"..."

The eyes of Tang Wulin and his group were drawn involuntarily toward Gu Yue, witnessing the fusion of the three elements: ice, fire, and wind.

That magnificent elemental gale...

It was so powerful it made them want to kneel!

"The first match is over."

It was at this moment that Lu Li appeared beside them, his calm voice reaching their ears.

"Yes, Teacher Lu Li!"

The group walked over obediently, while Gu Yue on the field leaped gracefully, bolstered by the wind attribute, and was the first to reach his side.

"In the battle just now, apart from Gu Yue..."

"All of you fought like a complete mess."

Lu Li first glanced at Gu Yue, then turned his gaze toward the boys, his face cold and his tone indifferent.

"..."

Tang Wulin and the others lowered their heads one by one, clearly aware of how useless their previous actions had been.

In this battle against the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Gu Yue's participation rate in the team effort was a full 99%, while they...

Had barely played any role at all.

"In this fight, only Zhang Yangzi's Dark Sky Curtain bought some time for Gu Yue, and as for the rest of you..."

"All I saw was you acting like clowns."

"One was biting his teeth so hard they were about to shatter, and the others were sent flying one, two, three times. You were even weaker than I imagined."

Lu Li spoke slowly, and as the group listened to these words, they felt even more embarrassed. By contrast, Gu Yue, standing to the side with a smile on her face, stood out like a crane among chickens.

"Zhang Yangzi performed well this time; keep up the good work. Now, moving on..."

"Wulin, let's start with your issues."

"The vine-like transformation of your Blue Silver Grass is the foundation that allows you to transcend being a typical Blue Silver Grass Soul Master. It can be used for control and for attack, but when facing targets with higher cultivation that you cannot withstand..."

"It can also serve as a form of auxiliary distraction."

Lu Li looked toward Tang Wulin and said calmly.

"Aux... auxiliary?"

Tang Wulin was stunned, clearly not understanding what was meant.

"Wulin, don't listen to him!"

"How could Blue Silver Grass ever be used for support?"

At this very moment, Tang San, residing within his mind, was practically incensed. Using Blue Silver Grass for support was an absolute joke!

Control-type was the only proper path!

As for support, how could that even be possible!

"I initially thought this child had the potential to become a god, but it turns out he is just a mediocrity, not worth using..."

"Shut up."

Listening to Tang San's incessant muttering, a cold glint flashed in Tang Wulin's eyes. He was listening to his teacher, Lu Li, give a lecture; what right did this outsider have to interrupt?

Is it your place to speak, Old Tang?

What are you, anyway, to be pointing fingers and giving orders?

Teacher Lu Li would never harm him, whereas this despicable, shameless, low-life Old Tang was the reason for every disaster he had faced since meeting him!

Tang San: "..."

Unfilial son, truly an unfilial son!

"Your Blue Silver Grass is tougher than anyone else's, and its flexibility is more than double that of an ordinary one. For you, the abilities of the Blue Silver Grass are far more versatile."

"In individual combat, you can use Blue Silver Entanglement on a single opponent, but in team battles, whether facing one person stronger than yourself or multiple..."

"You can adopt measures of interference and distraction."

Lu Li, naturally unaware that Tang San had silently begun to harbor a grudge against him, continued to speak.

For Wulin, before his Blue Silver Grass evolved into the royal bloodline, focusing on control and interference-based support was an excellent decision.

It wasn't that he hadn't considered having him focus on life-healing, but at this stage, there was simply not enough life energy within his martial soul...

"Blue Silver Has Spirit, endless and ever-flowing."

"Your Blue Silver Grass is excellent. By using it to guide and pull during combat, you will become an indispensable presence in the team and bring more convenience to the battlefield. Do you understand?"

"..."

"I understand, Teacher Lu Li."

Listening to Lu Li's words, Tang Wulin's emotions remained turbulent for a long time; he could understand exactly what Teacher Lu Li meant.

Just as the other party had said, if he had provided more interference during the match and drawn more of the Tyrannosaurus Rex's fire, his companions would have had more opportunities to fight.

This was naturally the interference-support path the other party had mentioned.

Compared to methods like Blue Silver Entanglement that were instantly cut through, Lu Li's advice was simply excellent.

