Night, starlight dotted the sky.
On a small island somewhere in the Douluo II World.
At this moment, on this small island, which was about five li in circumference, two tents stood quietly. In one of the brightly lit tents, Shen Fan was rubbing a card of unknown material in his hand, lost in thought.
After a long while, he seemed to come back to his senses and said in his mind, "Diary System."
"The mission issued on this one-star mission card is for us to go to the first mission World of the Douluo Continent to prevent Tang San from winning the championship of the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Competition."
"But to participate in the Elite Competition, one needs to have the identity of an Advanced Spirit Master Academy student. How do I manage that?"
"I can't just temporarily set up an Advanced Spirit Master Academy or buy one, can I?"
Upon hearing this, the Diary System's voice immediately appeared in Shen Fan's mind.
"It's up to your choice."
"You can choose to join an Advanced Spirit Master Academy from the original work. You don't need to worry about identity information; the mission card will handle it automatically."
"Of course, Shrek Academy cannot be joined."
"If you don't want to join an academy from the original work, you can also choose to establish your own academy with eligibility to participate. The mission card will also handle that automatically."
After listening to the Diary System's explanation, Shen Fan replied without thinking, "That's really convenient. Then I'll choose to form my own academy. I'll just call it Dragon Fan Academy."
Shen Fan directly borrowed the name of the Longfan Team. He was about to confirm the roster one last time before starting the mission when he suddenly saw a question mark in the mission card's team member column, so small it was almost invisible.
"What is this?"
Shen Fan tapped on the question mark, and immediately, a surge of information was transmitted into his mind.
"Holy crap."
"I can even bring four additional substitute players?"
"Although I can only choose two of the four slots myself, the other two slots will be randomly assigned."
Shen Fan's eyes widened at first, but then he immediately felt fortunate.
"Good thing I was cautious and checked the slots carefully one last time, otherwise I would have missed out."
"Even if these four people don't play, just getting a participation award is good. No point in not taking it."
"This is different from the main players who could win a big prize but only get a participation award because they don't want to act."
[I'm being foolish again. I could think about things and plan in the diary, and earn points at the same time, killing two birds with one stone. How did I forget again?]
Douluo I Shui Yue'er Livestream: "What's wrong?"
"What else do you need to think about or plan?"
"You've been rubbing that mission card for ages, aren't you going to start it yet?"
[Now that there are two more substitute players I can choose, it seems Xiangxiang can join.]
Douluo Yi Bai Chenxiang Livestream: "Ah?"
[For the second one, I'll choose Ma Xiaotao.]
[After all, I've tasted her fragrance, and my relationship with her is somewhat closer than with other girls. As the saying goes, don't let good things fall into the hands of outsiders.]
Douluo Er Ma Xiaotao Livestream: "..."
[Alright, alright.]
[In the end, I couldn't avoid the Shrek Three Beauties. The remaining two random slots went to Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.]
Douluo I Ning Rongrong Livestream: "Is there really that much disdain?"
Douluo I Zhu Zhuyun Livestream: "Congratulations, little sister."
"You also got a spot."
Douluo I Zhu Zhuqing Livestream: "Mm, I'll fight the Zhu Zhuqing in the mission World myself."
Douluo I Shui Yue'er Livestream: "Fighting herself, she's a ruthless one."
"But I really envy you all, being able to wander in another World. Although this so-called other World is also from the Douluo I era, it can still be considered a World-crossing experience."
Xiao Wu Livestream: "This mission World should develop according to the original Douluo Continent novel. This time, I want to see if my Yearning Heartbroken Red truly fell by coincidence, or if Tang San was behind it."
Douluo 3-4 Xiao Wu Livestream: "..."
[Forget it, forget it.]
[Can those two really be more troublesome than Xiao Wu, that rabbit spirit?]
Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing Livestream: "..."
[Let's begin.]
[Start mission.]
As Shen Fan officially decided to start the mission, the one-star mission card in his hand instantly turned into a wisp of ash and disappeared. Then, an emotionless mechanical voice sounded in Shen Fan's ear: "Please select a faction."
"I'll form my own academy, named Dragon Fan."
Shen Fan said.
"Faction selection: self-built academy, named Dragon Fan."
"Recorded."
"..."
After a one-second pause, the emotionless voice sounded again.
"Self-selected main team members: Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Jiang Zhu, Shui Binger, and Jiang Nannan."
"Self-selected substitute team members: Bai Chenxiang and Ma Xiaotao."
"Faction: Dragon Fan Academy."
"Please make a final confirmation."
"After this confirmation, the mission will begin immediately, and no information will be supported for modification."
There was nothing to hesitate about. Shen Fan immediately said, "Confirm."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Fan's surroundings were suddenly enveloped by a white light. When he could see his surroundings clearly again, he found himself in an uninhabited corner of a certain city, with fifteen beauties, one large and fourteen small, lying beside him.
"Uh?"
"What's going on?"
"Why are they all unconscious?"
Shen Fan blinked in confusion.
"They are receiving all information related to this mission."
"They will wake up once they have finished receiving the information."
The Diary System explained.
"So that's how it is."
Shen Fan understood. Indeed, a piece of information had been transmitted into his mind earlier, but he didn't know if it was because he was too strong or if he received special treatment, but he hadn't fainted.
Just as the Diary System and Shen Fan were conversing, Bibi Dong, the strongest of the fifteen, let out a soft groan, and her eyelids fluttered.
Seeing this, Shen Fan quickly lay down, mimicking the girls, before Bibi Dong fully woke up. A few seconds later, Shen Fan felt the awakened Bibi Dong come to his side and stare intently at him.
"Why is Bibi Dong staring at me like this?"
"Hmm?"
"Wait."
"Why is she still dressed the same way as when I left last time?"
"Did she not return to Spirit Hall?"
With doubts in his heart, Shen Fan pretended to have finished receiving the information and slowly opened his eyes.
"You're awake?"
Bibi Dong looked down at Shen Fan, her voice cold.
"You... you're that Lin Yu we met in Yelin City?"
"No."
"The fact that you can stand here means you're also one of the mission personnel, but according to the prompt in my mind, there's no one named Lin Yu among us."
"Who exactly are you?"
