Douluo's Contract God King Huo Yuhao

"Alright, everyone quiet down. Those whose names I call, please step forward: Cheng Cheng, Qiu Jianrao, Tang Dao, Shangguan Chentian, Lin Zeyu, Zhuge Yun, Tai Long, Tang Ling, Yun Xiaopiao."

"The nine of you can pack your things and leave Shrek Academy. From now on, you are no longer students of Shrek Academy."

The incident caused a huge stir. All the students stared at Zhou Yi in disbelief, clearly not expecting that she wasn't just bluffing but would actually expel them.

Tyrone, whose name was on the dismissal list, immediately retorted, "What gives you the right to dismiss us?"

"Why did I fire you? Tailong ran 98 laps, Chengcheng ran 95 laps, Qiu Jianrao ran 99 laps. Do I need to continue?"

Upon hearing Zhou Yi's words, Tailong's momentum immediately diminished, but since his studies were at stake, he still mustered the courage to question her, "Just because we ran two fewer laps, you're going to expel us outright?"

"I've already said it, in Class One, my word is law. You lot, leave now. Of course, you're welcome to complain to the academic affairs office about me, but for now, don't waste everyone's time."

How could Tailong and his group accept such an explanation? They stormed off to the disciplinary office in anger, intending to file a serious complaint against Zhou Yi.

Knowing the plot well, Huo Yuhao knew that Tai Long and the others were probably going to waste their time, but he estimated that the disciplinary office would transfer them to another class.

After all, there were quite a few aristocratic children among the students Zhou Yi expelled; the teaching affairs office must have been blinded by greed to expel them directly.

If we change their classes, the academy won't lose anything, and Zhou Yi will save face.

One or two people can easily handle this, but so many people complaining at once means even Shrek Academy would have to take it seriously. Didn't Dai Huabin just change his shift in the original story?

Why did I have to think of him? What bad luck! Huo Yuhao immediately wiped his face to hide his disgust.

Zhou Yi glanced around at the crowd still in the square and saw the shock and fear on their faces. She was very satisfied with her repressive education.

"The rest of you have 15 minutes to go back and change your clothes. After you're done, go back to the classroom and get ready for class. Anyone who is late will be expelled."

Under Zhou Yi's intimidating example, the remaining students dared not stand still and hurriedly ran to change their clothes. With the risk of expulsion hanging over their heads, no one wanted to experience the consequences of being late.

This really proves the saying from my previous life: if a teacher puts a gun to a student's head, anyone can become a good student. As for the psychological problems that may arise afterward, Zhou Yi doesn't care.

Huo Yuhao returned to his dormitory, took a quick shower, and changed into the clean clothes he had prepared in advance in his storage soul tool.

After changing his clothes, Huo Yuhao quickly left the dormitory and headed to the classroom.

It wasn't because he was afraid of being late. Huo Yuhao's speed was among the best in the class. If even Huo Yuhao couldn't make it, then the other students shouldn't bother trying.

It was purely because Wang Dong was a girl, and it was indeed very inconvenient for her to share a dormitory with him. In the original novel, Huo Yuhao had accidentally seen Wang Dong taking a shower.

But for a modern young man, accidentally watching a twelve-year-old girl taking a bath is extremely disturbing.

Huo Yuhao didn't want to try it; such behavior was somewhat perverse.

Soon, all the students arrived at the classroom of Class 1, Grade 1, and no one was late.

Everyone was seated in roughly the same positions as in the morning. Huo Yuhao's frantic running in the morning made the fans even more focused on him.

Zhou Yi stood on the podium and officially announced the start of the class.

"Classmates, can anyone tell me which Soul Master systems are offensive and which are defensive?"

Upon hearing Zhou Yi's question, Huo Yuhao, who already knew the answer, was the first to stand up and reply: "The boundaries between offense and defense for Soul Masters are now very blurred. The emergence of Soul Tools has given Soul Masters of all types a certain level of offensive and defensive capabilities."

Hearing Huo Yuhao's answer, Zhou Yi nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right. Because of the emergence of soul tools, there is a problem of blurred offense and defense for soul masters of all elements below level 50."

"However, Shrek Academy does not train Soul Masters who use Soul Tools, because once they pass level 50, they become useless."

"For example, in a battle between two Soul Masters above level 50, if one uses a Soul Tool and the other is a traditional Soul Master, the Soul Master will be defeated before the Soul Tool can even activate its Soul Tool."

