Simply put.
The Great Soul Arena is a place for Soul Masters to spar and settle disputes.
It's also a place for gamblers to seek thrills.
And, even more so, it's an excellent venue to showcase the strength of various powerhouses and factions.
After listening to Flender's introduction, Tang San frowned, disliking this place somewhat.
"Headmaster, I don't understand. We Soul Masters are a very noble profession, so why should we be like monkeys, put on display for the commoners to watch?"
"Haha... Tang San, you're still too young. Remember, everything exists for a reason."
Flender chuckled softly and shook his head.
He looked up at the Great Soul Arena.
"Indeed, I'm not fond of this place either."
"But without a doubt, the Great Soul Arena is the only place in the world that can provide Soul Masters with a relatively fair environment for combat."
"The reason I brought you here is to make you understand that a Soul Master's practical combat ability is also extremely important, so tonight's lesson will be a Soul Battle!"
Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing listened attentively.
Ma Hongjun wasn't picky, and regardless of whether he saw the old or the young, the fat or the thin, he repeatedly wanted to share his joy with Dai Mubai.
Unfortunately.
Dai Mubai, mindful of Zhu Zhuqing's presence, ignored him completely.
Instead, he glared at Ma Hongjun several times as a warning.
Ye Qiu was busy teasing the little rabbit, taking a few bites of her face, which was as sweet as a peach, leaving shallow teeth marks before putting the mask on her.
Finally, Flender changed the subject.
"My requirement for you is to at least have a Silver Soul Badge by the time you graduate!"
"Huh?"
Xiao Wu put on the mask, revealing only her delicate forehead, eyebrows, and cherry-like mouth.
She had just done the same thing to Ye Qiu.
She couldn't help but feel curious.
"Ye Qiu, is the Silver Soul Badge difficult to get?"
"Not difficult, you just have to keep winning."
Ye Qiu put on his mask, making it impossible to see his expression.
But his words were quite arrogant.
"So that's how it is."
Xiao Wu blinked.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, she only thought that Ye Qiu looked really cool when he was confident!
Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly; the words, though rough, were true.
Ye Qiu was absolutely right.
Flender had initially approved of Ye Qiu's caution when he saw him put on the mask.
However, his expression became strange upon hearing Ye Qiu's words.
He couldn't help but want to scold him a bit, so he shook his head at Ye Qiu.
He then instructed: "Mubai, Hongjun, tell them about the two of your records."
Hearing their teacher's words.
Ma Hongjun immediately put away his lecherous look, wiped his saliva, and cleared his throat.
Before he could say anything, Dai Mubai spoke first.
"Fatty's record is 33 battles, 21 wins, 12 losses, nine points, and an Iron Soul Badge."
"I also have an Iron Soul Badge, with 29 wins, 27 losses, and only two points."
Hearing the scores of Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun.
Xiao Wu just stood there, hands on her hips, a bit disdainful.
"I say, you two are too terrible, aren't you? Especially you, Dai the Tiger... You only have two points?"
"What can two points even do? Not enough to fill the gaps in your teeth."
Dai Mubai's expression stiffened.
Especially when he noticed Zhu Zhuqing looking at him, Dai Mubai felt a little embarrassed.
He couldn't help but snort coldly, "Hmph! What do you know? It's not easy to achieve a Silver Soul Badge."
After saying this.
Dai Mubai began to explain the rules of the Great Soul Arena.
There are a total of eight badge levels in the Great Soul Arena on the continent.
They are distinguished by the quality of the minerals.
From lowest to highest, they are: Iron, Copper, Silver, Gold, Purple Gold, Sapphire, Ruby, and Diamond.
The badge upgrade conditions are roughly the same:
Iron Soul Badge to Copper Soul Badge upgrade: 100 points required.
Winning a match +1 point, losing a match -1 point. If you win 5 matches in a row, each additional win adds 10 points. If you win more than 10 matches in a row, each additional win adds 100 points.
Copper Soul Badge to Silver Soul Badge upgrade: 1000 points required.
Battles between Copper Soul Badge holders: each win +10 points, each loss -10 points; the point increase for consecutive wins is the same as for Iron Soul Badge holders.
There are three types of Soul Arena matches: sparring, life-or-death battles, and betting matches.
What Ye Qiu and the others will be participating in is sparring.
Generally, there will be no casualties.
They can only be matched with opponents who are at the same soul power level.
After listening to Dai Mubai's explanation, Tang San grasped the key points.
"So, in this case, someone who has just broken through to Soul Elder will have to face a Soul Elder at level thirty-nine?"
"That's right, most of my losses came right after I broke through to Soul Elder," Dai Mubai nodded.
He breathed a sigh of relief as Zhu Zhuqing looked away.
Tang San, however, could only offer a wry smile. Truly, this was the Monster Academy.
Even the graduation requirements were so difficult.
"Hmph! It's all excuses. Ye Qiu and I would never lose!"
"If we keep winning, we'll meet the conditions soon enough."
Xiao Wu snorted coldly, not buying it at all.
Her soul skills were enough to ensure her victory; she had confidence in herself and even more in Ye Qiu.
"You!"
Dai Mubai's eyes blazed with fury, but he didn't dare to lash out.
Flender was helpless. It seemed that Ye Qiu and the other person hadn't taken his words to heart at all.
A hoarse voice, low and deep, spoke.
"Young people shouldn't be too arrogant. Having confidence is a good thing."
"If we're not arrogant, are we even young?"
Ye Qiu raised his hand and put it around Xiao Wu's shoulder, his words and actions casual, but with an extremely strong sense of self-assurance.
"Moreover, Xiao Wu and I have the strength to back it up."
Upon hearing Ye Qiu's answer, not only Flender but also Tang San's eyes lit up.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes rippled with emotion. This kind of confidence, compared to Dai Mubai's excuses, made the difference clear.
"Haha... good, good!" Flender laughed, full of praise. He felt that he could even use this phrase to replace his definition of a good Soul Master in the future.
It's not necessary to cause trouble, as long as there is the youthful spirit of daring to try.
"Then let me see how you perform."
Flender suddenly remembered something.
Ye Qiu actually possessed a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring; he truly had the strength to be so confident.
Without further ado.
Flender left the Shrek Academy students there and went to the spectator seats.
He planned to watch the betting and subsidize the academy's expenses.
"Let's go, we'll register."
Ye Qiu led Xiao Wu towards the registration area.
Tang San and Dai Mubai parted ways for the time being. Together with Zhu Zhuqing, they followed Ye Qiu.
The registration process for duels in the Great Soul Arena was very simple.
Ten Gold Soul Coins were required as a registration fee.
They filled out a form that included their names, ages, birthplaces, and Martial Souls.
Their soul power levels were tested to determine their ranks.
After receiving their initial Iron Soul Badges, their registration was considered complete.
The Great Soul Arena did not prohibit anonymity.
Ye Qiu and Xiao Wu both used code names. Ye Qiu chose One Leaf Knows Autumn, while Xiao Wu went with Soft Bone Charming Rabbit.
At the same time.
Ye Qiu also planned to participate in a two-versus-two soul battle with Xiao Wu.
Among the group from Shrek Academy.
In the one-on-one soul battle arena, Xiao Wu was the first to take the stage.
Xiao Wu's opponent was a Soul Master with a Flame Horse Martial Soul, a forty-second-level attack-type Soul Master.
The outcome was naturally not in doubt.
The opponents that could give Xiao Wu trouble were those with high defense, large size, and the ability to use a domineering body-type attribute.
These types of opponents could effectively counter Xiao Wu's soft techniques.
Wishing you a happy life!
