Chapter 32 Where are you going?
The soul fighting area of Shrek Academy is just behind the soul fighting department teaching building. Soul masters often come here to compete with each other. Of course, more and more soul guides have come here in recent times. From time to time, you can see the lights of soul guides on the surrounding arenas.
“No more fighting.” Ma Xiaotao landed on an arena in the fighting spirit area and waved in the air.
Upon hearing this, Wang Nan controlled the soul guide and landed steadily on the edge of the arena.
"Your soul guide is really cheating. It obviously doesn't have a flying martial spirit, but it is more flexible than me in the air. I can't beat you anymore."
"Don't you inner court disciples have soul guides?"
"Yes, but I can't use it." Ma Xiaotao complained, "General soul guides can't bear my soul power at all. Basically, they will be burned after a few uses."
Wang Nan is now in the third grade, and it has been a whole year since he and Ma Xiaotao obtained the third spirit ring. During this year, Ma Xiaotao has come to him many times, and with his help, the evil spirit in her body has been dispelled a lot, her martial spirit has become purer, and the temperature of the flames she releases is getting higher and higher.
It is no wonder that there is no suitable soul guide for a martial soul that is close to the ultimate fire.
"Okay, after this fight, I will set out to get the fourth spirit ring tomorrow."
Hearing this, Wang Nan looked at Ma Xiaotao in surprise.
"How about it, isn't it awesome?" Ma Xiaotao showed a proud smile.
It’s really amazing. Is this the quality of Shrek’s number one genius?
Wang Nan and Ma Xiaotao obtained their third soul ring together. After a year of practice, Wang Nan's soul power increased from level 33 to level 38, which was pretty good compared to other students, but there was still a big gap compared to Ma Xiaotao.
With Wang Nan's help, Ma Xiaotao no longer had to worry about her cultivation. In the same period of time, her soul power broke through from level 32 to level 40. Wang Nan didn't know what Ma Xiaotao's innate soul power was, but even if it wasn't her innate full soul power, it was probably not far off.
"By the way, did you know that there will be a core disciple selection competition in the outer courtyard in a few days?" After resting for a while, Ma Xiaotao said mysteriously.
Wang Nan thought about it and felt that he probably didn’t know it yet, so he shook his head slightly.
"Hehe, it's not a secret anymore. You should know about the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, right? This competition is held every five years, and all participating contestants must be under 20 years old."
"Our academy will send seven regular players and seven reserve players to participate in each competition. This selection is to select the reserve players for the Fighting Spirit Competition. You must prepare well by then."
Seeing Wang Nan's flat reaction, Ma Xiaotao suddenly changed the subject, "And I heard that if you can win the Soul Fighting Competition, the academy will have generous rewards. There was a senior sister in the inner courtyard who won a soul bone by participating in the Soul Fighting Competition."
After spending a year with Wang Nan, Ma Xiaotao had roughly figured out what he was interested in.
"Well, I'll try my best then."
"You'll definitely pass if you work hard."
"Not always."
Wang Nan knew clearly that the selection method was a big free-for-all, and with so many people fighting, no one could guarantee advancement, so he just had to do his best.
"By the way, aren't you participating in the tryouts?"
Wang Nan asked curiously. Originally, Ma Xiaotao was not a reserve player because she was troubled by the evil fire. Later, after the evil fire was suppressed, she was directly selected as a regular player, which once caused dissatisfaction from Dai Yuheng.
Now that her evil fire is under control, she should be able to participate in the selection. Ma Xiaotao moved closer, and when she saw that no one was paying attention to them, she lowered her voice and said, "The inner courtyard disciples who meet the requirements can be directly selected as reserve contestants, and the teacher said that a soul mentor will be added to the reserve contestants this time, so it is estimated that only five disciples will be selected from the outer courtyard."
Wang Nan understood.
It turns out that geniuses always have privileges no matter when.
……
As expected of the information obtained from the Dean of the Martial Soul Department, what Ma Xiaotao said soon came true.
A few days later, all the core disciples in grades three and four who were under the age of fifteen gathered in the Fighting Spirit Area.
In previous trials, there were some fifth-grade students who met the requirements and participated, but this year's fifth-grade students might have started school too late, with the youngest being fifteen years old, and therefore did not meet the requirements.
When all the core disciples arrived, Xuanzi, who had led Wang Nan on a supervisory mission, staggered in, still looking sloppy.
In addition to Wang Nan, there were several core disciples who also participated in the monitoring mission. After seeing Xuanzi, they quickly straightened their postures and stood upright.
With these people setting an example, the other core disciples, although confused in their hearts, did not dare to say anything.
Xuan Zi nodded slightly, "Okay, you all should know that you are called here to participate in the core disciple selection competition. Next, I will tell you about the content of the selection competition."
Hearing Xuanzi's words, the core disciples pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
"The assessment is called a mass brawl. It will be held in the fighting spirit area. You can attack as you please and fight however you want. There are no rules. If you surrender or are rescued, you will be eliminated. The last five people left will be the winners. Be prepared."
As Ma Xiaotao said, only five reserve members will be selected this time.
"Ready, burp, go!"
Group fighting is common in the inner courtyard, but it is the first time for the outer courtyard disciples. For a moment, they were a little confused and didn't know where to start.
Wang Nan didn't want to take the initiative and attract other people's attention, so he frowned and quietly stepped aside.
Faced with unfamiliar rules, they might be stunned for a few seconds at first because they are not quite used to it, but those present were all core disciples, and soon someone reacted. I don’t know who started it, but for a moment, all kinds of lights kept flashing in the entire fighting spirit area, and yellow and purple spirit rings rose one after another.
However, the first one to attack was not a soul master, but a large area of soul light rays.
Before they came into contact with soul guides, students of the Martial Soul Department scoffed at them. However, since the academy arranged courses related to soul guides, some of them have discovered the benefits of this kind of thing.
There is no need to risk one's life, just stand at a distance to launch an attack. Especially in this kind of multi-person melee, once someone rushes to the center, he will face attacks from all directions. No matter how strong he is, he can't withstand the siege of dozens of people.
In this case, soul guide becomes the top priority.
Looking at the light of the soul guide constantly emitting from the fighting spirit area, even Xuan Zi, who was watching the fight on the side, stopped what he was doing, wiped his mouth and looked intently at the arena.
He had lived for a long time and had presided over countless core disciple selection competitions, but this was the first time he had seen such a scene.
