Chapter 153 The main selection team and the reserve team
Xu Zihuang himself did not know about this Poseidon Pavilion meeting held specifically for him.
Even since the end of the core disciple selection competition, the results seemed to be nothing.
Afterwards, the study and life of the core disciples of the Outer Academy in Shrek Academy became peaceful again.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a week passed.
The stars are dotted like bright gems, densely filling the vast night sky. Under the intertwining of moonlight and starlight, much of the darkness of the night is dispelled.
Shrek City, located in the middle of the mainland, seems to be so magnificent at night all year round. It is like a city of stars standing in the clouds.
Compared with the bustling and noisy inner city of Shrek, Shrek Academy located inside the east gate of Shrek City seems much quieter.
It was late at night, and the starlight crossed the window edge and fell on Xu Zihuang's exquisite and flawless face. His bright golden eyes were densely covered with gold lines, and his attention was completely focused on the walnut-sized blue-gold gem in his hand.
This is a rare metal called crystal silver, which is most suitable for engraving the core array.
The carving knife held tightly in Xu Zihuang's right hand was stirred slightly but forcefully. As the metal shards fell, a complex and mysterious core array was gradually carved and formed. The whole process was smooth and smooth, without any pause.
About a quarter of an hour later, Xu Zihuang stopped what he was doing, and then slowly poured soul power into it. A straight and extremely solid crystal blue halo suddenly shot out from it without any wavering.
This also means that this core array is truly engraved with success.
If Fan Yu were here, he would probably have to refresh his knowledge again. At only twelve years old, he could successfully engrave the fourth-level core magic circle. This is a bit too shocking.
The complexity of the fourth-level core array is at least dozens of times that of the third-level core array. Even if he inscribed it himself, he probably wouldn't be able to achieve such perfection.
The engraving of the core array is not error-free, but the smaller the error, the more durable it will be.
Undoubtedly, the four-level core array inscribed by Xu Zihuang is the best among the best. If it is sold in the market, it will definitely cause competition among many merchants.
It’s hard to make a conclusion as to which one is better between a soul master and a soul mentor, but the soul master’s ability to attract money is far beyond what a soul master can match. Especially a soul master of level four or above, a casually made
When the soul guide is sold, excluding the cost of using rare metals, at least thousands of gold soul coins will be made.
And being able to inscribe such a perfect fourth-level core magic circle, Xu Zihuang can naturally be called a genuine fourth-level soul master.
Moreover, there are four other four-level core formations like this on the table. However, the types of rare metals used to engrave these four core formations are all different.
To engrave different types of core arrays, you need to choose the most suitable rare metal. Only in this way can you get twice the result with half the effort.
"As expected." Xu Zihuang murmured softly.
After the qualitative change in his mental power, his control over his own soul power and strength became even more subtle. This also allowed him to engrave the core magic circle more easily.
The quality of his soul power is far better than that of ordinary soul masters. Perhaps even if he tries to inscribe the fifth-level core formation, he has a high chance of success.
However, he has no intention of trying to engrave the fifth-level core array now. In fact, he is inscribing these four-level core arrays just to upgrade the core array in the short-blade whale tooth that he made with his own hands.
From the time of design and production, Xu Zihuang was ready to replace the core array inside the short-bladed whale tooth at any time.
The main body of the short-blade whale tooth was made by polishing the sharp teeth of the ten-thousand-year-old evil killer whale. He even had Wang Yao, an eighth-level soul master, optimize it. Its toughness is enough to withstand the sixth level.
The soul power impact of the core array.
In other words, this short-blade whale tooth can at least be upgraded to a sixth-level soul guide by replacing the core array.
With a flash of light, Xu Zihuang took out the short-blade whale tooth that had not been used for a long time from the soul guide. The back of the knife as black as ink and the silver-white as snow blade were in sharp contrast, and the small T-shaped red pattern on the blade was like
The demonic patterns on the body of the evil killer whale are the same, adding a bit of ominous power out of thin air.
The length of the blade is nearly two feet, and it shines coldly under the soft soul-guided light.
Skillfully removed and replaced, the entire process was completed within five minutes.
Xu Zihuang's right hand held the handle of the knife that fit perfectly. The golden soul power rose from the palm of his hand and was quickly transmitted to the inside of the short-blade whale tooth. In an instant, violent purple electric light lingered on the blade, which was as black as ink.
