Douluo: The Peerless Dragon Shakes the Universe.

Chapter 71 Shrek Inner Court

Zhou Yi glanced casually at the hibiscus beside her, and her mood became even more cheerful.

What a brainless idiot, trying to steal a class teacher's job.

Can you beat me?

No longer looking at Mu Jin, Zhou Yi began to scan the students on the field like she was inspecting troops, and then, refreshed and energetic, she selected the offensive and control types from her class.

She first selected Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao into her class.

After all, no matter how good someone else's students are, they've only just been acquired, and they're not as familiar as your own original students.

Zhou Yi pulled the excited Huo Yuhao into the class's group, but she felt somewhat dissatisfied.

It was she who facilitated the connection between Huo Yuhao and Fan Yu, and they agreed that Huo Yuhao would become a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Academy. However, Du Weilun beat them to it and secured a place at the Martial Soul Academy.

Although she is a teacher at the Martial Soul Academy, in essence, she is only the wife of Fan Yu, the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Academy.

Zhou Yi decided to give Huo Yuhao a good talking-to later, but she needed to get him away first.

Then, she lowered her gaze and began searching for Hibiscus's most outstanding student.

Suddenly, Zhou Yi frowned.

After scanning the area, I couldn't find Jiang Shuo, who was ranked first among the freshmen.

I looked again, but still nothing.

Based on her previous impression of Jiang Shuo's arrogance and conceit, Zhou Yi immediately had a guess.

They must have run away.

A surge of anger welled up inside Zhou Yi, and her brows furrowed.

No student has ever dared to be so arrogant under her nose!

They are utterly arrogant!

It seems I really need to hone my skills.

Zhou Yi snorted coldly and turned to choose other people.

……

Someone has indeed left the assessment area and is heading towards Shrek Academy's inner courtyard in the center of Poseidon Lake.

So he was completely unaware that he had fallen into the hands of the old maid Wang Dong mentioned.

But even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care.

Jiang Shuo had just arrived at Shrek Square.

Two figures suddenly caught up.

Looking at the two Shrek Academy prodigies in front of him, Jiang Shuo's brow twitched.

"What's up?"

Before Zhang Lexuan could speak, who was still hesitating, Ma Xiaotao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"Do you remember me?"

Jiang Shuo's lips twitched; he hadn't expected the Flame Witch to recover so quickly.

"So what if I remember, and so what if I don't?"

Ma Xiaotao's eyebrows twitched, and she tried hard to ignore the flippancy in her tone.

"I want to fight you again."

Zhang Lexuan had no choice but to speak, "Xiao Tao..."

But before the senior sister of the inner courtyard could say more, Ma Xiaotao shook her head and interrupted her.

"My senior sister knows what she's doing and won't act impulsively."

She then turned to the dark-haired boy in front of her, "I really want to have a real fight with you."

Jiang Shuo sneered and stepped over.

"You think you can just hit me if you want? Who do you think you are?"

Seeing his ruthlessness, Ma Xiaotao felt a burning resentment, but she had to suppress it and lower her voice, saying again:

"As a Soul Emperor, I am the only person in the Inner Academy qualified to fight you."

"Senior Sister, you're still far from reaching that level, and the same goes for other Soul Douluos and Soul Saints... You can't expect that weakling Dai Yueheng to fight you in a Soul battle, can you?"

"That day I sensed an aura that didn't belong to a soul skill. Was it a combat technique created by your family?"

"It seems it's not fully formed yet, is it? I'll help you hone it! You don't need to hold back at all; any deaths or injuries are none of your concern."

Jiang Shuo paused slightly.

The Sky-Splitting Spear was his most frequently used technique.

The power of a soul skill is fixed, but the damage of this self-created combat skill can increase as his comprehension grows, theoretically without any upper limit.

Moreover, the spear intent gleaned from the sea of ​​spears does not belong to any elemental attribute, and therefore is not included in the sequence of attribute counteraction.

Therefore, the intent of the spear even surpasses all current attributes.

To reach the "Breaking the Mountain" realm, one must hone one's spear intent; and to further hone one's spear intent, one must find someone to fight one's soul.

If he wants to create his own godhood in the future, he can't rely solely on spirit rings...

It seems like it's worth a try; after all, I've gotten a whetstone for free.

Jiang Shuo turned around and calmly looked directly at the woman with wine-red hair behind him.

"Can you handle playing every five days?"

Ma Xiaotao felt relieved and nodded, "Okay, five days is enough for me to suppress the evil fire once."

What she didn't say was that she could use that power, which didn't belong to any attribute, to dissipate the evil aura of the Phoenix Flame, and it wouldn't even take five days.

