Douluo Continent: I can nurture soul beasts and even perform super evolution.

Chapter 255 Leading the Team, Xiaobai, Jiang Nannan

The forging system has now undergone a significant upgrade.

Since Su Wen left, Shrek Academy has successively assigned several young men with special talents in "blacksmithing" to be temporarily taught by Master Du. At the same time, the fellow students mentioned by Master Du have also taken up teaching positions in the forging department.

Su Wen had met them before; they were all honest and simple blacksmiths.

Now that Lou Yingying and the others have returned, they have naturally become senior brothers and sisters.

"boom!!"

Inside the forging room.

Holding the Haotian Hammer, Wang Dong'er rhythmically swung it down with the last blow. The dark hammer with golden patterns was held in her palm, turning into starlight and entering her body. Then she looked at the finished product in front of her with satisfaction.

The silver was refined a thousand times.

Sunken silver is found only at depths of over 1,000 meters on the seabed. It is extremely tough and has strong ductility at high temperatures.

In the past, blacksmiths, influenced by the once-popular Tang Clan hidden weapons, mainly considered the hardness of metals when selecting them to determine their price. Even so, ten thousand years ago, sunken silver was an extremely rare and expensive commodity.

Today, as Su Wen unearths the treasures of the seabed, deep-sea silver has become a relatively common material in the forging system.

Of course, the reason this thing was popular until the era of battle armor ten thousand years later is because of its hexagonal warrior characteristics. In addition to its outstanding hardness, its soul power conductivity is also far superior to other metals.

A piece of high-quality sunken silver can increase soul power by 5% to 10%!

It's important to know that most metals lose some of their soul power conductivity!

Of course, the drawback is that it is a bit bulky and has an alarmingly high density. Even after ten thousand years, it will only be suitable for mecha or some heavy-duty fixed large soul tools.

Wang Dong'er exhaled a breath of stale air.

He then took out another piece of rare metal and began to melt and forge it with it.

The next moment, the action was interrupted.

"Su Wen?"

The girl had a towel draped around her neck, wearing a white tight-fitting tank top and light blue hot pants, looking like a beautiful young woman who had just finished exercising. Her long light blue hair was casually draped over her shoulders. The high temperature in the forging furnace would fade all makeup, so she never wore makeup, but her appearance was still... absolutely stunning.

"Hmm." Su Wen looked at the girl, slightly surprised.

He didn't expect it.

Mr. Du described Wang Dong'er as calm and down-to-earth. It was as if this girl herself was being tempered in a furnace, gradually shedding her impetuousness.

This is quite a change from the playful and adorable Wang Dong'er of the past...

As expected, it's the Tang family's ancestral forging talent.

Ten thousand years later, her own brother also became a master craftsman.

"Take it easy."

Su Wen held Wang Dong'er's hand.

A blush crept onto the girl's fair face. She did not refuse; the two had been accustomed to physical contact for years, having spent so much time cuddling and kissing in bed during their cultivation practice.

It's not like we've never kissed...

The two walked out of the forging room.

Walking along the shore of Poseidon Lake, it feels like a young couple taking a leisurely stroll.

It was dusk, and the setting sun cast its last rays on the lake. Many outer disciples came here for a stroll, but few recognized Su Wen and Wang Dong'er. However, Wang Dong'er's beauty attracted the attention of many.

"Your true identity..." Su Wen hesitated.

Wang Dong'er's body suddenly froze, as if struck by lightning.

Her small face trembled as she turned to look at Su Wen.

"Actually, Gu Yuena and I guessed it a long time ago, but we've kept it from you all these years, afraid that you might do something rash. But now, you're about to advance to Soul Emperor, and you're qualified to know the truth..."

Su Wen looked at Wang Dong'er and sighed softly.

The answer is destined to be cruel, but we will have to face it sooner or later.

The person she hated, who controlled her like a pawn, summoning her at will and discarding her at will, turned out to be her "biological" father. Anyone would find that hard to accept.

The girl's body trembled slightly as she lowered her head.

"Tell me, who am I?!" After a long period of mental preparation, Wang Dong'er raised her tearful face and asked.

“You are Tang San’s daughter,” Su Wen said.

"..."

The air seemed to freeze.

Wang Dong'er stared blankly at Su Wen, trying to find even the slightest trace of a joke, but there was none... After so many years of getting along, she knew that this roommate would not make fun of people in this kind of situation.

Is she Tang San's daughter?
but……

“Strictly speaking, you are one of the soul fragments of Tang San’s daughter.” Su Wen sighed softly.

After telling the girl this, it was up to her to choose how to proceed in the future.

"Tang San split your original body... let's call you Princess Tang for now, and your soul in two. One part was put into your body, and the other part is now missing. I once thought that the other soul fragment was inside the auspicious beast, but it wasn't... of course, it might be on him."

