Douluo Continent.

Notting Academy.

"Since when do work-study students have the right to eat on the second floor?"

Thud!

A mocking voice reached the ears of Ji Feng.

He looked up.

A boy of about eleven years old stood there.

Looking down at him.

From his vantage point.

His eyes were filled with nothing but indifference.

"So what if you're a noble? So what if you're a tuition-paying student?"

"I accept your challenge, but do you even have the qualifications to be my opponent?"

"Hmph!"

Tang San sneered.

Protecting Xiao Wu, he said, "You can bully me all you want, but if you dare to bully Xiao Wu, then prepare to face defeat!"

With that said.

The pair walked swaggeringly toward the second floor.

Ji Feng had just been defeated by Tang San.

He was nearly knocked unconscious.

[Ding]

[Detected that the host has transmigrated to Douluo Continent]

[Conditions met, beginning to bind the Honor of Kings Hero Template System]

[Binding successful!]

"System?"

On his way back.

Ji Feng heard a voice.

As a transmigrator.

Having read plenty of web novels in his past life.

He naturally knew what a system meant.

This was the essential golden finger for any transmigrator!

"I must be the most miserable transmigrator, right? Getting stepped on by the Son of the Plane right at the start. Hurry, hurry, hurry, what functions do you have, System!"

Ji Feng was filled with a thirst for knowledge.

With a thought in his mind.

The system panel unfolded.

[This system aims to help the host become a true powerhouse of Douluo Continent.]

[The host can currently awaken the first Honor of Kings hero template]

[Awakening an Honor of Kings hero template grants you all the abilities of that hero from Honor Continent!]

"Honor of Kings hero template!?"

"Honor of Kings!?"

In his past life, as a ten-year veteran player.

He knew this game inside and out.

Looking at the system introduction.

It seemed that by awakening a template, he would gain the hero's abilities.

"That's great!"

"Let's see what hero template I can awaken now!"

Thinking of this.

Ji Feng was incredibly excited.

Swish!

The next second.

The panel unfolded.

Hero Template: Hou Yi

Role: Marksman

Status: Awakenable

Awakening Quest: Sign-in (0/4)

Sign-in? It seems I can awaken this hero after signing in for four days.

Ji Feng's eyes flashed.

It's actually Hou Yi!

As a player who frequently played the gold lane.

He was more than familiar with Hou Yi.

Although Hou Yi was a stationary marksman.

And quite prone to dying.

Once his late-game items were complete.

He was incredibly formidable in team fights.

I never expected my first template to be Hou Yi.

Sign me in!

[Ding]

[Sign-in successful]

[You have obtained your first passive skill: Punishing Shot]

[Punishing Shot]: Each basic attack hit grants 8% attack speed (stacks up to 3 times). At max stacks, basic attacks fire 3 arrows for a total of 150% damage, with each arrow carrying 100% orb effects, lasting 3 seconds (duration refreshes on hit).

Isn't this Hou Yi's passive skill!?

And it's the most complete, un-nerfed version of his passive!

Heaven-defying!

Looking at the skill description.

Ji Feng was dumbfounded.

8% attack speed per hit, three stacks meant 24%!

At three stacks, he fires three split arrows.

Each arrow deals 150% of the total damage!

In other words, if he originally dealt 100 damage, the three split arrows would deal a total of 150 damage!

As for the orb effects, that was even more heaven-defying.

100% orb effect meant 100% trigger rate for equipment effects.

One arrow triggers one effect.

Three arrows meant triggering three equipment effects instantly.

If an equipment effect was lifesteal.

Then the three split arrows would trigger lifesteal three times in an instant.

But I don't have any equipment right now.

Suddenly.

Ji Feng realized this problem.

Although he had the hero template.

He lacked the equipment.

Which meant he couldn't trigger those orb effects.

Once I can obtain equipment, won't I be able to recreate the glory of the lifesteal-pump Hou Yi of the past here on the Douluo Continent!?

Thinking of this.

Ji Feng felt like he was going to float away.

[Ding]

[Detected that the host is currently on the Douluo Continent]

[Granting current template an additional passive]

[Additional Passive]: Killing monsters grants soul power, accelerating the host's soul power progression.

Holy crap, I'm invincible.

It seems the system is considerate, fearing I'll level up too slowly.

Or is this a trait of Hou Yi's "fast hands or nothing"? It doesn't want me to stop, forcing me to keep farming even here on the Douluo Continent?

With this skill in hand.

Ji Feng felt he could no longer just lie flat.

He had to be like in a game.

Either farming monsters or on the way to farm them.

"This world, the Star Dou Great Forest, with so many soul beasts, it's enough for me to grind."

Ji Feng muttered to himself.

Signaling no problem.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

On the playground.

A figure appeared.

Dressed in black, sporting a buzz cut.

"Yu Xiaogang!"

Ji Feng narrowed his eyes.

What was Gangzi doing here looking for him at this hour?

Yu Xiaogang walked over: "Student, stop!"

"Do you need something from me?"

Ji Feng certainly recognized Yu Xiaogang.

However, he maintained a calm expression.

Yu Xiaogang looked stern: "Yesterday, you bullied your classmates. This is a serious violation of school rules, do you know that?"

"Who did I bully?"

"Tang San! The work-study student, Tang San and Xiao Wu from Dorm Seven! Did you think I wouldn't know?"

Yu Xiaogang said coldly.

Watching Gangzi's condescending expression.

Ji Feng was very annoyed: "I only know he is your student, Master. Are you here to settle a personal grudge under the guise of public duty?"

"You!"

"Sharp-tongued for such a young age!"

"If you obtain your classmates' forgiveness, as a teacher of this academy, I can choose not to pursue this."

After speaking.

Behind Yu Xiaogang.

Tang San's figure appeared.

Tang San stepped forward.

"Tang San!"

Ji Feng's heart skipped a beat.

If Tang San didn't hold a grudge.

He wouldn't be Tang San.

Sure enough.

As soon as he appeared.

He looked at Ji Feng and said: "Teacher, they relied on Xiao Yuchen to bully Xiao Wu, I cannot forgive them."

Tang San shook his head.

"Good!"

"This student Ji Feng, from now on, you can leave Notting Academy."

"What!?"

Ji Feng widened his eyes.

Watching Yu Xiaogang make the final call.

He was actually being so blatant about expelling him from the academy.

It was somewhat unbelievable.

His background was far better than Tang San's, whose father was a blacksmith.

This Yu Xiaogang actually made the decision to expel him from Notting Academy!?

He found it inconceivable.

"I hope that in the future, you will first learn how to respect others."

"Be kind to others!"

The two brushed past each other.

Tang San warned in a stern tone.

Upon hearing this.

Ji Feng's heart sank.

"Regardless of anything else, I must go home first!"

Originally, Ji Feng thought that Yu Xiaogang was just speaking casually.

After all, he did not have that much authority.

To decide whether he could stay or go.

But after returning to the dormitory.

He saw his luggage and clothes had been packed up.

Then, in the blink of an eye, a notice of dismissal.

Was delivered before him.

"By the decision of the academy leadership, student Ji Feng, you have been expelled from Notting Academy."

The Notting Academy instructor spoke.

Without showing any mercy.
