Chapter 246: Focus your attention, Lan Xuanyu

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lan Xuanyu spoke after much consideration, “His Spiritual Power is most probably the strongest one out of everyone here today. Does he really need to participate in the test as well?”

Lan Mengqin fumed, “Who knows if he is just showing off. He intentionally came to participate to boast to everyone about his strength.”

Lan Xuanyu suddenly had the urge to laugh. ‘It’s not only him, I’m afraid you’re one to talk.’ If Bing Tianliang had received the letter of special admittance, how could Lan Mengqin, who was stronger than Bing Tianliang, not have received one as well? They were all powerful youths that came from large backgrounds and most probably had the idea of proving themselves in the test, thus choosing to participate instead of accepting the special admittance.

“What if I used the Ice Wave to stun him?” Dong Qianqiu asked. “My Ice Wave is extremely useful against Spiritual Power.”

Lan Xuanyu said, “If not for it being a single-elimination open tournament, our technique will definitely suffice.”

Dong Qianqiu glanced at him; she naturally understood that he was talking about their Martial Soul Fusion technique, the Deep Blue Gaze.

At that time, they were able to stun a 10,000-year soul beast in place. Although Yuanen Huihui was very strong, it was impossible to compare his physical capabilities to that of a 10,000-year soul beast. And as a long range attacker, his defence would not be too strong. As soon as he got frozen, it would become easy.

The two nodded their heads quietly as a tacit understanding formed between the two.

Lan Mengqin looked at Lan Xuanyu suspiciously then to Dong Qianqiu. “Why’re you acting all mysterious?”

Lan Xuanyu smiled and did not say a word, while Dong Qianqiu whispered, “I’ll tell you when we get back. The only thing we can hope now is for the later competition to be different from this single-elimination open tournament.”

Lan Xuanyu smiled. “In fact, we don’t have to be too worried about him. He has a fatal flaw. He is too egoistic. Although he is indeed strong, any powerful individuals will have their flaws. His problem lies in his personality, and we can exploit it easily to gain a victory.”

“Then let us wait and see,” Lan Mengqin said. “But I feel that although he is egoistic, he is also very cunning. I hate people like him the most. Why is he prettier than a girl? And it’s the same for you. If not for the fact that Qianqiu is prettier than you, I would have beaten you up. Humph, humph.” With that, she turned and left.

Lan Xuanyu looked at Dong Qianqiu, who rolled her eyes and turned to leave as well.

Qian Lei scratched his head and commented, “Why can’t I understand girls? Are they jealous? But there isn’t a reason for them to be?”

Liu Feng immediately pulled him. “Let’s go back and train. We should prepare ourselves well before the battles.”

Unbeknownst to them, after the competition had ended and the participants had returned to the guest house, Xiao Qi and all the judges had gathered together.

“Yiyi, tell me, what’s going on with those boys you were responsible for?” Xiao Qi looked toward Ling Yiyi with curiosity.

They were long aware of Yuanen Huihui’s existence, so they were not surprised at his five-rings cultivation. But what truly shocked them was the first battle because even with their eye power, they were unable to clarify as to what had happened and how Lan Xuanyu actually won.

“President is extremely attentive toward Lan Xuanyu as well. He has a unique bloodline.” The beauty, Zhang Chenyu, added in.

Ling Yiyi replied helplessly, “I still can’t make heads or tails over the matter. I only know that this Lan Xuanyu is extremely good at creating miracles. Don’t look down on his mediocre strength. Even Bing Tianliang, the strongest from Heaven Luo Planet, was toyed with by him. Ling Tian Academy was almost decimated because of him the last time. Otherwise, how could they become the first rankers in Heaven Luo Planet with an entire team of two Soul Rings each.”

“If we have to specify the most unique part about him, I think that it is his bloodline. His bloodline is extremely unique. At that point of time after being engaged by their opponents’ attack, it caused their Martial Souls to lose effect. This means that their auras had overlapped in that instant.”

“I have done some preliminary research on his blood, and it is truly special,” Zhang Chenyu said. “Even the president feels that way too. His blood was capable of directly absorbing the vitality from the life energy before running away, as though it had its own intelligence. President said that his bloodline should contain some extremely powerful dragon-related bloodline. Even if it is one of a True Dragon Martial Soul, it is already a top-notch existence. And it is even a Twin Martial Soul, so there’s the possibility of him possessing two True Dragons’ bloodlines. So if his opponent had a dragon-related Martial Soul, I wouldn’t have found it weird that his bloodline was suppressed.”

