"The original martial soul?" Dai Yutian was a little puzzled.
Dai Yichen used his Spirit Eyes martial soul the next moment. His eyes glowed with gold and there was a layer of vertical pupil lines in the middle of his forehead. "This is my second martial soul, Spirit Eyes, a spiritual martial soul."
Afterwards, Dai Yichen explained the concept of the original martial soul to Dai Yutian.
"This is really amazing. So, those who failed to awaken their martial souls in the past probably had a certain chance of having their martial souls mutated, awakening their original martial souls and being mistakenly believed to have failed to awaken..."
Of course, the probability of failure in awakening the martial soul is very small, perhaps only one in a thousand people, and whether this person has awakened his true martial soul is still unclear.
"Oh, by the way, during the six months you were away, a talented civilian soul master came to the academy. She also had the token you gave her. I had already arranged the best training resources for her. I didn't expect that you would come back with a soul master with full innate soul power!"
"The blacksmiths that Lou Gao brought with him have also arrived. I have also cleared out one of the larger colleges in the academy and changed it into the Soul Guidance College. The funds and materials they need are also being supplied one after another. Everything is going smoothly."
Dai Yutian sighed, "I just hope this soul guide research can really produce results. To be honest, it's too expensive. Some of it has to be taken from the military and my inner treasury."
Dai Yichen had thought of transferring some funds from the armaments. After all, the army would be equipped with hidden weapons such as the Zhuge Divine Crossbow in the future. It was understandable to fund the armaments, but why should the inner treasury also pay for it?
Seeing Dai Yichen's doubts, Dai Yutian could only say: "Didn't you say that the production of soul guides must be kept secret? In this case, we cannot mobilize too much funds from the national treasury, otherwise we will be impeached by some ministers. This plan is carried out in secret, so the funds can only come from me!"
Looking at Dai Yutian who was in great pain, Dai Yichen looked down on him and said, "What's wrong with taking some money from your inner treasury? As an emperor, don't tell me you have no money."
Dai Yutian complained, "There are some secrets you may not know. Before the Haotian Sect closed its mountains, our Xingluo Empire had to pay tribute to them in exchange for their support. Otherwise, why do you think the mainland uploaded that the Haotian Sect was secretly supporting us?"
"So during that period, our royal family's funds were actually very tight, and there were too many places where money had to be spent. It was precisely because of this that the Spirit Hall's branches were able to be opened throughout the empire. After all, this saved a lot of money..."
Although the Star Luo Empire seems to be prosperous on the surface, due to the intervention of the Spirit Hall and the open support of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect for the Heaven Dou Empire, what is the use of the powerful military of the Star Luo Empire?
There are still not enough top-notch experts, so we can only cooperate with the Haotian Sect.
Dai Yutian sometimes thinks that the territory of the Tiandou Empire is too good, and the top three sects are all in Tiandou. If they have one here...
This was also the first time that Dai Yichen knew such a secret. He thought that the Haotian Sect was voluntarily supporting the Xingluo Empire. It seemed that he was still naive. If there was no benefit, why would the Haotian Sect support you?
So he said, "When the Zhuge Divine Crossbow is released, it will definitely cause a sensation on the continent. I will give you 20% of the profits."
"What? Only 20%?" Dai Yutian was immediately dissatisfied.
Dai Yichen said speechlessly: "20% is a lot, okay? All you did was to help collect materials and provide accommodation. The blueprints and other things were all given by me, and I will continue to invest in the production of soul guides after making money, which is very expensive."
"Oh? So, I don't have to pay anymore money later?" Dai Yutian thought about it. If that was the case, then getting 20% of the profit for free was actually not a loss.
"Okay then. Oh, by the way, after we go out this time, between you and Dugu Bo..."
Dai Yichen said: "Dugu Bo and I are friends now. You may not believe it, but he intends to match me up with his granddaughter." Dai Yichen said, raising his eyebrows at Dai Yutian.
Boom——
This news shocked Dai Yutian. Doesn't this mean that his Xing Luo Empire will have a Titled Douluo in charge from now on?
And it's not a relationship of interest. As long as his royal family treats Dai Yichen better, Dugu Bo will not rebel.
Who is Dai Yichen? His best son!
As a father, how could he not be good to his son?
DAVIES: So? Will family affection disappear?
Dai Yutian: No, family affection will not disappear, but it will shift.
Although Dugu Bo is not considered very strong among the Titled Douluo, he is still a Titled Douluo, which can make his Star Luo Empire more confident.
"Oh, by the way, the old monster is now level 94, and the reason why he was weak before was because he was sick. He is fine now." Dai Yichen saw what Dai Yutian was thinking and said lightly.
"My dear son, tell me, I will give you whatever you want in the future. How about the throne as well?" Dai Yutian sincerely felt that his son was the most suitable person to inherit his throne.
Dai Yichen:...
He didn't know whether Dai Yutian was telling the truth or not, but he had no interest in the throne. With so many tedious things to deal with, wouldn't it be better for him to just be a prince?
Wouldn't it be better to leave all those things to Old Deng? Do you really think that everyone wants the throne? If you become strong, power will come naturally.
Otherwise, even if he became emperor, he would just be a puppet.
"Forget it, I have no interest in the throne. You are the only ones who like to be one. I still like to practice and play with the people I like in my free time. Isn't that good?"
Dai Yutian: .....
He had never expected this answer, and his expression suddenly changed. He said earnestly, "That won't work. If you don't inherit the throne, who will?"
Dai Yichen said indifferently, "You are in your prime now, so you can hold the position for a few more decades without any problem. Just because I don't like it doesn't mean my son doesn't like it, right? When I have a son in the future, I'll see if he is willing."
Dai Yichen's unborn son: You old man, you're cheating me like this before I was even born?
Dai Yutian felt helpless, but there was nothing he could do. Looking at Dai Yichen's expression, he was not pretending. He was really not interested in the throne!
"Well, I'll let my old bones hold out for a few more years. Then you can have a baby with Zhu Qing or Zhu Yun, or Dugu Bo's granddaughter!"
Dai Yichen:...
My goodness, how old is he now? He's not even married yet, but he's already urging people to have a baby?
Let's put this aside for now. Dai Yichen discussed with Dai Yutian in detail the reform of the empire and the disposal of the martial spirit branch halls in the empire.
