Chapter 21 Rounding Down? Becoming a Mech Pilot! [Please Read On]
"This Brother Lu Li..."
"Then you just wait and see."
Seeing Lu Li's serious expression, Wu Changkong nodded helplessly. Thinking about it, it made sense. Although the other party's cultivation was extraordinary, he still had more experience in teaching.
Let's leave it to him.
Lu Li, who was sitting in the student seat, stopped paying attention to Wu Changkong and instead focused his thoughts on the system space.
At this moment, a special little grass emitting a red glow appeared in the inventory.
[Plant: Dragon Grass]
[Age Limit: 100 years]
[This herb, said to have originated from the place where the Crimson Fire Dragon fell, is extremely beneficial to those with low-level beast spirits.]
"Hmm, a hundred-year-old fire dragon grass is probably only effective for the little guy at this stage."
Lu Li simply commented that Fire Dragon Grass is one of the top-ranked basic natural treasures, and it has a significant effect on improving physical constitution.
Because they possess a hint of dragon-like qualities, they are quite expensive. The price of a few decades-old dragon is nearly one million, while the market price of a hundred-year-old dragon is no less than three million federal dollars.
But for Lu Li, this thing was of course completely useless; taking a bite of it was less effective than eating a watermelon.
"Teacher Lu Li, there are no seats left in front."
"I'll sit right next to you."
Just then, a clear, cold voice came from beside him. Gu Yue had already sat down silently, a cool smile on her face, and slowly said.
"Um."
Lu Li nodded, his expression calm.
Although the Silver Dragon King's extraordinary wisdom was criticized, he didn't think the other party was too stupid, because Na'er was quite intelligent after all.
Besides, the two of them are one; come to think of it, many years ago, it was I who led the other home.
"Looks like they didn't recognize me."
"The Golden Holy Dragon King isn't all that great..."
Seeing that her greeting was ignored, Gu Yue muttered to herself, "Lu Li isn't so great after all!"
But the thought of being ignored by the person in front of her made her eyes turn cold. As the Silver Dragon King and the ruler of the dragon race, she still felt a chill in her eyes.
Even though she knew she was still a child, a cold glint flashed in her eyes as she felt ignored by the person in front of her.
Gu Yue's face turned cold. She silently crossed her arms and refused to look at the other person again: This guy doesn't know what it means to be the Silver Dragon King. Well, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future!
She can make the other party loyally grovel at her feet!
[Host, in Class Zero, your deskmate Gu Yue is very unhappy with your arrogant attitude and vows to show you what she's capable of and trample you underfoot.]
Therefore, to avoid attracting the attention of this top genius, please keep up the good work!
[Special Mission: You've Caught My Attention]
[Mission Objective: In the battle against Gu Yue at a certain time, do not suffer a humiliating defeat.]
[Mission rewards will be determined based on the battle outcome.]
"..."
Hearing the new task in his mind, Lu Li's lips twitched. At first, he thought it was another task, but he didn't expect it to be that the other party wanted to cause trouble.
What does it mean that arrogance aroused Gu Yue's hatred? He seemed to have just hummed in response...?
Is Gu Yue so radiant and stressed? Is this the aura of the little Silver Dragon King?
"Trample me under your feet..."
"Me...me?"
Lu Li's gaze inadvertently swept over Gu Yue beside him, and he felt more than just helpless; this mission would probably be much later in the game.
After all, even if he really wanted to get the reward, he wouldn't lay a hand on Gu Yue, who was only nine years old and had the strength of a Great Soul Master.
Of course, not hitting the child is one reason, but another is that even if he wanted to, he would have to have a proper showdown with the most loyal beastman, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian.
"..."
"Teacher Lu Li is actually going to attend our class."
In the first row, Tang Wulin and his four companions looked in Lu Li's direction, their faces filled with shock. Having a Title Douluo as a teacher was already unbelievable to them, but now…
The other party was even attending classes with them!
Is it because you're worried about the effectiveness of Teacher Wu Changkong's lectures that you're auditing the classes? Teacher Lu Li is really reliable!
"Coming to Donghai Academy was definitely the right decision."
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi exchanged a glance.
With their talent and the fusion skill, they would have been a force to be reckoned with, not only for Class 1, Grade 1 of Donghai Academy, but also for Tianhai Academy, which has a stronger overall ability.
But the two of them didn't choose to go because they love home, and their parents often regretted it. Now it seems like they really hit the jackpot!
