As darkness fell, dean stood in the square looking at the students in front of him
Then after a while the rest of them who were running joined in
"Oscar, have you finished twenty laps?"
Oscar did not dare to look directly at the dean, but bowed his head and said
"Dean, we have finished the courses."
"I asked the three of you, not just you and Zhang Yong."
Oscar turned his head to Ning Rong, and she was also looking at him with her innocent eyes
He gritted his teeth and said:
"Yes, we're all done running."
Flender smiled an evil smile, to say the least
"Very well, Oscar, I didn't expect you to have such camaraderie, come here."
Oscar's face revealed a wry smile but he did not look again at Ning Rong Rong, with large steps he stepped forward to stand in front of Flinder.
Flender slowly raised his right hand and placed it on Oscar's shoulder
"I greatly appreciate your spirit of camaraderie. In this case, you will run another twenty laps. Let me take a look at how deep your affection is. If you don't finish running, there is no need to eat. I've shut down your spiritual energy. Now go."
Without saying anything, Oscar started running away
Zhang Yong walked up to dean and said:
"Dean, I would like to share Oscar's punishment."
"Why this"
"I will have to bear part of the punishment If I hadn't distracted Oscar He would have paid more attention to Ning Rong Rong."
The dean closed his eyes for a second, then said:
"You may, but you will run with weights."
Zhang Yong nodded to the dean and went after Oscar
The dean had secretly watched the three of them, while Zhang Yong and Oscar were running, Ning Rong Rong had run away to Soto City and had fun there and then returned to running with the others.
Zhang Yong caught up with Oscar and ran alongside him
"What are you doing here?" Oscar asked as he looked at Zhang Yong next to him
"I share the punishment with you. Didn't I tell you that we are brothers?"
Oscar smiled gently, "Haha, okay then, little brother, don't worry, your big brother will take good care of you."
Zhang Yong sneered, "Oh, you seem to be getting used to this, don't worry brother, I will help you too."
Zhang Yong put his hand on his belt and took out a book from it and gave it to Oscar, "Take this, it may be of good use to you."
(1000 points were deducted for copying the "Five Elements Technique" skill book)
Oscar extended his hand to stop Zhang Yong, "No, no, I can't take advantage of my younger brother like this."
Zhang Yong laughed at Oscar's comment, "However, I still insisted. My grandfather used to say: 'If you find someone who you can consider your brother and friend, you must cherish him.' So if you consider me your brother, take it."
Without any choice, Oscar took the book from Zhang Yong's hand, "Your grandfather seems to be a great man, is he a spirit master as well?"
Naoto shook his head, "No, he's just an ordinary person. However, he remains Someone I want to become like"
Not long after, they heard a loud call that was Dai Mubai's
"Oscar ,Zhang Yong return back"
The two stopped simultaneously and walked towards Dai Mubai
"What's the matter? Did the dean change the punishment?"Naoto spoke, panting heavily
"Oscar, go to Ning Rong Rong's side."
Dai Mubai spoke as he pointed in the direction of Ning Rong Rong's residence
Oscar immediately headed to Ning Rong, and Dai Mubai stayed with Zhang Yong
"what happened"
"Nothing really, Ning Rongrong got angry and started crying and locked herself in her room so the dean asked me to find Oscar."
Naoto's weight suit was destroyed and he received ten status points, but he asked to keep it at least so he would be out of sight.
Zhang Yong and Dai Mubai returned to the arena as soon as they saw everyone present. Flender gestured with his hands:
"Let's get started, follow me"
All the while Flender maintained a fast pace, currently noticing the gap between the students
He was followed exactly behind his back by Dai Mubai, right behind him was Zhou Ziqin. Right behind her were Tang San and Xiao Wu. Behind them were Zhang Yong and Yuan Ling. Then behind them was Fatty Ma Hongjun.
Slowly a city appeared on the horizon, it was Soto City
From Shrek Academy to Soto City was not very far, when they were close to reaching the southern gate of Soto City, Flinder's speed slowed down, allowing the students behind him to catch up. Soto City located within the Palak Kingdom would not suffer from any outside threat, so this city gate remained open all day long. The eight smoothly entered the city walls.
Despite the otherwise dark sky, the situation in Soto City was lively
They couldn't help but watch and enjoy the bright appearances
They were walking behind Flinder. The place was crowded with street vendors who appeared selling snacks or small trinkets.
For Naoto, he only saw such lights in the circus when his grandfather took him when he was young. He had a kind of longing for those times, but what is done is done and he will live his new life.
Flounder suddenly stopped walking
And think out loud
"There's still some time, follow me."
