Douluo Dragon King: My strategy system is not right

Chapter 16 Test
The teaching of Class Zero is still proceeding in an orderly manner. Facts have proved that what Dean Yu Zhen said is not false. Donghai College has spared no effort in allocating resources to them.

Wu Zhangkong was just one of their teachers, and more professional instructors began to appear. Almost all of them were the most specialized teachers in each major at Donghai College.

Unlike regular classes, which tend to focus on theoretical instruction, Class Zero is more focused on practical instruction. As Dean Yu Zhen said, the college has given Class Zero the utmost support, ensuring optimal teaching methods, faculty, and hardware facilities.

Of course, the food was also the best, even better than meal A, and they were almost provided with a special diet.

This is also what Lin Ci is most satisfied with.

A lot of time these days was spent on actual combat training, which was what Wu Zhangkong called practical combat skills training. However, it wasn't just Wu Zhangkong training; Lin Ci also helped with simulated battles.

Of course, Wu Changkong was still the one teaching, and Lin Ci could only help with sparring. But for him, this was enough, and it allowed him to experience the pleasure of holding a teaching stick.

"Come on, let's fight together." Lin Ci held the teaching stick in his hand, and Tang Wulin and Gu Yue on the opposite side joined forces to fight him.

Of course, these were all random combinations, and each pairing played a single match, honing their skills and coordination. Besides actual combat training, the second most important aspect of Wu Changkong's teaching was teamwork.

Fighting Lin Ci without using soul power was quite difficult for them, as they were used to fighting with soul power. But fortunately, after so many days of training, they had learned a lot.

There was no distinction between the front and back rows. Gu Yue and Tang Wulin stepped forward almost at the same time, attacking Lin Ci directly from the left and right.

Lin Ci's lips curled up, and instead of retreating, he charged forward, his figure like lightning, towards Tang Wulin. Seeing this, Tang Wulin's eyes fixed, his steps steady, his fists clenched, and he took a defensive stance. Gu Yue took advantage of the situation and swerved from the side, attempting to encircle Lin Ci.

Lin Ci showed no mercy, and the teaching stick in his hand stretched out like a snake, heading straight for Tang Wulin's head.

Tang Wulin was startled and subconsciously dodged to the side, while raising his leg to kick Lin Ci below.

"That's a lack of martial ethics."

Lin Ci leaned back slightly, easily avoiding the kick, and then used his other free hand to grab Tang Wulin's missed kick.

Tang Wulin reacted quickly as well. When his kick missed, he threw a punch. His strength was so great that the punch could be heard making a slight explosion sound in mid-air.

He actually knew that it was impossible to kick Lin Ci with that kick just now, so he was planning to make the latter grab his foot and force him to take his punch head-on.

Tang Wulin had gained experience fighting Lin Ci so many times these days. His movements were so good that he could always use his clever moves to achieve a surprise victory. Since he couldn't defeat him in this area, he could only use his best strength.

But Lin Ci was not panicked at all. The hand holding the teaching stick turned slightly, and the back of his hand collided directly with the approaching fist.

Surprisingly, Tang Wulin's punch did not achieve the desired effect.

The next moment, before Tang Wulin could figure out what was going on, Lin Ci's hand that was pinching his ankle suddenly flipped him into the air, and then he whipped him accurately on the butt, knocking him directly to the ground.

After getting rid of Tang Wulin, Lin Ci had just finished swinging the whip, and then he turned his whip again, and the tip of the whip swept directly towards Gu Yue.

Gu Yue's eyes were cold as he dodged the whip by moving sideways. At the same time, he rushed forward and attacked Lin Ci's back with his palms like knives.

Lin Ci sensed the fierce attack from behind, and he exerted force from his waist, and his whole body shot forward like a spring.

Gu Yue's palms missed again.

Lin Ci found it very boring and said indifferently: "Give up, you haven't improved at all, the ending will still be the same."

Gu Yue gritted her teeth, obviously not wanting to hear anything. She took a step forward, tapped the ground with her toes, and spun her body like a black whirlwind. She raised her right leg high and swept it towards Lin Ci.

Lin Ci dodged to the side, and at the same time, the teaching stick in his hand quickly wrapped around Gu Yue's legs.

At this time, Gu Yue's face changed. He realized something was wrong and wanted to break free, but found that the teaching stick was getting tighter and tighter.

Only then did she realize she had fallen into a trap. Lin Ci had been waiting for this kick.

But it was too late to regret now. Lin Ci swung the blackboard stick wrapped around Gu Yue's leg violently. The force brought by the blackboard stick's rapid fall off actually caused Gu Yue to spin several times.

During these few rounds of the table, Lin Ci took advantage of Gu Yue's inability to break free from inertia and whipped him a few times.

A blow hit each arm, then each leg. A numbing sensation instantly spread across the affected areas. The next moment, the girl fell to the ground, unable to fight.

Lin Ci's beating didn't hurt, but the brief numbness in her body was still too much for her to bear.

But Lin Ci's teaching stick did not stop. The young man in front of him seemed to be interested and swung it out for the last time.

