Douluo Continent: Rebuilding the Clear Sky Sect

Chapter 44 Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf (Bonus Chapter!)

After the banquet, the group had become quite familiar with each other.

Because they were drunk and unable to travel, the group stayed overnight at the Po clan's place.

The next day, the three clan leaders still showed no intention of leaving.

These old buddies rarely get to see each other, so how could they not have a good time getting drunk?

However, they arranged for vehicles to be provided so that Tang Fei could take his four disciples and leave first.

To participate in the Soul Master Competition, the standard team configuration is seven people, but Hammer Academy has only managed to gather five people so far. Tang Fei has a lot of things to do, so he doesn't have time to waste.

After breakfast, the group began their return journey.

The return journey was much faster than the journey there, and it only took a little over ten days to get back to Tiandou City.

If you do the math, this trip took almost two months, and that was assuming everything went smoothly.

Back to Smartisan Academy.

The dilapidated courtyard was gone. Scarface and Skinny had indeed rebuilt the entrance to Hammer Academy as Tang Fei had instructed.

The wide gate is nearly twenty meters long and is made of stone, seemingly integrated with the courtyard wall.

The towering stone pillars are carved with magnificent magic patterns, and the words "Hammer Academy" are written in large characters above the entrance.

Upon entering the gate, a massive rock exudes a sense of solidity, with the shape of a casting hammer carved on it, echoing the four characters "Hammer Academy" above the gate.

Tang Fei nodded. Although the new storefront lacked luxurious decorations, its simple and elegant style was very pleasing to the eye, and that was enough.

"Gentlemen, our college's dormitories are located by the lake behind the teaching building. Since we don't accept students from outside the college, each of us can have a room to ourselves."

Tang Fei introduced them to the four people with a smile.

Bai Chenxiang asked, "Cousin, since this is an academy, when can we start our classes?"

"No rush. Starting tomorrow, I will teach you basic techniques to enhance your strength. Right now, our seven-person team is not yet fully formed. I'll go see if I can find two more teammates first," Tang Fei said.

The group nodded and immediately parted ways with Tang Fei to tidy up their own dorm rooms.

Tang Fei headed towards the teaching building. He had entrusted the task of finding two team members to Tang Yuehua, and presumably, after two months, they should have found suitable candidates.

"Tang Fei, over here!"

Suddenly someone shouted, "It's Scarface!"

He walked over with two young people, a man and a woman.

"Tang Fei, these are the team members that Madam has found."

As he spoke, Scarface introduced the two men, "This is Tang Fei, and he will be your captain from now on."

"Hello Tang Fei, my name is Qin Chaofan, I am sixteen years old, and my martial soul is the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf." The boy introduced himself with a smile, looking very approachable.

The other woman looked impatient and said, "Ning Caiwei, Martial Soul: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."

As she spoke, she muttered under her breath, "How could my uncle have put me in a place like this..."

Her voice was soft, but everyone present could still hear it clearly.

Scarface's expression instantly changed. He said, "Ning Caiwei, if you're not satisfied, you can leave anytime. Remember, although Hammer Academy is newly established, it follows an elite path; not just anyone can come!"

Ning Caiwei was clearly embarrassed by his outburst, her face turning pale and then red.

Tang Fei smiled and stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, now it's my turn to introduce myself. My name is Tang Fei, I'm almost twelve years old, and my martial soul is..."

He hesitated for a moment, then said, "My martial spirit is a forging hammer."

After thinking it over, he decided it was best not to reveal his true martial soul for the time being, so as not to expose the Clear Sky Hammer and cause trouble, since they were not members of an affiliated clan.

The person with the scarred face who was assigned to teach at Hammer Academy by Tang Yuehua was obviously no ordinary person.

He guessed Tang Fei's thoughts and whispered, "You don't need to worry. Both of these people were personally selected by Lord Yuehua. The boy's father was once an outer sect steward of the Haotian Sect, and the girl is a direct descendant of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Even if they reveal the Haotian Hammer, it's nothing."

Tang Fei nodded, surprised that there was such a connection.

It seems that in selecting team members, in addition to ability, background is also a major factor to consider. Tang Yuehua really put her heart into it.

He scrutinized the man and woman, pondering the formation.

Tang Yuehua's Moon Pavilion is a place frequently visited by royalty and nobility, so it's normal for her to know people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. A support-type martial soul is exactly what the team lacks.

The latest novel is first published here!

Tang Fei, however, was puzzled by the boy's question. He asked, "Our team is most lacking in support and control-type Soul Masters. I can understand the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, but why add the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf?"

He asked Scarface in a low voice.

It should be noted that with Tang Fei, Tai Long, and Yang Dianfeng, the team already has three powerful attack-type Soul Masters. They are not lacking in attack power at all, but rather lack sufficient control over the battlefield.

Scarface said with a wry smile, "There's nothing we can do. Young control-type Soul Masters are easy to find, but their talent is generally not outstanding, while the more outstanding ones have already been recruited by some universities."

"You should know that control-type Soul Masters are the soul of a Soul Master team. If they have even better talent, they will be sought-after characters anywhere."

Tang Fei nodded, understanding.

Those who lack talent are not considered by Hammer Academy.

Those with good talent look down on Hammer Academy.

That's basically the idea.

"but……"

The scarred man changed the subject, saying mysteriously, "Don't underestimate this Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf. This kind of martial spirit cannot be inherited; it can only be obtained through mutation. And the most abnormal thing about the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf is that it can activate a 'Bloodthirsty' state."

"In Bloodlust state, a Soul Master's attack and speed will be significantly enhanced; most insanely, this is a skill that benefits the entire party!"

"A group benefit?" Tang Fei's pupils contracted sharply. "You mean, as long as there's one Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf in the team, everyone else will benefit from the amplification effect of its Bloodthirsty state?"

"Yes!" Scarface nodded seriously.

Tang Fei gasped in shock.

Regardless of the individual combat strength of the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolves, their collective bloodthirsty state alone is enough to make them top-tier!

"However, there is a prerequisite for the Bloodthirsty Wolf Martial Soul to activate Bloodlust: it can only be used when the overall condition drops below half," Scarface explained carefully.

Tang Fei nodded. Even so, it was terrifying enough. Tang Yuehua's choice of the Bloodthirsty Demon Wolf was an excellent idea.

"So it seems that even without a control-type Soul Master, it doesn't matter. The best control is to defeat the opponent. With the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda amplifying our strength from behind, we can just charge in!" Tang Fei thought to himself.

I'll be adding another chapter today, please vote to encourage me!
