New Teammate

Because Mu Han nearly slaughtered Shrek City, he even forced the strongest person on Douluo Planet, Heaven-Propping Douluo Yun Ming, to initiate peace talks.

When Xu Xiaoyan applied for a slot to challenge the Spirit Soul Pagoda at the Spirit Pagoda, she was given the green light all the way.

They didn't even let Mu Han and his group go in to challenge it.

If Mu Han's "Self-Destruct Truck" were to explode inside the Spirit Soul Pagoda, the Spirit Pagoda would be in for a disaster.

In the end, Mu Han and Gu Yue helped her select a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Soul that was a perfect fit.

With her fourth spirit ring already being ten-thousand-year level, Xu Xiaoyan would have no issues until she reached the seventh ring.

Furthermore, Xu Xiaoyan's spiritual power talent was quite strong; by the time she reached level eighty, she would likely reach the Spirit Abyss Realm as well.

By then, she would be able to attach an even better third spirit soul!

After the three of them left the Spirit Pagoda, they once again received an invitation from Shrek Academy.

It was said that the Outer Court Dean, Cai Yue'er, had suffered a lapse in moral conduct and had been dismissed and placed in solitary confinement.

In reality, she would have gone into seclusion even without being dismissed.

Not to mention that Cai Yue'er had nearly been physically "ascended" by Mu Han in public this time, her Three-Word Battle Armor had also been completely totaled.

However, Shrek taking the initiative to invite the three of them was unexpected yet reasonable.

Mu Han was a bona fide Divine Craftsman prospect; clashing with him was no good thing.

Although this guy, who was loathed by everyone, had been causing trouble all over the world during this period—digging up the Spirit Pagoda's Vice Pagoda Master, two War Gods from the War God Temple, and nearly blowing up Shrek City—who could blame him when he was a Divine Craftsman prospect?

Once this guy became a Divine Craftsman in the future, wouldn't these factions still have to beg him?

What's more, the power behind Mu Han could not be underestimated.

A quasi-god-level Four-Word Battle Armor Master.

Two semi-god-level Three-Word Battle Armor Masters who possessed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

And a large number of Artificial Soul Saints.

He himself was a weapon of mass destruction comparable to a God-Slaying entity, practically a human God-Slaying weapon!

Facing such a person, even Shrek Academy had to bow its head. A real man knows when to yield and when to stand tall!

Moreover, the current Outer Court Dean was Zhuo Shi.

By seniority, he was Mu Han's grand-teacher.

By personal connection, he had also taught Mu Han a trick or two.

Mu Han would, more or less, give Zhuo Shi some face.

They did not move into the dilapidated Work-Study Student dormitory as in the original story.

After all, they were not Work-Study Students; they even held special student status and could live directly on Sea God Island.

Furthermore, Mu Han still couldn't understand to this day: what benefit did being a Work-Study Student have for cultivation?

Why arrange for excellent students to become Work-Study Students?

Even those sects understood the importance of resource allocation.

Once one became busy running around just to scrape together resources, they would only miss the golden period for cultivation.

However, Tang Wulin, who had come with them from Eastsea Academy, was out of luck.

Because he hadn't stood together with Xu Xiaoyan like Gu Yue had, he not only lacked the qualifications to live on Sea God Island, but he also ended up becoming a Work-Study Student for various reasons.

It was just like in the original story.

But now, Tang Wulin was the only person in the Work-Study Student dormitory.

In the original story, besides the four from Eastsea Academy, there was also a second-year student named Yuan'en Yehui.

But now, Yuan'en Yehui had long since been snatched away by Di Tian at Mu Han's request. By now, her ashes had already been scattered.

Therefore, Tang Wulin was the only one left among the Work-Study Students.

The reason given was that he had chosen to protect his own interests when his friends were being treated unfairly.

Tang Wulin was speechless about this.

Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan stood together and got scolded for it.

