Chapter 51 The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda
Assessment area.
The elimination round for new students, narrowing down the field from 32 to 16, took place in the afternoon. Compared to the morning, the number of participants had halved. After drawing lots again to determine the competition venues, the 16 teams immediately headed to their respective areas to prepare for the competition.
Huo Yuhao and his two companions arrived at their assessment area right on time. Their opponents had been waiting on the other side for some time.
Unlike Huo Yuhao's group of two men and one woman, the opposing team consisted entirely of women, all of whom were exceptionally beautiful and attractive.
The girl standing at the front was very tall, only about half a head shorter than Huo Yuhao. She had short, platinum blonde hair that looked very neat, long eyelashes above a pair of large, light blue eyes, and a few faint freckles on her face, making her look quite charming and lovely.
Behind her, on her left, was a girl with short red hair. At first glance, she gave off a cool and aloof aura, but upon closer inspection, one would find that her features were extremely delicate and her skin was as white as jade. However, her eyes were cold, and she was clearly not someone to be trifled with.
The girl on the right is in stark contrast to the red-haired girl. Her light green medium-length hair is draped behind her, and her dark green eyes are gentle and tender, making people feel pity for her.
As the six people slowly entered and took their positions, the referee, without waiting any longer, announced, "Both sides, state your names."
"Ning Tian, Class 9, a Level 31 Support-type Soul Master"
Having just finished the round of 64 to 32, Ning Tian and her two companions were immediately faced with Huo Yuhao, a high-level Soul Master who had defeated one of the twin stars of the outer academy, in the round of 16. Their luck was truly terrible, and the odds of losing were extremely high. But regardless of the outcome, Ning Tian had no intention of giving up. Even if she lost, she wanted to try her best before admitting defeat.
Since we're at a disadvantage anyway, why not exchange our information for the enemy's? This way, we can prepare for the battle to come.
Although her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has no offensive function, its auxiliary amplification effect is enough to boost her two Great Soul Master teammates to the Soul Venerable level in a short period of time, which is her biggest advantage in trying to make a comeback.
As the young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and having finally made it this far from the freshman assessment, how could her pride allow her to give up the championship? This is no longer the round-robin ranking tournament before the top 64, but an elimination tournament. Once she loses, it will truly be the end!
She wanted to give it a shot! What if she could win?
Huo Yuhao had already gathered some information about the three Soul Master teams, since memories can be inaccurate or incomplete. He also knew a bit about the three girls in front of him, and he was well aware of Ning Tian's little schemes.
Unlike the previous round-robin ranking matches, he had already decided not to hold back when he encountered the Spirit Fusion Skill of the Lan sisters. Against a Soul Master, he needed to be more serious, and the renowned Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was worthy of his seriousness.
"Class 1, freshmen, Huo Yuhao, level 37 control-type battle spirit master."
"Wang Dong, Class 1, Level 24, Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master."
"Xiao Xiao, Class 1, Level 25 Control-type Battle Soul Master."
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's soul power level, Ning Tian's eyes widened. Although she had heard about it before, she was still somewhat shocked to hear that someone as young as eleven or twelve could possess such cultivation. After all, she came from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and had been using various rare and precious materials to build her foundation and strengthen her vital energy since childhood; she herself was only at level thirty-one.
Even with the constraint of slow cultivation for support-type Soul Masters, other Battle Soul Masters wouldn't necessarily fare much better than her. According to her intelligence, neither of the other two Battle Soul Venerables had surpassed level thirty-three. How did Huo Yuhao manage to do it?
However, the referee wouldn't give her much time to think. After both sides announced their names, he immediately shouted, "The match begins!"
Wang Dong immediately touched the ground with his toes, took a leap, and rushed out. Then, a pair of blue and gold butterfly wings suddenly bloomed, and a dazzling and magnificent brilliance instantly shone throughout the entire venue.
Whether it was Ning Tian, the red-haired girl Wu Feng, or the green-haired girl Nanmen Yun'er, when they saw these butterfly wings, they were all inevitably captivated by the magnificent wings of the Goddess of Light.
There's no way around it, those blindingly bright light bulb-like moths are just too beautiful! No girl could resist taking one last look!
Bathed in the blue-gold light, Wu Feng leaped forward, a surge of intense energy erupting from her body, even faintly accompanied by the roar of a dragon. Her body then abruptly transformed, like a budding flower suddenly ripening into a full, alluring fruit.
She now looked like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, her original freshman uniform torn, revealing the close-fitting leather jacket underneath. A layer of fine, pale red dragon scales covered Wu Feng's body, extending from her left cheek down to her left arm and hand. Then she swung her left arm, about to strike Wang Dong's body.
Faced with this sudden attack, Wang Dong swayed and narrowly dodged Wu Feng's strike.
At the same time, Nanmen Yun'er beside Ning Tian also moved, her body as light as a swallow, her speed so fast it was almost blinding, far surpassing that of Wang Dong and Wu Feng, both powerful attack-type Soul Masters. In a flash, she arrived in front of Xiao Xiao. Just then, Ning Tian, in the distance, suddenly extended his right hand.
"Seven treasures are transformed into crystal."
Ning Tian's body turned slightly in place, and a dazzling seven-colored light suddenly emanated from her body. Where the light converged, a beautiful seven-colored pagoda appeared in Ning Tian's right hand.
The pagoda was crystal clear and radiant, attracting the attention of everyone on the viewing platform as soon as it appeared.
A hint of admiration flashed in Du Weilun's eyes. He nodded slightly and said to Wang Yan beside him, "The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is truly remarkable. Just from its appearance, one can clearly feel the overflowing brilliance of the jewels. No wonder a sect can be as rich as a country."
Wang Yan nodded. This was also the first time he had ever seen the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. The feeling he had experienced from reading about it in books was quite different from seeing it in person.
Du Weilun suddenly asked with interest, "Teacher Wang, what are the chances of Ning Tian and her two girls winning?"
Wang Yan was somewhat helpless. He simply concluded, "As long as Huo Yuhao uses his second soul skill in combination with his third soul skill, Ning Tian and the others will have no chance to fight back."
Du Weiren knew Huo Yuhao to some extent, but he was still somewhat surprised to hear Wang Yan, a theoretical scholar, so certain. This Huo Yuhao was far more monstrous than he had imagined! The thought that this child had already recognized the two deans of the Soul Guidance Department as his godparents made him feel a little heartbroken.
How did such a promising talent end up in the Soul Guidance Department? Should I ask Dean Yan again?
