Chapter 3288_1

Seeing this scene, Luo Guixing and the others faces all turned dark, as if they had been force-fed a mouthful of dog food. They had come with good intentions to remind the others, only to encounter this unexpected response!

Zheng Yiran placed her hands on her hips and huffed, "Hmph, suit yourselves, we were just trying to be considerate because we're all classmates! Nian Xia, let's go!"

After saying that, she pulled Yang Nian Xia away...

Luo Guixing muttered somewhat resentfully, "Since you are set on joining the military, we can only wish you victory!"

Xu Yucheng nodded, "Yeah, you are the Shrek Seven Monsters after all, so don't bring shame upon the Academy."

Immediately afterward, he stepped forward to follow Zheng Yiran and company!

Ye Xinglan couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect, as we're about to leave, the first ones to come and care about us would be Luo Guixing and the others, with whom we've had our differences!"

Xu Xiaoyan blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "Indeed, it's somewhat surprising! But I guess that's the charm of Shrek Academy, isn't it?"

We are competitors, but also friends!

Tang Wulin took a deep breath, his gaze gradually becoming serious, "Everyone, it's getting late. We should gather outside the Sea God's Pavilion now!"

...

Outside the Sea God's Pavilion!

Tang Wulin and the others stood neatly in a row, their faces unchanging as they stared ahead...

Finally, after a few minutes, all the Elders, including Xu Sheng, emerged from the Sea God's Pavilion...

When they had positioned themselves, they all looked at the group with complex expressions...

Leading them, Long Yeyue pursed her lips and said calmly, "Hmm, it looks like all the Shrek Seven Monsters are here!"

These children had all made tremendous progress over a few years and had become genuine Soul Emperor powerhouses!

Deep down, she was still proud of them!

Tang Wulin clasped his fist and respectfully said, "Yes, Elder Long."

Long Yeyue nodded slightly, and seriously said, "Children, considering your application to join the military six months ago, the Sea God's Pavilion has approved and successfully made arrangements for you to be assigned to different military regions today!"

"Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui, head to the Southern Military District; Xu Xiaoyan and Yue Zhengyu, to the Northern Military District! Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan, to the Western Military District, and Tang Wulin, to the Eastern Military Region!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yue Zhengyu excitedly said, "Xiao Yan, we've been assigned to the same military region, how great is that!"

If he had not been in the same military region as Xu Xiaoyan, he might have considered giving up on enlisting altogether. Thankfully, the best outcome was quite satisfying!

Xu Xiaoyan replied with a somewhat shy "Mhm..."

Xie Xie also looked eagerly at Yuanen Yehui, excitedly saying, "Yehui, not just Yue Zhengyu and them, we two have also been assigned to the same military region!"

Yuanen Yehui glanced at him and casually said, "Oh."

Xie Xie sounded a bit disappointed, "Yehui, don't you feel happy to be with me?"

Yuanen Yehui shook her head, "No, can you really be happy looking at Wulin?"

Xie Xie looked over and noticed that Tang Wulin's expression was a bit sorrowful...

But Xie Xie laughed and said, "Wait, Wulin, you haven't told us where you're planning to go yet? Don't tell me it's to find Gu Yue?"

He was well aware of the gloomy emotions on Tang Wulin's face when he and Gu Yue had parted ways!

Tang Wulin paused and pondered, "Gu Yue? I'm not even sure where she is now, and the academy has also confiscated our communicators!"

Xie Xie also felt there was some logic to his words, "That makes sense, so where do you plan to go?"

Tang Wulin thought carefully, "Me? I should probably first go to Tang Sect to observe the situation and raise my Fighter Level, then return to the academy to retrieve my confiscated belongings. Finally, I'll go to the Blacksmith Association to consult with President Zhenhua on some issues."

"If all goes well, there's a chance for me to break through as a level-7 blacksmith! By then, we'll have the foundation for our Three-Word Battle Armor!"

During his time on Demon Island, his physical fitness and mental state had improved, and he was ready to attempt breaking through as a level-7 blacksmith!

Hearing these words, a complex expression appeared on everyone's faces...

Xu Lizhi generously praised, "Wulin is planning to break through as a level-7 blacksmith so soon? That's incredible!"

Xu Xiaoyan also expressed her joy, "Yeah, I believe Wulin can definitely do it. When that happens, we won't need to pay a significant price to hire other blacksmiths!"

One must know that just the materials for a piece of Three-Word Battle Armor are exorbitantly expensive, not to mention the blacksmith's fee!

Ye Xinglan gave a slight nod, "That's good, we're still using One-Word Battle Armor, it's indeed time for an upgrade. Wulin, go for it!"

Yuanen Yehui hesitantly said, "If possible, could you also make one for me? The Yuanen Clan will offer a fair price!"

Xie Xie put an arm around Yuanen Yehui, "Hey, Ye Hui, you're being too formal. What Wulin means is, if he succeeds in becoming a level-7 blacksmith, we'll only need to prepare the materials, and we won't have to worry about the rest, right, Wulin?"

Tang Wulin chuckled, "Yes! We're all companions, making the armor is not a big issue, but the prerequisite is that everyone must provide their own materials."

His own wealth was not abundant; being able to gather the materials needed for his Three-Word Battle Armor was lucky enough!

Yuanen Yehui gratefully said, "Then thank you very much."

Then, with her icy gaze, she swept a look at Xie Xie, "Xie Xie, let go of your hand, or I won't mind dismantling it!"

Xie Xie retracted his hand reluctantly, but his heart was full of pleasure because Yuanen Yehui had refrained from scolding him!

This signified that their intimacy had improved significantly from before!

Tang Wulin waved his hand, "Alright, that's all for now. Everyone, take care on your journey!"

Then, everyone parted ways for the time being...

Spirit Pagoda!

Qiangu Qingfeng looked at the Spirit Transmission Tower Disciple in front of him with his solemn gaze and inquired, "Speak up, is there something you need to report to the Pagoda Master?"

The Spirit Transmission Tower Disciple lifted his head and reported, "Reporting to the Pagoda Master, Vice Tower Master, our Artificial Spirit Souls have re-entered the market circulation, and the sales have returned to their peak!"

"But..."

Qiangu Qingfeng's brows furrowed slightly, "But what?"

The Spirit Transmission Tower Disciple hesitated before speaking again, "But it has faced strong resistance from the Douling Land, on the grounds that our Spirit Pagoda previously collaborated with evil Soul Masters, making us untrustworthy!"

"Didn't we inform the responsible persons of the Douling Empire that our Spirit Pagoda has already re-elected a new Pagoda Master?" Qiangu Qingfeng pursued the matter.

The Spirit Transmission Tower Disciple cautiously replied, "We've explained it clearly, but to little effect. Although we can get it into the Douling Empire, practically no one is buying! So, a large stockpile has accumulated."

Leng Yaozhu raised an eyebrow, "Are they resisting us at the Spirit Pagoda just for that reason? Could it be that the Douling Empire has also developed a method to create Artificial Spirit Souls?"

With a very definitive tone, Qiangu Qingfeng stated, "Impossible! The craftsmanship required to create Artificial Spirit Souls is extremely precise and far more difficult than that of ordinary Spirit Souls. Other than the Spirit Pagoda, it's unlikely any other force could achieve it!"
