Douluo: When Tang Wulin Met Little Huo Niang

Chapter 45 Freshman Assessment
"Students, tomorrow is the freshman assessment. This freshman assessment is very important. I hope you can take it seriously from the bottom of your heart."

As Wang Yan spoke, he wrote the four big words "Freshman Assessment" on the blackboard.

Now, about three months have passed since Dai Huabin dropped out of school, and the college's annual freshman assessment has begun again.

"This year's freshman assessment adopts the form of a three-on-three actual combat match, so the first thing we need to do is to divide the groups. As for the grouping, I will help you do it based on my understanding of you. If any students are not satisfied, you can raise objections to me. So first of all, the first group: Tang Wulin, Huo Yutong, Zhou Sichen."

Hearing Wang Yan's call, the three stood up from their seats.

The attention of the students in Class 7 was immediately focused on these three people.

Three months later, these three people have changed a lot, especially Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong, who are completely different people from three months ago.

Tang Wulin's body grew rapidly with the help of the high-quality ingredients provided by Moon. Now his height has surpassed Huo Yutong. No one can tell that he is only nine years old. Not only that, his temperament is much calmer than before. His performance in the actual combat in the past few months has convinced the whole class. No one dares to question why he can become the class monitor.

Huo Yutong also got rid of her previous malnourished appearance. If she was a little skinny before, now she is simply petite and cute, which suits her style. The resources of the Poseidon Pavilion are also tilted towards her. In addition to the few pills she obtained at that time, her level has now reached level 17, and she is no longer the last in the class.

Wang Yan looked at the three people who stood up and said seriously:

"I believe everyone has seen that the three of them are basically the strongest group in our class, and they are the seeded players of our class. Tang Wulin, I chose you three to form a group with no other purpose than to let you win the championship. It doesn't matter what the other groups do, but if you three don't win the championship in the end, you will be punished."

He was not exaggerating. Over the past three months, he had fully understood the strength of Tang Wulin and the other two. The hard power configuration of this trio was definitely the strongest among the freshmen. In addition, Wang Yan had given many practical classes to Class 7 of the freshmen. If they could still lose, it could only be because they were careless or not serious.

The students in Class 7 of Freshman Class originally looked at these people with a bit of envy, but now the envy disappeared in an instant.

They had heard that there were Soul Masters in other classes as well, and it was not easy to win the championship in the freshman assessment.

Next, Wang Yan divided the students of Class 7 into groups one by one.

It has to be said that Wang Yan really knows the students well enough. After three months of observation, he has gained a full understanding of the information of all the students in the class. None of the 99 students in the class are dissatisfied with his grouping.

After dividing the groups, Wang Yan patted the desk on the podium.

"Tang Wulin, come and help me distribute these papers. After completing the freshman assessment, you will be re-assigned to classes. At that time, your classes will be re-assigned according to your development path, so the choice of path is crucial. I should have taught you a lot of knowledge in this area in the past three months. It is up to you to decide. I hope you will not make a choice that you will regret."

As Wang Yan was speaking, Tang Wulin had already distributed all the papers.

He returned to his seat and wrote the word "strong attack" on the paper without hesitation.

Just like Wang Yan said, his fighting style is all about overpowering others with force, and breaking all laws with one force. It's such a waste to let such a person be a control system.

In addition, there is Huo Yutong, a top controller, in the team, so he naturally will not think of himself as a controller as before.

Soon, all the students in the class had filled out their decisions. Tang Wulin stood up again, collected all the papers, and handed them to Wang Yan.

After Wang Yan took a quick look at his classmates' choices, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good, it seems that the auxiliary role is not written as a troublemaker with strong attacks. Although some of your choices are different from what I thought, I respect your choices. By the way, is there anyone in our class who wants to go to the Soul Guidance Department?" Ever since Yan Shaozhe retired from the position of dean and the indifferent Gong Changlong became the new dean of the Martial Soul Department, the Soul Guidance Department began to develop rapidly with the support of Moon.

The previous rule was that it was not until the third year that the Soul Guidance Department could pick up some poor students from the Martial Soul Department that the Martial Soul Department did not want, and these poor students could also be actively rejected.

But now it is different, starting from the first grade, those in the Martial Soul Department who want to go to the Soul Guidance Department can sign up, and it is compulsory for the third grade batch to join. The stagnant development of the Soul Guidance Department has finally restarted.

Hearing Wang Yan's question, Huo Yutong raised his hand without hesitation.

She now studies the knowledge related to soul guides under Qian Duoduo's guidance every night, and has vaguely touched the threshold of a first-level soul guide. She is genuinely interested in soul guides, so she is naturally the first to raise her hand at this moment.

Wang Yan was not surprised by this. He had already known from Huo Yutong her plans for the future. Her soul skills and martial spirit were indeed suitable for learning soul guides.

"Okay, Huo Yutong is one, are there any other students who would like to join this program?"

With Huo Yutong's call, two more students soon raised their hands.

There are three students in this class who are interested in joining the Soul Guidance Department.

Wang Yan wrote down their names and instructed:

"Okay, I will submit your names to the academy. You can go to the Soul Guidance Department's Office Building No. 1 to report to the relevant teachers. However, before the third year, you still have to learn basic martial soul knowledge in the Martial Soul Department. After the third year, you can officially transfer to the Soul Guidance Department. Sit down."

After saying this, Wang Yan put down his notebook, picked up the chalk again, and said:

"It's still early, so I'll tell you about the precautions during the assessment. After three months of study, I believe you all have enough experience in fighting between peers. Next, I'll tell you how to deal with powerful enemies that are difficult to defeat - in our case, that is, how to struggle when facing a team with a Soul Master."

Tang Wulin listened carefully to Wang Yan's story and his expression became more serious.

Moon told him last night that as long as he could win the freshman assessment, he could choose any three herbs prepared for him by the academy.

Combined with the wealth he had gained from forging during this period, he was able to purchase one more herb. This meant that if he could win the freshman assessment, he would be able to secure the materials needed to unlock the next seal.

This is so important to him that he is determined to get it.

Digression
Regarding the difference between the combat systems of Douluo Dalu II and Douluo Dalu III, I personally think that the biggest difference is that Douluo Dalu II is still in the field of martial souls and soul skills, while Douluo Dalu III has already entered the field of bloodlines and self-created soul skills.

A reader once said that in the second-level fighting mechanism, everyone has a control, and in the third-level fighting, the numerical values ​​are basically all strong attacks. I think this statement is correct.

After all, if you think about it carefully, there seem to be few among the Dou San Qi Monsters who use soul skills as their main means of combat. Almost all of them are proficient in swordsmanship and boxing, or rely on innate abilities like Xie Xie. The only one among the Dou San Qi Monsters who uses soul skills as his main means of combat is Xu Xiaoyan, the number one mechanical monster in Dou San.

From this we can see that soul skills focus on mechanism, while bloodlines focus on numerical values. This is roughly the approach. This is also the root of the difference in fighting style between Douluo Dalu 2 and Douluo Dalu 3.
