Douluo Dragon King: My strategy system is not right

Chapter 46: Mountains are never broken by reflections
A flash of light appeared, and Lin Ci emerged from it, his mouth slightly bruised and purple. He looked rather disheveled.

"We agreed not to use soul power." He complained secretly, but in fact he guessed that this guy was going to do this.

Looking over, Gu Yue and the other two had already come out, but except for Gu Yue who was only slightly pale, the others were not so well. Tang Wulin and Xie Xie's faces were covered in bruises.

"Brother Ci, you were beaten so hard too?" Xie Xie was a little surprised. "Which simulated character is so strong?"

Lin Ci's mouth twitched. He actually hoped it was a simulated character, so that he wouldn't be so miserable.

Tang Wulin didn't ask so frivolously, "Brother Ci, which level have you reached?"

Lin Ci said: "The final level."

Tang Wulin was still very impressed and sighed sincerely: "Like Gu Yue, you two are still stronger."

Even when Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi were still around, the recognized strongest members of Class Zero were Gu Yue and Lin Ci. One was invincible in his class, the other possessed terrifying talent.

Gu Yue stood aside with his arms folded in a cold manner. Upon hearing this, he just snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Wu Zhangkong turned around and looked at the four people. He nodded and said, "Come here."

They walked in front of Wu Zhangkong. Xie Xie lowered his head. He had the worst grades and thought to himself that he might be criticized.

Just as he had this thought, the light suddenly shone, and the four people felt a strong spatial fluctuation again, and they disappeared from the spot out of thin air.

When the light flashed again, they appeared in a place that looked like an office. The spacious space was more than 200 square meters, with a huge desk in the back and white leather sofas neatly arranged.

"Sit down, I want to talk to you about something." Wu Zhangkong pointed to the sofa.

Lin Ci sat down naturally, but Xie Xie hesitated. He felt a little embarrassed to face the worst student. However, as Gu Yue and Tang Wulin took their seats, he gritted his teeth and sat down across from Wu Zhangkong.

"You must be feeling very strange about today's exam. During the assessment, you all encountered opponents of the same level. I must tell you that the opponents you encountered in the Hall of Heroes were all real soul masters who once existed. Because they were simulated, they can only display about 70% of their true strength. How do you think your strength compares to them?"

Lin Ci didn't want to mention Huo Yuhao's "Old Six" at all. This guy had no martial ethics at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so miserable.

"I brought you here for two reasons. First, because your absorption distance in the Soul Ascension Platform is almost at its upper limit, you won't be able to continue training there in a few more times. So, you need another place to practice actual combat. The actual combat in the Hall of Heroes is more realistic, because it is your body that is directly injured. Of course, if your injuries reach a certain level, you will be automatically transported out, and you won't be in a situation where your spirit is shocked because your body is destroyed like in the Soul Ascension Platform. Relatively speaking, you can think of the Hall of Heroes as a higher-level Soul Ascension Platform."

"Second, the significance of the assessment does not lie in the final exam. Your final exam was completed at the Soul Ascension Platform during the riot period, and I gave you your scores. And passing the assessment here means that you can join here. If you are determined to join, In the future, you can accumulate merit and use the Hall of Heroes for training."

Wu Zhangkong was referring to the Tang Sect. As a Tang Sect member himself, he naturally had some publicity involved. After all, Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect had a close relationship. As someone from Shrek, he naturally wanted his students to join the organization.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Wu Zhangkong continued, "This matter actually mainly involves you two, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie. Gu Yue and Lin Ci already have their own organizations and will not join."

Tang Wulin clearly didn't know anything yet. He asked in confusion, "Gu Yue, Brother Ci, have you joined the organization?" Lin Ci nodded and replied, "The Spirit Pagoda."

Tang Wulin was very smart. After hearing this answer, he immediately understood something. Considering the talents that Lin Ci and Gu Yue displayed on the Spirit Ascension Platform, it should be normal for the Spirit Pagoda to recruit them.

"Teacher Wu, what does this organization do?" Xie Xie asked.

His family was a fairly large one in Donghai City, not inferior to the Xu family, so he couldn't just join an organization of unknown origin. However, since this organization had a base in the Donghai High-Tech Park, it was likely that their origins were legitimate.

Wu Zhangkong said, "Tang Sect."

Those two words were concise and to the point. But they shocked both Tang Wulin and Xie Xie. Only Gu Yue and Lin Ci remained calm.

Gu Yue only had a vague understanding of human history, so the Tang Sect had no value in her mind.

Let alone Lin Ci. He certainly didn't harbor hatred towards them now, though that was certainly the case 20,000 years ago. But since then, whether it was Tang Ya, Huo Yuhao, or the current Tang Sect leader, he's known them all and is naturally familiar with them, so he doesn't think anything of it.

In the end, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie chose to join. In reality, even Xie Xie, the so-called young master of a wealthy family, was nothing compared to the truly top-tier factions. East Sea City was a secluded corner of the country, and even a random household from Shrek City would be considered a major family in East Sea City.

Therefore, whether it was Xie Xie or the even less powerful Tang Wulin, joining the Tang Sect would bring more benefits than disadvantages. They could choose to join without much consideration.

Wu Zhangkong nodded, very satisfied. This was in line with his expectations. After all, he had known for a long time that Lin Ci and Gu Yue had joined the Spirit Pagoda.

Tian Feng Douluo had already approached him. Just like when Leng Yaozhu chose to meet with Lin Ci that day to ask him about it, he had no objections at all. As long as Lin Ci agreed, it was fine. Undoubtedly, having a top-tier Titled Douluo, the continent's most powerful being personally accepted as a disciple was absolutely fantastic. It would be very good for both Lin Ci and Gu Yue's future.

Admittedly, he was willing to let his disciples join the Tang Sect like him, but he couldn't block Lin Ci's future just for his own selfish reasons.

Tang Wulin and Xie Xie were both very happy. Being able to join the Tang Sect was definitely a good thing for them.

This time, Tang Wulin did not feel sad because Lin Ci and Gu Yue did not join the Tang Sect.

He still remembered what Lin Ci said to him yesterday.

“The ocean never apologizes for receding.”

Everyone has his own choice. He chooses to be the sea, rather than following the tide and drifting with the flow.

The sea never apologizes for receding, and the mountains never break because of their reflections.

　We will resume updating as normal tomorrow.
