Chapter 349 Another Two-Bar-Zero (4K)

In addition to Chen Ping, Huo Yuhao, and He Caitou, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's exchange student program also included seven other top students from Shrek Academy's Inner Court Soul Guidance Department.

Although the average level of the inner court disciples of the Soul Guidance Department cannot yet compare with that of the inner court disciples of the Martial Soul Department.

However, those who are trained by the Soul Guidance System each have their own outstanding qualities.

Moreover, all the students in Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department have studied in the Martial Soul Department.

Being able to get into Shrek Academy means that their martial spirit is not mediocre.

Those who can enter the inner academy must possess a top-tier martial spirit.

All the inner court disciples selected this time have a cultivation level of at least Soul King and the ability of at least a Level 5 Soul Master.

Even in the Sun Moon Empire, they would be considered quite outstanding talents.

Of course, even though they are both level 5 Soul Masters, a level 5 Soul Master from Shrek Academy cannot compare to a level 5 Soul Master trained by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

The two sides do not have completely consistent rating standards for Soul Masters.

Chen Ping, Huo Yuhao, and He Caitou flew at the back of the line.

On He Caitou's chest was a Level 6 Soul Master badge.

As the point that attracted the most attention during this exchange and learning session, He Caitou's Level 6 Soul Master badge was definitely going to be prominently displayed.

As for Chen Ping, he wore a standard fourth-level Soul Master badge, which was a deceptive tactic.

Next up is Huo Yuhao, who took the practice of using connections to the extreme and directly received the Level 2 Soul Master badge.

For the next two and a half years, Huo Yuhao was positioned in the Sun Moon Empire as a genuine nepotism beneficiary, a disciple of Xian Lin'er, posing no threat whatsoever, and a playboy who was simply there to gain prestige.

Anyone from Shrek Academy is a master!
Just gild it, and show all the new gadgets to Master Huo first!
Well, given Huo Yuhao's personality, he probably couldn't portray such a fiery tone, but that's roughly the idea.

Shrek Academy is located in the southeast of the Heavenly Soul Empire, while Maple Leaf City is in the southwest of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

The distance they flew was twice the distance from Shrek City to Star Luo City, the capital of the Star Luo Empire.

Given the students' soul power, they needed to rest after flying for an hour, so Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo did not carry people on their flight like Elder Xuan did.

They didn't arrive at their destination until the afternoon.

Maple Leaf City was an important supply city for the western frontier army of the Heavenly Soul Empire, and also an important trading city on the border.

Although not as prosperous as Shrek City, its scale is in no way inferior.

Upon entering the city, Yan Shaozhe led his group of students to a hotel to stay in. He told them to get some rest.

The seven students from the inner academy were all familiar with each other, but they were not very familiar with He Caitou, who had just entered the inner academy with Bei Bei and the others through a higher-level assessment, as well as Chen Ping and Huo Yuhao.

Of course, the phrase "not very familiar" itself implies that one is still quite familiar with the subject.

Chen Ping's reputation spread from the inner college to the outer college.

Furthermore, everyone in the Soul Guidance Department knew that it was because Chen Ping and the others returned from the competition that the academy changed the inner court assessment rules, allowing martial soul department students to use soul guidance devices for assessment.

The students in the Soul Guidance Department seized the opportunity to make a fortune by taking custom orders for Soul Guidance Devices, and naturally, they wouldn't forget Chen Ping's name.

Of course, precisely because of this, there are quite a few fifth and sixth-year students in the outer academy's martial spirit department who want to beat up Chen Ping, since customizing a set of soul tools is quite expensive.

Soon, Ye Xiaosheng, who was the leader of the Inner Academy's Soul Guidance Department students in the original work, came over very politely and exchanged pleasantries with Chen Ping and the others.

Chen Ping, of course, gave him a polite reply, saying that they would help each other out once they arrived at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Chen Ping's words immediately relieved Ye Xiaosheng.

He didn't expect these three gentlemen to be at his beck and call. As long as they didn't order them around, Ye Xiaosheng would be secretly happy.

Chen Ping's words just now were, firstly, a gesture of goodwill, and secondly, an indication that since there's nothing else going on, both sides can go about their own business, which is a very good outcome.

The meeting between Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy took place the morning of the following day.

Early in the morning, all the students had already gotten ready and, led by Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo, arrived at Maple Leaf Square, located in the center of Maple Leaf City.

Chen Ping soon spotted someone he knew.

After two years apart, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, the siblings, have clearly grown up a lot.

At seventeen years old, they look almost no different from adults.

The brother and sister stood at the very front of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy's procession.

As for the fat old man with a white beard at the front, Chen Ping guessed that he was most likely the grandfather of the Hongchen siblings, Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was indeed determined this time, and not only did Xiao Hongchen and his sister come.

