Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Agreeing to Huo Wu’s Request

The group of girls from Skywater Academy was on their way back.

They had just walked past Yan, Huo Wu, and Huo Wushuang, and the intense aura radiating from the three of them stirred up a strange sense of unease in their hearts.

They even felt a hint of hostility.

"Teacher, the two young people beside Yan Luo also seem to be fire-element soul masters?"

Shui Yue'er couldn't help but break the silence.

Teacher Shui Yueru was walking at the front of the group. Upon hearing this, she gave a slight nod.

"Mm, I noticed that too. The three of them appear to be about the same age as you, and they could very well be your opponents in the upcoming Soul Master Tournament."

"Teacher, do you think they might really be students from Blazing Fire Academy?" another girl cautiously asked.

Shui Yueru shook her head and sighed softly:

"I'm not entirely sure. But no matter which academy they're from, one thing is certain Yan Luo is a very troublesome opponent. You all saw his strength just now with your own eyes."

Shui Bing'er followed up:

"If those three really are from Blazing Fire Academy, then the strength of this year's Blazing Fire team might reach an unprecedented level."

After hearing that, the girls fell silent once again.

The relationship between Skywater Academy and Blazing Fire Academy was rather delicate. The elemental attributes of the two academies countered each other, making every clash between them full of suspense and competition.

In the last Soul Master Tournament, Blazing Fire Academy had lost to Skywater Academy.

So, the students of this generation had always viewed Skywater Academy as the rival they wanted to surpass.

Shui Yueru consoled them:

"Alright, children, don't worry too much. There are still two years until the next Soul Master Tournament. You all have a lot of room to grow. As long as we follow the plan step by step and train hard, I believe that by then, our Skywater Academy will definitely achieve a great result."

"Yes, Teacher!"

The girls responded in unison, eyes gleaming with determination, all filled with anticipation for the upcoming special training.

Yan returned to the hotel and cultivated for a while before going to sleep.

The auxiliary effect of the immortal herb in his body was still quite evident.

Tonight, during his battle with that Snow Fur Brown Bear soul master, he felt his blazing flames become even more domineering.

The next evening, Yan once again arrived at the Spirit Arena and registered for a one-on-one match.

Although his opponent was also a water-element soul master of a higher level than him, Yan still secured another undisputed victory.

He had now won four matches in a row. With just one more win, he would qualify to compete in the higher-level main arena.

However, this didn't seem to mean much to him.

Because even in the main arena, he would still only be facing opponents at the Soul Ancestor level.

At this point, opponents of the Soul Ancestor level could no longer pose any threat to him not even those who used water-element soul power.

A match without the thrill of challenge held little interest for him, even if he won.

In the following days, Yan didn't go to the Spirit Arena. Instead, he focused on cultivating in the hotel.

That evening, Yan and Yue Guan returned to the Spirit Arena once more.

This time, he didn't register for a match, but came as a spectator to watch battles between other soul masters.

He wanted to find a soul master he could partner with, giving him the opportunity to challenge higher-level opponents.

According to the rules of the Spirit Arena, one-on-one matches didn't allow cross-level challenges.

However, two-on-two matches and team battles did, since the standard was based on the higher-level soul master in the group.

If he could find a Soul King-level soul master and form a duo, he'd then have the chance to challenge two Soul Kings at once.

Of course, the partner would need to be weaker preferably someone who had just broken through level fifty to become a Soul King.

But finding a suitable soul master in this sub-arena wasn't easy.

Yan wasn't in a rush and planned to observe for now.

Just as he was about to buy a ticket, he saw two familiar figures Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang, the sibling pair.

It had been a few days since they last met, and both of them were delighted to see Yan again.

"Brother Yan, we haven't seen you in days. I thought you weren't coming anymore."

Yan smiled and said.

"I've been in closed-door cultivation the past few days. How have you two been lately? Have you entered any matches?"

"We have. We've already won three consecutive two-on-two matches."

"Congratulations. If you win two more in a row, you'll qualify to compete in the main Spirit Arena."

What should have been something to be happy about made Huo Wu shake her head and sigh softly.

"Even if we make it to the main Spirit Arena, so what? We're still only entering Soul Elder level matches, while those girls from Skywater Academy are already participating in Soul Ancestor level matches."

The siblings both had soul power at level thirty-six. One was a Control-type with the ability to fuse soul rings, and the other an Assault-type with flight capability.

Relying on years of coordination and powerful firepower, they had few rivals among Soul Elder level two-man teams.

Moreover, in the previous three matches, they hadn't encountered any teams of water-element soul masters.

Yan knew that, according to the current timeline, Shui Bing'er the strongest in the Skywater Academy team had not yet reached the Soul Ancestor level.

"What do you mean? You've met them?"

Huo Wu nodded, then explained"The group of girls we saw last time were indeed from Skywater Academy. My brother and I formed a two-person team and originally wanted to spar with them, but we didn't get the chance at all."

"What happened?"

"All their two-person teams are cross-level matches, each pair led by a Soul Ancestor level water-element soul master. So even though they're only around level thirty-something, they're all participating in Soul Ancestor level matches."

"I see."

Yan immediately understood everything.

That teacher's approach matched his own—using the rules to challenge higher-level soul masters. Though the chance of victory was lower, it was a better way to push one's potential.

Thinking of something, Huo Wu suddenly smiled:

"Brother Yan, can I ask you a favor?"

"What is it? Go ahead."

"I want to form a two-person team with you. That way, I can also participate in Soul Ancestor level matches and have a chance to face them. Is that okay?"

"This—"

Yan hesitated a bit.

He had originally planned to team up with a Soul King of lower level to compete in Soul King level matches.

Seeing that Yan hadn't given a definite answer, Huo Wu pleaded again "Brother Yan, please say yes. Just a few matches, it won't take much of your time. Among tonight's competing water-element soul master teams, one of them has a member who's already reached level forty-nine. Don't you want to face someone like that?"

"How do you know?"

"They already went up last night and won their match. They've also signed up for tonight."

"All right then, but you'll have to listen to me."

"Okay, no problem!"

Being able to join Soul Ancestor level matches made Huo Wu a little excited.

As for Yan, it might be a chance for a one-against-two situation, which would be a whole new kind of challenge.
