Zhu Lu Takes the Stage! A Ten-Thousand-Year Fourth Ring and Ultimate Ice Stun Everyone
Mu Jin stood on the sidelines, the roster in her hand almost crumpled from being gripped so tightly.
Three assessments, two high scores and one exceptionally high score.
Xiao Xiao 120, Cui Yajie 120, Wang Dong'er 145.
These three people were all in Dai Huabin's clique, and Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie's aptitude when they entered school was only slightly above average; they were by no means one-in-a-million geniuses.
But what about now?
Two newly promoted Soul Elder at level 30 fought a thousand-year-old Soul Beast one-on-one and achieved a score that even fourth-year students might not be able to get.
Mu Jin couldn't help but glance at Dai Huabin.
How exactly does this class monitor lead his team?
She was already starting to look forward to it.
Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie were able to deliver such performances, so what about Dai Huabin himself?
And then there's Zhu Lu, who always stood quietly by his side. Zhu Lu was already Soul Elder in her first year. As Dai Huabin's fiancée, she was naturally no weaker than Wang Dong'er and the others.
What score will Zhu Lu achieve?
Mu Jin took a deep breath, trying her best to keep her expression from being too exaggerated.
Off the court, Dai Huabin glanced at Zhu Lu.
"Lulu, can you defeat the Thousand-Year Soul Beast in three moves?"
Zhu Lu tilted her head, thought about it seriously for a moment, and then smiled.
"Huabin, I only need two moves."
Dai Huabin raised an eyebrow. "Two moves?"
"Two moves." Zhu Lu nodded, her tone full of confidence.
Dai Huabin didn't ask any more questions, and chuckled, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Wang Dong'er, who was standing next to her, perked up her ears.
"Lulu, just how strong are you now? You defeated a thousand-year-old Soul Beast in two moves, really?"
Zhu Lu turned to look at her, giving her a meaningful smile.
"Dong'er, just watch closely. All I can say is, following Huabin, becoming stronger is as easy as drinking water."
Wang Dong'er scoffed.
But she didn't refute it.
This is indeed true. Dai Huabin brought her not only pressure, but also real improvement.
Take those three Ten-Thousand-Year Snow Lotus for example. If they were put in an auction house, any one of them would cause a frenzy. But Dai Huabin just casually took out three, giving one to each person, like handing out candy.
My ability to jump directly from level 31 to level 34 this time was entirely thanks to that snow lotus.
How could someone like that not be liked...?
Wang Dong'er cut off the second half of her thought.
Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly:
"Dong'er, stop being hypocritical. Our class monitor is genuinely good to us."
She counted on her fingers:
"I will definitely repay the class monitor in the future. And Lulu is right, it's so easy to improve my strength by following the class monitor."
Who could have imagined a year ago? I, Xiao Xiao, am already level 30, and after absorbing the snow lotus, it seems I still have some Soul Power left to digest. This is all thanks to the class monitor.
Seeing Xiao Xiao's eyes light up whenever Dai Huabin was mentioned, Cui Yajie couldn't help but speak up.
"Xiao Xiao, if you like the class monitor so much, why don't you just marry him?"
Xiao Xiao was taken aback, somewhat at a loss for what to do.
Cui Yajie added with a smile, "Anyway, the class monitor will inherit the White Tiger Duke Mansion in the future, so having three wives and four concubines will be standard practice. What are you afraid of?"
Xiao Xiao's face flushed red, and her voice trembled. "Yajie! What... what are you saying!"
Cui Yajie calmly brushed her long pink hair aside. "Am I wrong?"
Xiao Xiao panicked and quickly said, "Don't you like the class monitor too? Do you think I can't tell? Every time the class monitor talks to you, your ears turn red!"
Cui Yajie's smile froze instantly.
Wang Dong'er was stunned. She opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.
Ice Empress stood at the side of the group, her two turquoise ponytails swaying in the wind.
She glanced at Snow Empress.
Snow Empress's expression was calm, but she frowned slightly.
Ice Empress lowered their voice and muttered:
"Does this Dai Huabin have such great charm? How come all these human women are...?"
Snow Empress did not reply.
Ice Empress glanced at Dai Huabin beside him again, feeling that something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Zhu Lu listened to the girls' conversation and giggled.
"Okay, you can all be Huabin's wives. Anyway, we're all good sisters, so there's no question of competing for his favor."
Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie were instantly dumbfounded.
Wang Dong'er's face turned bright red.
Dai Huabin raised his hand to cover his forehead.
"Lulu, that's enough. It's not even close to being done yet, why are you starting this?"
Zhu Lu smiled and leaned closer, her voice low. "Huabin, tell me the truth, do you really not like Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Yajie at all?"
Dai Huabin opened his mouth, but couldn't bring himself to say no. How could he possibly not like it at all?
Zhu Lu knows him very well.
If he said "I don't like it," Zhu Lu could see right through him with just a look.
He saw Wang Dong'er's stubbornness and hard work, he was also aware of Xiao Xiao's sincerity and drive, not to mention Cui Yajie's intelligence and sense of propriety.
To say that I wasn't moved at all would be a lie.
But these words cannot be said now.
Fortunately, Gong Changlong's voice came in time, saving his life.
"Next candidate, Zhu Lu!"
Zhu Lu winked at Dai Huabin, then turned and walked towards the assessment area.
Dai Huabin breathed a sigh of relief.
Two seconds later, he really wouldn't know how to respond.
Zhu Lu walked to the center of the field, her back ramrod straight. Gong Changlong flipped through the information card, then looked up at her.
"Zhu Lu, which area should we choose?"
"Millennium."
Gong Changlong nodded and was about to open the floodgates when Zhu Lu added another sentence.
"Referee, please pick someone stronger."
Gong Changlong paused for a moment, looked at the shortlist in his hand, and then opened another gate.
A thousand-year-old Ice Thorn Python, its body entirely Mo Lan, slid out of the dark passage. Its body was as thick as a water bucket, and rows of translucent ice thorns protruded from beneath its scales. With each flick of its tongue, the surrounding air seemed to cool down several degrees.
The Thousand-Year Ice Thorn Python, with its ice attribute, is well-rounded in both offense and defense. Within melee range, its ice thorns act as a natural armor against damage. It is more troublesome than the previous Soul Beast.
Just as Gong Changlong was about to warn about Ice Thorn's piercing counterattack, Zhu Lu had already moved.
"Ice Shadow Spirit Cat, Possess!"
Dark Soul Power surged from Zhu Lu's body, and her figure instantly became sharp and fierce.
But what truly made everyone's pupils shrink was not her change.
These were the four Soul Rings that appeared on her body.
Yellow, yellow, purple, black.
The fourth ring, Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring. Black light flowed around her, exuding a powerful and intimidating aura.
At the same time, a chilling aura exploded from her body and spread in all directions.
It's not your average ice attribute.
That was the Ultimate Ice.
A layer of white frost quickly condensed on the ground at the edge of the venue, and the water vapor in the air was directly frozen into tiny ice crystals, which fluttered down in the sunlight.
Gong Changlong instinctively took a step back.
He was Titled Douluo- level powerhouse, but the chill still gave him goosebumps. This was definitely not ordinary ice-attribute energy.
