Chapter 176 Level 48! Encountering Three Senior Students from the Inner Courtyard Upon Emerging from Seclusion
On the platinum tiger's body, in addition to the original light blue ice crystal patterns, a faint golden halo began to appear.
It was a golden color that carried an aura of holiness and majesty. When combined with the killing intent of the White Tiger Martial Spirit itself, it not only did not conflict, but instead gave rise to a kingly and domineering aura.
The chilling cold of extreme ice and the sacredness of light began to achieve a delicate balance in his Martial Spirit.
Zhu Lu, on the other side, also sensed the earth-shaking changes within Dai Huabin's body through the connection of their Martial Spirit fusion.
After guiding the light bloodline within Dai Huabin, Electrolux instructed Dai Huabin to meditate and cultivate diligently.
The Golden Tree is rich in the element of light, which is of great benefit to Dai Huabin's bloodline.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu then continued their cultivation by fusing their Martial Spirits and stabilizing their soul power.
...
In the blink of an eye, another half month has passed.
A full month has passed since Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu entered the Golden Tree Meditation Room.
There are only half a month left to prepare for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament.
"Boom!"
A powerful surge of soul power erupted from Dai Huabin's body, causing a ripple in the life force within the meditation room.
Level 48!
Dai Huabin slowly opened his eyes. A golden light and a blue light flashed and intertwined in his pupils before disappearing.
He could feel that his soul power had not only increased in level, but its essence had also become more solid and substantial.
Zhu Lu, on the other side, also finished her cultivation. Her soul power had also increased significantly, and she had steadily stepped into the late stage of level 43.
Within a month, both of them broke through to the next level; such a cultivation speed was truly terrifying.
"It's time to go out; the Soul Master Competition is about to begin." Dai Huabin stood up and stretched his limbs.
Zhu Lu nodded obediently and followed behind him.
The two pushed open the heavy wooden door.
...
Poseidon Island, Inner Courtyard Battle Arena.
"Third Soul Skill, Might of the Cauldron!"
With a shout, Xiao Xiao unleashed the light of the three Soul-Suppressing Cauldrons, which pressed down on Chen Zifeng and Yao Haoxuan opposite them with immense pressure.
On the other side, under Ning Tian's triple boost of "strength, speed, and soul," Wang Dong'er transformed into a dazzling butterfly shadow, engaging in a fierce battle with Ma Xiaotao's phoenix flames.
"Bang!"
After the sparring session ended, the group withdrew their Martial Spirits, their bodies drenched in sweat.
"Phew, I still can't last more than a few moves against Sister Tao." Wang Dong'er muttered somewhat unconvinced.
She's now level 36, and with Ning Tian's assistance, her combat power is approaching or even surpasses that of an average Spirit Master. Yet, when facing Ma Xiaotao, she still feels constantly restrained and can't last more than a few moves.
Xiao Xiao walked over to her side and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
"I wonder when the class monitor and the others will come out. It's been almost a month."
Cui Yajie chimed in, "Yeah, if he doesn't come out soon, the competition will be about to start."
Just then, Ma Xiaotao walked over. She was dressed in a red, sexy outfit and had a fiery figure. Hearing their whispers, she smiled and said:
"What's the rush? If you calculate the time, they should be out today. Mu En only gave them a month."
Just then, on the other side of the arena, three figures attracted everyone's attention.
The woman at the head of the group wore an elegant white dress, her long, black hair tied back. While not exceptionally beautiful, she possessed a gentle and dignified air, with a calm and composed demeanor that gave off a warm and approachable feeling.
To her left was a tall, red-haired woman. Her red outfit accentuated her toned and athletic figure. Her eyes were bright and sharp, and she exuded a heroic and spirited aura.
The woman on the right was dressed in a blue dress, with a cool and aloof temperament and beautiful features. Just by standing quietly, she exuded a sense of distance that kept people at a distance.
It was Zhang Lexuan, the teacher leading the team in this competition, along with teaching assistants Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo.
Looking at the several panting girls in the arena, Wu Ming spoke quickly and directly:
"These are the girls from the reserve team? They have good talent, but they lack practical experience."
Han Ruoruo didn't speak, but just observed quietly.
Zhang Lexuan smiled gently:
"They've only been in their second year for a short time, so their performance is already very good. I'm more curious about their captain."
The high regard that Mu En held for the boy named Dai Huabin was something she had never seen before.
"A prodigy," "Amazing comprehension," "Shrek's future hope."
These words, spoken by Mu En, carried immense weight.
