Chapter 131 Soul Guidance Exchange Competition (Second Update)
"They were too arrogant. They not only humiliated us, but also Shrek Academy, saying that we only bullied the weak. We couldn't stand it, so we took action..." said an injured fourth-level soul master.
"Their strength isn't very high. If it's just about soul tools, it wouldn't be difficult for us to suppress them at the same level. However, since the Mingde Hall students joined them, it has become very difficult for us to win. There's one of them who is even a match for Brother Sheng." He Caitou couldn't help but sigh.
"I, Wang Shaojie, am a Level 5 Soul Master. Does anyone at Shrek Academy dare to challenge me?" Wang Shaojie also joined in the fun. In their previous interactions, Wang Shaojie had always been known for his arrogant temperament. Now that he had the opportunity, he was definitely going to spar with the Shrek Academy students.
"Damn, I'm a level five Soul Master too! I refuse to believe I'll lose to this guy!"
In Shrek, a student named Tu Xiangwen stood up angrily, walked to the center of the square, and came to Wang Shaojie.
While the quality of Soul Masters from the Sun Moon Empire is indeed inferior to that of Shrek Academy, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy is far ahead of Shrek Academy in terms of Soul Masters. It is no exaggeration to say that among Soul Master academies of the same level, it would be very difficult for Shrek Academy students to defeat students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.
However, those sent here for exchange and learning this time are all top-tier Soul Guidance System students from Shrek Academy, and can be considered representative figures of Shrek's Soul Guidance System.
This Soul Guidance Exchange Competition carries a great deal of meaning.
Their battle was like the battle between the Sun Moon Empire and Shrek Academy, a battle between the Sun Moon Empire and the top future soul guide talents of the three great empires!
"I hereby declare that the first Soul Guidance Exchange Competition of today has officially begun." The host was also a student from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.
As soon as he finished speaking, the square erupted in cheers, which included not only the cheers of Shrek Academy students but also those of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy students.
Tu Xiangwen, from Shrek Academy, is also one of the core disciples of the Soul Guidance Department. Although he is not yet a full student of the Inner Academy, it is only a matter of time before he enters the Inner Academy.
"Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, Level 5 Soul Master, Wang Shaojie," Wang Shaojie said with a disdainful smile.
"Shrek Academy student, Level 5 Soul Master, Tu Xiangwen." As a Shrek Academy student, although he knew what this match meant, he still maintained the necessary composure.
After exchanging names, both sides retreated to the edge of the square. A large number of soul-guided cannons instantly covered Tu Xiangwen's body, while Wang Shaojie conjured a melee soul-guided weapon in his hand.
Since witnessing Luo Yu's fighting methods, Wang Shaojie has become wiser. He not only prepared a soul-guided shield but also a defensive soul-guided armor.
"The match begins!"
As the start of the match was announced, Wang Shaojie sprang forward like a leopard, his flying soul tool on his back spewing out blue flames as he charged toward Tu Xiangwen.
Tu Xiangwen was not idle either; a large number of metal cannon barrels covered the area, totaling more than fifty!
A dense barrage of soul-guided rays bombarded Wang Shaojie, with at least a hundred rays fired in just two seconds.
However, just when everyone thought Wang Shaojie was going to use his soul-guided shield to withstand the attack, two soul-guided cannons quickly appeared on Wang Shaojie's arm, and two balls of light of different colors were also fired from the cannons.
"drop."
A crisp sound came from Wang Shaojie. Su Yu knew that this was a shock cannon. Its function was to generate shocks. It could not only use the twisting power of the shocks to tear apart the opponent, but also to deal with this kind of dense soul-guided rays.
As for the other red orb, that was a high-explosive bomb. After destroying the dense array of soul-guided rays, it would be the perfect time to attack Tu Xiangwen.
Watching this scene, Su Yu felt that Wang Shaojie had made progress. At least, he was no longer the guy who only relied on close-combat soul tools to fight to the death.
"boom!"
A piercing explosion rang out, the dense soul-guided rays were instantly shattered, and a red high-explosive bomb flew rapidly towards Tu Xiangwen.
Tu Xiangwen remained calm, adjusted his attack angle, and released the Soul Guiding Ray again towards the high-explosive shell.
