My Goal Is Dai Weisi and Yu Tianheng
First, my Innate Soul Power when I awakened my Martial Soul in this life was actually zero?
Still, that's understandable... I did die once, after all, and now I've been reborn.
Second, this little fox is a Nine-Tailed Fox??
Lin Luo looked down. Now that Qian Renxue had left, the little pink fox boldly hopped over and rubbed affectionately against him.
Lin Luo picked the little fox up and examined it closely.
"Awoo~"
The little fox gazed adorably at its little master.
Both little ones were cute enough to make people gush blood from their noses.
The little fox was beautiful, with pink fur on its back, white fur on its chest, and golden markings on its forehead.
When it got excited, its two big ears would spring upright in an instant.
But why release it into the Star Dou Great Forest after raising it until it has nine tails?
Lin Luo couldn't quite understand.
But to obtain Innate Soul Power, he just had to do as instructed.
If his Innate Soul Power wasn't level 20, his fussy great-grandfather would definitely start yapping nonstop again.
At level 20, his Innate Soul Power could at least shut him up.
As for the task of drawing a portrait of Bo Saixi, that was genuinely difficult.
For one thing, Lin Luo didn't know exactly what Bo Saixi looked like. The anime he'd watched in his previous life was all fake.
Take Qian Renxue, for example. The real Qian Renxue was a hundred times prettier than her anime counterpart, and more importantly, there was the matter of her bearing.
A two-dimensional character could never truly represent a real person.
Secondly, he couldn't draw... It looked like he'd have to find time to learn from Qian Renxue.
The rare metals went without saying. Finding them in advance would make forging weapons much more convenient in the future.
Most crucial of all was the fifth special task: joining hands with Qian Renxue to defeat a Titled Douluo.
That Titled Douluo also had to genuinely intend to kill them.
In that case, the Titled Douluo couldn't be someone from Spirit Hall.
Most importantly, completing this task would grant him eight levels of Innate Soul Power.
Judging the difficulty by the reward, the fifth task was probably extremely difficult.
Lin Luo climbed out of bed as he pondered. He had to go to Spirit Hall Academy; today was the day of the class team selection.
Since he was going to take part in the Empire Freshmen Exchange Conference, he had to take first place in today's class team selection.
At the freshmen exchange conference, defeating the freshmen teams from the two great empires would earn him three levels of Innate Soul Power.
I have to get them!
Lin Luo crawled toward the door, and the little fox bounced along behind him. Its leaps were so light and graceful that they were like a dragonfly skimming the water.
But Lin Luo spoke in a serious tone. "Yiya!"
The little fox sat where it was, its big, round eyes fixed on Lin Luo.
It understood what its little master meant and stayed there as punishment. Looking a little dejected, it let its upright ears droop.
Lin Luo crawled out without looking back and shut the door behind him.
He probably wouldn't have time to grind steps today.
To be honest, Lin Luo was a little worried, because today would be his first real fight since his rebirth.
Although the strongest of his opponents had only one ring, those little brats definitely wouldn't pull their punches with first place in the class team selection on the line.
Lin Luo checked all the rewards he currently had in stock. Very few of them dealt damage, but some were quite tricky and could probably catch opponents off guard in a real fight.
He couldn't help letting out a cold snort.
My ultimate targets are Dai Weisi and Yu Tianheng, not you bunch of scrubs.
Spirit Hall Academy.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Su Tanjie, a grade director, knocked on the door of the academy head's office.
"Come in."
"Headmaster, all the students from Class One are here. The matches are about to begin."
"Oh?"
Diyala immediately set aside what he was doing, his aged face full of interest.
"Have Mailun wait, and summon all the grade directors and first-year homeroom teachers to watch. I'll personally preside over the matches."
"Yes, Headmaster!"
Su Tanjie immediately ran off to see to it.
Diyala excitedly rose from his seat, not forgetting to mutter, "Lan Yang, oh, Lan Yang, your grandson is only a few months old and about to enter the battlefield for the first time. Aren't you even coming to watch? I'm really looking forward to it."
At the training ground.
It was class time, so there weren't many people on the training ground to begin with, and some of the other classes' outdoor lessons had also been canceled at short notice.
Diyala had arranged all this the previous evening.
To be honest, Diyala could tell that Lan Yang was very reluctant to mention how his grandson had gotten in through the back door.
Though he'd heard that His Holiness the Pope had held the baby, Lan Yang was definitely keeping the fact that the baby had gotten into the academy through the back door from her.
So, as his friend, he had also done him a favor. Before the Empire Freshmen Exchange Conference, it was best not to let the rest of the academy know that Class One had a baby student.
Then, at the Empire Freshmen Exchange Conference, when the baby truly shone, he would announce that the baby was a student of Class One. That would make everything aboveboard.
Even if His Holiness the Pope learned that the baby had gotten in through the back door, she would let it go out of appreciation for talent.
Of course, Diyala had gone this far because he appreciated talent too.
He genuinely looked forward to seeing what Lan Yang's grandson could do. He believed the little fellow would not disappoint him, that he would be the brightest star at the exchange conference and win back the face Spirit Hall Academy had once lost.
All ten first-year homeroom teachers, the academy's six grade directors, and Headmaster Diyala arrived at the training ground one after another.
Class One had six teams in total.
Today's selection tournament had three rounds. In the first round, the six teams would draw lots and fight in pairs, leaving three winning teams.
Of those three teams, the one that finished its first-round match fastest would receive a bye and advance straight to the third-round final.
The other two teams would fight in the second round, and the winner would face the team that had received the bye in the final.
Those were the rules of the selection tournament. They were very simple.
Next came the draw for the first round.
Lin Luo rode on Xie Yue's shoulders as Xie Yue walked over to the wooden box, picked it up, and raised it above his head.
"Brother Baby, you draw. We trust your luck."
"Okay~"
Lin Luo spoke in his baby voice.
He reached his chubby little hand into the box and drew a two.
Their opponent in the first round would be the team that drew a one.
When they saw which team had drawn one, Lin Luo's seven-person team immediately cheered, because their opponents were the weakest team of all!
Hu Liena said, "Leave the first round to me, Yan, and Xie Yue. Luo Ya, use your Jade Bell to control them. Miao Duoduo, Baby Yiyi, and Sai Kaka, the three of you don't need to fight."
The first-round matches soon began.
Outside the arena, Su Tanjie smiled at Lin Luo, who was riding on Sai Kaka's shoulders, and said, "There's no suspense in Hu Liena's team's first round. They should get the bye straight into the final."
Their homeroom teacher, Mailun, nodded. "That's right. Their toughest opponent is Xu Wenqiang's team. The real show will be the third-round final."
"Oh?" Diyala said. "What's special about that team?"
Hearing the headmaster's question, Mailun hurriedly answered respectfully:
"Headmaster, everyone on Xu Wenqiang's team is level 19, and Xu Wenqiang himself is level 20, though he doesn't have his Second Soul Ring yet. Overall, they're stronger than Hu Liena's team."
"After all, Miao Duoduo, Luo Ya, and Sai Kaka are really dragging Hu Liena's team down."
