Chapter 18 Blazing Academy
Afterwards, Huo Lie brought Xiao Fei to the training base in the back mountain of the academy. In Huo Lie's eyes, since he was already level 26 at the age of 11, he would definitely be the leader of the academy in another 5 to 10 years.
There were about ten students training in the backyard. These ten students were the team and substitutes of Blazing Academy. Everyone was training hard.
After Huo Lie arrived, he called everyone over and said to Xiao Fei, "This is Huo Wushuang, a level 38 offensive war soul master, and the captain of the Blazing team. The one next to him is Huo Wu, a level 37 control war soul master."
Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu were standing there. Huo Wushuang looked calm and composed, while Huo Wu was youthful and beautiful, the most daring and fiery beauty in the entire Douluo Continent.
Huo Lie then pointed at Xiao Fei and said, "Xiao Fei, introduce yourself. You'll probably be joining the Blazing Team someday."
He stepped forward and said, "Hello everyone. My name is Wang Xiao Fei, my spirit is the Fire Phoenix, and I'm a level 43 Strong Attack-type Battle Soul Master."
When Xiao Fei revealed his spirit and spirit power levels, Huo Lie was astonished. Everyone else's eyes widened in disbelief. Judging by the evidence, this Wang Xiao Fei must be only twelve years old. If that were true, wouldn't he be the youngest Soul Master in history?
Huo Lie approached Xiao Fei with a serious expression and said, "Xiao Fei, show me your spirit and spirit rings."
Xiao Fei nodded and exclaimed, "Spirit Possession." A massive fire phoenix appeared around Xiao Fei, and then four spirit rings, two yellow and two purple, flashed beneath his feet.
"You really are a Soul Master! This is incredible! Xiao Fei, how did you train to be so strong?" Everyone stared in amazement.
After a quick glance at all the students, Huo Lie led Xiao Fei off the training grounds and into the teaching office. He said to Xiao Fei, "Xiao Fei, you were only level 26 a year ago, and now you're level 43.
Can you tell me about your experiences this past year? Also, your spirit was a flame bird, so how did it become a fire phoenix? You're still young, so you absolutely mustn't use any of the methods of evil spirit masters to increase your spirit power."
Xiao Fei thought for a moment and said to Huo Lie, "Teacher Huo Lie, could you please examine me?"
Huo Lie paused and said, "Let's wait a moment. I'll have our academy dean come and examine us." Huo Lie then led Xiao Fei to the dean's office.
Inside, they were met by a stern old man. He must be the dean of Blazing Fire Academy, Huo Tianchen, Huo Lie's father and the grandfather of Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang.
Huo Lie explained Xiao Fei's condition to him, and Huo Tianchen, with a serious expression, approached.
He took Xiao Fei's hand, and a trace of his spirit power entered Xiao Fei's body. He then pressed and examined various parts of Xiao Fei's body. Finally, he said, "Xiao Fei, your physical fitness is very good. In terms of physical fitness alone, you are probably close to the physical fitness of a Soul Emperor.
The flame in your body is very pure, and even the flame intensity is higher than mine. You are only 12 years old. Can you tell me about your experience this year?"
Xiao Fei said, "Okay, Dean, I have been practicing in the nest of the fire bird that I hunted with my second soul ring for the past year. The fire element in it is very suitable for my practice. The third and fourth soul rings both absorbed the mutated earth fire lizard. When hunting the earth fire lizard, I was very happy.
I found a fiery red sunflower somewhere, somewhat resembling a rooster's comb. Ever since I ate it, I've felt my flames become purer, and my spirit power has increased by five levels. My martial soul has always been the Fire Phoenix, but perhaps the spirit master who awakened me was mistaken.
Huo Tianchen nodded and said, "The sunflower you're talking about is a treasure of the Fire Element, the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower. It can enable martial souls with phoenix blood to evolve. The Earth Fire Lizard has phoenix blood, which is indeed a perfect match for your spirit ring."
Huo Tianchen and Huo Lie discussed Xiao Fei's argument and agreed that it made perfect sense. Huo Lie took Xiao Fei to the dorms, while Huo Tianchen arranged for personnel to investigate the Moltres' nests and the locations of the Earth Fire Lizards. After all, Earth Fire Lizards are excellent spirit ring options for fire-type spirit masters and a valuable resource for Blazing Academy.
Huo Lie then assigned a student to guide Xiao Fei through the Blazing Academy environment, including the cafeteria, dormitories, and training grounds. Xiao Fei was also given several sets of Blazing Academy uniforms.
In the evening, Xiao Fei meditated alone while organizing his future study and exercise plans. He would run with weights in the morning, train with the team in the morning, and, with no plans for the afternoon yet, go to the Great Soul Fighting Arena in the evening. Afterward, he would meditate. This restored his usual rhythm of study at Notting Academy.
The next morning, Xiao Fei rushed around the training grounds with his weights, startling Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu, who had gotten up early to train. Xiao Fei felt his current weights were no longer suitable for him; they felt a bit too light. He needed to get a new one custom-made.
After breakfast, the Blazing Fire team assembled. This was Xiao Fei's first time attending Blazing Fire Academy training. Training content was tailored by the instructors based on each academy.
Huo Wu, for example, would study soul power alone. Huo Wushuang, on the other hand, focused on combat techniques. Huo Wushuang was a power-attacking warrior, while the others had different approaches.
The instructor was Huo Yi, a level 67 power-attacking spirit master and Huo Wu's uncle.
Since he didn't know Xiao Fei well, Huo Yi asked him individually which skill he excelled in: power-attacking or agile-attacking. Xiao Fei thought for a moment and said, "Teacher, I think I can do both. With speed, I should be agile-attacking. With physical strength and confrontation, I could be a power-attacking type."
Xiao Fei didn't actually say that, given his physical prowess, he could be a defensive type.
In the end, Huo Yi felt that Xiao Fei's combination of power and agile skills was a well-rounded combination. Every morning, several instructors would come to compete with them.
Xiao Fei glanced toward the volcano, which was already quite steep in some places. Xiao Fei had a flash of inspiration and smiled, and then he had a plan for afternoon training.
On the afternoon of the first day, Huo Yi took Xiao Fei to the classroom alone and said to Xiao Fei, "Since you are joining the team directly, you may not be familiar with some things in Chihuo Academy.
There are two main aspects, one is meditation, and the other is medicinal bath. Both of these things can be passed on to you, but you cannot pass them on to outsiders."
In fact, these things are not available to those who are not direct descendants or key students of Chihuo Academy.
The meditation method is for students only, and the advanced part is only learned by members of the Huo family or people related to the Huo family. The ones for other students will be relatively simple. The medicinal bath is purchased directly from the school.
The school has already configured it. Of course, the school does not make money from this. Each high-level medicinal bath material costs 100 gold soul coins, and the low-level 30 gold soul coins.
