Yu Xiaogang: The Wish Angel Isn't Fit to Carry the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's Shoes!

Only after they reached the field did Wang Dong finally come back to his senses.

Why was Ye Chen still by his side?

Had he really been willing to become a control-type Soul Master for his sake?

At that thought, a faint light shone in Wang Dong's eyes as he looked at Ye Chen...

As for Huo Yuhao, he had naturally gone off to sell his grilled fish.

Before obtaining his second martial soul, Huo Yuhao's strength was nowhere near the top at Shrek Academy.

Without using heaven-tier combat techniques or being possessed by a ghost, Huo Yuhao couldn't even beat Wu Feng.

Of course, Huo Yuhao wasn't worried about this assessment.

Even if things didn't work out in the Martial Soul Department, the Soul Guidance Department was willing to take him in.

However, over these three months together, Huo Yuhao hadn't gotten along particularly well with his classmates.

The reason was simple: whenever Zhou Yi singled out students for a scolding, Ye Chen would step forward to speak up for them.

Yet every time, Huo Yuhao would jump in and side with Zhou Yi.

As a result, the students of Class One all cursed Huo Yuhao behind his back, calling him Zhou Yi's lapdog.

Huo Yuhao, meanwhile, pinned all the blame for his classmates ostracizing him on Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, just you wait! Once I have my second martial soul, I'll defeat you fair and square!"

Had Ye Chen heard that, his heart would probably have blossomed with joy.

He was waiting for Huo Yuhao to go obtain the Ice Empress so he could seize the chance to snatch her away first.

On the field, after all three had introduced their abilities, Xiao Xiao took the initiative to ask a question.

"Class monitor, what strategy are we using for the matches?"

At her question, a teasing smile curled the corners of Ye Chen's mouth.

"No strategy. We'll just fight our way straight through!"

"But I heard the outstanding students in the other classes have formed elite teams. They're all aiming for the championship, and just like you, class monitor, they're three-ring Soul Elders," Xiao Xiao said.

"Relax. Their level is far too low. They can't possibly be our match. As long as I'm here, the championship is ours," Ye Chen said confidently.

"Well then, let me weigh up Shrek Academy's freshmen."

Outside the Sky Screen, in the Spirit Hall Era, Yu Xiaogang couldn't hold back when he saw how arrogant Ye Chen was.

"Seriously, what are you so cocky about? Other teams have three-ring Soul Elders too. Do you really think you're invincible?"

The next day,

Shrek Academy's assessment area was beside the Soul Fighting Zone.

After the groups were assigned that morning, the assessment officially began in the afternoon.

During the ten round-robin matches, teams from the same class wouldn't face each other. They would only face students from other classes.

That meant Ye Chen and Huo Yuhao wouldn't be matched against each other.

This left Yun Ming deeply disappointed.

Still, Yun Ming wasn't in a hurry. They were both Shrek students, after all. Sooner or later, they would face each other.

More than nine hundred people participated in the freshman assessment, but only one hundred and fifty groups-four hundred and fifty people-would be allowed to stay as official first-year students and continue their studies.

In the first few matches, Ye Chen's team won almost effortlessly.

Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong were both extremely strong themselves. Sometimes, Ye Chen didn't even need to act.

Their opponents were already finished.

After several days of matches, the top sixty-four teams were soon selected to enter the second round, the knockout stage.

In their first knockout match, Ye Chen's trio secured an easy victory and smoothly advanced to the top thirty-two.

Elsewhere, thanks to his heaven-defying first soul skill, Huo Yuhao also successfully fought his way into the top sixty-four under the lead of two Soul Grandmasters, but fell in the match to advance to the top thirty-two.

However, Ye Chen wasn't interested in Huo Yuhao at this stage, so he hadn't gone to watch his match.

As a result, Yun Ming still hadn't gotten to see Huo Yuhao's strength.

Yun Ming: "I just want to see the gap between him and me. Why is that so hard?!"

Today, in their match to advance from the top thirty-two to the top sixteen, Ye Chen's trio finally encountered a worthy opposing team.

As the others entered the arena, Ye Chen naturally recognized them at a glance.

