Chapter -79 Favouritism.

Chapter -79.

In Class One, the star trio is made up of Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao is on the petite side and may not be the most strikingly beautiful girl, but she has a fresh and charming look, with a touch of shyness that makes her even more endearing.

Right now, the three of them exchanged glances, and the mood felt a bit heavy.

Huo Yuhao tried to break the ice with an awkward smile, "How about we talk tactics?"

Wang Dong sighed, "What is that old lady Zhou Yi thinking? Why would she put you, a first-ring soul master, with us two second-ring soul masters? It feels like we're being held back!"

Xiao Xiao nodded slightly, clearly agreeing with Wang Dong.

If it weren't for Zhou Yi's strict rule against questioning her team choices, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao would have already asked her to change the lineup.

Feeling a bit downcast, Huo Yuhao looked at the confident Wang Dong, who seemed to think less of him. He felt a strong urge to give that pretty face a good punch, but he quickly dismissed the thought, knowing he was still far behind in strength.

To lighten the mood, Xiao Xiao chimed in with a sweet smile, "The assessment starts tomorrow afternoon! Even though the class leader's soul power isn't the strongest, I remember her first soul skill is a mental attribute skill called Weakness, which can be really effective."

She continued, "My main martial soul is the Three Life Town Soul Cauldron, which can both attack and defend. It can control the battlefield a bit too! It focuses on colliding with enemies to create intimidation, causing dizziness and dealing damage. My second martial soul is the Xiao, the Nine Phoenixes' Arrival Xiao, which mainly helps with control. Right now, my second martial soul has a hundred-year soul ring that can slow down opponents during battles."

Wang Dong confidently added, "That's true! Even if Huo Yuhao's strength is a bit of a drag, his soul skills are still pretty good. You two can help me weaken the opponents, and then my martial soul, the Bright Goddess Butterfly, will take them down!"

While Huo Yuhao's group was brainstorming strategies, Chen Feng, Wu Yue, and Nanmen Yun'er had already made their way to an open area.

Chen Feng looked at his teammates for the freshman assessment and said, "Yun'er, Wu Yue, how you perform in this assessment will really impact your chances of becoming core disciples. It's super important, so give it your all! Just do your thing; I'll support you."

The new student assessment was a walk in the park for Chen Feng, but if he easily defeated all his opponents, it wouldn't be fair to his teammates. It's like playing basketball and hogging the ball without working with your team—so annoying! For Chen Feng, this assessment was no big deal, but for Wu Yue and Nanmen Yun'er, it was crucial for their futures. They could feel Chen Feng's good intentions.

Nanmen Yun'er gazed at Chen Feng's handsome face and said, "Thank you, class leader!"

"Big brother, I'm so touched by your concern for me, little brother..." Wu Yue chimed in, her voice dripping with flattery.

Chen Feng waved his hand, chuckling, "Alright, alright, let's spar a bit so I can see what you both can do."

Wu Yue, with her black hair and blue eyes, felt a tingle of fear at the mention of "spar." Her delicate face twitched as she replied, "Big brother, no way! Sparring with you would be pointless! How about I spar with Nanmen Yun'er instead? We're both great soul masters and evenly matched." She shot a not-so-friendly look at the still-smiling Nanmen Yun'er, saying, "Hey, stop staring at the boss and let's get to it."

Nanmen Yun'er, with her flowing light green hair and gentle dark green eyes, snapped out of her daze at Wu Yue's words.

She smiled and said, "Sure, Wu Yue! But I don't want to hurt you."

Wu Yue raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit underestimated. She activated her martial spirit, and two yellow soul rings lit up around her. Her blue pupils turned into feline slits, cat ears sprouted on her head, and her hands transformed into sharp, knife-like claws. "Wu Yue, level 22 great soul master, martial spirit: Gale Tiger."

Chen Feng watched Wu Yue's transformation with a smile and said, "Alright, I'll be the referee for you two."

Nanmen Yun'er activated her own martial spirit, and two yellow soul rings appeared around her as well. Jade-green wings unfolded from her back. "Nanmen Yun'er, level 24 great soul master, martial spirit: Jade Green Bird."

The two girls took their stances, ready to face off. Wu Yue, unable to hold back her excitement, activated one of her yellow soul rings, enveloping herself in wind energy, boosting her speed and sharpening her claws as she charged at Nanmen Yun'er. Nanmen Yun'er, quick on her feet, activated her yellow soul ring, transforming her hands into jade-green weapons, ready to clash with Wu Yue.

Claws met palms, and sparks flew! After several exchanges, neither side gained the upper hand. During one collision, Nanmen Yun'er used the momentum to retreat, her soul rings glowing brightly. Brilliant green light radiated from her hands, forming a crescent-shaped blade aimed straight at Wu Yue.

