams of becoming powerful soul masters, they began their study life in the academy.

Chu Tian and others, as well as the soul masters of the Xingmang clan, also became teachers at the academy, personally teaching these young soul masters.

During the teaching process, many interesting things happened.

Once, when Zhang Meng was teaching a strength-based soul power training course, in order to let students better understand how to combine strength and soul power, he demonstrated it himself. As a result, he used too much force and blasted the boulder used for training into powder. The dust raised made the whole classroom gray.

"Haha, Teacher Zhang, you are so awesome!" the students said while coughing and laughing.

When Ye Li was teaching ice attribute spirit power skills, there was a student who always had trouble mastering the release of cold air. Ye Li patiently explained and demonstrated again and again, and finally the student successfully released a beautiful ice spike and danced with joy.

Qin Feng's sword skills course is always the most popular among male students. He holds the Dragon Shadow Sword and his sword moves are sharp. Every movement is like an artistic performance, which makes the students fascinated.

Although Xiaohua is young, her cooperation with Xiaobai has opened the eyes of the students. She teaches the students how to establish telepathy with their soul beasts and improve their tacit understanding in battle.

The soul masters of the Xingmang tribe brought a brand new soul power training experience. Their starlight soul power training method allowed students to feel the charm of soul powers of different attributes.

However, the peaceful days did not last long.

One day, a mysterious visitor suddenly came to the college. The visitor was covered in a black cloak and his face could not be seen. He went straight to Chu Tian and others and said that he had something important to discuss with them alone.

"Do you think you can sit back and relax after establishing this Soul Master Academy? You are too naive." The mysterious visitor's voice was low and hoarse.

Chu Tian frowned: "Who are you? What do you mean?"

The mysterious visitor sneered: "It doesn't matter who I am. I just came to warn you that a new dark force is rising, and their goal is to destroy everything you have built, including this Soul Master Academy."

When everyone heard this, their hearts tightened.

"Why are you telling us this?" Ye Li asked.

The mysterious visitor was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Although I am in the dark, I don't want to see the Wuhun World being completely destroyed. This is just a warning, believe it or not."

With that, the mysterious visitor disappeared without a trace.

Chu Tian and others realized that new challenges were coming, and they must be prepared to protect this newly established land of hope and the peace of the entire Wuhun world.

Therefore, they began to strengthen the defense of the academy, and at the same time secretly investigated the situation of this so-called new dark force. They knew that this battle might be more difficult than before, but they would not retreat because they were the guardians of the martial spirit world.
