Douluo Continent: Becoming a disciple of Jing Liu, illuminating all the gods

Chapter 7 Misleading the Young

Wang Dong's beautiful big eyes were fixed on the two purple and one black soul rings on Chen Qiye's body, lost in thought.

Even she didn't dare exceed that limit with her first spirit ring, and only dared to add a thousand-year level spirit ring with her second spirit ring. So how did Chen Qiye manage to do that?

Moreover, despite having a Light attribute martial soul, her Goddess of Light Butterfly seemed to have encountered its nemesis. Under the suppression of that extremely cold aura, even she herself felt a little trembling.

Even Gu Yue was shocked; Chen Qiye's talent far exceeded his expectations.

Even though she had heard about this before, this was the first time Zhou Yi had actually seen Chen Qiye's martial soul and soul rings.

Those three spirit rings, two purple and one black, shocked even her, let alone the freshmen who had just enrolled.

Seeing the students' reactions, Zhou Yi nodded in satisfaction, and Chen Qiye also withdrew his Fragmented Sword Martial Soul at the opportune moment.

"How about that? You give up now? Still want to fight me? Otherwise, you might really be bedridden."

Chen Qiye looked at Gu Yue provocatively.

"snort."

"Hiss!" Chen Qiye cried out in pain.

Why did you step on my foot?

"Nothing, you just look like you deserve a beating."

Gu Yue looked at Chen Qiye with some indifference, as if it had nothing to do with her.

"You... never mind."

Chen Qiye was actually a little afraid of the Silver Dragon King and dared not be too angry. If the Silver Dragon King disliked him and sent out a dragon claw at night, he would be dead.

"Are you all convinced? If so, then everyone go to the track and run one hundred laps. With your weak physical abilities, you dare to call yourselves geniuses?"

"Just a heads-up, if you can't finish the run within an hour, you're fired!"

Zhou Yi's unquestionable voice rang out again, and this time no one uttered a single unnecessary word. They obediently left through the front door and went to run laps.

After witnessing what had just happened, they were convinced, but they were not willing to admit defeat.

We're all the same age, so why can others do it while I can't?

With this in mind, all other distractions vanished, leaving only the motivation to become stronger.

"It seems these new students are ultimately destined for this fate?"

"Chen Qiye, what are you dawdling about? Hurry up and catch up!" Zhou Yi couldn't help but shout angrily at Chen Qiye's nonchalant attitude.

"Ah, do I have to run too?" Chen Qiye was a little confused and looked at Zhou Yi with some suspicion.

"Isn't this just stating the obvious? You're the class monitor, so you're expected to set an example. I won't impose any other conditions on you, just run a hundred more laps than everyone else."

"Teacher Zhou, if I may be so bold, your teaching methods are wrong!"

Besides improving endurance, what other benefits does running offer? Perhaps it's somewhat useful for those with a weaker foundation.

However, everyone's physical condition is different, and training like running is not suitable for comprehensive exercise. Such blind training will only mislead people.

"What's wrong with that? The original Shrek Seven Devils were trained in this way ten thousand years ago. You're telling me that this teaching method is wrong?" Zhou Yi's tone revealed certainty.

"Teacher Zhou, if that's how you think, there's nothing I can do. Anyway, I'm not going to do that unnecessary running."

"However, there's one thing I need to tell you: your teaching style is only misleading and harmful to students."

Chen Qiye knew that the reason why Shrek Academy was originally set up in a small, dilapidated village was because it was a poor, runner-up academy with no facilities. The only way to train was by running.

After all, there's not much in the village except for lots of open space!

"Chen Qiye, do you think you're that strong? You need to know that there are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. You don't even participate in the training I set up. Shrek Academy has many geniuses who are more outstanding than you, and many geniuses who work harder than you," Zhou Yi said coldly.

"Really? But Teacher Zhou, I also grew up in Shrek Academy. Who could surpass me, let alone in this academy, or even in the entire continent?"

Chen Qiye rolled his eyes at Zhou Yi.

"Whether I participate or not is my business, it's up to you." With that, she left the classroom.

Stepping out of the freshman teaching building is Shrek Square. Shrek Square isn't very large, about 300 meters around. For an ordinary person, running a hundred laps around the square would be no easy feat. But for these young students with the foundation of Soul Masters, it's not difficult at all; if they run seriously, they can finish in an hour.

Chen Qiye swaggered onto the playground, found a shady spot, took out a watermelon from his soul tool, and started eating it. The students from Class One kept drifting towards him.

At this moment, most of the students in the class were dissatisfied with Chen Qiye's actions, but some were impressed by his strength, while others were simply curious.

Ultimately, they were wary of Chen Qiye's strength and said nothing.

"Little Qiye, why are they doing such meaningless things?" Jingliu transmitted his thoughts to Chen Qiye.

Although Mirror Stream is inside Chen Qiye's body, as long as Chen Qiye agrees, Mirror Stream can see what Chen Qiye sees.

"Who knows? Maybe it's just that fish-like, rotten faith!"

"Faith, you say?"

"What's wrong, Master!"

"Why? I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest now."

"it is good."

It's unclear which word touched Jingliu, but she fell silent, and Chen Qiye didn't press her further. They simply ate their watermelon, watching Gu Yue on the playground.

Why are you here?

Zhou Yi had already arrived at Shrek Square and was standing there quietly watching the students running. Her gaze was quickly drawn to Wang Dong, and her expression changed slightly before returning to normal.

Time flew by, and as the number of laps increased, the runners' breathing gradually became heavier. At this point, their physical fitness and cultivation levels became apparent. Zhou Yi hadn't forbidden the use of soul power, so everyone relied on soul power to recover their stamina for the long run.

More than half the time had passed when Zhou Yi's voice suddenly rang in the ears of every trainee, "Speed ​​up, use my position as the finish line."

Just as she was speaking, Wang Dong had already darted past her with a "whoosh" and was the first to complete one hundred laps.

After running one hundred laps at an extremely fast pace, Wang Dong's handsome face was flushed. He slowed down, panting a little, and walked around the track one more time before stopping.

Next, Gu Yue rested her hands on her knees, her face flushed. No one could have imagined that a girl's physical strength and endurance would surpass that of most of them.

This girl, possessing an elemental martial soul, seemed to be a darling of the heavens. During physical training, she appeared noticeably more relaxed than others, not because of superior physical abilities, but because she naturally benefited from the influence of all the elements in the air. The wind element made her agile, the light element replenished her energy, the fire element filled her with power, the earth element strengthened her will, and the ice element calmed her—almost every element was helping her.

Gradually, some trainees began to complete 100 laps. Huo Yuhao also completed a full lap with Wang Dong's help.

Upon seeing the martial spirit that Wang Dong displayed, almost all the students, regardless of gender, gasped in astonishment.

All the trainees completed 100 laps within the allotted time and stood relaxed in Shrek Square.

Zhou Yi turned to the students expressionlessly and said calmly, "Those whose names I call, please step forward: Cheng Cheng, Qiu Jianrao, Tang Dao, Shangguan Chentian, Lin Zeyu, Zhuge Yun, Tai Long, Tang Ling, and Yun Xiaopiao."
