Chapter 76: Preparing for the Competition

Chapter 76: Preparing for the Competition

Although Wang Si's residence was in the backyard of the college, Dai Mubai still sensed the fluctuations of Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Fusion skill.

Even though Dai Mubai had no feelings for his fiancee, he was displeased that she dared to use a Soul Fusion skill with another Soul Master while he, her fiance, was still present.

What annoyed Dai Mubai even more was that he hadn't left yet, so he was unable to see what was happening. Her actions were undoubtedly putting him in a difficult position.

He immediately reported the situation to Flender, wanting him to help clear his name.

Hearing Dai Mubai's reasonable request, Flender agreed without hesitation.

Why did he agree so readily? The main reason was Yu Xiaogang. He had lost the most important asset for a man.

The methods used by Tianwu Academy to humiliate people were despicable! He had to go and teach them a lesson.

However, Flender was not officially a teacher at the academy and did not have the qualifications to enter the inner court to find the dean.

If they wanted to confront Wang Si, they first had to become teachers at Tianwu Academy.

And for the students to seek justice from the dean, they must become inner court students.

To improve their status, they must fight! This was the rule of Tianwu Academy. If anyone could reason with the dean, then his position would not be worth much.

The last person who dared to ignore the rules of Tianwu Academy had paid a heavy price.

None of the Shrek students dared to violate the academy's rules again. After all, there were a lot of gold-eating mice in the dungeon, and they certainly didn't want any in their beds while they slept.

It was common knowledge that the jaws of the gold-eating mice could easily bite through steel.

Wang Si, of course, was clear about the situation in the outer court, but he didn't care.

As long as he maintained a polite attitude in front of the Shrek students and teachers, that was enough. Did he really want them to join?

If he didn't give them some benefits and paint them a rosy picture, how could he make them feel superior?

And if they didn't feel superior, how could they fall harder?

Zhu Zhuqing's body recovered quickly under Wang Si's care, as he nourished her with precious resources. Zhu Zhuqing was delighted with her progress.

However, Zhu Xie, who often came to practice Soul Fusion skills with Zhu Zhuqing, was unhappy.

As the leader of the Soul Fusion skill, she was responsible for fighting and taking hits.

Nevertheless, Zhu Zhuqing wasn't entirely useless. At the very least, she could control the Ice and Fire Evil Tiger's wings to fly.

But Wang Si could also fly, and he flew more stably than Zhu Zhuqing, with stronger combat power in the air.

It seemed that Zhu Zhuqing wasn't of much use after all.

......

Time passed quickly.

Tianwu Academy had recently become very lively due to the upcoming Soul Master competitions that would be held at the academy.

The participants and quotas had already been decided.

First was the competition for the Shrek students: according to the rules, if they wanted to join the inner court of Tianwu Academy, they had to challenge a few students who had just entered the inner court.

If they won, they could join the inner court. If they lost, they would have to wait until next year.

Three Shrek students would participate: Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Oscar.

Tang San - Control System Soul Ancestor, Bluesilver Grass.

Dai Mubai - Strong Attack System Soul Ancestor, Evil Eye White Tiger.

Oscar - Food System Soul Ancestor, Sausage.

Control, strong attack, and auxiliary—they formed a standard trio.

Tianwu Academy also sent three Soul Masters, two of whom were familiar to the Shrek crowd, while the third was unknown to them.

A Lan - Control System Soul Ancestor, Bluesilver King.

Zhu Zhuqing - Agile Attack System Soul Ancestor, Ghost Shadow Evil Cat.

Ning Rongrong - Auxiliary System Great Soul Master, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

Shrek Academy fielded a luxurious lineup of all four of their teachers.

Agile-Attack System Soul Saint, Four-Eyed Cat Eagle Flender.

Strong-Attack System Soul Saint, Mighty Golden Bear Zhao Wuji.

Food System Soul Saint, Sugar Bean Shao Xin.

With their agile-attack, warrior, and food system support Soul Masters, and all of them Soul Saints!!!

As for the sauce-stirring Master, no one paid any attention to him.

Tianwu Academy also dispatched four individuals.

Auxiliary System Soul Emperor, Seven Stringed Divine Lyre Tang Yuhuan.

Strong-Attack System Soul Emperor, Earth Rhino Huli Zhuo.

Strong-Attack System Soul Emperor, Indestructible Black Bear Liu Jianchuan.

Agile-Attack System Soul Saint, Iron Wing Black Eagle Xue Yueshang.

Tianwu Academy's Agile-Attack System Soul Saint was not a teacher in the outer court, but what could they do when Shrek Academy's trio of Soul Saints was so unruly? Even if they brought out an Iron Wing Black Eagle to restrict Flender, it would still be two Soul Saints against three Soul Emperors on the battlefield.

There would only be two matches, with no singles competition or a best-of-three format.

The news sent shockwaves through the student body of both colleges.

This would be a battle between Soul Saints!

They would have the opportunity to witness the might of Soul Saints firsthand.

Even before the competition began, the anticipation for this match had already exceeded everyone's expectations.

Sensing a business opportunity, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect wasted no time in involving themselves, preparing to make a hefty profit!

In the outer court, Master had gathered everyone together to discuss their battle strategy.

"The Ghost Shadow Evil Cat excels in speed, but its strength and defense are not its strong suits.

In battle, she will undoubtedly target Oscar first. In terms of speed, the Evil Eye White Tiger won't be able to keep up with the Ghost Shadow Evil Cat.

So, protecting Oscar won't be of much use. Little San has exceptional dynamic observation abilities. We can directly tie a strand of Bluesilver Grass around Oscar's waist, and that should resolve the issue."

Dai Mubai shared the intelligence he had gathered with the group.

Hearing that he would be the first target, Oscar felt speechless. It seemed that they were being targeted because they were support-type Soul Masters with limited combat abilities.

However, Oscar wasn't too worried. He immediately summoned his martial soul and displayed his third soul ring to the group.

"My third soul skill is Snake Meat Sausage, which greatly enhances the speed of anyone who consumes it.

Back when we obtained our soul rings together, Little San ate my big sausage and was able to chase after Little Dance.

Little San, how would you rate the speed boost from my third soul skill's sausage?"

Tang San nodded slightly, then turned to the others.

Oscar could only describe his third soul skill as "very powerful," but Tang San was able to professionally analyze the specific enhancements that Oscar's third soul skill provided.

After all, the effects of food-type martial souls weren't instantaneous and went through a "digestion" process.

Dai Mubai hadn't been present at the time, but he was curious when he heard Tang San's professional analysis.

"What's Zhu Zhuqing's third soul skill? If I knew what it was, I could come up with a perfect countermeasure."

When it came to Zhu Zhuqing's third soul skill, Tang San could only shake his head.

"Zhu Zhuqing hasn't demonstrated her third soul skill in front of us, but I saw her take down a Shadow Leopard.

I'm not sure what skill she acquired."

Hearing about the Shadow Leopard, a soul beast, Dai Mubai stroked his chin thoughtfully.

"According to the Dai and Zhu families' research on soul beasts, her third soul skill is most likely Stealth."
