Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the White Tiger, He Possesses Dai Mubai's Body at the Start

Chapter 9 Mu Bai: I want to do business with the academy.

However, Tang San is now enrolled at Notting Academy.

Mu Bai was deep in thought.

At Notting Academy, Tang San didn't need Tang Hao to secretly protect him.

Therefore, Tang Hao is most likely currently guarding the valley where Ah Yin and the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone are hidden.

Going there now would be suicide!

We need to plan this out carefully!

For now, we can start by using low-intensity golden lightning to initially temper the body with lightning.

Furthermore, he attempted to recreate the various soul skills he invented during his White Tiger era using this body.

In addition, the soul power compression can begin!

......

Three days have passed in the blink of an eye.

For the past three days, Mu Bai has not returned to Shrek Academy and has stayed in Soto City.

In the hotel, he began to compress the soul power within his body and started the initial lightning tempering process.

Soto City is one of the two largest major cities in the Barak Kingdom, and there are many clinics run by physicians and support-type soul masters with healing soul skills.

Mu Bai stayed here, compressing his soul power and undergoing lightning tempering, which caused damage to his body.

You can go to the clinic run by a healing-type support Soul Master as soon as possible to treat your body.

Then, they went to a high-end restaurant to eat medicinal cuisine made from the meat of high-grade soul beasts and the roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits of plant soul beasts to nourish and repair their bodies.

The pure-blooded white tiger, which was transformed from a transmigrator and had been living in the Yin-Yang Well for tens of thousands of years, was also present.

Mu Bai's mental strength is extremely powerful.

In three days, Mu Bai compressed the soul power within his body to the limit that his body could currently withstand.

Currently, Mu Bai's soul power level is only level thirty-five, Soul Master.

However, in terms of quality, they should be no less than Soul Masters at the Soul Saint level!

After all, this body had been strengthened by the immense life force of a pure-blooded white tiger that had sacrificed itself 700,000 years ago.

During this time, Mu Bai also finalized the key to cooperating with Shrek Academy.

Three days later, at dawn.

Mu Bai carried an inconspicuous cloth bag and returned to Shrek Academy, his feet glistening with morning dew.

Compared to three days ago.

Now, his aura is even more profound.

Those silver, double pupils shimmered with a restrained luster in the morning light.

After returning to Shrek Academy.

Mu Bai did not go directly back to his dormitory, but instead headed straight to the deepest part of the academy, to the largest building—the dean's office.

The door was ajar, and the voices of Flander and Zhao Wuji could be heard coming from inside.

"...So, that kid is a monster!"

Zhao Wuji's rough voice carried undisguised admiration.

"Old Li was completely stunned by the beating. His hand was bandaged for several days before he recovered."

"A level 35 guy taking on a level 63 guy, and even getting Old Li bloodied? I've never seen anything like it in my life!"

"Twelve years old, level thirty-five, White Tiger Martial Soul..."

"His surname is Dai, and he has double pupils. He is most likely a member of the Star Luo royal family. However, his martial soul is not the Evil-Eyed White Tiger. It is a benign mutation and evolution."

"How could the Star Luo royal family release such a genius?"

Flander's voice, however, carried a thoughtful tone and a hint of doubt.

"Who cares!"

Zhao Wuji didn't care at all.

"If it's really a monster, I'll take it! Isn't that what Shrek Academy does?"

"That's true, but..."

Flanders was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Flander pushed up his glasses, resuming his usual shrewd expression.

Mu Bai pushed open the door and entered.

Today he changed into a black outfit, and his dazzling golden hair was neatly tied back, making his double pupils even more striking.

He nodded slightly to the two people inside the room.

"Dean Flander, Vice Dean Zhao Wuji."

"Yo, Mu Bai, you're back?"

Zhao Wuji grinned and patted the empty chair next to him.

"Sit down! I was just talking to you!"

Flander scrutinized Mu Bai closely, his eyes behind his glasses flashing with a critical light, filled with curiosity and doubt.

This kid's aura really doesn't seem like that of a Soul Master.

Is this the aristocratic temperament of royalty?

