Defeat Wei Xiaofeng and Zhang Yangzi (Seeking Investment! Seeking Monthly Tickets! Seeking Recommendation Tickets!) Everyone watched the two people on the field with anticipation in their eyes.

Wei Xiaofeng's expression was grave, his gaze never leaving Jing Shaoyu for a moment. Like a venomous snake ready to strike at any time, he hoped to find an opportunity to win with a single blow. Jing Shaoyu, on the other hand, was far more relaxed, a gentle smile always on his face that made him seem entirely harmless.

"Begin!" Ye Yingluo announced.

The moment her words fell, Wei Xiaofeng impatiently launched his attack. The Azure Shadow Serpent Martial Soul instantly possessed him, and two yellow soul rings lit up at once. Azure Shadow Repetition combined with Azure Shadow Devour transformed him directly into a green serpent trailing afterimages, as though it were lunging at Jing Shaoyu from all directions.

Jing Shaoyu understood Wei Xiaofeng's intentions perfectly. He did not mind—in fact, he was somewhat excited. Since Wei Xiaofeng wanted so badly to defeat him, he naturally would not hold back. He even wanted to take this chance to teach this sharp-tongued fellow a proper lesson.

Thus, Jing Shaoyu raised a hand, and emerald-green light scattered from it onto the ground. The next second, the earth began to tremble faintly. Wild Blue Silver Grass even more frenzied than the kind he had used against Wang Jinxi burst forth, springing up like bamboo shoots after rain. In the blink of an eye, every stalk had grown to the height of a person, leaving all the cadets dumbfounded.

Ye Yingluo, meanwhile, felt as though her wallet was bleeding. She somewhat regretted bringing these children to fight on the field. Was this really something a Great Soul Master could cause?

The suddenly appearing sea of Blue Silver Grass immediately hindered the incredibly fast Wei Xiaofeng. The newly grown grass was lush and green, looking extremely tender. He hesitated only slightly before charging forward without a care.

As Wei Xiaofeng took the initiative to rush into the Blue Silver Grass, the grass that had sprouted at Jing Shaoyu's call began to sway and coil around him. Stalk after stalk stretched toward his body and wrapped around him, drastically slowing his speed. No matter how he darted left and right, he could not break free.

Seeing the fellow trapped in the wild Blue Silver Grass, Jing Shaoyu naturally did not hold back. He immediately pushed both hands forward, sending several fireballs flying from his palms and onto the grass covering the ground. In an instant, the entire patch of Blue Silver Grass turned into a sea of flames.

This truly made Wei Xiaofeng suffer amid the vegetation.

"Damn it! Fighting dirty!" Wei Xiaofeng immediately cursed and chose to change direction, running backward.

However, he had underestimated the combination of flames and wild Blue Silver Grass. By the time he decided to retreat, the fire had already ignited the grass behind him.

Wei Xiaofeng himself could not see it, but Ye Yingluo, Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi, and the other cadets saw it clearly. These wild Blue Silver Grasses were like sentient soul beasts, actually passing the flames to one another on their own, completely unconcerned with being burned to ashes. It was far too strange.

In the end, Ye Yingluo had to rescue Wei Xiaofeng. When he was pulled out, the skin all over his body was scorched red, like a cooked prawn. There was even a faint scent of roasted meat in the air.

"Cough, cough... This feels awful!" Wei Xiaofeng coughed without stopping, his pained expression carrying a hint of ferocity as he let out a groan.

Ye Yingluo shot Jing Shaoyu a mildly reproachful look. "Jing Shaoyu, you went a little too far!"

Jing Shaoyu helplessly waved his hand. "Teacher, I know what I'm doing."

After saying that, he walked to Wei Xiaofeng's side. Under Wei Xiaofeng's somewhat fearful gaze, he raised his hand. The first soul ring behind him lit up, and his First Soul Skill, Light of Healing, activated. A burst of green light brimming with life radiated from his palm and fell upon Wei Xiaofeng.

Only a few seconds later, Wei Xiaofeng discovered in delight that he had recovered. All the charred marks caused by the flames had vanished, and his throat felt clear and refreshed. He no longer needed to cough.

"This..." Wei Xiaofeng's expression shifted before he spoke with reverence and admiration. "Thank you."

"You're welcome," Jing Shaoyu answered calmly.

Seeing this, Ye Yingluo was astonished by Jing Shaoyu once more. Was this the healing soul skill granted by a Thousand-Year Soul Ring? It truly was extraordinary!

The field where the two had fought had already returned to normal. The remaining Blue Silver Grass automatically withdrew into the ground, taking the ashes of their companions with them. The scorch marks left behind showed that what had happened was no dream.

After notifying the academy's maintenance staff to repair the lawn, Ye Yingluo could only lead the Class One cadets elsewhere, moving to another corner of the field for the third round of matches.

In the third round, Jing Shaoyu faced Zhang Yangzi, while Xu Xiaoyan faced Liu Chi.

