Douluo Continent: Evil Flames Burn the Heavens, a Blessed Start with Many Children

Du Weilun watched Lu Heqiu's departing figure.

The anger on his face vanished instantly.

He tapped the pen tip lightly on the paper, looking completely different from before. He looked towards the inner courtyard, put away what he was holding, and walked towards the inner courtyard.

What Lu Heqiu didn't know was that after returning from the last soul ring hunt, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion had placed him and Ma Xiaotao in Shrek Academy's key training positions.

Every word and action was being watched by the Sea God Pavilion.

Du Weilun, as a mere director, has no say in Lu Heqiu's eligibility to enter or leave the academy; all of this must be decided by Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department.

Not long after.

Du Weilun revealed all of Lu Heqiu's thoughts. Yan Shaozhe sat in his office with an uncontrollable smile on his face. He had never expected Lu Heqiu to make such a decision.

Who do you think is the most promising young talent he's eyeing?

"Jiang Nannan?"

"Although her Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul is the same as that of an ancestor from ten thousand years ago, her talent... it will be difficult for her to even become a Title Douluo in the future. It mainly depends on what opportunities she will encounter in the future. Judging from her current performance..."

"The value of training is not high."

"Is there anything else?"

Before Du Weilun could speak, Yan Shaozhe had already mentioned a name, clearly showing his great interest in Lu Heqiu's teaching and treating him as a key disciple to be cultivated.

"Yes, He Qiu only mentioned this name. However, even he values ​​this one. I don't think there's any need to listen to the rest of the students in Class 1."

"I doubt..."

"He Qiu will bring people from other grades over in a couple of days. His judgment... it's hard to say!"

"Should I keep a close eye on it?"

Du Weilun made no secrets from Yan Shaozhe. He knew what was important and what was not. This was no joke. If Lu Heqiu were to perish outside, it could very well lead to Shrek Academy lacking a leader among its younger generation for the next twenty years.

Thus...it will affect Shrek's future!

"Need not."

Yan Shaozhe waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to follow up on this matter any further.

"The teacher in charge has assigned Ma Xiaotao and Lu Heqiu to lead the team, and Elder Xuan and I will secretly protect them. This kid is quite bold, so let's send him out to gain some experience!"

"These two students will definitely stay in the academy in the future. This is a required course for them. It's better to come sooner rather than later. Let them lead the team themselves, so that we don't have to arrange for senior students to lead them slowly in the future."

"That's the decision."

Yan Shaozhe had ulterior motives. Besides letting the two train, his more important goal was to use this opportunity to ease their relationship. If the two could really become a couple, it would not only make their cultivation speed faster, but it would also become a beautiful story in the martial soul system in the future.

With the cooperation of husband and wife, the martial spirit system can grow faster in the future, and Shrek Academy can go further!

......

Three days later.

Lu Heqiu now has several more students around him.

Just as Du Weiren had predicted, he couldn't find any more suitable students in Class 1, so he had to bring in Xu Sanshi, Bei Bei, and Tang Ya to make up the numbers.

Although Tang Ya's talent is relatively average, at least she can make up the number of people and look better.

Moreover.

If Tang Ya doesn't go, Bei Bei can't possibly go with her. Lu Heqiu is killing two birds with one stone; otherwise, bringing only two people would seem too perfunctory.

Ma Xiaotao stood in the crowd, her voluptuous figure immediately recognized by Lu Heqiu. Compared to last time, Ma Xiaotao wore a bright red veil this time to avoid being stared at by the group of junior students from the outer academy.

What she didn't expect was that the veil made her look even more beautiful, and her stunning figure attracted even more attention.

The moment she saw Lu Heqiu appear, she couldn't help but let out a cold snort, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Despite her dissatisfaction, this was her only chance to leave the inner courtyard recently. If she didn't accept it, she would have to keep cultivating by Elder Cai's side, which would be even more tedious for her, a fiery soul master.

If you go out, you'll still have a chance to fight Lu Heqiu and get revenge; if you don't go, you'll have nothing!

Du Weiren stood there and spoke to Lu Heqiu in a serious tone, giving him instructions.

"He Qiu!"

"This mission is simple. These students are looking for the fourth spirit ring, which only requires a spirit beast that is several thousand years old. Therefore, you are not allowed to enter the mixed zone or even the inner perimeter!"

"The outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest is sufficient to meet the needs of these students!"

"Don't be careless!"

Du Weilun did not reveal the secret that they would be secretly protected by the elders of the Sea God Pavilion on this trip. Yan Shaozhe had already said that this Soul Hunt was a training exercise for the two of them, to cultivate their experience.

Moreover, both Lu Heqiu and Ma Xiaotao have fiery tempers. If they knew that an elder from the Sea God Pavilion would be present on this trip, who knows what kind of trouble Lu Heqiu might cause!

"I understand, Director Du. Don't worry."

"This time, we'll only stay on the outer perimeter; we'll absolutely avoid the mixed zone and the inner perimeter!"

Lu Heqiu nodded slightly in agreement. He just wanted to find opportunities to spend more time with Jiang Nannan, not to go looking for death, given that so many people were entering the mixed zone.

If they encounter another 50,000-year-old soul beast, he'll definitely be able to escape on his own, but these students will be in real trouble.

Ma Xiaotao stood to the side without saying a word. She was only the deputy leader on this trip, while Lu Heqiu was the real leader. In name, she was indeed supposed to follow Lu Heqiu's orders.

The twelve-person team set off in a grand procession under the watchful eyes of Du Weiren. Lu Heqiu stood at the very front, leading the group of students who were going to hunt for the fourth ring, while Jiang Nannan and the others followed beside Ma Xiaotao, surrounded at the innermost part.

"Beibei, why do you think Teacher Lu asked us to go together?"

"We don't seem to need this kind of experience, do we?"

"Besides, we're not in his class."

Tang Ya's eyes grew brighter and brighter as she spoke, even speculating about things that were completely impossible.

"Could it be that Teacher Lu wants us to go over there, observe the Tang Clan's methods, and then decide whether we want to join?"

Beibei didn't hold out much hope, but seeing Tang Ya's excited expression, she still comforted her, saying, "It's possible, so we have to do our best this time."

"Your soul power is approaching level 30. If you can break through during this trial, we can ask Teacher Lu to help you find a thousand-year soul ring in the outer area."

Tang Ya nodded emphatically. In her view, this was an opportunity given to her by Lu Heqiu. If she could seize it, she would have the possibility of revitalizing the Tang Clan in the future!

Hearing their conversation from not far away, Ma Xiaotao immediately poured cold water on their enthusiasm.

"Impossible."

"Lu Heqiu loves freedom so much that it's impossible for him to join any sect, not even the Tang Sect. After all, he wouldn't show any respect when looking at the statue of Tang San's ancestor."