Leading them was Ning Tian, the young sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. And the red-haired girl beside Ning Tian should be Wu Feng, unless he was mistaken.

If Ye Chen remembered correctly, back in the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, those two had...

Just as Ye Chen looked toward Ning Tian, displeasure immediately appeared on Wu Feng's face.

"Hey, hey! What are you staring at? You act like you've never seen a girl before," Wu Feng snapped.

"I've seen girls before, but this is my first time seeing one as weak as you." When Ye Chen saw that Wu Feng was actually more arrogant than he was, how could he tolerate it?

"Since you're three girls, I'll give you a chance. I won't use my martial soul! If you can last ten minutes, I'll count it as your win." Ye Chen didn't take his opponents seriously in the slightest.

The boosts from his soul power level and soul rings alone were enough for him to teach these girls a lesson.

Outside the Sky Screen, Tang Hao heard those familiar words and didn't register them at first.

"Wait, why are you using my lines?!"

Meanwhile, within the Sky Screen,

"What did you say?! We don't need you to go easy on us!" Wu Feng's face flushed scarlet with anger.

"Fine, then. If I use my martial soul, you might not even last a minute," Ye Chen said confidently.

At that moment, seeing the explosive tension between the two teams, the proctor said, "Both sides, enter and introduce yourselves."

"Freshman Class Nine, Wu Feng. Level twenty-five power attack-type Battle Soul Master."

"Freshman Class Nine, Nanmen Yun'er. Level twenty-four agility attack-type Battle Soul Master."

"Freshman Class Nine, Ning Tian. Level thirty-one support-type Tool Soul Elder."

Within the Sky Screen, Ning Fengzhi's attention was completely drawn over when he heard Ning Tian's surname and the words "support-type."

"Her surname is Ning? Could she be a descendant of my Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

"I wonder whether the curse of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul has been broken ten thousand years later," Ning Fengzhi said expectantly.

Ning Rongrong's martial soul had already evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Logically, that curse should already have been broken.

On the other side, Ye Chen and the others also announced their names.

"Freshman Class One, Wang Dong. Level twenty-four power attack-type Battle Soul Master."

"Freshman Class One, Xiao Xiao. Level twenty-two control-type Battle Soul Master."

"Freshman Class One, Ye Chen. Level thirty-four control-type Battle Soul Elder."

Every time Ye Chen announced that he was a control type, Wang Dong's expression grew a little awkward.

When Wu Feng heard that Ye Chen was a control-type Soul Elder, a mocking look appeared on her face. "You're just a control-type Soul Master. What are you so cocky about?!"

She was a power attack type! As long as she got close, she would have a chance to take Ye Chen down!

Once both sides had finished announcing their names, the proctor shouted, "Begin!"

As the proctor's words fell,

Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong released their martial souls at the same time and charged toward Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er.

Both sides immediately clashed, and just then, Ning Tian, standing in the distance, extended her right hand and spoke.

"Seven treasures turn, revealing glazed tiles."

Outside the Sky Screen, Ning Fengzhi even wondered whether he had misheard.

"Seven treasures turn? Why isn't it nine treasures turn?"

Elsewhere, upon seeing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul, Yu Xiaogang immediately typed into the chat box.

[Yu Xiaogang: With the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul, isn't victory guaranteed? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is the number one support martial soul!]

At that moment, determined to vent all the anger he had suffered earlier, Yu Xiaogang even declared arrogantly,

[Yu Xiaogang: Even if you include every healing-type martial soul and food-type martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is still the number one support martial soul!]

[Ye Lingling: ?]

[Ya Li: ?]

[Yun Ming: Have you heard of the Wish Angel martial soul?]

[Yu Xiaogang: Wish Angel?]

[Xu Xiaoyan: What are you, some primitive caveman? You don't even know about the Wish Angel?]

[Yu Xiaogang: I don't care whether it's some Wish Angel or any other angel. It isn't even fit to carry the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul's shoes!]

The moment Yu Xiaogang said this, he thoroughly ignited the fury of countless Soul Masters from the Dragon King Era, who immediately unleashed a torrent of abuse at him in the barrage comments.