Upon seeing the three, Ma Xiaotao quickly went to greet them: "Senior Sister, Sister Wu Ming, Sister Ruoruo."
Zhang Lexuan nodded and asked, "Has Junior Brother Huabin not come out of seclusion yet?"
"It should be soon," Ma Xiaotao said, glancing at the sky. "Come on, I'll take you to the Sea God Pavilion. Maybe we'll run into them there."
Upon hearing this, everyone became interested.
Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and the others exchanged glances and immediately followed.
They also wanted to be the first to see what kind of "surprise" their class monitor, who always created miracles, would bring them after a month of seclusion.
...
The wooden door under the Golden Tree was slowly pushed open, and a gentle breeze carrying the fragrance of grass and trees wafted in.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu walked out side by side. After a month without seeing the sun, the sunlight outside made them both unconsciously squint.
"Lulu, I'm level 48 now."
Dai Huabin stretched his body gently, feeling quite pleased.
He could clearly feel that the soul power within his body was surging like a river, more than twice as powerful as it had been a month ago.
Deep within the bloodline of the White Tiger Martial Spirit, a faint wisp of newly born light, though weak, was like a spark, giving the entire Martial Spirit an extra layer of sacred depth.
"I've reached level 43, late stage too," Zhu Lu said with joy.
The feeling of her strength rapidly improving while following Dai Huabin made her feel incredibly at ease.
The two walked along the bluestone path, through the ancient buildings of the Sea God Pavilion, and arrived at the open space in front of the pavilion.
As soon as he stepped out the door, Dai Huabin stopped in his tracks.
A large group of people were standing in an open space not far ahead.
The women were almost all women.
Ma Xiaotao's fiery red outfit and striking figure were the most eye-catching features.
Beside her, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, Cui Yajie, and Ning Tian were all looking in this direction.
Wang Dong'er's long, light blue hair shimmered in the sunlight. When she saw Dai Huabin, she subconsciously puffed out her chest, but pretended to be indifferent.
Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie looked at him curiously, as if trying to see some changes in him.
Ning Tian stood at the back, simply smiling quietly.
What truly caught Dai Huabin's attention were the other three women standing next to Ma Xiaotao.
The woman at the head of the group wore a plain white dress without any patterns, yet she exuded a dignified and elegant air. Her long, black hair was simply tied back, and her face was gentle, her demeanor as serene as an ancient well without ripples.
She stood there quietly, yet naturally became the center of everyone's attention.
Dai Huabin guessed her identity almost immediately.
Zhang Lexuan, the top student of the Inner Courtyard.
To her left was a tall, red-haired woman.
The red outfit clung tightly to her lithe and powerful body, its lines both fluid and explosive. Her eyes were sharp and bright, and her entire being was like a blazing flame, brimming with fighting spirit.
Without a doubt, this should be another "active volcano" on par with Ma Xiaotao, the Golden Crow Saintess Wu Ming.
(Wu Ming, comic version)
The woman on the far right wore a light gold dress and was extremely beautiful, but her temperament was completely different.
Dai Huabin also guessed her identity: Han Ruoruo, the top control-type soul master in the Inner Courtyard.
(Han Ruoruo, comic version)
"Oh, you've finally figured it out."
Upon seeing the two, Ma Xiaotao immediately flashed a big smile and quickly stepped forward to greet them.
"If you don't come out soon, we'll all think you're going to spend the New Year inside."
As she spoke, she punched Dai Huabin in the chest without any hesitation.
Wang Dong'er and the others also gathered around, chattering and asking all sorts of questions.
"Class monitor, what level is your soul power?" Xiao Xiao asked curiously.
"You seem to have gotten a lot stronger again," Cui Yajie chimed in.
Before Dai Huabin could speak, Ma Xiaotao answered for him: "Is that even a question? There must be another breakthrough. You'll find out soon enough."
As she spoke, she took Dai Huabin's arm and led him to Zhang Lexuan and the other two.
"Come, come, let me introduce you." Ma Xiaotao's tone carried a hint of pride.
"This is Zhang Lexuan, the chief senior sister of Shrek Academy's Inner Courtyard, who is leading our team in this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament."
"This is our teaching assistant, Sister Wu Ming."
"This is also a teaching assistant, Sister Ruoruo."
Following her introduction, Dai Huabin nodded to the three people in turn.
"Senior Sister, Sister Wu Ming, Sister Ruoruo."
Zhu Lu followed obediently behind, greeting them softly.
Zhang Lexuan looked at Dai Huabin gently. Was he the "demon" that Mu En had mentioned?
