The Spirit Pagoda had sent Wu Changkong and Long Bing to Eastsea Academy to teach Meng Xinghe and Gu Yuena. Logically, the married couple only needed to be responsible for Meng Xinghe and Gu Yuena.
However, since they had become Class One's teachers, they had to be responsible for every student in Class One.
After all, dedication to one's post, caring for students, educating others, and setting an example were the most basic virtues of a teacher.
As long as Wu Changkong remained Class One's teacher, every student sitting in Class One was his student. He should treat them equally and teach according to their aptitude.
Taiwan Novel Network had a vast library, ƚɯƙαɳ.ƈσɱ, with an incredibly comprehensive collection.
However, the students were in complicated moods and needed time to calm down. This was not a good time for a lesson.
The couple exchanged a knowing glance. Long Bing then announced with a smile, "All right, students, that's it for today. Classes will officially begin tomorrow. After class, relax and adjust your mindset. Class dismissed."
With that, Wu Changkong and Long Bing left the classroom hand in hand.
Seeing the two homeroom teachers leave, the Class One students quickly gathered around the seats by the rear windows, chattering away like sparrows.
Naturally, they avoided Gu Yuena. It was not that they did not want to approach her, but the aura she gave off made them feel intimidated, and they did not dare make contact with her.
"Meng Xinghe, you're level thirty-five at nine years old. You must be a top genius from the legendary top sect, the Body Sect, right?"
"With such beautiful eyes, your Noumenon Martial Soul must be your eyes, right?"
"Um... would it be convenient to add each other on Douluo Number?"
Xie Xie watched the scene over there. He had originally wanted to go over and say hello, but immediately abandoned the idea.
There were too many people. If he went over now, it would seem like he was rushing to curry favor. He was not someone who fawned over the powerful.
So, he looked at Tang Wulin, the first friend he had ever made in his life. "Wulin, you treated me to a meal yesterday, so I'll treat you today."
"There are two really delicious places on the food street near the academy. Come on, I'll take you there."
"Sure." Tang Wulin's eyes lit up. "What places are they?"
"One is an old-established sealed-pot beef restaurant, and the other opened three years ago. It's called Huo Family Fish Restaurant, and their fish is superb."
As they talked, they walked out of the classroom with their arms around each other's shoulders.
Elsewhere, Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi looked at Wei Xiaofeng.
The three of them had been childhood companions. Zhang Yangzi had the highest Innate Soul Power, while Wang Jinxi had the best Martial Soul quality. Wei Xiaofeng ranked last in both respects, but because his Soul Spirit was the Azure Shadow Serpent, which shared the same origin as his Martial Soul, his Soul Power cultivation had always remained ahead of theirs.
Wei Xiaofeng's Soul Power was now level twenty-two, while Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi were both only at the peak of level nineteen.
Meng Xinghe's side was bustling with activity, and both Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi wanted to go over and make friends. But they could not disregard their childhood friend's feelings. Having grown up together, they knew all too well how proud Wei Xiaofeng was. After receiving such a blow, he had to be feeling terrible.
At that moment, Wei Xiaofeng frowned deeply. His rather handsome features, coupled with his somewhat thin lips, gave him a cold, snake-like air.
His two childhood friends' actions warmed his heart, but he still said arrogantly, "Come on, we're going too."
He was arrogant, sure, but he was not an idiot.
The blow of reality and Teacher Wu's earnest guidance during today's class had made him truly understand that there was always someone better, and always a higher sky beyond the sky.
As the old saying went, when the gap between two people was small, you would feel jealous and desperately want to surpass the other person. But when the gap became so vast that you were not even qualified to glimpse their back, you would not feel jealous. Instead, you would see yourself clearly.
In the past, he had been like a frog at the bottom of a well, believing the world's talents were nothing special. Looking back at his former self now, he felt like someone outside the well looking down at a frog within it.
Seeing Wei Xiaofeng approach with a cold expression and two "lackeys" behind him, the students instinctively made way for the three of them.
When he arrived, Wei Xiaofeng opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say. For a moment, he was so awkward that he did not know what to do.
Fortunately, his two childhood friends helped break the ice. "Hello, Meng Xinghe. I'm Zhang Yangzi. Please guide me in the future."
"Hello, Meng Xinghe. I'm Wang Jinxi. Please guide me in the future."
With his two childhood friends setting an example, Wei Xiaofeng came to his senses and followed suit. "Hello, Meng Xinghe. I'm Wei Xiaofeng. Please guide me in the future."
Meng Xinghe nodded with an easy smile and shook hands with each of them.
"I'm Meng Xinghe. It's a pleasure to meet you."
After chatting with his classmates for a while, they added one another on Douluo Number and even created a class group.
Afterward, Meng Xinghe politely declined several classmates' invitations for lunch, left the academy, and headed for the Spirit Pagoda.
Inside the Soul Guidance car, Sima Jinchi drove from the front seat, while Meng Xinghe, Gu Yuena, and Xu Xiaoyan sat in the back.
All three were core disciples of the Spirit Pagoda. Gu Yuena's teacher was the Spirit Pagoda's vice tower master, Heavenly Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu. Meng Xinghe's temporary teacher was Dong Qianqiu, the tower master of the Spirit Pagoda's East Sea Branch Tower and the Demonic Soul Douluo.
Although Xu Xiaoyan had no teacher, she had signed the highest-level S-rank Talent Contract with the Spirit Pagoda.
"Xinghe, our physical constitutions are about good enough to begin making Battle Armor."
Sitting in the middle, Gu Yuena looked at Meng Xinghe on her right and said, "To make Battle Armor, I chose both mecha design and mecha manufacturing. I'm now a third-rank mecha designer and a fourth-rank mecha manufacturer."
Mecha design required design concepts, so experience was important. Over the past three years, she had needed to balance cultivation with learning about humanity. She had not deliberately accumulated knowledge in this area and had merely gone with the flow, which was why she was only a third-rank mecha designer now.
Mecha manufacturing had no such limitations. Furthermore, the carving knife formed from elemental power was connected to her mind, giving her an innate advantage in mecha manufacturing. Thus, even while dividing her attention among many tasks, she had still become a fourth-rank mecha manufacturer.
"Nana," Meng Xinghe asked as he looked at Gu Yuena, "do you want to design your own Battle Armor, or should I help you design it?"
"Uh, is there a difference?" Gu Yuena asked in confusion.
"Yes. Something you design yourself may not be the best, but it will definitely suit you best. This is especially true for you."
Meng Xinghe answered with a smile, "Besides, you're also a mecha manufacturer, so it would be best if you personally manufactured your own Battle Armor. I'll provide the metals needed to make it."
He was a Soul Engineer, but in modern terms, he was a scientist, a mecha designer, a mecha manufacturer, a mecha repairman, and a blacksmith.
The first Divine Craftsman in the history of Douluo Planet was not the one recorded in history, but Meng Xinghe himself.
Huang Meng, the Golden Behemoth Douluo and one of the Federation's two current Divine Craftsmen, had also been taught by him.
Huang Meng's true body was a Golden Behemoth. He had resided within an ancient coin, with his life force almost completely drained away. Meng Xinghe had used Life Metal to save him. At the same time, due to the rules of heaven and earth on Douluo Planet, he had been assimilated into a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and participated in the Reincarnation Plan.
Now, Huang Meng was not only a Divine Craftsman, but also a Limit Douluo, serving as the master of the War God Hall.
