A mysterious victory
- The exam is officially open!
The names of all the candidates began to change color and mix, everyone hoped that they would come across weak rivals. Soon the names stopped flashing, there were commands with white names on one side of the screen and red ones on the other.
The trio breathed a sigh of relief because the names of Mei Wu, Lan Mengqin and Dong Qianqiu were white, like theirs.
Lan Xuanyu was upset that he couldn't summon Dong Qianqiu during the fight, because it would definitely be considered cheating.
- The draw is over. There are ten arenas available for the exam. I will tell the names of the participants and they must go up to the arena.
Very quickly, ten arenas appeared on the square, each of which was entered by examiners acting as judges.
-Arena number 1: Lan Xuanyu, Lan Shengling and Qian Lei against Li Han, Li Bin and Jiai Yu.
Lan Xuanyu smiled and whispered something to Lan Shenglin and Qian Lei. Two men grinned ominously at his suggestion.
Li Han, Li Bing, and Jiai Yu were already in the arena.Lan Xuanyu, Lan Shengling and Qian Lei, trembling like newborn kittens, went up to the arena.
Lan Mengqin turned to Dong Qianqiu and Mei Wu
- Why are they shaking so much? Are they afraid of getting injured?
Dong Qianqiu and Mei Wu nodded negatively.
- No, I fought alongside them a lot. They've never shown themselves that way.
"That's right, Shenglin has never shivered during a fight before. I think they're up to something.
Dong Qianqiu and Lan Mengqin looked at the calm Mei Wu.
- That's right! How do you know each other? You're not very talkative, you didn't have any friends at the academy apart from us.
- It happened quite by accident, I met him in the arena in the Spiritual World. He was very sociable and offered to become friends. Mei Wu said in a slightly embarrassed voice.
Lan Mengqin felt something click in her head.
- Do you like him? Than two brothers decided to take over my sisters!
Mei Wu blushed slightly and replied.
- We're too young to think about that.
In the arena, Lan Xuanyu stood in the center, with Qian Lei and Lan Shengling behind him. There were three teenagers of their age standing in front of them, they didn't stand out in any way, but they were very calm and restrained.
- There are no rules in this arena, you can use whatever you want. Let's get started! Lin Yi waved her hand and retreated to the edge of the arena.
The opponents took a step forward and were surrounded by Soul Rings.
Li Bing, who was standing in the center, was surrounded by three purple rings. Jiai Yu, who was standing on the right, was also surrounded by three purple rings. In the center stood Li Han with four purple rings.
Qian Lei's expression immediately twisted.
Li Han's team was pleasantly surprised to see the number of soul rings surrounding their rivals. Everyone had two spiritual rings. Two of them had two 100-year-old spiritual rings, the third had a pair of thousand-year-old purple rings.
Previously restrained, Li Han, Li Bing and Jiai Yu smiled.
-<<Luck is on our side today! That's why they're shaking so much.>>
The teams that were not in the arena felt envious of Li Han's team.
Bing Tianlian looked at them strangely.
-<<What are they doing?>>
Li Han didn't say anything, he wanted to finish the fight as soon as possible. After giving a command to his teammates, he released his fighting soul.
Li Han's body was surrounded by a faint wave of blue energy, similar to water. His first and second spiritual rings flashed and a huge wave appeared, gushing over Lan Shenglin and his companions.
Li Han didn't want to take any chances, so he decided to crush his rivals. He didn't trust their appearance a bit, he knew that such a weak team couldn't have gone that far.
Jiai Yu's body flashed with white light and a blue and white scepter appeared in his hand. He directed it towards the wave, his second soul ring sparkled and white lights began to appear on the wave, taking the form of a swordfish. The aura emanating from the wave instantly increased.
Li Han's Fighting Soul was the Sea Tide! A very rare type of sea soul. Jiai Yu also had a very rare fighting spirit, it is called the sea scepter, it is able to summon various sea creatures in the form of energy to attack.
Li Bin did not stand idly by. A full moon appeared behind him. The bright moon shone light on the sea wave, the tide became faster and bigger, and the swordfish were covered with moonlight.
Lan Xuanyu frowned, their little plan didn't work out.They thought that with their scared appearance they could make the opponents relax.
Qian Lei instantly activated the summoning gate, Lan Xuanyu immediately surrounded them with river grass. With a soft roar, a red armored earth dragon came out of the gate. When he saw the incoming wave, he wanted to escape to the Summoning Gate.
But at that moment, Lan Shengling grabbed him by the tail and threw him towards the sea wave. The Red Armored Dragon roared and exhaled a wave of flame. All he had to do was resist this attack.
Lan Xuanyu instantly pulled Lan Shenglin and Qian Lei towards him and created an ice pyramid surrounding them. Lan Shengling did not know what to do, his attacks had a large range of damage, he could injure Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei.
The dragon could no longer resist and was washed away by the wave, after which it overtook the ice pyramid, which instantly became covered with cracks. Lan Xuanyu activated the martial soul fusion skill. Before the physical examination, his bloodline had gone through a mutation, now the skill of merging martial souls did not absorb all spiritual energy, but only half of it.
Lan Xuanyu clasped his hands together and the ice pyramid cracked. Lan Shengling saw a small drop of water come into contact with Lan Xuanyu's hand, after which a huge wave and swordfish evaporated in an instant, only the Moon remained.
Everyone present was shocked.
Li Han, Li Bing and Jiai Yu were even more shocked.
As soon as the wave overtook their opponents. They felt their bodies filled with fear. In their eyes, Lan Xuanyu's figure began to return above them, looking down at them.
Under Lan Xuanyu's uncomprehending gaze, the pale Li Han and Jiayu retreated a few steps. While everyone was in a state of shock, Lan Shengling activated his first and second spiritual skills. The four Lan Shenglin charged at the opponents with shocking speed and knocked them out of the arena.
- The end of the match. Lan Xuanyu's team won. Lin Yi announced in surprise.
All ten battles started at the same time, but they finished first.
Lan Xuanyu was stunned.
-<<How did I do it?>>
Qian Lei ran up to Lan Xuanyu and patted him on the shoulder.
- Boss, you're amazing! You have completely suppressed our rivals!
Lin Yi stared intently at Lan Xuanyu, not only did she look at him like that, everyone present looked at him like that. He wanted to say, "I really don't know how I did it," but he swallowed the words.
At the bottom of the arena, Li Han, Li Bin, and Jiai Yu had all their thoughts in a mess.
-<<Did we really lose?>>
Lan Mengqin and Mei Wu stared at Dong Qianqiu.
- How did he do it?- they said at the same time
Dong Qianqiu shook her head stupidly.
She was familiar with Lan Xuanyu's strength. They had fought side by side many times, but she had never seen anything like it.
Lan Xuanyu, who was the culprit of this situation, was the most confused of all, he did not even have time to use the Fusion of Martial Souls. This scene was similar to the one when he fought Ye Ling Tong and suppressed her Martial Soul.
Lan Xuanyu's team descended from the arena.
After about ten minutes, all the battles of the first round came to an end. There were both winners and losers. Most of them couldn't hold back their tears, they were children after all.
Lan Shengling, Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei watched the second round of battles. In the second round, familiar faces appeared, it was Liang Shushi's team.
But as unfortunate as it was, their team was completely overwhelmed and they suffered a crushing defeat.
As soon as they left the stage, Liang Shushi almost immediately rushed to Bing Tianlian's chest, who began to comfort her.
