He Really Seemed Intent on Teaching Us Self-Created Soul Skills

Lin Fan and Leng Yaozhu walked into the Inner Court classroom side by side. When they pushed open the door, several people were already seated inside.

Lin Fan swept his gaze across the room and immediately spotted a familiar figure.

Ling Luochеn was seated by the window. Her cool eyes held a faint smile, and when she saw Lin Fan and Leng Yaozhu enter, she gave a slight nod and greeted them.

"Teacher Lin Fan is here?"

She deliberately emphasized the word "teacher." After all, Lin Fan had wanted her to address him that way before, so she decided to call him that now. Yet after saying it aloud, a faint blush crept up her small, delicate ears.

Lin Fan did not pay it much mind and merely smiled. There were seven people in this classroom in total, a remarkably small number compared to the Outer Court.

Of course, that was perfectly normal. The Outer Court's elimination rate was already high to begin with, especially with an "exceptional teacher" like Zhou Yi in charge. The number of students eliminated had risen even more sharply.

Moreover, one of the requirements for entering the Inner Court was joining the Shrek Inspection Corps. That meant actually going outside to carry out missions, with no subsidies whatsoever and considerable risks to bear. Some people were unwilling to join because of that.

On top of that, Inner Court disciples died for various reasons almost every year. For example, during the previous large-scale casualty incident, only four out of twelve had survived. As a result, the number of Inner Court disciples rarely exceeded fifty.

When those students saw Lin Fan, they also greeted him in turn.

"Hello, Teacher Lin Fan."

"Long time no see, Lin Fan. I didn't expect you to really come back and become a teacher."

Leng Yaozhu could not help but be stunned by the scene before her.

She had thought Yan Shaozhe would definitely cause trouble behind the scenes and have these students give Lin Fan a hard time. Yet judging by their attitudes, they were quite friendly toward Lin Fan. They did not seem as though Yan Shaozhe had instructed them to do anything at all.

Could Yan Shaozhe really be so kind-hearted that he had not targeted Lin Fan?

After thinking it over, Leng Yaozhu found that impossible no matter how she looked at it. She had seen Yan Shaozhe's petty nature for herself.

Sure enough, just as she was still puzzled, a female student with short brown hair suddenly spoke with a smile.

"Lin Fan, Dean Yan did hint to us at first that he wanted us to give you a little show of force and make things difficult for you, this young teacher."

As she spoke, her smile deepened, and her gaze fell on Ling Luochеn.

"But Luochеn told us about you beforehand. Besides, we were classmates back then. There was no way we would target you just because Dean Yan said so."

"So we'll listen carefully to your lessons."

"But..."

She glanced at Lin Fan, the corners of her lips curving slightly.

"If you don't actually have what it takes, then don't blame us for being impolite."

Though she did not finish her sentence, her meaning was obvious enough. Giving him face was one thing, but if what he taught was no good, they would not spare his feelings.

Lin Fan was not angered by her words. Instead, he smiled and swept his gaze over everyone present. Most of the people in this class had been in the same class as him back then.

Seven years had passed. Of the seven people in this classroom, five had been his former classmates. He was not very familiar with the other two, but they were probably from the same intake as well.

Lin Fan had not expected so many people from his old class to make it into the Inner Court.

"Don't worry."

Lin Fan gave his assurance directly, and his mood improved somewhat. Showing off and humiliating others could be entertaining, but encountering idiots really soured one's mood. For Lin Fan, not having any obnoxious people around was quite nice.

Standing to the side, Leng Yaozhu could not help but feel moved as she watched the scene.

She had not expected that Lin Fan, despite having attended school for only half a semester back then, had gotten along fairly well with his classmates. Seven whole years had passed since then, and they had barely had any contact. Only Lin Fan and Ling Luochеn had occasionally exchanged messages.

Lin Fan did not say anything more. He walked to the front of the classroom, swept his gaze over the seven people present, and slowly spoke.

"Today, I'll be teaching you about the application of soul skills."

Upon hearing that, everyone present was stunned.

"The application of soul skills?"

The brown-haired female student spoke first, her tone filled with confusion.

"Aren't soul skills simply abilities granted to us by soul rings? We just release them and figure out how to link them together. What application is there to talk about?"

Though the others did not speak, their faces clearly showed the same question.

"My Martial Soul is a Spatial Martial Soul. I'm sure all of you know that."

After hearing Lin Fan's words, everyone nodded slightly.

"And all nine soul skills granted by my soul rings are attribute enhancements. Not a single one is a skill used directly for offense or defense."

"Try attacking me."

Lin Fan's gaze fell on the brown-haired female student as he spoke.

Hearing Lin Fan's words, the female student raised her brows. She did not hold back, immediately releasing a long-range soul skill toward him.

At that moment, Lin Fan raised a hand. A black barrier appeared out of thin air in front of him. When the attack struck that black barrier, it vanished as though something had completely absorbed it.

"This is how I apply my soul skills. Every Martial Soul has attributes, and those corresponding attributes are the key to applying soul skills."

Lin Fan lowered his hand, and the black barrier dissipated. Then he extended his hand again and gave it a light wave. The female student was suddenly pushed several steps backward by an invisible force.

"By ordinary soul skill classifications, my first move should be called Spatial Shield, while the second is called Spatial Movement. These are all Self-Created Soul Skills based on my Martial Soul."

Everyone was stunned upon hearing that.

He was teaching Self-Created Soul Skills right from the start? Wasn't that exciting?

Leng Yaozhu sat beside Ling Luochеn, watching the scene with undisguised shock. Lin Fan had managed to create his own soul skills at such a young age?

He really was remarkable. A young genius was probably someone like Lin Fan.

One had to know that even in the era ten thousand years later, only the tiny handful of people standing at the very peak could use Self-Created Soul Skills.

But... judging by Lin Fan's manner, was he planning to teach them Self-Created Soul Skills now?

Lin Fan dared to teach them, but could they really learn?

Ten thousand years later, countless people watching the light screen were also stunned by this scene.

In particular, a young boy from Shrek Academy was stunned when he heard those words.

"That's right... I should also rely on my own Martial Soul to create a set of soul skills that belongs to me. That way, I'll have more methods at my disposal."

This person was Zhuo Shi. Looking at Lin Fan's confident appearance on the light screen, it felt as though something within him had been ignited.
