I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Xu Xingyu looked at Wang Dong'er, who was lying on the bed like she had lost her dreams, and was speechless.

Zhou Qi may be an overly strict teacher, but is this really necessary? Is it really necessary to be this strict over just running a hundred or so laps around the track?

Just then, Wang Dong'er, who was lying on the bed, seemed to notice the sound of the door opening and saw Xu Xingyu, who had returned.

Upon seeing Xu Xingyu, Wang Dong'er immediately perked up and rushed over to hug him.

"You're finally back! Do you know how long I've waited?"

Seeing this, Xu Xingyu realized that the person was worried about her because she had been back in the dormitory for too long.

Xu Xingyu patted Wang Dong'er on the back and comforted her, "Sorry, Yan Xue and I were busy with the Soul Guidance Department's assessment, so we came back a little late today."

"Huh, the Soul Guidance Department's exam? Oh! I remember you mentioned before that you wanted to minor in Soul Guidance Devices."

"But won't you be too busy? Teaching both Martial Soul and Soul Guidance courses at the same time is quite a workload."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xingyu patted Wang Dong'er's head and said, "The soul guidance courses here are not difficult for me. After all, the understanding of soul guidance devices here is still far behind that of our Spirit Guidance Tower."

"Moreover, according to the vice dean, I only need to spend half an hour a day on the soul guidance course, because I am still a freshman and it is best to focus on the upcoming freshman assessment first."

"Is that so? Then, Brother Xingyu, after you finish your Soul Guidance Department classes tomorrow, could you accompany me to Shrek Academy's food street?"

Seeing Wang Dong'er looking at him with eyes like an abandoned puppy, Xu Xingyu knew that he no longer had the right to refuse.

"Okay, I'll come back to find you after I finish my Soul Guidance Department classes tomorrow. We'll contact each other using our Soul Guidance communicator."

"Yes! Xingyu-gege is the best!"

The Soul Guidance Communicator is a Soul Guidance Device that the Spirit Tower has been producing in recent years. Its prototype is actually the mobile phone on Earth, except that it is driven by Soul Power.

This soul tool contains a special mineral called soul magnetite. When it comes into contact with soul power, it emits a special kind of electromagnetic wave, which can only be received by the soul magnetite.

By utilizing this property of the Soul Magnet, the Spirit Tower successfully created this groundbreaking invention, similar to a mobile phone.

However, the Soul Magnet's reach is not very wide, so the Spirit Tower did not auction off this invention, but only gave it to its internal members.

After all, if the invention is to be used by the general public, countless signal towers would have to be built across the mainland to make it useful.

Although the Spirit Tower currently enjoys a good relationship with the four major empires of Douluo, it does not have the right to build multiple signal towers.

Moreover, such a large-scale project requires a lot of money, and even the funds available to the Spirit Tower itself cannot support such expenses.

Back to Xu Xingyu and Wang Dong'er, the two had already started chatting about how their first day of school went.

"Wow, your teacher, Ms. Mu, is so wonderful!" Wang Dong'er couldn't help but complain, "Our teacher, Ms. Zhou, is really unreasonable!"

"Her teaching methods don't seem like proper educational approaches at all! Even the military wouldn't be this outrageous, would they?"

Xu Xingyu could only shrug and say, "There's nothing I can do, so just bear with it. Anyway, after the freshman assessment, we'll all be divided into classes based on our martial soul direction. Maybe then you'll have a chance to get rid of your Teacher Zhou."

"Well, speaking of martial spirit paths, which one are you planning to choose?" Wang Dong'er asked Xu Xingyu, seemingly casually.

Judging from Wang Dong'er's hesitant expression, she clearly wanted to be assigned to the same class as Xu Xingyu and take this opportunity to find out Xu Xingyu's martial soul direction to ensure that the two of them were in the same class.

"I would probably choose the control system."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er hurriedly asked, "Why choose the control type? I think Xingyu-gege prefers a more aggressive approach, right?"

"Yes, I do prefer to solve problems through brute force, but don't forget that I possess twin martial souls."

"Although my first martial soul has offensive skills, its overall development direction is more control-oriented. I only behave like a power attacker when I use my second martial soul."

"Therefore, you can theoretically consider me a strong offensive control-type Soul Master. However, due to the special nature of my second spirit, I don't want to expose it too much. So after careful consideration, I chose to focus on my first spirit, the Purple Star, at Shrek Academy. This is the fundamental reason why I ultimately chose the control type."

"Oh, I see." Wang Dong'er replied with a slightly disappointed expression.

Just then, Xu Xingyu teased, "What's wrong, Xiao Dong'er? Are you disappointed that we can't be in the same class?"

Wang Dong'er blushed as Xu Xingyu pointed out her thoughts and retorted, "Who said that! Who cares which class you belong to! I'd rather you stay away from me."

It would be a lie to say Wang Dong'er wasn't disappointed, but since she could see it coming, couldn't she at least try to comfort herself a little?

I thought to myself, I would like to write my martial soul development direction as the control type so that I can be in the same class as you, but knowing Teacher Zhou's personality, once she finds out, she will definitely force me to change it to the power attack type.

You should know that she was really looking forward to being in the same class as Xu Xingyu, but they didn't end up in the same class at the beginning of the semester and then after the freshman assessment, they were still not in the same class.

Wouldn't her plan to win over Xu Xingyu at Shrek Academy become completely disorganized?!

Just as Wang Dong'er showed a pitiful expression, Xu Xingyu suddenly burst into laughter.

"Brother Xingyu, what are you laughing at? Is it so fun to tease me?"

"Yes... oh no, I meant that if you're feeling disappointed because you're worried about not being in the same class as me, there's no need to worry," Xu Xingyu explained, suppressing a laugh. "Because the Control and Offense departments aren't separate! So both departments will be arranged to attend classes together!"

"Oh, I see! I was disappointed for nothing!" Wang Dong'er replied in surprise.

"So you admit that you actually really wanted to be in the same class as me?"

"You... fine, fine, I admit I want to stay with you all the time! But that's just a precaution in case you bring me another new sister!"

"Hehe, let's just pretend that's how it is."

"you!!!!"

"Alright, it's getting late, hurry up and wash up and go to bed. Didn't you say you wanted to go to the food street? If you don't rest early, you might not have the energy to go shopping this afternoon."

"Okay, I understand."

The next day, the food street in Shrektown

The three beautiful girls, each as stunning as a celestial being, looked at each other as if they were mortal enemies on a battlefield, their eyes filled with an unyielding fighting spirit.

Caught between the three women, Xu Xingyu sighed with a weary expression, "Did I forget to check the almanac before going out today?"
