Douluo Continent: Not enough bloodline? Make up for it with brains

Chapter 144 The Learning Pace at Shrek Academy's Outer School (Please Subscribe!!!)

Class 1 of Grade 1 won a great victory.

This exchange match is destined to leave a strong mark on Shrek's history. The secondary professions all achieved a dominant victory at level five, and the team battles showed no signs of weakness throughout. It's hard to imagine that this was something that the first-year students, who are on average three years younger than the second-year students, could do.

You have to understand, this is Shrek Academy. Not to mention the first-year students who are the pride of heaven, aren't all the second-year students top geniuses in their year?

Of course, before entering Shrek Academy, and after entering Shrek Academy, I had to admit that I missed some lessons due to the first year's curriculum.

The mecha production in the first semester is so demanding that most students can't even focus on their soul power cultivation. Even Wu Siduo's soul power growth rate has started to slow down in the past few months. At most, she can only maintain the mecha production task and the development of her martial soul. As for soul power cultivation, she can only complete the minimum standard of training through meditation during her rest time each day.

To achieve her current level of cultivation, she had been steadily increasing her level by four levels per year since her Martial Soul Awakening. However, four months have passed, and her Soul Power level is still stuck at level 42.

Not to mention Wu Siduo, Xu Yuanming felt as busy as ever, but after arriving at the outer courtyard, the speed at which his soul power increased did indeed slow down.

Four months later, his soul power was still stuck at level 45.

Of course, soon.

He felt that he was certain he would break through to level 46 before his uncle returned with the paper spirit.

However, there are still two months until Xu Shengqun's return, which is equivalent to a promotion of one level every six months.

This demonstrates the pressure Shrek faces in its foreign language department.

The current sense of oppression is inevitable in order to obtain a one-word battle armor upon graduation.

If you don't upgrade your side hustle now, once your mindset is fixed, even if your brain works faster and you understand more basic principles, it will be difficult to make up your mind again and painfully change your established perceptions to learn many side hustles.

Why should education begin from a young age?

Same thing.

However, although the improvement of soul power was delayed because of the need to improve the secondary profession and lay the foundation for the battle armor, Shrek Academy did not relax its requirements for actual combat.

For example, in just a few months, several competitions have already been held.

The exchange competition was only for Xu Yuan and his group, but in the three months prior, Class 1 of Grade 1 had practical training sessions every week.

Seven days a week, more than 100 students are divided into seven groups, and each group takes practical lessons on a seven-day basis. Wu Changkong conducts practical teaching continuously.

It's an improvement for students, and it's also an improvement for teachers.

The day after the exchange competition ended.

Xu Yuan was summoned to Wu Changkong's office.

"I have submitted my application for the exchange match with the third-year students, but based on Mr. Cai's attitude, I estimate that it will likely be necessary for the first and second-year students to join forces with the third-year students for the exchange match. We won this exchange match, so it is up to us which second-year students to invite to join the participating teams."

Wu Changkong looked at Xu Yuan and said, "The seven of you are already very good, but without your full power, you still lack direct output. Wu Lin is ultimately a Soul Master, and he barely managed to unleash his power with the Bloodthirsty Red Bean Bun technique, relying on his bloodline strength. Wu Siduo's Martial Soul Fusion Skill also only has a short duration. So I suggest that you invite Yuanen Yehui to join the team, as well as Le Zhengyu. His Holy Angel is indeed powerful in terms of offensive capabilities, but without Gao Yang's support, he is indeed a bit inferior to the three of them."

Xu Yuan nodded.

"Teacher Wu, I understand. I will try to reach out to them and ask for their opinions."

"I remember Wu Lin should have had contact with Yuan En Ye Hui," Wu Chang Kong said. "They were both work-study students."

"I understand, Teacher Wu."

After leaving Wu Changkong's office, Xu Yuan found the dormitory for work-study students.

He never understood the work-study program.

Being unconventional is understandable, but why should being unconventional make you suffer?

The dormitory conditions for work-study students are truly excellent.

Dirty and messy.

Of course, it can be cleaned up and won't be dirty, but messiness and disorder are unavoidable, which is a limitation imposed by the basic conditions of the work-study student dormitory.

The key issue is that we have to share an apartment!

It's hard to imagine why such a bizarre setting would exist.

Xu Yuan arrived here and saw Xie Xie.

"Xie Xie?"

Xie Xie, who was secretly peeking into Yuan En Ye Hui's room, was startled and turned around to find that it was Xu Yuan.

"The class monitor?"

Where is Wu Lin?

"Wu Lin went out. It seems he went to the Blacksmith Association, not the one at our school, but a branch of an outside association."

"Okay, it's alright if he's not here. I mainly came to find Yuan En Ye Hui. Teacher Wu said you guys are quite familiar with Yuan En Ye Hui. Do you know where she is right now?"

"what?"

"Aren't you familiar with each other?"

"Oh, we know each other well. She lives over there. I'll take you to her."

With that, Xie Xie led Xu Yuan to the outside of Yuanen Yehui's dormitory.

"Um, class monitor, you call her yourself. I just remembered I have something to do."

Xie Xie slipped away, but Xu Yuan didn't pay any attention and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

"I."

"What is it?"

Yuan Enhui opened the door.

At this moment, she is dressed in women's clothing.

During yesterday's battle, she disguised herself as a man to avoid attracting strange looks due to the huge contrast when she used the Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul.

Yuan En Ye Hui, dressed in women's clothing, was stunning. She was extremely beautiful, with a slender figure, fair skin, and even a pale complexion. She had red hair, black eyes, and a somewhat pitiful appearance.

"The exchange match isn't over yet. I'd like to invite you to join our team and participate in the exchange match against the third graders."

Third grade?

Yuan Enhui stared wide-eyed at Xu Yuan in surprise.

Are you guys sick in the head?

Should we continue to challenge ourselves?

"What's wrong? Don't you believe us?"

Yuan Enhui nodded: "That's right, I don't believe it."

She thought for a moment and then added a further explanation.

"You have no idea how big the gap is between the second and third grades. We've only just entered the second grade and haven't had the next three years of training yet."

"The experience gained in the first year has given our top students the basic ability to create battle armor. We will spend the next three years creating battle armor."

"Moreover, my combat skills have been honed to perfection. The upcoming practical lessons will focus on maintaining the feeling of combat, so the pressure won't be as great as it was in the first year. There's also room to cultivate my soul power. In three years, taking me as an example, becoming a Soul King is a piece of cake."

"And Duan Hunxiao, he can also become a Soul King within three years."

"Even with the most conservative estimate, I am confident that I can make at least six pieces of battle armor by the time I reach the third year. Under normal circumstances, eight or even nine pieces would not be a problem."

Yuan Enhui thought that since he had recently opened up the Tang Wulin channel, obtaining rare metals might be easier, and he might have a chance to create a complete battle armor within three years.

If someone in the current third grade had met the requirement of not lacking rare metals back then, perhaps there would already be a complete one-word battle armor master by now.
