Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting - Chapter 625

625 – The 33 Wings Plan

​​Lan Xuanyu thought to himself, ‘This isn’t easy at all! How big must a space storage equipment that can accommodate a space fighter be?’

Of course, he wouldn’t say it in front of Tang Zhenhua. After all, his teacher’s plan was very good.

“Teacher, when can we get these mechas?” Lan Xuanyu asked excitedly.

Tang Zhenhua glanced at him and said, “When you guys are rich enough, those implants of yours aren’t enough to exchange for. The seven of you don’t even have enough. Shapeshifting mechas need to be made using rare metals. It’s quite expensive!”

Lan Xuanyu said, “Doesn’t the academy have any funds for our Star War Experiment class?”

Tang Zhenhua said, “The rules of the academy cannot be changed. If you want to become stronger and have strong equipment, you have to rely on yourself. So, when you’re in your fourth year and go on missions, it will be the time for you to earn your emblems. Let your classmates work hard.”

Lan Xuanyu asked, “How many mechas can we have with these implants ?”

Tang Zhenhua said, “Two.”

Lan Xuanyu said, “What about adding my emblems?” As he spoke, he poured out all his purple emblems.

Tang Zhenhua’s mouth twitched as he looked at the pile of purple emblems. His disciple was richer than him!

Lan Xuanyu’s face was filled with excitement. At this moment, he really looked like a youth.

Shapeshifting mechas were simply too cool. He was determined to get it!

Tang Zhenhua said, “Keep some emblems for your daily training. At the very least, you’ll need enough to use until you’re in your fourth year. Around 30 purple emblems. The remaining emblems and the implants are barely enough for the seven of you to make mechas, but it will take over a year and a half.”

“Alright, no problem.” Lan Xuanyu agreed without hesitation and took back 30 purple emblems, leaving the rest for Tang Zhenhua.

“Teacher, sorry to trouble you.”

“You’re really generous.” Tang Zhenhua couldn’t help but say as he looked at the purple emblems on the ground. Lan Xuanyu wasn’t spending money for himself, but for his teammates. The value of these purple emblems wasn’t small!

Lan Xuanyu chuckled. “This is something we earned anyway, and it would be great to use them to increase our strength. Teacher, please continue to train my classmates in space fighter piloting. Just thinking about how over 30 of us can pilot mechas that can turn into fighters makes me so excited!”

Tang Zhenhua nodded as his eyes flickered. “I will. This is also my dream.”

The first years—no, the second years—were completely unaware that their class leader had already arranged for the next hellish space fighter pilot training for them before school started.

School had reopened. Lan Xuanyu and his teammates were all promoted to second years. They were not eliminated, but there were no rewards either.

After entering the second year, they were still as busy with their studies. With their rapid improvement during their first year, everyone learned many things, especially after they were established as the Star War Experiment class, they had an additional course in the Space Command faculty.

The Space Command course was the most miserable and difficult for all of them, including Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu’s mecha piloting partner was his teacher, Tang Zhenhua. While the others were being tortured by space fighter piloting every day, Lan Xuanyu was already being ravaged by mecha piloting. Tang Zhenhua would never show him any mercy.

With so many classes, their daily lives were extremely tense and fulfilling; they barely had any time for themselves.

But Lan Xuanyu continued the habit he established during his first year. On the last day of every week, he would go around the city with his friends to eat good food and go to the auction to relax.

Nana’s reminder during his vacation allowed him to clearly understand that no matter how strong his Martial Soul was or how talented he was, if he just kept moving forward and didn’t adjust, there would be a day when he would collapse.

At the same time, after entering their second year, the most important task for the entire class was to craft their own Battle Armor and become a One-Word Battle Armor Master. This was the requirement for second-year students in Shrek Academy’s Outer Court to be promoted. Although they were in the Star War Experimental Class and had many classes, they still had to complete it without any preferential treatment.

Hence, after entering the second year, it was unavoidable for them to be like their seniors in the past. Their cultivation speed dropped drastically and they entered a stable period of learning, cultivating, and making Battle Armors.

This seemingly slow growth rate was also Shrek Academy’s teaching method. This method allowed the students to buffer themselves during the learning and improvement process and not pursue an increase in soul power blindly. Shrek never had to worry about the increase in soul power for their students. They had to focus on an overall improvement and a solid foundation.

Lan Xuanyu and his six teammates were the same. Throughout the entire second year, they didn’t show off anymore and didn’t cause any trouble. They were just like ordinary students, busy and cultivating every day. There weren’t any major incidents, and everything seemed peaceful.

It was the same for their second and third year. In the blink of an eye, two years had passed. The students of the Star War Experiment class had grown up.

***

Heaven Luo Planet.

Early in the morning, when the first ray of sunlight entered the room, Lan Xuanyu rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up on the bed. The thin silk quilt slid down his upper body, revealing his tight muscles. He wasn’t especially robust, but every muscle was well-defined and his entire body was brimming with the aura of youth and sunshine.

His short black hair was soft and slightly messy. He stretched his back and let out a sigh. “Oh, sleeping is still the most comfortable! But it’s also the most luxurious.”

The first semester of his fourth year was over and he was on vacation. He had returned to his home in Heaven Luo Planet and reunited with his parents. This was also the most relaxing period for him and he could rest well for a few days. Just like the past few years, he would completely give up on cultivating these few days and wouldn’t even meditate. He would simply rest and accompany Nan Cheng.

Lan Xiao wasn’t around and had gone to take part in interstellar exploration work again. Along with the interstellar exploration he had done these few years, Lan Xiao was promoted very quickly and became a glorious senior colonel in the Douluo Federation.

Nan Cheng was still working as per usual, a lieutenant colonel.

They were very satisfied with their lives. After all, they had such an outstanding son.

Lan Xuanyu had grown taller and was almost 15 years old, but in Shrek Academy’s registration, he was almost 16 years old. He was now 1.8 meters tall and was considered above average among his peers.

The young boy had gradually transformed into a young man. His appearance didn’t lose its original beauty as he grew up; instead, it became more intense. Following his puberty, the girls in the Outer Court would subconsciously look at him. This also made Lan Xuanyu become the true school hunk of Shrek Academy’s Outer Court.

Lan Xuanyu, when he was in his first year, was definitely the most outstanding and eye-catching student. He had occasionally caused a commotion in the Inner Court, but after his second year, he had become more reserved and focused on cultivating, becoming a good class leader. The entire Star Wars Experimental class appeared to be very low-profile, not only to the public, but also within the academy. There were no longer any acts of challenging seniors.

So much so that after more than two years, their former prestige had gradually faded. Now the freshmen from the first three years didn’t have much of an impression of their fourth years.

“Mommy, what do we eat this morning!” Lan Xuanyu pushed open the bedroom door and walked out.
