After hearing Dugu Yan's words, Yang Podi felt speechless. They were all so familiar with each other, yet she still insisted on meeting up so late at night.
Dugu Yan seemed to have thought of something and began to introduce the girl who had come with her, " Podi, this is my classmate, Ye Lingling. Today, news about you has spread throughout the whole school, and Lingling is quite curious, so she specially brought her to meet you."
Yang Podi was surprised to hear this. He hadn't expected that this girl was Ye Lingling the Nine Heart Begonia, the support Soul Master of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team in the original novel. Her healing ability was considered heaven-defying, but unfortunately, there was no news of her after that.
Yang Podi began to introduce himself, "Hello, Ye Lingling, my Yang Podi, I am 12 years old, my martial spirit is the Martial Soul- Soul Breaking Spear, and my Soul Power is level 35."
Ye Lingling seemed a little shy. "Hello, my name is Ye Lingling, I'm 14 years old, my Martial Soul Nine Heart Begonia, my Soul Power is level 25, and I'm currently in Class B of the Heavenly Supreme Level."
Yang Podi felt a little strange, but still continued, " Sister Lingling, hello, welcome to my dormitory. We are all Soul Master, so we can exchange ideas and learn from each other more in the future."
Dugu Yan seemed to notice Yang Podi's surprise and spoke directly, "Little guy, what do you know? Lingling's Martial Soul is the Nine Heart Begonia, the number one Healing System Martial Soul on the continent. Although it's only level 25, Lingling's healing ability is stronger than that of ordinary Soul Elder."
" Sister Lingling, I'm so sorry, I was Sister Lingling things. I didn't realize you were so amazing."
Dugu Yan continued, " Yang Podi, which class are you in?"
" Sister Yan, I've been assigned to Class A of the Heaven Dou Grade."
" Heaven Dou Grade? I really envy you. You've reached the Heaven Dou Grade so quickly. You're already level 35. Do you have any plans to participate in the Soul Master Tournament two years from now?"
"His Highness the Crown Prince came to see me personally today. I don't plan to participate in this Soul Master Tournament. I want to participate in the next Soul Master Tournament, and I am now the captain and team leader of the second team for the next Soul Master Tournament."
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were both surprised. "No way, how come the next Soul Master Tournament is already here? And you're actually the captain and team leader?"
"This was something I proposed to His Highness the Crown Prince and the three members of the Education Committee. The main reason is that I'm worried about not having enough combat experience, so I don't want to participate in this Soul Master Tournament."
"I'm more confident about the next Soul Master Tournament; now I have five people in the group."
"You're moving way too fast! There are still 7 years left, and you already have 5 team members. Isn't that a bit too early?"
Yang Podi smiled and said, "It's getting late. Although seven years seems like a long time, the students' strength is still lacking and they need more training."
Dugu Yan seemed to have thought of something, " Podi, how about Lingling and I join your team? That would make a total of seven people. What do you say? Welcome me!"
"Of course I welcome both of you to join. If Sister Yan and Sister Lingling could both join the team, that would be even better, and our team would be perfect."
Before Ye Lingling could even speak, Dugu Yan had already made her decision. "Then it's decided. From now on, Lingling and I will be members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team Second Team."
Ye Lingling, on the other hand, was a little at a loss, unsure whether to refuse or agree.
Dugu Yan comforted Ye Lingling, " Lingling, don't worry. Yang Podi is good at coming up with strange cultivation methods, and they're very effective. I'm already level 29."
Hearing Dugu Yan's words, Yang Podi couldn't help but complain in his heart: Dugu Yan's talent is not bad, but in the original work, Dugu Yan is 7 years older than Tang San, and she was only level 42 during the Soul Master Tournament. How did she get such Soul Power Level? The speed of improvement is too slow!
I remember when the Shrek Team first faced the Heaven Dou Royal Academy at the Suotuo City Great Soul Arena, Dugu Yan's Soul Power Level was already 38. However, by the time of the Soul Master Tournament, after a year and a half, almost two years, her Soul Power was still only 42. That's incredibly slow! She only gained 4 levels in such a long time. Yu Tianheng also only gained 4 levels. Meanwhile, the average Shrek Academy gained 10 levels. Xiao Wu, without even consuming any Immortal Herb, gained seven or eight levels. Not to mention Zhu Zhuqing and Ma Hongjun, who, despite consuming Immortal Herb, gained more than ten levels each.
However, Yang Podi still smiled and said, "Then welcome the two beauties to our Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team. With the addition of these two beauties, the strength of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Second Team will definitely surprise everyone."
"We'll gather everyone together tomorrow afternoon, and the two beauties will also come to Training Ground 3. Training Ground 3 has now been assigned to our team."
Yang Podi spoke with the two men again before seeing them off.
After seeing the two off, Yang Podi continued meditating in his dormitory. Team matters were minor; his own cultivation was the most important thing.
Early the next morning, Yang Podi changed into the uniform of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, looked at himself carefully in the mirror twice, and couldn't help but nod in approval.
The uniforms of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy are white and gold, displaying nobility and royal symbolism. They look very high-end and elegant, and even the ordinary student uniforms are probably very expensive to make.
After Yang Podi put on this school uniform, although he was still broad-shouldered and burly, the uniform completely covered his muscles. Combined with his thin face and black hair, he looked more aristocratic and handsome.
Today is the first class of the Heaven Dou Grade class. Although Yang Podi doesn't care much about it, he still decides to go to class to see what the Heaven Dou Royal Academy can teach.
When Yang Podi finished his morning training and had breakfast and arrived at the classroom, there were already quite a few people inside.
The Heaven Dou Grade class is the highest level class in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. All students are required to have Soul Power of level 30 or above. Yang Podi looked around carefully and it seemed that everyone was over 20 years old. There were only a few under 20, but they were at least seventeen or eighteen years old.
Most of the students were scattered around, either chatting, reading, or meditating alone. From their eyes, one could see a hint of arrogance and haughtiness, almost like aristocrats.
Yang Podi ignored the people around him and found a secluded spot to sit down. To Yang Podi himself, these classmates were meaningless. They were all nobles of the empire, while he was from Soul Master family, and they would have little to do with each other in the future.
Many people glanced at Yang Podi, Yang Podi, despite his imposing stature of 1.7 meters, still looked rather youthful and not like someone in their early twenties.
Moreover, news broke yesterday that the academy has recruited a 12-year-old Soul Elder at level 35, who will likely be placed in a Heaven Dou Grade class. It's quite possible that this is the same young boy with the tender face mentioned earlier.
As time went by, the classroom gradually filled up. According to Yang Podi's estimate, there should be about 25 students in the class.
The entire Heaven Dou Royal Academy has 500 students, with Heaven Dou Grade students making up about one-tenth, or two classes.
