Qin Ming, the Intern Teacher, Grouped by Department

A handsome young man in plain clothes walked into the classroom and stood at the podium.

"Hello everyone, I am your homeroom teacher, Qin Ming, a level 58 assault-type Battle Soul King! My martial soul is the Blazing Wolf."

"Whoa!"

The mention of level 58 instantly drew gasps from the entire class. Such a young Soul King truly surprised these little ones.

Luo Chen was surprised that Qin Ming had started teaching at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy so early; he had probably only graduated a few years ago.

"Alright, let's not waste any time. Everyone, please introduce yourselves one by one, including your martial soul, your level, and your intended path. Good, let's start with the first student in the front row on the right."

The first student was a little girl who looked like a young lady from a wealthy family. She stood up and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Hannah. I am six years old, my martial soul is the Meteor Scepter, and my innate soul power is level seven! I want to follow the support path!"

Before she even finished, the room erupted in an uproar. Level seven innate soul power—if she worked hard, becoming a Soul Saint was only a matter of time. Plus, being a support-type made her highly sought after!

Qin Ming nodded and said, "Very good, please sit down. Next."

The second was a little chubby boy: "My name is Mike, my martial soul is the Wind Baboon, my innate soul power is level six, and I want to follow the assault path!"

Wind Baboon, Luo Chen thought of the one ten thousand years later who died under the "White Tiger Dagger."

"Wind Baboon, wind-attribute, fast speed, but also possesses the powerful attack power of a baboon-type soul beast. Choosing the assault path is perfectly reasonable."

Most of the following students were around level six or seven, with the occasional level eight.

Soon, it was the turn of Luo Chen's group of four.

Shi Mo stood up first and said, "Shi Mo, martial soul Black Tortoise, level eight, following the defense path."

Shi Mo stood up silently: "Shi Mo, martial soul Black Tortoise, level nine, defense path."

While everyone could accept Shi Mo's level eight, Shi Mo's level nine made the whole class gasp.

Qin Ming's eyes lit up: "Black Tortoise martial soul, bloodline of an ancient divine beast, very good. You two are brothers, right?"

"Yes, Teacher, we are twin brothers."

"Excellent! Then you are very likely to develop a martial soul fusion skill!"

Qin Ming said a few more words before letting them sit down. Su Heng stood up with a grin: "Hello everyone, I'm Su Heng, and my martial soul is the Thunder Roc! A level 11 agility-type Battle Soul Master!"

As he spoke, he quite showily summoned his yellow soul ring, purple electricity crackling faintly around his body, looking every bit the expert.

Luo Chen covered his forehead. Are you really going to show off like that, brother?

This display completely captivated the entire class, erupting into a wave of enthusiastic cheers.

Qin Ming was also stunned. A six-year-old Soul Master? He had actually encountered such a genius?

He had heard that there were a few good seeds in this year's intake, but he hadn't expected to have one in his own class.

Finally, after two or three minutes, the class quieted down.

It was finally Luo Chen's turn.

Qin Ming said, "Alright, let's have our last student introduce himself."

Luo Chen hadn't worn the new clothes Meng Shenji had prepared for him, so he still looked quite ordinary.

He stood up, took the Gulu Ball in his hand, and said, "My name is Luo Chen, my martial soul is the Gulu Ball, a level 15 control-type Battle Soul Master!"

Level 15! Control-type!

Qin Ming's eyes widened sharply. He remembered what the Chief had told him—this must be the Chief's personal disciple!

Six years old, level 15.

At this moment, Qin Ming had eyes only for Luo Chen. Luo Chen also wanted to enjoy some cool special effects, so he summoned the Evil Eye.

The moment the Evil Eye appeared, the cheering stopped abruptly. A few seconds later, a few cries could even be heard!

"So scary..." a little girl whispered.

"This soul beast is so ugly, it looks like a big eye, how disgusting!"

In Luo Chen's mind, the Evil Emperor exploded: "Who are you calling disgusting! Who are you calling ugly! This Seat is the most handsome of the Evil Eye clan, what do you ugly humans know! What do you know!"

Luo Chen was speechless. Why was everyone focusing on this ugly eye instead of his bright, shining Great Soul Ring when he was already level 15!

Luo Chen looked at Su Heng with resentment, secretly resolving: In the future, when I contract soul beasts, appearance comes first!

Luo Chen sat down gloomily, and Qin Ming tapped the table to quiet everyone down.

"Alright, next, let's group everyone by type: assault, agility, defense, control, and support."

"Assault-type leader Ji Wushuang, agility-type Su Heng, defense-type Shi Mo, control-type Luo Chen, and support-type Hannah. The five group leaders, stand in a row at the front, and everyone else stand behind your respective captains according to your type."

Five minutes later, the whole class was divided. The assault-type had the most students, followed by agility, then control, with defense and support having the fewest.

Qin Ming then said, "Usually, your current groupings are the mainstream forms on the continent. Of course, this is only the most basic way to group; each type can be further subdivided. For example, student Luo Chen of the control-type has a rather special martial soul that can contract and summon soul beasts, which requires a high level of mental strength from the Soul Master himself. Therefore, I will arrange some corresponding basic training for everyone based on your specific circumstances."

"We will have a test at the end of the term, where I will have you mixed into multiple teams to battle, and I will grade you based on your performance."

Luo Chen was also appointed as the class monitor by Qin Ming. There was no helping it; a genius whose strength was a cut above the rest, and who was also the personal disciple of the Chief of the Education Committee, naturally led Qin Ming to take extra care of him—though it was also due to Luo Chen's talent.

The day's classes ended quickly. Luo Chen arrived at Meng Shenji's office as agreed. Standing at the door, he heard Meng Shenji speaking loudly: "Bai Baoshan, how could you be so negligent?"

"I am not slacking off; I simply cannot find suitable candidates right now, and there is nothing I can do about it! You know exactly what those noble scions are like!" another older voice said.

Meng Shenji calmed down as well and said, "Sigh, our duty is to select talent for Heaven Dou. I hope you can put more heart into it."

Luo Chen waited at the doorway for a moment before slowly knocking and entering Meng Shenji's office, seeing the round and plump Bai Baoshan sitting inside.

Upon seeing Luo Chen, Bai Baoshan felt a bit puzzled, but he quickly realized that this must be the new disciple Meng Shenji had taken in. Meng Shenji had never taken on a disciple before; why would he start doing so now that he was so much older?

However, Bai Baoshan did not ask any further questions and instead turned to walk out of Meng Shenji's office.

Meng Shenji said apologetically, "Little Chen, I apologize for the spectacle; that was the second-ranked member of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's Education Committee."

"Since you have already arrived, let us begin today's training!"

"Given the unique nature of your martial soul, I will take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt a soul beast for you. How many soul beasts are you able to contract at your current level?"
