Douluo Dragon King: Martial Soul Spring and Autumn Cicada, Lord of Time

"What?! Class Zero?! What the hell is this?!"

"Has there ever been a Class Zero in the history of Donghai Academy?"

"Our dance teacher is going to Class Zero, what should we do?"

......

Upon hearing Long Hengxu's words, the trainees below the stage immediately erupted in discussion.

Clearly, this is an unprecedented move in the history of Donghai Academy!

Everyone started speculating about who would have the chance to become a formal member of Class Zero.

"Quiet, everyone, quiet!"

Seeing this noisy scene, Long Hengxu hurriedly activated his soul power and shouted loudly.

Under Long Hengxu's control, the noise at the scene gradually subsided.

"The first batch of students in Class Zero are—"

"Class 1, Grade 1: Zhao Tao, Gu Yue, Xie Xie!"

"Class 2, Grade 1: Wang Jinxi, Wei Xiaofeng, Zhang Yangzi!"

"Of course, those who weren't selected shouldn't be discouraged!"

"In the future, if you perform exceptionally well, you may be added to Class Zero!"

"Of course, those already in Class Zero shouldn't relax. If they don't meet the training goals, they may be dynamically removed from Class Zero!"

"In conclusion, the doors of Class Zero will always be open to the best!"

Seeing that the students had quieted down, Long Hengxu slowly announced the list of students in Class Zero.

"Congratulations, Brother Tao!"

"However, I may not be able to fight alongside you all anymore!"

Upon hearing Long Hengxu's words, Tang Wulin, who had been secretly hoping that he might be selected for Class Zero, completely gave up hope.

Yes, I am just a level 12 Soul Master and I have only played one match in the promotion tournament. How could I possibly be selected for Class Zero?

Although he felt a little disappointed, Tang Wulin was genuinely happy for Zhao Tao.

He forced a smile and offered his blessings to Zhao Tao.

"Wu Lin, thank you!"

"But don't be too discouraged!"

"Although you're not on the first list, if someone withdraws, the spot might be given to someone else!"

"Furthermore, you have an advantage that other students don't possess: your second career!"

"This will be a great help in applying to advanced Soul Master academies and participating in Soul Master competitions!"

"You could try talking to your dance instructor and ask him to help you!"

Upon hearing Tang Wulin's words, Zhao Tao patted Tang Wulin on the shoulder and made a suggestion.

Tang Wulin's absence from Class Zero's roster was something Zhao Tao had expected.

After all, unlike his previous life, Tang Wulin now not only did not fuse with the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, but also did not have any outstanding performances in the competition.

Under these circumstances, it's quite normal that he didn't receive a recommendation for Class Zero.

However, in order to better care for Tang Wulin, properly help him reform his thinking, and control the awakening speed of his Golden Dragon King bloodline, they decided to...

Zhao Tao felt that it would be safer and more convenient to keep Tang Wulin by his side!

Therefore, Zhao Tao smiled slightly and gave Tang Wulin an idea!

Admittedly, Tang Wulin's martial soul and soul power were a hindrance, but his excellent second profession made up for it!

"Thank you, Brother Tao!"

Upon hearing Zhao Tao's words, Tang Wulin's eyes lit up.

Then he jogged over to Wu Changkong's side and whispered to him.

After Long Hengxu announced the exciting news of the establishment of Class Zero.

"Classmates, I'm sure you're all curious about why a special Class Zero was suddenly created!"

"..."

"Now, the rest of you may leave. Dance teacher and students of Class 0, Grade 1, follow me."

Yu Zhen, the dean of Donghai Academy, also gave a speech, and finally led Wu Changkong, Zhao Tao, and six other students to the dean's office.

"Children, you are the most outstanding students at Donghai Academy. Even if you were placed in the promotion competition for higher grades, you would still have a chance to win the championship!"

"However, there are always people stronger than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. Although your strength is not bad, compared to the elite soul masters of Heaven Dou City, Mingdu, and even Shrek City, the gap between you is still very large!"

"The reason we at East Sea Academy created this special Class Zero is to give you the opportunity to catch up with those elite Soul Masters, and even strive to become the number one academy on the continent—Shrek Academy!"

"Children, do you understand?"

Looking at the six students in front of him, Yu Zhen was full of admiration, but he still pretended to be stern when he spoke.

"We understand!"

Upon hearing Yu Zhen's words, Zhao Tao and the other six trainees nodded in agreement.

"Very good! This is the agreement for joining Class Zero. Take a look, and if there are no problems, please sign it!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhen nodded in satisfaction, then took out six copies of the agreement from his storage soul tool and handed them to the six people respectively.

The agreement is not complicated, and there is only one restriction on the trainees.

That means once you join Class Zero, you choose to receive training from the academy.

Unless they are admitted to Shrek Academy, they must continue their studies in the intermediate and advanced sections of Donghai Academy and are not allowed to transfer schools midway.

"Dean, could you please let us discuss the contents of this agreement with our families?"

Looking at the agreement in his hand, Xie Xie asked hesitantly.

"Sure, but you don't need to get involved in Class Zero's affairs. We don't need someone who's half-hearted."

Upon hearing Xie Xie's words, Yu Zhen replied calmly.

"Dean, I'm sorry, I cannot sign this agreement!"

"At the advanced level, my family will definitely send me to a better academy for further studies."

Upon hearing Yu Zhen's words, a complex look flashed in Wei Xiaofeng's eyes, and he ultimately chose not to sign the agreement.

"Alright, everyone has their own ambitions. You can go back now."

Upon hearing Wei Xiaofeng's words, Yu Zhen remained calm and took the agreement back from Wei Xiaofeng's hand.

As for Zhao Tao, he did not hesitate and signed the agreement directly.

After all, getting into Shrek Academy was no more difficult for him than chopping vegetables!

Gu Yue, after seeing Zhao Tao sign the agreement, signed it without hesitation.

Finally, Xie Xie, seeing that Zhao Tao and Gu Yue had both chosen to join Class Zero, dispelled his doubts and signed the agreement.

On the other hand, Wei Xiaofeng from Class 2 of Grade 1 chose to give up.

However, Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi chose to join Class Zero.

"Very good. From today onwards, you will become the true elite of the academy, and all the resources of the academy will be tilted towards you!"

"As for your goal, there is only one: to strive for the top Soul Master Academy on the continent—Shrek Academy. Go for it, kids!"

Looking at the five people who had just signed the agreement, Yu Zhen instantly changed his expression, becoming all smiles and encouraging them.

"Yes, Dean!"

Hearing Yu Zhen's words, the five of them nodded vigorously.

"Dean, as the class advisor for Class Zero, I would like to recommend a student to join Class Zero!"

Just then, Wu Changkong, who had been silent all along, suddenly stood up and spoke.
