Douluo: Lord of Arms

Chapter 137 Team formation
After watching Lin Xingyu leave, Wu Changkong's eyes flickered with anticipation.

Shrek Academy's academic system is three years of study from the first year. He had always had some expectations for Lin Xingyu and Gu Yue's abilities.

He had no doubt that the group could defeat the second-year students, but they would have some difficulty against the third-year students.

“This should be able to bring out all their potential,” Wu Changkong murmured.

He was aware of some of the unpleasantness at the start of the school year, and he suggested continuing to challenge the third graders, with the idea of ​​allowing these students to showcase themselves more fully.

This would allow the academy to pay more attention to them, and over time, the two sides could grow closer. Who knows, they might even be able to recruit a next generation of Shrek Seven Devils.

Shaking his head to clear those distracting thoughts, Wu Changkong then threw himself back into his work.

There are many competitions in the academy, and the students just need to go and compete, but he has a lot of other things to worry about.

……

After leaving Wu Changkong's office, Lin Xingyu quickly decided in his mind who to invite the second-year students.

Three people are enough. Yuan Enhui and Zhou Hanyou are quite strong, and can be said to be the strongest among the second-year students. Zhou Tian'er can be considered as an extra accessory.

As for Le Zhengyu, Lin Xingyu had always been puzzled as to why he was still a Soul Venerable at his age, even though his background was not low and his Martial Soul was quite good.

Although Duan Hunxiao and Wang Dongqi are also good, there are more people with stronger control abilities here, and there are enough elemental soul masters.

As for why they all chose girls.

Ok…

Well, Lin Xingyu didn't expect them to play a very strong role. He was definitely going to be the main force in this match, so choosing some pretty girls would at least make it more pleasing to the eye.

Looking at the unfinished building in front of him, Lin Xingyu hesitated for a long time before finally taking out his communication soul tool to send a message to Yuanen Yehui.

The dormitory conditions for work-study students are really bad.

The only advantage is that it's quieter, and you can live in a building all by yourself.

No, those two should be living in the same building now. I don't know if Yue Zhengyu has moved out yet.

Lin Xingyu glanced at the location sent by Yuan Enhui on his communication soul tool and walked over.

When he arrived at the location, Yuan Enhui was standing at the door.

Yuan Enhui, dressed in women's clothing, stood there with her arms crossed, looking quite large.

"What's the matter now? Have you made any progress in your research?"

Yuan Enhui couldn't help but tease.

Lin Xingyu was taken aback when she heard this, and then she realized what she was talking about.

"It won't happen that quickly. Even if you want to see initial results, you'll have to wait a year or two."

"Nothing's wrong."

As expected, a hint of disappointment still flashed across Yuan Enhui's eyes. Since obtaining his blood, Lin Xingyu had never come to find him again.

It was always me who had to go to him for something, but today he suddenly came over, so Yuan En Hui naturally felt a sense of anticipation.

"Next up is an exchange competition with the third-year students, and the academy has asked us to invite a few people from the second-year students."

Lin Xingyu immediately understood his purpose.

"I've come to invite you, Zhou Hanyou and Zhou Tian'er, to join the team."

Upon hearing Lin Xingyu's words, Yuan Enye's dark eyes widened instantly.

"I'm fine with it. At most, I'll just have to go on stage and embarrass myself with you. I can also try to persuade those two on your behalf." "But are you sure you really want to go through with it?"

Shrek Academy's first year lasts three years, and students are required to become Battle Armor Masters before the age of twenty-five to enter the inner academy.

The third and fourth years are the peak years for becoming a Battle Armor Master. By the fifth and sixth years, most students are already over twenty-five years old, and even if they become Battle Armor Masters, most of them just slack off.

By the time students enter school at age thirteen and reach the third grade, they are generally nineteen years old, and the more outstanding students are usually Soul Kings by this time.

Soul Kings can already wear a complete One-Word Battle Armor. Even those with weaker secondary professions will use various methods to accelerate the creation of their own Battle Armor.

"What, you don't believe we can win?" Lin Xingyu said with a smile.

"Even if you have four ten-thousand-year soul rings, your chances aren't great." Yuanen Yehui was somewhat speechless.

After thinking for a moment, Yuanen Yehui continued, "In the worst-case scenario, we'll have to fight seven Soul Kings, and they'll be the kind who have most of their battle armor on them."

"Even in a worse situation, one or two complete One-Word Battle Armor Masters might emerge, which is roughly equivalent to an ordinary Soul Saint, and their Martial Soul quality would definitely not be bad."

“I’m not surprised that you can take down a few Soul Kings. Even if you can handle a One-Word Battle Armor Master, it’s no problem. But we both know the level of the rest of them.”

"They can't win a team fight. I doubt either of them will go."

After speaking, Yuan Enhui stared straight at Lin Xingyu, wanting to see how he would convince himself.

"There are still two months until the next match. In this time, we can manufacture all our battle armor. You should know my secondary profession level. You've seen their level as well."

"Two months is enough time for the spirit-infused battle armor on all of you to reach its maximum capacity. Do you think those two will come?"

Upon hearing Lin Xingyu's words, Yuan Enye's eyes lit up.

"I'll invite both of them over right away!"

……

Half an hour later, in a tea shop on the commercial street.

Lin Xingyu sat in a chair and looked at the three people in front of him.

Zhou Hanyou and Zhou Tian'er sat together. The two looked extremely similar, except for their almost identical hair color. When they sat together, their charm was multiplied, attracting many passersby to slow down.

After hearing Lin Xingyu's conditions and seeing Yuan Enhui's spirit-infused battle armor with his own eyes.

Without a second thought, the two agreed to Lin Xingyu's terms.

"Junior, we all came from the Tianhai Alliance. I'd be happy to join your team. Competitions like this are nothing. We've had our share of real battles since we came to Shrek Academy."

Zhou Hanyou smiled slightly and agreed, the coldness that usually lingered on her face completely disappearing.

"That's right. If you have any problems in the future, just contact us directly. Everyone, please add us on the Soul Guidance Communication Network."

Zhou Tian'er was quite lively; she never stopped talking once the group met.

And his gaze remained fixed on Lin Xingyu, showing considerable curiosity.

"Sure, I'll have to trouble you to take care of me from now on, senior." Lin Xingyu said politely for a moment, then gave her number.

Lin Xingyu's terms for the group were simple: they would provide the materials, while he would provide the technical assistance.

After estimating the physical condition of the group, I estimated that it would take me about four to five nights to make battle armor for them.

Furthermore, he couldn't be biased towards one teammate over another; he also needed to provide technical assistance to several of his teammates. The two months were just enough to take up his one weekend evening off each week.