The back of the knife also turned into a crystal clear deep purple at this time.
Compared with before, the power has been significantly improved.
Satisfied, he put the short-blade whale tooth back into the storage soul guide, stretched his body a little, then sat on his bed and started tonight's practice.
Poseidon Island Lakeside.
The lake water washed against the shore wave after wave, making a crisp slapping sound.
Another wave of waves came, submerging large pebbles on the shore. The clear lake water flowed back through the gaps between the pebbles, and waves of splashing were heard one after another.
Yan Shaozhe, dressed in white, stood quietly on the shore.
Not far behind him, Ma Xiaotao, who was wearing a red dress and had an extremely proud figure, walked quickly towards Yan Shaozhe.
Compared with her hot figure, the expression on her pretty face is very cold. At first glance, she looks like a cold beauty with a huge sense of contrast. But in fact, her temper is not as hot as her figure.
gave in.
"Teacher, are you looking for me?" Ma Xiaotao stood behind Yan Shaozhe and asked softly.
Yan Shaozhe turned around, met Ma Xiaotao's eyes, and said seriously.
"Xiao Tao, Yu Tianhuang are twin martial spirits."
Ma Xiaotao had a look of astonishment on her face, one of which was naturally because of the fact that Yu Tianhuang was a twin martial spirit.
In the history of the existence of soul masters, no matter what era it is, twin martial souls are the symbol of top geniuses.
The second reason is that she doesn't understand why her teacher deliberately told her this matter.
Is it to persuade myself again?
Thinking of this, Ma Xiaotao didn't know why she suddenly recalled the scene when she fell into the lake that day. It was also a starry night.
Recalling this, she felt her cheeks getting hot.
But before she could feel shy, Yan Shaozhe's sad voice sounded again.
"His second martial soul has the attribute of ultimate thunder. Thunder is originally transformed from the righteousness of heaven and earth, and Yu Tianhuang's ultimate thunder is the nemesis of all evil. If you can combine with him, the essence of the martial soul will be
The evil energy will definitely be completely purified. From then on, you can truly get rid of the trouble of evil fire and become a true fire phoenix."
"Teacher--" Ma Xiaotao's pretty face was stained with two clusters of blush, she squeaked, her eyes were a little evasive, and she was at a loss what to do.
Yan Shaozhe's words were really too explicit. Although she usually looks very tough, she is still an untouched girl.
Feeling shy and stubborn, she quickly shook her head.
"Teacher, I don't want to marry someone I don't like just because of my martial soul."
It's just that even she didn't realize that the words she said were a little less firm than before.
Yan Shaozhe sighed: "The problem is, if the problem of evil fire is not completely solved, it will continue to cause load and impact on your body."
Ma Xiaotao snorted.
"Isn't Yu Tianhuang's number one soul skill able to temporarily suppress my evil fire? Can't I just look for him when I need it in the future?"
"Yu Tianhuang's first soul skill can only help you suppress him for seven days at most, Xiaotao, are you prepared to be tied to him for the rest of your life?" Yan Shaozhe's voice became a little more sulky.
"What if he decides to leave the academy in the future? Do you have to leave with him?"
When Ma Xiaotao saw that Yan Shaozhe was angry, she immediately became honest and said aggrievedly: "Teacher, but I..."
Yan Shaozhe interrupted Ma Xiaotao with a wave of his hand, and his tone softened a lot.
"Silly girl, the teacher is not forcing you. If you were not troubled by the evil fire, your talent should be able to soar into the sky. It will not be difficult for you to surpass me in future achievements. The teacher is thinking about you. Okay,
You go back and rest first."
"Um."
Ma Xiaotao responded obediently and left here with a complicated expression.
Yan Shaozhe turned around again and faced the vast Poseidon Lake, a faint smile flashed deep in his eyes.
By this, he seemed to notice something and looked in the direction to his side.
Standing there was a capable woman in her fifties with long black hair neatly tied up. It was Xian Lin'er, the dean of the Soul Guidance Department who had appeared at the Poseidon Pavilion meeting earlier.
Xian Lin'er stared at Yan Shaozhe coldly and said coldly.
"Yan Shaozhe, you are still as virtuous as you were when you were young. In order to tie up this kid Yu Tianhuang, you even plotted against your direct disciple. I really feel for that girl Xiaotao."
Yan Shaozhe's expression suddenly changed.
Xian Lin'er's words touched some of his thoughts. Moreover, he had let others down when he was young.
