Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 180 is absolutely awesome!
The weather was still very sunny today, and Shrek Academy had already started the new school year.

Students in each grade face different pressures. New students have their entrance exams, while students in other grades have their advancement exams and more complex courses.

Chen Ping really enjoyed the intense learning atmosphere, which made him feel that time flew by.

Each time I just turn around slightly, I can feel my real progress and improvement, thus forming a positive cycle of active learning and self-cultivation.

Since returning from the treasure appreciation event, Chen Ping has devoted himself to studying the encryption array of the core structure of soul tools.

Chen Ping found this field increasingly interesting as he learned more about it.

From the most basic and simplest mechanical expansion class that self-destructs upon disassembly, to the encrypted array nested within the normal core array that automatically triggers the melting process upon disassembly, all of these opened Chen Ping's eyes to a whole new world.

After spending a few days, Chen Ping created a usable encryption device, installed it into his flying soul tool, and gained Qian Duoduo's approval.

This means that Chen Ping's second-tier flying soul tool, which allows a Great Soul Master to soar through the blue sky, has finally been approved for use.

At the same time, Qian Duoduo, who had witnessed Chen Ping's newly evolved martial soul, also told Chen Ping something.

If Chen Ping wants to get another high-level soul bone for free as material for further evolution of his martial soul, he must make it into the top seven in tomorrow's selection competition.

Chen Ping was completely baffled by Qian Duoduo's seemingly nonsensical remark. After thinking about it carefully, he finally understood what Qian Duoduo meant.

The selection competition that Qian Duoduo mentioned, isn't it the same selection competition for the Shrek Seven Devils?

The easiest way to become a full member of the Shrek Seven Devils is to first become a reserve member and fight as a reserve member.

Then, five years later, as a formal member of the team, he would compete in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Tournament, win the championship, and then share the three ten-thousand-year soul bones as the championship reward.

The Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament is held every five years. The ticket revenue, taxes, and even the overt and covert casinos set up by various countries can ultimately generate more than 100 million gold soul coins.

In this situation, the three ten-thousand-year soul bones, which are worth a total of ten million gold soul coins as a champion's reward, are a small amount of money. Chen Ping doesn't need to worry about the organizers not being able to come up with the money.

Not only that, Qian Duoduo also confided in Chen Ping.

For the academy, bringing back the championship is equivalent to solidifying its prestigious reputation.

Because Shrek Academy has won the championship almost continuously for the past ten thousand years, in addition to the three ten-thousand-year soul bones provided by the tournament organizers, the academy will also prepare soul bones of at least five thousand years level as a reward for the other four members of the main team.

As for whether the four soul bones are for personal use or for sale, the academy does not concern itself with them.

Chen Ping felt that Qian Duoduo was probably not lying to him. After all, Huo Yuhao in the original novel obtained an Ice Explosion Soul Bone, and with the three Soul Bones from the competition, the reserve team only managed to obtain a total of four Soul Bones.

Later, because of the outstanding performance of the reserve team members, the academy specially gave each of the remaining three people a soul bone, which was of the ten-thousand-year level.

From this perspective, Qian Duoduo's claim that each member of the main team in every major competition has a soul bone is probably not a hoax.

This immediately piqued Chen Ping's interest in tomorrow's selection competition.

Three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones, with a total value exceeding ten million gold soul coins, are a drop in the ocean compared to the hundreds of millions earned by the four great empires in hosting the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament. But for an individual, it's an absolute fortune. Zhong Liren, an Evil Soul Douluo, has only about eight hundred thousand gold soul coins in his entire fortune, aside from his nearly one million-value, level-eight soul guide staff capable of storing beast souls.

Although Chen Ping now has some savings, he would never let go of this opportunity to get himself a soul bone that can be at least ten thousand years old.

Besides, he's not the same person he was as a freshman now!

As a first-year student, he focused on skillful gameplay on the Soul Arena, with mechanics playing a secondary role; numerical stats were not particularly important.

But now, he can disregard both the controls and the mechanics.

Before he could switch back from the "Beast Staff - Savage Elephant" martial soul to the "Insect Staff - Dragon," he only had stats, no skills!
If he doesn't beat the other guys who want to compete with him for the Soul Bone spot to a pulp, how can he justify his hard work and dedication throughout the past academic year?

Just as Chen Ping had predicted, after he finished his afternoon classes, Wang Yan seamlessly took over from Mu Jin, who had just finished her lecture, and stood on the podium.

"The rest of you can leave now. Our core students will stay behind."

Wang Yan glanced at everyone in the class and spoke.

Soon, all the non-core disciples in Class One left, and the entire Class One became quiet again, leaving only Chen Ping and a group of core disciples.

Immediately afterwards, the homeroom teachers of Class 2 and Class 3 also led their core students into the classroom, including Ning Tian, ​​Xie Huanyue, and others.

Well, Class Four doesn't have any core disciples, so no one came.
Wang Yan waved his hand, looked at the group of core disciples below, and said, "Alright, the reason I called all the core disciples of our grade together today is to tell you that the outer academy will be holding a core disciple selection competition tonight."

"This selection is usually reserved for third, fourth, and fifth-year students, but this year our college's second-year students have achieved such outstanding results in the college entrance examination that the college has decided to include all the second-year students as well."

After saying this, Wang Yan paused.

In an instant, the eyes of more than a dozen core disciples in the classroom all fell on a few individuals.

Clearly, they were looking at the five people who had scored full marks and super full marks in the arena's upgrade assessment a few days ago.

"Hehe, it seems everyone understands why we second-year students have the opportunity to participate in this selection competition."

"However, I want to tell everyone that no matter if you are one of the five people who got full marks or even more than full marks in the upgrade assessment, don't be discouraged or complacent."

"In this selection competition, our second year has produced the most core disciples. All the participants are core disciples under the age of fifteen from the outer academy, including those from the Soul Guidance Department. I counted, and there are about thirty people."

"However, out of these thirty people, only seven can ultimately remain to participate in the secret mission that the academy will assign to you later."

When Wang Yan said this, he deliberately emphasized the words "secret mission," which made the core disciples in the class eager to get started, their faces flushed and necks red, without asking what the secret mission was.

Well, for a young Soul Master of this age, the words "secret mission" are attractive enough on their own. It sounds like they're about to become secret agents and carry out some kind of mission, which is incredibly cool.