Then Mu Han directly blew up Shrek Academy and crippled Cai Yue'er.

Only then did Shrek change its tune.

In the end, it wasn't about his choice, but whether he had picked the right side.

If Mu Han had not crippled Cai Yue'er and even forced Shrek Academy to compromise.

Would it not be Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue who were reduced to being Work-Study Students now?

Might even Mu Han himself have become a Work-Study Student?

Tang Wulin grew up a lot that night.

It was just a pity that it was already too late.

When the class cadre elections took place, Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue naturally excluded him.

The class cadres included one class monitor and two vice-monitors, as well as a forging commissioner, design commissioner, manufacturing commissioner, and maintenance commissioner, corresponding to the four major auxiliary professions.

Different class commissioners represented all students of the same type in the class.

The class monitor and vice-monitors represented the entire class.

At the same time, there were additional contribution points to be gained.

The class monitor received an extra one thousand contribution points per month, the vice-monitors six hundred, and each subject commissioner five hundred.

But in reality, it was the subject commissioners who received more attention.

Could anyone who wasn't a sharp operator even get into Shrek Academy?

They knew very well what was needed here; improving oneself was the most important thing.

The class monitor and vice-monitors represented superior strength, while the subject commissioners represented superior auxiliary profession skills.

While Shrek Academy students competed with one another, they also played a role in supporting each other.

For those who specialized in a certain area, it was likely that the vast majority of students would maintain goodwill.

After all, generally speaking, no one could complete their Battle Armor on their own; they always needed help from others.

And as classmates, a discount was only natural.

"Was that big explosion the other day your doing?" Zheng Yiran's pretty face glowed; her appearance was not much inferior to Xu Xiaoyan's.

"That's right." Mu Han did not deny it.

The original work described Zheng Yiran's appearance as not much inferior to Xu Xiaoyan's, but she appeared much more arrogant.

However, this little girl could not muster any arrogance in front of him.

Still, it was much like the description in the original work; her entire body radiated a dark aura.

This was the Jade Phosphor Snake Martial Soul!

Twenty thousand years ago, the Martial Soul of the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo was the Jade Phosphor Snake Emperor.

But Mu Han was now also known as the Poison Douluo of the new era.

And it was slightly different.

Mu Han also possessed the poison and corrosive attributes of the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.

But he also possessed explosive and combustion characteristics.

Furthermore, in a head-on confrontation, he was even more superior.

In other words, the title of "Strongest Deterrent in History" that Dugu Bo had held for twenty thousand years was gone.

The current Mu Han was the new "Strongest Deterrent in History."

"Then let's team up. I am a control-type poison Soul Master, Martial Soul Jade Phosphor Snake." Zheng Yiran got straight to the point.

"Hmm, that's fine." Mu Han nodded.

His team did not need melee combatants. They only needed long-range attacks while maintaining distance.

To be precise, long-range control.

Mu Han did not think much of Wu Sidu and Xu Yucheng, those two four-ring Soul Ancestors.

Because both of them specialized in melee combat.

As for Yang Nianxia, that three-ring Soul Elder, it went without saying that he could only be used as a meat shield.

Luo Guixing was acceptable, but his "Space" and Mu Han's "World" were essentially overlapping.

And it was the kind that was suppressed by Mu Han in every aspect.

Anything Luo Guixing could do, Mu Han could do as well.

But things Mu Han could do, Luo Guixing could not.

Therefore, when forming a team, Mu Han did not think much of him either.

On the contrary, Zheng Yiran, who was weaker than Luo Guixing, had abilities that could complement Mu Han's.

When it came down to it, compatibility was more important in team formation.

Xu Xiaoyan was also a control-type, but her abilities would not conflict with Mu Han's.

Gu Yue, like Zheng Yiran, had sufficient output and could coordinate with Mu Han's control.

At the same time, Zheng Yiran and Gu Yue's abilities would not overlap.