However, he was not as unbearable as Xian Lin'er said. His starting point at the beginning was indeed for the sake of Ma Xiaotao's future, and tying Yu Tianhuang and Shrek Academy to death was the second best.
Looking at Xian Lin'er, Yan Shaozhe couldn't help but frown.
"Lin'er..."
However, Xian Liner ignored Yan Shaozhe. He rose into the sky and disappeared in the next moment.
Yan Shaozhe glanced far away in the direction of the soul guidance system and sighed softly.
…
The soft sunlight scatters into the classroom of Class 1, Grade 2. It is early spring, and when the sunlight touches the skin, it does not feel that burning, but it is indescribably comfortable.
Xu Zihuang leaned against the window, his mind already empty.
Five days have passed since the selection competition for the core disciples of the outer courtyard. Logically speaking, the candidates for the reserve team should have been announced long ago.
Of course, he wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to make the reserve team, he just felt a little strange about it.
Wang Yan, who was lecturing behind the podium, noticed Xu Zihuang who was distracted and did not say anything to wake him up.
Any college will give preferential treatment to outstanding students. And every time he asked Yu Tianhuang questions, Yu Tianhuang could answer them fluently.
Wang Yan is not that kind of rigid teacher. Since Yu Tianhuang is familiar with the contents of the textbook, he simply turns a blind eye.
On the contrary, many female students in the class were attracted by Xu Zihuang, who was bathed in the sun and looked extraordinary.
The afternoon class ended soon.
"get out of class is over."
When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Wang Yan first announced, and then waved to Yu Tianhuang and Wang Dong.
"Yu Tianhuang, Wang Dong, you two will stay here for a while."
Everyone in the first class of the second grade glanced at the two of them suspiciously. Especially the core disciples Dai Huabin, Zhou Sichen, and Cao Jinxuan, who had vaguely guessed something.
Not only them, but also Wang Dong himself was surprised.
Not long after, everyone in the class left one after another. Wang Yan came to the two of them and said with a smile: "Follow me."
After the teacher from Class 1, Grade 2, Ning Tian from Class 3, Grade 2, also came over under the leadership of his class teacher.
"Teacher Wang, I leave it to you."
The head teacher of Grade 2 Class 3 said as he motioned for Ning Tian to follow Wang Yan.
"Teacher Chen, you're welcome." Wang Yan nodded with a smile, and immediately led everyone towards the assessment area.
Ning Tian showed an elegant smile towards Xu Zihuang and stood on the other side of Xu Zihuang.
Wang Dong curled his lips and turned his head to one side, looking very disdainful.
When the four of them just walked into the assessment area, Xu Zihuang unexpectedly saw some unfamiliar faces.
Mr. Xuan had arrived a long time ago. On his left and right sides, there were two groups of people standing.
Standing on the left are Beibei, He Caitou, Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan. Among the seven people standing on the other side, Ma Xiaotao is the only one Xu Zihuang is familiar with.
Today, Ma Xiaotao had her fiery red hair neatly combed into a ponytail, looking clean and tidy. Seeing Xu Zihuang, she couldn't help but recall what happened when she fell into the lake that day and what Yan Shaozhe said last night.
He felt a little ashamed, but he looked at Xu Zihuang openly.
Like Ma Xiaotao, the other six people around her were all wearing blood-red school uniforms that symbolized the status of the inner courtyard.
In addition to Ma Xiaotao, there were six other inner court disciples, a total of four men and two women. When Beibei and Xu Sanshi looked at the red-clothed inner court disciples, their eyes showed admiration and admiration.
Xu Zihuang seemed very calm, and came to Beibei and the others together with Ning Tian and Wang Dong.
Wang Yan, on the other hand, stood respectfully behind Mr. Xuan.
"Mr. Xuan, everyone is here."
Mr. Xuan nodded and faced Xu Zihuang and the other seven.
"I think you have all guessed the reason why I asked you to come here. You have heard of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition."
Xu Sanshi couldn't help but said in surprise: "Mr.
"I ask you to go, do you have what it takes? The age limit for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is soul masters under the age of twenty. This time you are participating as a reserve team and following the main players to watch the competition.
"Mr. Xuan snorted coldly.
"You are selected, one as a reserve team, and the other as a substitute for the main players. It will be an extremely valuable experience for you to participate in the game with the main players."
