Lanba Academy
After a month of continuous effort, the seven prodigies of Shrek Academy had finally reached Yu Xiaogang's goal: each of them had earned a Silver Dou Soul Badge and had formed a Silver Dou Soul battle team.
Without the Royal Dou Team participating, they had actually achieved this goal even more easily.
In a private room at the Soto Grand Dou Soul Arena, the seven prodigies were either standing or sitting, most of them still showing excitement on their faces.
After all, having no opponents in the Soto Grand Dou Soul Arena and achieving such results was indeed impressive. Their talents were already exceptional to begin with.
Soon, several teachers from Shrek Academy,Frand, Yu Xiaogang, and Zhao Wuji,entered the room one by one.
Seeing them come in, the seven prodigies all stood up and gathered together, whether standing or sitting.
"Dean!"
"Master!"
"Teacher Zhao!"
After exchanging greetings, Frand laughed heartily and spoke first:
"First of all, I want to congratulate you. In such a short time, you have completed part of the academy's graduation requirements, becoming holders of the Silver Dou Soul Badge and forming a Silver Dou Soul battle team."
"You little monsters, I am proud of you. Shrek Academy is proud of you!"
Upon hearing this, the seven prodigies smiled broadly.
However, Frand's expression soon became somewhat awkward. He stepped aside and said:
"For the arrangements ahead, let the Master explain."
Yu Xiaogang's expression was cold and stern, without a trace of a smile. He stepped forward, hands clasped behind his back, and said in a deep voice:
"You have done very well, bringing a perfect conclusion to the first phase of physical training and the second phase of Dou Soul training. But that is not enough,you still have a third phase: soul power training."
"However, your third phase of soul power training will not be at Shrek Academy, but in Tiandou City. There is a senior soul master academy there. Its dean is familiar with Dean Frand and can accept students from Shrek Academy."
"This third phase of training will allow you to use the academy's cultivation resources and environment to rapidly improve your soul power. The ultimate goal…"
"…is to prepare for the All-Continent Senior Soul Master Tournament in just over a year. This is an event only senior soul master academies can participate in. Outstanding students under twenty-five, cultivated by various academies, will compete in individual and team battles to test their abilities."
"The benefits are countless, and I won't go into details here. My expectation for you is that in the next All-Continent Senior Soul Master Tournament, you achieve first place in your division. Then, in the following tournament, achieve first place overall. Although you will not officially represent Shrek Academy, you can use the name of the Seven Prodigies of Shrek to become the true number one in the continent!"
Frand's melancholy expression lightened slightly. Shrek Academy as an institution might become a thing of the past, but the Seven Prodigies would truly shine.
For the Seven Prodigies present, the title "Number One in the Continent" was deeply inspiring. Given their age, each of them could participate in at least two All-Continent Senior Soul Master Tournaments.
However, when Tiandou City was mentioned, they could not help but think of one person: Wang Li.
They had first met him in a small town a hundred miles from the Star Dou Forest when hunting souls. That encounter had left a deep impression. Unlike Tang San and Xiao Wu, who had entered the Junior Soul Master Academy together, Wang Li kept skipping grades.
The next time they met, Tang San and Xiao Wu had soul power level twenty-nine, while Wang Li had already reached level forty and was a quasi-Soul Ancestor.
At this point, in their eyes, Wang Li was likely already a true Soul Ancestor.
Thinking of this, the seven prodigies had varying expressions. Tang San looked displeased because his Blue Silver Grass was inferior to Wang Li's. Xiao Wu also looked unhappy, worried about encountering a Titled Douluo-level expert in Tiandou City.
The remaining five of the Seven Prodigies were also deeply thoughtful. Among peers their age, only Wang Li was completely incomparable.
Then Ma Hongjun quietly asked:
"Could the senior soul master academy in Tiandou City be the Tiandou Royal Academy?"
Yu Xiaogang's face darkened at this. Not only had Ma Hongjun's remark failed to inspire them, it lowered their morale. He immediately spoke:
"Don't even mention Tiandou City. Even if it is the Tiandou Royal Academy, its dean is the current Snow Night Emperor. Not just anyone can approach him easily."
"Moreover, the Royal Academy is full of aristocratic playboys. Though the facilities are complete, the academic atmosphere is poor. I don't want you to pick up such habits, so we will not go to the Royal Academy."
"The academy we will go to is called Lanba Academy. As a senior soul master academy able to establish itself in Tiandou City, its foundation cannot be underestimated. It will also bring significant improvement to you."
At this, Yu Xiaogang also felt curious. If he did not know it was directly affiliated with the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Sect, he might have thought Lanba Academy had some special connection to his own sect.
He continued:
"I know what you are thinking, but I can tell you this,you are not inferior to anyone. After the first phase of physical training and the second phase of Dou Soul training, you have gained unyielding willpower and teamwork. All you lack is an opportunity, and you can soar to unprecedented heights."
"Also, you will have a three-month holiday to adjust your state. After three months, we will set out for Tiandou. Rest well and balance work with rest."
Hearing this, the five prodigies,excluding Tang San and Xiao Wu,were completely invigorated.
Compared to Tang San and Xiao Wu, they were not as familiar with Wang Li. Although they felt some pressure, it did not weigh heavily on them.
Only Tang San and Xiao Wu felt conflicted. If they met Wang Li again, they did not know how to face him.
As the holiday began, among the Seven Prodigies, some went shopping, some acted as loyal followers, some enjoyed entertainment, and some devoted themselves to forging…
The one devoted to forging was undoubtedly Tang San. He firmly believed that the Tang Sect's hidden weapons were unrivaled.
What was a Soul Ancestor? As long as he could forge the Tang Sect's top hidden weapons, he could change the world and stand at the peak of the continent.
A mere Wang Li would never be his match!
Thinking this, Tang San's expression grew nearly frenzied, and he swung his hammer with increasing force.
