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

Chapter 179 I'm the Team Leader

"Now that the statistics are complete, I'll announce the division of labor. Is that alright?"

Upon hearing Fors's words, everyone in the second group nodded silently. After all, Fors was the strongest among them, and her decision would certainly be the most convincing.

"Great, so firstly, regarding the design, I can help you create a rough outline, and the rest is up to you, the first-level designers, to fill in. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."

But I only have one hour a day to answer your questions, so please write down any questions you have before asking them, okay?

"Yes, yes." The five designers, including Xu Xiaoyan, nodded repeatedly.

"After that, the builders and repairmen will work together on the construction of the mechs. Nan Fusheng and Zheng Qia Ran, you two will lead the lower-level workers in the construction. This way, it will be easier to find and fix any problems. Is that alright?"

"Okay." Nan Fusheng and Zheng Qiaran nodded as well. To make mecha, all four professions are indispensable.

A crucial task for Zheng Qia Ran's mecha repair team is perfecting the mechas. When minor problems arise during the mecha's construction, it's up to the mecha repairmen to fix them.

"Finally, there's the issue of forging. With our level-two forgers, it's impossible to make a high-grade mecha. So, firstly, we'll set the grade of our mecha at white."

Second, regarding the materials for the mecha construction, we'll purchase the rare metals ourselves and then have our designers create a unified design. If you have any further questions, please feel free to add them.

The second group exchanged glances, thinking there shouldn't be any problems. Firstly, because their blacksmith was only at level two, they could only perform a maximum of one hundred forgings.

However, it was simply impossible for one person to supply fifteen people with 100-fold refined metal before the final exams.

Therefore, classifying it as a white-level mecha is correct. After all, a white-level mecha is just an ordinary mass-produced mecha. Even a first-level blacksmith can easily forge enough metal with a little effort.

Hundred-refined metal is a metal added only when forging Yellow-level mechs. Moreover, even Yellow-level mechs are mostly composed of mass-produced metals.

As for choosing the required rare metals, that's not difficult; just find those that are compatible with your martial soul.

"What? Nobody has any questions? Very well, then I declare the meeting adjourned." Fors waved her hand and announced the meeting was over.

"Huh?"

The second group expressed their doubts: "Is it over already? Look, the other groups are still discussing it non-stop!"

Listening to the other groups, the trainees were arguing incessantly. Some disagreed with each other's plans, while others felt that their secondary professions were of a higher level and that the whole group should listen to their plans.

Watching the other groups arguing fiercely, some even seemingly about to fight, the members of the second group couldn't help but look at Fors. This was the benefit of having a leader.

Because Fors Wall possesses overwhelming strength, and her second profession has reached an astonishing level five, who would dare to challenge such a monster?

Just like now, judging from the other groups, they were probably going to be discussing it until the afternoon, but as soon as Fors spoke up, they finished it in just a few minutes.

"Wait, team leader, I have a question." Just then, Zheng Qiaran suddenly called out to Fors.

"Hmm?" Fors turned around in confusion, but she didn't mind Zheng Qiaran calling her team leader or anything like that.

"Team leader, Teacher Wu also mentioned that there will be a team competition in the final exams, and each group can select its four strongest mechs to participate in the team competition. I was thinking, if we have the resources, could we forge yellow-grade mechs to use in the competition?"

"After all, we don't know what the consequences would be if we lost in the team competition. Besides, as the team leader, I think you should have a Yellow-level mech," Zheng Qiaran said methodically.

"Yeah, that's right. As the strongest among us, our team leader should be using a Yellow-level mecha. If she has a Yellow-level mecha, then with her strength and mental power, she'll be the one with the best chance of winning the championship!"

Hearing Zheng Qiaran's words, the others began to echo him. After all, it was known that the higher one's cultivation level and the stronger one's mental power, the more advantages one would have when controlling a mecha.

With Fors's strength, he might actually win the championship. The reason I say "might" is mainly because this competition is about mechs, not the combat power of soul masters.

"No, I don't need to build the mecha." Fors suddenly surprised everyone with her words. "You can build them. As for the teacher, I'll handle that. Don't worry about me being a burden to you."

"But..." Zheng Qia Ran wanted to say something more.

"Alright, Zheng Qiaran, I'm the group leader now. I hereby declare the meeting adjourned." With that, Fors walked out, giving Nan Fusheng a look that signaled him to come with her.

Nan Fusheng smiled helplessly and was about to get up when he suddenly felt a gaze on him. He turned his head and saw Xu Xiaoyan looking pitiful.

This girl, wasn't she giving him the cold shoulder before? How come she's suddenly back to her old ways? Helpless, Nan Fusheng gave Fors a look, signaling her to leave first.

"Tch." Fors rolled her eyes at him and walked away without looking back.

Nan Fusheng stood up and walked to Xu Xiaoyan's side. "Are you worried?"

Xu Xiaoyan nodded.

In terms of overall strength, Xu Xiaoyan was the weakest of the five members of Class Zero.

Xu Xiaoyan's individual combat ability is indeed not strong. She is good at seizing opportunities, but in a one-on-one battle, it can be said that anyone present could defeat her.

Even at night, while astrological soul skills are absolutely valid, once activated, she becomes unable to move. She lacks the ability to sustain attacks.

Nan Fusheng comforted him, "Don't think too much. Your most urgent task now is to break through to level 30 as soon as possible. After reaching level 30, Soul Masters will undergo a qualitative change. Based on your strength at that time, we will help you formulate a direction for building a mecha."

Mechs are just a transition for us; our future goal is still battle armor. We'll definitely pass the final exams.

"Yes, yes, I'll try my best." Xu Xiaoyan nodded vigorously.

"Very good." Nan Fusheng patted Xu Xiaoyan's head. "As long as you can reach level 30 before the final exam, I will have a surprise for you after the final exam."

Xu Xiaoyan didn't object to Nan Fusheng patting her head; instead, she asked curiously, "What's the surprise?"

"It's a secret." Nan Fusheng smiled mysteriously. "Alright, if we keep going like this, people will be watching the show. Let's go."

"Hmm." Xu Xiaoyan only then noticed that the people around them were staring at the two of them in shock, which made her blush slightly, and she said softly.

Nan Fusheng took Xu Xiaoyan's hand and led her out of the classroom. Xu Xiaoyan followed him silently. At this moment, the relationship between the two seemed to ease and become a little closer.
