Douluo: Emerald Poison King

Chapter 140: Reality is even more outrageous than imagination

After about two hours, the battle on the field was finally over.

As the captain, Dugu Yan selected ten people from the dozen or so students to join the team.

The college team has seven starting players and seven backup players to prevent anyone from being available in case something unexpected happens to the starting players. It also allows for temporary adjustments to be made based on the enemy's formation.

The original dozen or so people were the result of several careful screenings. They were actually all qualified to be candidates for the team, but some of them, although their soul power and martial spirits were good, still lacked talent in battle.

Either they are too stupid to fight and don't know how to adapt. Or they are not brave enough to fight and don't have the momentum to fight.

As for the auxiliary spirit master in the team, it is enough to have Ye Lingling. Although Tiandou Royal Academy also has several good auxiliary spirits that can provide attribute enhancement, there is nothing too suitable.

Either the team's coordination ability is poor, or the soul power level is too low to support high-intensity combat.

If these people were disciples of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, or if the amplification provided by their martial spirits was close to that of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Tower, Dugu Yan could still tolerate these shortcomings. After all, the amplification of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Tower was too strong.

But the fact is that these auxiliary spirit masters are still far behind. Whether in terms of their martial spirits or personal qualities, they are simply not up to the challenge of taking on such an intense stage as the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Competition.

Among the ten people selected by Dugu Yan, there was also Ning Zhongze, the spirit master with the precious jade beast spirit that Chen Ming had just noticed. However, Chen Ming did not pay any extra attention to him other than his spirit.

After absorbing the soul ring, the jade beast spirit was still a little lacking.

At the same time, Chen Ming also noticed that Dugu Yan didn't seem to have any intention of keeping his place in the team.

Seeing Chen Ming's confusion, Dugu Yan did not hide it from others and started explaining directly in front of everyone.

"Xiao Ming is stronger than all of us. Even my grandfather Dugu Bo praised his poison, which is more potent than mine. His strength is not on the same level as ours."

"With his current strength, there is no need for him to cooperate with the school team. The Soul Master Competition is still a few years away, and he will grow even more than us during these years."

"By the way, I want to say something here. There are two teams, the main team and the reserve team, with a total of 14 people. The positions of the five of us, Xiao Ming, Ling Ling, Yu Feng, and Oslo, will definitely not be shaken. There are ten of you, and one of you will definitely be eliminated."

"Yes, I will conduct a one-year observation and rate your performance over the course of the year. The one with the lowest score will be eliminated from the competition."

After hearing Dugu Yan's words, the students who were finally selected couldn't help but get agitated for a moment.

They didn't question Chen Ming's strength or anything. After all, Chen Ming beat Yu Tianheng in the ring last year and blew the ring to pieces with one soul skill. Now his legend is spreading in the academy. They don't even dare to compare their strength now.

What's more, he was directly taken to special training by Poison Douluo for more than a year. His talent was recognized by Poison Douluo, and he even announced that he would become his grandson-in-law, which caused a great uproar in Tiandou City at that time. That was Poison Douluo, not just a Titled Douluo, but also a Titled Douluo with exactly the same attributes.

With talent like that, plus more than a year of training, who knows how much he has grown? Who knows to what level his already powerful poison can be developed?
Even if they don't join the school team for training, they can still learn from Poison Douluo.

Even a fool can understand how much growth one can achieve by practicing with a Titled Douluo who has the same attributes as oneself.

These selected students just looked at each other, and some were worried that they would be the ones to be eliminated.

They were all selecting the best from the best, and they all thought highly of themselves. If they were the only one to be eliminated in the final process of selecting nine out of ten, it would be better for them to have been eliminated in the previous round of selection.

Duguyan looked at Chen Ming, asking with his eyes how he was doing, and Chen Ming responded with an encouraging look.

In the following period of time, Duguyan selected a few students and had them practice against each other. He then divided the remaining people into two teams and had them compete against each other.

The best way for soul masters to understand each other is to fight. After a while of colliding with each other, they will be able to understand each other's level.

During the observation period, the members of the previous Tiandou Royal Academy team also commented on the situation. As the participants and runners-up of the previous competition, this group of people made many insightful comments.

When these ten people became familiar with each other during the fight, Dugu Yan organized the ten people into a team, and then he, Ye Lingling, Yufeng and Osro formed a team to fight against each other.

Although Chen Ming had been standing there, seemingly leisurely, Dugu Yan knew very well that Chen Ming's fighting ability was totally beyond the imagination of ordinary spirit masters.

If Chen Ming was also dragged in, no matter which side he joined, it would cause a one-sided massacre on the other side. Even if Chen Ming and his team fought against the fourteen of them, the result would not be much worse.

After all, everyone actually knew that the poison-type soul master was least afraid of human wave tactics. Before the strength had not crossed the threshold, unless he could simply use human wave tactics to consume all the soul power of the poison soul master, otherwise a group of people would only waste some more effort.

Although this level of fighting was just a fight between weaklings for Chen Ming, he could beat up fourteen people including Dugu Yan with his fists within three seconds with his eyes closed and without using his soul power. If he used his soul power, he could even take care of the previous team within three seconds.

However, as a boyfriend who has a close relationship with Dugu Yan, Chen Ming still carefully observed Dugu Yan from the side, encouraging Dugu Yan from time to time. By the way, he used his spiritual eyes to look at the martial spirits and soul skills of these people to see if there was anything he could gain.

Among the fourteen people, Chen Ming could see through thirteen of them, even the strange jade beast spirits. But Chen Ming could not see through Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia.

When Chen Ming first saw the healing power of the Nine-Heart Begonia, he thought it was because his realm was too low and his super martial spirit was too special. But now Chen Ming is sure that the reason why he couldn't see through it at the beginning was indeed because of his low strength, but more importantly, the Nine-Heart Begonia was still too special.

If Chen Ming's spiritual eyes could not see things like soul power and vitality, Chen Ming himself would not have believed it. It turned out that for the Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Spirit, the cost of treating skin injuries and internal injuries was the same.
