Security room at the entrance.

Xu Yuan and his group came to their door.

"Hello, what can I do for you?" the security guard asked curiously as he saw fourteen young people approaching together.

Chapter 175 Observatory (Please subscribe!!!)

A large group of people rushed into the security room, which startled the security guard.

Although they are all young men, it's precisely because they are young men that I'm afraid of them.

The security guard politely inquired about Xu Yuan's identity as the leader.

"Hello, we're looking for Li Zhilong, the director of the Academic Affairs Office."

"What do you need Director Li for?" the security guard asked, puzzled.

"Just tell Director Li that his juniors need help."

"Junior students?"

The security guards grew increasingly suspicious, scrutinizing Xu Yuan and his companions from head to toe.

He looked up the phone book with some skepticism and dialed the number.

"Hello?" came a puzzled middle-aged man's voice from the other end.

"Director Li, this is the security office. Someone here is looking for you. They say they are your juniors."

"Junior students?" The middle-aged man was taken aback, then seemed to understand where they were from, and said to the security guard, "Take good care of them, I'll be right there."

The security guard hung up the call, looked at Xu Yuan and the others, poured them a glass of water, and asked them to sit down.

Wu Siduo looked at Xu Yuan with surprise.

"Class monitor, is this Director Li an alumnus of our college?"

“That’s right. I did some research beforehand, and that’s one of the reasons we chose this place. As a senior, he should understand our assessment, so this exchange competition can most likely be arranged.”

Everyone gave the class monitor a thumbs up.

As expected of the class monitor, he's so thoughtful.

Not long after, a middle-aged man arrived and, upon seeing Xu Yuan and the others, glanced at the total number of people in surprise.

so many people.

Although the assessment conditions differed from what he knew, his approximate identity could be determined from the soul power aura displayed by Xu Yuan and the others.

Li Zhilong sized up Xu Yuan.

"Please come in with me."

He led Xu Yuan and the others inside, talking to Xu Yuan as they went.

"Aren't the first-year final exams at the academy only allowed to be completed individually?"

“Things have been a bit unsettled lately. We initially required students to work alone, but we discovered that evil spirit masters have been appearing recently, so each teacher has gathered their students together to complete the assessment.”

Li Zhilong nodded knowingly.

"Let's go. I understand your purpose. You want to challenge someone five levels higher, right? I can arrange that for you, but I won't prepare opponents five levels higher than you. I will arrange for you to fight against the strongest students under the age of twenty from our academy. Whether you win or not will depend on you. Their soul power level will definitely meet your requirements."

"Senior, three of us are Soul Masters. Are you sure any of the students in the academy meet the requirements?" Xu Yuan interrupted Li Zhilong.

“Three Soul Masters!” Li Zhilong was startled. He carefully sensed the soul power fluctuations of the thirteen people, his gaze sweeping over Xu Yuan, Wu Siduo, and Xu Yucheng.

"Could you three please tell me your specific soul power levels?"

"Xu Yucheng, Soul Power Level 44, Wu Siduo, Soul Power Level 44, and I, Xu Yuan, Soul Power Level 49," Xu Yuan introduced them one by one.

Upon hearing the soul power levels of the first two, Li Zhilong's eyes already showed a hint of surprise. When he heard Xu Yuan's soul power level, his expression changed drastically.

It's not just Li Zhilong.

Every time they heard about Xu Yuan's soul power level, the others were filled with awe and deep shock.

Xu Yuan's soul power level increased too quickly.

When school started, he was only at level 45, but now, half a year later, he has improved by four levels.

Of course, three of them seemed to have suddenly appeared overnight.

This left everyone bewildered and uncertain.

No one knows what happened to Xu Yuan at that time.

However, anyone who had contact with Xu Yuan could feel that after those few days, Xu Yuan truly gave off a different vibe.

"What about the others?" Li Zhilong remained silent for a long time before finally asking about the others' soul power levels.

Xu Yuan reported them one by one.

"You don't need to worry about their opponents, but for the three of you, I can help you find some."

Li Zhilong looked at Wu Siduo and the other person.

