Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 58 Twins

After Ji Lin and his two companions finished their assessment, they did not leave immediately but watched the other two matches from the sidelines. Only after all three matches were over did they bid farewell to Wang Yan and depart.

Although Ji Lin felt it was unnecessary, he didn't want to leave an arrogant impression.

The first round of freshman assessments ended quickly. Today's assessments were mainly to help the freshmen adapt to this intense, competitive assessment style. The intensity of tomorrow's assessments will increase significantly.

There are two rounds of assessments each in the morning and afternoon, for a total of four rounds. The third day is even more grueling, with each team undergoing five rounds of assessments. The entire freshman assessment process only takes three days.

This is not only about training the students' combat skills, but also their ability to fight a marathon. The competition consumes not only soul power, but also physical strength.

Thanks to Zhou Yi's grueling training, the students in Class 1 of the new students have better endurance than those in other classes.

After the first day of competition and observation, Ji Lin and his team were completely certain that there were no opponents in this group who could pose a threat to them. Apart from Ji Lin and Xiao Xiao, there was only one other freshman above level 20.

Under the intense competition format, the other freshmen weren't stupid either. In order to achieve better results, they simply went easy on Ji Lin and his team.

Ji Lin and his two companions easily won all four matches on the second day, achieving a perfect record of five wins out of five.

"Ji Lin, you three come here for a moment." After the competition ended the next day, Wang Yan called Ji Lin and the other two to him.

"Teacher Wang." Hearing Wang Yan call them, the three of them came to Wang Yan.

"The three of you achieved a perfect record of five wins in the first five matches. Keep up the good work in the remaining matches and strive to enter the top 64 to participate in the ranking matches. However, tomorrow's five matches will not be as easy as today's. After today's matches, there will be a redraw, and those teams with five losses will be directly eliminated. In addition to avoiding clashes between teams from the same class, the previous records will also be taken into account during the draw. Tomorrow's match will definitely still be held in our 33rd district, but you may encounter one or two strong challenges from other teams."

Wang Yan liked taking care of the students and had a good impression of Ji Lin and the other two. He was especially interested in Huo Yuhao, so he gave the three of them a special reminder.

He still doesn't know Ji Lin's true strength, and even Xiao Xiao hasn't revealed her second-ring Soul Master cultivation.

The three nodded and said, "Thank you, Teacher Wang. We will do our best."

Wang Yan smiled slightly and said, "That's good. Go back and get some rest."

On their way back, the three of them ran into Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er, and they chatted for a while.

Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er's team also won all five matches.

The group returned to the freshman dormitory together. Xiaoxiao's dormitory was also on the fourth floor, not far from Wang Qiu'er and the others. The group often hung out together. Xiaoxiao was very popular among the girls and had a good relationship with most of the girls in the class. Even Wang Qiu'er had a good impression of this petite and cute girl.

Silent all night.

The next morning, the three of them returned to the assessment area.

Because they had the best results in the previous five rounds of competition, they remained in Zone 33. After a re-draw, five new groups of freshmen were added to continue the assessment with them.

These freshmen certainly won't be the top students from other regions, so they definitely won't face the strongest opponents in the next five round-robin matches. But compared to the previous matches, it might not be as easy.

At least Xiaoxiao can't hide it anymore.

Wang Yan glanced at Ji Lin and the other two before announcing, "Alright, everyone's here. Since Ji Lin's team from Class 1 achieved the best results in this region in the previous five rounds of competition, they are the seeded team for this region. They will be the first to compete according to the competition order. The first match of the sixth round in District 33 will be between Ji Lin's team from Class 1 and Huang Chutian's team from Class 7."

As both sides entered the arena simultaneously, Ji Lin and his companions were immediately surprised to find that the opposing team had a pair of female students who looked exactly alike. Both female students had long blue hair, delicate and rosy-cheeked faces, and looked very cute. They seemed to be a little younger than them.

Ji Lin glanced at the twins and knew that they must be Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo, the sisters who appeared in the original work. The two of them possessed a martial soul fusion skill, and Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao alone were no match for them. It seemed that he could no longer hide his abilities.

In front of the twin sisters was a tall, burly male student, clearly Huang Chutian, who was also the leader of their small team of three.

"My name is Huang Chutian. To their left is Lan Susu, and to their right is Lan Luoluo. Please give me your guidance."

"My name is Ji Lin, this is Xiao Xiao, and this is Huo Yuhao. Please give me your guidance," Ji Lin introduced.

Ji Lin's team maintained the same formation of one in front and two behind, as did the opposing team.

Huang Chutian was at the front, with Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo behind him. Each team could only have one offensive-type Soul Master, and clearly, these twin girls wouldn't be offensive.

Teacher Wang Yan said in a deep voice, "The assessment begins."

Both swiftly released their martial spirits. Huang Chutian roared and pounded his chest with both fists, unleashing his martial spirit. His body instantly swelled to about 1.8 meters tall, his thick muscles bursting through his school uniform. His exposed skin turned completely iron-black.

Two yellow spirit rings rose simultaneously from beneath his feet, revealing him to be a powerful attack-type spirit master of level 20 or above.

Two spirit rings, both yellow, appeared beneath Lan Luoluo and Lan Susu's feet. With a flick of their heads, their long blue hair billowed out, quickly blossoming in the air and transforming into strands of blue hair over ten meters long. They floated in the air without touching the ground.

Clearly, their martial spirit is their hair.

All three were Great Soul Masters above level 20, but they were unlucky to fail to win first place in their original region, as they encountered a team that countered them and lost a match.

On the other side, Ji Lin plunged the Heavenly Fire Greatsword into the ground with his right hand, his entire body wreathed in flames, resembling a god of fire. The two young girls, Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo, looked at Ji Lin with starlight in their eyes, their gazes instantly changing. They exclaimed softly, "So handsome!"

Huang Chutian's face darkened. He was speechless at the two infatuated girls on his side, even though he also thought the greatsword on the other side was very gorgeous and cool.

He let out a low roar and suddenly strode towards Ji Lin. His footsteps landed on the ground with a loud "thump, thump, thump".

Ji Lin did not dodge. He released the Heavenly Fire Greatsword with his right hand and clenched his fists to meet the attack.

With a loud "boom," fists collided, and Huang Chutian was knocked back several steps by Ji Lin before he could regain his balance.

He looked at Ji Lin with a look of surprise and uncertainty. In the previous exchange, he was obviously at a disadvantage, but how could that be? He had a beast spirit, while Ji Lin had a weapon spirit. In terms of strength, he, a beast spirit, was actually no match for a weapon spirit.
