Chapter 3227: Age

Gui Mei, who was paying attention to the battle platform, couldn't help but comment, "Their Martial Souls are all sea soul beasts, it seems they're all from Sea God's Island!"

"I didn't expect the overall strength of this place to be so strong!!"

Even within the Tiandou Empire, Soul Sages were extremely rare; most had joined various powers and seldom had the chance to appear in the public eye!

Yet, one of the arenas in the town could muster so many Soul Sages!!

Xu Sheng agreed, "Actually... the overall strength of the Sea Soul Masters from Sea God's Island is indeed higher than that of the Soul Masters from the Continent!""The reason, probably, could be attributed to the fact that sea soul beasts of the same rank are inherently stronger than land soul beasts!!"

Gui Mei was just about to nod in agreement when he realized something and quickly questioned, "Wait... Xu Sheng, didn't you say you were going to compete? Why are you also here watching?"

Xu Sheng took a deep breath, "I am indeed going to compete, but... not in this free-for-all!!"

To win in such a free-for-all would leave a shocking impression on the spectators!

Therefore, he had chosen one-on-one!!

Gui Mei shrugged his shoulders, "Suit yourself, but don't you lose, otherwise it'll be a disgrace to the entire Martial Soul Hall!!"

As a Titled Douluo, it would be ridiculously shameful to be taken out by some little flunkies below the Soul Sage rank!!Xu Sheng confidently said, "Don't worry, Elder Gui, I won't lose, it's just that... to remain in the audience's minds with a shocking image is not an easy feat!!"

Even if he took out his opponent with a single strike, the spectators would only think that there was a huge gap in strength between the two!!

Hearing this, Gui Mei stopped paying him any attention and focused his gaze back on the battle platform...

It's not easy to come to Sea God's Island; in any case, it's essential to ascertain the overall strength of this place!

It would also be helpful for proposing later strategies for the Martial Soul Hall!!

...

Meanwhile!

The top floor of the arena!

An employee rushed into the resting room in a panic...

He gasped, "Sir... Sir, there's something I need to report!"

The man who had been intently counting the coins on the table immediately stopped his actions...

He said with annoyance, "Didn't I say so? If there is any major issue at the arena, don't come to me, report it upwards!"

"As for minor issues, you don't need to come either, just handle it yourself!!"

The only thing that could pique his interest was money!!

If there was something else, it would be endless amounts of money!!

The employee scratched his head awkwardly, "Sir, this... I'm not sure if it's a major or minor issue, so I wanted to ask for your opinion!!"

Without warning, he was scolded harshly by the former, "Useless, you can't even handle this simple task!!"

The scolded employee lowered his head even further, not daring to retort...

After the anger subsided slightly, he then asked, "So, what is it? You actually needed to bother me personally!"

The employee sighed with relief before replying, "Sir, here's the situation—someone just wanted to sign up for the competition!!"

On hearing this, the former's blood pressure shot up, and he scolded again, "Then just let him participate, do you have to report this to me?? Do you have any brains??"

He couldn't imagine how such a guy managed to infiltrate their ranks!!

"No... It's not like that, my lord, although the other party wants to compete, there is a big problem with their age!!"

"Age??"

Skyfixed Star Soul Master Academy!

Li Zhilong, who had departed, came out with several students from Skyfixed Star...

Smiling, he addressed Tang Wulin and his companions, "These students are the opponents I have chosen for you; their soul power ranks should be a bit higher than yours, is that alright?"

The reason for selecting students with a higher soul power rank was simply to test their strength!

After all, what Shrek Academy was most renowned for was their ability to fight across levels!

Upon hearing this inquiry, Tang Wulin and the others nodded their heads, showing traces of excitement...

Apart from actual combat, they were eager to test the power of their Battle Armor; the stronger the opponent, the better, of course!

On the other hand, the students from Skyfixed Star looked at Tang Wulin and his companions with curiosity, whispering among themselves, "Are they the students from Shrek Academy? They don't seem that special."

"Hmm, both their ages and soul power ranks are probably younger than ours! But since they are students of Shrek Academy, they must be strong!"

"I have never had a duel with a student from Shrek Academy before! I really wonder how strong they are!"

Having the chance to spar with students from Shrek Academy was almost the dream of every academy's students!

Afterwards, the two groups exchanged simple greetings and, led by Li Zhilong, they arrived at a grand arena!

However, unlike a normal arena, this one resembled more of a scenic leisure area!

Xu Xiaoyan immediately remarked, "This arena feels so strange! It doesn't look like a place for fighting at all; it's more like a perfect spot for enjoying the view!"

Gu Yue nodded in affirmation, "That's right! And it seems like the surrounding environment can subtly reveal a few twinkles of starlight!!"

Having said that, her hands were holding some specks of starlight...

Li Zhilong was taken aback for a moment and patiently explained, "My junior brothers and sisters, this arena is indeed different from the arenas elsewhere; its name is Starwatch Platform!"

"Once activated, whether it's day or night, you can closely observe the starry sky. Not only that, the large soul magic array carved inside can channel the power of the stars, transforming it into the purest form of power to aid students in their cultivation!"

"Of course, only the most outstanding students have the privilege to cultivate here!"

After this detailed explanation, Tang Wulin thoughtfully said, "I see, no wonder there are so many students lingering around here; they're waiting for their turn to cultivate!"

Ye Xinglan's beautiful eyes shimmered with a hint of light, "The starry sky, huh? If possible, I really want to see it with my own eyes!"

No doubt, nobody could refuse such a beautiful sight!

Xie Xie was startled, turning his gaze towards Xu Xiaoyan, "Wait a moment... The stars? Isn't Xiaoyan's Martial Soul of this type?"

Hearing this, Li Zhilong showed a look of surprise, "Oh? A star-themed Martial Soul? Then perhaps she could gain some insight when the Starwatch Platform is activated!"

In the history of Skyfixed Star Soul Master Academy, there was once a student who had a great advancement thanks to the power of the stars!

Tang Wulin said earnestly, "Then we'll thank our senior first, but in order to see the beauty of the Starwatch Platform later, let's start the battle quickly!"