Isn't he afraid of soul-guided high-explosive bombs?
At this moment, not only Wang Shaojie, but also the onlookers had the same question in their minds.
However, the next moment, the high-explosive bomb suddenly exploded in the air, and a small mushroom cloud rose more than 20 meters above the square!
The soul-guided ray detonated Wang Shaojie's high-explosive bomb, and the shockwave from the explosion slowed Wang Shaojie's advance.
This tactic is indeed considered prudent.
The ensuing battle became a stalemate. Whenever Wang Shaojie accelerated, Tu Xiangwen would unleash a volley of fire, preventing Wang Shaojie from closing the distance.
If Wang Shaojie were to activate his soul-guided shield and force his way through, there would be a 60% chance of failure, because even a level 5 soul-guided shield would have difficulty withstanding a volley of level 5 soul-guided rays.
Even if Wang Shaojie wore the Soul Guidance Armor, it would be the same. Unless he was fast enough, he would have no chance to get close to Tu Xiangwen, and he wouldn't even be able to enter the area within 100 meters of Tu Xiangwen.
"I refuse to believe you can keep suppressing me for long!"
Wang Shaojie frantically activated his flying soul tool, constantly dodging the incoming soul guidance rays.
As time went on, the distance between Wang Shaojie and Tu Xiangwen continued to shrink.
One hundred meters, ninety meters, eighty meters...
Five minutes later, Wang Shaojie's soul-guided shield began to crumble, but he continued to close the distance.
Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters!
"You are destined to lose this battle!"
A roar came from Wang Shaojie's mouth, and the next second, a soul-guided ray struck his soul-guided shield hard, shattering the level 5 soul-guided shield instantly.
Fortunately, Wang Shaojie managed to reach Tu Xiangwen's side before his soul power was exhausted.
Wang Shaojie's soul-guided sword was already thrusting towards him. Although his soul power was greatly depleted, Wang Shaojie's attack was still very steady. With one thrust, three clear sword flowers appeared in the air, like three blooming roses covering all of Tu Xiangwen's vital points.
If this blow were to hit Tu Xiangwen, it would be enough to severely injure him on the spot, and might even endanger his life.
However, Tu Xiangwen did not panic despite the impending danger. A blue halo appeared and collided directly with the three sword flowers.
Tu Xiangwen knew that he could only withstand the attack head-on. If he chose to escape, there wouldn't be enough time. He might as well use all his remaining soul power on the soul guide shield. Only in this way could he minimize the losses.
The soul-guided shield collapsed instantly, as did the three sword flowers. In an instant, the two of them were sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground of the plaza.
"I hereby declare the first Soul Guidance Exchange Match of today a draw!"
After examination, both sides had exhausted their soul power and could no longer continue fighting, so the result could only be considered a draw.
Watching this scene from inside the teaching building, Lin Jiayi shook his head slightly and said to Jing Hongchen beside him, "Hall Master, should we send some disciples from Mingde Hall up?"
"Alright, I want to see how many of these Shrek Academy students can defeat our Mingde Hall disciples at the same level." Jing Hongchen agreed to Lin Jiayi's suggestion.
This is a soul guide exchange competition between the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy and Shrek Academy. The more they win, the more it proves that Shrek Academy is inferior to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy.
Having previously been defeated by Shrek Academy in all the advanced soul master academies across the continent, how could Jing Hongchen not care now that he had a chance for revenge?
"How about letting Luo Yu try out for the last match today?" Lin Jiayi immediately thought of Luo Yu. It has to be said that when it comes to the word "genius," the first person that comes to mind is definitely Luo Yu.
Because, over the years, no student has been able to advance from a Level 2 Soul Master to a Level 6 Soul Master in just over two years like Luo Yu, and even when he was a Level 4 Soul Master, he was able to fight Xiao Hongchen to a standstill for a short period of time!
Later, he stood out all the way in Mingde Hall and was eventually selected as an official member of the team for the next competition!
Such a person would be a textbook example of excellence at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy!
"Let him go and try against that He Caitou. I want to see if Shrek's next official team member can defeat our official team member!" As he said the last sentence, his eyes instantly flashed with intense excitement.
Perhaps, for him, defeating Shrek Academy is a dream he will pursue throughout his life!
