Chapter 2: Flender's Dream

(MC pov)

Before taking the evolution card, I first took six external soul bones of the wind dragon type. And after taking the evolution card, they also evolved too.

Honestly other than my Martial Soul evolving into an Owl Headed Wind Dragon, my biggest gain so far wasn't the soul bones, but Soul Guidance Tool, or Soul Tool and a big progress into creating Spirit Soul.

The reason why I still didn't hunt for a Soul Beast was for the Spirit Soul. Because I only had 2 positions left for my soul rings, I had to be very careful in what I chose next. Otherwise, my dream of becoming a god would simply be just that, a dream.

So, I decided that as long as I didn't get the Spirit Soul technology I will never absorb any soul beast.

Besides it wasn't just the incomplete Spirit Soul technology that I wanted, but a perfect one. One which could make the soul beast cultivate on his own, without any external help.

Unfortunately, my descendants were never able to create that. But there were still some progress. Now, when absorbing soul beasts, the soul master could also take away the blood essence of the soul beast during the soul ring fusion process to enhance the quality of his own martial soul and make it more likely to evolve.

But while a good thing it wasn't what I was looking for. But I wasn't too disappointed, because to be honest, with how unimaginative people in Douluo Dalu were, I honestly expected no return at all.

So it was with a good mood that I start to meditate with my new cultivation technique for the rest of the night.

\----------/

The next day, I woke up with a good surprise.

My previous level which was 80 became 78. But it was a good thing. Because with the Mysterious Heavenly Sky Dragon technique, my soul power was now more compressed than before. This result in a qualitative leap in soul power, at the same time his base got more stable.

With some calculations, I estimate that it will take me at least half year, before all my soul power change.

So, with some lighter steps, I head out from my room to the new renovated cafeteria.

Because yes, after five simulations, if there's one thing I didn't lack of right now, that was money! So after my second simulation, I start to renovate the whole school. Giving it a new look.

But after obtaining the Soul Guidance Device technology I was going to upgrade it again. Because it still didn't have any mean of protection. But those weren't a problem because I already had those things in my system.

So when I saw Zhao Wuji, already up and eating, after some greetings I start to talk about my future plans.

"You should know that those months, other than trying to find a way for Ma Hongjun's problem, I was studying Soul Guides, right? Well I finally succeed in recreating them."

"Does that mean that we will finally go to get you a new soul ring?"

Asked Zhao Wuji with grin. I could easily guess that the prospect of fighting a strong opponent as well as gaining a Contra level powerhouse, easily hype him up. Unfortunately, he was wrong.

"It's still not the time yet. This time I want you to gather everyone to the Training Hall, because I finally have the tools to do the change that I wanted."

Seeing how serious I, although Zhao Wuji was a bit disappointed, he still nodded.

"You don't have to be so down. While becoming a Soul Douluo will indeed stop those noble from pestering us. But Wuji after so many years, I had the time to think clearly."

Thinking of my own past and the future I would have if I didn't change anything I indeed came to a conclusion.

"You should know that at first I only opened this school, with goal to become the first one in the mainland only to impress Erlong, right? But honestly after so many years, while the goal of making this school number one, hasn't change. But if I were honest with myself, I know that I already gave up on gaining Erlong heart."

Hearing me, Zhao Wuji suddenly became anxious.

"Flender, don't tell me that you want to close Shrek?!"

"Actually, after realizing that I indeed gave up on Erlong I indeed had that idea at first. But finally I decided against closing Shrek."

Seeing Zhao Wuji sigh of relief made me want to tease him more, but I finally refrain to do it.

"But Wuji even though I did decide to not close Shrek, but I didn't have any clear goal after that. Which is why those last years, I start to ask myself : what do I want? Why do I still cultivate? Why did I start to become a Soul Master?

It's only recently that I remembered why did I want to become a Soul Master. When I started in this path, at my young age I already knew that there were always shackles everywhere that stop me from doing whatever I wanted or go wherever I wanted. Which is why I became a Soul master, so that I could become a god! Because only gods aren't constraints by rules. Only gods are free!"

To buried in my memories, I didn't notice, but my speech greatly shocked Zhao Wuji. Especially when I continued.

"So, while I took my old dream again, but now I'm older with more need. And after teaching for more than 10 years I start to like it. Furthermore I know that with only 2 rings left on me the chance to become a god are very slim. So just wanting to become a god isn't enough for it to succeed. Only by having a greater objective could I work harder to attain my dreams.

So now I have a new goal, not only do I want to become a god, but I also want to cultivate my students to become gods too. So that even after fifty thousand years, people will always remember the name of Flender and his legendary Shrek Academy!"

Yes, cultivating the Shrek Seven Monsters to become gods was indeed my new objective.

If someone other than me knew the original they would have looked at me like a retard because the 7 Monsters will still become gods even without my help.

True, but here's what I can confirm after 6 simulations : I didn't like how DD ended. And I really hated Tang San 10, 000 years plan.

And if I wanted to avoid all of this, honestly I only had two viable options. One killing Tang San directly. But the problem is that for now without him most of the 7 monsters won't be able to become gods. And besides with Shura watching over him, it wasn't possible.

So I choose the second option : teach him how to be a descent human being!

And not only him, but everyone of them. Because let's face it, apart from maybe Zhu Zhuqing and Oscar, none of the other Shrek Seven Monsters were good people at the end of the story. Tang San was just the worst.

So now that I could change that, especially Ma Hongjun's ending, I was determinate to do it.

So 30 minutes after taking my breakfast, I watch as the last person came to the training Hall before starting. Taking a giant step towards my dream.
