Douluo Continent: Becoming a God of Magic Starting with Your Martial Soul

When Wang Yan heard that Zhou Yi had resigned from her position as deputy head teacher because she felt guilty about her inappropriate teaching methods, she was shocked.

Even more shockingly, the person who took over Zhou Yi's position as deputy head teacher was none other than Zhang Lexuan, the chief disciple of the inner courtyard.

At that moment, he felt a burning sensation in his body, as the homeroom teacher.

He was, after all, just a Soul King; how could he possibly allow a Soul Douluo to hold a secondary position?

When he approached Zhang Lexuan to communicate, Zhang Lexuan showed no intention of taking the lead.

"Teacher Wang, my teaching experience is still limited, so I will have to trouble you with the daily teaching tasks for the class. I can only provide some guidance to the students in terms of practical skills."

"Teacher Zhang is too modest. This is my job, it's no trouble at all!" Wang Yan was surprised by Zhang Lexuan's approachable manner, which was far less domineering than Zhou Yi's. He couldn't help but feel even more respect for her. "With your guidance in practical application, these children will definitely make rapid progress."

……

In the subsequent teaching process, Zhang Lexuan did indeed, as she had said before, not interfere at all with Wang Yan's theoretical courses.

When it came to practical courses, Zhang Lexuan changed her usual gentle image and adopted the demeanor of a strict teacher.

What puzzled her was that even though her standards were already quite strict, these students always managed to complete them very well.

For example, she would criticize and point out every hesitation, every mistake in judgment and decision-making, and even problems with the trainees' movements and force exertion methods without any mercy during actual combat exercises.

But these criticisms seemed to motivate the trainees. Not only did they not complain once, but they also became even more energetic, working harder just to meet the standards she set and receive a word of praise.

In just one month, she witnessed her students' rapid improvement, and an unprecedented sense of accomplishment welled up within her.

Zhang Lexuan: It seems that not only in cultivation, but also in the education field, I can gain a good reputation.

During this process, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but recall what Zhou Yi had said to him when she removed her mask in front of him after he became a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department.

"As you can see, my appearance isn't particularly intimidating, which is why I'm disguised. I have my own teaching philosophy..."

Cola Xuan is even more beautiful, and she is gentle in her daily life. She has never used her cultivation level to suppress others.

Huo Yuhao respected Zhou Yi, but felt more pressure from her, which forced him to cultivate relentlessly.

After Zhang Lexuan took over, the suffocating pressure disappeared, but cultivation was instead propelled by a completely different force.

Although the daily combat training was still exhausting, he didn't know why he was even more motivated.

After leaving the simulated training ground, Zhang Lexuan, as usual, pointed out the problems that many people encountered during simulated combat.

However, compared to the beginning, the number of problems she pointed out today has decreased significantly, while praise and encouragement have gradually increased.

"Wang Dong, it's good that you're confident in your abilities, but unless absolutely necessary, going all in and fighting the enemy is the most foolish thing to do."

"Cao Jinxuan, don't stand still when you unleash your soul skill, or you'll become a sitting duck."

"Huang Chutian, don't use your head to attack the enemy!"

"..."

"Finally, I'd like to commend Dai Huabin, Lu Yi, and Huo Yuhao. The three of you were flawless this time, doing everything you could for your respective teams."

Zhang Lexuan pointed out all the problems, and although Dai Huabin was extremely tired, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on his proud face after hearing the praise.

Teacher Lexuan put her own name first!

As expected, I'm the one she values ​​most!

"Don't slack off after class. Make sure you soak yourselves in the medicinal bath for a while." After saying this, Zhang Lexuan dismissed the class. "Lu Yi, you stay behind."

Just as Lu Yi was about to respond, he felt as if he were being stared at by an unfriendly gaze, but when he looked around, he found nothing.

After all his classmates had left, Lu Yi first wiped the sweat from his brow with his sleeve, then summoned his wand and cast a cleansing spell on his clothes.

Now, he no longer hides his little spells from Zhang Lexuan, and Zhang Lexuan is used to it.

It was precisely because she realized Lu Yi's special status that she applied for the position of assistant class teacher.

Otherwise, if a regular teacher were present, Lu Yi would be too restrained when demonstrating his abilities, and how could he improve under such circumstances?

