I Pick Up Fragments in Douluo Continent

In a fantasy world where individual might reigned supreme over everything, equality for all?

Better forget it.

By nature, Soul Masters belonged to the exploiting class.

Wherever there were people, there were interests. Even without exploitation, class barriers were difficult to cross.

"Poseidon's method of becoming a god was more reliable. Sea soul beasts might not understand faith, but they knew whose fist was bigger!"

"A teacher for a day, a father for life. You deserve my kneeling."

Beside the teaching building, Lu Feng looked at Tang San kneeling on the ground and immediately felt as though a flock of crows had flown over his head.

When they had been at the school gate earlier, they had not encountered Yu Xiaogang. Lu Feng had thought Tang San had missed out on gaining a 'godfather.'

Who would have thought that the gears of fate had turned after all.

Opposite Tang San stood a black-clad man in his forties with a crew cut, tears streaming down his face.

"Good child, good child!"

"Come, Teacher will take you to the Academic Affairs Office to register." Yu Xiaogang pulled Tang San to his feet by the hand, speaking with some excitement.

At this moment, Tang San also noticed Lu Feng. With a hint of pride, he said, "Lu Feng, this is my new teacher, a great and wise expert."

In the Tang Sect of his previous life, being accepted as a disciple by an inner sect elder was an immensely joyous occasion.

After their exchange, Tang San had been deeply impressed by Yu Xiaogang's extensive knowledge. He guessed that the other man had to be an expert hidden within the academy.

"..." Lu Feng felt rather awkward.

Great?

Wise?

An expert?!!

No matter how he looked at it, none of those descriptions had anything to do with Yu Xiaogang.

If Yu Xiaogang had said something like, "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river," after Bibi Dong rejected him, then smashed his head against the Angel God statue and died, Lu Feng might have thought more highly of him.

"So it's Grandmaster! I've heard so much about you! I've heard so much about you!"

Lu Feng widened his eyes, cupped his hands, and put on an excited expression.

No matter how useless Yu Xiaogang was, he was still a Soul Grandmaster. He was not someone a tiny Soul Scholar like Lu Feng could afford to provoke.

Lu Feng was not like certain transmigrators who started mouthing off the moment they arrived.

If Yu Xiaogang became angry out of embarrassment, summoned Luo Sanpao, and blasted him with lightning, would he not have to transmigrate again?

"Oh? You've heard of my story?"

Seeing Lu Feng's 'respectful' appearance, Yu Xiaogang immediately felt a surge of satisfaction in his heart.

What he loved most was being admired.

Yu Xiaogang straightened his posture, clasped his hands behind his back, and cleared his throat. "Come, let me see your Martial Soul certificate."

At his words, Lu Feng immediately felt a herd of alpacas stampeding through his heart.

I really asked for trouble. What if Yu Xiaogang suddenly wants to take me as a disciple? Should I agree or refuse then?

If I agree, won't I gain a godfather for no reason? If I refuse, won't he fart at me?

Then again, although Yu Xiaogang's strength is lacking, he really is good to his disciples. His background is not small either. Once the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect is wiped out in the future, he and Liu Erlong will become supreme elders.

No, my situation is too special. I can use other people's Martial Souls. I can usually hide it, but I won't be able to conceal it when absorbing soul rings. What if Yu Xiaogang gets interested in researching me? Won't I be dissected?

"Mm, Innate Level Five Soul Power. Not bad." Yu Xiaogang's words interrupted Lu Feng's thoughts.

"Although your Martial Soul is of poor quality, you must not give up on yourself and neglect your cultivation."

After saying that, Yu Xiaogang returned the Martial Soul certificate to Lu Feng, took Tang San's hand, and headed toward the teaching building.

Their figures gradually disappeared into the distance, leaving Lu Feng alone on the field.

"Damn! I was rejected!"

At that moment, a ball of white light dropped from where Yu Xiaogang had been.

Picked up white item: Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul fragment ×1 (1/10)

"Fuck me!"

"Break it down!"

"Break it down hard!"

Teaching building, Admissions Office.

Director Su handed a set of white school uniforms to Lu Feng. "These are your things. The academy provides them free of charge. You'll be staying in the Seventh Dormitory of the dormitory building. The teacher there will arrange your work as a Work-Study Student."

"Thank you, Director." Lu Feng accepted the uniform and replied politely.

Just as Lu Feng was preparing to leave, Director Su grabbed his hand and asked quietly, "Lu Feng, your Innate Soul Power isn't low. Grandmaster didn't offer to take you as his disciple, did he?"

"Hmm? What do you mean, Director?" Lu Feng asked in confusion.

Seeing Lu Feng's expression, Director Su immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He pulled Lu Feng closer and whispered into his ear, "There's something wrong with Grandmaster's head. All day long, he thinks about taking in a genius disciple to prove himself. But all those theories of his are simply copied and compiled from books."

At this point, Director Su's expression turned serious. "Lu Feng, your Innate Soul Power is a full Level Five, and your Martial Soul isn't some trash Martial Soul like Blue Silver Grass. Your future is bright. Don't go down the wrong path!"

"Mm, I understand. Thank you, Director."

Lu Feng nodded, then bade Director Su farewell and headed toward the Seventh Dormitory.

Lu Feng did not care much about Yu Xiaogang. In his view, Yu Xiaogang's only value lay in his basic knowledge of soul beasts. He only needed to wander around the dormitory building a few more times and gather all the book fragments; then there would be no need to bother with him.

