Chapter 631 The Excited Fairy Lin'er
After Xian Lin'er carefully analyzed the situation and issued a solemn warning, Xuan Lao, Yan Shaozhe, and all the team members fell into deep thought.
There is a very contradictory and awkward mood in the current Shrek team.
Elder Xuan still harbored the belief that Shrek Academy was the best in the world, thinking that this year's team was too strong and the championship was already in their grasp. Even with humanoid soul tools, the Ming Dou team was still no match for them.
On the other hand, he was also afraid, afraid that Mingdou Academy might be hiding some secret weapon that they didn't know about, causing Shrek Academy to miss out on the championship.
Under the constant influence of this fear of loss, Elder Xuan kept instructing his team members to be careful while simultaneously hypnotizing and numbing himself: Shrek Academy is the most powerful, and Ming Dou's soul tools are nothing to fear.
He is the current head of the Sea God Pavilion and will never allow Shrek Academy to decline under his leadership.
Yan Shaozhe asked softly, "Lin'er, we've reached this point in our tactical discussion. Do you have any soul-guided devices that can help the children?"
Xian Lin'er glanced at Yan Shaozhe with displeasure, raised her right arm in front of her, and with a flash of blue light, a spear more than ten feet long appeared in her hand.
The spear is predominantly cyan, with gilded patterns adorning the tip, exuding a sharp and imposing aura.
"Xiaofeng, this close-combat soul tool is called the Azure Mist Spear. Keep it safe." Xian Lin'er looked at Captain Lin Xiaofeng with a look of satisfaction.
Lin Xiaofeng hurriedly and respectfully accepted it with both hands.
He could feel it as soon as he picked it up; the gun was of the same wind attribute as himself, and it felt very light, yet contained a destructive power like a hurricane.
Xian Lin'er slowly introduced, "This is a soul tool I designed based on my own martial soul, and it is level eight. Although you cannot unleash its full power now, it is enough to increase your strength by at least 30%, and it also comes with a powerful wind attribute amplification effect."
Her martial soul is the Azure Flame Dragon, a wind-attribute dragon-type martial soul, which is very similar to Lin Xiaofeng's Hurricane Heavenly Gang Dragon. The soul tool designed by Xian Lin'er based on her own experience is perfect for her.
Lin Xiaofeng was deeply moved; this valuable soul tool was enough to show how much Xian Lin'er valued them.
Not only Xian Lin'er, but Qian Duoduo also gave several soul tools to the other main players based on their characteristics.
The two support-type Soul Masters, whose Martial Souls were the Proverb Staff and the Lotus Flower, each received a defensive Soul Guidance Device, a uniquely shaped shield.
This is the soul-guided shield that Qian Duoduo designed based on his own martial soul, the Black Dragon Shield, possessing considerable defensive capabilities. With their respective shields and the protection of a defensive soul master, even if surrounded and focused by the enemy, it would be difficult to defeat them in a short time.
"Thank you, Dean Lin'er and Dean Qian." The key players, overjoyed to receive the gifts from the two deans, expressed their gratitude.
Both Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo's eyes revealed a kind of elder's affection. No matter how much they disliked Yan Shaozhe, their care for these younger generations was always selfless.
As she spoke, she gave Yan Shaozhe an annoyed look: "I'm going to teach Xiaofeng and the others how to use these soul tools, so I won't bother you anymore. Everyone else should get some rest too."
Yan Shaozhe did not stop him, but simply nodded slightly: "The hotel has a lobby specially prepared for athletes' training, which is downstairs."
"Hmm." Xian Lin'er didn't say anything more to Yan Shaozhe, and walked out the door with Qian Duoduo and several main team members.
Yan Shaozhe didn't follow. He knew that Xian Lin'er's attitude towards him had been cold for the past few years, and she almost never took the initiative to talk to him. It was already quite unexpected that she would say a few more words to him today because of the competition and her guidance to the younger players.
He was also sensible enough not to provoke Xianlin'er any further. The hotel competition had reached the semi-finals, and most of the academy teams had already been eliminated. It was evening, and with no other teams training in the large lobby, the Shrek team had very little space to move around.
Xian Lin'er carefully instructed the team members on the key points of using these soul tools.
Lin Xiaofeng wielded the Azure Mist Spear, and the light wind attribute all over his body became as swift as the spear.
After the main force members who received the soul tools practiced using them several times, the other team members also listened attentively to a theoretical lesson on the use of soul tools given by Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo.
In particular, the two deans of the Soul Guidance Department repeatedly emphasized some details that martial soul disciples usually do not pay much attention to, in order to better utilize the performance of the soul guidance device.
All the team members benefited greatly and nodded repeatedly. Now, soul tools are standard equipment for martial soul disciples, and everyone is equipped with several that suit them.
You can, but not without.
After the lecture, Xianlin'er smiled from the bottom of her heart: "Children, you are all great. Keep fighting with all your might. You will always be the pride of Shrek Academy, and your parents will be proud of you too."
Looking at these promising young people, she felt as if this was all there was to her remaining life.
Although Xian Lin'er usually has a fiery temper, her unpretentious personality makes the inner court disciples very close to her.
One of the team members, who usually has a somewhat quirky personality, joked, "Still proud? We Shrek Academy has really embarrassed ourselves these past few days."
"What do you mean?" Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo frowned at the same time.
Team leader Lin Xiaofeng suddenly remembered something and quickly stepped forward to stop him, whispering in his ear, "What are you saying? Do you think Dean Lin'er and Dean Yan's relationship isn't strained enough?"
The team member realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly covered his mouth to deny it: "I'm sorry, Dean, I was just talking nonsense."
Xian Lin'er didn't let him off the hook, pressing him for details: "What's shameful? Explain the whole story to me."
Helpless, Lin Xiaofeng took out a copy of the Douling Empire's monthly newspaper and handed it to Xian Lin'er. The newspaper was filled with news about this year's competition. In addition to the competition results, the front page prominently featured a major event related to Shrek Academy.
That was during a match between the Douling Team and the Mingdou Team when a powerful figure from Shrek Academy suddenly intervened, exchanging barbs with the head of Mingdou Academy. The scale of the incident was so large that it was embarrassing, and it was witnessed by tens of thousands of spectators.
With so many witnesses, the news couldn't have been kept secret. It was only published in the newspaper. The author used a lot of subtle language to save face for all parties, but some ridiculous things can still be seen between the lines.
News such as the fact that the dean of Shrek Academy is actually a descendant of an evil soul master, and the Soul Master Hall being challenged by a newly emerging academy... has spread throughout Douling, but it hasn't reached Shrek yet. Therefore, Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo, who had just arrived in Douling, were unaware of this and only learned about this farce at this moment.
As she looked at the contents of the newspaper, her eyes suddenly lit up, revealing excitement, and her hand holding the newspaper trembled slightly.
Xianlin'er didn't care about the details of the incident at all; she only saw two names she was very concerned about in the report.
Qian Duoduo wanted to remind her not to lose her composure in front of the students, but she was stunned when she saw the content herself.
"Let's go, Lao Qian, let's go see Gu Yi and Yu Hao."
Before he could react, Xianlin'er had already grabbed his hand and run out of the hall, leaving the Shrek Academy team members staring at each other in bewilderment.