"Although you are now a reserve team, it does not mean that in five years, you will all become regular members to participate in the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition. In the next five years, you will
Everyone will be scrutinized, and only those with sufficient strength can finally represent the academy."
"The new Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition will be held in Xingluo City in ten days. I want you to meet today so that you can get familiar with each other and understand each other's abilities. If there are no special circumstances
If so, you will almost all have a chance to play. When the opponents we encounter are not too strong, we need you to show up to cover up the abilities of the main players. You all should correct your mentality and follow orders. Do you understand?
"
"Understood." Everyone responded in unison.
At the same time, Xu Zihuang glanced at Wang Dong out of the corner of his eye. Wang Dong had twin martial souls and a Soul Master level cultivation, so it was reasonable for him to be selected as a reserve team.
Mr. Xuan didn't say any more nonsense.
"Okay, you all should introduce yourselves first and get to know each other. Beibei, your reserve team will come first."
"Yes, Mr. Xuan." Beibei responded respectfully, and then took a step forward.
"My name is Beibei, a fifth-year student from the outer college. I am a member of the 42nd Level Assault System Fighting Soul Sect."
The second person to step forward was Xu Sanshi.
"My name is Xu Sanshi, a sixth-year student from the outer academy, a level 43 attack-type Fighting Soul Sect."
In terms of soul power cultivation, he has always been better than Beibei.
The third one was He Caitou. He Caitou touched his bald head honestly.
"My name is He Caitou, a fourth-year student from the Soul Guidance Department and a fourth-level soul engineer."
As a soul master, he generally does not reveal his specific soul power level, but rather shows his abilities based on his soul master level.
Next is Jiang Nannan.
"My name is Jiang Nannan. I am a member of the 41st level Agility Attack Department of the War Soul Sect. I am in the sixth grade of the outer courtyard."
Seeing Jiang Nannan's stunning face, the eyes of several male students in the inner courtyard suddenly lit up.
Among the female students present, Ma Xiaotao has the best figure. Although Ning Tian is tall, she is still young and has not yet shown the beauty of an adult woman. But Jiang Nannan is different. At only fifteen years old, she is relatively tall.
Between maturity and youth, this hazy sense of taboo is extremely attractive.
Xu Sanshi stared nervously at the seniors of the inner college across from him. Facing these three guys, Cao Jinxuan, Zhou Sichen, and Tuoba Yu, he could still convince people with his virtue, but in front of these seniors of the inner college,
His strength is really a bit underwhelming.
It was Wang Dong's turn for the fifth time. He puffed up his small chest proudly.
"Wang Dong, second grader from the outer college, thirty-level assault type war soul master."
Although he was a little surprised at first that he was selected into the reserve team, he was relieved when he remembered that he was a genius with twin martial arts souls.
He even thought secretly in his heart.
"Shrek Academy is quite discerning."
This disguised recognition made him feel proud.
After Wang Dong came Ning Tian. Ning Tian moved his fair and slender legs calmly, took a few steps forward, and smiled.
"Ning Tian, second grader from the outer courtyard, thirty-fifth level auxiliary weapon soul master."
Another second year from the outer courtyard? The faces of the inner courtyard disciples became a little strange, but after hearing about Ning Tian's soul power cultivation, they became much more restrained than when Wang Dong introduced himself.
The auxiliary department has always been the most difficult to cultivate. Ning Tian, who is in the second year of the outer academy, is only twelve years old. Being able to cultivate to the thirty-fifth level of soul power is definitely considered an outstanding existence. This will almost certainly make him able to enter the inner courtyard.
Of the hospital.
Under the gaze of everyone, Xu Zihuang also took a step forward, his eyes gentle and calm.
"Yu Tianhuang. Second year in the outer courtyard, forty-level control system fighting soul sect."
Second grade in the outer courtyard? Forty-second grade?!
Except for Ma Xiaotao, all the disciples in the inner courtyard were full of questions. If it hadn't been for Mr. Xuan being here, they would have been eager to ask questions.
The soul power of the second grader in the outer courtyard has been cultivated to level 42. This speed of cultivation is simply unbelievable.
While their thoughts were racing, Ma Xiaotao also walked out.
"Inner Courtyard, Ma Xiaotao. The sixty-eighth level assault type fighting soul emperor."
Yes, it was level 68. When Xu Zihuang helped her resolve the problem of evil fire in her body for the first time, she took advantage of this opportunity to break through the bottleneck of level 68.
