Douluo Continent: The Book of Witness and Peerless Tang Sect

The next day at dawn, after practicing the Purple Demon Eye, Long You and his group entered Shrek Academy.

Because Long You, He Caitou, and Zhang Lexuan needed to go to the Soul Guidance Department, the task of leading Huo Yuhao to report for duty was handed over to Bei Bei and Tang Ya.

As they entered the iron-gray teaching building of the Soul Guidance Department, listening to the sounds coming from the experimental areas on both sides of the corridor, Long You and He Caitou couldn't help but smile. Both of them genuinely identified with the profession of Soul Guidance Master, so they always felt a sense of familiarity when entering this place that could "incubate" various Soul Guidance Devices.

Walking briskly to the last door in the first-floor corridor, Long You took out his identification card as usual (thanks to Long You's efforts, the Soul Guidance Department had abandoned the bulky identification tokens and switched to using campus cards), ready to swipe it to open the access control.

However, something happened that left Long You dumbfounded. Just half a month ago, his campus card could be swiped smoothly to open the heavy metal door in front of him, so why was he now being told that he did not have enough permissions?

He Caitou followed closely behind Long You, and he could clearly see the large access control display on the screen. Unconvinced, he swiped his own student card, only to receive the same message. He Caitou was now completely stumped.

"What's going on?"

Touching his brilliant head, He Caitou looked at Long You with a bewildered expression. They had brought guests with them, and now they couldn't even get in the door. What kind of situation was this?

"I don't know, let's ask Senior Brother Lin. The door to Experiment Area No. 12 can't be opened, so it's difficult for either of us to go to the private underground laboratory or to go upstairs to the teacher's office."

After all, both the stairs leading upstairs and downstairs are inside. I don't know if peeking through the windows or digging tunnels will provoke a counterattack from the Soul Guidance System's defenses.

"Senior Sister (On the way to the Soul Guidance Department, Long You had already introduced Zhang Lexuan's identity to He Caitou, so now when talking to Zhang Lexuan, he directly called her Senior Sister), you'll have to wait a while. I knew before that the Soul Guidance Department seemed to be making some big moves recently, but I didn't expect it to be this big, even changing the access control."

"It's okay, as long as I'm not on a mission, I have plenty of free time."

Mobile phones, convenient communication soul tools, have long been deployed in the Soul Guidance Department. Even if some junior students are unable to make their own mobile phones, their instructors will arrange for some senior students with fewer tasks to help them.

As long as the tutor provides some compensation for rare metal materials, and the lower-year students are a little more diligent, the upper-year students won't mind lending a hand.

The call request was sent, and the other end answered rather slowly. However, after the call ended, a senior student wearing a black school uniform from the School of Foreign Languages ​​quickly ran out from the adjacent Experimental Area No. 11.

"Junior Brother He (this title always reminds me of Sha Wujing's Junior Brother Sha), Junior Brother Long, you're finally back. Eh? Senior Sister? What brings you to our Outer Court's Soul Guidance Department?"

The senior brother Lin that He Caitou called out was a fifth-year student in the outer academy of the Soul Guidance Department. He had quite good talent and it should be a sure thing for him to enter the inner academy in the future. Therefore, this senior brother Lin was quite familiar with Zhang Lexuan's appearance and strength.

However, it was precisely because of their familiarity that Senior Brother Lin was even more surprised to see Zhang Lexuan in the Outer Academy's Soul Guidance Department.

Speaking of which, although this Senior Brother Lin is not Fan Yu's direct disciple, Fan Yu is indeed his mentor.

Because Fan Yu didn't have many students, and he didn't show any favoritism in his teaching, relying entirely on ability, his two direct disciples, Long You and He Caitou, had harmonious relationships with the other students. Among them, the most harmonious relationship was with Lin Zhengze, the cheerful and self-proclaimed fire mage, also known as Senior Brother Lin.

"Senior Brother Lin, you're all sweaty, are you busy? But Senior Brother Lin, what are you doing in Experiment Zone 11?"

Perhaps it was for the sake of his disguise, but He Caitou seemed rather awkward in interpersonal interactions. Seeing Lin Zhengze rush out, He Caitou simply nodded with a sheepish smile. The task of greeting his senior brother would have to be left to Long You.

"Greetings, Senior Sister." Faced with Long You's questions and concern, Lin Zhengze greeted Zhang Lexuan first. Whether one is a Soul Master or a Soul Instructor, strength is the only true measure of authority.

Even if Zhang Lexuan only used one hand, Lin Zhengze, He Caitou, and Long You, tied up, could only be hung up and beaten. Therefore, according to etiquette, Lin Zhengze had to greet Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister of the inner courtyard, first.

Seeing that Zhang Lexuan calmly returned the greeting, Lin Zhengze turned to Long You and said, "Junior Brother Long, you don't know! Less than two days after you and Junior Brother He left, our Soul Guidance Department underwent a major overhaul."

Access to Experiment Zone 12 has been upgraded to Level 8, completely closing off access to us trainees. In addition, all the independent laboratories in the underground area have been demolished.

I helped with the demolition and reconstruction of the underground area; it wasn't just demolition, but also reinforcement and expansion.

To meet the deadline, not only did our Dean Xian and Dean Qian personally act as demolition workers, but even Elder Xuan from the Sea God Pavilion got involved. I even saw the true form of the Gluttonous Divine Ox's martial spirit.

"What the heck is this? I saw the Bright Iron in the teacher's hands before, senior brother, do you know what this means?"

"Good heavens! What's wrong with the academy? Even if Dean Qian's Panlong Realm is officially launched, is this the kind of big fuss we need?"

"Hey, let's get down to business. This underground area has been demolished, and we can't go into number twelve anymore. What happened to our lab stuff? Where are we going to do missions now? And our senior sister came here specifically to fully activate and bind the Panlong Helmet, where are we going to get that?"

"What? Senior Sister is going to use Panlong? Senior Sister, is this for real?"

In the hearts of Shrek Academy's outer court students, the inner court is a sacred place, and all matters involving the inner court have an inherently higher priority. The laboratory issues of Long You and He Caitou can be put aside for now, but the inner court's senior sister Zhang Lexuan wants to test the Soul Guidance Department's greatest achievement in recent years, so that must be confirmed and processed immediately.

“That’s true. On this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest, I tried out the tactical goggles made by your Soul Guidance Department, and they were quite useful. Long You told me that the Soul Guidance Department has even more interesting things, and I’m going to try them out.”

"Arrange it, arrange it right away. Senior Sister, come with me. The tactical helmet and tactical goggles that Long You gave you are too low-level. They must be replaced with better ones. Otherwise, you might not feel comfortable once the Panlong Realm is fully opened."

"Senior Brother Lin, do we have any high-level Panlong sets in stock?"
