Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 174 Grouping

Shrek Academy, Class 1 of Freshmen.

With the conclusion of the class monitor selection competition, the freshmen began their first day of formal classes.

Their first lesson was taught by Wu Changkong: the concept of mecha making.

"High-end mechs are no worse than low-end battle armor. The materials and forging are related, the design determines its level, the manufacturing determines whether it can be finally realized, and the repair determines how long it can be used. There is no difference between them and battle armor."

Wu Changkong's theory of mecha manufacturing is not simply about mecha manufacturing; it involves all four aspects: forging, design, manufacturing, and repair. He is talking about the whole picture.

After a morning of classes, everyone's concept of mechs became clearer.

Post-class statistics showed that out of 103 students, only eight chose blacksmithing as their second career. This is reportedly the highest number of students choosing this path in the class's history.

The mecha design team was the largest, consisting of thirty-five people.

Mecha production is second only to that of thirty-two people.

The mecha repair team consists of twenty-eight people.

"get out of class dismissed. Four class committee members, please stay behind." Shen Yi announced the end of get out of class.

When Fors heard that get out of class was over, she grabbed Nan Fusheng's hand and left, which made all the freshmen look on with envy.

Damn it, why don't we have this kind of luck? What is this? This is practically a real-life version of "The Beautiful CEO Falls in Love with Me"!

In the eyes of the freshmen class, although Nan Fusheng was indeed very strong, he was clearly far inferior to Fors. How did the two of them meet?

Judging from how mercilessly Fors attacked Nan Fusheng during the class monitor selection competition, it was obvious that the two were not from the same college, and might not have even known each other for long.

How did things develop into a romantic relationship so quickly? Although many people thought that Fors said that to help Nan Fusheng out of an awkward situation, it's clear now that they were wrong.

So Nan Fusheng quickly reaped the rewards: a wave of hostile stares.

Damn it, they were instantly killed by Fors, and Nan Fusheng was also instantly killed by Fors.

Rounding down, doesn't that mean they're practically Nan Fusheng? They were both instantly defeated, so how come you're the only one who managed to win the heart of the beauty! Many people thought indignantly.

Xu Xiaoyan, on the other hand, seemed rather silent. In the past few days, Xu Xiaoyan had not gone to see Nan Fusheng or anything related to Fors.

On the contrary, she hasn't been bothering Nan Fusheng like before these past few days. Instead, she's been cultivating in her dormitory, clearly prioritizing her cultivation.

This sight made Tang Wulin and the others worry about Xu Xiaoyan's condition, but they didn't know how to comfort her and could only glare angrily at Nan Fusheng. (Nan Fusheng: I'm innocent!)

……

Meanwhile, in the classroom, as the other students left, Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, Wu Siduo, and Luo Guixing remained.

"You will go to the various associations in the college to register and report. At the same time, you also have a task to discuss group arrangements."

You need to divide the other trainees, excluding the four of you, into evenly distributed groups according to the four professions: forging, design, manufacturing, and repair. The number of forging masters is the smallest, with only eight people.

So, besides Tang Wulin, there are seven people left. Therefore, they will be divided into seven groups. You need to understand the strength of each student in your own class. The grouping requirement is that the strength of each of the seven groups should be as even as possible.

Tang Wulin nodded. Unlike the other students, the four of them were assigned to the forging, design, repair, and manufacturing committees, respectively, clearly indicating that they would be working as a team.

Class committee members can receive contribution points as a subsidy, but these contribution points are obviously not free!

"Here is the enrollment registration form, which records each student's secondary profession level, their own soul power level, and martial soul. The four of you can discuss and analyze it."

The other students left one after another, leaving only Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, Luo Guixing, and Wu Siduo in the classroom.

Looking at the documents in front of them, all four remained silent. Luo Guixing maintained a calm demeanor, not uttering a word, a faint smile on his face, making it impossible to know what he was thinking.

Like Luo Guixing, Tang Wulin also wore a smile but did not speak.

Gu Yue leaned back in her chair, her expression calm.

Wu Siduo, on the other hand, had a cool and aloof demeanor, with her arms crossed in front of her.

After a moment of silence, Wu Siduo, the class monitor, finally spoke first.

"This is our first time working together, so I'll go first." As the class monitor, it was only natural for her to step up. With a higher position comes greater responsibility.

"As the teacher instructed, the number of groups will be determined by the secondary profession with the fewest members. Excluding Tang Wulin, there are seven people in the forging group, which means they will be divided into seven groups. Tang Wulin, you can report on the level of the members in the forging group later."

To ensure fairness in the grouping, Gu Yue and Luo Guixing, you should allocate stronger design and manufacturing personnel to those groups with lower forging levels. I will also try to adjust the maintenance personnel for them as much as possible.

The teacher clearly meant that we should try to maintain a balance of strength in each group.

Tang Wulin nodded. "I have five level-two blacksmiths, one level-three blacksmith, and one level-one blacksmith here. Although there is a difference between level-two and level-three blacksmiths, they are relatively better."

However, the level one blacksmiths are significantly weaker, so please try to be considerate of them when pairing them up.

Gu Yue hesitated for a moment, "I don't have any major problems on my end, it's just this... what do you think we should do?"

As she spoke, she took out a document and handed it to the three of them. After reading it, the three of them fell silent.

Simply because the information stated: Fors Wall, Level 5 Designer.

Is this even human? Not only is he incredibly strong, but his second profession has even reached level five! You should know that one of the assessment standards for the inner court of Shrek Academy is that the second profession must reach level five.

However, when they thought about Fors Wall, that monster, they realized that it wasn't impossible.

However, this raises the question of how to allocate resources to the other party, since they are a level 5 professional.

Wu Siduo thought for a moment, "Since we've already agreed to distribute them equally, then in terms of design, Gu Yue, you can choose a few lower-level characters to be in a group with her."

Fors is a Level 5 designer. Following her might even provide some guidance and inspiration to those lower-level designers.

I will try to distribute resources evenly among repair, manufacturing, and forging.

Gu Yue simply nodded but didn't say anything.

Grouping the participants wasn't difficult; the four of them were settled in no time. Perfect similarity was impossible; the goal was to achieve the best possible balance of abilities.

After completing the group assignments, Wu Siduo said, "Then you can all go back and rest. I'll give this group assignment information to Teacher Shen." With that, she left.

Luo Guixing smiled and said, "Then I'll be leaving now." With that, he got up and left.

After Wu Siduo and Luo Guixing left, Gu Yue's face showed some expression. She glanced at Tang Wulin and said, "Being the vice class monitor isn't easy! I think there are still many people who are not satisfied, like that Luo Guixing."

Tang Wulin sighed, "There's nothing I can do. I didn't expect Fors to specifically target me. After all, she killed me instantly back then, and she also took care of Luo Guixing."

As someone who was also eliminated in a flash, I was chosen as the vice class monitor. Isn't that a clear indication that he's inferior to me? I'm not surprised he'll be unhappy about it.

Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. If one day my abilities fall short, or someone is more suitable than me, I don't necessarily want to be the vice class monitor.

Gu Yue frowned. "Hmph, what a narrow-minded fellow. Just based on that, he's inferior to you."