Privately, Lu Yi chuckled and reverted to his usual form of address: "Sister Le Xuan, what brings you here?"

Despite hearing this, Zhang Lexuan maintained her serious expression from the classroom.

"Lu Yi, unleash your martial spirit and attack me."

"Huh!" Lu Yi was completely bewildered by this unsolicited request. "Sister Le Xuan, it's not a good time for you to use your martial spirit right now, is it? What if—"

"Stop talking nonsense! You didn't get cocky just because you were praised in class, did you?" Zhang Lexuan interrupted Lu Yi directly. "Do you still need me to activate my Martial Soul at your current level?"

"That's true!"

Lu Yi nodded, neither denying it nor taking a step back.

"Stop! No need to retreat, attack from this distance."

"walk slowly!"

As Lu Yi summoned his magic wand, pointing the tip at Zhang Lexuan, he activated his remaining soul power while chanting a spell.

"Stup—"

"Snapped!"

With a flick of her finger, Zhang Lexuan sent her head, formed from soul power, striking Lu Yi's forehead with a crisp sound.

Lu Yi cried out "Ouch!" and quickly covered his head.

"Sister Lexuan, you didn't say you would fight back!" Lu Yi rubbed his reddened forehead and couldn't help but complain.

"continue!"

Zhang Lexuan didn't say much, but simply raised her hand to indicate that she would still fight back.

This time, Lu Yi turned on his serious mode, keeping a close eye on Zhang Lexuan's hand while also speeding up the casting of the spell.

However, the result remained largely unchanged. Before Lu Yi could even utter the incantation, Zhang Lexuan's concentrated soul power would strike his forehead, hands, and even his magic wand, interrupting his attack.

Until the very last time, Zhang Lexuan did not choose to interrupt, but instead slightly turned to the side to avoid it.

"Did you spot the problem?"

After repeating it more than ten times, Zhang Lexuan finally spoke slowly.

"I can tell!"

Lu Yi rubbed his reddened right hand, chuckled, and smoothly offered a compliment: "Sister Le Xuan is telling me not to challenge powerful opponents, otherwise I'll be dead before I even have a chance to launch an attack!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly, her beautiful eyes flashing with reproach: "Be serious!"

Seeing this, Lu Yi stopped joking: "My attack intention is obvious, and the wind-up time is long. At a distance of five meters, I simply don't have enough time to deal with a Soul Master who is faster than me."

Although Zhang Lexuan had never heard of the term "pre-rock," she understood its meaning and nodded slightly.

"It seems you are well aware of your weaknesses, but you haven't mentioned them all. The speed at which your attacks travels is such that even at this distance, someone above the Soul Emperor level can react to it."

Zhang Lexuan's words made Lu Yi fall into deep thought, but it wasn't over yet.

"Since you rely on these techniques, then find a way to conceal your intentions and improve your speed weakness. Otherwise, even if your cultivation level increases, your combat power will still be limited."

These words were undoubtedly telling Lu Yi that the opponents he could deal with would have their cultivation levels capped at or below the Soul Emperor level.

While casting speed can be improved through proficiency, increasing the projectile speed of spells is significantly more difficult.

After all, it was originally invented to deal with wizards and ordinary people, not soul masters.

Although Lu Yi has other ways to improve this weakness, the best way is still to find a way to improve the basic speed.

Otherwise, he might have to give up his ranged advantage and strengthen his ability to use spells in close combat.

At least at close range, no one can escape.

The thought of himself with a muscular physique, wielding a magic wand and stabbing an enemy in the face made Lu Yi feel a sense of unease.

If you can stab the enemy, why not just use a sword?

"Sister Lexuan!" Lu Yi's eyes were firm, his goal clear. "I'll find a way to solve this!"

Seeing Lu Yi's reaction, Zhang Lexuan smiled knowingly.

But then, the faint white light of the Sleeping Curse was emitted unintentionally and landed on her.

Unwittingly caught in the attack, Zhang Lexuan felt a wave of drowsiness mixed with dizziness wash over her.

But she quickly realized what was happening and used her powerful cultivation to withstand the sensation.

When she fully regained consciousness, Lu Yi was beaming with pride.

"Not bad, right, Sister Lexuan? You were dazed for a full five seconds!"

"You brat!"
