"After watching yesterday's matches, which academy would dare to challenge us?
Opportunity?
I feel like we might not even have the chance to use our Soul Skills in the Preliminary Competition."
Huo Wushuang had an ominous premonition, which was quickly confirmed.
Preliminary Competition, Round Three, First Group, Central Arena, Blazing Fire Team VS Azure Radiance Academy.
However, Azure Radiance Academy conceded without even stepping onto the stage.
Azure Radiance Academy's strength was among the top of the twenty-eight teams.
Their Team Leader Teacher was also a Soul Saint with a somewhat infamous reputation, Shi Nian.
This person possessed a Special Martial Soul similar to Huo Wu's Fire Shadow, Lingering Dream.
This Special Martial Soul could weave nightmares, preventing enemies from awakening and causing them to perish in torment.
Of course, besides these, what attracted Quan Yi's attention the most was the Head Soul Bone hidden within Shi Nian's body.
Analyzing from the Soul Bone's shape and energy form, it was a gem-type Soul Bone, very suitable for Support System Soul Masters and illusion-type Soul Masters.
This perfectly matched the Lingering Dream Martial Soul.
This Martial Soul, already specializing in mental control, was incredibly fortunate to be equipped with such a fitting Head Soul Bone.
This Shi Nian was also clever, seeing that his opponent was Blazing Fire Academy, he decisively conceded, attempting to preserve his team's strength.
However, this action caused a chorus of boos from The Whole Arena.
Especially those Nobles who had paid high prices for entrance tickets to the ordinary sections, who unceremoniously cursed Azure Radiance Academy.
Amidst the boos, Huo Wushuang on the spectator stand sighed, "I knew this would happen."
Quan Yi and Huo Wu, the two culprits, deliberately ignored their teammates' gazes and focused even more intently on the matches.
Today, Xue Qinghe's figure was not visible in the VIP Seats.
For Qian Renxue, direct contact with Quan Yi must be avoided as much as possible.
The fusion fluctuations between their Martial Souls would be a fatal threat to Qian Renxue, who needed to conceal her identity.
It was also unknown whether the Soul Bone Skill she used for disguise could conceal this unique fluctuation.
Looking back at the Arena, today's match schedule was quite uninteresting, and the scene of strong opponents clashing that Quan Yi had been anticipating did not occur.
In the first group's four matches, Thunder Academy and Heavenly Water Academy easily defeated their opponents.
Quan Yi still hadn't gathered any useful information.
What was more interesting was that in the second group's match, the Divine Wind Academy's opponent did not concede in advance like Azure Radiance Academy.
Just as the audience praised their courage and thought they would soon see a Soul Emperor take the stage, the opponent suddenly raised a white flag and surrendered.
The reason was simple: they seemed to have misjudged Feng Xiaotian's injuries.
Yesterday, Huo Wu's overwhelming victory over Feng Xiaotian led them to believe that Feng Xiaotian must be seriously injured. If they could eliminate Feng Xiaotian, they might have a chance to defeat Divine Wind Academy.
Unfortunately, after stepping onto the stage, when Feng Xiaotian released an aura that showed no signs of weakness, the opponent immediately surrendered during the Martial Soul activation phase.
This action instantly shifted the audience's dissatisfaction from Azure Radiance Academy to themselves.
It was all their fault for leaving the audience with a glimmer of hope, making their disappointment even greater.
"Haha, they surrendered way too quickly."
Huo Wu was amused by the opponent's 'shamelessness'.
They didn't know that Huo Wu seemed to have attacked heavily yesterday, but they were all superficial injuries.
If they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, they could only say that they had misjudged Huo Wu.
In the third group that took the stage last, Shrek Academy was among the eight teams appearing.
Having won two consecutive matches, Shrek Academy had shed its image of weakness and was also arranged by the organizers to be in the Central Arena today.
Living up to the expectations of the audience and the organizers, the Shrek Team smoothly secured their third consecutive victory.
The third round of the Preliminary Competition thus came to an end.
Today, besides the match, Quan Yi noticed that Huo Wuxie, as the Dean of the Blazing Fire Academy, directly pulled the still somewhat dejected Huo Wushuang and went to the area where the Fire Star Academy was located for friendly negotiations.
Judging from the atmosphere of the conversation, although they were still somewhat unfamiliar with each other, it was generally harmonious and could be considered a successful exchange.
It seemed that Huo Wu had successfully persuaded Huo Wuxie yesterday.
In the afternoon, Quan Yi, Huo Wu, Su Ling'er, and Quan Ni reunited and returned to their residence in Heaven Dou City together.
"Big brother, today's match was so boring. When will big brother be able to play?"
Quan Ni, wearing a uniquely shaped dragon-shaped golden circlet on her head, expressed her dissatisfaction to Quan Yi in a sullen mood.
Quan Yi reached out and stroked her little head, comforting her, "There's no way, big brother is too strong, and people don't dare to fight me.
Alas, it's lonely at the top; this is the predicament that the strong must face."
"It's lonely at the top!
Oh, how amazing, so this is the world of the strong."
Quan Ni clenched her fists, her eyes shining brightly, savoring the artistic conception Quan Yi described with an excited expression.
Su Ling'er, who was beside them, watched the conversation between the two siblings gently and exclaimed, "You still have a way; one sentence made Xiao Ni happy."
Su Ling'er gave Quan Yi a thumbs up.
Quan Yi returned a smile. For children of this age, slightly chuuni lines are the easiest to hit their hearts.
Just as he looked at Su Ling'er, Quan Yi felt a cold metallic touch on his hand.
It was the dragon-shaped golden circlet on Quan Ni's head that began to move, bringing the Dragon Head close to Quan Yi's wrist and gently rubbing against it.
"Xiao Jin, thank you for continuing to protect Xiao Ni."
Quan Yi simply communicated with Xiao Jin through telepathy.
Xiao Jin nodded and turned back into a circlet shape, coiling around the top of Quan Ni's head.
This is the defense method Quan Yi left by his family's side.
Don't look at it as just a part of the Dark Gold Yang Dragon Armor, but Xiao Jin's body is constructed from the volume of an entire arm.
Before accepting the baptism of the Ultimate Thunder Tribulation, it was half of Quan Yi's Martial Soul.
After accepting the Thunder Tribulation baptism, its physical strength has been greatly improved, and its soul strength is also equivalent to that of a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast, except that it has less experience than other Soul Beasts.
According to pure combat power, Xiao Jin is not weaker than a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast at all and is one of Quan Yi's reliable clones.
At dusk, Quan Yi and Huo Wu parted ways with their families and returned to Sunset Forest again.
Arriving above the destination, Quan Yi stayed in the air alone, not in a hurry to land.
He activated the Scarlet Dragon Eye and was carefully watching the changes produced by the setting sun at dusk.
Unfortunately, until the sun completely set, Quan Yi did not find any purple aura.
"It seems that I can only test it tomorrow morning."
Beside the Ice and Fire Spring.
Huo Wu inserted the second section of the Bone Wings, along with the tip that had been quenched yesterday, into the Yang Spring.
The length and volume of the second section are much larger than the tip. The moment the Soul Bone entered the Yang Spring, a piercing pain made Huo Wu's body tremble.
Fortunately, after last night's indirect quenching, the second section of the Bone Wings showed good toughness.