However, the target of this attack doesn't seem to be right.

Gu Yue suddenly opened her eyes wide, and the next moment, a small ice wall appeared behind her, and the teaching stick fell on the ice wall.

"Okay, you used your soul power, so you lose." Lin Ci raised the teaching stick with the attitude of a winner.

Gu Yue realized it belatedly and said in a daze, "Did you do this on purpose?" Lin Ci sighed softly, "Otherwise, you wouldn't admit defeat and would have fought for a long time. Let's finish this quickly so I can rest."

Lin Ci said this on the surface, but in fact he was already secretly very happy.

He had long wanted to take this opportunity to get revenge. He had done so many strategy missions before, and although they had all failed, they were all flattering. But now he could take advantage of this opportunity to take vengeance on the target of the strategy. This was really comfortable.

What? You said that the previous target's grudge has nothing to do with Gu Yue now.

Lin Ci can only tell you that there is nothing she can do, it’s her own fault.

Gu Yue didn't say anything, just stood up, dusted himself off, and then walked to a corner alone.

"Gu Yue won't be angry, will he?" Xie Xie looked over curiously, then said to Lin Ci, "Isn't that a bit harsh?"

Lin Ci was not worried and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, I didn't use much strength."

The favorability level did not drop, so Lin Ci was sure that Gu Yue was not angry, so naturally he was not afraid of anything.

"You will be subjected to a series of physical tests today. Practical training will be suspended for one class."

To put it nicely, it was actual combat training; to put it bluntly, it was a one-sided beating. Wu Zhangkong's teaching stick was no pushover; even a simulated battle with Lin Ci was painful.

It was clear from what happened to Gu Yue and Tang Wulin just now that Lin Ci might not have used much energy, but he was really ruthless.

Moreover, when fighting Wu Zhangkong, he suppressed his soul power, so they could fight freely. But when fighting Lin Ci, he couldn't even use his soul power. It was a real hand-to-hand fight. And Lin Ci had this whip as a weapon, so he was whipped a lot.

Wu Changkong brought the five people to a room full of technology. The entire interior of the room was covered with a layer of silver metal plates. When they walked in here, the first feeling they had was that they had entered a silver world.

A number of unprecedented instruments are placed in this space.

"Let's do the mental strength test first. Xie Xie, you're the first one."

Wu Zhangkong held a form in his hand, ready to record everything. Xie Xie's mental strength was growing normally, having increased by two points compared to the last test.

Then there was Wang Jinxi. Wang Jinxi's mental strength was relatively weak, only 18 points.

Wu Zhangkong offered timely advice, "Wang Jinxi, if you want to go further, it's not determined by the quality of your martial soul alone. If your mental strength doesn't improve, you won't even be able to fuse your soul with your spirit in the future. Even the most powerful martial soul won't make you a strong warrior."

Wang Jinxi nodded silently. This was his usual personality. This was definitely not perfunctory. Although he was a little silent, he would definitely do his best to do what he promised. Not to mention that Wu Zhangkong was doing this entirely for his own good.

"Spiritual power is 41, not bad. Work hard to break through the Lingyuan realm within a year." Zhang Yangzi, the most calm among the three Wang Jinxi, also has the highest mental power among the three.

As a combat soul master, forty-one points of mental strength is already very good.

What Tang Wulin did next surprised the rest of them.

"Sixty-six points!" Wang Jinxi, who was always silent, exclaimed.

There are also different levels of spiritual power.

The Lingyuan Realm, the beginning of a new era, is a time of renewal. Everyone is born with the spiritual power of the Lingyuan Realm, the most fundamental spiritual power. This spiritual power can carry spirits of the yellow level, including those below the yellow level.

At the Lingtong realm, the mind and heart become one, instantly connecting to the heart's source. Reaching the Lingtong realm begins the process of mastering one's mental power, allowing one to truly manipulate their own mental power for their own benefit, capable of carrying two yellow souls or one purple soul.

Sixty-six points, which means that Tang Wulin's realm has reached the Lingtong realm.

Quantitative development is relatively easy, but qualitative leaps are much more difficult, let alone reaching the spiritual realm at this age.

Wang Jinxi originally had a bad impression of this Blue Silver Grass Soul Master who did not participate in the final battle.

After all, before this, they only knew that Tang Wulin's martial soul was Blue Silver Grass and that he was very strong. Yet, with such a useless martial soul, he became a member of their Class Zero.

But now it seems that Class Zero's recruitment is definitely not a random one. This Tang Wulin is definitely not simple either.

Even if a graduate from the Intermediate Division of the Intermediate Spirit Master Academy could break through this realm, they would be considered exceptionally talented. You should know that one of the biggest obstacles to graduating from the Advanced Division of the Intermediate Spirit Master Academy is the requirement for spiritual power to reach the Spiritual Communication Realm. This has prevented countless spirit masters from successfully graduating.

Although Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi did not communicate, their inner thoughts at this moment were surprisingly consistent.

Wu Zhangkong nodded in satisfaction and said, "Lin Ci, next."

　There is no free lunch in the world, but there are free tickets.
