Chapter 298 Battle Strategy (Subscribe Request)_1

Qian Yu was stunned. Hadn't these three just shown fear on their faces?

Why had they changed so quickly?

"Let's not talk about Martial Souls for now! There's someone watching us from above!"

Ling Ling and Zi Hao, upon hearing this, thought Qian Yu was joking, as it was normal for him not to use his Evil Martial Soul easily, so they didn't press further.

Zi Hao spoke up, "Then what about our assessment tomorrow?"

Ling Ling looked at Qian Yu and said, "Qian Yu, you are the strongest among us, so you distribute the tasks."

Qian Yu nodded and then asked, "Well, Ling Ling, Zi Hao, first tell me about the effects of your soul skills. I can't use my Martial Soul in the assessment tomorrow unless absolutely necessary!"

Ling Ling pondered and said, "My First Soul Skill is Binding, which can spread the Bamboo Green Vine like a net to restrict the opponent's movement. My Second Soul Skill is Stab, which allows the vines to surge up from the ground and attack the opponent."

Zi Hao scratched his head, looking embarrassed, "I only have one soul skill, Rhinoceros Transformation! My body grows rhinoceros armor scales, which increases my defense by ten percent and my speed by ten percent."

After listening, Qian Yu quickly envisioned a combat mode in his mind. "Hmm! I think I understand now."

He spoke again, "For tomorrow's assessment, I'll be the main attacker, Ling Ling will support from the rear, and, if possible, use the Bamboo Green Vine to coil around my legs for pulling. When there is a control-class Soul Master among the opponents, use the Stab soul skill appropriately. And Zi Hao, you just need to keep protecting Ling Ling."

"You both can do that, right?"

It could be said that Zi Hao's soul skill enhancement was somewhat weak. Ten percent increase in defense and speed was essentially negligible!

It wasn't realistic to have him take on damage!

Ling Ling and Zi Hao nodded seriously after hearing the plan, "We can!"

Qian Yu had assigned them the easiest tasks. If they couldn't do well even in this, they would be unworthy of being students at Shrek Academy!

Qian Yu smiled again, "Good! Let's start practicing now and get a feel for the proficiency of your soul skills."

...

On the other side, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong had both finished introducing their Martial Souls and were intently looking at Xiao Xiao...

Xiao Xiao, slightly nervous, said, "My First Martial Spirit is the Three Lives Soul Suppressing Cauldron, primarily an integrated offensive and defensive Martial Soul!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong frowned slightly, "Offense and defense integrated, but we still lack control!"

Without control, they were very likely to fall into a passive state and not be able to counterattack effectively!

Huo Yuhao also pursed his lips, "My spirit eyes only have one soul skill... indeed, lacking control is somewhat problematic!"

Seeing Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao looking slightly troubled, Xiao Xiao tentatively said, "Actually, I have another Martial Soul that can control."

Huo Yuhao looked at Xiao Xiao, surprised, "Xiao Xiao, you actually have Twin Martial Souls!"

Wang Dong thought to himself, "Twin Martial Souls, I did not expect that besides me, there was another Twin Martial Souls bearer in our class!"

He then smiled lightly, "Xiao Xiao, the control duty for tomorrow's assessment is yours!"

Xiao Xiao, upon hearing this, looked into Wang Dong's eyes that were gleaming...

She said firmly, "Mhm!"

She would prove herself!

...

On Lake Heart Island of Sea God's Lake, the enchanting figure lying on the bed, revealing patches of fair skin that incited infinite daydreaming, slowly opened her enticing eyes as if they could bewitch and devour one's soul.

It was none other than Ma Xiaotao!

She rubbed her somewhat groggy head, then slowly got up...

Ma Xiaotao's gaze carefully inspected her body and saw a cluster of greyish-white Ghostly Flame burning continuously in the palm of her hand...

Her Beautiful Eyes narrowed, "This is... an extremely Evil aura!"

The fragments of what had happened before began to flood back to her mind...

She remembered that she had been somewhat unable to resist the evil fire, so she soaked herself in ice-cold water. Afterwards, it seemed like she had a collision with someone and then fell into a coma...

An elderly voice slowly rose, "Xiao Tao, have you woken up?"

Ma Xiaotao slowly took off her mask, revealing a face so beautiful it was breathtaking...

One would never have expected such an astonishing visage beneath such a common name...

Ma Xiaotao's eyes dimmed as she said, "Mhm!"

The elderly voice spoke again, "Xiao Tao, do you know? Because of your evil fire this time, you almost killed three outer courtyard students."

Ma Xiaotao's pupils shrank sharply, "What? How could that be?"

Kill three outer courtyard students?

And who was that person who had blocked her before?

She couldn't remember at all; her memories were very blurry!

Ma Xiaotao pursed her thin lips, "I... I thought I could suppress the evil fire, but I still couldn't resist..."

After a while, the elderly voice expressed a bit of surprise, "Hmm? Xiao Tao, you don't seem to be affected by the evil fire anymore?"

Ma Xiaotao realized something upon hearing this and said with a hint of joy, "Hmm? It seems... I really am not suppressed by the evil fire!"

Then, she turned over her palm, and it appeared that a gray-white flame inside her had devoured the evil fire!

"Xiao Tao, what's that gray flame in your hand? Could it be that your flame has degraded?"

Ma Xiaotao shook her head and conjured a ball of intensely hot flame in her other palm!

Ma Xiaotao frowned, "This gray-white flame has an evil aura, but it seems to be continuously devouring the evil fire inside me!"

The elder in white approached Ma Xiaotao, looking at the gray flame, "A pure evil aura? Could it be that there's an evil Soul Master lurking in Shrek Academy?

Suddenly, as if realizing something, he exclaimed, "No! I've heard that there is indeed a little monster with an Evil Martial Soul in the outer courtyard of Shrek!"

Ma Xiaotao slowly turned around and said, "I want to see him!"

The elder in white said solemnly, "Xiao Tao, don't rush! That little guy is under Elder Xuan's watch; he won't get away! You should first stabilize your own condition before you go!!"

Seeing that the elder in white said so, Ma Xiaotao quickly sat down cross-legged to stabilize her breath...

...

When Qian Yu returned to the dormitory, he found that Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong had already come back...

He said with some surprise, "Yuhao, Wang Dong! How come you guys are back so early?"

Shouldn't they be collaborating a bit more?

Huo Yuhao turned his head and smiled, "Qian Yu, I'll tell you quietly, our Xiao Xiao actually has Twin Martial Souls!"

Wang Dong, hearing this, couldn't help but hold his forehead, "Idiot, Yuhao, why did you tell Qian Yu? He's very likely to be our biggest competitor for the championship"

Huo Yuhao then exclaimed in shock, "Hiss... I forgot that Qian Yu isn't in the same group as us!"

With Qian Yu's terrifying strength, even if his teammates weren't up to par, he could probably carry them to a top-ranking position!

Moreover, if nothing unexpected happened, there was a high chance they would face each other in the finals!

Wang Dong's pinkish-purple pupils shimmered with light, "Qian Yu, we'll just wait and see. Moreover, because of your Evil Martial Spirit, you shouldn't be able to use your spirit in the assessment, right?"

Qian Yu narrowed his eyes, "Wang Dong, you guessed that!"

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao said suavely, "Qian Yu, don't blame us for using soul skills to bully you at that time!"

Qian Yu slowly turned his back, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly, "We shall see..."
