And after Tang San successfully mastered the use of the Eight Spider Lances, Xiao Wu, just like in the original story, used the Sky Azure Bull Python as an excuse to tell everyone how she escaped from the Titan Giant Ape and obtained her third Soul Ring.
Without Shen He exposing her, the Shrek group naturally believed Xiao Wu's lies. After all, few normal people would think that Xiao Wu was a Soul Beast.
Seeing that this Soul Ring hunting mission had ended successfully, Zhao Wuji also breathed a sigh of relief. To prevent any other accidents, he immediately led everyone back to Shrek Academy, where their special training was about to begin.
"Special training?"
Hearing Flender's arrangement, the four who had just joined the academy were naturally dumbfounded.
"It's actually going to the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City to participate in Soul Battles!"
Seeing that the others didn't quite understand, Oscar immediately explained to Ning Rongrong and the others.
"But teacher, isn't it a bit early to let them go to Soul Battles now? They've only just broken through to Soul Elder!"
Seeing Flender's arrangement, Dai Mubai's expression changed.
"You are all monsters, not ordinary people. And since you are monsters, you naturally have a monster's way of cultivating."
Flender was clearly trying to take the opportunity to make some money for his own private coffers, but he still put on an act of doing it for everyone's benefit.
"Your Martial Souls are different, and your cultivation methods are also different. The academy can only teach you how to better use your own Martial Soul, help you obtain Soul Rings, and explore the potential of your Soul Skills as much as possible. The rest is just various knowledge about Martial Souls and the situation of Soul Masters on the continent. And the most important practical experience for a Soul Master naturally can't be gained much in the academy."
As soon as Shen He heard Flender say this, he knew what he was up to. He just smiled and looked at Flender. Seeing that his little plan was about to be exposed, Flender cleverly indicated with his eyes that Shen He would get a share, and then continued shamelessly.
"The amount of practical experience at the same level is the key to determining victory or defeat. Only constant practical combat can improve your adaptability in battle as much as possible. So the Great Soul Arena is the best place for you to train your strength, and you can also quickly familiarize yourselves with the use of your new abilities after just obtaining your Soul Rings."
Of course, these words could only fool the newcomers. Dai Mubai and the others, who were all older students, naturally couldn't agree.
Training practical combat ability is indeed effective, but the probability of getting beaten is also very high. Dai Mubai, who is almost level 40, only has a 50% win rate. How could these people who have just reached Soul Elder be able to defeat those level 38 or 39 opponents?
You must know that the Great Soul Arena is divided into groups according to the number of Soul Rings, and those Soul Masters who make a living from this will not participate in Soul Battles when they have just broken through. Isn't this just purely going to get beaten and challenge their limits?
After briefly popularizing the knowledge of the Great Soul Arena to the four newbies, Ning Rongrong wanted to cling to Shen He as a support-type Soul Master, but she was rejected by Shen He with an idiotic look.
"Come on! I'm the dean of Shrek Academy now! How could I condescend to participate in Soul Battles? This is your special training! Of course, I'll be watching your performance from the audience seats."
Shen He raised his eyebrows, adopting the posture of an elder.
In fact, among Soul Masters of the same cultivation level, there are almost no opponents that he can look up to now.
If he participates in Soul Battles, he can only fight against Soul Masters at the Soul Elder level, but his current strength has far surpassed the Soul Elder level, so there is no challenge in fighting.
"You have to fight well in the Soul Battles. The battle is yours, not mine. If you don't work hard now, you will suffer a lot in the future. You don't want to be killed in a life-and-death battle in the future because you didn't accumulate experience in Soul Battles, do you?"
After saying that, Shen He ignored the others and took the lead to go to the Great Soul Arena to watch the competition. Afterwards, the others formed a team and went to the Great Soul Arena just like in the original story.
After experiencing a series of registration and waiting, it was finally time for Tang San and Xiao Wu's Sanwu Combination to appear.
"..., Two-on-two, fifth match, Dali Combination versus Sanwu Combination."
With the host's broadcast, two strong young men around twenty years old walked onto the stage. Their bare upper bodies exposed their strong muscles, showing their strength.
When these two saw Tang San and Xiao Wu on stage, they rubbed their eyes in disbelief. Even the host was stunned for a moment. To be able to stand here, they obviously had the corresponding Martial Soul level, which meant that these two masked children were real Soul Elders.
"It seems that our Sanwu Combination is really promising at a young age, reaching the strength of a Soul Elder at such a young age. I believe the audience here is also very much looking forward to seeing what surprises they can bring! Will the young Sanwu Combination be young heroes and win the game, or will the Dali Combination continue to defend their winning streak? Then I announce, the game begins!"
Although the Dali Combination was a little surprised to see that Tang San and Xiao Wu had the strength of a Soul Elder at such a young age, they didn't hesitate too much as they were battle-hardened, and directly released their Martial Souls.
Accompanied by the Rhinoceros Martial Soul's attachment, the two also immediately entered a state of combat.
So what if they're geniuses? No matter how fast they cultivate, their age is still here, so how much combat experience can they have? As long as they don't kill, even if there are forces behind them, who would care about normal Soul Battles?
The two burly men shouted at the same time, the first yellow Soul Ring lit up, and they moved towards Tang San and Xiao Wu with almost the same pace, full of pressure.
"First Soul Skill: Savage Bull Charge!"
Seeing the momentum of these two, Tang San also quickly released his Martial Soul, Blue Silver Pig, and then grabbed Xiao Wu on the side and threw her upwards, letting Xiao Wu escape the opponent's attack range.
As soon as the Blue Silver Pig was summoned, it saw two bull-like men rushing towards it with irresistible momentum, and immediately aimed its round butt at the two strong men, and the third Soul Skill, Web Restraint, was used.
With a "poof" sound, a spider web made of Blue Silver Grass was released from the Blue Silver Pig's butt, sticking to the feet of the two charging strong men.
The effect of a Soul Skill from a Thousand Year Soul Ring is naturally better than that of a Hundred Year Soul Ring, and under the Blue Silver Pig's grandmaster-level control, there is no possibility of it being broken through. After the two men's feet were restrained, they immediately fell to the ground a few meters in front of Tang San.
Control System Soul Elder!
After being controlled, that term immediately appeared in the minds of the two.
It is very uncomfortable for a Power Attack System to fight a Control System, and this is just one person. As expected of a genius from a large force! Although the Martial Soul is a pig, it is a bit strange.
Seeing that the two were interrupted by the Blue Silver Pig's Soul Skill charge, Tang San naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity, and then used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to go forward and finish them off.
