Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 158 Highbrow Art! Senior Sister, she's really big!
"Dean, there are still more than two months until the first-year students' final exams. Will this year's class follow the same assessment method as before...?"

In the dean's office of the outer academy, Wu Changkong placed the exam schedule he had prepared in front of Ya Li and inquired about it.

Shrek's first final exam for freshmen is, as is customary, an outdoor assessment to test their adaptability and observe their character and conduct in difficult situations.

"Let's stay at the academy this time... things aren't peaceful outside."

Yali pondered for a moment, then gently shook her head.

Given the current situation, sending these young trainees out could lead to disastrous consequences if they were attacked by evil spirit masters.

The inner courtyard has already suffered an incident; if the outer courtyard suffers another one, Shrek Academy's reputation will truly be ruined.

Moreover, the current situation is somewhat tense, and Shrek should not be so ostentatious.

"Understood!"

Wu Changkong nodded slightly, offering no objection, but in fact, he felt a certain degree of agreement.

If these kids go out and cause trouble, their mentors will have to clean up their messes.

"Then I'll go back and work on another assessment plan..."

Wu Changkong took the files off the table.

"Go!"

Yali nodded and gestured.

Wu Changkong bowed slightly to her and then withdrew.

"I hope you can grow up quickly..."

Yali got up, went to the window, and looked at the trainees training in the square in the distance.

A faint worry lingered between her beautiful brows; for some reason, she had a bad feeling.

Time really flies!

Looking at the energetic students, Yali's pretty face blossomed with a bright smile once again.

After taking over the School of Foreign Languages, she discovered many promising students among the freshmen of that year.

A powerful Golden Dragon bloodline, an elementalist who controls the elements, the super martial soul Time-Space Dragon, a self-fused martial soul fusion technique...

She seemed to see her own era, which was also known as the Golden Generation, and many of them eventually became Limit Douluo.

At that time, Ming Ge was hailed as a genius comparable to the Sea God and Lingbing Douluo, and many people placed high hopes on him.

Unfortunately... reaching godhood is still a long way off.

"Brother Ming...it's all Ya Li's fault for being useless!"

Ya Li sighed. Yun Ming hadn't made any progress in strength for many years since he entered the quasi-god realm.

Despite her best efforts, she was still unable to help Brother Ming break through that divine barrier.

If she could reach the Limit Douluo level, perhaps she could help Brother Ming go even further.

However, for some reason, her cultivation level has remained stuck at level 98 for many years, making it difficult for her to reach the Limit Douluo level.

She initially thought it was due to her own inner conflict, but after taking in Na'er as her goddaughter a few years ago, she tried several more times but still couldn't break through.

This made her feel somewhat dejected; perhaps she really wasn't talented enough.

"Ok?"

Just as Yali was deep in thought, a melodious and gentle sound of an ocarina drifted in from outside the window. The sound was faint, but it was full of a sorrowful farewell.

"It's that girl, Yinmeng! She's finally come out of this!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of joy flashed across Ya Li's pretty face, and she disappeared from the spot in a flash.

……

The dormitory building, and an open space in front of it.

A stunningly beautiful woman in a light blue dress was holding a xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) in her hands and playing it slowly, creating wondrous notes that floated around her.

Tang Yinmeng played with all her might, pouring all the pent-up emotions in her heart into this piece.

The music started out mournful and tender, then gradually became more stirring, as if bidding a final farewell to a departed friend.

"Senior sister!" Shen Yi stood at the dormitory door, looking at Tang Yinmeng in front of him, feeling a pang of sadness.

She could sense the pain in her senior sister's heart from the music, but the two of them could not truly empathize with each other and could only watch from the sidelines.

"Our senior sister will figure it out on her own, don't worry. She is much stronger than we imagine... The deceased is gone, but the future is still in our hands."

Jiang Yi, standing to the side, offered a soft word of comfort.

Life will find its own way. As long as she doesn't have suicidal thoughts, she will always find hope for survival in the future.

Tang Yinmeng, this senior sister, is really... of course, he was referring to her status, but actually it's not small either.

In terms of seniority, she should even call Yun Ming "Senior Brother." Given her prestige in the inner academy, bringing her under his wing would be equivalent to bringing most of the inner academy's disciples to his side.

This is also why he takes special care of this senior sister... She will be his number one general in Shrek Academy in the future!

Jiang Yi smiled; judging from the current situation, Tang Yinmeng was no longer able to escape his grasp.

"Hmph! You act like you know Senior Sister so well?"

Shen Yi rolled her eyes at him. She was the one who grew up with her senior sister since childhood, okay?
Then, she glanced at Jiang Yi again, especially at the hand that was resting on her shoulder.

No respect for elders! They're getting more and more unruly...

But Jiang Yi seemed oblivious, and instead gently patted her shoulder, saying in a surprised tone.

"Hey! Senior sister, look! It seems like our eldest senior sister has broken through!"

Shen Yi withdrew his gaze and didn't hold it against Jiang Yi. For the sake of his senior sister, he would let him off the hook today.

She turned her head and saw that Tang Yinmeng had stopped playing the flute and now held a blue jade hairpin in her hand.

A hint of reminiscence flickered in her beautiful eyes, a mixture of sweetness and bitterness.

This is the token of love between her and Lan Muzi!

When Lan Muzi had Jiang Yi return the jade hairpin, she immediately understood his intentions.

He didn't want to become the shackles that would trap him for the rest of his life.

"Fool, why won't you come back and say goodbye..."

The beautiful woman, with tears in her eyes, smiled radiantly; her unparalleled elegance in that instant was aloof and independent.

She tilted her head back, looked up at the azure sky, and slowly closed her eyes.

click!
With a crisp sound, Tang Yinmeng gently clenched her fist and crushed the jade hairpin in her palm into powder.

"Farewell, Senior Brother! I will live well, not for you, but for myself!"

When she opened her eyes again, the sadness in them had subsided, replaced by a sense of relief.

She picked up the xun again, and the notes danced once more, but this time the melody was no longer sad, but much more cheerful.

The sound of the xun is melodious and gentle, sometimes warm and gentle like the winter sun, and sometimes calm and peaceful like the babbling brook...

Along with the music, her once dormant spiritual sea also leaped, strands of spiritual energy combining with the musical notes, gently brushing across the surrounding grass like a spring breeze.

Wherever the music passed, amazing changes occurred.

Suddenly, new buds sprouted from the earth, grew rapidly, and then bloomed in full glory. In the blink of an eye, Tang Yinmeng was surrounded by a magnificent sea of ​​flowers.

Highbrow art, withered trees come back to life!

Tang Yinmeng stood alone in the sea of ​​flowers, as if she had become one with her surroundings, resonating with all things and blooming with all the flowers.

Just then, several figures quietly appeared in mid-air.

"Harmony between man and nature! Yinmeng has actually benefited from this misfortune!"

Long Yeyue looked down at Tang Yinmeng below, a relieved smile appearing on her aged face.

After this breakthrough in mental strength, Tang Yinmeng will no longer face any mental strength bottlenecks before breaking through to Super Douluo.

Sure enough, those evil spirit masters were delusional to think they could destroy me, their disciple.

She said that with her teachings and example, how could Yinmeng possibly become despondent?

Isn't it getting better now?