Not only him, but countless soul masters in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy also share the same wish. This is an obsession, and also a force that constantly propels them forward!
The second student to appear was a female student from Mingde Hall. If you're here, you'll definitely recognize her. She's Nana, who was knocked unconscious by Su Yu's Soul-Seizing Technique during the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy's points battle a year and a half ago.
After more than a year of growth, Nana has matured quite a bit. Although her skin isn't as fair as an orange, she has a healthy tan. At over 1.8 meters tall, she stands out in a crowd.
Those eyes no longer held the naivety of a year ago; as they stared at the Shrek Seven Devils opposite them, sharp sparks seemed to ignite within them.
"Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, Sixth Year, Practical Control Soul Guidance Department, Nana."
Hearing this sound, Su Yu was too lazy to continue watching. Anyway, he was going to lose, and being less skilled was simply being less skilled.
Su Yu didn't need to take action; otherwise, he would only expose his actual combat strength. The stronger a person is, the easier it is for them to be targeted, especially given his sensitive identity.
If Shrek can't even handle this kind of crisis, then it really just means that the people they sent are incompetent.
After leaving the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, Su Yu searched for his father, Su Xinyuan, and mother, Mu Hanyan, in Mingdu based on the aura of their souls.
Sure enough, Su Yu found the two of them on the busiest street.
Su Xinyuan, dressed in the magnificent robes of the Sun Moon Empire, strolled leisurely down the street with Mu Hanyan, who wore a pure white dress, by his arm. They occasionally greeted the dignitaries and nobles who passed by.
Good heavens, what a life! Your own son is suffering and toiling away at the academy, while you two are off on your honeymoon in the old Sun and Moon Empire. No wonder I couldn't find you two after I got home.
Su Yu quickly came up behind the two of them and coughed heavily twice.
It must be said that those two coughs were quite effective, causing Su Xinyuan and Mu Hanyan to both startle and turn around to look at Su Yu with surprise.
"We'll talk about it when we get back. We'll talk after your mother and I finish shopping."
Su Xinyuan glared at the suddenly appearing Su Yu with a look of displeasure, his face full of disgust.
Mu Hanyan excitedly took Su Yu's hand and said with concern, "Let your mother take a good look and see if my Yu'er has lost weight."
As she spoke, she reached out and pinched Su Yu's cheek.
"Can we talk about this later? Your dad promised to take me shopping at Sun and Moon Street in Mingdu." Mu Hanyan said angrily while pinching Su Yu's face, her tone quite coquettish.
Mother, you're already in your forties, how come you're still...
Looking at his mother, who acted like a child, Su Yu could only helplessly cover his face. What kind of parents did I end up with...?
Filled with helplessness and heartache, Su looked at the two people who had boarded the soul-guided vehicle, and could only express his feelings with a long sigh.
As the moon sets in the west, the Ming capital remains brightly lit. In this highly modernized city, everything is so easy to create illusions.
Finding Su Xinyuan and Mu Hanyan's residence wasn't difficult, because Old Chen had come along too.
When Su Yu found Mu Hanyan and Su Xinyuan on the street, he had already discovered Old Chen's whereabouts.
After consulting with Old Chen, Su Yu decided to wait for them to return at their residence.
The place where they stayed was an extremely simple house, far less luxurious than the Su family's. After asking Old Chen, they learned that this was Mu Hanyan's house back then.
Everything here exudes a simple and unpretentious charm; whether it's the furniture or the flooring, you can see the marks of time.
In the living room, there is a painting, or rather, an extremely realistic photograph.
In this photo, you can find not only Su Xinyuan and Mu Hanyan, but also some of the teachers from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.
This picture is clearly a group photo of Su Xinyuan and Mu Hanyan's class. On the back of the picture, the date and the names of Su Xinyuan and Mu Hanyan are also signed.
"It seems you two had a pretty good life back then. If you hadn't gotten along with your classmates, given how vengeful you two are, you probably would never have hung up this painting."
Thank you to Yanzhiyouli, Rongxixi, Gulinghan, Chijiantingfeng, and KongluQAQ for the donations.
An extra chapter was added today, and although it's a bit late, don't worry, there will be three more chapters in the future.
I won't be posting on the same day because I'm not that capable. I can only add one update per day, so please forgive me.
