Before long, their homeroom teacher, Mu Jin, came to the classroom. She first glanced over all the students and had everyone introduce themselves.

Ning Tian, Wu Feng, Gu Chen, Xie Huanyue, and the other students introduced themselves one after another.

Gu Chen undoubtedly became the center of attention for the entire class.

With thirteen levels of soul power, he had beaten Xu Sanshi flat. Since Shrek Academy was founded, there had never been such an incredible student.

Next, Mu Jin cleared her throat and said, "I have an announcement. Gu Chen will be the class monitor of Class Nine. Does anyone have any objections?"

The moment those words came out, Freshman Class Nine fell silent.

What?

Who would dare object?

Xu Sanshi had been beaten into a turtle lying on the ground. They had no desire to taste the fists of a Blue Silver Grass Soul Master.

Mu Jin could not help but smile at the sight of everyone falling silent.

These troublemakers had finally been put in their place.

In the past, every freshman class would have a few troublemakers challenge the strongest class monitor. Now, not only did no one dare step forward, they did not even dare speak loudly.

Sure enough, you still needed a hard fist.

After that, Freshman Class Nine entered a frenzied training mode. Gu Chen served as class monitor and guided their training. Whenever they needed medicinal baths, they took medicinal baths; whenever they lacked resources, they took them from the Martial Soul Department.

Yan Shaozhe was extremely generous about it, directly opening a back door for Class Nine and providing them with all the resources they needed.

Freshman Class Nine immediately began living like immortals.

By comparison, Freshman Class One became hell. Not only did their daily training intensity exceed the limit, but they did not even have medicinal baths. Miserable cries filled the place.

Whenever someone took the lead in resisting, that old hag Zhou Yi would expel the student on the spot. She also harshly condemned Class Nine's medicinal baths, believing that flowers raised in a greenhouse could not withstand sunlight.

What she did not know was that all the students of Freshman Class One envied Freshman Class Nine.

The others had such a good homeroom teacher and class monitor, while they had neither. They could only lower their heads and suffer in silence.

As the saying went, "As long as you are willing to endure hardship, there will be endless hardship to endure."

Time flew by, and a week passed.

At noon, on the training field.

Gu Chen had been training together with the students of Freshman Class Nine for exactly one week.

Today happened to be their practical combat class.

At that moment, Mu Jin stood at the very front of the formation and said solemnly, "For the next period of time, you will undergo special combat training. Gu Chen will be your special training opponent. Prepare for the Freshman Tournament three months from now. Anyone who is afraid may withdraw from school now."

Unexpectedly, no one objected. At most, they wailed over having Gu Chen as their special training opponent. He was truly making their lives miserable.

After receiving Gu Chen's loving education during this period, even the troublemakers had become obedient.

Because someone had already followed in Xu Sanshi's footsteps.

The facts proved that Gu Chen really could knock you flat with one punch.

Mu Jin smiled from the platform and continued, "Xie Huanyue, Ning Tian, Wu Feng, the three of you will form a group. You must give it your all. Only by enduring extreme pressure can you transform."

The moment Ning Tian and the others heard this, they felt as though the sky had collapsed.

Seriously?

They had been singled out.

Gu Chen grinned, glanced over the three of them, and said, "Then let the special training begin. The three of you can come at me together. I'll go easy on you."

"Teacher Mu Jin, can we do this later?" Xie Huanyue looked pleadingly at Mu Jin in front of him.

Ning Tian and Wu Feng also looked over pitifully, unwilling to become the focus of Class Nine.

Mu Jin said indifferently, "If you want to be eliminated from Shrek Academy, I have no objections. Arranging special training for you is a good thing. Look, do the other classes have this?"

"Take a look at Freshman Class One. What kind of life are they living?"

Everyone present immediately felt that the teacher had a point.

By comparison, Freshman Class Nine had it far too good. Not only did they have medicinal baths, but they also had special training from their class monitor. More of them would be able to remain after the Freshman Assessment as well.

Meanwhile, the elimination rate in Freshman Class One was terrifyingly high.

Ning Tian and the other two took a deep breath and decided to go all out.

Three against one. The advantage was theirs.

Soon, Class Nine's practical combat training began. Gu Chen and Ning Tian's group arrived at the training area, while the others sparred among themselves to warm up and waited for Gu Chen to arrange their special training.

Mu Jin found herself a stool and sat down to watch.

In the field, Gu Chen beckoned to them. "Come on. To show my respect, I can train you without using Silver-Pattern Blue Silver Grass."

As he spoke, he raised his right hand. Golden dragon scales had already covered it, and the bloodline pressure of the Golden Dragon King swept outward.

Wu Feng and Xie Huanyue felt as though a massive mountain had been placed on them. Even breathing became difficult.