“No, it’s not normal,” said Xiao Qi. “Even if the dragon-related Martial Soul was surprised, in a situation where their cultivations are stronger than his, it should not have led to the crumbling of their Martial Souls and made them useless! Furthermore, Li Han and Jia Yu’s Martial Souls are not dragon related but related to the rare ocean type. For ocean-type Martial Souls to actually be suppressed to this extent is simply unthinkable. And Li Han is even a four-ring Soul Master. If it was truly induced by the bloodline suppression, then it seems that Lan Xuanyu’s Martial Soul possesses even more oppression toward ocean-related Martial Souls. This is indeed weird. Is his Martial Soul not related to the ocean one bit?”

“I was about to touch on this,” Zhang Chenyu said. “He is indeed worthy of research.”

“Are you going to cut him into pieces and research on him?” Ling Yiyi asked.

Zhang Chenyu rolled her eyes at her. “In any case, we have been told to focus our attention on him.”

Xiao Qi squinted his eyes and spoke up, “I have a thought. In our records of Lan Xuanyu, the majority of his battles were him focusing on being the support. Under his support, his teammates had shown a distinct increase in strength. So if his Martial Soul is also related to the ocean, doesn’t that mean he can enhance ocean-related Martial Souls?”

Ling Yiyi pondered on it. “This is possible. I feel that it is worth a try.”

Xiao Qi said, “Chenyu, you can report the matter to the president. Yiyi, find Li Han and his team, and bring Lan Xuanyu over. Find a reasonable purpose and bring them into the simulation cabin to give it a go. Inform Li Han’s team to work together. If the test is successful, there is no harm in giving them another chance at the semi-finals.”

Ling Yiyi was startled. “Is that doable?”

Xiao Qi laughed. “Rules are dead, humans are alive. If Lan Xuanyu can bring them an immense strengthening effect, then it has a whole other meaning to keep them here. We can invite the president to ascertain it. The prerequisite is that the strengthening works.”

“Then let me tell them that if the test is successful, we will give them another opportunity, it would be more apt.”

“Let’s go with that, then.”

At the moment, Lan Xuanyu was already back in his room and recounting everything that had happened to Ji Hongbin.

Upon listening about the day, even Ji Hongbin was startled. “You really have no idea how it happened?”

Lan Xuanyu had a helpless look on his face. “I really don’t know!”

Ji Hongbin suddenly laughed a gratifying laugh and even patted Lan Xuanyu on his shoulder.

“Teacher, what happened to you? Is something wrong?” Lan Xuanyu rarely saw Ji Hongbin laugh, much less a real laugh that came from the bottom of his heart. So his hairs stood when this teacher of his started laughing.

Ji Hongbin replied, “Nothing’s wrong; but very good, I can definitely confirm that you’ll be enrolled into the school.”

“Ah? Enrolled? But the semi-finals aren’t over yet!” Lan Xuanyu exclaimed in surprise.

Ji Hongbin smiled. “Have you forgotten Shrek Academy’s motto? They only accept monsters, not ordinary people. They will never let go of someone like you, a Soul Master with such peculiarity. Even if you fail the tests, I believe the academy will keep you. Even if it is as a probationary student, they will definitely make you stay. I can definitely confirm that Shrek has never seen all the special abilities you have displayed. Just like what Qian Lei had mentioned before about Ling Yiyi reaching out to him for early admittance. I actually believe in him, because his Martial Soul is also unique and holds great research meaning. Now I firmly believe that the two of you will get into Shrek.”

Lan Xuanyu was startled but quickly calmed himself down. “Teacher, you must never tell Fatty this guess of yours. He has finally decided to work hard through much difficulty today. It is good to give him the pressure. If he doesn’t have pressure, he will definitely skive.”

Ji Hongbin laughed, “I’m not worried about that. It isn’t that easy to skive upon entering Shrek. In fact, I was one of the lazy ones back then. But when you come here and experience the environment here, it makes it impossible to be lazy around, furthermore, there’s…”

At this point, Ji Hongbin paused and looked at Lan Xuanyu’s curious expression before continuing, “Wait ’til you become a real member of Shrek Academy. You will naturally find out everything. Now isn’t the time for you to know. However, there are some basic things that I can tell you.”
