Chapter 47: Tianshui, Shenfeng, Chihu, Xiangjia, and Thunder Gather
"First place is our Tianshui Academy's goal!"
"You 21, as representatives of each grade for this exchange meeting, from now on, you must focus on training, and improve your combat abilities."
"Understood, Instructor Xiu Zhen."
The students responded one after another.
"Instructor Xiu Zhen, which academy won first place in the last exchange meeting?" Ye Wen asked curiously.
"Ye Wen, it was Shenfeng Academy."
"Shenfeng, huh?" In Ye Wen's memory, among the Five Elements Academies, Shenfeng seemed to be a bit stronger.
"Hmph~ Shenfeng Academy has been the champion for three consecutive exchanges."
"Yeah! It's so frustrating! They've won the prize money for each session," some of the Tianshui students grumbled.
"Three consecutive times? Shenfeng is dominating," Ye Wen thought to himself.
He didn't dare to say that he could lead Tianshui to win first place this year, especially since he was only competing in the second-grade category.
"There are students here who have participated in the exchange before, but there are also those who haven't, so let me explain the rules of the Five Elements Academy Exchange meeting once again. Everyone, listen carefully."
Instructor Xiu Zhen cleared her throat and began: "The exchange meeting is a points-based competition. The first years will compete with first years, the second years with second years, and so on. Each student, through a draw, will fight against one student from each of the four other academies: Xiangjia, Shenfeng, Thunder, and Chihu."
"This means each student will compete in four matches. For each win, you earn one point. For matches in higher grades, a victory will earn two points. The academy with the highest total score will be crowned first place. Do you all understand?"
"Understood!"
"Got it! So, I can only help Tianshui earn a maximum of four points, which doesn't change much," Ye Wen thought to himself.
"Alright, everyone, go back and focus on your training."
"Yes, Instructor Xiu Zhen."
The students dispersed.
Shui Bing'er walked with Ye Wen, Xie Hu, and Xiao Bai.
Shui Bing'er leaned close to Ye Wen's ear and whispered, "Hey, Ye Wen, when are you planning to let everyone know your soul power has reached level 29?"
"Why should I tell them? They'll find out when the time comes," Ye Wen replied nonchalantly.
During this time, besides attending classes, he had been practicing his hammer techniques alone. He hadn't fought in front of others, so only Shui Bing'er, Xie Hu, and Xiao Bai knew how strong he was.
"Are you waiting for the exchange meeting to make a big splash?" Shui Bing'er asked.
"Hehe, not really," Ye Wen smiled.
A big splash?
He could easily defeat a few second-grade students without even activating his martial soul, and he didn't need to use much soul power. Without fluctuations in soul power, others wouldn't be able to tell his exact level.
"Well, it's up to you. Eventually, everyone will know," Shui Bing'er said.
Then, Shui Bing'er went back to the girls' dormitory, and Ye Wen continued practicing his Thunder Hammer Technique.
Unconsciously, ten days later, the exchange meeting finally began.
Today, the entire school had the day off, and all the students gathered at the competition venue, ready to watch the matches.
As Tianshui's representative students, Ye Wen and the others had already taken their seats.
Shenfeng, Chihu, Thunder, and Xiangjia had also gathered outside, waiting to enter.
"Ahem," Tianshui Academy's headmaster took the microphone and called for the other academies to enter. "Now, please welcome Shenfeng Academy!"
Soon, a path was cleared in the crowd, and a group of students in green uniforms walked in slowly.
"Wow, Tianshui Academy is really interesting. All I see are girls. Look, look! So many beautiful older sisters! If only I could study here, it would be so lucky!"
"Tianshui Academy never accepts male students, but it's certainly a feast for the eyes. Look at all these gorgeous white legs. Ah, it's perfect."
A few male students from Shenfeng Academy were commenting, admiring the Tianshui students.
Among them, Feng Xiaotian, who was in the middle of the crowd, turned around and reminded them, "Hey, keep your manners, alright?"
When Shenfeng's students walked in, they quickly noticed Ye Wen and Xie Hu among the Tianshui seats.
The Shenfeng students were confused: "Wait, didn't Tianshui not accept male students? What's going on with those two?"
"No way, Tianshui male students? How would I know?"
"Wow, is this for real? Those two guys are so lucky! This is so annoying! It's so unfair!"
The Shenfeng students were shocked by Ye Wen and Xie Hu's presence.
"Tianshui male students?"
Feng Xiaotian also glanced at them but soon understood. Tianshui must have accepted these two because of their outstanding talents.
"This guy must be Feng Xiaotian," Ye Wen thought, looking at him. His white spiked hair and black face mask were exactly as he remembered. It was easy to recognize him.
At present, Feng Xiaotian had already become a senior soul master.
The two exchanged glances but didn't pay any more attention.
Soon, Shenfeng students took their seats, and the headmaster continued: "Next, please welcome Chihu Academy!"
Among Chihu's group, a striking red-haired girl stood out. This girl was Fire Dance, one of Chihu Academy's future mainstays and its most talented student.
A top-tier Fire Martial Soul, Fire Shadow, a control-type soul master, 14 years old, currently a Level 32 Senior Soul Master.
Fire Dance was extremely beautiful, not inferior to Shui Bing'er. With dark red hair, fair skin, and a pair of large silver eyes, she wore a red school uniform, looking like a flame herself.
Most notably, she was quite well-endowed, which, of course, wasn't the main point.
Next to Fire Dance was her older brother, Fire Wushuang, the future leader of the Chihu team. His Martial Soul was the Unicycle Fire Dragon, 16 years old, and he had a soul power of 34.
Soon, the Chihu students sat down. They too were surprised when they saw Ye Wen and Xie Hu.
"Next, please welcome Xiangjia Academy!"
[Skipping this part.]
"Lastly, please welcome Thunder Academy!"
The most attention-grabbing person from Thunder Academy was Yu Tianxin.
Yu Tianxin, one of the younger generations of the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex family, one of the seven major sects on the continent.
He was known as one of the Twin Stars, the other being Yu Tianheng, who currently studied at the Tiandou Royal Academy.
Yu Tianxin, currently 14 years old, level 32, with the top-tier Beast Martial Soul, the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex was a top-tier Beast Martial Soul on the continent, with its soul beasts being quite powerful. Their Martial Souls have the unique characteristic that at level 30, every 10 levels, a part of their body would transform into a dragon.