Nanmen Yun'er's first soul skill was called Jade Blade, turning her arms into blades, while her second skill, Jade Slash, could be combined with the first. Skills that stack together are usually much stronger than when used separately. Many soul masters discover their skills through trial and error, but Nanmen Yun'er's family had figured out the best combinations over generations.

The power behind Nanmen Yun'er's strike was impressive; the jade green blade traced a beautiful arc in the air, locking onto Wu Yue and making it impossible to dodge. Wu Yue's first soul skill was Wind's Protection, and her second was Gale Claw. Seeing the sharp jade blade, she knew better than to test it with her own palm.

So, instead of standing her ground, she rolled away like a lazy cat. Nanmen Yun'er giggled, lightly reminding her, "Wu Yue, my soul skill is locked on, you know." Wu Yue, lying on the ground, was stunned. She hadn't expected the green blade to track her. Cursing inwardly, she thought, how could this girl be so strong?

As the green blade got closer, Wu Yue panicked and shouted, "Big brother! Save me!!!!"

Just as the blade was about to reach her, Chen Feng dashed in front of her. He conjured a layer of ice crystals in his palm and, to Nanmen Yun'er's shock, grasped the green blade. With a firm grip, he crushed it, and it vanished like scattered stars. Wu Yue, still on the ground, hugged Chen Feng's leg, exclaiming, "Big brother, you're amazing! I admire you so much..."

Chen Feng shook his leg, causing Wu Yue to tumble down. Meanwhile, Nanmen Yun'er looked at Chen Feng with sparkling green eyes, saying, "Class leader, you're incredible!"

Chen Feng smiled, "Alright, I've gotten to know you both better. Yooner, your strength is impressive, and the combination of your first two soul skills is quite powerful. While it may not match a thousand-year soul skill, it's still very strong." Hearing this praise, Nanmen Yun'er blushed and shyly looked down, playing with the hem of her clothes, looking like a sweet and obedient girl. Chen Feng glanced at the overly enthusiastic Wu Yue and decided to keep quiet about that.

Wu Yue quickly brushed off her loss to Nanmen Yun'er, beaming with excitement. In her eyes, teaming up with Chen Feng meant they were destined to win the championship. She smiled at him and said, "Big brother, let's go explore Shrek City! You've been training so hard; it's time to relax a bit." Chen Feng looked at Wu Yue with a slightly puzzled expression. He admitted that his previous training was a bit dull, but now it was... really efficient and quite enjoyable. However, he had already planned to take a break today and explore Shrek City. He glanced at the eager Nanmen Yun'er and Wu Yue and said, "Alright, let's go check out Shrek City."

When Wu Yue heard Chen Feng agree, she was overjoyed and started chattering about all the fun and delicious spots in Shrek City. Meanwhile, Nanmen Yun'er watched Wu Yue monopolize the conversation with Chen Feng, feeling a bit frustrated.

After finally getting a chance to be close to Chen Feng, she didn't expect Wu Yue to be in the way. Why was she so unlucky?

Nanmen Yun'er: (-----___-----) Soon, the three of them set off towards Shrek City...

After a while, Chen Feng smiled at Wu Yue and Nanmen Yun'er, saying, "How about we split up and explore? Let's meet at the east gate of Shrek City at eleven." "Okay, big brother!" "No problem, class leader!" Nanmen Yun'er and Wu Yue smiled and waved at Chen Feng. Since they had been too focused on him while shopping together, it made sense to separate and enjoy their own time. Chen Feng quietly went to meet Ling Luocheng... They were all happy, and so was Chen Feng ( =^▽^= ).

In the Blue Flower Sea Room of the Weiss Hotel, Chen Feng used his soul skill, Virtual Blade, to sneak in without anyone noticing. As soon as he entered, a cool beauty caught his eye. It was Ling Luocheng, who had taken a break from her classes. Knowing Chen Feng had no classes today, she decided to take the opportunity to train with him. For the past few days, Ma Xiaotao had been monopolizing Chen Feng's time, leaving Ling Luocheng feeling a bit anxious. Now that she saw a chance, she wasn't going to let it slip away. Chen Feng: ...

The morning flew by. During this time, Ling Luocheng could feel her martial soul growing stronger. With her martial soul enhanced, her soul power also increased to level fifty-three. Naturally, she wanted to train more with Chen Feng. "Chen Feng, I want to extend our training time! Ma Xiaotao obviously has more time than I do; it's not fair!" Chen Feng felt a bit helpless. When Ma Xiaotao was out on a mission, he had trained with Ling Luocheng, but she was still a novice, struggling to keep up. Although he thought this, he certainly couldn't say it out loud: "Ahem, Luocheng, training should be gradual."

Ling Luocheng felt her body had reached its limit and nodded in agreement.

With a hint of jealousy, she asked Chen Feng, "Tell me the truth, is Ma Xiaotao stronger than me?"

Chen Feng replied, "Sister Luocheng, I'll let you see for yourself."
