Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting-Novel

Chapter 551 – Their Own Warship ?

“There is no doubt that such a hero is what the Federation needs. But in our opinion, a person’s strength is limited. Only a team is truly the strongest.”

“All of you know that in Shrek, there has been the glorious title of Shrek Seven Monsters since ancient times. It represents the strongest team in the academy and even the strongest team in the whole Federation. All of the Shrek Seven Monsters have left behind glorious achievements in the past. Whether it was Tang Sect’s founder, Sea God Tang San, the Spirit Pagoda’s founder, Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao, they were all past Shrek Seven Monsters. There is also that person when a great catastrophe happened to the academy and ended up destroyed as a whole, but he was still able to rebuild Shrek Academy above the ruins. Golden Dragon Moon Song Tang Wulin, who established Eternal Heaven City’s, was also the leader of that generation of Shrek Seven Monsters. Their generation built the foundation for our present. This is the strength of a team.”

“Following the progress and development of technology, we have already entered the era of interstellar colonization. If the Federation wants to become stronger and obtain more resources, we will need to develop further into space. And during this process, we will have to face countless difficulties and obstacles. No one knows what our future enemies will be like or how strong they will be. And at this time, individual strength is already insufficient. Unless you guys can become god-rank powerhouses, there is a limit to what an individual can do.”

“The plan for the Star War Experimental Class has been designed a very long time ago, and even its curriculum had been formulated a long time ago. However, the academy has never found a team that could do it because even in Shrek, there were outstanding and ordinary people in every generation. Some entered the Inner Court and some were eliminated. To have enough people to form a Star War Experimental Class, the Outer Court didn’t have the qualifications, and the Inner Court disciples’ individual abilities were already strong and distinct; they had their own more important missions to carry out. So, it was delayed until you guys appeared.”

“The overall strength of your class isn’t as strong as you think. Don’t think that just because you guys were able to defeat the representatives of the other years in the Outer Court and head to the Elven Planet, you guys will be able to fight against the upper years in the Outer Court. In fact, in terms of overall strength, you guys are still far behind. You were only able to take advantage thanks to the numerous restrictions placed on your opponent and your number.”

“Does the academy know that all of you aren’t strong enough? The academy naturally knows that. But why did they still choose all of you to be in the Star War Experiment class? There is only one reason, and that is unity. Your class’s unity allowed the academy to see that the most important foundation of the Star War Experiment class has appeared on all of you, which is why they made such a decision. In this aspect, the academy will invest a lot of resources on all of you. Many of them are resources that all of you will never be able to obtain and will be tailored for all of you.”

“The future that the Star War Experiment class has prepared for you is not individual heroism but a team, a team that can perform all sorts of difficult missions in space. You will have your own warship. All of you will soar in space and complete difficult missions.”

A warship?

Upon hearing these four words, Lan Xuanyu, who initially thought that his teacher’s impassioned explanation had an ulterior motive, straightened his back.

‘The academy will give us a warship? A space warship? One that can carry out various missions?’

All of a sudden, he felt a tingling sensation from his tailbone all the way to his head as his blood surged.

This was his childhood dream, his childhood dream!

Lan Xuanyu obviously knew how difficult it was to become a warship commander. They had to go through countless hardships and accumulate countless contributions before they could become a warship commander. And everything that his teacher had described meant that they could take shortcuts and obtain a warship from Shrek Academy. They could even command and pilot it themselves. How glorious was that!

Lan Xuanyu’s breathing became heavy.

What about the others? The others were obviously in a worse state than him.

Tang Zhenhua’s impassioned words had stirred up everyone’s emotions. Why did most people choose the Duo Mecha Master curriculum over the Interstellar Commanding department ? It was because it was too far away from them. It was too difficult to become a Space Commander.

But which youth didn’t like warships? They were the strongest force in the universe and the ultimate fighting power.

An individual’s strength was ultimately insignificant in front of a warship. Even a god-rank powerhouse wouldn’t be able to face a truly powerful warship head on.

They, a class, barely over 30 students, would have their own warship. What did this mean?

Excitement spread through everyone’s hearts.

“So, what you guys need to learn next is not just Duo Mecha Mastery. You need to learn how to pilot a space warship. You need to learn how to pilot a space warship, command, utilize weapons, and battle tactics in space. You need to learn how to adapt when you encounter various environments in the universe. You need to learn how to pilot a space warship to charge into the enemy’s ranks and carry out missions. The perfect combination of individual strength and warship.”

“The Star War Experiment class’ goal is to build a small team with a warship as the base, a strong and invincible planetary special team. From there, the team will carry out those difficult missions that an individual would never be able to complete. Behind you will be Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect’s full support.”

The average age of the first years was 13 years old. They were still a group of 13-year-olds, a group of hot-blooded youths who were fearless.

How could they resist such a beautiful dream? Without a doubt, Tang Zhenhua’s words were a success. At this moment, they seemed to be able to see the future of them piloting a warship, a class of 34 people, and dominating the universe.

“But!”

Right at this moment, Tang Zhenhua’s voice turned cold as though he had poured a bucket of cold water over everyone’s heads.

“If you want to truly command a warship, you must obtain the full support of the academy and the Tang Sect. The first thing you must do is to prove yourselves. The academy definitely doesn’t want to see the students that were groomed with all their might perish out there. All of you are the academy’s most precious students. Only by proving that all of you have sufficient ability to protect yourselves and when all of you have sufficient strength to face all sorts of difficult and dangerous situations will you truly be able to form this space special forces team. So, work hard, youths. Every drop of sweat that you put in will be forged for your future glory in space.”

At the end of his speech, Tang Zhenhua waved his arm and turned to Xiao Qi. He nodded and said indifferently, “Let’s go to class. I’ll be leaving first.”

Until Tang Zhenhua left the classroom, the first years had not recovered from his impassioned speech.

Let alone them, even Xiao Qi felt his blood boiling.

Teacher Tang actually had such a side to him? Wasn’t he the most unreliable of all the department heads? But then why was he “bewitched” by him?

Lan Xuanyu gradually calmed down. At first, he thought that his teacher was just trying to incite everyone, but towards the end of Tang Zhenhua’s speech, his eyes had lit up. He gradually understood that everything his teacher said was true and what he was hoping for.

Lan Xuanyu even thought that the concept of the Star War Experimental class was probably proposed by the teacher!

He clearly remembered that his teacher’s research direction was to develop a warship that was as small as possible but as strong as possible. He even fantasized about using god-rank metals to build an undamageable space warship.