"He assigned you to Huo Yuhao's dormitory and mine because we are chosen ones, and you know all of this. But what you don't know is that once you and Huo Yuhao, or me, develop feelings for each other and ascend to the God Realm together, he can merge another fragment of your soul with yours, restoring you to 'the you of the past,' which is Princess Tang."

"What about me?!" Wang Dong'er asked, her voice trembling with tears.

“You…” Su Wen remained silent.

But that explains everything.

The personality belonging to "Wang Dong'er" will completely disappear.

Or, to put it another way, their nests were usurped.

"Waaaaah~" Wang Dong'er couldn't hold back any longer. She threw herself into Su Wen's arms and burst into tears, clenching her fair fists and pounding Su Wen's chest.

Su Wen sighed softly.

He gently patted Wang Dong'er's head.

But suddenly a murmur of dissent came from the side.

"Scumbag!"

"They'll deny everything after they've done it!"

"He definitely initiated the breakup. The girl didn't want to, so he said, 'I only see you as a sister.' It's the same old routine..."

"Such a beautiful girl, to start something and then abandon it will surely be punished by heaven!"

Su Wen turned his head blankly and saw several outer court disciples pointing and whispering about him.

Ok? ? ?
He glanced again at the girl in his arms, who was crying with tears streaming down her face, and his lips twitched slightly.

You know what, they really do look alike.

After all, it is said that many couples start their relationship at Poseidon Lake and end it here, which is also known as a romantic spot for couples.

He hurriedly and frantically comforted Wang Dong'er.

They then left hand in hand.

……

A week later.

Outside Shrek Academy.

Many disciples dressed in white, yellow, purple, and black outer court uniforms were chattering about something. Of course, there were also several inner court disciples acting as leaders, looking at the group of junior students with an air of composure and old age.

Especially the freshmen wearing white clothes, they've only been in school for a few days, and the novelty hasn't worn off yet.

"Sister Nan, which teacher is leading the team this time?"

A girl dressed in black outer courtyard disciple robes approached and spoke. With her striking features, she would have been an exceptionally handsome man if she were a boy, but since she was a girl, she possessed a more heroic air.

"I don't know." Jiang Nannan shook her head.

Her beautiful pink eyes seemed lost in thought. Her martial spirit was the Soft-Boned Charming Rabbit, which naturally made her taller than most girls, attracting the covetous eyes of some men. However, in her heart, one figure held a firm place.

That incident from back then was etched into her heart.

Like a divine intervention, he took her hand in the dimly lit little room. Though it was small, it gave her unprecedented warmth and hope.

However, he is now making great strides in the inner courtyard.

It is said that her strength has reached a level that she can only look up to, and even Dean Yan was slightly defeated.

"Little Bai, you're so fierce, aren't you afraid you won't have a man to marry you in the future?" an inner court disciple dressed in red and white robes teased with a smile.

"Hmph! Mind your own business!" White snorted coldly, crossing his arms, though his imposing manner had weakened slightly.

After all, the person on the other end is a senior from the inner academy.

Shrek Academy values ​​strength above all else. Currently, there are only about sixty or seventy inner court disciples, almost all of whom are Soul Kings or higher. She is only level forty, and there is still some time before the inner court assessment.

Not to mention, these inner court disciples also served as "team leaders," making this trip a kind of inner court mission.

The inner court is a circle, and even among geniuses, there are different levels. Since they are all disciples of the inner court, they will naturally treat each other as equals. However, when dealing with a bunch of newbies from the outer court, they will naturally be more arrogant and contemptuous.

In fact, among the outer disciples who dared to come over and speak, she was the only one.

Even the older disciples dressed in black didn't dare to come up and speak to him.

In their eyes, these senior students from the inner academy were still quite sacred and powerful.

After all, only those who have experienced it know the harsh conditions for the inner court selection. Most of them have no hope of entering, and those who can enter are all top-notch monsters in their grade. Not to mention these inner court seniors, who have been studying for who knows how long, beating them is as easy as pulling up radishes.

“Zhang Leng.” Jiang Nannan frowned slightly and glanced at the man.

"Hahaha...just kidding." Zhang Leng clicked his tongue.

"Sister Nannan is the best! She's so gentle and beautiful. If I were a man, I'd be fighting tooth and nail to get her," Bai Shi said, tugging at Jiang Nannan's arm and acting coquettishly.

"You..." Jiang Nannan sighed softly, a gentle look flashing in her eyes.

White isn't from a poor family. Of course, the number of poor students in the entire Shrek Academy can be counted on one hand. Due to the system, this is essentially a "noble academy" in disguise.

She comes from the Bai family, possesses the Soul-Breaking Spear martial spirit, and is considered a young lady of high birth, but she still likes to pester her...

The two had a good relationship.

She was also happy to defend this junior sister.

"But I heard that Senior Sister is leading the team this time?" The boy beside Zhang Leng casually wiped a soul-guided gun.