Xu Zihuang, Xu Sanshi and Beibei, who were familiar with Ma Xiaotao, were fine, but Jiang Nannan, He Caitou, Ning Tian and Wang Dong were all horrified.
Even Wang Dong put away some of the arrogance on his face.
Being able to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition means that you are no more than twenty years old. Before you turn twenty, your soul power has reached level 68.
Even Wang Dong, who had twin martial souls, didn't think he could do this before he turned twenty. Unless he desperately attached a soul ring to the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul in advance.
This can no longer be simply described with the word horror.
Following Ma Xiaotao was a very tall young man. His long golden hair was spread over his broad shoulders. His breath was calm and his eyes were like daggers.
"Inner Courtyard, Dai Yueheng, Level 64 Assault System Soul Emperor."
After Dai Yaoheng, there is another male student. Although his figure is not as strong as Dai Yaoheng, his figure is very slender. Just standing there is like a sharp blade, giving people an extremely
He felt sharp. But his face was very kind, with a languid smile.
"Inner Court, Chen Zifeng. The fifty-seventh level assault type battle soul king."
Although it is not as shocking as when the two soul emperors Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng appeared. But being able to stand out from the inner courtyard disciples who gathered the younger generation of talented soul masters in the mainland is enough to show his excellence.
At the age of nineteen, he has level 57 soul power. In other high-level soul master academies, he can definitely become a captain-level figure. It is only because he is in Shrek Academy, where there are many geniuses, that his talent is concealed.
Some light.
The fourth person who introduced herself was a female student with short hair. Her appearance looked very ordinary, and even her voice was surprisingly ordinary.
"Inner courtyard, Xixi. The fifty-sixth level agility attack type war spirit king." She seemed to be in a daze. The introduction was also concise, but it was difficult to leave an impression on everyone.
But Xu Zihuang knows very well that Xixi's performance is the essence of the agility attack system soul master. What the agility attack system is good at is reconnaissance and assassination. Only by allowing yourself to escape into the ordinary can you function better.
The fifth person who came forward was still a female student. But compared to Xixi, she was much more beautiful.
Different from Ma Xiaotao's hotness and Jiang Nannan's gentleness, she is a kind of cold beauty. Her skin is as white as snow, she has ice-blue medium-long hair, and her cold face and temperament leave a deep impression on people.
Impression: The slender waist is twisted, and it looks like falling snowflakes when walking, without any texture.
"Inner Courtyard, Ling Luochen. Level 55 Control System War Soul King."
The sixth person is a thin male student who looks extremely wretched. He is only about 1.6 meters tall, has a slender figure, but has a pair of bright eyes. It is easy to think of an animal called a squirrel.
"Inner courtyard, Yao Haoxuan. Level 55, auxiliary control system war soul king."
Although the last inner court disciple is a male student, his appearance is extremely beautiful. His face is as beautiful as jade, which makes me feel pity for him.
He spoke in a soft voice, "Inner Courtyard, Gong Yangmo, fifty-ninth level auxiliary fighting soul king."
As an auxiliary soul master, his cultivation level is actually only lower than the two soul emperors, Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng.
However, his eyes kept falling on Xu Zihuang, and his hot and slightly shy eyes were the same as those female students looked at Xu Zihuang.
Xu Zihuang felt a chill when he saw it. As a spiritual soul master, his perception was extremely sharp. He could sense Gongyang Mo's strong 'interest' in him.
Mr. Xuan nodded slightly.
"Okay, you have all got to know each other briefly. In order to deepen your impression of each other, let's have a friendly match between you."
After pondering for a moment, Mr. Xuan pointed at Ma Xiaotao and Gongyang Mo.
"Let's do this. Xiaotao, you and Gong Yang can't get along. Let's have a team spirit battle between the remaining five regular players and the reserve team."
Before Ma Xiaotao and Gong Yangmo said anything, Chen Zifeng couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Xuan, are you sure?"
In his view, the gap in strength between their main roster and reserve team cannot be made up by numbers.
Even in a five-on-seven matchup, the reserve team has no chance at all. It will definitely be a defeat in all aspects.
"Don't you understand what I said?" Mr. Xuan muttered angrily. He took out a chicken leg from somewhere and walked to the edge of the assessment area.
"Okay, I'll give you a quarter of an hour to prepare. Just start when I call you start, don't hold back, I'll be watching."
