Douluo's self-disciplined soul beast
Chapter 370: This class of students is not easy to lead.
"It seems that Dean Flanders took me there." No one has mentioned this issue before, but now it seems that it is really the case. It is just a habit that makes it like this...
"I began to suspect that there is something wrong with this dean..." Xiao Wu couldn't help but suspect that there was something wrong with the dean's brain circuit after looking at the other party. Habits come naturally. Ma Hongjun was obviously used to this kind of life, even if Now that it’s broken, I don’t really want to change it.
At this time, Flender sneezed, and then looked at Zao Wou-ki.
"I said what are you doing? These are all flesh wounds. A few large sausages should be enough to recover. Are you still standing behind me because your legs are shaking? Straighten up your waist and don't embarrass yourself in front of outsiders. "
"Shut up Flender, don't let her recognize me, I can't run like this now." Flender and Zhao Wuji saw someone in the office after they came back, Flender recognized him, it was The former big benefactor, just when he was going to show some good performance to see if there is any benefit to follow, but found that Zhao Wuji was timid.
"Alright Dean Flender, don't make things difficult for him. After all, he and I are old acquaintances. You have to thank me for coming to be your teacher. Say yes, Fudo Ming Wang Zhao Wuji , Don’t you want to say hello when you see an old friend?”
"I said, grandma, our accounts should be settled... You chased me and beat me up for months."
It was Xiaotong who went back and forth, and he was also the one who caused Zao Wou-ki the most psychological shadow. He couldn't beat him, and he couldn't run away.
Thinking of last night's experience, Zao Wou-ki suddenly had a very ominous premonition.
"There shouldn't be any of your juniors among those little guys!" Last night showed Haotian Douluo's powerful punches and kicks, followed by Xiao Wu's series of soft skills, which had already left a deep impression on him. , if he comes again, he won't have to stand, he will just be a patient.
"I really don't have this one, don't worry, I never hold grudges, I will avenge them on the spot." If Zhao Wuji hadn't had a painful experience before, maybe he would have believed it, but there are indeed no her descendants.Some of them are even older than her, such as a certain 10-year-old rogue rabbit, and she came back and forth just to find Zhu Zhuqing to give some things, which was her cultivation method for the second half of the year compiled by Zhu Qinluo.
It's just that I heard the familiar screams and the familiar breath of soul power, so I came to take a look. It seems that the memory she left behind is still deep enough.
After Xiaotong left, Flender looked at Zhao Wuji.
"Is this also your enemy back then?"
"It's not... but it's not friendly either. I took on a bodyguard mission back then, and she was the one who came to assassinate her. I had a fight because my soul skills found her."
"Strong strength?"
"She's as strong as a monster. She punched me 20 meters away. She's also very vindictive and only beat me for several months... Now she's probably even stronger."
"Sure enough, none of the people in the Tianyao Sect is simple." He knows Zhao Wou-ki's ability. Now his soul power is two levels higher than Zhao Wou-ki's, but if the two of them fight, he is not Zao Wou-ki's opponent. Hitting Zao Wou-ki in the air is enough to show the opponent's strength.
"Is she from the Tianyao Sect? Fortunately, I didn't completely offend her..."
"In short, none of the students in this batch are easy to deal with. The people from the Haotian Douluo, the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, the Tianyao Sect, and the big powers are almost all here... You can continue to recover from your injuries, and I will prepare for them. It’s time for class, let’s start with the little princess of the Qibao Glazed Sect, she is the more difficult to deal with.”
Tang Hao meant to teach him well, his actions were more to make the opponent pay attention to Tang San, and the meaning of Tian Yaomen was not to care too much, only Ning Fengzhi's request was the most difficult to handle.
-------------------------------------
On the other side, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun also brought the newcomers to the cafeteria, truly letting them know what clear soup is without water.
"Is this the quality of your food? Don't you even have an egg in the morning?"
"This... the college's financial situation is not good, and the dean doesn't like imperial funding, so this is basically the situation. We usually settle our meals in the town or the nearby village." Facing the questioning of the three-eyed Jin Ni Dai Mubai explained, after all, this is the situation.
"So if you want to eat better...you have to go back to the village, right?"
"Not necessarily, ladies, would you like to try two sausages?"
"Oscar, go aside. I have warned you not to sell sausages in the academy. Do you want to try to recite the soul spell?" Although soul spells are necessary for food-type soul masters to produce food, the contextual There is no way to be ambiguous, at least no one will eat Oscar's sausage as a meal, even if it tastes really good.
"That's right, Boss Dai. Why don't you go to that restaurant? The twins are working there, and the barbecue is pretty good." Ma Hongjun still has research on food.
"Twins? You have really enjoyed your life in the past few years, and you have even played this trick."
Before Dai Mubai could reply, Zhu Zhuqing's voice sounded, she went to the place for morning exercises a little far away, so she came here a little late, and Ning Rongrong was the last one to arrive here, and it just happened to be heard It was Ma Hongjun's words.Ma Hongjun clearly felt a ray of murderous intent coming from Dai Mubai's eyes.
