Yu Xiaogang pressed the curled edge of the paper back against the table.
He leaned back in his wheelchair, a thick blanket across his chest. Every few sentences, he had to pause to catch his breath.
"Blazing Fire Academy is different from Elephant Armored Academy. They won't give you time to look for an opening."
Tang San stood beside the table.
"Teacher, I've read their files. All seven are fire-attribute Soul Masters, and their core is Huo Wu, a control-type Soul Master."
"And Huo Wushuang."
Yu Xiaogang tapped the name at the top of the list.
"The One-Horned Fire Tyrannosaurus. His frontal assault is no weaker than Dai Mubai's. Once Huo Wu disrupts your formation with her Resisting Fire Ring, he'll be the first to charge at you."
Dai Mubai braced both hands on the edge of the table.
"Then I'll stop him."
"You won't hold him for long."
Yu Xiaogang turned to Tang San.
"Blazing Fire Academy's formation revolves around Huo Wu. As long as she remains on the field, the other six can concentrate their flames. What will you do?"
"Let them concentrate."
The room fell silent for a moment.
Ma Hongjun spoke first.
"Third Brother, you're not planning to stand there and let them burn you, are you?"
"Two Immortal Herbs transformed my body. Ordinary flames can't hurt me."
Tang San arranged seven wooden tokens in a semicircle, then placed the token representing himself in the center.
"Blazing Fire Academy knows Blue Silver Grass fears fire, so they're bound to focus their attacks on me. Once I draw both Huo Wu's control and Huo Wushuang's assault, you can cut off the support on either flank."
Xiao Wu immediately shook her head.
"You coughed up blood just this morning."
"I've recovered sixty percent."
"You call sixty percent recovered?"
