Peerless: After traveling through time, who would still want to be Tang San’s son-in-law?
Chapter 101 Soul Master Competition
Chapter 101 Soul Master Competition
On the top floor of the Star Emperor Hotel, the twelve Shrek students who came to participate in the competition and Wang Yan sat quietly in the conference room.
“Teacher Wang, has the school sent reinforcements?” Huo Yuhao’s voice rang out, breaking the heavy atmosphere in the conference room.
“The college does not plan to send more reinforcements,” Wang Yan said truthfully after a moment of silence.
“But don’t be discouraged. We have three regular players in perfect condition. This is enough to defeat Soul Emperor-level warriors. In the Soul Master Competition, this is already a crushing combat force.”
“In addition, our substitutes are not inferior to the regular players of most teams. You should know that there are four Soul Masters among our substitutes. In the Soul Master Competition, a Four-ring Soul Master is already a core force, and we Shrek are invincible in the same level!”
“Alright, you guys should go back and rest early. You must win the first elimination match beautifully for me tomorrow!”
After leaving the conference room, Gong Yangmo bowed slightly to Huo Yuhao and said, “Thank you very much for this time.”
Previously, in order to recover before the game, he had been conditioning his body as he had overdrawn his soul power when activating the soul guide shield. It was not until this time that he had the opportunity to formally thank Huo Yuhao for saving his life.
Ling Luochen and Xixi looked at each other upon seeing this, and bowed together with Gong Yangmo to express their gratitude.
“You’re welcome. We’re teammates.” Huo Yuhao waved his hand.
“The next Soul Master Competition will depend on you to display your power.”
After the meeting, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong returned to the room together.
“What’s wrong? Why are you so unhappy here?”
Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong, who had been silent since he came back.
“Yuhao,”
Wang Dong raised his head slightly and looked at Huo Yuhao with a confused look in his eyes: “Are soul guides really the trend of the times?”
Witnessing with his own eyes how Ling Luochen and his companions used soul guides to avoid fatal threats, Wang Dong clearly realized the advantages of soul guides.
But for some reason, even though her mind clearly told her that she had accepted soul guides, she still inexplicably hated them.
“Times are always moving forward.” Huo Yuhao sighed.
“In ten thousand years, even if one generation is twenty years, five hundred generations have passed, but the limit of soul masters is still stuck at level ninety-nine, with no progress at all.”
“Since the collision and fusion of the Sun Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent, how much progress have soul guides made?”
“If we continue to develop at this speed, the power of the soul guide will be comparable to that of the Ultimate Douluo sooner or later.”
“Just like when soul masters rose from the encirclement of soul beasts, it is never the times that choose who, but who is more adaptable to this era. At least in this era, it is the era of the rise of soul guides.”
“Soul guides are just tools after all. I never thought that soul guides can replace soul masters. But you have to understand that soul masters may not be able to make tools, but they must be able to use them.”
“Soul mentors and soul masters are originally two different development paths. When soul masters abandon their prejudices and equip themselves with soul guides, there is no need to spend time studying soul guides. Soul masters who focus on cultivating themselves can definitely crush soul mentors in terms of personal strength.”
Wang Dong was silent for a moment, waved goodbye to Huo Yuhao, and quietly returned to his room. He hugged his knees and hid in the quilt without making any sound.
Silent all night.
“Shrek! Shrek!”
Amid cheers from the audience, the Shrek team slowly walked onto the fighting stage.
As the first knockout match, the Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy was indeed not a qualified opponent. Even Beibei, Xu Sanshi, and Cai Tou did not choose to play, but gave the opportunity to Huo Yuhao and the other two who had lower cultivation levels.
“The game begins!” Following the referee’s shout, students from both teams released their martial spirits almost at the same time.
However, when seeing the spirit ring configuration of Shrek Academy, many people were dumbfounded for a moment.
“What’s going on? How come Shrek’s team has two second-ring spirit rings this time? One of them even has one white and one yellow spirit ring?”
Amid the cheers, there were occasionally a few viewers who were confused about Shrek’s lineup this time.
After all, looking back at all the previous Soul Master Competitions, Shrek has never had a second-ring contestant, so this time can be said to have made history.
Hearing the doubts of the people around him, a Shrek fan retorted: “What Shrek Academy lacks the most is talent. There are countless three-ring students of the right age. These two-ring students must have something extraordinary to stand out and participate in the Soul Master Competition. The competition five years later will be their real stage.”
“I accept the girl with two yellows, but you tell me what’s so special about the one white and one yellow guy.”
“You…you…what do you know! Do you know soul masters or does Shrek know soul masters? Shrek must have his reasons for choosing this kid. If you have the ability, you can get admitted to Shrek!”
The team consisting of five fourth-ring and two third-ring members was unable to cause any trouble when there were three inner court disciples in charge.
“Look, how could there be a problem with Shrek Academy’s selection of players? The second ring beat the third ring without any chance of fighting back. This is the genius of Shrek Academy!”
“What about the guy who was watching the whole thing from the back?”
“Didn’t you see that his first spirit ring was always lit? It’s obvious that his spirit skills have been working!”
“What’s the use of a ten-year spirit ring even if it stays lit all the time?”
“You!” The true fan pointed at Xiao Heizi tremblingly, “Humph, you are not my friend. People like you will never understand Shrek’s ability in training soul masters!”
After successfully passing the elimination round, the Shrek team, who had been worried about running into the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Team in the elimination round, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and even had time to tease He Caitou’s soul skills.
Huo Yuhao didn’t smoke in his previous life, let alone something as “high-end” as a cigar.
However, seeing that the cigar could increase his mental power by 10%, Huo Yuhao couldn’t resist his curiosity and lit one.
How does this thing suck?
Huo Yuhao picked up the cigar and took a light puff, imitating the way others smoked.
“Cough…cough cough!”
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect that you, Huo Yuhao, can’t even smoke a cigar!” Looking at Huo Yuhao’s embarrassed look, Wang Dong laughed happily.
This was the first time in more than a year that Wang Dong saw Huo Yuhao suffer a defeat.
“Junior brother, don’t inhale the air into your body. Just let it stay in your mouth for a while and then exhale.”
Seeing that Huo Yuhao really didn’t know how to smoke, the experienced He Caitou began to teach Huo Yuhao the correct way to smoke a cigar.
Following He Caitou’s instructions, Huo Yuhao held the smoke in his mouth and silently felt the taste of the cigar.
The food produced by the food-type soul masters on the Douluo Continent is very magical. Basically, it is not much different from normal food, but it can provide magical amplification.
Moreover, this unreasonable 100% increase actually ignored the difference in cultivation level, which was really outrageous. Even the “million-year” soul beast Tianmeng was blown away by a hundred-year soul ring.
