"Right now, your Soul Power is only level nine. You haven't become Soul Master yet. Even if your speed increases after the Martial Soul Possession, you won't have any attack power and can't be considered Agility-Attack System."

Zhou Qing continued, "With your current abilities, you can also have an impact on the other side. You can temporarily act as an assassin, wandering around and taking the opportunity to kill people... Well, that is, wait until the other side's Soul Power is too depleted before launching a sneak attack."

"You can do it like this?" Qingzhu Zhu felt that this way of playing was a bit... opportunistic, but given her current situation, it seemed that this was really the only way to do it.

"But, her, Qingzhu Zhu, right? It seems she hasn't become Soul Master. Even if she launches a sneak attack, can she break through the defenses of the opposing Soul Master?" Mo Hen came back to his senses and pondered the assassin among the six professions Zhou Qing had mentioned earlier.

"Although she doesn't have Soul Ring or Soul Skill, after her Martial Soul Possession, her speed should be no slower than any of those seven people. Just be careful not to let them get close," Zhou Qing said to Qingzhu Zhu. "And right now, due to your height, you can't attack vulnerable areas like the neck and eyes. So, when you finish off the remaining enemies, don't aim for a one-hit kill. Target their toes and ankles."

Mo Hen hesitated for a moment. "This seems a bit... indecent? Isn't stepping on someone's toes a trick only kids do?"

"Aren't we children?" Zhou Qing retorted.

"·····"

Mo Hen had nothing to say, but deep down he felt that if he won in the end, the other teachers at the Nuoding Academy might tease him, saying, "Teacher Mo Hen is really childlike."

"I understand. I will look for opportunities to attack their toes and ankles, causing them to lose their balance and creating opportunities for the others." Qingzhu Zhu had already recognized her role in the team and knew what she should do in the battles to come.

"Um."

Zhou Qing nodded, understanding his role. He knew that he wouldn't need to give orders to Qingzhu Zhu during the fight, thus reducing the chance for the enemy to react.

In the original work, in Soul Fight like this, the two teams would shout when sending attack signals. Although each team had its own unique codes and gestures to prevent the opponent from easily knowing what they wanted to do, the process of sending signals too loudly or the body movements being too exaggerated would always make the opponent wary.

The combat method established by Zhou Qing does not require much tacit understanding between the players. As long as everyone knows their responsibilities and fulfills them, that is enough.

While the level of teamwork might not be very high without communication, it can certainly improve the efficiency of completing individual tasks.

This is the best way to maximize the cooperation of a team that doesn't know each other well or have much chemistry in a short period of time.

"Wang Sheng, your profession is Tank, and you also play as a warrior. So your main task is the same as Qingzhu Zhu's: find the right opportunity to attack the ankle of the opponent who has consumed too much Soul Power."

"Huh? Shouldn't I protect Third Brother and take the damage for him?" Wang Sheng didn't fully understand the Six Major Classes Zhou Qing had mentioned earlier, and thought that Tank and Defense System Soul Master were similar.

"You don't even have a single Soul Ring, how are you going to withstand it?"

Zhou Qing was speechless and said something hurtful, but then encouraged, "Besides, even Tank needs to move around. You can't just stay in front of someone and not move. Your Martial Soul is a tiger. Although it is more defensive, it also has attack power and speed. So you also need to move around. While protecting yourself, you should always pay attention to Qingzhu Zhu's movements. Whoever she attacks, you should follow along."

"Although you're definitely not as fast as Qingzhu Zhu, this plaza isn't that big, so the difference isn't that significant. Besides, I guess you don't want to just be a bystander, right?"

Wang Sheng nodded vigorously and said, "I'll listen to you, Qing Ge!"

"Teacher Mo, you are Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster, and your Martial Soul is a spear. I wonder if you can throw the spear?" Zhou Qing asked.

"It's possible, but once I lose control of my Tool Martial Soul, my combat power will drop by more than one level. To get it back, I'll have to run there, and I might get surrounded by them." Mo Hen didn't understand why Zhou Qing asked this.

"Can it be re-condensed? I remember you mentioned in class that once Tool Martial Soul is released from the hand, the connection can be severed, and then the Tool Martial Soul will dissipate. However, Soul Master can actively condense a Tool Martial Soul." Zhou Qing said, "If the Tool Martial Soul breaks before the connection with the Soul Master is severed, it will cause a great backlash to the Soul Master. Although the Martial Soul can still be re-condensed and repaired, it will take at least three years."

"That's true. Actively severing the connection with the Tool Martial Soul allows you to re-condense one, but this process is very Soul Power- consuming. With my level 23 Soul Power, I can only condense it a maximum of four times, and that doesn't even include the Soul Power consumption when using Soul Skill."

Mo Hen felt that instead of having more opportunities to condense his Martial Soul, it would be better to save his Soul Power for using Soul Skill, thereby increasing his chances of winning.

Four times? That's enough.

But Zhou Qing insisted that Mo Hen do it that way.

Given Mo Hen's strength, using those two Soul Skill wouldn't significantly improve his power. It would be better for him to temporarily abandon his warrior identity, temporarily assume the role of an archer, and seize the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to his opponent.

"Me? A marksman?"

Mo Hen was somewhat doubtful of life. He had never imagined that he, a Soul Master whose Martial Soul was a spear, could actually serve as Soul Master whose Martial Soul was a bow or crossbow.

"Don't worry, Teacher Mo, you're still a warrior. You can only act as an archer when the opportunity arises," Zhou Qing said. "Also, when you throw the spear, it's best to catch the end of the spear, otherwise I'm afraid someone might get killed."

As fellow Soul Grandmaster, those with Beast Martial Soul Master do indeed have stronger physiques than those with Tool Martial Soul Master, but they are not invulnerable to blades and spears. If Mo Hen were to throw his spear with all his might and hit the target, the spearhead would likely pierce through the opponent's chest and pass through from behind.

"So I'm the most powerful one after all?" Mo Hen laughed.

"Xiao Wu, you can be a warrior or an assassin. Plus, your physique has improved recently, so you can also act as Tank. In addition, you like head-on confrontations, so your job is to attack whoever you don't like. Just be careful," Zhou Qing said.

"No problem, leave it to me."

Xiao Wu twisted her neck and immediately focused her gaze on the leader whose two Soul Ring were both at the hundred-year level.

"Romantina, you're both a support and Tank... I hope so, but I still hope that while protecting yourself as much as possible, you can use your First Soul Skill, Spiritual Impact, to inflict mental damage on them." Zhou Qing only hoped that Romantina wouldn't suddenly cause trouble, otherwise he would really lose face in public.

Perhaps Romantina was hoping for this?

"What about the other uses I've developed for my Martial Soul?"

This clearly refers to the effects of the other three Soul Skill of the First Spirit Ring.

"We'll talk about it when you're on the Second Ring Road."

The Star Luo Royal Academy Team, especially Zhong Dingxiu, must be very knowledgeable. Using Spiritual Detection and Spiritual Sharing skills at this time might arouse his suspicion.

Finally, Tang San and I...