This bloodline suppression was so powerful!

At that moment, Ning Tian said, "Xie Huanyue, you'll be the main attacker. Wu Feng, support him. I'll assist you two."

"Alright!"

The two nodded together.

Then, after Xie Huanyue shouted, "Martial Soul Possession," three soul rings rose beneath his feet. His skin turned dark, and he pounded his fists against his chest, letting out a roar as his whole body became a ball of flesh.

This was the characteristic of the Pipi Elephant Martial Soul. Both its defense and attack power were extremely formidable.

After completing his Martial Soul Possession, Xie Huanyue's first soul ring lit up. Activating Elephant Body Attack, he charged straight toward Gu Chen.

"Seven treasures turn to glass, first: speed, third: strength."

Behind him, Ning Tian held the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda and gave a delicate shout. Two beams of light shot from the glazed pagoda and landed on Xie Huanyue.

In an instant, Xie Huanyue's speed and strength increased by thirty percent.

Facing the charging Xie Huanyue, Gu Chen merely raised his hand slightly, took one step forward, and threw a punch.

Boom!

Xie Huanyue flew away like a ball, letting out a pained groan.

At the same time, Wu Feng seized the chance to attack. Her first soul ring lit up as she shouted, "Dragon's Fire!"

The Red Dragon Martial Soul instantly let out a dragon roar, and blazing flames surged from her body.

However, Gu Chen merely raised his head and said coldly, "Stand down!"

Those words carried the majesty of the Golden Dragon King. Wu Feng immediately felt her Martial Soul on the verge of shattering, and Dragon's Fire sputtered out at once.

At that moment, Ning Tian shouted, "Second: dispel!"

A streak of light landed on Wu Feng, instantly removing the suppression from the dragon Martial Soul. Wu Feng retreated as well.

Before Wu Feng could react, Gu Chen decisively made his move and chased her down.

"Wu Feng, dodge!"

Ning Tian stretched out her hand and cried out.

Wu Feng spun around abruptly and saw that Gu Chen was only one meter away. She immediately activated her second soul skill, Dragon's Fury.

In an instant, the Red Dragon Martial Soul exerted its strength again. Her entire body ignited with dazzling flames, and she opened her mouth to spew fire.

At that moment, Wu Feng looked exactly like a hissing kitten.

Gu Chen neither dodged nor evaded. He simply raised his hand and threw a punch. The fierce wind from his fist slammed into Wu Feng and instantly sent her flying more than ten meters away.

"Here I come!"

Xie Huanyue shouted as he sprang up from the ground, activating his third soul skill, Elephant Fury. The skin all over his body turned even darker as he charged once more.

Gu Chen raised his hand and threw another punch.

Xie Huanyue flew away again, crying out miserably.

At that moment, Xie Huanyue and Wu Feng truly had little fighting strength left. They only felt pain all over their bodies.

Gu Chen had no combat techniques at all. His fists were simply too hard.

It was difficult to imagine them enduring three months of special training under this monster's torment, suffering inhuman pain.

At that moment, Gu Chen withdrew his hand and commented, "Xie Huanyue, you were too reckless. When facing a true assault-type Soul Master, do not choose to clash head-on. You should focus on wearing them down first. You know very well that you are not my opponent, so you can only choose to wear me down. Understand?"

Xie Huanyue rubbed his chest and said painfully, "Big Brother is right, but could you go a little easier next time? I feel like I'm about to vomit stomach acid."

Bleurgh!

Wu Feng directly threw up, feeling uncomfortable all over.

Aside from Ning Tian, who was relatively fine, everyone else felt the pain of the special training.

Gu Chen smiled. "If I'm harsher on you now, you won't struggle so much when facing Soul Masters of the same level in the future. After all, the Martial Soul pressure and power others bring you will not compare to mine."

"Stop talking and come again, come again!!"

Immediately afterward, Xie Huanyue and Wu Feng were dragged back into another beating. Gu Chen did not hold back at all, training them entirely according to special training standards.

Before long, cries of misery filled the training field. Xie Huanyue and Wu Feng were directly treated like punching bags.

The students of Freshman Class Nine were dumbfounded, their bodies trembling one after another.

On the platform, Mu Jin watched the scene with an approving expression.

This was the effect of special training.

As long as Gu Chen was strong enough, he could pressure everyone and let them experience being crushed by an entirely different level of power.

That way, these children would unleash even greater strength during the Freshman Assessment.

With Gu Chen around, there was no suspense at all over the champion of this Freshman Tournament. It was practically a certainty.

A smile curled across Mu Jin's lips.

The champion of this tournament would finally fall into her hands.

Afterward, Mu Jin happily left the training field, leaving only the students of Freshman Class Nine wailing behind.