Speaking as he brought the students into an ordinary street-side café, they all sat around the table and Flender ordered eight cups of the cheapest tea for them.
Xiao Wu looked at the tea in front of her and frowned:
"Dean, first class won't be here, right?"
Flender said:
"Of course not the place for your first semester is there."
Flender pointed his finger outside the café. According to the direction of his finger, he was pointing to a wide and long building with a height of more than a hundred meters.
Dai Mubai's expression changed, and in a low voice he said:
"Dean, are you making them go there on their first day?"
"Remember, you are all monsters, not ordinary people. Since you are monsters, you must cultivate brutally."
"Everyone's skills are different, the academy can only teach you how to use your skills better, obtain better rings, and provide you with combat experience."
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun looked at each other, not daring to say a word. They obviously knew the place, but the others showed puzzled expressions.
Flender said:
"Buildings similar to this one can only be possessed by Lord level cities.
It can be said that its size is a sign of the wealth and power of the city and nation. Such buildings are known as the Great Spirit Square. Furthermore, they will use the name of the city in which it is located. That is why it is called the Great Spiritual Soto arena."
"The so-called Great Spirit Arena is a place for fighting with spirits, or in other words a place for fighting spirit masters. Whether it is from the Sky Dou Empire or the Star Lu Empire, they both have places like this, the spirit arena decides the prosperity of the nation."
Tang San immediately frowned
And he said:
"Isn't the Soul Masters the most noble profession, why are there places like this that expose the matter like monkeys in a cage?"
Flender shook his head.
"No, you are wrong, although I also do not like places like the Great soul arena, I have no choice but to admit that it's an important place that fully reflects the value of the Soul Masters.
Originally created by the seven famous clans across the continent, it is not subject to any imperial power. It is just another third power. Soul Masters who make their names in the Great Soul Arenas have become big celebrities. Not only can one obtain enormous benefits, one can also obtain... The utmost status, and you are allowed to kill here and do not have to fear that other powers will pursue you if you kill their disciple there."
"When you enter your first battle, you will receive a badge, after that through victories you will collect points, and when you reach a certain level, the badge will be promoted, and the lowest rank is the iron badge."
As he spoke, he paused and looked at the seven in front of him
"Your mission before graduation is to obtain a silver badge."
Then Flender looked at the sky outside
"It's almost time"
With that, the eight placed tips on the table and led everyone to the Great Spirit Court
When they arrived, the place was an oval-shaped building, similar to the Colosseum from Greek times. From the inside, it was divided into twenty-four squares with stands that could accommodate thousands of people, and above them were ten boxes for VIPs.
Registration was simple, pay ten gold coins, fill out the form, and then test the strength of the spirit
There were three styles of fighting: individual, duo, and groups
After registering, the participating Soul Masters were gathered in a spacious hall to rest while waiting for their turn
The twenty-four arenas themselves were divided into areas, the battle area, life-and-death combat, and Zhang Yong's gambling
The proportion of each area was different. The battle area keeps you alive even if you lose, but you will die in the other areas, and even the betting areas are all in the large square located in the middle, which is called the Spirit Lord Square.
At first, Dai Mubai refused to participate with Zhang Yong because he was a supportive spirit master, but after a few attempts, he was persuaded by Tang San.
The team then gathered around Dai Mubai
"Guys, according to the rules, you can participate in one battle per day, but you can fight in different modes, so I advise you to engage in bilateral battles."
Xiao Wu turned to Tang San and said:
"Tang San, how about forming a team with me, that way we can get more experience points early."
Tang San nodded and then turned his head towards Dai Mubai. Dai Mubai knew what he wanted to say
"Xiao San, there is a dual battle registration office, you and Xiao Wu go and register."
Tang San nodded and went with Xiao Wu to register
Dai Mubai coughed slightly and then turned towards Zhang Yong
"Xiao Yong, it would be dangerous for you to fight by yourself, so I advise you to engage in one-on-one combat as well, this way I can take the burden off my shoulders."
Zhang Yong nodded to Mobai, that's when Yuan Ling gently pulled down his clothes
"How about you start a team with me?"
Yuan Ling was the type of person who would have trouble getting along with new people unless there was someone she knew around her, and even in the academy, she had shared rooms with Xiao Wu, so all that remained was for her to form a group with Naoto.
"Okay"
The two of them headed after Tang San and Xiao Wu
After Tang San registered, it was their turn, the two of them walked up to the receptionist
"The subscription fee is ten gold coins. If you win one battle, you can get ten gold coins."