"Listen to my explanation..."
"No need to explain, you have your choice, I have my path, why should I interfere with your private life when you and I have no more connection?"
The situation became a little awkward for a while, Ma Hongjun chose to drink porridge to resolve his embarrassment, and for a while the only sound in the room was his sniffing.Xiao Wu and Three-Eyed Jin Yi also knew a little bit about the situation, they didn't plan to meddle in Zhu Zhuqing's personal relationship, while Ma Hongjun and Oscar didn't know about Dai Mubai's situation, as for Tang San and Ning Rongrong hadn't directly integrated into this group yet.
However, the two of them have lived in two lifetimes, and the other is the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Although she is a good girl on the surface, she is now a witch in essence. Naturally, one can see that there is something hidden in it, and the one who resolved this embarrassment is the door. The scent from outside.
As the initiator of the embarrassing topic, Ma Hongjun decided to resolve the issue himself. "It smells so good. According to my experience, it is definitely delicious. You can't eat this clear soup without water. Let's go and have a look together." He said and walked out first. As for when he changed his pants, this is an unsolved mystery.
Compared to the unknown of these people, what Xiao Wu and the three-eyed Jin Yi felt was familiar.
"Sister Wu, what does it taste like?"
"It should be... you'll know once you go out and take a look."
Not far away, at the edge of the college, a grill was set up here, and the person behind the grill was Ah Er with yellow lines on his forehead, and on the grill was a coconut-like fruit.
Inside is a rice-like food, which is being heated on a charcoal fire.
"I knew it was them..." Xiao Wu guessed it from the moment she smelled it. After all, this kind of specialty ingredient should not be found outside the canteens of Star Dou Forest and Tianyaomen.
"Isn't this rice bowl fruit? Has anyone finally sold it outside? This is really super delicious." It was Ning Rongrong who spoke. She had eaten this kind of food before, and Xie Yue brought it with her when she went to study at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. of.
In addition, those things are also within the trading scope of Tianyaomen and Qibao Liulizong, but the distribution channels are relatively small, and they are only sold in big cities. This kind of food is made into a high-end product. 5 gold per piece The price of soul coins is unacceptable to ordinary people, even poorer soul masters.
As a foodie, Ma Hongjun was completely attracted by this taste at this time, drooling and standing in front of Ah Er's barbecue grill.
"Boss, how much is this one?"
"The original price is 5 gold soul coins, but I have a special channel, and only one gold soul coin per copy."
"It's so expensive..." For the current Ma Hongjun, this is not cheap. There are many poor soul masters. Just look at the fact that the entire Min family does not have much savings. A gold soul coin is enough for him to find. It was like a golden phoenix, and it was obviously not enough for one serving, but it was too fragrant. At this time, he was struggling wildly.
"Miss Ben is taking care of everything, everyone come and eat." There are many poor soul masters, but there are also many rich soul masters. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is a model of rich soul masters. There are also tens of thousands of gold soul coins in the small treasury. Of course, there are a few people who count the gold soul coins not by quantity but by weight. Those are the real rich soul beasts.
Dozens of gold soul coins were obviously not taken seriously by Ning Rongrong, so she directly wrapped up all the things and used them as treats to make friends. Her image is perfect when it comes to these things.
Xiao Wu is quite familiar with this kind of fruit. She chose a color she likes and started to eat it. Different colors represent different tastes, and she is familiar with it.But this is just a general category. One of the characteristics of this kind of fruit is that it is like opening a blind box, and there will always be some strange things mixed in.
For example, the fruit Tang San opened gave off a strange smell, completely forming a different world from the fragrance here.
"Boss, do you still have bad things?"
"Don't talk nonsense, it's just that the taste of these things is random. Yours seems to be stinky tofu. Remember to hold it steady. If the juice is spilled on your body, it will be difficult to wash off. It will take a whole day for the smell to disappear."
"It smells stinky and eats this, you don't want to give it to me." Ma Hongjun on the side didn't shy away, took it directly and started to eat, but when he took it away, a drop of juice accidentally fell on Tang San's shoe, but because of that one No one noticed this when the fruit was still there.
"Why did you come here?" While eating, the three soul beasts also began to communicate in the spiritual field, Xiao Wu did not expect Ah Er to come here directly to sell food.
"Miss Wu, you have to trust our intelligence capabilities. We got a negative score for the cafeteria of this academy, so I set up a tavern in the village, and the ingredients are all brought from the Star Dou Forest. You know of."
On the other side, Dai Mubai also started to talk about the rules of Shrek Academy, after all he is the oldest among the students, people who come here seriously to take classes are also curious about this question.
"The academy's rules are very free, and there is a lot of free time. The main thing is that killing people is not allowed, robbery is not allowed, and that kind of thing is not allowed to go against women's wishes. Fatty's previous behavior is already a bit of an edge. However, the academy encourages reasonable fighting and growing spinach."
"Is it really good to grow spinach... nine times out of ten you lose, it's a bottomless pit." Ye Qing's education is to stay away from pornography, gambling and drugs, unless you have the ability to become a Konoha Sannin, so Di Qiu'er questioned.
