The Importance of Teamwork

Qian Yu smiled faintly.

First, the third spirit ring, a purple glow.

"Third Spirit Ability—Metal Storm." The Desert Eagle switched to AK47 mode, and Qian Yu switched to single-shot mode, firing a bullet at Zhao Wuji.

Almost instantly, the bullet, carrying a piercing blade, struck Zhao Wuji's defensive shield.

The two rubbed at high speed, and the shield actually showed faint cracks.

"There's hope," Qian Yu calculated inwardly, then commanded Ning Rongrong, "Rongrong, give me an additional boost."

Ning Rongrong followed suit instantly, a 20% strength boost applied to Qian Yu's body.

Qian Yu fired again, the second bullet hitting the shield, which cracked even more this time.

Qian Yu narrowed his eyes, already having a plan.

The second spirit ring, a purple glow, "Second Spirit Ability—Sky Full of Dancing Bullets." The 98k fired towards his rear, exploding nearby.

Qian Yu was propelled towards Zhao Wuji by the blast wave.

The AK47 returned to his hand, his right arm raised, "Spirit Bone Skill—Sky-Ripping Claw."

A massive claw tore through the sky, pressing towards Zhao Wuji's shield.

Zhao Wuji was also stunned at this moment. The shield around Zhao Wuji completely shattered, and at the same time, Zhao Wuji snapped back to awareness.

"It's a Spirit Bone?" Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were also shocked by Qian Yu's trump card.

"Good kid, you actually have a Spirit Bone." Although Zhao Wuji's shield was broken by Qian Yu, he couldn't help but sigh at Qian Yu's powerful talent.

Qian Yu, having succeeded in his attack, switched back to the 98k, using the residual force from the explosion to distance himself from Zhao Wuji.

He then spun the gun in mid-air, switching to the AK47, and unleashed indiscriminate gunfire at Zhao Wuji.

"Damn it."

Dense bullets rained down on Zhao Wuji as if they were free.

Zhao Wuji still wanted to use gravity to change the bullets' trajectory, but the bullets' speed was not comparable to the speed of a spirit master like Zhu Zhuqing.

All the bullets hit Zhao Wuji precisely.

Zhao Wuji could only activate his Martial Soul True Body, transforming into the Great Vajra Bear to shield his vital areas.

Bullets struck his arms and legs.

As a Spirit Sage, although Zhao Wuji felt pain, his life was fortunately not in danger.

However, activating his Martial Soul True Body meant he had lost this match.

"Yay, we won!" Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, and Xiao Wu were immersed in the joy of victory.

Only Qian Yu himself knew that he couldn't have won this match alone.

Vaguely, he seemed to grasp something.

"Team."

In his past life, Qian Yu was a special forces king, relying on his dependable team. In this life, burdened by deep hatred, especially facing a powerful opponent like the Clear Sky Sect, how could he not need help from teammates? More importantly, he still had to find his younger siblings.

Therefore, teammates and friends were crucial for his future.

Qian Yu had already made up his mind to build his own team, no matter what.

Zhao Wuji retracted his Martial Soul at this moment.

He was not angry; instead, he was very calm.

"Alright, who can tell me what you understood from the battle just now?" Zhao Wuji's voice was booming and deafening.

"That we're very good!" Ning Rongrong said proudly after defeating a Spirit Sage.

Zhao Wuji's face darkened. He couldn't afford to offend her, being from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, so he simply ignored her.

"Zhu Zhuqing, you tell me." Zhao Wuji chose Zhu Zhuqing.

"I discovered the power of a team."

Zhu Zhuqing's voice was not loud, but it carried great weight.

It gave a sense of reliability.

"Yes, it's the power of a team. On the Douluo Continent, every spirit master has their own primary focus and corresponding weaknesses. For a spirit master to be invincible, they need to compensate for their shortcomings. But everyone's energy is limited, and they can't master all cultivation directions. Therefore, a reliable team can perfectly solve this problem for you."

"Think about it, if you were all the best in your respective areas of expertise, how terrifying would this team be?"

Zhao Wuji's voice was loud and extremely infectious, growing more excited as he spoke.

The others were also moved by Zhao Wuji's words.

Indeed, everyone has their weaknesses. Instead of spending time trying to fix their weak points, it's better to focus on their strengths and leave the rest to their teammates.

"It seems like our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect operates this way. Instead of spending time turning Ning Fengzhi into an assault or control spirit master, it's better to assist Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa, allowing them to unleash the combat power of more than two people each, achieving an effect of 1+1 greater than 2."

At this moment, Ning Rongrong had a deeper understanding of teamwork.

Zhu Zhuqing, due to her family background, also deeply understood this. If she cultivated alone, who knows when she would reach Titled Douluo. Facing such a vast family and empire, how could she possibly resist?

But if they had a group of companions behind them, and a whole sect behind those companions, then they could completely refuse them.

Xiao Wu thought of her mother. If soul beasts could unite like humans, then her mother wouldn't have been so easily hunted by humans.

Everyone gained a new understanding of the word "team."

"Very good." Seeing that everyone had a new understanding of teamwork, Zhao Wuji was very satisfied.

With a wave of his hand: "Welcome to Shrek Academy, little monsters."

"Yay." Everyone erupted in cheers.

Hearing the approval from a Soul Sage, how could they not be excited?

Qian Yu felt the same and couldn't help but smile.

This smile captivated the three beauties.

"Qian Yu, have I told you, you look really good when you smile."

Ning Rongrong was the first to tease.

Xiao Wu blushed.

Zhu Zhuqing lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Qian Yu, but she couldn't help but steal glances.

"Uh..."

After officially enrolling, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong were assigned to the same dormitory.

Qian Yu was taken to the male dormitory by Zhao Wuji.

As soon as he entered the room.

The first thing that caught his eye was a scruffy but handsome-looking young man.

"Uh, Qian Yu, let me introduce you. His name is Oscar. He's 14 years old, a level 29 Soul Grand Master of the Food System. Don't let his messy beard fool you; he's the first Food System soul master in the continent's history with Innate Full Soul Power." Zhao Wuji introduced to Qian Yu.

"Mhm." Qian Yu nodded slightly at Oscar.

Going further inside, they saw Dai Mubai guarding the unconscious Tang San, seemingly intending to wait until Tang San woke up.

"Qian Yu, this is Dai Mubai, 16 years old, level 36 Soul Elder, Martial Soul: Evil Eye White Tiger."

Zhao Wuji continued to introduce to Qian Yu.

"Mhm." Qian Yu also nodded slightly, seemingly having forgotten yesterday's unpleasantness.

Dai Mubai's expression turned cold: "I didn't expect you to actually get into the academy."

Dai Mubai said with an unfriendly tone.

"You know each other?" Zhao Wuji asked curiously.

"We happened to meet at the hotel yesterday, and there was a small conflict."

Qian Yu said unhurriedly, as if recounting a trivial matter.

Dai Mubai's expression grew worse.

Zhao Wuji understood; Dai Mubai had suffered a loss yesterday.

But there was nothing that could be done.

Just as Zhao Wuji was about to smooth things over.

At this moment, a furious roar came from outside: "Which punk dared to bully my disciple!"
