Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 - Encounter

Canghui Academy did not have the tradition of letting students go to the fighting spirit arena for real battles.

There is usually one Soul King master or several Soul Master masters who take turns fighting against the seven academy team members.

Let them experience different types of soul masters and discover their own shortcomings.

The bruises on Xu Mingxi's body hadn't disappeared for the past few days. If it weren't for the medicinal bath that his family prepared, he didn't know if he could survive.

However, the results were also clear.

Although his soul force hadn't improved, Xu Mingxi could clearly feel that his physical fitness had improved significantly.

Close combat also continued to improve under Luo Yun's teaching.

The improvement of soul force required years of continuous practice.

Although there didn't seem to be a superficial concept of cultivation on the Doulou Continent.

But Xu Mingxi believed that only what he cultivated himself was real.

Though he wouldn't mind asking his sect master and grandfather for those magic potions if the time came.

Speaking of magic potions, Xu Mingxi already had an idea, but he had searched through all the classics in the sect and found no relevant records.

We can only wait and see if we can find a breakthrough from the Yang family's Soulbreaking Spear or Ju Douluo Yueguan.

Time passed quickly during the training and beating.

In the blink of an eye, a year passed and Xu Mingxi's soul power reached level thirty-six.

This was the result of the Star Soul Summoning Skill increasing his training speed, coupled with his diligent practice every day.

The rest of the team was basically around level thirty-four or thirty-five.

However, Luo Yun and Wen Tingyu worked hard secretly and reached level 40 in just one year.

In order to obtain the fourth soul ring for Luo Yun and Wen Tingyu, and also to increase the tacit understanding among the team members.

The Dean decided to personally lead the school team to the Star Dou Great Forest to help Luo Yun obtain the fourth soul ring.

Accompanying them were coach Yan Feng and a Soul Emperor sent by Star Luo's royal family to avoid accidents.

The soul beasts the two of them needed were about 4,000 years old and mostly appeared on the outskirts of the mixed zone.

Such a team led by a Soul Saint was enough in most cases.

At least that was what Xu Mingxi thought. He was certain that since his sister and brother-in-law had only sent out one Soul Emperor, there shouldn't be any danger.

After all, an accident like the one that befell the Erming Titan Ape was unlikely.

If it really happened, even grandfather might not be able to protect us.

Xu Mingxi put a lot of food and outdoor gear into the storage soul guide, and he was ready.

In the hospital team, only Xiong Lie and Ye Zhiqiu were civilians and didn't have storage soul guides, so they temporarily left their belongings to others.

A team of ten people set off in a grand procession on a horse-drawn carriage.

Canghui College wouldn't do anything stupid like rushing.

You can train in the carriage, then quickly hunt the beasts, and then quickly return to the professional training ground to practice. Isn't that great?

Does simply running count as training? In any case, Xu Mingxi completely disagreed.

Nothing happened along the way, and the ten people managed to arrive at the small town outside of Star Dou Great Forest.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the entrance of the city, I was immediately stopped before entering.

"Are they our friends from Canghui College?"

Xu Mingxi turned around and saw a group of nine people wearing uniform clothes.

There were also two middle-aged and elderly people along with a group of young boys and girls. They must be from an academy leading a team to hunt down spirit rings.

As the team leader, Dean Wen naturally had to come out, and he seemed to know the leader of the opposing team.

"Zhi Lin, what's wrong? You're old and your eyesight isn't good."

"Isn't this Dean Wen? Why is he leading the team to get the spirit ring? Is there no one left in Canghui Academy?"

Dean Wen met Zhi Lin at the Spirit Master Competition. Back then, both of them were on different teams.

Ever since the time he was bound by Zhilin's Azure Ivy and saw his friends eliminated, the two of them held a grudge against each other.

Later, one of them became the dean and the other the director, and they began to compete with each other in the quality of their students.

"Dean Wen, meetings are destiny. How about we go to the Star Dou Great Forest together so we can take care of each other."

"In that case, I will trouble Director Zhilin."   

The Star Dou Great Forest was full of dangers, and the two Soul Sages were better able to deal with sudden crises.

