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

Chapter 189 Size Changes Anywhere

Perhaps Xuanzi did indeed have the idea of ​​rewarding Chen Ping with chicken legs.

But my main thought was definitely to see which tasted better, my chicken leg or Chen Ping's Orleans-style roasted chicken leg.
However, Chen Ping quickly took the chicken leg and took a big bite.

In any case, he was the first person to receive a chicken leg from Elder Xuan.

I must say, the chicken leg in Elder Xuan's hand did indeed have a unique flavor.

Chen Ping took a bite, and the tender chicken was easily split in two.

The plump, juicy chicken thigh meat immediately released its own aroma along with the juices into Chen Ping's mouth.

Compared to Chen Ping's roasted Orleans chicken leg, the greasy chicken leg in Xuan Lao's hands clearly emphasizes the flavor of the ingredients themselves.

Chen Ping quickly devoured the entire chicken leg, not even leaving the bones behind. Relying on his good physical condition and strong teeth, he crunched and swallowed the bones as well, which immediately earned him a thumbs up from Elder Xuan.

That's what a true connoisseur is—swallowing the bones along with the meat before making a judgment.

"Hehe, I guess the chicken leg is made from the golden pheasant, otherwise it wouldn't have such a rich meaty aroma."

"Next time, could you get me some golden pheasant drumsticks? I'll use these to marinate some Orleans-style drumsticks for you to try."

Chen Ping made a judgment.

Old Master Xuan chuckled, a hint of mockery in his eyes: "So I'll give you a hundred chicken legs, and you'll give me fifty of them back. The remaining fifty are all defective, so you don't have to hand them in, right?"

When Elder Xuan exposed his past practice of using leftover ingredients, Chen Ping's face flashed with a shameless, "I'm not afraid of boiling water" expression—after all, those ingredients had already ended up in his stomach.

"Hmph, considering how much of a show you've made today, overshadowing all the senior students, I'll let it slide with you, you slippery brat."

Seeing Chen Ping resorting to shamelessness, Elder Xuan was not annoyed. Instead, he chuckled and took a sip of wine: "Keep this up, and don't give me any record of being good at internal battles but bad at external ones."

"You should know that not only does the academy have high hopes for you, but Elder Mu has also placed his bets on you. As a reserve team member, don't let the academy down. Five years from now, you'll be leading the team."

Elder Xuan didn't mince words; he simply told Chen Ping that he had entered the core circle of the academy.

Based on Chen Ping's performance in this selection competition, Master Xuan does not believe that Chen Ping is likely to be dropped from the main team.

"Well, what's the deal with your martial soul? If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. Elder Mu specifically instructed us that such secrets shouldn't be pried into. The reason I'm asking is purely out of curiosity."

After telling Chen Ping to be humble and not arrogant, Elder Xuan couldn't help but inquire about the changes in Chen Ping's martial soul and soul skills.

Huo Yuhao might think that Chen Ping's Elephant Cudgel is his second martial soul, but Elder Xuan would not think so.

The reason is simple: since breaking through the second ring, Chen Ping has only left Shrek City twice.

One time, Du Weilun took them, and another time, Qian Duoduo took them. In total, they only hunted one soul beast.

In this situation, unless Chen Ping is a reincarnation of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, where would he find a soul ring to attach to his second martial soul?

The problem is, which family has a 100,000-year-old soul beast that has been reincarnated with a weapon spirit?

That's how Elder Xuan realized that the Savage Elephant Staff Chen Ping used was definitely not his second martial soul, but rather a martial soul evolved from a soul bone he devoured. What he didn't understand was where the two soul skills Chen Ping used during his soul battle came from.

Just then, Chen Ping twirled the Elephant Staff in his hand, and the originally rough staff gradually became neatly arranged with scales and patterns.

Pale golden scales seemed to rise from the bottom of the water, quickly covering the entire staff.

The irregular, stubborn rock-like hilt of the staff was pried open again by the gleaming bell. In just over ten breaths, Chen Ping's staff had transformed back into the Dragon-Touching Staff.

The scene of Chen Ping's martial soul changing size at will left Elder Xuan completely stunned. He already knew that Chen Ping's martial soul could evolve, but he had never heard of Chen Ping's martial soul being able to change back!

Chen Ping's first spirit ring lit up, and the tip of his staff was immediately stained with a bright green light as he thrust it towards Elder Xuan.

Elder Xuan grabbed the tip of the stick, feeling the tingling, corrosive power, his eyes filled with shock.

One martial soul, two sets of soul rings?

After explaining to Elder Xuan that his martial soul seemed to have two modes, Insect Staff and Beast Staff, and that switching between the two modes required a cooldown period, Elder Xuan looked as if he had just seen something new and let Chen Ping leave.

"Duoduo has a good eye. He can find any disciple he wants, and they are all outstanding in terms of martial soul and soul tool aptitude."

"So what if you're in second year? For true geniuses, what difference does it make if they study a couple more years earlier or later? Hehehehe."

Watching Chen Ping's retreating figure, a faint smile finally appeared on Elder Xuan's weathered face.

As Chen Ping stepped out of the Soul Battle Zone, he was surprised to find that the rest of his temporary team had not left but were waiting for him outside the zone.

"Why are you all crowding at the door waiting for me? I feel so embarrassed."

Chen Ping scratched his head.

Beibei smiled slightly and said, "You're a big contributor to this selection competition. We're waiting at the door to thank you."

"I never expected that in just over a year, you would go from a Soul Master without even a Soul Ring to a prominent figure in our academy."

"After this battle, I guess the names of me and San Shi, the twin stars of the outer courtyard, are not as well-known as yours."

Beibei's words were truly from the bottom of his heart. He never imagined that Chen Ping would grow to this level in just over a year.

Thinking back to the day she first met Chen Ping, Bei Bei felt as if she had lived through another world.

"It's all thanks to you, Brother Beibei, and Sister Xiaoya, who by chance lured away that thousand-year-old Touch Dragon King. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance to get my first soul ring. I might have turned into a soul beast poop tree by now."

Chen Ping spoke in the most calm tone, yet uttered the most shocking words.

For Chen Ping at that time, life was as worthless as grass.

These words immediately resonated with Jiang Nannan, who also came from a poor family, and her liking for Chen Ping increased.

"Hehe, you two brothers, stop passing the buck. I've mentioned you to Beibei several times already. If you hadn't knocked down that thousand-year-old dragon with one blow, Xiaoya wouldn't have been able to get such a good third spirit ring."
