The Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy's Soul Fighting Arena is located in the northeast of the academy, covering a vast area.
Looking from afar, one can see an oval-shaped building, like a perfectly cut sapphire embedded in a silver-gray metal base.
This is the Great Spirit Arena, the core building in the center of the Soul Fighting District, and as its name suggests, it is also the largest Soul Fighting Arena in the academy, capable of accommodating 100,000 spectators.
However, it is only opened when major events or special activities are held.
The newly formed Soul Master Class, including the Class Teacher, only has twenty-six people in total, so naturally, such a large place is not needed. Their target is the smaller Soul Fighting Arenas around it.
Compared to the grandeur and luxury of the Great Spirit Arena, the hundreds of smaller Soul Fighting Arenas of varying sizes distributed around it are much simpler in design.
They are merely independent spaces built by enclosing them with spirit tool materials. Under the cover of spirit tool formations, they ensure the sturdiness of the venue and also allow for the option of whether to make the soul fighting public.
Ren Jun led the twenty-five students in the class to a small Soul Fighting Arena on the edge of the Soul Fighting District. The fifty-meter diameter Soul Fighting Arena could accommodate a circle of people watching on the outside, but naturally, no seats were arranged here.
The control panel could raise a barrier to prevent outsiders from seeing the scene inside the Soul Fighting Arena, but Ren Jun did not perform such an operation.
In the academy, the matter of forming a Soul Master Class was naturally no secret, and both students and teachers had varying attitudes towards it.
However, today was the first day of the Soul Master Class, and the Class Teacher brought these eight or nine-year-old students to the Soul Fighting Arena. It was clear that the upcoming battles among these newcomers were inevitable.
Many people were full of curiosity about this. They also wanted to see what kind of strength these 'geniuses' of the Soul Master Class possessed.
Soon, the area around the small Soul Fighting Arena was already surrounded by a crowd, whispering as they looked at the children around Ren Jun.
As Ren Jun spoke, the noisy sounds around them instantly quieted down.
"Are you ready? Do you really want to take on five?"
Apparently, Ren Jun's words were directed at Xu Tianyi.
Unexpectedly, so many spectators appeared, but Xu Tianyi still held his head high and confidently said, "I'm already impatient!"
Ren Jun gave him a meaningful look, then said, "Alright, those of you who want to be class monitors, step into the arena!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Tianyi took the lead and walked towards the downward stairs on the left, and the others followed him down.
The surrounding spectators heard the conversation between the teacher and students and had a general understanding of the current situation.
Most people focused their attention on Xu Tianyi, thinking that since this tall child dared to speak so 'arrogantly,' he must have some skill.
The crowd, who had originally come just to watch the show, suddenly felt a surge of anticipation.
Soon, the six people appeared in the Soul Fighting Arena below everyone's line of sight.
Xu Tianyi stood alone on one side, while the other five stood on the other side with a tacit understanding.
Kong Xuan stood behind everyone, looking silent with his head bowed.
And before the soul fighting officially began, a voice came from among the five.
"My name is Bi Jin, my Spirit is the control system's Empowering Chains, and my spirit power is level fifteen. I know a bit about Xu Tianyi; he's not easy to deal with. Let's talk about our Spirits so we can coordinate later."
Kong Xuan glanced at Bi Jin, who was speaking next to him, and felt that compared to the others, he had some leadership talent and would likely be a good control system Spirit Master in the future.
"Wang Xiao, attack system Beast Spirit, Sky-Rending Blade Mantis, spirit power level fifteen."
"Han Lingxi, support system Tool Spirit, Astrolabe, spirit power level fourteen."
"Ye Lingtong, attack system Tool Spirit, Heavenly Spirit Staff, spirit power level sixteen."
With Bi Jin leading, the others also spoke up one after another.
After Ye Lingtong finished her introduction, everyone looked at her in surprise, not expecting that this young girl was the one with the highest spirit power among them.
"Kong Xuan, attack system Tool Spirit, sky-supporting spear..."
