Douluo Continent: Now that everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be a simp?

"I've heard that the relationships between your elemental academies are quite good. Didn't you know her before?"

Huo Wu shook her head.

“My father is the dean, and he has a good relationship with the deans of Shenfeng Academy and Tianshui Academy. Shenfeng Academy is closer to our academy, and we often visit each other. But Tianshui Academy is more special. It is farther away from both of our academies, and it only recruits beautiful female students with water attributes, so we younger students naturally don’t have much opportunity to interact.”

"I see."

"However, now that my brother and I are here, we should find an opportunity to get to know them sometime."

"Ah."

The two walked and talked until they reached the rest area again.

There are not many Soul Masters left in the rest area who have not yet participated in the competition.

When they saw Yan and Huo Wu again, they were both surprised and no longer stared at Huo Wu with the same curiosity as before.

Because they had just been watching the battle and witnessed the power of Yan's hellfire, they knew he was not someone to be trifled with.

Yan and Huo Wu went to the floor-to-ceiling window, from where they could clearly see the situation on the entire arena.

Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan stepped onto the arena.

Their opponents were two men in their thirties, who were tall and thin, and looked somewhat sinister, as if they were malnourished.

Through the host's introduction, Yan learned that the two men were level 45 and level 46, respectively.

The competition then officially began.

Both teams released their respective martial spirits and spirit rings.

Both men possessed snake-type martial souls, and their soul rings were three yellow and one purple.

Most snake-type Soul Masters are similar to Dugu Bo, possessing extremely high speed and primarily using venom as their attack method.

When Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan released their respective martial souls, the audience felt a tremendous chill.

Shui Bing'er possesses the top-tier beast spirit Ice Phoenix, along with the best spirit ring configuration of two yellow and one purple rings.

When she stepped onto the ring, she was like a completely different person, her gaze sharp and cold, showing no fear even when facing opponents stronger than herself.

Binglan's martial soul is the Ice Sparrow. Although it is small in size, its icy power is extremely domineering, and it flies at a very fast speed.

Her soul power reached level 49, which is the best soul ring configuration of two yellow and two purple rings.

After the match officially started, it didn't take long for the Ice and Frost duo to effectively limit their opponents.

Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan are both control-type Soul Masters, and the combined power of ice they unleash is quite terrifying.

The two snake-type soul masters were restricted by the cold energy, their movements became sluggish, and they could not use their poison attacks normally. They were quickly defeated.

Chapter 46 Let's get to know each other

After watching the previous duel, Yan gained a better understanding of the attack methods of the Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan duo.

Although Shui Bing'er's soul power is only level 36, on the battlefield she is like a seasoned commander, calm, composed, and full of wisdom.

From the moment the duel began, she had a firm grasp of the entire situation, handling both offense and defense with ease.

She displayed superb combat skills, able to flexibly respond to various situations in the ever-changing battle, and never showed the slightest fear even when facing opponents at the Soul Master level.

Binglan's soul power has reached level 49, giving her the strength of a Soul King. She and Shui Bing'er work together seamlessly, and the ice power they unleash together is destructive and absolutely cannot be underestimated by any opponent.

Yan knew that if he and Huo Wu encountered this combination, winning wouldn't be easy.

After absorbing the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, his body became immune to ice water, but this only applied to energy forms and did not make him immune to physical forms or force impacts.

Physical attacks in solid forms, such as ice, will still have an effect, but the coldness within them will not harm him.

Both Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan possess the ability to fly, which undoubtedly adds more variety and flexibility to their tactics, making them more unpredictable and difficult for opponents to defend against.

Stronger opponents mean greater challenges and more exciting duels. Only by sparring with such opponents can one truly test and improve their own strength.

Like Huo Wu, Yan also looked forward to fighting against the two of them.

After watching that match, they weren't interested in the other matches either.

So the two of them went to the service desk to collect their points and rewards.

Just as I finished receiving the package and was about to leave, I saw Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan walking towards me.

