The next day.
A long time ago, Chen Xin, who was still reading a book, unexpectedly saw Xiao Chenyu who came to visit.
"Your Majesty, did you rest well yesterday?" Xiao Chenyu asked with a smile.
"It's not bad, the comfort level here is really good."
Chen Xin didn't sleep last night, but spent the whole night in the study, and the more he read, the more energetic he became.
His assessment of the sleeping comfort was only for the little princess who was still fast asleep. He rarely saw Ning Rongrong sleep so well in an unfamiliar environment.
"Your Majesty..."
"Don't call me Your Majesty anymore. Just call me Grandpa Sword, like Ning Rongrong does."
Before Xiao Chenyu could speak, Chenxin spoke directly.
He said this not because of Ning Rongrong's relationship with Xiao Chenyu, but because he had read Xiao Chenyu's works all night and was showing respect and importance to the person in front of him.
“Then I shall presume, Grandpa Sword.”
Xiao Chenyu greeted him with a smile before getting back to the main topic:
"I originally wanted to ask Rongrong if she was sleeping well, but since she hasn't gotten up yet, I'd like to ask Grandpa Jian for advice."
"It's about knowledge of martial spirits, isn't it?"
Chen Xin raised the book in her hand and immediately saw through the other party's intentions.
"Yes, you are very knowledgeable and experienced, and as a titled Douluo of level 95 or above, you must know more than I do."
Xiao Chenyu first offered a couple of compliments, then said with a regretful expression:
"At first, I felt that the descriptions of martial spirits on the mainland were too superficial, so I wanted to learn more. As I learned more, I wrote down my thoughts, never expecting to write so much."
"In Grandpa Jian's eyes, what I've written is probably just like a child's drawing."
Back in the Crown Prince's residence, he didn't even have the confidence to face Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi.
But now, while he may not say he's fully grown, he at least has the ability to protect himself, and he feels much more confident.
Since Ning Fengzhi was away, befriending Chen Xin would only bring benefits and no harm, so he was naturally happy to talk about it more.
"You underestimate yourself too much."
Chen Xin shook his head, put down the "Classification of Martial Souls" in his hand, and sighed:
"Your book alone is enough to warrant being called a master."
"Compared to a true master, I am still far from it. At least my theories were scorned by that master."
At this moment, Xiao Chenyu seemed like a young man who wanted to be recognized. Although he spoke humbly, his tone carried confidence in his theory and a hint of defiance.
"You've met that master?" Chen Xin asked, somewhat surprised.
Xiao Chenyu knew he was referring to Yu Xiaogang.
There are very few people on the mainland who study the theory of Soul Masters; most of them are highly skilled seniors.
The fact that those seniors call them masters is actually belittling them; almost every such senior has a title or honorific.
Of course, there were some unexpected events.
As far as Chen Xin knew, that scion of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family was known as a master.
"Yes, he's currently teaching at Notting Academy, but unfortunately his teaching skills are only so-so. He's still being treated as a guest lecturer because of his good relationship with my third uncle..."
Xiao Chenyu's words were clearly biased, but what's wrong with an 11-year-old boy looking down on others with such high spirits?
Moreover, he had some minor conflicts with Yu Xiaogang, and recently, his promotion of his theories at Notting College had greatly displeased Yu Xiaogang.
[I highly recommend Yeguo Reading; it's really good for tracking books. You can download it here: yeguoyuedu. Give it a try!]
Xiao Chenyu even heard that Yu Xiaogang had privately slandered him, saying that he was too young to understand the scientific nature of the theory, and that he was not only delaying his own progress but also leading others astray.
Now that Yu Xiaogang had started, Xiao Chenyu didn't mind telling everyone he met about it.
"So that's how it is."
After listening to the story about Yu Xiaogang's recent situation, Chen Xin shook his head regretfully.
He has never commented on or targeted Yu Xiaogang, who was semi-exiled by the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.
But since he was Xiao Chenyu's rival, and the other party was indeed inferior to Xiao Chenyu, he could say a few words:
“In my eyes, your research has already surpassed his.”
After a pause, Chen Xin recalled for a moment, then pointed to the "Martial Soul Classification" on the table and said:
"I remember he once said that martial spirits are only divided into beast martial spirits and weapon martial spirits, which seems to be one of his ten major theories. And in this book, you focus on refuting this view."
Xiao Chenyu nodded and said very seriously:
"I think this is a very irresponsible and misleading conclusion. At first glance, it seems to make no problem, but in fact it is too general and abstract."
"That's true."
Having read the book before him, Chen Xin nodded in agreement:
"To crudely categorize food-type and plant-type martial souls as weapon-type martial souls is indeed too arbitrary. Although plant-type and food-type martial souls are similar to weapon-type martial souls, their manifestations are completely different."
"As you said in the book, weapon spirits are the tools that people hold in their hands and use, while food spirits are the tonics that people can eat. Plant spirits are separate from these two categories. Some can be used as tools for healing, some can be eaten as tonics, and some can even possess the body."
Upon hearing the agreement, Xiao Chenyu smiled and said, "That's why I divided Notting Academy into four major departments. I believe that the functions of weapon spirits, plant spirits, and food spirits go far beyond just combat; they have many more wonderful uses in daily life."
"Just like this Snow Garden, it was basically built through the joint efforts of various Soul Masters."