Among all ten students, Chen Ping also saw three who were reserve members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy who participated in the last competition.

The two sides met in the center of Maple Leaf Square, and Xiao Hongchen's eyes immediately fell on Chen Ping, who was standing at the back of the line.

When Xiao Hongchen saw the Level 4 Soul Master badge on Chen Ping's chest, he couldn't help but curl his lip and give Chen Ping a provocative look.

Chen Ping wasn't going to let this unlucky kid get away with it. He said directly, "Xiao Hongchen, did you suffer some psychological trauma from being defeated in the last competition? Why are you making faces at me like that?"

Xiao Hongchen immediately became furious. "Don't hit someone in the face, don't insult someone by revealing their shortcomings." Chen Ping's words were extremely hurtful.

To be beaten 2-0 in your most promising year is something no one can handle.

"You son of a bitch, come out and fight me one-on-one if you dare!"

Xiao Hongchen clenched his fist.

They still haven't figured out Chen Ping's exact strength, so much so that they don't know how to fight him in the next competition.

His reaction at this moment seemed reckless, but in reality, he wanted to use a harmless one-on-one match to probe Chen Ping's true strength.

If Xiao Hongchen loses, it won't matter at all; as long as he can get a feel for Chen Ping's hand, it's not a loss.

But if Chen Ping loses, the recording of this private battle will be available to everyone in Mingdu tomorrow, allowing the people of Riyue who didn't win the last competition to start a frenzy.

Chen Ping curled his lip upon seeing this and laughed at Hongchen's brain, thinking that he could come up with such a plan that would benefit him no matter what.
Looking at the smiling, chubby old man with a white beard standing at the front of the Sun and Moon faction, Chen Ping snorted coldly.

Judging from this, the idea most likely came from this old guy who is suspected to be Jing Hongchen.

I'll extort your worldly blessings from you sooner or later!

"Hehe, young people are so energetic, that's good. Thinking back to my old days, I was just like that too, hehehe, I hope Dean Qian and Dean Yan won't laugh at me."

As he spoke, the old man turned to look at Xiao Hongchen: "You brat, hurry up and apologize to classmate Chen."

Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe's heart tightened immediately.

He was a shrewd and intelligent person, how could he not guess what the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was doing?
Sure enough, the next moment, Xiao Hongchen snorted coldly: "He should be the one apologizing to me."

Suddenly, tensions rose between the students of Shrek Academy and the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, while the old man smiled at Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe, as if the situation was already settled.

"Hehe, my grandson is just too stubborn. Chen Ping, I am Jing Hongchen, and I apologize on Xiaoxiao's behalf." Jing Hongchen chuckled and stroked his white beard, then changed the subject: "But young people, it's good to have some competition. I wonder if it would be convenient for you, young Chen, to lend a hand and give Xiaoxiao another talking-to?"

This old guy is too slippery and too cunning; he just lifted Chen Ping up!
Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe exchanged a glance, both seeing the headache in each other's eyes.

This is a battle that offers no benefit to Shrek Academy. Winning or losing, it's a loss!

But if Chen Ping doesn't accept the challenge, it will damage morale even more, and it will still be a loss!
I'm amazed! Why are all the people of the Sun Moon Empire so evil?!

Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe were already cursing inwardly.

But Chen Ping's next answer was unexpected not only by Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe, but also by Jing Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen.

Chen Ping simply smiled calmly: "Ah, Master Jing, you are mistaken. How can we argue with a child?"

"Kids will be kids, they're not careful with their words, it's normal for them to say something outrageous. Just give them a good beating when you get back, but don't punish them by taking away all the exchange student spots, that would be too much."

"???"

Xiao Hongchen was dumbfounded; he never expected Chen Ping to say such a thing.

“Junior brother is right. Hall Master Jing, you should discipline your grandson.”

“My junior brother is Elder Mu’s last disciple. It would be really outrageous for him to be fighting so fiercely with a junior.”

Yan Shaozhe finally understood what Chen Ping was doing, and he was secretly overjoyed, but he still forced a serious expression and gave a few words of criticism.

Now it was Jing Hongchen's turn to be dumbfounded. This kid was the Dragon God Mu En's closed-door disciple?

"Master Jing, let's keep to ourselves. From now on, I'll call you 'Brother,' and you can call me 'Classmate.' That's settled. As for Laughing at the Mortal World..."

"Oh well, I won't hold it against you."

Chen Ping's attitude of not arguing with children infuriated Xiao Hongchen. Chen Ping called him grandpa and brother, so wasn't Chen Ping also his grandpa?
For a moment, the students on Shrek's side started to chuckle, and a few with a low threshold for laughter even laughed out loud.

