Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 9 Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy
Under Leng Yaozhu's arrangement, Lu Jun began to live a very regular life.

During the day, students learn theoretical knowledge and soul contracts; in the afternoon, they attend practical combat classes and basic training courses; and in the evening, they study a second profession related to crafting battle armor.

When I get home late at night, I rest by meditating for eight hours.

However, students still need to go to school.

Especially the academy for Soul Masters.

After all, Leng Yaozhu doesn't always have time to provide one-on-one guidance to Lu Jun.

Therefore, Leng Yaozhu has already made preparations for Lu Jun to enter the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

"You want to get into the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy?"

Lu Jun was somewhat surprised upon hearing this news.

He thought Leng Yaozhu was going to throw her into Shrek Academy, and he had prepared a million ways to refuse.

Getting into Shrek Academy? No way!
He didn't want to be brainwashed, and he certainly didn't want to fight for the honor of Shrek Academy.

"Yes, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy is the best choice. It can be said that it is the only top academy that can be compared with Shrek Academy."

Leng Yaozhu nodded.

Is Shrek Academy still the strongest on the continent?

"Although the Sun Moon Empire unified the Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago, causing serious damage to Shrek Academy, the foundation of the continent's number one academy is still deep enough."

"Even the Sun Moon Empire can't affect Shrek Academy much, let alone the fact that Shrek Academy has produced many excellent Soul Masters."

Lu Jun curled his lip in response.

Isn't it normal to only teach the most talented people on the entire continent and produce outstanding Soul Masters?
That would be truly amazing if someone could turn a good-for-nothing into a genius.

Leng Yaozhu explained, "It is precisely because of Shrek Academy's compromise that although we have not yet had a direct conflict with Shrek Academy, we are still adversaries to each other."

“You’re from the Spirit Pagoda. If they sent you to Shrek Academy, they’d probably deliberately make things difficult for you so you wouldn’t learn anything.”

"The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy is much better."

"I understand." Lu Jun breathed a sigh of relief.

No need to be brainwashed anymore.

"If you can defeat the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy in the match against Shrek Academy, you will be able to obtain more resources and attract more people to invest in you."

Leng Yaozhu sized up Lu Jun.

"You won't blame me for making you go and obtain cultivation resources yourself, will you?"

"How could that be? I'm already very grateful that Sister Leng adopted me." Lu Jun shook his head.

A look of relief rose on Leng Yaozhu's pretty face.

She encouraged Lu Jun to be self-reliant in order to cultivate his character.

The world of Soul Masters is cruel; relying solely on others will only lead to greater consequences in the future.

Independent people often perform better, and Leng Yaozhu was very satisfied with Lu Jun's character.

This led Leng Yaozhu to begin grooming Lu Jun as the future successor to the deputy tower master.

She would also lend a helping hand when Lu Jun was in trouble.

"Study hard this afternoon." Leng Yaozhu patted Lu Jun on the shoulder. "We'll see how you perform three years from now."

"If you make rapid progress, I will arrange for you to enter the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy ahead of schedule, and then have the people inside the Spirit Pagoda assess you to improve your status in the Spirit Pagoda."

"All you have to do is show your talent to the fullest."

Looking at Lu Jun, Leng Yaozhu's eyes practically lit up.

I will mold you into an existence even more powerful than Yun Ming!
……

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the classroom of the elementary academy, sunlight streamed through the windows onto the neatly arranged desks. As the semester drew to a close, the homeroom teacher, Mr. Lin, was holding a record board and tallying the students' soul power levels one by one.

"Next up, Wang Xiaoming."

"Teacher, I just broke through to level ten yesterday!" A chubby boy stood up proudly.

"Very good, you can prepare to go to the Spirit Pagoda to purchase your first Soul Spirit." Teacher Lin smiled as she took notes, then continued calling roll, "Next, Li Xiaoyu." The girl with the ponytail excitedly raised her hand:
"Teacher, I've reached level 10 too!"

A round of envious applause rang out in the classroom. At this age, breaking through level ten is already considered excellent; most students are still hovering around level seven or eight.

"Next, Lu Jun."

In the corner of the classroom, a black-haired boy slowly raised his head. He looked much more composed than the other children, and his eyes revealed a calmness that was beyond his years.

The white uniform accentuated his tall and slender figure. Three years had passed, and the once naive boy had shed his immaturity, replaced by a more composed and sharp demeanor.

His aura exudes a sharp, unsheathed sword-like sharpness.

He is also much taller than other children, which means he is getting adequate nutrition.

He was also much more mature than the other children in his class.

Seeing that the teacher was staring at him, Lu Jun said softly:

"Teacher, I'm already at level 30."

The calm voices exploded in the classroom.

"Clap."

The pen in Teacher Lin's hand fell to the ground.

The entire classroom fell silent instantly. All the students stared wide-eyed, as if they had heard something unbelievable.

"Thirty?! Thirty?!" Teacher Lin's voice trembled slightly.

Although she knew that Lu Jun was already in the thirteenth grade when he enrolled.

She also guessed that Lu Jun's identity and background were mysterious, like the child of some important person.

But only three years have passed, and he has risen seventeen levels in a row, reaching level 30 Soul Master when he was nine years old.

This is outrageous enough.

Lu Jun did not explain, and tested his soul power in front of the whole class.

A blatantly obvious level 30.

The classroom erupted in chaos.

"Impossible! My brother was only in level 23 at twelve!"

"Is this fake? Did he use some kind of illusionary soul tool?"

Teacher Lin's legs went weak, and she had to hold onto the podium to avoid falling to the ground.

She had been teaching for twenty years and had never seen such a prodigious genius.

A nine-year-old Soul Master—this has already broken the record for the youngest Soul Master in the history of the Sun Moon Federation!
At this age, reaching the level of a Great Soul Master is already considered the pinnacle of geniuses.

"Teacher, can I graduate now?"

The three-year period has come to an end, and Lu Jun can finally prepare to leave this academy and enroll in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

"Of course, child, I'll apply to the principal right away." Teacher Lin left the classroom in a hurry, not even bothering with the subsequent statistics.

"...The teacher treats you like a treasure, and doesn't even keep track of mine."

Gu Yuena, who was sitting at the same table as Lu Jun, teased him.

"That's normal. She's valued me quite a bit over the past three years."

Lu Jun didn't even look up and started packing his things.

Although we don't know the exact situation of this Silver Dragon King.

Wherever he went, Gu Yuena followed.

Furthermore, considering Hyotei's statement that he was a human form created from a divine artifact.

Lu Jun guessed that Gu Yuena might really want to obtain his divine artifact power, which was why she had been on good terms with him all along.
Thinking of this, Lu Jun shrank back slightly.

Sure enough, she was craving me.