Beside Zhang Yangzi, Wei Xiaofeng's eyes were the most fervent. He seemed to be thinking of something, his eyes darting around, his face brimming with excitement.
"Wei Xiaofeng, what's wrong?"
Xie Xie, standing to the side, looked puzzled, and even Tang Wulin, standing on the far side, turned his head to look.
"Phew, I was just thinking..."
"Look, what Teacher Lu Li is doing in Class Zero is obviously observing Teacher Wu's teaching abilities, but from another perspective, isn't he just a student in Class Zero?"
"And I was also a student in Class Zero."
Wei Xiaofeng's face flushed slightly as he chuckled.
"Rounding it up, am I Teacher Lu Li?"
"Does that mean I'll be a Title Douluo in the future? Hehehe!"
Everyone: "..."
Hey, you're a fucking genius!
At this moment, Gu Yue witnessed human stupidity once again and became even more convinced of his own intelligence.
Tang Wulin, Zhang Yangzi, and Xie Xie all hesitated, while the usually aloof Wang Jinxi surprisingly asked, "Could he really be a genius?"
"Wei Xiaofeng, you've thought it through. I admit you are indeed a genius; you are."
Xie Xie's expression was somewhat strange. As he spoke, he slowly gave a thumbs-up, maximizing the sarcastic effect.
"Right, it seems you have good taste."
Wei Xiaofeng glanced at him with some surprise.
Unexpectedly, this frail and defeated opponent actually understands him quite well. I made the right choice in making this friend.
"you're right……"
Xie Xie silently rubbed his forehead, feeling not only speechless but also contemptuous of himself.
How exactly did he lose to this person?
He felt so ashamed!
"Alright, that's enough about that."
Wu Changkong interrupted the conversation at just the right moment, but when his gaze swept over Wei Xiaofeng, a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes for the first time. Is this little guy really a genius?
Aside from having decent talent, he seems more like a special kind of "genius".
"Unlike the previous teaching content, in Class Zero, the subsequent courses will be divided into theoretical teaching, practical exercises, and special training, which you will learn about later."
"Next, we'll begin our first lesson for Class Zero, which is also our first theory lesson. Today we'll be discussing..."
"Mecha".
He wrote two words heavily on the blackboard, and the five boys who heard them were instantly wide awake.
Mechs, that's a man's romance!
"They're talking about mechs right off the bat!"
"Ms. Mai, isn't this part of the advanced course content?"
Xie Xie was both surprised and delighted, but still asked with doubt.
"That's right, it's advanced material, but there's no need for you to wait until then. What we're going to talk about now is just basic theoretical knowledge."
Wu Changkong nodded slightly and said slowly.
"The origin of mechs can be traced back to 10,000 years ago, when soul guidance technology was already unprecedentedly advanced, especially reaching its peak in the hands of Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao."
"And in the minds of Soul Masters, Soul Guidance Technology is no longer seen merely as weapons and armor, but rather as a means to better aid the growth of Soul Masters themselves..."
Wu Changkong spoke slowly.
Inside the classroom, the five boys in the first row listened patiently without saying a word, their eyes shining.
After all, mecha is a man's dream!
Although Gu Yue wasn't as excited as the boys, her eyes also held a serious and meticulous look—mecha!
Mecha, as a new technology for mankind, is one of the culprits that has driven soul beasts to their doom. She may not like it, but she absolutely cannot be indifferent to it!
At the same time, a wistful smile appeared on Lu Li's face, because it was clear that the system had begun a new round of growth tasks:
In the classroom of Class Zero, you heard about the concept of a mecha pilot. Under the guidance of the powerful homeroom teacher Wu Changkong, you couldn't help but imagine yourself piloting a mecha in battle, and your heart was filled with excitement at that moment.
[Own a mecha, pilot a mecha, operate a mecha!]
A new mission has been activated!
[Long-term mission: I must become a mecha pilot]
[Mission Objective: Become a mech pilot, own at least one Gundam of white quality, and pilot it safely.]
[Mission Reward: Top-tier mech body and core, at the mech quality level]
"Another growth-oriented task..."
"This is the kind of path that will make me an all-around master."
Lu Li chuckled softly. Fine, after all, mecha is a man's romance. But then again, who says…
He can't be a mecha pilot?
“…………”
Gu Yue: Lu Li! I will make you kneel down.
Lu Li: Are you talking about me? (laughs)