Zhang Yangzi's expression was solemn. Judging from Jing Shaoyu's battle with Wei Xiaofeng, he, like Wei Xiaofeng, was an Agility-Attack Type Great Soul Master and had no advantage whatsoever against Jing Shaoyu. Jing Shaoyu's Plant Control was simply too powerful—practically impossible for him to counter.

At Ye Yingluo's command to begin, Zhang Yangzi could only force himself forward.

"Go, Yangzi!" Wang Jinxi shouted, cheering Zhang Yangzi on.

The moment he entered the field, Zhang Yangzi released his Martial Soul. The Dark Illusion Demon Eagle possessed him, and a pair of black wings appeared behind his back. Immediately afterward, two yellow soul rings emerged. One of them flashed brightly, and the black wings rapidly expanded until the entire field became as dark as night.

The Dark Illusion Demon Eagle's First Soul Skill, Dark Sky Curtain! Jing Shaoyu was enveloped within the Dark Sky Curtain. His vision went completely black, and his bodily senses weakened significantly. Yet he did not panic in the slightest. With a calm smile, he raised his hand, and a scorching fireball appeared in it. Its burning flames brought a sliver of light, illuminating part of the area.

Seeing this, Zhang Yangzi inwardly lamented his bad luck. He then concealed himself in the darkness, preparing to wage a battle of endurance against Jing Shaoyu. He intended to wait until Jing Shaoyu let his guard down before striking and defeating him in one move! However, his plan was still far too idealistic.

The cadets outside the field watched anxiously. Because of the Dark Sky Curtain, they could not see what was happening inside. Only Ye Yingluo could rely on her cultivation to ignore the interference of the Dark Sky Curtain and see everything clearly.

After only a few short minutes, the cadets understood the outcome. Zhang Yangzi was blasted out of the Dark Sky Curtain by a wave of water, drenched from head to toe like a soaked chicken. The darkness covering the field slowly dissipated as well, revealing an entirely composed Jing Shaoyu.

The match ended. Jing Shaoyu won.

Zhang Yangzi had hoped to use the Dark Sky Curtain to find Jing Shaoyu's weakness. It was a good idea, but the range of his Dark Sky Curtain was about the same as Jing Shaoyu's Water Shriek Art. Jing Shaoyu merely had to release wave after wave of water to keep him constantly scrambling to evade.

Thus, the final result was that he was struck by the Water Shriek Art, knocked back, and washed beyond the range of the Dark Sky Curtain.

"Yangzi, are you all right?" Wang Jinxi hurried over to Zhang Yangzi. He first expressed concern, then broke into a mocking grin. "Hahaha, you really are a drenched chicken now! Hahaha!"

"Get lost!" Zhang Yangzi snapped back immediately. "You weren't any better off than me! Hurry up and help me up!"

"Fine, fine, I'm helping you up, I'm helping you up!" Wang Jinxi said with a grin as he pulled Zhang Yangzi to his feet.

The next match was Xu Xiaoyan versus Liu Chi.

Liu Chi had eighteen levels of Soul Power. His Martial Soul was a Pu Dao, and his first soul ring was a Hundred-Year Soul Ring. He was a rather quiet and reserved boy.

The battle between the two ended quickly. No matter what, Xu Xiaoyan was a control-type Great Soul Master with two soul rings. Against an assault-type soul master with only one ring, it might not have been utterly effortless, but she still swept him aside with ease.

Just like that, the final contenders for the position of Class Monitor had been decided: Jing Shaoyu and Xu Xiaoyan.

"Good, the final match," Ye Yingluo said. She was somewhat surprised. Before class began, she truly had not expected Jing Shaoyu, a Healing Great Soul Master, to make it into the final round. Moreover, he had reached it by defeating three Great Soul Masters in succession. If he could continue and defeat Xu Xiaoyan, then he would have defeated four Great Soul Masters in a row. The title of Class Monitor would carry considerable weight indeed.

"Hehe, Little Yu Brother, I won't go easy on you!" Xu Xiaoyan said from across the field, a playful smile on her little face.

"Don't worry. I'll be gentler," Jing Shaoyu replied, revealing a mischievous smile of his own.

"Begin!" Ye Yingluo gave the command.

Without another word, Xu Xiaoyan immediately raised the Star Wheel Ice Staff in her hand. An Ice Wheel flew toward Jing Shaoyu. Jing Shaoyu did not hesitate either. With a light tap of his toes, he leaped into the air, and the wings behind his back began to flap, carrying him aloft.

Ye Yingluo, Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi, Wei Xiaofeng, and the others were all stunned, their faces filled with shock. They had never imagined that Jing Shaoyu's wings were not merely decorative—that he could truly fly! His Origin Spirit Martial Soul was simply far too terrifying! The new book was still a tender sapling and desperately needed care! Seeking Investment, Seeking Monthly Tickets, Seeking Recommendation Tickets! Many thanks to all the bosses!