"The teachers believe that actual combat is the best way to become proficient in one's own martial spirit. Enhancing actual combat experience is extremely important. Spinach is not all spinach, and spinach here only refers to the gambling between soul masters. This can enhance psychological endurance and strengthen the soul. Self-observation and judgment are of great benefit. Of course, everything should be done in moderation. Simply put, you can’t kill people in battle, and it’s fine if you don’t lose your pants with spinach.”
But when it came to the end, he was a bit unconfident. After all, a certain dean was so red-eyed that he even lost his No. [-] small treasury, and he was only one step away from losing his pants. It was Zao Wou-ki who gave him back. Blood, this is also the reason why breakfast has become more bland recently, otherwise you could still see an egg anyway.
The group returned to the academy, and a certain dean who almost lost his pants was already waiting here. Compared with Blue Star Motion's speech declaration for several hours, Flender's speech can be said to be extremely simple.
"Tuition fee of one hundred gold soul coins per person, I will pay the tuition fee first. The formal class starts tonight, Ning Rongrong Oscar, you two come with me, and the others can disband."
Zhu Zhuqing directly started his own cultivation method, disappeared after a few flashes, and Dai Mubai obviously had something to say and followed, Xiao Wu and Di Qiuer were going to set off to buy mattresses, and Ma Hongjun ran back to the room Started to eat what was left, only Tang San seemed to want to listen to Flender's words.
To sum up Flender's words, as an auxiliary system soul master, you don't need to know anything else, but you must be able to run for your life, otherwise what should you do if you can't even run and fight.Although letting the enemy rush into the face of an auxiliary soul master is a disqualification of teammates, accidents will always happen, even when the closest teammates make mistakes, I am the most reliable.
As long as you can run two extra steps, your chances of surviving will be a little better.Afterwards, he arranged for Ning Rongrong and Oscar to run around, and called Tang San to the room alone.
The 24 Bridge Moonlit Night on Tang San's waist belonged to Yu Xiaogang, so he had a lot to do with Yu Xiaogang, so he wanted to inquire about it in detail, but there was one more question before that.
"What's the matter with you? Why is there a bad smell?"
"I began to suspect that there is something wrong with this dean..." Xiao Wu couldn't help but suspect that there was something wrong with the dean's brain circuit after looking at the other party. Habits come naturally. Ma Hongjun was obviously used to this kind of life, even if Now that it’s broken, I don’t really want to change it.
At this time, Flender sneezed, and then looked at Zao Wou-ki.
"I said what are you doing? These are all flesh wounds. A few large sausages should be enough to recover. Are you still standing behind me because your legs are shaking? Straighten up your waist and don't embarrass yourself in front of outsiders. "
"Shut up Flender, don't let her recognize me, I can't run like this now." Flender and Zhao Wuji saw someone in the office after they came back, Flender recognized him, it was The former big benefactor, just when he was going to show some good performance to see if there is any benefit to follow, but found that Zhao Wuji was timid.
"Alright Dean Flender, don't make things difficult for him. After all, he and I are old acquaintances. You have to thank me for coming to be your teacher. Say yes, Fudo Ming Wang Zhao Wuji , Don’t you want to say hello when you see an old friend?”
"I said, grandma, our accounts should be settled... You chased me and beat me up for months."
It was Xiaotong who went back and forth, and he was also the one who caused Zao Wou-ki the most psychological shadow. He couldn't beat him, and he couldn't run away.
Thinking of last night's experience, Zao Wou-ki suddenly had a very ominous premonition.
"There shouldn't be any of your juniors among those little guys!" Last night showed Haotian Douluo's powerful punches and kicks, followed by Xiao Wu's series of soft skills, which had already left a deep impression on him. , if he comes again, he won't have to stand, he will just be a patient.
"I really don't have this one, don't worry, I never hold grudges, I will avenge them on the spot."

It's just that I heard the familiar screams and the familiar breath of soul power, so I came to take a look. It seems that the memory she left behind is still deep enough.
After Xiaotong left, Flender looked at Zhao Wuji.
"Is this also your enemy back then?"
"It's not... but it's not friendly either. I took on a bodyguard mission back then, and she was the one who came to assassinate her. I had a fight because my soul skills found her."

"She's as strong as a monster. She punched me 20 meters away. She's also very vindictive and only beat me for several months... Now she's probably even stronger."
"Sure enough, none of the people in the Tianyao Sect is simple." He knows Zhao Wou-ki's ability. Now his soul power is two levels higher than Zhao Wou-ki's, but if the two of them fight, he is not Zao Wou-ki's opponent. Hitting Zao Wou-ki in the air is enough to show the opponent's strength.
"Is she from the Tianyao Sect? Fortunately, I didn't completely offend her..."
"In short, none of the students in this batch are easy to deal with. The people from the Haotian Douluo, the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, the Tianyao Sect, and the big powers are almost all here... You can continue to recover from your injuries, and I will prepare for them.