If we also stop cultivating and only fight, the original evil energy should not increase further.

Jiang Shuo thought for a moment, then turned to Zhang Lexuan standing to the side and said, "Let's fight on the Soul Arena in the inner courtyard. The outer courtyard might not be able to handle it."

Zhang Lexuan glanced at the young man in surprise, smiled, and nodded gently, "Young Master Jiang isn't as cold and arrogant as the rumors say."

"They also took into account the students from the School of Foreign Languages."

"You were originally going to the inner courtyard? How about I take you there?"

Jiang Shuo remained calm and composed. "Think what you want."

"But if Senior Zhang can lead the way, that would be perfect."

Zhang Lexuan smiled faintly, a slight curve to her lips.

Without saying anything more, he led the black-haired youth in front of him along a lakeside path to the inner courtyard.

And he pointed out the location of the Dianlou.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Jiang Shuo was thus able to successfully enter Shrek Academy's secret location.

Poseidon Island, located in the center of Poseidon Lake, is the location of the inner courtyard and is exceptionally large.

The island was shrouded in mist and rain, as if a layer of ethereal mist was floating around it.

A towering ancient tree soars into the sky, and its immense size can be clearly felt from any point on the island.

The architecture also differs from that of the Foreign Languages ​​Institute.

The building in front of Jiang Shuo was a giant pavilion-style building, at least thirty or forty stories high.

The height of each floor is between five and six meters.

Judging from the outside, each floor probably occupies more than a thousand square meters.

Jiang Shuo's initial pleasure at uncovering the secret was instantly dampened.

His brows were furrowed; just how many books did he have in his collection?

As soon as he entered the first floor, sure enough, a vast sea of ​​books suddenly appeared before his eyes.

The first layer alone has at least tens of thousands of them.

Jiang Shuo gasped, realizing that finding anything of value would be difficult.

Fortunately, perhaps due to the abundance of ancient books, the spiritual energy here is quite plentiful, even comparable to that of his Humble Administrator's Peak. Meditation here seems like a good option.

Moreover, when he came in, he saw the dining hall in the inner courtyard.

And, the Soul Battle Arena in the inner courtyard.

……

Zhou Yi was annoyed by the discovery.

It wasn't just that I didn't see someone when the classes were assigned.

Even though the assessment ended a month ago, she still hadn't even caught a glimpse of Jiang Shuo.

She even went to the dormitory to confront the person, only to be shocked to find that the bed was covered in dust.

So he returned, extremely annoyed once again.

……

Just like that, eight months passed in the blink of an eye.

Some senior students who had improved their skills and wanted to challenge Jiang Shuo found that the arrogant and conceited first-year student was nowhere to be found in the entire outer academy.

The name Jiang Shuo seems to have completely disappeared from the School of Foreign Languages.

All that remains are a bunch of unbelievable rumors.

Not to mention them, even Zhou Yi was in the same boat, her anger accumulating for eight whole months with nowhere to vent it.

She didn't get to see Jiang Shuo until the end of the semester.

Wang Dong was equally puzzled. In the past few months, he had been able to hear much less news about a certain person.

Ning Tian went to ask and learned that the despicable guy had actually gone to the inner courtyard to torture those people.

Jiang Shuo indeed stayed in the inner courtyard with great enthusiasm.

The food is good, it's good for honing skills, it's full of spiritual energy, and it has countless classic books.

Why bother going back to the foreign language institute?

He didn't come to Shrek Academy to hang out with the freshmen.

He successfully spent those eight months turning twelve, but unfortunately, he did it alone.

Even Jiang Shuo himself only vaguely remembered a few days ago that he hadn't celebrated his birthday.

The solitude and diligence resulted in a surge in strength.

The Heaven-Splitting Spear Technique successfully reached the second level, the Mountain-Breaking Realm.

His soul power has also improved considerably.

But Jiang Shuo himself couldn't say exactly how much it had increased.

During the freshman assessment, he was in the latter half of the 39th class, and he reached that threshold not long after.

However, even without acquiring a soul ring, soul power accumulated automatically.

Um... I have something to tell you all. This book will be available for purchase this Friday.

It's definitely a happy thing that it's going to be published, because all the hard work these days is finally starting to pay off. I'm a very slow writer, and it takes me more than ten hours a day to come up with ideas, put pen to paper, and proofread. Now I'm a bit mentally exhausted and have backaches, hahaha.

The author has truly been single-mindedly focused on writing this book, oblivious to everything else... so I really hope everyone can support the first subscription! Please!

I'm also setting a goal: five chapters when it goes live on Friday!