Zhang Yong placed the coins on the table. The receptionist collected the money. Since they had already registered, they only needed to show their badges.
"Please tell me the name of your group."
The two turned and looked at each other. They needed a name for their group so the commentator could introduce them to the battlefield.
Zhang Yong: "What do you want to call him?"
Yuan Ling: "What about chung?"
"No objection." Zhang Yong didn't really care about the name, it was all the same to him
"Chung is good, you are registered now." The receptionist gave the badge. On the two badges, Chung's name was engraved.
They returned to the rest and Xiao Wu was gone
"Where did Xiao Wu go?"
Yuan Ling looked around and saw no trace of Xiao Wu
"Xiao Wu's singles match has begun. Let's head to the viewing area below the stage."
Xiao Wu was the first to take to the stage among the seven people against someone called Qing bao, and the rest naturally chose to watch the battle. Led by an employee, they arrived at the viewing area below the stage. Next to the fighting platform was a private area Where it was possible to get a full view of the platform.
The arena was an area twenty meters in diameter
Because they came together, the seven were set to fight in the Fourteenth Spirit Arena for individual matches
The stands were empty
Zhang Yong, who was bored because he knew the outcome of the match, did not seem to have any interest in watching, so he went to one of the corners of the room and sat down to cultivate
After some time , after xiao wu , tang san , zhu zhuqing and yuan ling fights it was zhang Yong's turn
When he opened his eyes, he immediately got up ,He crossed the spirit corridor and stepped onto the ring
A person stood in the middle with a swallow-shaped robe, with a distinct voice that said clearly:
"Next, in the third match in a one-on-one battle, two Great Soul Masters
The first one with zero wins and zero losses. The Spirit Master of the Support Branch with the Little Tree Spirit. Zhang Yong will today face the Spirit Master with the Flame Hedgehog Spirit. Qin Lin, with a record of fifteen wins and twelve defeats, I wonder who will win today."
The audience stood a little shocked. It was surprising that a Spirit Master from the Support branch would fight in a one-on-one battle. This branch was known for its weakness in individual confrontations, so it was targeted first in any group fight.
In the partner group, Dai Mubai couldn't help but ask, "Will Xiao Yong be okay?"
Tang San nodded, "Zhang Yong will be fine, he may have lost to Master Zhao but that's only because of the difference in soul level If the opponent is of the same rank as him, then there is no doubt that he will win"
There was a great distance between the two parties,
Qin Lin laughed as she looked at Zhang Yong
"Little brother, I advise you to withdraw, I hate to hurt your handsome face."
Zhang Yong looked at her with a look of disgust and disgust, then held his forehead and said in a low voice
"I met a moron in this place, it doesn't matter."
Qin Lin looked at Zhang Yong with a look of surprise and weakness, "Aren't you going to unleash your fighting spirit, I'm warning you."
Zhang Yong stood straight as a spear and looked at her contemptuously, he had already thought of something to do
"Are you going to talk all day or are you going to fight?"
Anger flashed in Qin Lin's eyes and she immediately showed two spirit rings and screamed
"Spiritual power comes first: the shower of thorns."
Immediately, several flaming spikes appeared flying towards Zhang Yong
Zhang Yong smiled slightly and shook his head, the audience was waiting in anticipation to see what he would do
Zhang Yong started to walk sideways, but instead of walking forward, he was walking backwards. It was as if an invisible hand was pulling him back. Every time he walked forward, it was like a dance. The thorns crossed beside him and did not touch him. If anyone saw this sight, they would already know what it was. It was a king's move. Music Michael Jackson Moonwalk
Zhang Yong smiled and said:
"Thank you Michael Jackson"
(Host earns 771 Surprise Points)
When no thorn touched him, Qin Lin was blinded by anger and immediately activated her second soul ability
"Second Ability Thorn Spear"
Immediately a fiery spear made of thorns appeared in her hands, she grabbed the spear and launched it towards Zhang Yong
When he saw him, Zhang Yong executed the second step, his feet seemed to stick to the ground, then he leaned forward extremely sharply, crossing the spear and not hitting Zhang Yong.
(The host earned 264 like points)
"Well I guess it's time"
Naoto stood up straight, rushed towards Qin Lin, and without even knowing it, Zhang Yong kicked her in the stomach and sent her flying across the ring, then she hit the wall and fell to the ground, unconscious.
Everyone had shock on their faces, three extremely strong kids appeared in the ring tonight
Then the presenter announced
"Support Branch Spirit Master Zhang Yong defeated his opponent Qin Lin, his record now is one win and zero losses and Qin Lin's record is fifteen wins and thirteen losses."