"Dai Mubai."

Flander spoke slowly, his fingers tapping lightly on the table.

"Teacher Zhao told me that your performance in the fourth assessment was... amazing."

"By sheer luck."

Mu Bai chuckled softly, calmly sat down in the chair Zhao Wuji pointed to, and placed the cloth bag at his feet.

"We can't afford to let Teacher Li get hurt by luck."

Flander stared at him.

"Is there something you need today?"

Mu Bai looked up at Flander, his silver eyes calm and still, and slowly said.

"Mainly for the college's meals..."

"The food?"

Flanders was taken aback.

"Yes."

Mu Bai nodded, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable certainty.

"The food at the college is terrible; it's just boiled vegetables in plain water, with no oil at all."

"This kind of diet is harmful to the cultivation and growth of a Soul Master."

Flander's expression immediately turned somewhat awkward. He subconsciously pushed up his glasses and coughed lightly.

"Well... Dai Mubai, for Soul Master cultivation, the most important thing is willpower and perseverance; external things are just aids."

"Simple meals are a good way to temper one's character. Back in my day..."

"Dean."

Mu Bai was speechless. He interrupted Flander's about-to-be "bitter memories" and stared directly at Flander with his silver double pupils.

"If hardship alone could make you stronger, then why are the vast majority of the Title Douluos at the top of the continent from various sects, royal families, and the Spirit Hall?"

"Why have almost all the geniuses with innate full soul power been snapped up by the major powers?"

Flanders opened his mouth, but was momentarily speechless.

Mu Bai continued.

"The cultivation of a Soul Master may indeed require a strong will."

"But it also requires sufficient nutrition, appropriate medicinal baths, high-quality meditation methods, and guidance from a skilled teacher—these are all resources."

"Denial of the importance of resources is nothing but self-deception."

Flander's face flushed slightly.

How could he not know these things?

But Shrek Academy is poor!

Because he does not accept investment from other forces, he is worried about losing his independence and voice, but he also lacks stable business income.

The teachers only occasionally take on odd jobs, taking students to the Great Soul Arena to earn some gold soul coins.

After maintaining the college's operations and purchasing basic supplies, there wasn't much left.

But could he say these things to a freshman, especially one who seemed to come from a privileged background?

Wouldn't that make Shrek Academy look incredibly incompetent?

"Ahem, Mu Bai, kid."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Zhao Wuji tried to smooth things over.

"What you say makes sense, but the academy has its own difficulties..."

"I know, that's why I'm here to help the academy solve this problem!"

Mu Bai smiled faintly.

"I'd like to collaborate with the college and discuss a business deal."

"Business?"

Flander and Zhao Wuji both looked at him.

"Yes."

Mu Bai picked up the cloth bag from beside his feet and placed it on the table, but did not open it immediately.

"I have a business that could make a lot of money, but right now I don't have the manpower or time to run it myself."

"I want to collaborate with the academy—the academy will provide personnel to handle all the miscellaneous tasks such as raw material procurement, production, and sales, while I, or rather the people behind me, will provide core technologies and operational guidance."

"The person behind you?" Flander's eyes narrowed.

"Yes."

Mu Bai told a lie without changing his expression.

He didn't want to reveal that he was the one who created these things; that would be too complicated to explain.

By giving himself a false sense of authority, he could reduce these troubles and make Flanders and others hesitant to act against him.

That's undoubtedly a good idea.

"Profits will be split 40/60."

"The college takes four, and I and the technology provider take six."

Flander did not answer immediately. He leaned forward slightly, his fingers interlaced on the table, his eyes behind his glasses staring sharply at Mu Bai.

"What kind of business can make a lot of money? How much profit is there? What are the risks?"

"What exactly it is, we'll demonstrate later."

Mu Bai remained calm and unhurried.

"As for profits... conservatively speaking, if it goes smoothly, it could bring the academy more than one million gold soul coins in net profit in the first year."

"If the business is run well, we will keep opening branches everywhere."

"Even earning tens or hundreds of millions of gold soul coins a year isn't difficult!"
