However, he only spoke until this point and did not recount how they even managed to kill the two Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons. After all, Lu Qianxun’s team might have pa.s.sed the round as well and may end up as opponents in the near future.

After hearing his thoughts and judgment, Lu Qianxun’s team was shocked. Their gazes on Lan Xuanyu changed as they thought about his problem-solving mind; it was possible to hide beneath the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon and even hide inside the lava.

He, who was usually inconspicuous, sleepy and often yawning in cla.s.ses, would actually be so calm and collected in real battles.

Lu Qianxun had always flaunted himself as the calmest in his age group, but he could tell from the qualifiers that Lan Xuanyu was, in fact, even more stable than him. More importantly, his ability to make calm and collected decisions far surpa.s.sed his. He was actually able to lead his team to become the last team standing without displaying any strong abilities. This was definitely an exceptional performance. He relied not on strength but intellect.

“If we are able to continue partic.i.p.ating in the later rounds, let us be allies. We can team up. How about it?” Lu Qianxun asked earnestly.

Lan Xuanyu was startled as he did not expect the always arrogant Lu Qianxun to say such words. This caused his impression of the boy to change. Not only was the guy in front of him the strongest in cla.s.s, but he was also the cla.s.s monitor; it was only natural that he would be arrogant.

Lu Qianxun added an additional sentence, “You’ll take the lead! Lead our group.”

Lan Xuanyu’s heart shook, and he only replied after pondering for a moment. “Alright. If there comes a time where we’ll have to work together, I have no issues with that.”

Lu Qianxun and Ye Lingtong were extremely powerful offensive type Soul Masters, while Chang Jianyi was a relatively strong control type. If both parties were to form an alliance, there would be mutual benefits.

Ye Lingtong stood to the side and glanced at them coldly, not saying a thing. However, her emotions within were running amok. She recalled a moment three years ago where Lan Xuanyu had sought to speak with her alone, only for her to be pulled away by Lu Qianxun. They had never completed that exchange. After that, Lan Xuanyu never went to find her again. Everyone remained as cla.s.smates, and as the curriculum was too fast, everyone was constantly exhausted. They hardly had the time to interact.

No one would have thought that under Lan Xuanyu’s lead, they would not only not be eliminated but also end up performing outstandingly. With him involved, it was as though Liu Feng and Qian Lei had been reborn. They had long noticed the anomaly where Lan Xuanyu’s support allowed them to gain additional boosts. Ye Lingtong now also had a guess as to why Lan Xuanyu had sought her that time long ago, most probably to check if he was able to provide her with buffs as well.

But things that were missed could not be taken back. After all, she was part of Lu Qianxun’s team. There were only three teams and no possibility of swapping teams, so she had no other choice but to be optimistic about him. That was how she continued to stay in the team. Up until the intense contest, while everyone was up against real difficulty, she was able to witness Lan Xuanyu’s cool-headedness and farsight. This caused her to think about how Lan Xuanyu had lured away the Three-Eyed Witch Ape in the Elite Junior Cla.s.s test to save her. A sense of guilt appeared in her heart.

“Alright, stop being dejected.” Upon returning back to the dorms, Liu Feng gave Qian Lei a light slap. “Our results definitely won’t be bad. Who could possibly replicate what we achieved? Our rankings for the initial qualifiers should be quite high, and we must get a definite advantage from the test. Furthermore, we have Xuanyu!”

The qualifiers had truly made Liu Feng’s admiration towards Lan Xuanyu jump to a whole new level.

Qian Lei raised his head with a slight frown and bitter look. “You guys have to keep my secret! We cannot divulge this to anyone; otherwise, I wonder how many people will scold me for being a fool.”

Lan Xuanyu giggled and clasped his hand down on his shoulder. “Being a fool is kind of cute. Our Qian Lei is a wise and avaricious n.o.ble. How great is that! Hahaha!”

Qian Lei rolled his eyes and cupped his hands at his chest area. “My heart is in so much pain, so much pain!”

The three played around for a bit and finally relaxed. They immediately felt the fatigue once more and sat cross-legged to meditate.

Lan Xuanyu sat on his own bed and gradually felt the flow of Soul Power within his body. After gaining his second soul ring, he felt that the greatest change lay in the power of his bloodlines and not his soul power. After undergoing another bout of mixing, the changes in the power emitted by the gold and silver bloodlines were apparent. They were strengthened, expanded, and further integrated. Although they were still completely different, there was no sense of collision. Under his conscious activation, the bloodline aura in his body was able to supply all the power that he needed.

Furthermore, after experiencing the battle in the qualifiers, he discovered that his combat ability sustainability had improved substantially. He had constantly been able to provide buffs for Liu Feng and Qian Lei the whole time. The fusion of his soul power and bloodlines power was constantly exported out, but he could sense that the consumption was not huge. After the fusion of the bloodlines power, his soul power seemingly turned viscous. In turn, the release of his soul skills was not only supported by pure soul power but also with the power of his bloodlines. This made him feel that his true strength should not be bottlenecked at rank 20, but at an even higher level. Furthermore, he had Twin Martial Soul of Blue Silver Gra.s.s and, in truth, four soul skills.

But the qualifiers had opened up a brand new world to him. Shrek Academy’s initial qualifier was already at such an intense level. He knew for a fact that the later tests would not be any easier, but rather, even more difficult. Seems like he would have to be extremely careful.

Furthermore, the qualifiers not only tested the individual’s strength, but their a.n.a.lytical and judgment abilities, intellect, and courage too. It was an extremely comprehensive test. Without sufficient courage, who would dare to jump into the lava to avoid danger?

By comparison, Shrek Academy was truly powerful!

He gradually immersed himself in meditation along with these thoughts. Slowly, all of these thoughts quietly disappeared without a sound. Lan Xuanyu’s innermost center became extremely empty.

Amidst the silence, he felt as though he could hear a giant dragon’s roar, as though he had once again returned into outer s.p.a.ce. The gigantic gold dragon swept before him and suddenly pounced onto the pirate wars.h.i.+ps.

In his ears, he heard the deafening thumps of the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragon’s footsteps. Every footstep was ear-splitting and felt as though it was stepping on his heart.

Young n.o.ble Le walked towards the gigantic wars.h.i.+p, and with his last stomp, eight gold dragons swept down and destroyed the entire wars.h.i.+p.

A warm sensation spread throughout his entire body as Lan Xuanyu gradually immersed himself in an unprecedented state, completely forgetting about himself and his state.

Early next morning when the first sunlight shone into the room, Qian Lei and Liu Feng crawled out of bed.

Qian Lei rubbed his eyes and looked towards the bed beside him, only to discover, to his surprise, that Lan Xuanyu was still in meditation. He waved his hands towards Liu Feng and pointed at Lan Xuanyu.

Liu Feng was equally surprised.

After the test, everyone returned to rest. While the two had gone to bed right away, Lan Xuanyu started his meditation. When meal time came, Lan Xuanyu was still meditating and showed no signs of waking up. The two went ahead to eat and even brought food back for him.

But even during dinner, Lan Xuanyu showed no signs of waking up and continued to immerse himself in his meditation. The two of them had not dared to disturb him, but the meditation lasted until now.

It had been a day and night of meditation! This was unprecedented. However, Lan Xuanyu’s life force was evidently stable, with faint soul power undulations around his body. A faint light seemed to circulate under his skin, giving off a dignified aura. He was obviously in some cultivation state, but he was not awake. What should they do?

Liu Feng pointed outside and gently leaped out of bed without making a sound. Qian Lei carefully got out of bed too, and the duo headed outside.