Huo Yuhao disagreed with Zhou Yi's explanation and immediately asked:

"Teacher, if there are two Soul Masters, one can use the time it takes to increase one level of Soul Power to learn how to use a Soul Tool, while the other continues to be a traditional Soul Master."

"So, who's stronger, a level 52 Soul Master or a level 53 Soul King?"

Huo Yuhao's question startled Zhou Yi, who then subconsciously retorted, "Researching soul tools would waste a lot of a soul master's time cultivating soul power, which is not worth it."

"Why must Soul Masters who use Soul Tools research Soul Tools? Soul Tools aren't limited to only their creators being able to use them?"

After Huo Yuhao finished speaking, he paused slightly, and seeing that Zhou Yi did not intend to interrupt him, he continued:

"In just the time it takes to reach level one of the Soul Power level, a Soul Master's strength can increase by 30% to 50%, and for support-type Soul Masters, the increase can even be 100%. In my opinion, this is very worthwhile."

"High-level soul tools are almost equivalent to the attack power of soul skills. It's not worth wasting time learning how to use soul tools if you're just creating an attack that's equivalent to a soul skill," Zhou Yi explained.

Although Huo Yuhao kept asking questions, because Fan Yu was an eighth-level soul master, Zhou Yi, his wife, was one of the teachers who had a good impression of soul tools.

Therefore, Zhou Yi did not interrupt Huo Yuhao beforehand, intending to hear Huo Yuhao's opinion.

"But as far as I know, there are many functional soul tools. For example, some soul tools can restrict a Soul Douluo-level expert to a certain area. I believe that this is already a key factor in the decisive battle between two Soul Douluos."

"Furthermore, many soul tools do not even require learning to use. For example, there is the invincible shield, which is equivalent to giving a soul master a second life, or the milk bottle, which can accelerate the recovery of a soul master's soul power. Even the soul ray gun only requires pulling the trigger once."

After listening to Huo Yuhao's explanation, Zhou Yi somewhat agreed with his point of view.

Because of the traditional Soul Masters' aversion to Soul Masters, they forcibly bound Soul Tools and Soul Masters together.

This was also something Huo Yuhao found very strange, as it was not normal in the Douluo world where strength was paramount.

When Huo Yuhao first watched Douluo Continent II, he always thought that soul tools could only be used by the creator himself.

As a result, when they saw the Continental Soul Master Tournament, the Sun Moon Empire allowed other Soul Masters to use even high-level Soul Guidance Devices like the Sword of Judgment at will.

Huo Yuhao then realized that there was no such restriction in the settings.

This makes the Sun Moon Empire and Douluo Three Kingdoms seem very extreme and bizarre.

The Douluo Three Kingdoms community strongly opposes soul tools. Even if their soul power reaches its limit, they will not learn how to use soul tools, which has led to the near stagnation of the development of soul tools.

The Sun Moon Empire focuses on researching soul tools. Even if a soul master has a high talent, their soul power will be quickly increased, or they will be made to concentrate on researching soul tools and become the ideal level 10 soul master.

It's as if Soul Masters and Soul Guidance Devices are two irreconcilable beings.

Thousands of years have passed since the clash between the Sun Moon Empire and the Douluo Three Kingdoms, yet their ideologies have not merged at all.

It's one thing that we haven't entered modern society for thousands of years, but does this simplistic concept also need to take thousands of years to develop? In the end, it was only through war that we reached the large-scale environment in Douluo Continent III where Soul Masters combine with Soul Tools.

"So, Huo Yuhao, how do you think Soul Masters and Soul Instructors should develop?" Zhou Yi's question interrupted Huo Yuhao's thoughts.

"First of all, I think we should separate soul masters from soul tools, so that all soul masters can be equipped with or use simple soul tools when they are capable."

"Next, a new category will be added to the Soul Master system: the Soul Guidance System, which refers to Soul Masters who use Soul Guidance Devices as their primary means of combat."

"As for the current Soul Guidance Department, I think it would be more appropriate to call it the Soul Guidance Research Institute. Most of the Soul Guidance Masters there are research and development Soul Guidance Masters who make and study Soul Guidance Devices."

"Just like the relationship between diners and chefs in a restaurant, diners just come to eat. You can't categorize all diners as chefs. It's better to classify them differently."

Huo Yuhao briefly explained what he wanted to say in four paragraphs.

This is also the understanding that Shrek Academy is most likely to accept at present, in Huo Yuhao's view.
