Everyone's Reactions, the Ice Empress Enters the Inner Academy
The girls' dormitory is on the fourth floor.
Wang Dong'er sat on the edge of the bed, her legs crossed, twirling a strand of light blue hair in her hand.
Xiao Xiao lay on the other end of the large bed that had been pushed together, her chin resting on the pillow, a dried fruit dangling from her mouth.
Cui Yajie leaned against the headboard, her long pink hair cascading over her shoulders, as she casually combed the ends of her hair with her fingertips.
"Ning Tian's boost today was truly outrageous." Xiao Xiao broke the silence first. "After she applied the power boost to me, the range of the Cauldron Shock increased significantly, even Chen Zifeng was shaken and staggered a couple of steps."
Cui Yajie nodded. "With the level 36 Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and all three amplifications applied simultaneously, the penetration power of my Fox Tail Needle is at least 30% stronger."
Wang Dong'er remained silent, but her mind was also recalling the battle that had taken place earlier that day.
Xiao Xiao turned her head and looked at the silent Wang Dong'er, saying:
"Dong'er, your Butterfly Goddess Slash today, combined with Ning Tian's amplification, shattered Chen Zifeng's Fifth Soul Skill. A level 57 Soul King, and you're only level 35."
"That's because he was suppressed by 40% of his strength by Snow Dance Shining Sun." Wang Dong'er's tone was calm, not excited. "In his normal state, I couldn't even touch him."
Cui Yajie chuckled and teased, "Oh, Dong'er, it's rare to hear you be so objective."
Wang Dong'er glared at Cui Yajie and gave a soft snort.
"I've always been this good, okay?"
Xiao Xiao turned over and stared at the ceiling:
"But to be honest, with Ning Tian around, the upper limit of our three combat power has been raised significantly. Before, it was difficult for the three of us to fight a Soul King, but now the four of us can hold off two."
"The key is still the class monitor," Cui Yajie suddenly lowered her voice, "Did you notice Dai Yueheng's expression when that Martial Soul Fusion Skill came out today?"
Xiao Xiao nodded, very seriously. "One Soul Emperor and two Soul Kings were directly defeated by the class monitor and Lulu's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and the class monitor said they even held back."
Wang Dong'er suddenly sighed:
"Moreover, he and Lulu are only Soul Ancestor. If Soul Ancestor have this kind of combat power, what if the two of them reach the Titled Douluo level in the future...?"
Cui Yajie and Xiao Xiao both sighed at the same time. Indeed, Dai Huabin's talent was simply too great.
The three of them had always received help from the class monitor, but they hadn't been able to help Dai Huabin much, which was really...
The room suddenly fell silent.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao spoke up, "That's why I said following the class monitor was truly the best decision I ever made in my life."
Cui Yajie nodded very seriously.
She often thought that if she and Zhu Lu hadn't been assigned to the same dormitory on the first day of school, she might not have had the chance to be with Dai Huabin.
You're really lucky.
Then she said, "Yes, we were really lucky. Let's work hard and try to help the class monitor in the future."
Wang Dong'er seemed not to have heard their conversation. She subconsciously Entanglement her hair with her fingertips, her mind filled with the image of Dai Huabin standing in the center of the Soul Fighting Arena during the day, glancing back at Zhu Lu Extreme Ice Hell White Tiger dissipated behind him.
The fourth floor is the girls' dormitory, another room.
Ning Tian lay on the bed, his hands behind his head, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Wu Feng had been asleep for a long time, breathing evenly, occasionally turning over.
Ning Tian couldn't sleep. Everything that happened in the Inner Academy's Soul Fighting Arena that day kept replaying in her mind.
He possessed the Soul Ancestor realm, the Ultimate Ice attribute, Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, and Martial Soul Fusion Skill that allowed him to overwhelm a level 64 Soul Emperor and two level 50+ Soul King, with Xue Qingyao, a level 65, accompanying him.
Even more outrageous, Mu En personally summoned him for a private meeting with the Sea God Pavilion.
