Chapter 14 - Chapter 14 - Pulling the Curtain Back

After separating from the Tiandou team, the atmosphere in the team finally became a little livelier.

It was too stressful to be with peers who were better than me.

Once they separated, Wen Tingyu stepped forward and approached Luo Yun.

"Captain, what is your fourth soul ability? Let's take a look."

When the others heard this, they all stopped and looked at Luo Yun. Of course he wouldn't hide it from his teammates and teachers. Sooner or later they would find out.

"Martial soul possession, fourth soul skill, starlight protects the body."

Luo Yun's body seemed to be covered in a thin layer of starlight.

The Dean asked Xiong Lie to use his first soul skill of spraying fire and tried it, but it didn't hurt Luo Yun at all.

"My fourth soul skill is called Starlight Body Protection, which not only increases my speed and defense.

My third soul skill has also been strengthened, and it also increases resistance to some special conditions."

Everyone talked about it favorably as if it was free. The effect of this fourth soul skill is too good.

Although he didn't know what kind of soul skills Wu Xing had, most of those soul skills were not as good as this one. Xu Mingxi was also overjoyed for Brother Yun.

"Mingxi, let me try using your first soul skill."

As starlight fell, Luo Yun felt his speed increase. His second and fourth soul rings lit up at the same time, and his figure continued to move quickly between the trees.

Even Coach Yan Feng was surprised by this speed. Luo Yun was now almost catching up with him, the agility attacking soul king.

Yun Ni and the people watching nearby were dumbfounded. How could he, a fast attacking spirit master, be slower than a strong attacking spirit master?

He could only use the difference in soul power to comfort himself, otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to eat.

Wen Tingyu also showed her fourth soul skill, Diamond Armor, which can cover the body with a layer of armor, greatly improving defense.

Now in the Canghui Academy team, except for Luo Yun and Wen Tingyu, the ones with the highest soul power were Xu Mingxi and Ye Zhiqiu at level 36, and the other four were all at level 35.

Less than half a year remained before the Soul Master Competition began, and under normal circumstances it was impossible for anyone to reach level 40.

Everyone returned to the academy and continued to adjust their status. The Canghui Academy also opened up its supply of resources, determined to further improve the strength of its students.

In this Soul Master Competition, Canghui Academy finally produced two Soul Masters, and they also wanted to taste the fame of the mainland.

No miracles happened. During these four or five months, even with the resources provided by the academy, only one person was promoted by one level on average.

As captain, Luo Yun was still at level 41, with no increase in his soul power.

The Soul Master competition was divided into three parts: regional qualifiers, promotion round, and finals.

Although Canghui College is adjacent to the Xingluo Kingdom, it is still directly under the Tiandou Empire, and the preliminary round belongs to the Tiandou City division.

In the event of an accident, President Wen brought two replacement team members to meet everyone.

Both were level 31 Soul Masters, one male, with the spirit of the Fire Wolf, and the other female, with the spirit of the Clear Spirit Bird.

They knew that they didn't know this team, so they sat quietly to the side.

Instead, it was Zhou Lingling, the social phobic, who took the initiative to start the conversation.

Before long, everyone got used to their presence.

The Soul Master competition was about to begin, and Dean Wen had given everyone a lot of instructions and explained the rules of the competition many times.

"Dean, please stop talking. It's time to go. If we keep talking, we'll be late."

"Alright, alright, I won't say anything else. Let's go."

Xu Mingxi sat in the luxurious carriage, raised the curtains, looked at the wild nature outside the window, and was full of anticipation for the upcoming Soul Master Competition.

Within a few days, Xu Mingxi felt that his expectations had been met.

I grew up in the mountains and then went to a small remote town. Even if I'd been to Star Duo Empire's Capital, that place was nothing compared to Heaven Dou Empire's Capital.

Compared to the bright lights and feasts of his previous life, the construction of the Heaven Dou Imperial Capital gave Xu Mingxi an overwhelming feeling of majesty.

After all, Xu Mingxi had seen the world in his previous life, but everything else was even worse, like a villager entering the city, touching here and looking there.

"Alright kids, let's get some rest first. Later tonight you can go shopping."