Huo Wu glanced at Yan and said softly:

"Brother Yan, how about we find an opportunity to meet them soon?"

"it is good."

Yan knew that Huo Wu had long wanted to compete with Shui Bing'er.

Both of them are control-type, and their soul power is at level 36. In this battle between fire and water, who will win can only be known after the duel.

Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan also saw Yan and Huo Wu next to the service desk.

Binglan walked over with her head held high, followed closely by Shui Bing'er.

Before the two even got close, Huo Wu greeted them generously.

"Hello. We just watched that match. You guys were amazing, and the match was fantastic."

"Thank you. We saw your duel with the Hammer Brothers, and you both did a great job."

Binglan politely took over the conversation, nodded slightly to Yan behind Huowu, and then continued:

"Young man, was that the Flame Lord Martial Soul you just unleashed on the arena?"

Yan nodded.

"That's right, it's the ancient beast martial soul, Flame Lord."

"No wonder you're so young, yet your soul power has already reached level 44, which is as rare as your martial soul. You're truly a genius soul master."

"you flatter me."

Yan responded modestly, his gaze flickering as he met Shui Bing'er behind Bing Lan's eyes, and he nodded slightly to her.

Shui Bing'er blushed slightly and nodded to Yan in response.

Huo Wu looked at Shui Bing'er and smiled:

"I've watched a few of your matches and know you're Shui Bing'er, the captain of the Tianshui Academy team. To be honest, I'm Huo Wu, the vice-captain of the Chi Huo Academy team. It's a pleasure to meet you."

As Huo Wu spoke, she extended a hand, just like she had done before when she wanted to befriend Yan.

Having been pampered since childhood, Huo Wu may be arrogant, but she is also a straightforward girl.

Shui Bing'er was stunned when she saw this.

She then confirmed her earlier guess: the girl in front of her was indeed from Blazing Fire Academy.

Then, he politely extended a hand and shook hands with Huo Wu.

"So you're the vice-captain of the Blazing Academy team. No wonder you're so amazing. It's a pleasure to meet you."

After Shui Bing'er finished speaking, she turned her gaze to Yan.

"So, this is the captain of your Blazing Academy team?"

Huo Wu glanced at Yan, then chuckled.

“If our Blazing Academy team had such a powerful captain, we would definitely keep him hidden and wouldn’t come here to train.”

Upon hearing this, Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan exchanged glances, looking at Yan with some confusion, before finally feeling relieved.

If this powerful fire-attribute soul master in front of them is also from the Blazing Fire Academy team, and they meet in the Soul Master Competition, their Tianshui Academy probably won't stand a chance.

Shui Bing'er asked softly:

"Then who is this?"

"Stop guessing. I don't know which college he's from either. He's very mysterious. I've only known him for a few days."

Huo Wu spoke, exchanged a smile with Yan, then pointed to Huo Wushuang not far away and introduced him to Shui Bing'er:

“That’s my brother, Huo Wushuang. He’s the captain of our Blazing Fire Academy team.”

"Oh I got it."

Shui Bing'er glanced at Huo Wushuang and immediately realized that he was also a fire-attribute soul master with considerable strength.

Fire Dance continued:

"Shui Bing'er, how about we have a match? Right here on the stage, our Blazing Flame Duo versus your Frost Duo."

Upon hearing this, Shui Bing'er and Bing Lan exchanged a glance and then understood Huo Wu's purpose.

The two nodded and gladly accepted the challenge.

Binglan smiled and said:

"That's exactly what we were thinking. To be honest, I'm Bing'er's senior, and a member of the Tianshui Academy team in the last Soul Master Competition. The reason I formed the Frost Duo with Bing'er was to help her gain experience and fight against higher-level opponents. It seems that you and he temporarily teamed up for a chance to participate in cross-level challenges, right?"

"Yes, you're right," Huo Wu replied without any hesitation.

Binglan turned her gaze to Yan.
