Chapter 153: The leader of the Zhatian Gang!
"Master, where is your master? Is he in Shrek Academy in Douluo Continent?"

"That's not the case. Our leader is right in front of you."

At this point, how could Xuan Ziwen not understand who the sect leader was?
"Li Sansi, are you going to sell this soul guide idea of ​​yours? I am willing to pay any price. As long as you can sell me this magnificent research result."

Seeing the teacher's eagerness, Li Sansi smiled secretly in his heart. He understood.

For a research fanatic, nothing can compare to such a temptation. Since he wants it, I can clearly state my price.

"Teacher Xuan, this thing is not a question of whether it can be sold. I don't think you are a warmongerer. Do you think that after I sell this thing to you, or to the Sun Moon Empire behind you, they will not use it to attack us, Shrek Academy and the other three empires?"

In that dark and heavy laboratory, as soon as the words fell, it seemed that even the ticking of the clock froze. The space seemed to be invaded by frost, and the cold current spread silently in every corner.

He tilted his head slightly, his eyes were sharp, like a sharp blade suddenly drawn from its sheath, cutting through the depressing atmosphere.

Under the increasingly tense gazes of the surrounding observers, his face darkened in an instant like a rolling dark cloud, which made people think of the deathly silence before the storm. The murals on the surrounding walls looked even more eerie under the dim light, and the flames by the fireplace jumped, stretching his shadow long, as if echoing his momentum.

He was like a predator in the night, silent yet extremely threatening. He slowly stood up and his back disappeared into the dense shadows.

To the famous teacher in front of him, such an attitude was undoubtedly a naked provocation. With his hands naturally behind his back, his body was straight, solid as a rock, giving off an unshakable aura.

"Aren't you afraid that I might do something bad to you because of your research results?" His voice was low, as if coming from the abyss, echoing in this laboratory decorated with classical oil paintings and huge bookshelves, and the threat was clear and unmistakable.

However, facing his words, Li Sansi, as his opponent, stood in front of the dimly lit French window, with the dark and deep night sky and mottled city lights behind him. Li Sansi's neither humble nor arrogant attitude was like a solitary peak, standing firm in the wind and rain.

The tip of his slightly raised eyebrows was like an arrow, and the sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth was his signature touch, adding a touch of contempt and confidence to the confrontation.

"Then you can give it a try." Li Sansi's voice was not loud, but rather calmer, but behind that calmness was a determination and strength as strong as thunder. The light answer cut through the air, filling this room full of bookish atmosphere with a fighting spirit.

Then, he stretched out his right hand, as if the light and shadow passing through the bookshelves brushed across his skin, forming a distinct outline. His fingers were slightly bent, and the posture of clenching his fist was majestic without anger, revealing the hesitation of controlling everything. In his eyes, there was a light like spring thunder, and his movements were slow and firm, but full of explosive courage.

When his palm slowly pushed forward, at that moment, ripples seemed to appear in the space, and the books on the bookshelf shook slightly. An invisible giant beast seemed to struggle in this silence, trying to release its existence.

Then the air surrounding Li Sansi's body began to become blurred and distorted, as if affected by a strong energy field, and the night scene and city lights behind him were also distorted into chaos by this force.

The strange phenomenon descended, and the sky and the earth changed color. Yellow, purple, black, red, the seven colors of light were like the rays of light before dawn, interweaving into a huge and dazzling scene. The seven soul rings, each of which was mysterious and precious, were like the supreme treasure from the world, slowly flying around Li Sansi's body, as if telling his legendary story.

The eyes of those who had looked down on Li Sansi all froze, and everyone's chest was hit, like a sudden winter wind, making people feel the biting cold instantly. "Soul Saint? There are actually three 10-year soul rings."

Xuan Ziwen's mouth opened, and his words echoed in the wide laboratory, but his heart seemed to fall from a high altitude, straight into a bottomless abyss. His eyes seemed to see an unprecedented wonder, and the expression on his face was like the rapidly changing seasons, evolving from the shock of autumn to the disbelief of winter.

