Xu Tianyi came from a good background; he never lacked anything since childhood.
His Spirit was also excellent, the top-tier Beast Spirit, Purple Bright Heaven Extinguishing Dragon.
His First Spirit Skill, "Dragon Splendor Flash," was quite good for an attack system Spirit Master.
Moreover, he himself was sufficiently diligent, possessing the courage to face stronger challenges and a determination to constantly improve.
But why didn't Kong Xuan see his appearance in the original work?
Was it because he died prematurely due to an accident?
The Sun Moon Empire's Crown Prince, Xu Tianran, was most adept at dealing with his own brothers; a cousin was still a brother.
However, Xu Tianyi's father, Xu Guozhong, seemed to be allied with Xu Tianran.
It was also possible that, like Xu Guozhong, he was killed in the massive explosion caused by Huo Yuhao.
Throwing these jumbled thoughts to the back of his mind, Kong Xuan finally spoke: "Xu Tianyi, your biggest problem is your mindset. Your talent and strength have cultivated an arrogant personality in you. In combat, looking down on your opponent can easily lead to suffering losses."
Regarding this point mentioned by Kong Xuan, Xu Tianyi was indeed experiencing it deeply now.
He had originally thought he would be the top student in the class, but at this moment, he couldn't even defeat Xu Wei, the weakest of the other three people in the Soul Fighting Arena.
"Since you've joined the Soul Master Class, your future opponents won't just be your classmates, but also Shrek Academy!"
Upon hearing the words "Shrek Academy," Xu Tianyi's expression clearly showed some fluctuation.
These five words, for Spirit Masters of the Sun Moon Empire, were like a mountain pressing down on their heads; no one didn't want to overturn it.
"There, even among those of the same rank, your current strength is nothing remarkable."
Xu Tianyi didn't question how Kong Xuan knew that information about Shrek Academy; he merely gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, adding another reason for his efforts.
"Besides daily cultivation, I think what you should do most is improve your physical fitness."
"As a Beast Spirit Master, your physical fitness is already good. Even if you can't absorb a thousand-year spirit ring for your Second Ring, increasing its age limit is always a good thing."
Saying this, Kong Xuan looked at Xu Wei again: "You're the same; go suffer a bit more in the gravity room when you have time. It will be beneficial for your future cultivation."
Xu Wei nodded repeatedly: "Brother Xuan, don't worry, I'll go to the gravity room with you every day from now on to cultivate."
Xu Tianyi remained silent, but Kong Xuan's words kept echoing in his mind.
In that instant, he actually developed an obsession with a thousand-year Second Ring!
Although the allocated time for the Soul Fighting Arena hadn't expired, the group decided not to fight anymore and left early.
Their lives then returned to the daily routine of the academy.
Kong Xuan also had to admit that Ren Jun, this Class Teacher from Shrek, was conscientious and highly skilled.
Some of the cultivation ideas he proposed were nothing to Kong Xuan, but for the other students, they were like a shortcut guiding them through a fog.
As for practical combat, the class organized it almost every few days.
The combat methods Ren Jun devised based on each person's Spirit and physical fitness also significantly improved the students' practical combat abilities in a short time.
Unbeknownst to them, the Soul Master Class had been established for over a month.
Today, after finishing morning class as usual, Ren Jun did not immediately announce dismissal but instead said he had something important to announce.
The gazes of the twenty-five students in the class focused on his face, awaiting his next words.
Ren Jun's fingertips tapped out a dull sound on the podium, and he looked around at everyone, saying: "Next semester, there will be a Soul Master Class exhibition match, with the competition format being three-person team battles!"
The Soul Master Class, of course, referred to them.
Since the order from the Hall of Worship was issued, the Sun Moon Empire had seen a surge in free Spirit awakening, and indeed, many exceptionally talented individuals were discovered.
There was naturally more than one Soul Master Class like the Royal Soul Engineer Academy, and now, these newly formed Soul Master Classes were to hold a competition next semester!
The students in the class all had varying expressions; some were eager to try, while others were rather unenthusiastic—
At this moment, the Class Teacher's voice came again: "Find your own teammates. Before class tomorrow, report the list to the class monitor."
Having said that, Ren Jun turned and left the classroom.
Ren Jun did not directly group the students based on their Spirit characteristics using his authority as Class Teacher; instead, he let them choose for themselves.
This wasn't because he, the Class Teacher, was too lazy, but because teammates chosen by the students themselves should at least be familiar with each other, making coordination easier later on.
Moreover, this team formation was only temporary and would be adjusted later. As for whether such casual team formation would lead to them losing in the exhibition match?
Ren Jun truly hadn't worried about this problem, after all, Kong Xuan was there!
After Ren Jun's figure disappeared from everyone's sight, the previously quiet classroom instantly erupted into a lively discussion.
Xu Wei looked at Kong Xuan, whose expression was as usual, and chuckled: "Brother Xuan, how about you and Sister Ling take me, and we form a team directly?"
The three of them were quite close in class, so forming a team directly was normal.
But regarding Xu Wei's suggestion, Kong Xuan did not immediately agree, instead smiling and saying: "No rush, let's see how the other students choose."
Without a clear answer from Kong Xuan, Xu Wei felt a bit uneasy, but he didn't ask any more questions.
Regarding team formation, the students in the class were broadly divided into two types.
One type had no absolute pursuit of victory; these people sought out classmates they usually got along with.
The other type aimed for better results in team formation; these people would seek out those with strong abilities.
However, when it came to strength, the strongest in the class was naturally Kong Xuan.
But now, besides Xu Wei, not a single other person had come over to invite him.
This was also due to Kong Xuan's strength being too great, so strong that he seemed to be on a different level from everyone else, causing hesitation whenever they thought of him.
As a control system Spirit Master, Bi Jin had always considered himself the brain of the team.
This wasn't his arrogance, but rather that he indeed had the ability to integrate his teammates.
He belonged to the second type of person, one who was very eager for victory; his requirement for teammates was that their strength must be high!
So the first person he thought of was naturally Kong Xuan.
Casting his gaze towards the window seat, Kong Xuan merely sat quietly, forming a stark contrast with the surrounding noise.
After a long internal struggle, he still didn't have the courage to walk forward.
And just as he was about to give up, he saw Xu Tianyi appear before Kong Xuan.
When it came to the desire for victory, who in the class could surpass Xu Tianyi?
Among the many students who set their sights on Kong Xuan, besides Xu Wei who had the advantage of proximity, Xu Tianyi was the first to actually take action.
Xu Tianyi looked at Kong Xuan and directly asked: "Can I team up with you?"
Normally surrounded by people who flattered him, Xu Tianyi, who grew up amidst praise, actually didn't know how to get along with others.
Seeing that Kong Xuan didn't answer, Xu Tianyi said again: "I know that no matter who you team up with, you won't lack me, an attack system Spirit Master, but I want a chance."
In Xu Tianyi's view, his sister Kong Ling would occupy one spot among Kong Xuan's teammates.
The remaining spot would likely be Xu Wei, as they not only had a good relationship but also Xu Wei, an agility-attack system, didn't overlap in function with others.
But even knowing the hope was slim, Xu Tianyi still stood here at this moment.
Just as he said, even if there was a slight chance, he wanted to try.
Sensing the anticipation and determination in his tone, the genius who was once so arrogant as to want to take on five by himself now seemed to have taken on Kong Xuan's form.
Kong Xuan smiled and asked:
"You want to team up with me?"
