Assessment Begins!

Su Bai took in everyone's reactions.

He smiled slightly, ignoring Tang San, and then spoke to Ning Rongrong and the others:

"Actually, there's nothing much to say. Teacher Zhao is a Spirit Saint. If he gets serious, we won't stand a chance.

So, he'll mostly be on the defensive at the start, waiting for us to expend our energy, and using this chance to see just how strong we are."

Su Bai's tone was incredibly confident.

This statement caused Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing to nod in agreement. They knew Su Bai was right; facing a Spirit Saint, they, as mere Soul Grand Masters, had no chance of winning unless the opponent held back.

"Let's start by introducing your abilities," Su Bai continued.

Ning Rongrong spoke first:

"My name is Ning Rongrong, a Level 26 Assist System Soul Grand Master, with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda spirit. My First Spirit Ability can increase teammates' strength. My Second Spirit Ability can increase teammates' speed."

Zhu Zhuqing followed:

"Zhu Zhuqing, a Level 27 Agile Attack System Soul Grand Master, with the Hell Spirit Cat spirit. My First Spirit Ability is Hell Stab, which instantly enhances speed and attacks with sharp claws. My Second Spirit Ability is Netherworld Hundred Claws, attacking the same spot rapidly to deal high damage."

Her voice was cool and her introduction concise.

Xiao Wu spoke last:

"My name is Xiao Wu, a Level 29 Power Attack System Soul Grand Master, with the Soft Bone Rabbit spirit. My First Spirit Ability is Waist Bow, enhancing waist strength and resilience. My Second Spirit Ability is Charm, which can confuse enemies."

After introducing herself, Xiao Wu glanced at Su Bai somewhat shyly.

Tang San, standing nearby, realized he had once again been completely ignored by Su Bai.

Su Bai had only let the three girls introduce their abilities, not mentioning himself at all.

This made the anger in Tang San's chest burn even hotter.

After listening, Su Bai nodded and made arrangements:

"Ning Rongrong, provide good support for me, give me all your Amplifications. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, move around the flanks, look for opportunities to harass and sneak attack.

Don't go for a Head-on Collision. Teacher Zhao is slow, but his defense and attack are very high. If he hits you, you'll be severely injured.

Seize any openings he reveals and just wear him down. Teacher Zhao is assessing your strength, so just sneak attack."

Su Bai's words were clear and his arrangements orderly.

Tang San, standing nearby, began to tremble violently. He felt insulted.

Zhao Wuji, standing to the side, took in all the conversations and actions.

He saw Tang San's anger and also Su Bai's natural leadership within the team, becoming even more interested in Su Bai.

"Alright, let's begin."

Zhao Wuji said in a deep voice. His voice broke the subtle atmosphere in the training ground.

Su Bai took a step forward first, his right foot lightly tapping the ground. His spirit power surged within him, and golden light emanated from his body.

"Kirin Avatar!"

As Su Bai finished speaking, a majestic golden Kirin phantom flashed behind him and disappeared.

Immediately after, three spirit rings, yellow, purple, and purple, rose from beneath his feet.

A powerful spirit power fluctuation, accompanied by the kingly dread of a Kirin, instantly enveloped the entire training ground.

This dread suppressed all spirits, and suppressed Beast Spirits even more!

Zhao Wuji's expression became more serious. He hadn't expected Su Bai's Kirin Spirit to be so powerful.

Ning Rongrong followed closely, standing a short distance behind Su Bai.

"Seven Treasures Manifest Glass, Seven-Colored Glazed Tile Pagoda!"

An exquisite Seven-Colored Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared in her hand. The pagoda was crystal clear and shimmered with flowing light.

Two spirit rings, yellow and yellow, rose from beneath her feet. Ning Rongrong's noble aura instantly captured everyone's attention.

Xiao Wu leaped lightly to Su Bai's left, her body crouched.

"Soft Bone Rabbit!"

Pink light flashed around her, and a pair of furry rabbit ears appeared on top of her head.

Two spirit rings, yellow and yellow, appeared beneath her feet. Her posture was graceful, carrying a lively aura.

Zhu Zhuqing followed like a shadow, appearing to Su Bai's right, forming a pincer attack with Xiao Wu.

"Hell Spirit Cat!"

Black, shadowy light flowed around her body, and her body lowered slightly, like a hunter poised to strike.

A pair of sharp claws extended from her fingertips, flashing with a cold glint. Two spirit rings, yellow and yellow, appeared immediately after.

Tang San stood at the rear of the team, his face still showing resentment, but he also understood that now was not the time to dwell on such matters. He suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and channeled spirit power into his body.

"Spirit, Blue Silver Grass!"

Blue light lit up around him, and countless Blue Silver Grass vines grew from the ground beneath his feet, spreading rapidly.

Yellow, yellow, two spirit rings slowly rotated beneath his feet.

The five people each activated their Martial Soul Avatar, their spirit rings fully displayed. In an instant, spirit energy surged across the training ground, interweaving with light of various colors.

Zhao Wuji looked at the five students before him.

His body moved slightly, and a layer of dark yellow light rose from within him.

A layer of furry fur instantly covered his body, his physique expanded, and his muscles bulged.

"Great Strength Vajra Bear, Avatar!"

The next moment, two yellow, two purple, and three black, a total of seven spirit rings spun beneath his feet.

A powerful aura of spirit energy oppression spread across the sky.

Su Bai felt this pressure, but his heart was calm. He knew that Zhao Wuji had not used his full strength yet, and was merely putting on a show of force.

What he needed to do was to last for this incense stick while Zhao Wuji was not serious, or rather, had no chance to be serious.

Su Bai nodded slightly to Ning Rongrong behind him, signaling her to begin her assist.

Ning Rongrong understood. She raised her hands, and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda released its first beam of light. A golden light pillar landed on Su Bai.

"Seven Treasures Named, first: Power! Second: Speed!"

Su Bai immediately felt a surge of strength enter his body, and his power was amplified.

Following that, a green light also landed on Su Bai, and his speed was also enhanced.

Ning Rongrong's amplifications acted on Su Bai simultaneously, instantly boosting his combat power once more.

The battle was imminent.

Zhao Wuji did not immediately launch an attack. He simply stood in place, suppressing the five with his Spirit Saint aura.

Su Bai understood Zhao Wuji's intentions, but he did not choose to delay.

"Attack!" Su Bai let out a deep shout.

The second spirit ring beneath his feet flashed with purple light.

"Second Spirit Ability, Auspicious Kirin Body Protection!"

A golden Kirin phantom appeared behind him again, and then attached itself.

A solid golden light shield covered his entire body, and Su Bai felt his strength and defense soar.

The surrounding light shield also provided additional resistance against dark and evil attribute attacks.

Su Bai's body sank slightly, then he charged forward fiercely.

Su Bai's speed was astonishingly fast. He was like a golden lightning bolt, charging straight at Zhao Wuji.

He chose to engage in a head-on collision, utilizing the restraint his Kirin Spirit had over the Great Strength Vajra Bear to engage in close combat before Zhao Wuji could get serious.

Seeing this, Zhao Wuji's lips curled up.

"First Spirit Ability, Immovable Ming King Body!"
