Five Wins in a Row

The two of them coordinating their Soul Skills made Su Boren, who had been expressionless, start to frown.

Originally, within Huo Yuxi's control range, their soul power consumption was already fast, and Luo Ling's Soul Skill forced them to use their own Soul Skills.

This meant that within the thirty seconds Huo Yuxi's Second Soul Skill was maintained, their soul power was very likely to be drained.

There was no other way.

"Jiaojiao, Shaoxuan, stand still and don't move. Don't circulate your soul power either." Knowing that his stamina was also being consumed rapidly, Su Boren quickly told his two teammates not to act rashly, and he controlled the pages of his book to block in front of them.

Huo Yuxi's Second Soul Ring was over two thousand years old. Coupled with the attack from Luo Ling's Second Soul Skill, Su Boren's Soul Skill, which was only over four hundred years old, couldn't hold on for long.

Before the Soul Skill even ended, Su Boren directly fell to the ground. Under the environment where his mental power, stamina, and soul power were all being consumed doubly, using three pages simultaneously was his limit, which was twenty seconds.

Seeing their captain being carried away with a pale face, Chi Shaoxuan and Chen Jiaojiao's eyes turned red. But now was not the time to be sad; they were on the competition stage and had to have the spirit of competition!

Chen Jiaojiao cast her gaze towards Lu Wanwan. A one-on-one stalemate was clearly unrealistic, so only Chi Shaoxuan could keep Luo Ling and Huo Yuxi occupied.

She would eliminate Lu Wanwan first, then go to assist Chi Shaoxuan in restraining Huo Yuxi and eliminating Luo Ling, and finally, they could only have a chance to win this match by dealing with Huo Yuxi together.

Her eyes firm, she raised the pitch-black wolf-tooth club and charged towards Lu Wanwan.

While the wolf-tooth club's appearance hadn't changed, everyone clearly felt its aura had become stronger, and Chen Jiaojiao's imposing manner had also become much more powerful.

Huo Yuxi saw the situation on her side and wanted to break free from Chi Shaoxuan to help Lu Wanwan.

But Chi Shaoxuan seemed to have opened up his meridians. Despite the significant gap in strength, he managed to drag them both until Chen Jiaojiao successfully eliminated Lu Wanwan.

Chen Jiaojiao quickly joined in to share Huo Yuxi's offensive pressure with Chi Shaoxuan. However, the gap in strength was still there. In the first half of the match, they had consumed much more soul power than Huo Yuxi and the others.

To win, they could only opt for a quick resolution.

Chi Shaoxuan's offensive gradually became fiercer, and his angles became more tricky. As a control-type Soul Master, Luo Ling was not as skilled in close combat as him and was starting to struggle to cope.

She had sustained injuries, and blood seeped from the wounds, soaking her white academy uniform red.

On the other side, Chen Jiaojiao noticed her soul power was about to be depleted, and her anxiety grew.

At this moment, her mind went blank, allowing Huo Yuxi to find an opening. With a flick of her wrist, several Tang Sect hidden weapons shot towards her simultaneously.

Chen Jiaojiao was caught off guard. After her rhythm was disrupted, she began to retreat steadily.

Finally, Huo Yuxi punched her off the stage.

With the match reaching this point, there was no suspense if it continued. Chi Shaoxuan raised his hands, turned, and jumped off the stage himself, "I concede."

The proctor came onto the stage to announce the result: "First match of District 21, Huo Yuxi's team wins!"

"Next match..."

After Luo Ling got off the stage, Lu Wanwan immediately came to her side. "Luo Ling, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, just superficial wounds."

Luo Ling's injuries were not as severe as those of the other three, so the medical teacher attended to them first.

Lu Wanwan was still worried about her injuries. "Xixi, we want to go to the infirmary to get checked. Do you want to stay here and watch by yourself, or go back to the dorms first?"

Huo Yuxi thought that since the first match ended so quickly and not much time had passed, and she didn't know when Xiao Xiao and the others would compete, she might as well wait until it was over and then find them.

"I'll stay here and watch."

"Okay, then we'll be going." After Lu Wanwan finished speaking, she helped Luo Ling walk away.

Huo Yuxi sat upright in her seat and watched the match. After a while, Su Boren walked over with his two teammates and sat down in the adjacent seats. "Huo Yuxi, hello!"

"Hello." Huo Yuxi turned and looked at him, nodding in greeting.

The three of them were much taller than her, and the difference was very noticeable when they sat down. Huo Yuxi's desire to grow taller surged again.

Su Boren's eyes were fixed on the competition stage, but his peripheral vision was on Huo Yuxi. To be honest, if he hadn't inquired about Huo Yuxi's family background, judging solely by her etiquette and posture, he would have thought she was the daughter of some noble family.

Huo Yuxi didn't have time to care what he was thinking. This match was quite interesting. The strength difference between the two sides was not large, and the fight was back and forth. She watched with great enjoyment.

It was everyone's first match, and most of them chose to conserve their strength. Moreover, today's match was mainly to allow the students to adapt to this combat mode. The first round of the freshman assessment ended quickly.

The assessment was limited to three days. Only one match was played on the first day, so the remaining two days would naturally make up for it. Therefore, the second day had four rounds, two in the morning and two in the afternoon, with the remaining five rounds compressed into the third day.

This competition system was also intended to train the students' endurance.

In order to conserve enough energy to cope with the assessment, Huo Yuhao decided not to sell grilled fish for the next two days, dedicating all his time to cultivation.

Huo Yuxi was the same, even eating twice as fast as usual.

After the first day of matches, the students in District 21 had a general assessment of the strength of other teams. Except for Huo Yuxi's group and Su Boren's group, the soul power levels of the other students were all below level 20.

In the second day's matches, the teams that faced these two groups all gave up struggling and conserved their strength to face the next group.

After the match ended, the proctor walked onto the stage. "Today's matches are over. As everyone knows, teams that lose all their matches in the first five rounds will be eliminated. Fortunately, our District 21 has no such teams."

"Tomorrow's matches will involve a redraw. This time, besides considering that you won't face classmates, we will also consider your previous results. Therefore, some of you will be moved to other districts. I hope everyone will continue to strive for excellence in the upcoming matches and achieve victory."

"That's all for today. Go back and get some good rest!"

After the dispersal, Luo Ling and Lu Wanwan went to attend to their matters. Huo Yuxi returned to the dormitory building alone and happened to run into Huo Yuhao and two others who were just about to go out. "Brother."

Huo Yuhao took two steps forward and said, "Xixi, you're back! I was just about to look for you. How was today's assessment?"

"Mm, it was okay." Huo Yuxi nodded. "In our assessment district, I was the only one whose soul power level reached level 30. Besides my two teammates, there were two others with soul power above level 20. When other teams encountered us, they voluntarily went easy, so we won very easily."

Huo Yuhao reached out and smoothed down the strand of hair sticking up on her head. "That's good. Tomorrow's matches will have a new draw, and you might face stronger opponents."

"But don't worry too much. I went to understand from Teacher Zhou, and among this batch of new students, there are very few Soul Masters whose strength is comparable to yours. Moreover, your team composition is very strong. Reaching the top sixty-four should not be a problem."

He paused and added, "Even though I say that, I still hope you prioritize yourself. It's okay if you lose; you are more important."

"Mm."
