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

Chapter 192 Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?

This was another day for Master Xuan to teach.

At this time, the seven members of the reserve team would wait in the assessment area early in the morning for Master Xuan's instruction.

The same is true today.

However, as soon as they entered the assessment area, they unexpectedly saw some unfamiliar faces, all of whom were inner court disciples wearing red school uniforms.

The leader was a familiar face to both Chen Ping and Xu Sanshi.

It was Ma Xiaotao, who was known as the Flame Demon.

Today, Ma Xiaotao neatly combed her long hair into a ponytail, looking clean and tidy. She nodded slightly to Chen Ping when she saw him.

She seems to be in good condition today, and should not be suffering from the torment of internal heat.

The other six trainees beside Ma Xiaotao were four men and two women. They all looked to be around the same age as her.

Elder Xuan nodded and said, "Everyone is here. In ten days, the new All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament will begin. I believe you can guess each other's identities. That's right, you are the regular and substitute players for this competition."

"These are the old and new generations of Shrek Seven Devils. Today, I'm having you meet for two reasons: first, to get to know each other, and second, to let you get to know each other's abilities."

As he spoke, Elder Xuan turned to Chen Ping and the others, “You must not think that you are just spectators in this competition. On the contrary, you will be the ones who put in the most effort in the first half of the competition.”

“When we encounter opponents who aren’t too strong, you guys have to step up. That’s what they mean by not using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, understand?”

Upon hearing that they might be able to participate, everyone was both surprised and delighted.

Although in Elder Xuan's words they were only considered "chicken-killing knives," as long as they could be used on the field, being a chicken-killing knives was fine.

Elder Xuan snorted and said, "Don't be too happy yet. Sending you out to compete is inevitable, but you can't afford to lose. If any of you accidentally lose the match, hehe."

Elder Xuan's words sent chills down everyone's spines. Although Elder Xuan never seemed to get angry or upset with them, he was, after all, a top-tier Super Douluo!
To be targeted by someone like that and suffer some mistreatment is not a pleasant experience.

For a moment, everyone's eyes became more serious and earnest, even Chen Ping was no exception.

After all, without Ning Tian's boost, Chen Ping's combat strength is at most slightly stronger than a Soul Master. He'd be lucky to last a few moves against a Soul King. He should at least have some respect for the strong.

Elder Xuan nodded: "Alright, everyone introduce yourselves and get to know each other. Let's start with the reserve team."

"My name is Beibei, and I'm a fifth-grade student in the Foreign Languages ​​Department."

"He Caitou, fourth-year student in the Outer Academy, Level 4 Soul Master"

"."

After the four Soul Masters introduced themselves, it was the turn of the three second-year students.

Wu Feng raised his head with a hint of pride and a touch of provocation: "Wu Feng, second year of the outer academy, level 32 offensive-type Battle Soul Master."

Many students in the inner courtyard were taken aback by the information Wu Feng revealed, and at the same time, they understood the source of the provocation in Wu Feng's eyes.

It has to be said that there are very few among them who are at a higher level than Wu Feng right at the start of their second year.

They've got some skills; it's true that the younger generation surpasses the older.

The students in the inner courtyard couldn't help but laugh when they saw Wu Feng standing tall and proud like a little fighting rooster. She was truly a remarkable second-year girl.

But how come a second-grader was able to participate in the selection this time, and even stand out from the crowd?

After Wu Feng came Chen Ping, who said in a deep voice, "Chen Ping, second year of the outer academy, level 29 power attack type Great Soul Master, level 2 Soul Master."

This time, none of the students in the inner courtyard gasped in surprise—after all, Chen Ping was more famous in the inner courtyard than in the outer courtyard.

The way a golden crystal bursts the eight-ringed evil spirit Douluo is a bizarre way of killing him, which is extremely rare in the entire history of Shrek Academy over the past ten thousand years.

Moreover, Chen Ping had previously pulled off a daring act that "failed to assassinate the evil spirit but instead presented a knife," which was quite entertaining. Which student in the inner court didn't know Chen Ping? Sure enough, as soon as Chen Ping finished his self-introduction, many students from the inner court gave him a thumbs-up and a friendly smile.

Finally, Ning Tian, ​​the youngest member of the team, stepped forward and said, "Ning Tian, ​​second year of the outer academy, level 36 support-type Soul Master."

Hey!
This guy is a cultivation fanatic!

Even Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng were shocked this time.

Even the two of them, when they first started their second year in the outer academy, their levels seemed to be about the same as Ning Tian's, right?
But don't forget, those two are proper offensive-type Soul Masters, while Ning Tian in front of them is a support-type.

Support-type Soul Masters typically cultivate at a much slower pace than those of other types.

The fact that three second-year Soul Masters came to the reserve team this time is already quite unusual.

He has only introduced himself so far, but he is indeed a man of great talent and ability.

Elder Xuan nodded, pointed towards the inner courtyard, and said, "It's your turn."

The first person to emerge from the inner courtyard was none other than Ma Xiaotao.

"Inner Courtyard, Ma Xiaotao, Level 67 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Emperor."

Even Chen Ping, who already knew how outrageous Ma Xiaotao's cultivation level was, still gasped when he heard this cultivation level.

That's why Ma Xiaotao is so shrewd. Before reaching level 70, her cultivation speed plummeted, but she managed to cultivate at the very point where her ultimate attribute was just a little short.

After passing the level 70 hurdle, which slowed her down, she finally upgraded her martial soul to the Ultimate Fire, exploiting a bug to understand its true nature.

Although it seems like Ma Xiaotao didn't intentionally create this bug.
"Inner Court, Dai Yueheng, Class of '64"

"Inner Courtyard, Chen Zifeng."

When the inner court students introduced themselves, Chen Ping matched their names with their appearances one by one.

Chen Ping paid special attention to those students who were either dead or crippled.

He has no intention of putting in any effort or carrying the pressure in this Soul Master Competition.

If possible, it would be best to retain all of these senior students from the inner academy.

He'll win the entire Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament without lifting a finger, how wonderful!

However, Chen Ping could only say that he had done his best. After all, he could easily find out what kind of environment Shrek Academy had for soul tools by asking around.

"Senior Sister Xiaotao, I think I heard that one of the Shrek Seven Devils is supposed to be a member of the Soul Guidance Department, but why isn't one of you?"

Chen Ping asked the question.

Ma Xiaotao said dismissively, "It used to be there, but it disappeared after I came back."

“Our team can’t do without others, but we can do without a Soul Guidance Master. What good is a Soul Guidance Device?”

Chen Ping shrugged, with an expression that said, "I knew it."

Given the shabby environment of the inner courtyard, it might not be easy for him to persuade these damned bastards to prepare a couple more defensive soul tools.

Chen Ping glanced at Xuanzi, who was still drinking, and suddenly felt as if he were in charge of a preschool for troubled children.

Sigh, saving my own life should be the priority first.

Before leaving, Xuanzi and the group of problem children in the inner courtyard advised him to drink less alcohol and wear more defensive soul tools, which he considered to have done his best.