At the same time, what touched Tang Wulin the most was the other party's statement that his Blue Silver Grass was great.

Throughout his journey, he had endured countless times where his martial soul was mocked. When he first enrolled at Hongshan Academy in Aolai City, others constantly called him "Blue Silver Grass kid," but only Big Brother Lu Li was different.

Only he treated him like a genius!

He was different!

Always different.

Old Tang, you have a lifetime of learning to do!

"Next, Xie Xie."

"Yes!"

Hearing Lu Li speak, Xie Xie immediately raised his head. His cold, handsome little face was ready; he was waiting for the other party's advice!

"Your problems are mostly due to your martial soul, which I can't explain in a sentence or two. I will find you separately when there is an opportunity later."

"For now, what you need to do is seize every opportunity, wait for the interference and crowd control from Tang Wulin and Zhang Yangzi, be sharp, and look for your own openings..."

"I believe you can do it."

Lu Li looked at him and said slowly.

He couldn't give this child much substantial advice because his flaw was his innate martial soul.

A dagger martial soul.

Although it possessed some dragon attributes, when facing Xiao Ba, it was suppressed by a pure, top-tier sub-bloodline, which actually acted as a negative attribute.

Unless a way to evolve the martial soul prematurely was discovered, it would be very difficult for Xie Xie to achieve a qualitative improvement at this stage.

"Yes, Teacher Lu Li!"

Xie Xie took every word the other party said to heart. Be sharp, increase speed—he understood!

At the same time, he also took to heart the compliment the other party gave him; he was great!

Receiving this praise made him feel quite gratified.

"Wei Xiaofeng, like Wulin, you haven't found your own positioning. In the team, by relying on Green Shadow Strike, you are actually a better pulling character than him."

"You also have the opportunity to become a rhythm master who controls the entire field. I believe in you."

Lu Li said calmly.

"..."

"Yes, Teacher Lu Li, Yes, sir!"

Wei Xiaofeng was beyond excited at this moment, as if he had been injected with adrenaline, and he nodded respectfully.

A rhythm master!

Teacher Lu Li said he was a rhythm master of crowd control!

He! Was! A! Master!

Just because of the other party's trust in him, he would definitely make something of himself in this life!

"And Wang Jinxi, you possess the powerful offensive means brought by the Bone Dragon King martial soul; you must maintain your offense."

"Although you were no match for Xiao Ba, this was not because of your own issues, but rather the suppression of a higher-ranking dragon lineage. You are still the top-tier power-attack type in your age group."

"Pay attention to improving yourself later. Of course, your problem lies more in your mental power. I have looked at your files; if you don't improve your mental power, you will regretfully get stuck at the Soul Elder level."

Lu Li looked toward Wang Jinxi's position and said slowly.

"Thank you, Teacher. I will work hard..."

Wang Jinxi nodded silently. He had always been this introverted, but listening to the other party's guidance, the unnaturalness on his face had long since vanished.

"Zhang Yangzi, I think you are already clear on your positioning. The advantage of a flight-type martial soul combined with crowd control—what you need are teammates with whom you have synergy."

"And on this point, they will not let you down in the future."

"Yes, Teacher!"

Zhang Yangzi nodded with a smile. He had originally been worried that the teacher would blame Wang Jinxi, so seeing that the other party had received praise, he couldn't have been happier.

"Gu Yue."

"Hmm?"

Hearing Lu Li's voice, Gu Yue immediately looked at him, a beautiful smile already appearing on her face.

In reality, this was a rare moment of secret satisfaction for her, the Silver Dragon King. Hehe, Big Brother Lu Li...

It's time to praise me.

Praise me, praise me, praise me!

She had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

"Wait a minute..."

"Why am I acting like such a simp?"

Recalling the romance novels she had read in the human world while in the guise of Na'er, Gu Yue's expression faltered. She subconsciously reined in her smile, her face turning serious.

But it only lasted for a split second.

The next moment, her smile returned as usual, even carrying a hint of "this is how it should be":

It was only right for Lu Li to praise her.

After all, what she wanted wasn't just his praise.

She wanted the person himself.

"Hmph..."

Gu Yue let out a soft huff in her heart. Later on... she would even make him kneel down to praise her!

Lu Li was different from anyone else.

"..."