How many people in the entire history of the Shrek Academy have enjoyed such treatment?
Ning Tian rolled over and lay on his side, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the edge of the pillow.
She recalled that in the Nine Treasures Pavilion when she was in first grade, Dai Huabin sat in a chair and said in a calm tone, "Your sect does lack top-level combat power, but you have money."
At the time, she felt that although these words were harsh, they were also quite practical.
Looking back now, every word Dai Huabin said has come true.
A year ago, he was in his thirties, and she thought he was a potential investment.
A year later, he reached level 45, skipping twelve levels, and was even exceptionally recruited by the Inner Academy.
This isn't just a potential stock; it's already taken off.
Ning Tian's heart suddenly raced. The phrase "giving everything" in his mother's letter now seemed not an exaggeration, but an accurate assessment.
The Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has never lacked money; what it lacks is a supreme expert who can stand at the top of the continent. And Dai Huabin's growth trajectory is already pointing towards that position.
If the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect could establish a relationship with him before he fully rose to power...
Ning Tian took a deep breath and pulled the blanket up a little.
We can't rush things. Dai Huabin isn't the kind of person who can be easily bought off by profit.
All I can do is to provide the best support in the Reserve Team so that he can see the value of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
As for the sect, I'll go for a meeting during the holiday and see how things go then.
Ning Tian closed his eyes and forced himself to fall asleep.
But she knew that the opportunity for the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to rise lay with Dai Huabin.
In the days that followed, the lives of the seven Reserve Team members completely shifted to the rhythm of the Inner Academy.
Every morning at eight o'clock, Mu Jin would wait by the Sea God Lake and escort everyone to the Inner Academy. The morning consisted of training with the Main Team, the afternoon of group sparring or individual cultivation, and dinner was served in the Inner Academy canteen.
The food in the Inner Academy was indeed much better than that in the Outer Academy.
There are seven or eight choices for staple food alone, and all the meat is made from high-level Soul Beast, which contains trace amounts of Soul Power. Long-term consumption has a nourishing effect on the physique of Soul Master.
The dessert section was so enticing that Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie couldn't tear themselves away from it every day.
"What's in this milk pudding? I feel like my Soul Power is circulating a bit more smoothly after eating it." Xiao Xiao held up her third bowl of milk pudding, looking quite satisfied.
Cui Yajie wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. "It has the juice of Spirit Milk Grass added. I've already asked the kitchen."
Wang Dong'er sat opposite, holding a piece of roasted meat with her chopsticks. She didn't say anything, but the food on her plate was almost gone.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu sat together. Zhu Lu ate her meal quietly, occasionally putting a piece of food on Dai Huabin's plate.
Ning Tian sat diagonally opposite, observing the interactions among the people at the table, silently noting down some things in his mind.
It's worth mentioning that Ice Empress's problems have also been resolved.
Ice Empress was incredibly bored staying alone in the Outer Academy dormitory. All he did every day was cultivate and space out, and his turquoise twin tails were practically bald from pulling them out.
Dai Huabin took the opportunity to Yan Shaozhe that Bing Hanyue was Xue Qingyao sister and wanted to come to the Inner Academy to observe and learn.
Yan Shaozhe was already curious about the "hidden family" behind Xue Qingyao, so he naturally did not refuse.
So Ice Empress also entered the Inner Academy. Although he was not qualified to participate in the battle, he sat on the viewing platform every day to watch the excitement and occasionally whispered a few words to Snow Empress. He lived a comfortable life.
"Huabin won again today." Ice Empress leaned on the railing, his orange-gold eyes fixed on the audience.
Snow Empress sat beside him, her posture upright, her white dress spotless. "He wins every day."
"I know, but I just want to say," Ice Empress snorted, "When do you think he'll ever reach the Soul Emperor...?"
"What's the rush?" Snow Empress interrupted calmly.
Ice Empress pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but her twin tails swayed, clearly indicating she was in a good mood.
