"Alright, I agree to help hunt Soul Beasts," Yao Yu said.

"It's wonderful that Dean Yao is willing to help." Shui Qinghan immediately felt relieved upon hearing this. She then unhesitatingly took out a high-quality piece of Thousand-Year Whale Glue and handed it to Yao Yu. "Dean Yao, this is a heavenly treasure that can strengthen a Soul Master's physique."

With that, Shui Qinghan briefly explained the method of using the Whale Rubber and the precautions involved.

"I never expected Whale Rubber to have such a use." Yao Yu clicked her tongue in amazement. After accepting the Whale Rubber, she added, "Dean Shui, you do not mind if I verify whether it is genuine, do you?"

"Of course. Please, go ahead," Shui Qinghan said with an unconcerned smile.

She had not lied, and what she had given was genuine. She practically wanted Yao Yu to inspect it.

"By the way, I am curious. Why did Dean Shui not seek out Thunderclap Academy and Elephant Armor Academy, fellow Elemental Academies, and instead come to me?" Yao Yu asked curiously.

"Thunderclap Academy and Elephant Armor Academy are backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Elephant Armor Sect. Only Plant Academy, like our three academies, is a purely academic institution." Shui Qinghan did not hide anything and answered frankly.

"I see." Yao Yu nodded slightly, somewhat understanding Shui Qinghan's choice.

She was only one step away from breaking through to Title Rank. If she sought help from Thunderclap Academy or Elephant Armor Academy and the sects behind those two Elemental Academies learned of it, there would likely be further complications.

As the two spoke, the match on the Soul Battle Platform had already been decided.

Mu Yunman's Azure Vine Martial Soul could not withstand Shui Bing'er's near-Ultimate Ice low temperatures.
