Douluo Continent: My Path to Godhood Through Stat Allocation

Chapter 25 Choosing a College

Choosing the right college is crucial.

Fang Ling thought it over and over, but realized she knew nothing.

Having heard about the recommendation letter again, I decided to go to the dean's office for consultation.

The dean is a Soul Master; he must have returned from a major region.

Their understanding of this information is beyond what most people can match.

He will definitely be able to give the best advice.

"Knock knock." Fang Ling knocked on the door of the dean's office.

"Come in." A familiar voice came from inside.

Fang Ling pushed open the door and went inside.

Because of his distinctive feature of having a broken leg, coupled with his status as an outstanding student who was able to graduate early, the dean had some impression of him.

"I remember your name is... Fang Ling, your martial spirit is the Scythe. What brings you here today?"

"Yes, I didn't expect you to remember my name, Dean. I've come today to ask you to recommend an intermediate-level Soul Master academy."

Fang Ling immediately stated his purpose upon entering the room.

The dean nodded knowingly, a faint smile appearing on his rugged face, welcoming Fang Ling, the genius student who was able to graduate early.

Seeing that he was standing still, she even pointed to the chair:

"Sit down and tell me your requirements. Intermediate Soul Master academies are all different."

Fang Ling sat down and said:

"I need systematic instruction in the use and combat of weapon spirits, as well as a large battle arena in the city where the academy is located or a nearby city."

"Weaponry and martial spirit training, combat instruction, and proximity to the Grand Soul Arena... Do you like fighting?"

"Not considering anything else? You know, the intermediate academies above Notting Academy are also eager to recruit talented people."

Fang Ling stated firmly, "These two requirements are indispensable; nothing else will be considered."

"I see. Let me think about it." The dean stroked his beard.

It's rare to find a college that possesses both of these characteristics.

Generally speaking, to avoid having too few visitors and difficulty making money, large-scale battle arenas are usually located in larger cities.

There are more Soul Masters in big cities, and people are generally wealthier.

These are usually the locations of advanced soul master academies.

There are secondary colleges located in big cities.

However, there are fewer systematic tutorials on the use of weapons and martial spirits and combat techniques.

After a moment of contemplation, a thought flashed through the dean's mind, and he remembered a place: "War King Academy!"

This is what he witnessed during his travels in Tiandou.

"In the Kingdom of Silves, at the border of the Kingdom of Barak and the Kingdom of Hagendas, there is a War King Intermediate Soul Master Academy in Vic Ice Edge City that has been operating for twenty-five years."

"Vik Ice Edge City is located on the edge of a big city. Its characteristics are that the people are fierce and tough. There is also a large fighting arena in the city."

"I heard business is booming."

"War King Academy places great emphasis on combat training, which should meet your requirements."

"But..." the dean hesitated.

"Just what?" Fang Ling asked, puzzled.

The dean explained:

"Although both belong to the Heavenly Battle, it is different from the situation where students from the same province can directly enroll with a letter of recommendation. In the Kingdom of Sylves, everyone who wants to enter this academy must undergo an entrance combat assessment."

"Many people take the exam, and the test is very difficult, so many people are eliminated every year."

"Is it difficult? I'm not afraid of difficulties!" Fang Ling's face was beaming with a confident smile.

With his scythe-based combat skills and agility, how could he possibly be afraid of fighting?

It's more accurate to say it's difficult.

It's difficult to get rid of so many people every year, which shows that it's truly a good college.

Because only good colleges attract a constant stream of students.

Shrek Academy, a mediocre academy that has nothing but cultivation, is an exception; there is no other like it in the world of Soul Masters.

"Then, Dean, what do you think of that letter of recommendation?" Fang Ling's eyes gleamed with anticipation.

There was another very important matter I had to discuss with the dean: obtaining a letter of recommendation.

This might lower the difficulty of admission to schools to some extent.

Even if it's useless, it's still necessary to have it somewhere.

