Flande introduced Master to Zhao Wuji, and Zhao Wuji respectfully said, "So you are Master, I've heard much about you. I am Zhao Wuji."
Master's stiff face barely managed a smile, "Not so famous, Unmoving Ming King, don't stand on ceremony. I've come this time to stay here for a while, to learn about your teaching methods with Xiao Yu and the others, and see if there's any room for improvement."
Flande was delighted inside, knowing that his brother had a great approach to teaching students, definitely better than his own.
"Alright, I can give you all the authority at the academy. Feel free to arrange things, just inform me of any important matters."
At this time, Ye Yu and the others were devouring delicious food in the cafeteria when Master came in.
Ye Yu and Tang San said happily, "Teacher, you're here."
Master nodded, glanced at the table, and nodded approvingly, "Though I don't know how Flande is teaching you, the meals are good. You are all at a growing age, at this stage, you need to eat well."
Ma Hongjun complained, "It was after Boss Yu came that we started eating well. Before, our food was terrible."
Oscar, recalling the past, lamented, "We used to hold a cornbread roll, and there wasn't a drop of oil in our food."
Flande, who had come along, glared at Oscar and Ma Hongjun, and the two of them immediately shrank back, not daring to speak further.
Master said seriously, "No matter how tough the academy's finances, we can't be sloppy about meals."
Flande nodded, "Understood."
The others were amazed, wondering who Ye Yu and Tang San's teacher was, that even the dean had no temper with him.
They thought Master was great, at least he let them eat well, so their first impression of Master was good.
Master said, "Tomorrow morning meet after breakfast, I will guide you."
After Master left, Oscar said, "Boss Yu, your teacher seems nice, we'll have good days ahead."
Ye Yu smiled and reminded, "For you, it's going to be tough days."
"Hm? Tough days? Why?" Oscar was taken aback; after all, Master seemed nice.
Ye Yu gave a mysterious smile, "You'll find out tomorrow."
The next morning.
Ye Yu and the others got up early and reached the cafeteria, where a sumptuous breakfast was ready.
The food was delicious, but it was cold.
After having their fill, everyone gathered at the playground.
At this moment, the sun had just risen, illuminating everything with vitality.
Master stood sternly with his hands behind his back, "After breakfast, you can't engage in intense exercise immediately. So, I hope you finish breakfast at dawn from now on. If you haven't digested food before training starts, you'll just have to endure it. If someone can't get up and misses breakfast time, they'll train on an empty stomach."
Seeing Master's serious demeanor, Oscar and the others immediately understood that Master might be stricter than Dean Flande.
Master continued, "Starting today, I will conduct intensive training for you. Dai Mubai, step forward."
Dai Mubai stepped forward, and Master said, "Starting now, you will fight and knock them all down one by one, except for Ye Yu, of course."
Hearing the first part, Dai Mubai was startled, but since Ye Yu was excluded, he was somewhat relieved. However, he didn't feel entirely at ease, as Tang San was formidable.
"Tang San, you go first." Master reminded, "You can't use your third soul skill or special weapons."
Tang San nodded, and Dai Mubai was surprised, suggesting, "Master, that's not fair. My soul power is higher than Xiao San's, and you're not only holding him back but also limiting him?"
"Though your soul power is higher, if he uses his third soul ring, you won't stand a chance. The Control Type is the strongest in one-on-one, and he just obtained the External Soul Bone, and even though he can't freely use it yet, it has greatly transformed him. If you want him to use his third soul skill, you can, as companions, you need to understand each other."
Though Dai Mubai felt a bit discouraged, he understood the reasoning. When they first met, he had experienced Tang San's strength.
As the two began to battle, Oscar and the others watched with eyes wide open as the fight was spectacular. Apart from Ye Yu, Dai Mubai and Tang San were the strongest among them.
It was time to determine who was the second strongest among the Seven Monsters and One Demon.
When Tang San used his third soul skill, a large net quickly descended, and Dai Mubai couldn't dodge, the net rapidly contracted, wrapping him up like a dumpling.
Dai Mubai clawed with his tiger paws, but soon a strong sense of paralysis and burning spread through his body, even in his White Tiger Vajra Transformation state, he couldn't shake off the feeling.
As a Beast Martial Soul Master, Dai Mubai tried to struggle free, but Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was not ordinary. As he struggled, the soul power consumption accelerated, and the paralysis grew stronger, while the Blue Silver Grass tightened even more.
"That's enough."
Master spoke, and Tang San retracted the Blue Silver Grass, which absorbed the toxins, leaving Dai Mubai thoroughly convinced of his loss.
Tang San helped Dai Mubai up and explained, "This is my third soul skill, Spider Web Binding."
Master explained, "Control Attack is weak, but the Control Power is strong. Generally, an outstanding Control Type can control an opponent with a soul power gap of ten levels or less. As a Strong Attack Type, your nemesis is the Control Type, and when encountering them, you should maintain a distance and be cautious. If you're controlled, no amount of strength will help. No Soul Master is perfect; each has their strengths and weaknesses..."
"Master."
Just as Master was speaking, Ma Hongjun interrupted, saying, "There must be perfect Soul Masters, like Boss Yu."
Master: "..."
Master nodded, "Yes, Ye Yu is an exception."
Master continued, "Apart from someone like Ye Yu, no Soul Master is perfect, so teamwork is crucial to complement each other's strengths. Perfect coordination requires excellent rapport. Hence, I will not only train each of you individually but also cultivate your teamwork and unity."
"Alright, let's continue. Next, Ma Hongjun and Oscar will team up against Dai Mubai."
Dai Mubai began to spar with the two, and after finishing, he felt depressed, having lost.
Dai Mubai was not convinced, "If I were at my peak, he couldn't beat me."
Master said sternly, "Even though you've lost some strength after fighting Tang San, I reminded you at the start you'll face them in succession. In your state, you could have won. Ma Hongjun's attack power is strong, but his soul power drains quickly. You knew Oscar had sausage support, so why did you let him eat it?"
Ma Hongjun was smug but was soon reprimanded by Master, who pointed out his mistakes.
Ma Hongjun nodded repeatedly, "Master, I understand."
Then, they continued.
After several rounds of fighting, Master pointed out the mistakes of each person, and everyone found his insights reasonable, becoming aware of the dangers of their errors.
"Alright, next, the final match. You seven will join forces to face Ye Yu."
After Master finished speaking, he looked at Ye Yu and seriously said, "Take this seriously, you can use the External Soul Bone and Voidification."
"Huh??"
Upon hearing Master's words, Dai Mubai and the others panicked at first.