The seven rays of rainbow light reflected in his black eyes, and he realized that beneath the appearance of this ordinary teacher, there was actually a giant dragon in the world of soul masters.

His heart was filled with waves of fear and awe, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

Xuan Ziwen now understood that the power displayed by Li Sansi, who was standing opposite him, was an astonishing potential that was almost ready to explode. This monstrous existence was simply unprecedented in the world of soul masters.

This terrifying aura rushed directly towards him, and the ridiculous thoughts in his mind made him feel as ridiculous as a clown at this moment.

He originally thought that if he used his strength to crush the other two, they would not be able to resist him. Unexpectedly, the other side hit him directly on the head.

"How is it, teacher?" The student's voice echoed in the spacious but dim laboratory, almost drowned out by the sound of bubbles coming out of the droppers and test tubes. "Do you think you still have the strength to defeat both of us?" He asked again, facing Li Sansi who was standing across from the laboratory table. There was a soul guide that had obviously been used for decades, and next to it was a pile of thick scientific research notes, with endless stories revealed between the yellowed papers.

Li Sansi's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smile that seemed both sarcastic and confident. Behind him was a blackboard filled with formulas and data, reflecting his persistence and loneliness in many years of research.

Across from him, Xuan Ziwen opened his mouth, a hint of deep bitterness spreading from the corners of his mouth. He stood next to an old centrifuge, which faced the only small window in the laboratory. It was late at night outside, but every instrument in the laboratory seemed to be quietly listening to this contest.

"I admit that you are very powerful. Tell me, what do you want in exchange for selling this result to me? How about I do my best to teach you. Or I can exchange my own research results with you." Xuan Ziwen's voice seemed even more resolute under the flickering fluorescent lights. His shadow stretched on the electronic scale next to him, just like his mood at the moment.

Li Sansi just shook his head slightly, maintaining a calm expression on his face, as if this bargaining was just another routine step in the experiment, and he was used to precise control of every variable.

The price offered was not enough, not even close to what he had expected. The laboratory shelf behind him was filled with various reagents, each bottle of which was a witness to the past years and also a hope for future breakthroughs.

"Do you understand or not?" Xuan Ziwen suddenly raised his head, a flash of anger in his eyes. The soul guide in front of him was the result of his many years of research, and he could not accept such an easy denial. At this moment, the atmosphere in the laboratory was even more depressing, and tension and uneasiness were entangled in this thick air. The walls of the laboratory were covered with various honorary certificates, which witnessed the past glory of this place. Tonight, this place has become a battlefield where ideals collide with reality.

In the dimly lit empty room of the laboratory, Li Sansi stood beside a row of neatly arranged workbenches, glanced casually at the complex instruments on the table, and said in a somewhat indifferent voice:

"I don't quite understand your research results, but judging from these drawings and models, they seem to be far more suitable for use on the battlefield than the theory proposed by Wensley."

He seemed to have little interest in the dazzling array of scientific research equipment around him, not to mention the scientific value of the results. The contempt in his words was like an invisible cold wind, echoing in this spacious and epoch-making room, making the originally warm air suddenly seem cold.

Xuan Ziwen stood there in a daze. The intricate blueprint in front of him looked extremely desolate. Next to the crowded bookshelves and flashing computer screens, his disappointment almost solidified into a tangible shadow. He stared at Li Sansi in a daze. He wanted to defend himself, but he felt that any words would be pale and powerless in the face of such a frank rejection.

All the achievements before this man, no matter how extraordinary their scientific significance, seemed to fail to shake him in the slightest. Even the dynamic simulations repeatedly played on the huge LCD screens that occupied the entire wall failed to move him.

Xuan Ziwen took a deep breath, using all his restraint and politeness to suppress the urge to argue: "Forget it, if these results don't impress you, we have nothing to say." He turned his eyes to the whiteboard behind him with precise drawings, almost begging: "I still say the same thing, I really hope you can sell this research result to me."

