Douluo Continent: Not enough bloodline? Make up for it with brains!

Xu Yuan estimated that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Douluo Continent itself would truly begin to regress after a period of time.

This process is also likely to be irreversible.

Back to topic.

Xu Yuan slowly stepped forward and received a warm welcome from the second-grade teacher.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

"Teacher, I've enrolled in the second-year mecha piloting class. Shouldn't the classes be held here?" Xu Yuan took out Wu Changkong's certificate and politely inquired to confirm that this was indeed the mecha piloting classroom.

Xingyu looked embarrassed.

This is indeed where classes are held, although there are only three people here.

"You're only a first-year student. You can wait until next semester to learn how to operate mechs. Are you sure you want to start now?" Xingyu frowned, looking at Xu Yuan and asking very seriously.

Although he was happy to have new students attending his lectures and welcomed a new junior student who was interested in mecha, he also had to remind this junior student that graduation was the key.

If first-year students waste time on mecha piloting right after entering school, it could seriously hinder their normal training.

Xu Yuan sensed Xingyu's helplessness when he heard Xingyu's question.

If someone comes to your class, do you still have to worry that they might become distracted and neglect their studies because of your class?

Is this the current state of mechs at Shrek Academy?

Although mecha pilots are much weaker than battle armor pilots, they have always been a considerable force on the continent. Apart from those who possess four-word battle armor forged from celestial metal, the overall strength of mecha pilots is no weaker than that of battle armor pilots.

Without material limitations, mech pilots will only be more powerful than battle armor pilots.

Although these assumptions are funny, they are also true.

Mechs do have room for further development.

"Senior, my teacher approved this certificate for me, so why aren't you reassured about this?"

Xingyu suddenly realized this.

"Well then, welcome to the mecha piloting course. I am the teacher of the second-year mecha piloting course, and also your senior. My name is Xingyu, and I graduated from the Inner Academy five years ago."

Graduated five years ago?

“Strictly speaking, your dance teacher and I were in the same year of the inner academy. I am three years older than him.”

Being able to enter the Inner Academy is already an achievement, making one of the top talents on the entire continent. After all, the requirements for the Inner Academy are extremely demanding. Becoming a Battle Armor Master before the age of twenty-five is a talent that any power would absolutely want to nurture, and such individuals could potentially become the top combat force of that power in the future.

Xingyu was able to enter the Inner Academy, which means he must have become a Battle Armor Master before the age of twenty-five. Wu Changkong, who entered the Inner Academy in the same year, is three years younger than him, which means that Wu Changkong must have become a Battle Armor Master before the age of twenty-two.

No, it might have been even earlier.

Xu Yuan could sense the powerful soul energy fluctuations emanating from the senior student named Xingyu in front of him.

This surge of soul power was stronger than Shen Yi's and more powerful than Wu Changkong's.

"Senior, may I ask about your current soul power level?" Xu Yuan asked curiously.

Only three years older, and Wu Changkong was just in a slump for a while, how could there be such a big difference?

Xingyu hadn't expected Xu Yuan to be curious about this, and had no intention of hiding anything.

"I just obtained my eighth spirit ring, making me an eighty-one-level Soul Douluo," he said with a smile.

Xu Yuan clicked his tongue.

Contra.

Teacher Wu, look, look! All your classmates from the same year have reached the Soul Douluo level, and you've only just broken through to Soul Saint.

Although he's three years older, Wu Changkong and this senior Xingyu entered the inner academy at the same time with that three-year age difference. Since he's ten levels behind, it means he's indeed wasted too much time these past few years, causing his previous advantage to be gradually overtaken.

"Senior Xingyu, I'll be learning mecha piloting from you from now on."

Xu Yuan did not address his teacher as such.

Since I'm just here to audit the class, and he's a senior, calling him "senior" won't hurt me; it might even help us get closer.

Contra, a mecha pilot, is also a Battle Armor Master because he is an inner student of Shrek Academy.

These three points combined demonstrate that this senior student, Xingyu, is definitely not an ordinary person.

He's pursuing three paths simultaneously, and his talent is exceptional.

"I'm very happy that a new junior wants to learn about mecha," Xingyu said with a bright smile.

He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Junior, your name is Xu Yuan, right? I haven't asked you yet what your goal is in learning mecha."

