Chapter 135 Lu Ming is omnipotent! Ning Rongrong admires him! Tang San is jealous!
Although Ma Hongjun, who was missing a part, still had his fat body, he gritted his teeth and echoed:
"Yes, Third Brother! The Master is right!"
"We must get our revenge! We'll utterly crush that Tianshui team!"
"Those bitches have caused us so much trouble, we have to settle this score!"
Upon hearing the words "revenge," Tang San took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.
"The teacher is right."
"No matter what, we must win today's battle, we cannot afford to lose."
...
On the other hand, the atmosphere at Lu Ming's table was much more cheerful.
Lu Ming simply ignored the murderous glares coming from the Shrek Academy students.
The jealousy of a few ants is not worth the dragon turning back.
Ning Rongrong took a bite of the meat bun and said indistinctly:
"Captain, let me tell you, Zhu Qing, our opponent next is the Tianshui team."
Lu Ming was drinking porridge when he heard this, and simply nodded.
"Know."
Tianshui Academy, one of the five elemental academies, is composed entirely of beautiful female Soul Masters.
Ning Rongrong swallowed the steamed bun, then adopted the air of an intelligence expert and began to speak eloquently:
"Captain, don't underestimate Tianshui Academy. They're not simple."
"Especially that captain, Shui Bing'er. Although she's young, her soul power has already reached level 44! That's even higher than Dai Mubai, that good-for-nothing!"
"Moreover, she can also use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill—Ice and Snow Drifting—with that vice-captain named Shui Yue'er!"
At this point, Xiao Wu, who was munching on a carrot, chimed in:
"Yes, yes! The master analyzed it before."
"He said that once that spirit fusion skill is used, it can defeat a spirit king of level 50 or higher!"
"What I hate most is their wide-range ice and snow control. There's no way to avoid it on the arena. It can not only slow down movement, but also freeze people into ice sculptures. Even if a Soul Emperor encounters them, he won't have a good chance if he doesn't have a powerful way to break the deadlock."
Xiao Wu waved the half-eaten carrot, looking terrified.
"What we feared most was running into them. We never expected to be so unlucky as to bump into them in the very first game."
Ning Rongrong also looked miserable, pitifully tugging at Lu Ming's sleeve and acting coquettishly:
"Captain~ You know I'm a support-type Soul Master, and I'm most afraid of those icy and snowy environments."
"When you go on stage, you absolutely have to protect her!"
Seeing Ning Rongrong's manipulative behavior, Lu Ming hadn't even spoken when Zhu Zhuqing put down her chopsticks.
She puffed out her proud breasts, causing her tight leather outfit to tremble in a dizzying way.
"Rongrong, no need to trouble the captain."
Zhu Zhuqing's cool voice rang out, carrying an unprecedented confidence.
"I will protect you."
Ning Rongrong was taken aback, blinked her big eyes, and looked at Zhu Zhuqing suspiciously.
"Zhu Qing? You'll protect me?"
"Even though you're an agility-based attacker, you'd still be in trouble against that kind of wide-area control, wouldn't you?"
Zhu Zhuqing's lips curled up slightly, revealing a rare, faint smile.
That was before.
She slowly extended her right hand, her five fingers long and slender, with faint black energy flowing from her fingertips—a sign that she had reached a certain level in the Nine Yin White Bone Claw technique.
"I'm already at level 36."
"Under the Soul Sect, there is no equal."
After he finished speaking, the dining table fell silent.
The steamed bun in Ning Rongrong's hand fell onto the plate with a "thud".
Xiao Wu even forgot to chew her favorite carrot, staring wide-eyed as if she were looking at a monster.
"Wh...what?!"
Ning Rongrong gasped in surprise, drawing the attention of the other students eating nearby.
"Level 36?! Zhu Qing, are you kidding me?!"
"I remember when you first came to our college, you were only in the class of '32! It's only been a few days! How come you're already in the class of '36?!"
This cultivation speed is simply unreasonable!
Even a rocket wouldn't be this fast!
Xiao Wu was also shocked. "Yes, Zhu Qing, did you take some kind of magic pill? This is too exaggerated!"
Faced with the two women's monstrous gazes, Zhu Zhuqing merely glanced at Lu Ming, who was quietly drinking porridge beside her.
A hint of tenderness and gratitude flashed in his eyes.
"Thanks to the captain."
"If it weren't for the captain's guidance and help, I wouldn't have been able to break through so quickly."
That night's "guidance" not only helped her open her meridians and resolve the hidden dangers of the "Nine Yin White Bone Claw," but also allowed her to absorb a precious piece of soul bone energy.
Breaking through four levels in a row was simply a natural progression.
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing turned to look at Lu Ming at the same time, their shock even greater.
It's Lu Ming again?
Just how many tricks does this guy have up his sleeve?
Seeing Ning Rongrong's dazed expression, Zhu Zhuqing made a rare teasing remark:
"Rongrong, are you regretting it now?"
"Back then, when I asked you to come with me to find the captain for training at night, you complained that it was too tiring and didn't want to go."
"If you had gone, you might be the one to break through now."
Ning Rongrong's face fell instantly, and she was filled with regret.
She looked at Lu Ming, then at Zhu Zhuqing whose aura was significantly stronger than before, and finally slumped onto the table, letting out a mournful wail.
"Waaaaah... I regret it!"
"I'm only level 32! I need special training too! I need to level up!"
The girl's charming and adorable appearance drew laughter from the crowd.
Heavenly Dou City, Great Battle Arena.
The clamor swept through the entire central arena like a tsunami.
Today, the stands, which can accommodate 80,000 spectators, are packed to capacity. All eyes are focused on the massive arena in the center.
The host, dressed in a tuxedo, stood on a suspended platform and used a megaphone to amplify his voice to every corner.
"Dear viewers, the exciting moment has arrived!"
"Next up is the most anticipated clash of titans in the qualifiers!"
"On one side is the Tianshui Academy team, a veteran powerhouse and one of the five elemental academies, with an all-female lineup!"
"On the other side, there is this year's biggest dark horse, sweeping all before them, the Blue Tyrant Academy team led by our Lu Ming!"
As the host introduced them, the two teams stepped out of the contestant tunnels on both sides almost simultaneously.
Blue Tyrant Academy rest area.
Today, Liu Erlong was dressed in a smart red outfit, showing off her hot figure.
She stood by the fence, completely ignoring the stares of those around her, waving her fist and shouting loudly:
"Xiao Ming! Give me a good beating!"
"Show the spirit of Blue Tyrant Academy! Don't embarrass us!"
Her bold and forthright manner made the teachers leading the teams from the surrounding colleges shrink back in surprise.
This "Horn of Slaughter" is a renowned figure in the world of Soul Masters.
Passageway entrance.
Lu Ming walked at the very front.
He stood tall and straight, with jet-black hair. Although he was only wearing an ordinary Blue Tyrant school uniform, the composure and confidence that emanated from his very being made him shine.
Behind him, on his left was the aloof Zhu Zhuqing, and on his right was the mischievous Ning Rongrong, with the rest of the Blue Tyrant team members following closely behind.
