Douluo Continent: My Days in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 54 With such an outstanding younger brother, of course the older brother should slack off!

Chapter 54 With such an outstanding younger brother, of course the older brother should slack off!

The school bell rang, and the two homeroom teachers, Wang Yan and Zhou Yi, practically stepped into the classroom as it rang. Of course, Zhou Yi was followed by a sleepy-looking Ye Nanxiao. 🐯☹ 🎁♣

"No way, why is this woman grabbing me to move documents again? Isn't this supposed to be a core disciple class? Where did all this documents come from?" Ye Nanxiao thought angrily, looking at the documents that reached his neck in his hands.

However, Zhou Yi turned around and glared at Ye Nanxiao, and Ye Nanxiao immediately fell silent.

Zhou Yi's aged face appeared calm, but her eyes were like sharp knives, coldly sweeping across the room.

The students who originally belonged to other classes of freshmen were a little better off, but those who were originally in Class One all felt a chill run down their spines.

They knew in their hearts that this old lady was probably about to unleash her fury.

Indeed, that was the case. After Wang Yan told Zhou Yi about it yesterday, he was scolded by Zhou Yi. Don't be fooled by the fact that Wang Yan has a higher status in the academy than Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi didn't care about any of that. She continued to scold Wang Yan, and after that, she went to check on Huo Yuhao herself. Only after confirming that Huo Yuhao was alright did she leave.

Ye Nanxiao also checked Huo Yuhao's body and found that it was just a minor injury. While rubbing Huo Yuhao's head, he planned how to enhance Huo Yuhao's strength.

Thinking of the second young master of the White Tiger Duke's family, a murderous intent flashed in Ye Nanxiao's eyes. However, Huo Yuhao needed a whetstone, so Ye Nanxiao could not make a move at the moment.

If you hurt my thigh, whose thigh will I be clinging to from now on?

After putting down the documents and looking at Dai Huabin and the others sitting in their seats, the temperature in the entire classroom instantly dropped several degrees.

While the students in Class One were still wondering, Dai Huabin saw Ye Nanxiao's cold eyes filled with murderous intent.

Feeling icy cold all over and with cold sweat constantly seeping from his back, Dai Huabin suddenly realized that he had forgotten that Huo Yuhao had an older brother. Although he didn't know how terrifying Ye Nanxiao was, Dai Yueheng had sternly warned him not to provoke Ye Nanxiao.

Zhu Lu and the others around Dai Huabin were also pale-faced.

Ye Nanxiao glared at Dai Huabin and the others before turning and walking out.

Ye Nanxiao did not hide his behavior. Wang Yan frowned but did not say anything. Zhou Yi, on the other hand, looked at Ye Nanxiao with great appreciation.

Then, Zhou Yi began to protect her own students. One by one, the students walked out of the corridor to stand as punishment. Huang Chutian, the first one to fly out, saw Ye Nanxiao sitting on an ice chair, staring at him and the others. He quickly stood up straight and didn't dare to breathe.

With Ma Xiaotao constantly dragging him to cultivate, Ye Nanxiao's current combat power means that, apart from Dai Yueheng, only Ma Xiaotao can barely contend with him among the Shrek Seven Devils of the Inner Court.

Now, Ye Nanxiao's soul power level has reached level 48, which makes Bei Bei and the others very puzzled. Why does Ye Nanxiao either hardly cultivate or is dragged by Ma Xiaotao to be a punching bag? How can his cultivation level improve so quickly?

Soon, Dai Huabin was thrown out by Zhou Yi. The moment he saw Ye Nanxiao, a deep sense of powerlessness welled up in Dai Huabin's heart, and he even forgot to get up from the ground.

"Oh dear, I'm just going to sit and rest for a bit. Why are you being so polite? This is unacceptable." Ye Nanxiao looked at Dai Huabin with a mocking expression and left as the latter's face paled.

Dai Huabin gritted his teeth, the flames of anger in his eyes almost tangible, "Huo Yuhao!" His hatred for Huo Yuhao deepened.

Xiao Xiao whispered, "Yuhao, did you notice? Teacher Zhou is standing up for you. I like her protectiveness, and your brother too. It's really satisfying."

Wang Dong's assessment was more concise: "Overbearing."

Huo Yuhao felt a warm glow in his heart and smiled foolishly.

After scaring Dai Huabin and his group, Ye Nanxiao continued his experiment on modifying Tang Clan hidden weapons as usual.

"Nanxiao, according to your theory, it is very difficult to modify the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle, but if it is successful, the power of the reborn Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle is estimated to be able to injure a Title Douluo." He Caitou was excitedly discussing with Ye Nanxiao.

Ye Nanxiao, a martial spirit cultivator, rarely attends classes and trains alone with Ma Xiaotao. Unless Elder Xuan has something important to attend to, Ye Nanxiao will generally not appear in Elder Xuan's classes, which is something Elder Xuan tacitly agrees with.

With Elder Xuan's approval, Ye Nanxiao spent every day at Fan Yu's place researching and improving Tang Clan hidden weapons with He Caitou.

Fan Yu looked at the two people who were as energetic as if they had been injected with chicken blood, shook his head helplessly, and showed a relieved smile on his face. He had tried something even crazier when he was young.

With the metal badge that Fan Yu gave him, Huo Yuhao entered the Soul Guidance Department without any obstacles and went straight to Experiment Zone Twelve.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Cai Tou and Ye Nanxiao busy at a huge metal table, while Fan Yu stood aside giving instructions.

"Teacher Fanyu, brother, and senior brother." Huo Yuhao hurriedly walked over and saw He Caitou and Ye Nanxiao fiddling with some metal parts.

