Wang Nan had no time to concern himself with matters below the arena. Watching Huo Yuhao being carried off, a large amount of spirit power surged into his left leg.
A silver-white moonlight flashed, and Wang Nan was already standing at the spot where he had left a mark at the beginning of the match.
In just this short time, Jiang Nannan and Xiao Xiao had already been sent off the arena by Xi Xi. Although Xu Sanshi, a defense-type Spirit Master, was present, Xi Xi had a helper, and Beibei had entangled him as soon as he arrived.
Just as Xi Xi was about to break Gongyang Mo's spirit tool shield, the next moment, a silver-white light flickered, and Wang Nan appeared between Gongyang Mo and Xi Xi.
Xi Xi showed a look of surprise, her spirit ring flickering as she turned to leave. However, the next moment, she felt the flow of spirit power in her body suddenly stagnate, and the spirit ring that had just lit up instantly dimmed. Immediately after, she heard a Dragon's roar, and she was already carried off the arena.
At this point, the arena was divided into two parts: on one side were Dai Yueheng, Ling Luochen, and He Caitou, and on the other side were the four remaining members of Wang Nan's team, with Beibei surrounded in the middle.
"I concede." Looking at the approaching Wang Nan and the ill-intentioned Xu Sanshi on the other side, Beibei decisively jumped off the arena.
Dai Yueheng watched Wang Nan, adorned with a halo, flicker and charge back up. After barely resisting for a while, he quickly conceded as well.
During the half-year training, it was not the first time Dai Yueheng had faced Wang Nan and Gongyang Mo teaming up. Even with Ling Luochen's help in control, he was no match for the two of them, not to mention that Ye Xiaosheng and Xu Sanshi were also on the field, while his side only had the relatively weaker He Caitou.
The sound of "I am a pig" rang out one after another, and the Fighting Soul Zone was temporarily filled with a lively atmosphere.
"Alright, since you all have a preliminary understanding of each other, we'll stop here for now." When Xuan Zi said this, he clearly looked at Wang Nan, then nodded slightly towards him.
It was not difficult to see from the two confrontation matches that Wang Nan should have had prior knowledge of the several preliminary team members. From the selection of players, it was evident that he clearly knew Huo Yuhao's abilities. Xuan Zi was quite satisfied with a captain who could achieve this.
After saying this, Xuan Zi's expression became serious, and he looked at Huo Yuhao and the other two.
"What I am about to say, the other Disciples already know, but it should be the first time for you three to hear it. With your cultivation, Wang Dong'er, you should have been informed of this matter already, so I will tell you all together now."
Wang Nan's heart stirred, and he vaguely guessed something.
Sure enough, Xuan Zi quickly began to talk about the division of Shrek Academy's Outer Courtyard and Inner Courtyard, as well as the Shrek Supervisory Group.
It was unclear whether the three little ones were fearless, had righteous hearts, or perhaps both. After hearing Xuan Zi's words, they not only did not feel afraid of the Supervisory Group's affairs, but their faces even showed a special gleam.
After listening to Xuan Zi's narration, they almost did not hesitate, all agreeing in unison.
"Good." Xuan Zi also laughed loudly. "After you go back, pack your things. Gather at the academy gate tomorrow morning. According to Shrek's usual practice, before the Soul Duel Tournament begins, you will be taken on your first supervisory mission."
Wang Nan secretly glanced at Xuan Zi.
Is it coming? The strongest Spirit King in history? To be able to retreat unscathed from a Level 98 Super Douluo and even take a Shrek Disciple as a hostage—it's not an exaggeration to call him the strongest Spirit King in history, is it?
Xuan Zi naturally couldn't know about this matter yet. After speaking, he left the Fighting Soul Zone on his own, and the rest of the people then had time to communicate with each other.
Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Nan in his red school uniform, barely managing to suppress his emotions.
"Senior Brother Wang."
"No need to be so formal." Wang Nan also looked at Huo Yuhao, but for a moment, he didn't know what to say. In fact, if he thought about it carefully, he and Huo Yuhao shouldn't be too familiar with each other yet, right?
After thinking for a moment, he decided to start with the recent confrontation match.
"If I remember correctly, you should be able to change the color of your spirit ring, right?"
"Yes." Huo Yuhao nodded, about to release his Spirit again to demonstrate to Wang Nan.
Wang Nan quickly stopped him, "I'm not doubting your ability, but I think a white spirit ring is still too conspicuous."
Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Nan in confusion. Is there a spirit ring weaker than a white spirit ring provided by a ten-year Spirit Beast?
"Actually, 'disguise' is also a profound art. It's not about looking weaker to be less noticeable, but about being more 'reasonable' to be less noticeable. Think about it: you are currently a preliminary team member of the Shrek representative team for the Soul Duel Tournament, representing the word 'Genius' in the eyes of others."
"Do you think it's reasonable for such a person to only have two white spirit rings? People who see you for the first time might not react immediately, but as your spirit rings increase and your fame grows, your disguise will lose its meaning."
"It would be better to simply change the color of your spirit ring to yellow. Although it might appear stronger than a white spirit ring, it can actually achieve a better deceptive effect."
Wang Nan had actually wanted to say these words for a long time. Many people have their first spirit ring as white, but almost no Spirit Master's second spirit ring is still white, and even more so as the number of spirit rings increases later. When Huo Yuhao reveals his Spirit like this, he is undoubtedly telling the opponent that he has the ability to change the color of his spirit ring.
Since that's the case, why not make himself more reasonable from the beginning and not let the opponent guess that he possesses such an ability?
Huo Yuhao nodded thoughtfully. Although he had Tianmeng Iceworm and Ice Empress, two great masters in his spiritual sea, they were Spirit Beasts after all. They were qualified to guide Huo Yuhao in his cultivation, but when it came to these little tricks, they were completely inferior to humans.
Moreover, he had initially agreed to Fan Yu to keep his spirit ring color white to avoid the Martial Soul Department snatching him. But since Yan Shaozhe personally stepped in and brought him back to the Martial Soul Department, there was no longer any need to continue changing it to white.
"Alright, let's go back and pack our things first. The Soul Duel Tournament still has a long time, and if you have any questions, you can always come and ask me then." Wang Nan said, looking up at the other team members. "Everyone, remember to bring your defensive equipment after you go back."
Wang Nan's face became unusually serious, and he finally showed some of the aura of a captain.
"I will say it again, the methods of Evil Soul Masters are unpredictable. Do not relax your vigilance until you are sure the opponent has been completely annihilated. In addition, always be ready to use spirit tools, and don't be stingy with some consumable, one-time spirit tools."
The faces of the main team members all became serious as they looked at Wang Nan. The other preliminary team members also followed suit, unconsciously straightening their backs a few points.
"If you don't have suitable equipment, you can directly ask the academy for it. A life-and-death battle is not a competition."
