Chapter 63: The Strongest Healing Martial Soul
"Fifteen years old and already Rank 43?"
Everyone turned to look at Dai Mubai as if they were staring at a monster.
At this moment, Yu Tianheng himself was only Rank 39, still a step away from breaking through to Soul Ancestor, despite being a few years older than Dai Mubai.
Among the Emperor Battle Team, Yu Tianheng had the highest soul power, followed by Dugu Yan, who was at Rank 38.
What they didn't know was that Dai Mubai's actual soul power had already surpassed Rank 55.
Over the past few months, he hadn't been idle. He had been cultivating daily, and with his exceptional talent, he had directly broken through two levels.
Yet outwardly, he was still "only" a Rank 43 Soul Ancestor.
After a moment of silence, Qin Ming finally turned to Flender.
"Headmaster, since I brought my team here for training, would it be possible to have a team spirit battle with these juniors?"
Hearing this, Flender and the others glanced at Qin Ming with suspicion.
This pink-haired, honest-looking guy… was he here to show off?
"Fine. No problem."
Flender looked at Qin Ming's earnest face and nodded.
With Dai Mubai on their side, there was nothing to worry about.
After all, this was someone who could hunt his fourth soul ring alone. Could these pampered nobles from Heaven Dou Imperial Academy possibly be his match?
In Flender and the others' eyes, Heaven Dou Imperial Academy students were just a bunch of spoiled brats. How could they compare to Dai Mubai and the rest of Shrek?
Yu Tianheng and the others, after recovering from their initial shock, overheard Qin Ming's request. Yet none of them felt any fear.
Dai Mubai's soul power might be high, but that didn't mean he had superior combat experience.
Besides, apart from Dai Mubai, the oldest among the Shrek students looked about his age, while the others appeared to be only twelve or thirteen years old.
How could they possibly lose to such a group?
At this moment, Tang San discreetly approached Xiao Wu.
"Xiao Wu, be careful during the fight later."
He warned her in a low voice before turning his attention back to observing Yu Tianheng and the others.
Something about this group felt unusual to him. He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination or something more.
Hearing Tang San's words, Xiao Wu instinctively distanced herself from him, keeping a two-meter gap between them.
She was already shaped by Dai Mubai's influence, and to avoid any misunderstanding, she decided it was best to keep her distance from Tang San.
"Alright, I know."
Xiao Wu nodded indifferently, her tone cold and detached.
Tang San scratched his head in confusion. What was wrong with Xiao Wu lately? Was she still upset about him ignoring her warning when absorbing his third soul ring?
Back then, she had tried to stop him, but he hadn't listened. That must have made her very sad.
Tang San had no idea that his black hair, which should have evolved to blue, was now turning green…
In the corner, Ning Rongrong quietly observed this scene, her expression thoughtful.
Time passed quickly, and everyone made their way to Shrek Academy's training grounds.
Of course, it was just a spacious piece of open land. Shrek Academy couldn't even afford proper dormitories—how could they have an arena?
The team battle began to take shape. On the Emperor Battle Team's side, they were veterans with abundant experience.
On Shrek's side, things were more haphazard:
Team 1: Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao WuTeam 2: Ning RongrongTeam 3: Tang San
With three entire teams made up of just seven people.
"Remember, winning is secondary. Friendship comes first. Stop when you have to!"
"Understood!"
Since this was just a sparring match, there was no need to go all out.
"Both sides, release your Martial Souls! The battle will officially begin in one minute!"
Flender acted as the temporary referee. When he released his Martial Soul and floated into the air, the members of the Emperor Battle Team instantly dropped their dismissive attitudes.
This was a high-level Soul Sage! Judging from his aura, he was clearly a veteran Soul Sage, not someone who had just broken through.
But why wait a minute before starting the battle?
The reason was simple—it gave everyone a chance to introduce themselves.
With Flender's words, the aura on the Emperor Battle Team's side shifted dramatically.
"Roar…"
A mix of beastly growls and hums filled the air as seven Soul Elders unleashed their Martial Souls. Twenty-one soul rings appeared simultaneously, an awe-inspiring sight.
"Yu Tianheng, Martial Soul Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Rank 39 Assault-type Battle Soul Elder. Please advise."
Yu Tianheng's right arm transformed into a blue dragon claw, crackling with blue lightning that gave him a fierce and domineering appearance. Combined with his impressive features, he stood out magnificently.
"Dugu Yan, Martial Soul Jade Phosphor Serpent, Rank 38 Control-type Battle Soul Elder. Please advise."
Dugu Yan had a graceful figure, and her dark green hair and eyes added an exotic allure.
"Shi Mo, Martial Soul Black Tortoise, Rank 38 Defense-type Battle Soul Elder. Please advise."
"Shi Mó, Martial Soul Black Tortoise, Rank 37 Defense-type Battle Soul Elder. Please advise."
"Yu Feng, Martial Soul Wind Bell Bird, Rank 36 Agility-type Battle Soul Elder…"
"Ao Si Luo, Martial Soul Ghost Leopard, Rank 36…"
"Ye Lingling, Martial Soul Nine Heart Begonia, Rank 35 Support-type Tool Soul Elder…"
Once the introductions were complete, everyone inhaled sharply.
Good grief, their lowest level was Rank 35! This team was no joke.
Flender, Zhao Wuji, and the others looked at Qin Ming with strange expressions. Was this kid here just to show off?
Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon? Jade Phosphor Serpent? Black Tortoise?!
Were these not all top-tier Beast Martial Souls?!
Ning Rongrong turned her attention to Ye Lingling, standing at the back of the Emperor Battle Team, her face showing clear surprise.
Nine Heart Begonia?!
They had actually run into a Soul Master with the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul!
As for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon or the other Martial Souls, Ning Rongrong didn't even give them a second glance.
As a support-type Soul Master, her attention naturally focused on another support-type Soul Master.
Before the Shrek students could even introduce themselves, Ning Rongrong stepped forward to warn them:
"Everyone, be careful! Focus on the enemy's support-type Soul Master!"
"Her Martial Soul is Nine Heart Begonia. If we don't eliminate her first, the Emperor Battle Team will be unkillable."
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed. Even the members of the Emperor Battle Team looked at Ning Rongrong in surprise.
Not many people knew about the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul. This girl looked only twelve or thirteen years old—how did she know about it?
"Ning Rongrong is right. The Nine Heart Begonia is the strongest healing Martial Soul in the world. If not for its rarity, the title of 'strongest auxiliary system' wouldn't belong to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
Dai Mubai nodded in agreement.
While the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was powerful, its strength lay in attribute amplification. Its healing ability was only mediocre at best…