The transformer in the room made a faint sound, and his figure became more and more lonely. He looked at Li Sansi again, and the loss in his eyes was like the thick twilight under the night sky: ", our mastery of soul guide technology has reached a certain level.

I believe you can reach a higher level after you sell it to me. "He paused for a moment, and then said again in an almost begging tone: "We will do our best to conduct research and teaching, not for others to understand, but for contributions to science. "

There was a barely perceptible firmness in his tone, and along with the trembling light, the voice slowly settled in the corners of the laboratory that had been forgotten by time.

"Let's talk about this later. I want to ask you if you have ever thought about leaving here one day?"

Xuanciwen was stunned for a moment. "No, why should I leave here? My own ideal is to become the world's top soul guide. I want soul guides to be something that ordinary people can use, to completely change their lives. Even to change the world. Only Mingde Hall on the mainland can provide me with such a good research site and funding."

"Although they can't teach me anything, I have the best research conditions here. Although your Shrek Academy is very strong in the field of soul masters, it is far behind in this aspect and is not better than Mingde Hall at all."

Li Sansi smiled and said, "I didn't mean to ask you to join our Shrek Academy. Shrek Academy really can't provide you with a better place for research. But what I want to say is that if you want to obtain our research results, you can only join our sect, because the secrets of the sect cannot be leaked. Moreover, our research results are linked to the secrets of our sect. What I just showed you is only a small part of it. There are many more in the future, but I can't say so much here for the time being."

Xuan Ziwen asked subconsciously. "You have a sect. What sect do you belong to? Have I heard of it?"

Li Sansi smiled and said, "I wonder if you have heard of the Sky-blasting Gang?"

Xuan Ziwen thought for a moment and then suddenly realized, "Is it the Sky-blasting Gang that has branches in the four empires? I heard that their business has spread all over the country."

"Yes, our current Zhatian Gang has research funds and venues. Although it is not as good as the Mingde Hall, there are other red mentors in Mingde City. They can't give all the resources to you alone. But our Zhatian Gang can completely tilt all the resources to you alone. I believe you have heard about the wealth of our Zhatian Gang.

Although they are not as big as Mingdetang in terms of total volume, they are completely incomparable to us in some local aspects.

You should know that in Mingde Hall, all teachers share Mingde Hall's resources, and as long as you join our Zhatian Gang, all of our Zhatian Gang's resources can be deployed at will, serving you alone, and there are also many research results. Please consider which is better. "

Hearing this, Xuan Ziwen felt a little moved.

What Li Sansi said was not wrong. Although Mingdetang was wealthy, rich in resources, and had a very good research facility, the conditions offered by Zhatian Gang completely surpassed Mingdetang. It was just as he said. In fact, there was a lot of competition in the factory, and all the resources could not be used by him alone. To use some of the more precious research materials, he had to apply to the higher authorities. But if he joined Zhatian Gang, he could use these resources at will without any restrictions. Thinking of this, his breathing became a little hurried, and it was obvious that something had changed in his mind. But he seemed to still have some concerns in his heart.

He didn't agree immediately. After thinking for a while, he spoke.

"The conditions you mentioned are very tempting, and even I can't help but be tempted. Although research funds and research sites are necessary for a soul guide, for me, my pursuit is not just that. I also care about the wonders of the soul guide world. If the research you just showed can exceed ten types, then what if I join your Sky-blasting Gang?"

Li Sansi raised his right hand and placed it in front of Xuan's fingerprint.

"What?"

"In that case, we have made a promise and we cannot go back on it. Let's high-five and swear an oath."

Li Sansi explained with a slight smile.

Xuan Yufeng smiled and said, "Do you think it's so easy to research a soul guide? The soul guide we just made is indeed good. But that's all. You should know that a soul guide can't research one decent result in his lifetime, let alone ten. If one day you can do it, then it's nothing for me to join you, but it's completely impossible now."
