Douluo Continent: Conflict descends, gods are slain and gods ascend!

Na'er's departure did indeed make Xu Xiaoyan cry bitterly. Fortunately, Na'er mentioned in her letter that she would come back to find Xu Xiaoyan after she awakened her martial soul, which gave the little girl some hope and eased her sadness considerably.

But Yun Chen knew very well that Na'er might never come back after leaving. Xu Xiaoyan's expectations would gradually fade away as she waited. She didn't know what would happen when they met again.

Early in the morning, Yun Chen, Xu Xiaoyan, and Xu Xiaoyu were taken to Donghai Academy by the housekeeper. Today was the first day of school, and the freshmen arrived at the school with their luggage to begin their new campus life.

The dormitories for intermediate students at Donghai Academy are four-person rooms. When Yun Chen dragged his luggage into the dormitory, his roommates were already there. The three of them had already chosen their beds. Seeing Yun Chen arrive, they greeted him warmly: "You're the last one in our dormitory? Let me introduce you, my name is Zhang Yangzi, my martial soul is the Dark Illusionary Demon Eagle."

"Hello, my name is Yun Chen, and my main spirit is..." Yun Chen put down his luggage and replied.

"Your main spirit? Which part?" another person asked in confusion. "Oh, my name is Wei Xiaofeng, my spirit is the Clear Shadow Serpent, and I'm a two-ring Great Soul Master."

"Hello," Yun Chen responded first, then summoned his martial soul. A crystal formed from condensed blood appeared in his palm: "My martial soul is my own blood."

In this day and age, the original body martial soul is no longer as rare or difficult to distinguish as it was in ancient times. However, most original body martial souls are hands, feet, or various organs such as eyes and nose. They had never heard of a martial soul like Yun Chen's, which was blood.

"That's a pretty rare martial spirit. We'll be roommates from now on. If anyone bullies you at school, I'll stand up for you!" Wei Xiaofeng said proudly.

He was arrogant, possessing a cultivation level of twenty-three at the age of nine, and considered himself a genius. When he spoke, he naturally placed himself in a superior position.

Yun Chen simply smiled at this. Although he hadn't achieved his initial goal of reaching level 30 before enrolling, his current soul power cultivation of level 28-29 was probably the strongest among this year's freshmen.

Afterwards, Yun Chen got to know Wang Jinxi. He was a bit taciturn, but once they got to know each other, communication was not a problem.

……

As the sun set, the group finished tidying up their dorm room. Zhang Yangzi suggested, "We're almost done tidying up, shall we go to the cafeteria for lunch?"

"You guys go first, I have to go pick up my sister," Yun Chen said.

"You and your sister are starting school together? Then invite them to join us! We can't possibly not take care of your sister, can we?" Zhang Yangzi said with a smile, "This meal is on me!"

Yun Chen did not refuse, and the four of them left the dormitory together. However, when they passed one of the dormitories, a figure suddenly crashed through the door and flew out, startling the four of them.

"Good heavens, has a fight broken out?" Zhang Yangzi, who loved to join in the fun, poked his head out and looked into the dormitory room through the broken door.

Wei Xiaofeng was also quite interested and went over to take a look.

At this moment, two people in the dormitory are facing off, while another person is huddled by the bed, trembling with fear.

Wei Xiaofeng and Zhang Yangzi exchanged a glance, then looked at the chubby boy lying unconscious in the corridor: "He was ruthless enough; he must be quite strong."

"Hmm, but I don't think he's as good as Jin Xi, but he's still pretty impressive."

As Yun Chen walked past the door, he glanced inside. Seeing the two figures still facing off, he guessed who they were.

Tang Wulin's several encounters with Xie Xie were the initial catalyst for activating his Golden Dragon King bloodline. It was precisely because the Golden Dragon King bloodline had an increasingly significant impact on his body that he became worthy of Wu Changkong's attention. Otherwise, relying solely on the Blue Silver Grass, even as Tang San's son with the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul inheritance, he might very well have been overlooked in this era.

However, in his previous life, Yun Chen had read many analyses suggesting that Tang Wulin should have inherited the Clear Sky Hammer. It was just that due to the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, it was completely suppressed and unable to awaken.

However, in Yun Chen's view, the disadvantages of the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul are amplified even more under the current combat system of Battle Armor Masters. Even if he possesses the Clear Sky Hammer, it is impossible for him to have the same deterrent power as it did 20,000 years ago.

Seeing Yun Chen and Wang Jinxi preparing to leave, Zhang Yangzi and Wei Xiaofeng followed. After they left, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie started fighting again. However, this time their entanglement didn't last long before the arrival of the head teacher, Long Hengxu, who stopped them.

Yun Chen knew exactly what would happen next: all of them would be demoted, regardless of their talent, and sent to Class 5 of the first year.

In this respect, it can be said that Long Hengxu unintentionally helped Tang Wulin. If his teacher hadn't been Wu Changkong, Tang Wulin's Blue Silver Grass martial soul would have been completely ignored, let alone his outstanding performance in the promotion competition, which led to his selection for Class Zero in the first year.

After picking up Xu Xiaoyan, the group of five went to the cafeteria. Xu Xiaoyan's soft and gentle nature made Zhang Yangzi and the other two hesitant to speak loudly, afraid of startling the young girl. Zhang Yangzi even generously bought a Class A meal for everyone, leaving a good impression on Xu Xiaoyan.

The next day.

Yun Chen sat in the classroom of Class 1, Grade 1, listening to Ye Yingluo's opening remarks on the podium, and was already feeling drowsy.

After an unknown amount of time, just as Yun Chen was about to fall asleep on his desk, the classmate sitting behind him suddenly nudged him: "It's your turn to introduce yourself."

Coming to her senses, Yun Chen smiled and stood up, slowly introducing herself under Ye Yingluo's slightly unfriendly gaze.

Ye Yingluo on the podium was in a very bad mood. Her carefully prepared opening remarks had actually made this kid drowsy? This made her very unhappy, almost as much as when Wu Changkong ignored her.

Just as she was pondering whether to give Yun Chen a little hard time, a gasp suddenly rang out in the classroom of Class 1, Grade 1.

"You...you just said, what level is your soul power?" Ye Yingluo asked in surprise.

"Level 28, what's wrong?" Yun Chen asked back.

Hearing this definite answer, Ye Yingluo was genuinely surprised. The students' information had been distributed to Ye Yingluo after the class assignments, but she hadn't seen Yun Chen's soul power level in those files; it only recorded that he was a two-ring Great Soul Master. But this level of twenty-eight was truly astonishing. And Yun Chen was only nine years old!