"You're here. Not bad. I've heard about what you did. Well done. A man can't lose." Fan Yu said with a smile.

Ye Nanxiao patted Huo Yuhao's head and turned back to continue his research. He needed to quickly develop a few respectable Tang Clan hidden weapons so that the Tang Clan could sustain itself.

After greeting He Caitou and Huo Yuhao, Fan Yu led Huo Yuhao to a table and sat him down. Looking at Huo Yuhao, Fan Yu said, "You are my direct disciple, so my teaching methods will definitely be different from those of the academy's teachers. The study time will be more intensive. You will have to come and study with me for at least two hours after dinner before you can go back to rest. Is that alright?"

Huo Yuhao answered without hesitation, "No problem, teacher. I'm not afraid of hardship and will definitely study hard."

Fan Yu nodded and said, "You don't need to keep saying 'serious,' just show me. Like your brother, who always complains about being lazy but ends up being more diligent than anyone else. Tell me, what is a soul tool?"

Huo Yuhao was taken aback. His understanding of soul tools was limited to his observations during his two visits here and the soul tools that Ye Nanxiao had tinkered with himself. Although Ye Nanxiao had told Huo Yuhao about soul tools before, Ye Nanxiao's explanation was rather simple.

Fan Yu explained the basic knowledge about soul tools to Huo Yuhao in detail.

"You should know that Shrek Academy is the number one academy on the continent, but that refers to our Martial Soul Department. Our Soul Guidance Department is not the number one on the continent." As he said this, a light seemed to flicker in Fan Yu's eyes.

"First, the Mingde Hall of the Sun Moon Empire, right?" Ye Nanxiao overheard Fan Yu and Huo Yuhao's conversation.

"How do you know?" Fan Yu asked in confusion. Ye Nanxiao only knew about magic arrays and tinkered with Tang Clan hidden weapons. He had never mentioned anything like that. The academy knew very little about Mingde Hall.

"Jing Hongchen's granddaughter is quite pretty," Ye Nanxiao said before continuing to work diligently.

Fan Yu's forehead creased with exasperation. She glared at Ye Nanxiao and said, "You still expect to woo someone's granddaughter?"

Huo Yuhao looked at Ye Nanxiao in surprise. "Brother, has your status risen?" Ever since Huo Yuhao enrolled in Shrek Academy, he immediately realized that Jiang Nannan was the most powerful person. The seemingly domineering Ye Nanxiao could only be beaten by Jiang Nannan.

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Ye Nanxiao's forehead. Although Jiang Nannan had agreed, Ye Nanxiao didn't have the guts to do it right now.

"Mingdetang has a big fish in it. I remember there's a huge star sapphire there." Ye Nanxiao calculated in his mind the success rate of extorting Jing Hongchen. This guy is a cunning old fox.

As Fan Yu spoke, he stood up and took out a long, rectangular metal box. The box was about a foot long and a fist wide. It was completely black, with a square top and an arc bottom.

Fan Yu fastened the metal box to his left forearm, and it fit perfectly. Then, without knowing how he pressed it, the black metal suddenly changed.

The black metal instantly transformed into a soul tool with three metal tubes. Fan Yu explained, "This soul tool is called a sleeve cannon. It's a fairly common type of long-range soul tool, activated by soul power. Look."

As he spoke, Fan Yu raised his hand, and instantly, three beams of white light shot out from the three metal pipes. The intense soul power fluctuations shot out into the distance, hitting the distant metal wall and spreading out in circles of light.

"The principle of soul tools is actually very simple. It is to transform soul power into destructive energy through some special methods and means. Among these means, the most commonly used is compression, and the method to achieve these means is to inscribe a magic array."

At this point, Fan Yu pointed to Ye Nanxiao, who was working hard not far away, and a gratified smile appeared on his face. "Your brother is exceptionally talented in this area. In my career as a Soul Master, I have never seen anyone more outstanding than your brother."

As Fan Yu disassembled the soul tool in his hand, he explained it to Huo Yuhao.

"There is no shortcut to learning how to inscribe core magic arrays. First, you must memorize the magic arrays left behind by your predecessors with painstaking efforts. Then, you must keep trying with ordinary metals to make progress. Once you have learned the principles of various core magic arrays and can create your own, then you can graduate."

Next, Huo Yuhao received a set of forging equipment, including bellows, furnace, forging hammer, anvil, and so on. Fan Yu began to teach him forging step by step.

Fan Yu looked at the hardworking Huo Yuhao and nodded in approval.

"With him here, you don't have to worry about your skills declining." Ye Nanxiao walked over at some point.

"You're so lazy. If it weren't for Beibei and the others, you probably wouldn't have any interest in soul tools at all, right?" Fan Yu glared at Ye Nanxiao. Ever since she learned about Ye Nanxiao's original intention for learning soul tools from He Caitou, Fan Yu had held Ye Nanxiao in higher regard.

"You won't need me anymore soon." Ye Nanxiao crossed his arms and looked at Huo Yuhao, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

"What's wrong? Did your brother's hard work spur you on?" Fan Yu teased Ye Nanxiao, a rare occurrence for her.

"No, my younger brother is so outstanding, of course the older brother should slack off!" Ye Nanxiao said seriously.

"Can I hit you?"

After Huo Yuhao became Fan Yu's disciple, his meals became much more plentiful. He joked with Wang Dong as they walked out of the dining hall.

"Let's go back and rest for a while," Wang Dong said to Huo Yuhao after wiping his mouth.

Huo Yuhao said, "I still need to go to see Teacher Fanyu for another two hours of class. You can go back first."
