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

Chapter 291 Finding a Father for the Heavenly Fiend Douluo
At dawn, after washing up and having breakfast, the Shrek Academy team, dressed in dark green outfits, strode confidently onto Star Luo Square, instantly igniting a tidal wave of cheers.

After more than a month of fierce competition, they stood out from the initial hundreds of teams and finally made it into the top four.

This has indeed been quite a long time, so much so that Chen Ping, Wu Feng, and Ning Tian have all jumped up a level.

Ning Tian, ​​in particular, has even shown signs of being promoted another level so far, which is quite exaggerated.

It's unknown whether she will overtake Dai Huabin under the pressure of the competition and reach level 40 before him.

For these four final elite teams, every battle is crucial, and every victory brings them one step closer to the championship.

The rest area has been carefully adjusted and divided into four separate zones to ensure that teams maintain an appropriate distance from each other.

Although there was still nearly half an hour before the start of the match, all four teams had arrived, and the air was filled with a tense and fierce atmosphere. Even the occasional exchange of glances could ignite intense sparks.

As dawn broke, sunlight bathed Xingluo Square, casting a soft golden hue over the entire square.

This seemed like a signal, a signal that a battle was about to begin.

The first day of the semi-finals was a team battle.

To everyone's surprise, a ten-meter-wide red carpet was laid out from the direction of the imperial city gate all the way to the front of the competition stage.

Ten minutes before the draw was to begin, the gates of the Imperial Palace were opened wide.

Surrounded by palace guards, Xu Jiawei strode out and headed straight for the competition stage.

"Long live!" The soldiers raised their weapons, and the people responded enthusiastically, making the whole square boil with excitement.

The members of the four teams also stood up and paid attention to His Majesty the Emperor.

Chen Ping noticed that there were four old men standing next to the emperor of the Star Luo Empire. The four of them formed a square, and the emperor was at the center of the square.

Even a fool could guess that these four were probably the four titles that Xu Jiawei used most easily and trusted the most.

As for Cheng Gang, the protector of the nation, Chen Ping couldn't say for sure, since Xu Jiawei had only issued an official apology and stated that the compensation was still being raised.

Well, from this point alone, it's clear that Cheng Gang's fate won't be good. The compensation that Xu Jiawei struggled to scrape together for several days was vented on Cheng Gang.
Xu Jiawei, surrounded by four Titled Douluo, stepped onto the competition stage. Facing the direction of Xingluo Square, he smiled and said, "My people, please stand."

A cheer erupted in Xingluo Square.

Xu Jiawei didn't say anything pretentious or empty. He simply expressed his admiration for the performance of each team in this competition and for the ever-changing landscape of the Soul Master and Soul Instructor worlds. He also mentioned that he personally presided over the final draw for the top four.

This made Chen Ping think more highly of Xu Jiawei.

Ultimately, Xu Jiawei's Xingluo was not like the Qing dynasty, and he did not have any concerns about losing his rule due to technological changes.

Under these circumstances, Xu Jiawei, as a great leader with a sound strategic vision, attached great importance to the development of soul tools.

Moreover, Xu Jiawei is quite pragmatic and did not rashly choose to invest heavily in the research and development of soul tools when the gap was too large, but the monetization cycle was extremely long.

Instead, he first tried to find the best examples of the integration of soul masters and soul tools in the continent-wide advanced soul master competition, and then proceeded gradually and strategically. Moreover, Xu Jiawei did not mind buying some equipment to arm his soldiers first.

Everyone knows the saying "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime," but when people are about to starve, they are forced to be short-sighted.

Having achieved this level of skill, Xu Jiawei is definitely among the best of the four emperors.

Unfortunately, Xu Jiawei's only flaw was that he was born too late. If the entire Star Luo Empire were a person, Xu Jiawei would be the one who only thought of running away when the Sun Moon Empire's butcher's knife was already at his throat.

Soon, one of the elderly men next to Xu Jiawei took two steps forward, facing the rest area, and said in a deep voice, "Please invite the captains of the four teams to come up on stage to draw lots."

An indescribable powerful aura suddenly burst out from the old man's body. The astonishing pressure even made everyone in Xingluo Square feel as if the sky was darkening.

Xu Jiawei smiled and said, "To ensure the safety of the upcoming matches, I have decided that every subsequent match will be officiated by an Imperial Protector Douluo. Today's draw and the first match will be presided over by Senior Huang Jinxu, whose title is Tiansha."

Upon hearing Xu Jiawei's words, Chen Ping immediately remembered who this Heavenly Fiend Douluo was.

This Heavenly Fiend Douluo's martial soul is the Heavenly Fiend Lone Star; all his parents and relatives were wiped out by this guy.

To be precise, given that his own martial soul is the Heavenly Lone Star, Huang Jinxu's title should be Heavenly Lone Douluo.

However, it is clear that Huang Jinxu was very dissatisfied with his identity as the Lone Star, which is why he fabricated a non-existent title, the Heavenly Fiend.

This made Chen Ping scratch his head subconsciously.

After the incident with the Dragon Girl, Chen Ping is now quite certain that a true curse that can kill people exists on the Douluo Continent.

The most powerful of these should be the curse released by the auspicious beast's fortune, which never appeared in the original work but was taken away by Huo Yuhao.

Besides that, there's probably a death curse similar to Dragon Girl's, whoever she glares at dies.

This gave Chen Ping a bold idea: if he could make Huang Jinxu, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo, owe him a huge favor, could he make Huang Jinxu recognize Tang San as his godfather, and then kill Tang San from the God Realm, who was thousands of miles away?

This isn't just wild speculation. Considering the curse and blessing system in Douluo Continent, if Tang San were to actually take Huang Jinxu as his adopted son, he'd probably be genuinely humiliated by this old man.

Chen Ping stroked his chin, feeling that the idea was not very reliable, but it was indeed a good strategy for facing Tang San in the future.

Tang San has already ascended to the God Realm; he shouldn't be protected by the fortune of Douluo Continent anymore.

If he still had the power of destiny protecting him, he wouldn't have been so preoccupied with the destiny of the human world and the world of soul beasts even after reaching the realm of gods.

Um.
Chen Ping thoughtfully stroked his non-existent beard, adding this idea to his list of one hundred contingency plans for dealing with Tang San.

Huang Jinxu was naturally unaware that he was almost a hundred years old, and there was a teenager in the audience who wanted to find him a father.

All I can say is that Chen Ping, who comes from Earth, does have a really unconventional way of thinking!