Heaven Dou City prepared a resting place for the participating team. Dean Wen took everyone to the hotel to put their luggage easily.

The nine-member team dispersed and walked out of the hotel in twos and threes. They wanted to take a look around Tiandou City.

Xu Mingxi was with Luo Yun. This was their first time in Heaven Dou City, so they chose their direction randomly.

As night fell, the lights in Heaven Dou City flickered, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians and merchants.

Moreover, the Soul Master Competition was about to begin, and the city was gathering people from all over the world, making it very lively.   

Xu Mingxi still had plenty of gold soul coins in his storage soul guidebook, so he was determined to treat himself today.

"Brother Yun, there are so many delicious foods in Heaven Dou City."

"Yes, yes, they are indeed delicious."

Xu Mingxi, who had no hobbies but loved to eat, held a ten-year-old grilled squid in his left hand and a hundred-year-old pink pork ribs in his right.

I enjoyed the food immensely, with my mouth full of oil. Although I don't know if the merchant's advertisement was wrong, I think it tasted good.

Although Luo Yun had eaten a lot of good food since he was a child, he had never eaten anything from this small stall because he was under the supervision of the king and queen. Now his eating image was no better than Xu Mingxi's.

"You two, the food in my Heaven Dou City is delicious."

Hey, this voice sounded familiar. The two turned around and saw that it was an old acquaintance.

"Ye Chenxing, why are you here?"

"My home is in Heaven Dou city, why am I here?"

Xu Mingxi then discovered that there was a middle-aged man with gray hair at his temples standing beside Ye Chenxing.

Seeing that the two were confused, Ye Chenxing took the initiative to introduce them.

"This is my father, Ye Renxin."

"Oh, this is Senior Ye Renxin. Junior Luo Yun/Xu Mingxi welcomes you."

"Great, great, seeing you kids makes me feel much younger."

Ye Renxin also heard his son talking about Xu Mingxi and had some impressions of him.

"You came to Heaven Dou City to participate in the Soul Master Competition, right? If you have time, you can come to my Ye Mansion to play."

Xu Mingxi and the others quickly agreed. Ye Renxin was now a famous doctor in the mainland.

When he obtained the eighth soul ring, his healing abilities would be unparalleled.

There were only benefits and there was no harm in establishing a good relationship with a great doctor, and the two of them certainly understood that.

The people from Canghui College were still walking around in the city, while their information had been placed on the tables of the various colleges.

Although Canghui College was not very strong, it was not bad either. Its achievements in the previous years were almost ranked second under the five basic colleges.

Even Dean Wen's class that had the best results almost qualified for the promotion round.

Such a team would certainly be appreciated by all major colleges, not to mention that they also had two Soul Masters this year.

But on the contrary, their information was also put on the table of Canghui College.

Dean Wen's smile from yesterday had disappeared, replaced by an extremely ugly expression.

He gathered everyone in a room and distributed a piece of information to each person.

"We already competed yesterday, it's time to focus today. Here's your opponent's information, take a look."

Seeing the dean's ugly expression, everyone's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the opponent this time was so terrifying?

Xu Mingxi opened the first page, and there was the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team information.

Six Soul Masters? Xue Xiang and Shi Lin were also Soul Masters?

Xu Mingxi didn't pay attention to the other teams and directly attacked the opponent in the first game.

Othello Academy, Captain Gu Ling, level 44 strong attack system, fighter soul sect, lion and tiger martial soul.

This is not the Tang San generation when the Doulou Continent flourished and geniuses sprung up in large numbers.

Feng Xiaotian, Shui Binger, Huo Wu, and even Hu Yanli, each of them had the potential to reach the Titled Douluo level.

In previous years, except for the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and the five elemental academies, the others were considered extremely outstanding if they could produce a Soul Master.

Unexpectedly, this year the little-known Othello College also produced a Soul Master.

"Could it be that my arrival has also caused the emergence of a genius?"

Xu Mingxi couldn't help asking if he was the one who caused the current situation.

There were so many Soul Douluo and Title Douluo seeds, but why had none of them appeared in the original work?

It couldn't be that Spirit Hall killed all these people then.
