Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 214 The Real Shrek Academy

After their accommodations were assigned, the inner court teachers left them with a map of the inner court and then departed. Before leaving, they were told to report to the inner court teaching building first thing the next morning, where teachers would assign them classes.

The inner court disciples number less than a hundred, so they probably won't be divided into classes like the outer court disciples.

We'll have to wait and see tomorrow to find out the specifics.

I spent the night practicing meditation.

The next morning, as the sky began to lighten, it gradually turned a pale blue. A gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness. Ji Lin drew back the curtains of the cabin, letting the sunlight flood the entire room.

Looking out the window at the shimmering surface of Lake Poseidon, Ji Lin couldn't help but marvel at the charm of nature.

Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er followed the map to the inner courtyard canteen for breakfast. Their residence was on the west side of Poseidon Island, while the map showed that the canteen was on the east side of Poseidon Island. The two of them had to cross almost the entire Poseidon Island, passing many buildings along the way.

Ling Luochen was unaware that the two had entered the inner courtyard last night, and Ji Lin and the others did not see Ling Luochen this morning. Otherwise, with Ling Luochen leading the way, the two of them wouldn't have needed to study the map.

Along the way, they had already noted down several important buildings marked on the map.

The Inner Academy Inspection Pavilion is where you receive inspection missions. To graduate from the Inner Academy, there are three conditions: first, you must break through to level 60 Soul Emperor; second, you must pass the graduation assessment; and third, you must complete 30 inspection missions. Dai Yueheng once said that he had already completed 28 inspection missions.

I imagine they should have completed all their monitoring tasks and graduated successfully by now.

Then there is the inner courtyard library, which houses a large number of books about martial spirits, spirit beasts, and famous figures on the continent, many of which are even unique copies.

This is not the library that Wang Yan was rewarded with entry into, but a library that is open to inner court disciples.

Finally, there's the Inner Academy Battle Arena. Inner Academy disciples who win battles in the Battle Arena will receive Battle Points. In the Battle Arena, the color of the badge represents the rank: white, yellow, purple, black, red, and gold, representing six ranks. Each victory earns points, while defeats reduce points. Once a certain number of points are accumulated, the student will automatically level up. The academy stipulates that students must participate in Battle Arena at least three times a week, and only students who obtain a black badge are eligible to participate in the graduation assessment. Of course, completing inspection missions will also reward some points; the higher the difficulty of the inspection mission, the higher the point reward.

Points are very important to inner court disciples, so the Soul Arena is the most popular among them, with inner court disciples fighting there almost every day.

After walking for about half an hour, Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er arrived at the inner courtyard canteen. As soon as they entered the canteen, they smelled various aromas wafting out.

The inner courtyard canteen is very spacious, clean and luxurious. There is also a nutritionist standing at the canteen's food service window. This nutritionist will tailor a nutritious meal for each new inner courtyard student.

A nutritionist is someone who is familiar with and skilled at identifying and combining various precious natural ingredients.

We tailor meals to suit each student's individual needs, taking into account different cooking times, durations, and sequences.

Unlike the outer academy's cafeteria, which charges a fee, the inner academy not only has a dedicated nutritionist, but also provides a variety of high-end delicacies and precious ingredients free of charge to students.

Given Shrek Academy's size, supporting fewer than a hundred inner disciples wouldn't be a major blow, but it would still be a huge expense, with food alone costing an astronomical sum.

Therefore, the Inner Court is the true Shrek Academy. Outer Court disciples have to pay tuition, meal fees, and rental fees for simulated training grounds. Everything in the Outer Court is charged because it was established by the academy at the request of the three great empires. In the end, it is not Shrek Academy. The Inner Court is the true Shrek Academy.

Within the inner academy, all expenses are free; the academy pays to support the inner academy disciples. However, inner academy disciples do not receive any compensation for performing surveillance tasks; they only receive points.

Shrek Academy takes maintaining the stability of the continent as its mission and established the Shrek Inspection Group. Evil Soul Masters are their main targets, and many inner court disciples and teachers have paid the price for this.

This is also one of the reasons why there are so few people in the inner courtyard.

The inner court disciples and teachers have paid such a huge price, so they certainly deserve to enjoy all of this.

Compared to the empty dining hall, there were very few inner court disciples eating there. It seemed that Ji Lin and his companion had arrived late, and most of the students had already finished breakfast and left.

Ji Lin and his companion ate a bowl of plain porridge and a few meat buns for breakfast, but don't underestimate this bowl of porridge and buns.

The rice is Dragon Blood Rice, made by irrigating with dragon blood. Ji Lin often ate this kind of rice in the Star Luo Imperial Palace. Even ordinary nobles couldn't stand eating Dragon Blood Rice every day. The meat inside the buns is Earth Dragon Meat. Soul Masters can replenish their vital energy and strengthen their bodies by eating Earth Dragon Meat. In the outside world, a hundred-year-old Earth Dragon Meat costs fifty gold soul coins per kilogram. Shrek Academy is so extravagant that it is used to make bun fillings.

After breakfast, Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er went to the teaching building. The teaching building in the inner courtyard was a tall red building. There was a huge soul guidance screen at the entrance of the teaching building, which displayed the teaching content and teachers every day.

Inner Academy disciples have a lot of freedom; whether or not they attend classes is up to them. However, the annual Inner Academy assessment includes theoretical knowledge, and if they fail the assessment, they will regret it.

The Soul Guidance Screen displayed today's lesson as Control System Theory, and the instructor was Han Ruoruo.

Just then, Chu Qingtian appeared at the classroom door. He also saw Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er. In particular, the way he looked at Wang Qiu'er showed a hint of lingering fear. Clearly, Wang Qiu'er had given him a good lesson in yesterday's assessment.

However, he still greeted them generously, saying, "Good morning, junior brother Ji Lin and junior sister Wang Qiu'er."

After saying that, he looked at Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er's hands clasped together, blinked, and asked, "What's going on with you two?"

Ji Lin raised their clasped hands and said, "Good morning, senior. Can't you tell? We're a couple."

Chu Qingtian's lips twitched, and he said incredulously, "You two are dating at such a young age? So I was beaten up by you two in turn yesterday?"

Ji Lin said gloatingly, "Who told you to be so lucky, senior?"

Upon hearing Chu Qingtian's words, Wang Qiu'er, who had been keeping a cold expression, softened her gaze towards him and politely replied, "Good morning, senior."

Ji Lin looked at Wang Qiu'er with surprise; this was the first time he had ever seen Wang Qiu'er so polite.

This little princess, who is pampered by the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest, never cares about human etiquette.

Chu Qingtian glanced at the information on the soul guidance screen and exclaimed in surprise, "Senior Sister Han is teaching today! We can't miss it!"