Meeting their gazes, Kong Xuan finally spoke slowly.
Just as he was about to state his spirit power level, Ren Jun's shout came out, interrupting him.
"You can go all out; I will guarantee your safety!"
Ren Jun's flying spirit tool unfolded behind him, and he had already flown directly above the Soul Fighting Arena.
In fact, with his strength as a Spirit Douluo, even if he stood around the Soul Fighting Arena, he was confident that he could act at any time to save someone.
But because of his own experiences, he dared not be careless in front of his students, fearing any accidents.
"Soul fighting, officially begins!"
As Ren Jun's shout swept across the entire Soul Fighting Arena, the match between the two sides officially began.
As the only control system Spirit Master among the five, Bi Jin naturally took on the responsibility of commanding.
A yellow spirit ring appeared under Bi Jin's feet, and then translucent chains appeared in front of him, with mysterious runes flowing on them.
With a thought from Bi Jin, these chains instantly wrapped around the waists of the other four.
At the same time, Bi Jin also began to arrange tactics: "Han Lingxi, you stand at the back to support us. Kong Xuan, you attack from the front. Ye Lingtong and Wang Xiao, you two flank from the left and right sides respectively. If you encounter danger, I will pull you back."
Given that the few of them had not cooperated before, this arrangement was considered the optimal solution.
Therefore, the others also followed his arrangement, and no one showed an attitude of 'why should I listen to you.'
The few of them immediately released their Spirits. A miniature astrolabe appeared in Han Lingxi's palm, composed of nine metal celestial bodies that could be freely combined.
The first celestial body suddenly lit up, and then a ray of starlight flew out from this star, splitting into three in the air and falling into the bodies of Kong Xuan, Wang Xiao, and Ye Lingtong respectively.
Kong Xuan felt his spirit power increase by about ten percent, indicating that Han Lingxi's First Spirit Skill was a spirit power amplification.
Han Lingxi looked at Bi Jin, who was standing in front of her, and said with a slight apology in her eyes, "I can only apply spirit power amplification to three people at a time right now."
Bi Jin, who did not receive the amplification, did not turn his head, continuously observing the situation ahead, and said indifferently, "You've already done very well."
Yellow spirit rings also lit up under the feet of Wang Xiao and Ye Lingtong. For those selected to enter the Soul Master Class, their First spirit ring was always the optimal hundred-year match.
As a Beast Spirit Master, Wang Xiao's physical qualities were enhanced after his Spirit possessed him, and logically, his speed should have been the fastest.
However, he controlled his speed, maintaining pace with the others.
After all, the three of them were going to gang up on Xu Tianyi. If he rushed to the very front, wouldn't he be the first one to face the opponent's attacks alone?!
Ren Jun watched the situation below from mid-air. Although Bi Jin's five-person team was cooperating for the first time, their ability to organize so quickly and coordinate left a deep impression on Ren Jun regarding Bi Jin, the control system Spirit Master.
And Wang Xiao, who knew how to control his speed, also made Ren Jun look at him in a new light.
After all, they were all just one-ring Spirit Masters, and they were all only eight or nine years old.
A temporary battle, right from the start, gave Ren Jun a new understanding of his students.
The pride belonging to Shrek, hidden in his heart, began to waver again.
However, the one who surprised him the most was actually Kong Xuan!
The sky-supporting spear Spirit had already appeared in Kong Xuan's hand, but no spirit ring appeared under his feet.
Seeing this scene, Ren Jun raised an eyebrow, not expecting Kong Xuan to have mastered such a technique. This was a manifestation of extremely strong Spirit control.
He had originally thought that a young genius like Kong Xuan would disdain to gang up on someone weaker than himself with others.
He had even prepared for a scene where Kong Xuan would stand alone at the back after the battle began, waiting for the others to rush forward.
But Kong Xuan 'disappointed' him; he seemed to have no genius pride at all and was preparing to confront Xu Tianyi head-on according to Bi Jin's arrangement.