"Well then, Chen, let's leave it at that for now. I'll teach Xiaoxiao a lesson when he gets back to school."

Chen Ping ruined the plan that would have been a win-win situation, so Jing Hongchen could only try to find a way to win elsewhere: "It's quite an impressive lineup that your school has sent two deans at once."

As she spoke, Jing Hongchen looked at Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo, her words carrying a hint of sarcasm.

Qian Duoduo laughed even harder upon hearing this, "Aren't you just walking into a trap?"
"Haha, I just broke through to Super Douluo a few months ago. I came out for a stroll. I haven't had much to do lately, so this is a good opportunity to teach my students."

"Master Hongchen, you may not know this, but Old Yan used to say that the difference between an ordinary Douluo and a Super Douluo was like heaven and earth, and I didn't believe it."

"He's really broken through to Super Douluo now, guess what?"

"Old Yan was right, this Super Douluo is indeed different from ordinary Title Douluos, hahahahahaha!"

Qian Duoduo patted Jing Hongchen on the shoulder with a smile, causing Jing Hongchen's face to turn ashen, just like Xiao Hongchen's.

You, Qian Duoduo, have become a Super Douluo, no longer the same as ordinary Title Douluos. I'm only level 93!
At this moment, Jing Hongchen was both annoyed and alarmed.

If he remembered correctly, Qian Duoduo was only the vice dean of the Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department, right?

Even the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department is a Super Douluo! Just how many Super Douluos are hidden within Shrek Academy?

Is Shrek Academy's foundation really that terrifying?

And then there's the Dragon God Mu En, who's lived for so many years and is still alive.
Jing Hongchen subconsciously clenched her fists, her knuckles turning slightly white, and forced a smile.

"In that case, let's exchange teachers and students and part ways here."

In a brief meeting and two encounters, both ended in defeat for the Sun and Moon side.

Yan Shaozhe was almost at his breaking point. He had been scored two bars and zero points in just a few minutes. Now someone was going to have trouble sleeping tonight.

Yan Shaozhe smiled faintly: "Master of the Red Dust Hall, farewell."

Jing Hongchen nodded slightly: "Brother Yan, please take care."

After their eyes met, Yan Shaozhe leaped up without even needing a flying soul tool.

It was as if there was an invisible staircase in the air; as you stepped forward, you were instantly high in the sky.

The students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy quickly activated their flying soul tools and followed closely behind.

Seeing this, Jing Hongchen could only turn around and say, "Everyone, let's go too. On behalf of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, I welcome you to join us."

After saying this, Jing Hongchen also leaped up, and two thin golden lights suddenly unfolded behind him, slowly raising his body.

Chen Ping carefully examined the flying soul tool he was using, which actually looked like a pair of wings.

Thin and soft, it had no metallic feel at all. A pale golden light flowed across it, and no soul power was seen emanating from it. It simply stretched gently and carried Jing Hongchen into the air.

This is one of the most cutting-edge research directions of the Sun Moon Empire: Soul Guidance Bionic Technology. It can use Soul Guidance Devices to simulate biological forms and possess some biological characteristics.

Jing Hongchen originally intended to use this trick to intimidate the Shrek Academy members, but soon the Shrek Academy members each had a set of the new type of flying soul tool that had appeared in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Competition, which deflated Jing Hongchen's spirits.

Their bionic flying soul tool is at most more flexible and quieter, which is indeed a significant advantage over common flying soul tools on the market.

However, compared to the amazing new turbojet flight soul guides that consume less power, are faster, and have a higher thrust-to-weight ratio, they are somewhat lacking.

Fortunately, the flying soul tool on his back was still a level nine soul tool, which could still intimidate people no matter what.

Although it's already embarrassing to try to intimidate people with a level nine soul tool, it's better than not being able to intimidate anyone at all.

Thinking of this, the pair of flying soul tools behind Jing Hongchen, as thin as cicada wings, suddenly shone with golden light.

Everyone felt a golden light curtain descend from the sky, and the next moment, their bodies were already enveloped in it.

Immediately afterwards, everyone's bodies soared into the sky as if riding on clouds.

They then discovered that Jing Hongchen's pair of flying soul tools had suddenly expanded a thousandfold.

They were enveloped in a layer of golden light, hovering behind Jing Hongchen, with two huge golden wings, each ten meters wide, gently flapping, no longer needing their own flight soul tools for propulsion.

"Holy crap, awesome!"

Chen Ping expressed his heartfelt admiration, then nudged Huo Yuhao beside him with his elbow.

Huo Yuhao immediately understood, the meaning was clear—Big brother, don't worry, leave it to me!
