Choosing the Team Members (II)

Each of the five who remained had distinct strengths. Not one was mediocre, and each filled a crucial gap in the team.

The first was Yang Ke.

He looked neat and clean, with delicate features and a rather lean build. Standing among the crowd, he resembled a gentle scholar, without the slightest air of dominance.

But his martial soul was the complete opposite of his appearance—the Giant Spirit Shield.

It could grow or shrink freely, condensing into a small round shield to withstand tremendous pressure at a single point or expanding into an enormous barrier that covered the entire team. Its defensive range was immense.

He was a level thirty-five Soul Elder with three soul rings in the standard yellow, yellow, purple configuration, and his foundation was astonishingly solid. Exceptionally levelheaded, he never rushed or grew impatient with his cultivation, nor did he complain when teammates made mistakes. He was the most dependable frontline tank a team could ask for.

The second was Li Jiaojiao.

Petite and round-faced, she looked sweet and docile. At first glance, it was easy to mistake her for a little girl who could be pushed around.

In reality, she had a fiery temper and fought with ferocious dominance, never holding back. She was unquestionably the team's brutal Power Attack specialist.

Her tool martial soul, the Vajra Staff, delivered fierce, forceful strikes with explosive power and exceptional defense-breaking ability. Her job was to charge head-on into enemy formations and forcibly tear open their defensive lines.

She was a level thirty-four Soul Elder with three soul rings, also yellow, yellow, and purple. In close combat against opponents of the same rank, she had almost never come off worse.

The third was Bai Ning.

She was a classic icy beauty, with cool features and a perpetually indifferent expression.
