An Inner Court Spot?
After announcing the identities of the core disciples and prospective core disciples, Du Weilun began to assign them to classes.
The entire first grade was divided into four classes: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4.
Class One consists of Power Attack System and Control-Type Battle Spirit Master; Class Two consists of defensive and Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master; Class Three consists of support-type Battle Soul Master; and Class Four consists of Battle Soul Master and Weapon Soul Master.
To be honest, Xu Xingyu, who was sitting in the audience, felt that this way of dividing the classes was somewhat subtle and unreasonable.
If the goal is simply for each student to study their area of specialization, wouldn't it be better to create dedicated courses for that area? As for the class composition, just mix everyone together.
At most, we need to consider the difference in fighting strength between classes, and try to make the visible differences between classes less obvious. This will facilitate competition between classes.
After all, if you put both Power Attack System and Control System in the same class, it would be a problem if it didn't become the strongest class in the grade!
This is equivalent to putting all the main attackers in one team, and then freely matching the other defensive and support roles.
Without offensive capabilities, wouldn't the other characters just be walking targets?
This method of class assignment made Xu Xingyu even more suspicious of the other party's true educational abilities.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that getting into the Shrek Academy was his grandfather's dream, he wouldn't want to go near this place full of believers of some god at all.
Next came the introduction of each class's homeroom teacher, which was largely the same as in the original novel. This made Xu Xingyu secretly regretful, since he absolutely did not want Zhou Yi to be his homeroom teacher.
However, this is not something he can control. He hopes that the old woman won't cause him any trouble.
However, Xu Xingyu had some expectations for the teacher named Wang Yan, even though the latter had a similar template to Yu Xiaogang.
However, his overall knowledge and abilities are far superior to Yu Xiaogang's, and his character is also far better than Yu Xiaogang's.
Not only would they refrain from doing something as unethical as copying someone else's material and then claiming it as their own, but they would also keep quiet about any unusual behavior observed in students.
In the original novel, Wang Yan was able to discover certain secrets hidden by Huo Yuhao based on the control he displayed during the competition. However, after pointing out these suspicious points to Huo Yuhao, he did not demand that Huo Yuhao be honest with him.
On the contrary, Wang Yan was willing to be Huo Yuhao's listener whenever Huo Yuhao was willing.
Meanwhile, in the original novel, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er only realized they had four Martial Soul Fusion Skill after being reminded by Wang Yan.
It can be said that Wang Yan is one of the few responsible teachers in the Shrek Academy. He may have the so-called flaws of Shrek Glory, but in other aspects he is undoubtedly a qualified teacher.
After a series of events, Du Weilun finally finished saying everything he needed to say and led all the students present into the teaching building under the guidance of their homeroom teacher.
However, before that, he specifically asked Xu Xingyu's team, which was ranked first, to meet him in the teachers' office area behind the senior teaching building.
They said they would give them a special reward for being the top performers in the freshman assessment.
Guided by Du Weilun, the three arrived at the top floor of the senior teaching building, where Du Weilun's office was located.
If one had to evaluate Du Weilun's office, Xu Xingyu could only say it was very spacious, much larger than Professor Mu Jin's office. It lacked some of the ornate decorations, but instead had a large number of bookshelves and books on them.
Upon arriving at the office, Du Weilun gestured for Xu Xingyu and the other two to sit on the sofa and wait. Du Weilun then took a leather bag from his desk.
Upon seeing this physical form, Xu Xingyu immediately understood what the so-called reward was: it was Soul Bone.
Upon opening the outer shell, a brownish-yellow Soul Bone appeared before everyone. Du Weilun, standing nearby, explained, "This is the right leg bone of a five-thousand-year-old Qian Jun Ant Emperor. According to the academy's observations, this Soul Bone should contain a Soul Skill that increases power."
The Qian Jun Ant is a relatively common insect-type Soul Beast in the Douluo Continent. They are small in size but have extraordinary strength, and those Qian Jun Ant that successfully evolve into Ant Kings are even more so.
This Soul Beast is very popular among Soul Master who prefer a brute-force approach, because simply absorbing its Soul Ring or Soul Bone can greatly enhance their own power.
Therefore, even if the obtained Soul Skill is not so satisfactory, the amplified power is still extremely satisfying.
This Soul Bone is perfect for Jiang Haoyue.
Xu Xingyu and Xu Yanxue both wholeheartedly agreed to give the Soul Bone to Jiang Haoyue.
After all, when they saw that the reward was Soul Bone, the two of them instantly lost interest, because that thing was of no use to them.
They weren't interested in keeping it as a collectible; they'd rather give it to Jiang Haoyue as a reward for being their teammate in this competition.
Du Weilun was not annoyed by this, as he knew very well that Xu Xingyu, who came from the Spirit Contract Pagoda, would not be interested in such things, so the academy specially prepared another reward for Xu Xingyu.
Du Weilun handed Xu Xingyu a red envelope, which Xu Xingyu immediately opened and began reading.
The above content truly astonished Xu Xingyu, leaving her speechless.
This letter was actually a recommendation letter for early admission to the Inner Court!
This reward was completely unexpected for Xu Xingyu, considering he had only been at the school for a little over a month, and now he was being directly invited to join the Inner Court of the Shrek Academy's core area!?
What exactly are Shrek thinking?
Du Weilun, seeing Xu Xingyu, explained, "Based on our observations, Xu Xingyu, your combat strength far surpasses that of most people in the Outer Court. In addition, you once directly suppressed the out-of-control Ma Xiaotao. Therefore, Shrek Academy solemnly invites you to join Shrek Academy's Inner Court."
Faced with this sudden invitation, Xu Xingyu did not immediately agree but instead asked, "How much time do I have to consider?"
This surprised Du Weilun. In his eyes, a normal student would definitely agree to such an invitation without hesitation, but after seeing Xu Xingyu and Xu Yanxue holding hands, Du Weilun knew Xu Xingyu's concerns.
Xu Xingyu is probably still reluctant to part with the friends she made in the Outer Court, so she may want to spend more time with them and enjoy the good times together.
Du Weilun did not find this objectionable; on the contrary, he thought Xu Xingyu was quite loyal and a reliable person.
Du Weilun quickly gave his answer, "This recommendation letter has a one-year time limit, so I personally recommend that you make your choice before entering your second year."
Upon hearing this Xu Xingyu bowed in thanks and left Du Weilun's office with her two teammates.