The academy dormitory building was easy to find. There was only one building, and the Seventh Dormitory was located at the very end of the first floor, specifically for Work-Study Students.

As soon as Lu Feng reached the entrance of the Seventh Dormitory, he heard the commotion coming from inside. The door was open, so he walked to the doorway and looked in.

It was a spacious room of more than three hundred square meters. Only a few dozen beds had been placed inside, leaving a large empty area in the center.

At that moment, two children were wrestling in the open area, while more than a dozen others surrounded them, cheering and shouting.

"Daxiong, hit him in the stomach!"

"Go, Daxiong! Defeat Wang Sheng, and you'll be the boss of the Seventh Dormitory!"

"Daxiong, use an over-the-shoulder throw!"

After watching for a while, Lu Feng lost interest. The fight between the two had no technique whatsoever; it was nothing more than children playing around. However, several balls of white light in the open area caught his attention.

"Eh, this Martial Soul is rather interesting!"

Chapter 10: Battle! Battle!

Lu Feng looked toward the boy named Daxiong. A faint layer of white light covered his fists, and several black iron rings were fitted over his fingers.

At first glance, Lu Feng had thought his Martial Soul was a fist.

At that moment, Daxiong was being firmly pinned beneath Wang Sheng. His face was flushed red, clearly showing that he had already used all his strength, yet he still could not break free from Wang Sheng's restraint.

"How about it? Do you admit defeat?"

Wang Sheng laughed loudly and was about to mock him a few more times when he suddenly caught sight of Lu Feng standing at the doorway.

He released his arms, climbed up from the ground, dusted himself off, and walked toward Lu Feng.

"A new Work-Study Student?" Wang Sheng asked uncertainly.

Wang Sheng looked Lu Feng up and down. The youth before him was only a head shorter than him and did not look like a six-year-old child at all.

"That's right. I'm a Work-Study Student from Holy Soul Village." Lu Feng smiled.

"My name is Wang Sheng. My Martial Soul is War Tiger, and I have Level Nine Soul Power. Our Seventh Dormitory has a rule: newcomers must show what they can do. Whoever wins becomes the boss. Kid, what's your name? What's your Martial Soul?"

"Hello, my name is Lu Feng. My Martial Soul is 'Body,' and I have Level Five Soul Power."

As he spoke, Lu Feng amicably extended his right hand.

Wang Sheng stared at Lu Feng's gesture, stunned for a moment before quickly understanding. The adults who did business always shook hands when meeting.

"Hello." Wang Sheng instinctively reached out to shake Lu Feng's hand.

However, an accident suddenly occurred in the next moment.

Lu Feng moved beside Wang Sheng with lightning speed.

His right hand hooked around Wang Sheng's chest and seized Wang Sheng's arm. At the same time, he turned, stepped forward with his right foot, used his back as a fulcrum, exerted force through his waist, and directly threw Wang Sheng forward over his back.

Bang!

Wang Sheng's body slammed viciously into a bed frame, sending him and the bedding tumbling several meters away.

The sudden change stunned everyone present. The dozen or so children stared blankly at Lu Feng, and the room instantly fell silent.

Lu Feng casually clapped his hands and smiled. "How was that? I won, right?"

"Eh, why isn't anyone saying anything?"

At that moment, a skinny child was the first to snap out of it and shouted, "You ambushed him!"

"That's right, you have no martial virtue!"

"Brother Sheng, get up! Teach him a harsh lesson!"

The children began accusing him one after another.

At this moment, Wang Sheng struggled to get up from the ground. He looked rather miserable, covered in dust, with even a tear in his school uniform.

Wang Sheng's expression kept shifting, and his gaze toward Lu Feng was full of complicated emotions.

To be honest, he was very unconvinced. However, after being the boss of the Work-Study Students for so long, he had dealt with noble students several times. Compared with those nobles, Lu Feng's methods could be considered 'upright and honorable.'

Moreover, Lu Feng had clearly held back. Otherwise, he would have thrown him directly onto the floor. Wang Sheng looked miserable, but he had not actually suffered any injuries.

Wang Sheng quickly came to a decision. He wiped the dust from his forehead and said, "I lost. Starting today, you're the boss of the Seventh Dormitory."

At that moment, the small child walked over to Wang Sheng's side and said aggrievedly, "Brother Sheng, why did you chicken out?"

At his words, Wang Sheng roughly ruffled the small child's hair. "A loss is a loss. When you go into the forest to hunt soul beasts, will the soul beasts talk about martial virtue with you?"

"Hmph, we're sometimes too honest, which is why those noble students keep bullying us." Wang Sheng said angrily.

"Come on, everyone will call him Brother Feng from now on. Hello, Brother Feng!"

"Hello, Brother Feng!"

The children's voices rang out in perfect unison.

At that moment, several balls of light dropped out in succession.

Lu Feng's body trembled. In the next moment, he felt as though he had become a little more handsome again.

He crossed his arms, maintaining a faint smile on his face, but his heart was blooming with joy.

Over the years, Lu Feng had not picked up many attribute point fragments. Most had been harvested from those strong villagers, as well as Tang Hao.

Even so, his strength, speed, and physical toughness far surpassed those of children his age.

Looking at the children playing around, realization flashed in Lu Feng's eyes. It seems the drop rate for fragments is much higher during combat. There's another possibility: these children are all Soul Masters.

With a thought, Lu Feng scanned through the fragment storage.
