Four Soul Bones
The next morning, Tang San brought Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling to the dean's office at the Shrek Academy.
When Flender saw Tang San push the door open and enter, and then saw the two girls behind him, he stood up and put on his standard dean's smile.
Tang San stepped aside and introduced, "Dean, these two are my girlfriends, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling. They want to transfer to the Shrek Academy and participate in the Soul Master Tournament with me a year from now."
Flender looked incredulous. The granddaughter of Poison Douluo and the successor of the Nine Heart Begonia were coming to the Shrek Academy?
Flender couldn't help but smile and quickly helped the two complete their enrollment procedures.
With everything settled, Tang San led Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling through the campus to where Xiao Wu was cultivating.
Xiao Wu was meditating cross-legged with her eyes closed. When Tang San and his companions approached, Xiao Wu opened her eyes and saw Tang San, as well as Dugu Yan Tang San Ye Lingling behind him.
She showed no surprise, no panic, and none of the hostility she felt towards Tang San.
Xiao Wu had known this day would come. Tang San had already told her back in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Before Tang San could speak, Xiao Wu stepped forward and waved with a smile, "My Xiao Wu. You must be Sister Yanzi and Sister Lingling that Third Brother often mentions, right? When Third Brother was in Nuoding City, he told me about you every day."
Dugu Yan was very happy to see that Xiao Wu was younger than her, very beautiful, and had taken the initiative to greet her.
Dugu Yan grasped Xiao Wu's hand, her eyes filled with joy. "Hello, Xiao Wu, I'm Dugu Yan. From now on, we're sisters. If Third Brother bullies you, tell me, and I'll teach him a lesson."
Ye Lingling stepped forward, smiling as she introduced herself, "Xiao Wu, hello, my name is Ye Lingling. Please take care of me from now on."
The three girls stood there, talking to each other.
Tang San stood to the side, watching them get along harmoniously, without any unpleasantness caused by him, and the weight that had been hanging over his heart finally lifted.
He stepped forward and shook hands with each of the three in turn, his gaze sweeping over their faces. "From now on, we're family. Let's work hard together."
Four hands clasped together. Sunlight poured down from above, bathing the four of them in a golden glow.
The three women nodded vigorously, their eyes filled with beautiful hopes for the future.
And so the days went by, with the four of them cultivating peacefully every day.
A few days later, an explosive message came from the Spirit Hall, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up huge waves throughout the entire Soul Master World.
The reward for this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament is actually four Soul Bones.
A single Soul Bone is an extremely rare treasure, one that is hard to come by and an ordinary Soul Master may never see in their entire life.
The Spirit Hall offered four pieces as prizes for the competition at once, a truly astonishing amount.
Some say the Spirit Hall is showing off its strength, while others say it's Spirit Hall momentum for an upcoming major operation.
Regardless of the reason, the news of the four Soul Bones swept through every high-level Soul Master Academy on the continent like a hurricane.
When Tang San heard this news, he was also filled with doubt.
Wasn't there three Soul Bones in the original story? How did it become four?
Could it be that because of his own actions, the Golden Generation has grown from three to four members? And who is this extra member?
But so far, I haven't had a significant impact on the overall situation of the Douluo Continent.
Could it be him?
A figure flashed through Tang San's mind.
All the colleges are now gearing up for the competition.
Even colleges that didn't initially place much importance on the competition began forming teams and starting intensive training.
Shrek Academy was no exception.
To ensure fairness, Flender issued a notice at the academy.
Apart from the three support Soul Masters designated by the team leader and Soul Ancestor of level 40 or above who can directly join the Shrek Team.
All students at the Shrek Academy who are at the Soul Elder level or above are eligible to register and participate in the competition.
The competition is fair and open; whoever is stronger will advance.
The three designated support characters are Ye Lingling, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong. Jiang Zhu, the healing support Soul Master in the original work, was naturally replaced by Ye Lingling because her role overlapped with Ye Lingling's.
Among Soul Ancestor of level 40 and above, there are only three: Tang San, Dugu Yan, and Xiao Wu.
The three of them naturally didn't need to participate in the competition.
In other words, all students of the Shrek Academy will compete for the remaining five spots based on their abilities.
Flender personally organized the selection process, with Zhao Wuji and Qin Ming serving as judges.
The selection process lasted for several days.
The selection process has concluded, and the final list has been finalized.
The main force consists of seven players.
The team captain, Tang San, Martial Soul Blue Silver Emperor martial soul. He is level 53 and is Battle Soul King of unknown type. In any case, he excels in control, strong attacks, and support, but his weakness lies in agility attacks.
However, due to its long range and unpredictable attacks, Blue Silver Grass can also be used as a fast-attack unit.
Vice Captain, Dugu Yan, Martial Soul: Jade Phosphorous Flood Dragon, Level 48, Control and Power Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor.
Other key players:
Xiao Wu, Martial Soul: Soft Bone Rabbit, Level 45, Power Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor.
Dai Mubai, Martial Soul: White Tiger, Level 38, Power Attack System Battle Soul Elder.
Ye Lingling, Martial Soul Nine Heart Begonia, Level 37, Healing-type Battle Soul Elder.
Tai Long, Martial Soul: Great Strength Gorilla, Level 36, Power Attack System Battle Soul Elder.
Jing Ling, Martial Soul Skeleton, Level 33, Agility Attack System Battle Soul Elder.
There are also four substitutes.
Oscar, Martial Soul: Sausage, Level 34, Food-type Soul Elder.
Huang Yuan, Martial Soul Lone Wolf, Level 33, Power Attack System Battle Soul Elder.
Zhu Zhuqing, Martial Soul: Hell Spirit Cat, Level 31, Agility Attack System Battle Soul Elder.
Ning Rongrong, Martial Soul: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Level 29, Support-type Soul Grandmaster.
Ma Hongjun, a former member of the Shrek Seven Devils, was not qualified to participate in the selection because his Soul Power was only level 29 and had not broken through to level 30.
Qin Ming will serve as the team leader.
Qin Ming is a graduate of Shrek and the former leader of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy First Team. His strength and experience are beyond question.
Flender handed over all the team's daily training and tactical arrangements to Qin Ming, while he himself stepped back to take charge of the academy's administrative affairs.
Yu Xiaogang had stopped paying attention to the team's affairs and was now following Flender around every day.
Liu Erlong locked herself in the small courtyard behind the mountain and never came out again.
The Shrek Team roster has been finalized, and the selected members have begun intensive training.
Qin Ming devised a detailed training plan, practicing every aspect repeatedly, from individual tactics and techniques to team coordination, from offensive formations to defensive counter-attacks.
Days passed by like this.
Training, eating, sleeping, then training again.
Sweat dripped onto the playground; everyone had their own goals and were burning with determination.
After all, the allure of four Soul Bones is extraordinary.
As the team captain and the brain of the team on the field, Tang San not only needs to keep up with his own training, but also needs to fully understand his teammates, be familiar with the team's coordination, and direct his teammates.
At the same time, I also need to practice the Soul Breaking Spear Technique, hoping to achieve some success in it before the start of the competition.
It can be said that Tang San's time was fully scheduled every day, and his days were very fulfilling.
