Chapter 284: Shinian, I Will Be the Most Loyal Flunky!
Huo Wu quietly watched Feng Xiaotian's performance from the side.
It was clear that she and Feng Xiaotian had gotten together.
Dugu Feng was not surprised; Huo Wu was naturally attracted to strength.
Feng Xiaotian had gained a divine trial and his strength improved rapidly.
Naturally, he won Huo Wu's heart.
Even so, Huo Wu only knew Feng Xiaotian gained his opportunity in Hurricane Canyon; she was unaware of the divine trial.
She and Huo Wushuang and others only knew that Feng Xiaotian had trained with Dugu Feng and Ning Rongrong in Hurricane Canyon, but it seemed they must have experienced something to become so close.
"You're already level sixty-five, right?" Dugu Feng asked Feng Xiaotian.
Feng Xiaotian looked proud. "Without high-rank Soul Emperor strength, how could I live up to being vice dean, how could I deserve Dugu Dean's trust, how could I command so many talented students and teachers?"
Everyone around sighed helplessly.
Feng Xiaotian was showing off again, but everyone was used to his somewhat drifting personality.
After all, those with the wind element were supposed to be more lively.
"All right, all right, Feng Xiaotian, I see there's a duel happening on the training ground, let's go watch together!" Ning Rongrong eagerly interrupted.
She didn't want to hear Feng Xiaotian's nagging.
"You've arrived just in time. This is an internal academy duel to select the strongest Ultimate Battle Team to compete in this round of the Soul Master Competition!" Feng Xiaotian introduced as they walked towards the training ground.
They stopped before the academy's duel platform.
Though only internal, it was sizable, divided into the main and auxiliary platforms.
Teams fought on each platform, with various attribute soul skills blooming in the sky.
It looked like a formal Soul Master Competition.
After watching for a while, Dugu Feng noticed something unusual—the team selection method wasn't what he imagined.
Feng Xiaotian became serious.
He said, "Brother Feng, since we are the Ultimate Academy, we must show ultimate strength.
So we form teams of only one elemental type.
Besides fire, ice, thunder, gemstone, wind, and poison, the academy also developed earth, plant, and exotic beast types.
Each type forms a team to compete.
We focus on team strength; the winner represents the academy at the Soul Master Competition.
This idea encourages teachers and students alike to fully develop their Martial Souls and cultivate true powerhouses!"
Dugu Feng nodded in agreement.
The ultimate path fit his intention.
Selecting the strongest from each type to cooperate might be temporarily strong.
But long-term development wouldn't benefit.
"Ultimate Academy's greatest belief is studying Martial Souls and soul skills, perfecting combinations of soul rings and attributes to their utmost," Huo Wu agreed.
After the five academies merged, they didn't weaken their independence but absorbed each other's experience, advancing together on the ultimate path.
Dugu Feng's gaze swept across each arena.
He found the students' comprehension of soul skills and attribute use far exceeded ordinary Soul Masters.
Coordination between those of the same element was brilliantly close.
Dugu Feng could not help but praise, "This is exactly what I want. It was a waste when your Four Elemental Academy Soul Masters joined the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Fully developing your attribute can make you stronger. We aim to cultivate Title Douluos.
I hope one of you becomes a Title Douluo first!"
Though his tone was calm, a natural authority emerged.
This made Huo Wushuang and Shui Bing'er feel like they were facing a senior—both solemn.
"Don't worry, Brother Feng, I'll compete with you. Who becomes Title Douluo first?" Feng Xiaotian said confidently.
Having gained his divine trial, Feng Xiaotian's confidence was unshakable.
"Tch!" Ning Rongrong disdainfully scoffed, too lazy to argue.
Competing with Brother Feng was self-humiliation.
Divine trial or not, Feng Feng's Killing Domain was also a divine inheritance.
The Wind God was no match for the Asura God.
Dugu Feng said nothing; he truly hoped Feng Xiaotian would become a Title Douluo soon.
Judging from the wind attribute Soul Masters' performance on the stands, Feng Xiaotian's grasp of the wind element had surged.
The wind attribute team's students were stronger than Feng Xiaotian's generation.
Except for Feng Xiaotian's innate full soul power, other students were better than his past peers.
Even the wind team had developed a soul skill fusion.
Seven students could simultaneously cast wind blade skills that formed a tornado storm.
Surely Feng Xiaotian contributed much to this!
It looked like the wind team would represent the Ultimate Academy.
"Brother Feng, the Spirit Hall no longer has a golden generation. Their team reportedly has only one Soul King and is no longer invincible.
I will bring back the championship for you.
Too bad Spirit Hall is stingy; the prize includes no soul bones, only titles, gold, and silver—useless!"
Feng Xiaotian bragged while shaking his head.
Huo Wushuang and the others wanted to kick him—he flaunted too much.
Dugu Feng didn't want to hear his boasting.
He asked Ning Rongrong to continue watching the matches.
He himself ventured deeper into the academy.
Earlier his spirit power had already connected with Shinian.
In the vice dean's chamber deep inside, Dugu Feng met Shinian.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
Shinian bowed with his head down to Dugu Feng.
Dugu Feng slowly sat in his seat, pleased with Shinian's attitude.
His strength had improved, but his mindset remained unchanged.
Indeed, Shinian had reached the Soul Douluo realm.
"You've done well. Take out the pill I gave you!"
Shinian was stunned and quickly opened his mouth.
Suddenly, two jade-green pills appeared.
He clearly remembered swallowing only one from Dugu Feng.
How did it become two?
Taking out the pills, Shinian didn't feel relieved but even more tense.
Biting his teeth, he knelt on one knee and said, "Young Master, please leave one pill for me. I pledge eternal loyalty to you forever!"
Dugu Feng's methods were so strong that the more time passed, the more Shinian respected him.
If the pills were taken away, how could he still earn the young master's trust?
Shinian wanted to be the most loyal flunky!
This became even firmer in his heart after meeting Dugu Feng.
Though he had reached Soul Douluo strength, facing Dugu Feng still felt extremely dangerous.
Shinian believed even as a Soul Douluo, he was not the young master's match.
Such a powerful ally had to be held tightly.