After all, the two had been fighting for many years, and they had an understanding of each other's characters, so there was still a basis for trust.

While the two team leaders exchanged witty remarks, the students were also judging each other.

And Xu Mingxi saw only one word from these Heaven Dou Royal Academy students: Pride.

They didn't even pay much attention to the team from Canghui College. They didn't get too close to each other and just stood there indifferently.

However, when he saw Xu Mingxi, he still showed a surprised expression.

All those present were students who would be participating in the next Soul Master Competition. They were all between 20 and 25 years old. Xu Mingxi's face seemed especially stiff among them.

Zhilin also noticed Xu Mingxi who was clearly out of place.

"Dean Wen, your team is not yet complete, and you brought a junior to see the world."

"No way, Mingxi is also a contestant. Although he looks young, he's actually almost nineteen years old."

"Really? She's a hero at a young age. Why don't you come to my Heaven Dou Royal Academy? The treatment there is definitely better than what you got at Canghui Academy."

Zhilin was not the kind of person who liked to silence geniuses. Instead, he had a heart that encouraged talent.

You're not even nineteen years old yet, you're old enough to participate in this Soul Master Competition.

Then in the next session, wouldn't it be possible to book a team member who is at least a high-level Soul Master?

Before Xu Mingxi could say anything, Dean Wen was furious and stood between Zhilin and Xu Mingxi.

"What? You want to hijack my students? You want me to train with you?"

Zhilin was not yet a member of the teaching committee of the Cons. At level 73, his strength was about the same as Dean Wen's.

She might have a slight advantage due to her control system, but Dean Wen definitely wouldn't underestimate her.

Xu Mingxi looked at Dean Wen and felt somewhat strange

Why did he let Shi Nian become the vice dean. Canghui College had become chaotic because of him. Dean Wen didn't seem like the type of person who would do anything to achieve his goals.

"Don't get excited. I just don't want to see a genius buried. My Tiandou Royal Academy is the number one academy in the Tiandou Empire."

"Thank you for your kindness. I still want to stay at Canghui Academy."

Xu Mingxi wasn't stupid. If he went to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, how could he live a peaceful life? Maybe he would even drag the sect into it.

Zhilin didn't say anything. The invitation was just a spontaneous decision. A 19-year-old Soul Master was not that talented yet.

"Alright, in order to work together in the Star Dou Great Forest, kids, show them what you're capable of."

After entering the Star Dou Great Forest, the teachers leading the team would not act rashly.

If the students want to cooperate with the beasts, they must naturally understand the situation of their own people first.

"Yu Xiaotian, level 40 strong attack type combat soul expert, Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus martial soul."

"Ning Fengxue, level 34 auxiliary weapon soul expert, Seven-layered Pagoda Martial Soul Treasure."

"Wu Xing, level 40 strong attack-type combat soul expert, Red Dragon martial soul."

"Xue Xiang, level 38 agile attack-type combat soul expert, White Feather Eagle martial soul."

"Meng You, level 39 soul control type, Black Demon martial soul."

"Shi Lin, level 38 defense-type soul master, Black Tortoise martial soul."

"Ye Chenxing, level 36 auxiliary type soul master, Green Heart Begonia martial soul."

What a gorgeous lineup. The level of soul power is much higher than that of the Canghui Academy, and the martial soul is even stronger.

Xu Mingxi noticed that these people were more like a composite of various forces than students.

Canghui College also reported the information, but they only glanced at Luo Yun, Wen Tingyu and Xu Mingxi after hearing it.

It seemed that other people weren't worthy of being taken seriously by them.

Although everyone was angry, they also knew that the gap was indeed large. Not just the gap between themselves, but also the gap between the forces that were behind them. In the end, they endured it.

Even Luo Yun didn't step forward when he saw Xu Mingxi hadn't moved.

A group of nineteen people walked toward Star Dou Great Forest in a mighty manner and immediately disappeared into it.

To Star Dou Great Forest, these dozen people were nothing more than specks of dust. Because they were covered by trees, they didn't cause any waves.
