Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 27: Fighting for Food

After having a quick meal by the Herring Creek near the poisonous insect forest, the three of them set off towards Shrek City.

They are now in the western part of the outer area of ​​Star Dou Forest, while Shrek City is close to the northwest of Star Dou Forest.

The three of them were not traveling in a rash manner. They did not choose to cross the forest to go back just because their strength had improved, even if it was just crossing the outer area.

This is a must-test point that teachers in any soul master academy will repeatedly remind you of, and it is also a knowledge point that must be remembered.

If not necessary, do not cross the Soul Beast Forest.

Chen Ping may not have had a teacher to teach him in person, but he knew to cherish his life.

The three of them tacitly withdrew from the outer area first, and then took the official road to rush to Shrek City.

As we walked until dusk, the trees on both sides became fewer and fewer, replaced by spacious plains.

Is it coming?

Walking out of a jungle along the road, the tall city walls of the plain in the distance stretched to the left and right.

The shock brought by this huge city wall is not only its huge size, but also the majesty and solemnity it exudes.

Looking from afar, one can already see Shrek Academy in the distance—no, it should be Shrek City.

After all, Shrek Academy was built on the Lima Plain, covering a vast area. It was a city in itself with a population of more than two million.

Shrek Academy is not located in the center of Shrek City, but in the east of Shrek City, facing the Star Dou Great Forest.

The reason is very simple. Shrek replaced the Spirit Hall's former position in Douluo Continent, so naturally it has to shoulder the responsibilities that the Spirit Hall once borne.

Just like every high priest of the Spirit Hall is responsible for suppressing the possible beast tide and is always ready to die together with the Soul Beast Emperor of the Star Dou Forest.

Shrek Academy moved from the former site of Tiandou City and Lanba Academy to the ruins of Wuhun City, which also forced them to shoulder everything that the Wuhun Hall once carried.

Shrek City has major roads to the east, south, west and north, and transportation can be said to be well-connected.

This is not only the location of Shrek Academy, but also the most important commercial city at the junction of the three empires that originally belonged to Douluo Continent.

Because the three gates of Shrek City, namely the south, west and north, can be entered and exited at will, and only the east gate is exclusively for Shrek Academy.

It was already evening, and Shrek's mythical beasts had come out of their cages, finishing a hard day's study and walking through the streets in search of food.

"Yeah, Shrek doesn't seem to have evening self-study classes, so this is a reasonable time to end school."

As he walked into the city gate and saw students wearing colorful school uniforms representing different grades enjoying the food on the street, Chen Ping nodded and talked to himself.

"Evening study?"

Tang Ya turned her head suddenly. She seemed to hear a word that was extremely evil. She had never thought that language could be combined like this.

"No, it's nothing."

Chen Ping just found it a little funny. The study pressure of these Shrek students was obviously much lighter than that of the students on Blue Star, but it was also good this way.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Ping felt that the air in Shrek City was somewhat salty and fragrant - it turned out that he was too close to the grilled squid stall.

But the grilled squid in this other world is really big!

Looking at the stall owner next to him grilling a huge squid the size of a human face on the iron plate, Chen Ping subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

However, when he looked at the price of "Ten Years of Thick Fog Squid, Three Golds for One" on the stall, Chen Ping quickly shook his head.

Is he worthy of eating such an expensive thing?

Having said that, no wonder Huo Yuhao dared to sell his grilled fish for one silver coin each. Compared with the vendors selling soul beast meat in Shrek City, grilled herring at one silver coin each was really not expensive.

This fucking price
Chen Ping shook his head. If he remembered correctly, Shrek Academy was not bad at all. Ten thousand years ago, the Flanders canteen had millet porridge, steamed buns, and pickles.

Ten thousand years later, in the No. 1 academy on the continent, the cafeteria still sells millet porridge, steamed buns, and pickles.

At least this can ensure that I won't starve to death in Shrek.

However, this can only ensure that he will not starve to death. If he wants to get enough nutritious food, there are only two ways in Shrek.

The first is spending money.

The first window of Shrek Canteen is where common and cheap food items such as millet porridge, steamed buns, and pickles are sold.

Even if you want to get some cheap protein, such as eggs or chicken offal, you have to go to the second window.

Among the eight windows of Shrek Academy, the ingredients in the last window are even made entirely of soul beast ingredients.

It is indeed expensive, but its nourishing effect on the body is incomparable to steamed buns, pickles and millet porridge.

This is very important for Chen Ping, who is in the developmental stage.

Not to mention anything else, the stew of scaly-armored crocodile that Huo Gua had eaten during the freshman competition had the effect of improving physical fitness and strengthening the resilience of meridians.

If Chen Ping could eat two more meals, he wouldn't have to worry about the high-speed flow of soul power during motion meditation causing excessive impact on his meridians.

There is also the bird soup made by the unknown flying soul beast, which has the effect of stabilizing the internal organs.

If you eat too much of this kind of food, even if someone suddenly punches you in the stomach, you can immediately fight back and knock the other person to the ground instead of struggling for a long time without being able to catch your breath.

But the problem is, he doesn't have that much money.

If Chen Ping remembered correctly, this meal would cost more than sixty gold soul coins.

Note that this is the price of a meal.

Not to mention that Chen Ping couldn't afford it, even among Shrek's teachers and students, there were very few who could eat this for every meal.

The food expenses for a month alone are at least 5,000 gold soul coins. How many forces are so rich that they can afford such a thing?
The money from these two months is enough to buy a Xuanshui Pill on the market.

Therefore, Chen Ping could only consider the second method.

That is to get a spot as a core disciple.

Chen Ping doesn't care about the other treatment enjoyed by core disciples.

The only thing he had was the basic food allowance of 5,000 gold soul coins per month, which was enough for Chen Pin to fight for desperately.

Even if one only retains the status of a core disciple for one year, eating Window No. 8 every day is equivalent to eating a high-quality century-old soul bone.

People say there are more opportunities in big cities. This is the case on Blue Planet, but I didn’t expect that the same principle would apply to other places.

Chen Ping came back to his senses, shifted his gaze away from the grilled squid the size of a football, and continued walking inside with Beibei and Tang Ya.

Although Shrek generally does not allow outsiders to enter the academy, there are always loopholes in the rules. Tang Ya and Bei Bei had an idea and thought of a way for Chen Ping.

At this time, Chen Ping was Beibei's cousin.

Shrek allows students' families to visit Shrek. Although the relationship between cousins ​​is a bit distant, can you say that cousins ​​are not relatives?

"Let's go. I'll take you around the school first, and then we'll go to the library to meet Teacher Wang Yan."

Beibei gave Chen Ping a reassuring look before continuing to walk forward.