"You two should be challenging a Soul Master of level 49, right? The academy happens to have one who is 25 years old this year and about to graduate. His Soul Power has been stuck at level 49 for a year, so he can be your opponent."

"There's only one of him, so you need to allocate your time well and give him enough time to recover, so as not to affect your assessment progress."

"As for you, Xu Yuan, I can only find you a teacher, but the teachers in our academy have no obligation to communicate with each other."

Li Zhilong looked at Xu Yuan.

"I understand, senior. There's no such thing as a free lunch. If you help me find a teacher of a suitable level, I will reward that teacher."

Li Zhilong nodded, then looked at Xu Yuan strangely a few times.

Monitor?

Why are you so easy to talk to?

strangeness.

Although it seemed incredible that a reasonable person would appear in Shrek Academy and serve as the class monitor of such an outstanding class, Li Zhilong did not express his opinion.

As they spoke, they entered the teaching building.

The teaching building had no elevator; instead, it consisted entirely of spiral staircases leading upwards. Li Zhilong led Xu Yuan and the others up the stairs to the top floor, where they entered a huge domed building.

Upon entering the hall, one discovers that its roof is open-air, facing directly to the sky.

"This is the academy's observatory, and also an important training ground for actual combat. It has a diameter of 300 meters."

"This observatory is magnificent, and the angle for looking up at the starry sky is also perfect. I wonder if there is any special design?" Xu Yuan had already looked up, gazing at the starry sky through the open-air dome.

It was daytime, yet Xu Yuan could almost see the stars in the sky, as if he were witnessing some beautiful sight.

Li Zhilong smiled.

"Indeed, this observatory is not only a training ground for actual combat, but also an important training place for our academy. Only exceptionally outstanding disciples are allowed to train here at specific times."

"Cultivating here?" Wu Siduo asked in surprise.

She surveyed her surroundings and didn't find anything particularly special about them.

Why is it that even so, cultivation is only allowed at specific times and only by outstanding disciples?

Everyone else looked at Li Zhilong, their senior, waiting for his introduction.

At the same time, they all wondered if this was related to the opportunity the class monitor had mentioned.

Li Zhilong looked at the expectant expressions on the faces of his juniors and smiled helplessly.

"The Star Observatory is indeed quite peculiar, because it has a huge soul guidance array inscribed inside. Combined with the geographical location where our Star Observatory was built and many other factors, it was completed by a group of astronomers and soul masters working together."

"Whether it's day or night, once activated, it can bring us closer to space, allowing us to observe the stars more closely."

Li Zhilong explained that this is not just a visual expansion, but also an amplification of the perception of the starry sky. It is an all-round amplification, which is why it is said to bring us closer to space.

Because, apart from the fact that they don't move, the effect is exactly the same.

Of course, this is not the biggest advantage of the observatory.

Wu Siduo and the others looked at Li Zhilong expectantly, waiting for him to continue his explanation.

Chapter 176 The Origin of the Observatory (Please Subscribe!!!)

"The greatest benefit of this observatory is, of course, its use for cultivation."

Li Zhilong stopped keeping everyone in suspense and directly stated the observatory's greatest function.

"Once the large-scale soul-guiding array of the Star Gazing Platform is activated, it can draw the power of stars in space into the Star Gazing Platform, providing the purest energy to help our students cultivate."

"Because the Soul Guidance Array consumes a lot of energy to activate, only outstanding disciples are allowed to come here to cultivate at specific times. Most of the time, it is the graduate students who come here to temper themselves with the power of stars and their battle armor."

"Graduate program?" Xu Yuan caught a glimpse of an unfamiliar term.

Li Zhilong smiled and said, "Similar to Shrek Academy's inner court, our academy's graduate program is called a class, but it is actually the core of the academy, responsible for some of the academy's scientific research work and focusing on cultivation."

At present, no academy is a pure academy; they have all become, in fact, small forces in their own right.

Especially for academies like the Tianding Starry Sky Soul Master Academy, which is not small, the fact that an academy collaborates with the military and has its own unique products gives it its own independent status.