"Those who can graduate early are all top students. I can write it for you." The dean chuckled and took out a piece of paper from the drawer.

He quickly wrote a few lines, put them in an envelope, sealed it, and handed it to Fang Ling, offering his blessings:

"I hope you can become a powerful Soul Master in the future."

"Thank you, Dean. I wish you continued success in your cultivation." Fang Ling bowed and then left with the certificate, beaming with satisfaction.

I carefully stacked the letter of recommendation together with the certificate issued by the Spirit Hall's Angel Legion.

He felt a great sense of accomplishment.

The matter at the college has been largely resolved.

After finishing off all the miscellaneous tasks and saying goodbye to those you can say goodbye to, it's time to embark on a new journey.

……

The atmosphere in Dormitory 7 was incredibly lively.

As a farewell banquet, the dishes were plentiful and abundant.

Fang Ling cooked a lot of dishes.

Everyone ate heartily, as if they wanted to rip their stomachs out and stuff them full.

Finally, Xiao Wu touched her round belly and slowly collapsed onto the bed.

Other work-study students were no exception.

Tang San was a little better, but he was still a bit full.

He asked Fang Ling.

"Are you leaving?"

"Ah, we're about to set off."

Fang Ling felt a bit emotional.

Her good relationship with Tang San and Xiao Wu will probably end here.

No matter how well they maintain their relationship, they will definitely become enemies in the future because of the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone.

Then we'll be at each other's throats.

Xiao Wu picked her teeth: "Have you chosen which intermediate Soul Master academy yet?"

"I've chosen. In the Kingdom of Silves, in the city of Vic Ice Edge, it will be called the War King Academy."

Fang Ling gave a brief introduction, then asked with great surprise, "You're almost at level 20, aren't you planning to graduate yet?"

"We'll have to wait a few more years," Tang San said calmly.

Fang Ling tried to advise, "You should prepare for graduation as soon as possible."

"The junior academy is just a transitional place; you won't learn much there. You all have innate full soul power, so don't waste your talent here!"

"We have our own plans, so you don't need to worry about it."

Tang San sneered inwardly.

The teacher's wisdom is unparalleled; you're only at level eleven, how could you possibly know that?

Having already offered advice, Fang Ling didn't say anything more. They could have a proper talk next time they met.

After packing his belongings, he took one last look at Dormitory 7, where he had slept for three years, before leaving.

"Tang San, Sister Xiao Wu, you must cultivate diligently, lest I surpass you!"

"Haha, then good luck." Xiao Wu laughed so hard her stomach hurt from eating too much.

Tang San couldn't help but chuckle, his mind filled with questions: You, a mere first-level innate cultivator, want to surpass our full innate soul power?

That's truly a wild idea!

Because of the huge difference in their talents, even though they had a fairly good relationship, they both thought so.

"Just wait and see, I will definitely catch up with and even surpass you!"

Fang Ling clenched his fist and left with a heart full of pride.

As Xiao Wu and Tang San watched Fang Ling's departing figure, they felt an immense sense of awe, as if he could truly achieve his goals.

But how is that possible?

He's only at the first level of the innate realm; does he really think he can defy fate and change his destiny?

Under the master's guidance, the more Tang San learned about the world, the more he understood the importance of talent.

This is the deep chasm between ordinary soul masters and genius soul masters.

Fang Ling, a first-level innate cultivator, faces immense difficulties on the path to becoming a Soul Master!

I'm afraid we'll never see each other again.

This parting may be forever.

Xiao Wu watched Fang Ling leave, then suddenly remembered a question: "Third Brother, what exactly did your teacher say to you?"

Tang San was still lamenting how fate had played a cruel trick on him when he heard her words. He recalled, "Let's wait until we're in sixth grade."

"At that time, the teacher said he would recommend us to a very powerful monster academy."

"Monster Academy?"

"The teacher didn't tell me more, but said it was a very prestigious academy."