"Of course, I want to become a mecha pilot, and continue to study mecha in the future to become the top mecha pilot," Xu Yuan said earnestly.

Xingyu nodded repeatedly.

Yes, that's right.

He turned to look at the other two students and glared at them.

The two second-year students were speechless and shrugged.

There was no other way; the two of them were just there to get credits and learn about mecha so they could use them for transportation in the future.

Mechs are much more convenient than soul-guided cars. Both of them are well-off and can afford to equip themselves with mechs, which is why they think this way.

"Junior, don't you think that researching mecha will interfere with your normal training and the creation of your battle armor?" Xingyu asked.

"No, true geniuses only learn more and more, and their knowledge will complement each other. I believe this also applies to mecha and battle armor," Xu Yuan said calmly.

Battle Armor originated from mecha; its true technology was a simplification of mecha. However, Battle Armor had its prototype before the development of mecha.

Ten thousand years ago, Mingde Hall possessed the ability to manufacture soul tool armor, but the enhancement was limited. According to the soul tool level system at that time, it could only produce a complete set of soul tool armor with a maximum level of six.

Moreover, the original soul tool armor only had a pure amplification effect, and it did not have the effect of the current battle armor being integrated into the soul master's martial soul and truly equipped on the martial soul.

However, there is no doubt that the prototype of battle armor was this kind of soul tool armor.

However, it cannot be denied that Battle Armor is a simplified version of mecha.

At the same time, there is another point, which is that the development of mechs initially incorporated related technologies of soul-guided armor.

It can be said that battle armor and mechs have always been intertwined and complementary since their birth and development.

"Well said!" Xingyu smiled brightly.

I met a junior student with high moral character.

“Junior, because of what you said, you can come and ask me any questions you have about building your mecha!” Xingyu said generously.

"Thank you so much, senior."

"Don't be so polite, junior. Use the standard mechs provided by the Mech Pilot Association for training first. Once you have your own mech, you can switch to your own for training." Xingyu said, "By the way, junior, do you have any ideas about mechs? I mean, mechs with similar body shapes and functions."

"Yes, I'll try to make it as lightweight as possible. I plan to combine mecha and battle armor in combat in the future. As for its function, I prefer amplification, amplification in mecha mode, and if I have the opportunity to upgrade it to a red-level mecha in the future, it can transform into a spear carrier in single combat, which can materialize and fuse with my martial soul, and form a second layer of amplification for my martial soul."

Xingyu blinked and looked at Xu Yuan.

That's a huge goal.

I'm not even a Red-level Mech Pilot yet, you senior.

"Haha, your idea is perfect. Having a goal will help you stay steadfast in your path. I hope you can own your own red-level mech soon."

"Then I'll take your kind words, senior."

After a brief exchange, Xingyu led Xu Yuan to the other two students.

"Those two are just trying to get credits, don't follow their bad example," Xingyu said bluntly.

The two senior students were very embarrassed.

"Junior, do you have any prior experience piloting mechs?"

"No." Xu Yuan shook his head, but hesitated for a moment before saying, "But I understand the mecha's control system and devices."

He had personally built two or three complete mechs, so he was naturally very familiar with the control systems and devices inside the mechs.

"Oh? It seems the preparations have gone quite well."

Being able to understand the system and apparatus well already shows that you've taken this course very seriously; you've prepared well.

"Then you give it a try first." Xingyu thought for a moment and decided to let Xu Yuan control the mecha first to see how good his piloting talent was.

With his strength, even if Xu Yuan made a mistake, he could easily suppress a standard yellow-level mech in an instant.

Xingyu waved his right hand, and a yellow standard-issue mech appeared on the open ground.

"Let's go in and give it a try."

Xu Yuan nodded, activated the mecha, and instantly entered the mecha's control room.

This standard yellow mech is five meters tall. After Xu Yuan sits down in the control room, there is still a lot of room to move around, making it a relatively comfortable type of mech.

However, this is a large mecha, not the type of mecha Xu Yuan had previously mentioned wanting to own.

There are no lightweight, small mechs in the standard mechs; only mech pilots can customize and build this type of mech.

"Standardized mechs have more lenient blueprints and are more standardized in their production, making them suitable for the vast majority of Soul Masters. They also have an advantage in that their control system is the most basic, serving as a learning machine for controlling any mech," Xingyu said.