"Yes... Senior Sister has already been promoted to Vice Dean of the Martial Soul Department, and must have already broken through to the Title Douluo level. Alas, with our talents, the future is probably very difficult."

"It's difficult... but not necessarily," the handsome young man said calmly.

“Alright, I admit it’s easier for you Soul Guidance Department members…” Zhang Ling shrugged. “After all, the Soul Power boosted by drugs is far inferior to that of traditional Soul Masters like us who take it one step at a time.”

"Tch, do you even know about the cooperation plan between the Forging Department and the Soul Guidance Department? You bumpkin." The handsome young man scoffed, not backing down at all: "The Soul Guidance Department these days is not what it used to be. This Soul Guidance Enchantment Spear in my hand is made of rare metals that have been forged a thousand times. It's a level five Soul Guidance weapon, yet it can unleash a full-force attack comparable to a Soul Emperor. Do you think you can block the power of my spear with your life?"

"At worst, we'll just go back to the Soul Arena and fight!"

"Let's fight then! Who's afraid of who!"

"..."

Seeing the two Soul King senior students from the Inner Academy about to draw their swords, Bai's voice became much softer.

His eyes were full of curiosity.

Combining forging with soul tools?
Can it really unleash such terrifying power?
Meanwhile, many outer court disciples who were not far away also quieted down when they saw this scene, looking slightly nervous, for fear that the two inner court seniors would start fighting.

Jiang Nannan, however, was used to it and sighed helplessly.

That's how the Soul Guidance System and the Martial Soul System work.

The argument started in the outer courtyard, then moved to the inner courtyard, and then to the teachers.

These two are even in the same grade...

"What's the noise about?"

A leisurely voice rang out, tinged with a hint of mockery.

"None of your business!" Zhang Leng had a short temper, and since the voice didn't sound like a junior girl but rather a junior boy, he immediately swore.

To mediate a fight, you need to have the strength to back it up.

If Jiang Nannan were to speak up, they would most likely give her some face, but what right do you have to act as a peacemaker for some junior who just appeared out of nowhere?

"Tsk, what a fiery temper." Su Wen said with a smile, taking a step forward that caused ripples in the surrounding space, as if he had directly torn apart the void and arrived through the air.

Beside her stood Wang Dong'er, with her loose, light blue hair, curiously observing her surroundings.

"hiss……"

"Su, Senior Su!!"

It would be normal for outer court disciples not to recognize Su Wen, but inner court disciples... apart from a very few who are stationed outside year-round to complete missions, how could they not recognize Su Wen...?

This handsome face has long been displayed at the forefront of the monument for people to admire.

All that's left is for him to die, have a statue made of him, and he'll become a legendary figure, worthy of being included in history books...

Zhang Leng was sweating profusely and shivering.

"You don't recognize my voice?" Su Wen asked in surprise.

“I didn’t participate in the special training…” Zhang Leng’s throat bobbed as he said nervously, “I, I just went home a few days ago.”

In plain terms, he's gone into hiding.

After all, who could withstand Su Wen's grueling training? There were quite a few inner court disciples who were unwilling to participate.

"That's all." Su Wen stretched.

We can't just make things difficult for him because of this, can we?
He is not a narrow-minded person.

"By the way, Zhang Leng... after this mission, you should report to the Poseidon Pavilion Surveillance Corps Special Training Class," Su Wen said leisurely.

"I see you have good potential; you're a rare talent."

Zhang Leng wanted to cry but had no tears.

Totally spicy!

The boy beside him appeared calm, but large beads of sweat covered his forehead; in fact, he had just been about to retort to Su Wen as well…

However, they beat us to it.

After all, the inner court disciples of the Soul Guidance Department also join the Supervisory Committee, and are directly under this person's jurisdiction...

In other words, even if the Heavenly King himself came, it wouldn't make a difference.

You can't get him away.

"Soul Guidance System?" Su Wen gestured with his lips, indicating the Soul Guidance Gun in the latter's hand.

"Oh, oh." The boy swallowed hard and quickly handed it over.

"It has both fire and wind attributes?" Su Wen asked with slight surprise. "Using wind to control fire... it's a bit like a flamethrower, but with bullets loaded with power. It seems to have been modeled after a fixed-mount soul tool."

"The formation has two cores, one fire and one wind, but the connection is a bit rough, and there is some loss in the transmission of soul power. However, it is not bad for you."

"You understand this?" the boy asked in surprise.

Isn't this... the vice dean of the forging department?

And it's supposedly from the Martial Soul system?!
How could I see right through him at a glance?

"Hehe, the first ice and fire enchanted sniper rifle was crafted by me. Do you think I recognize it?" Su Wen tossed the gun to him and said with a smile.

"You forged that?!" The boy was speechless.

He had the good fortune to see that soul tool once. It was borrowed from somewhere by Director Hongchen for their teaching. It contained more than a dozen array cores, all of which were level nine. Just looking at it made him dizzy, let alone carving it completely.

"You, you are a level nine Soul Master?"
