The Glory of the Sun and Moon in the Peerless Tang Sect

As he spoke, he took out a crystal-like token from his soul tool and placed it in Xu Zihuang's hand.

"This is our Soul Guidance Department's identification number. With it, you can freely enter and exit any part of the Soul Guidance Department."

"Soul tools have developed rapidly in recent years. However, the true foundation of us Soul Masters still lies in our Martial Soul, and it's commendable that you, Yu Tianhuang, recognize this. If you like soul tools, you can try them out after you reach the Title Douluo level in the future. But for now, I still hope you focus on your Martial Soul. Your talent in Martial Soul cultivation is extremely rare in the tens of thousands of years of Shrek Academy's history. Don't waste such a good talent." At this moment, Yan Shaozhe also spoke.

"By the way, Viren, Teacher Li from the Inner Court recently refined five Soul Ascension Pills. Go and fetch three of them later as a reward for this year's freshman assessment champion."

Chapter 106: The Freshman Assessment Ends

The Soul Ascension Pill and the Mysterious Water Pill are pills of the same level.

The Mysterious Water Pill cleanses the marrow and enhances the potential of a Soul Master, while the Soul Ascension Pill strengthens the Soul Master's cultivation.

If a level 31 Soul Master were to consume this, it would essentially allow them to reach the level 32 bottleneck, or even directly increase their Soul Power by one level.

Basically, it falls within this category. The higher a Soul Master's cultivation level, the less significant the effect of taking the Soul Ascension Pill becomes. Conversely, for Soul Masters with lower cultivation levels, a single Soul Ascension Pill can definitely reduce their arduous training time.

It can be considered one of the top-tier elixirs.

Moreover, only a very small number of plant-type soul masters can make Soul Ascension Pills, and the annual production will not exceed twenty pills, which are basically consumed internally.

The fact that even Xu Zihuang's father, with his immense power, couldn't obtain one for him speaks volumes about its rarity. This truly makes it priceless.

Although Yan Shaozhe didn't say it explicitly, everyone could tell that he was competing with Qian Duoduo.

Qian Duoduo was furious. "Yan Shaozhe, what do you mean?"

Yan Shaozhe shrugged innocently. "I'm very satisfied with this year's freshmen. Is there a problem with increasing the rewards for the freshmen assessment?"

Qian Duoduo almost fainted from anger. Ever since they entered Shrek Academy when they were young, he had always been suppressed by Yan Shaozhe.

Whether it's talent, ability, or even verbal arguments, he has never gained the upper hand.

He really wanted to beat Yan Shaozhe up, but if they fought, he wouldn't be a match for Yan Shaozhe.

It's no exaggeration to say that even if Yan Shaozhe gave him a handicap, he wouldn't have a chance at all.

Xu Zihuang was delighted to see Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo going head-to-head, knowing that their promises to him would only become more and more substantial.

He outwardly feigned fear, but inwardly he was thinking that the two of them should just continue arguing like this.

The more he fights, the more benefits he receives.

Finally, after being persuaded by Du Weiren and Fan Yu, the two gave up.

Yan Shaozhe still had a gentle smile on his face, but Qian Duoduo looked furious.

Unbeknownst to them, the Ning Tian team and the Xie Huan Yue team, who were competing in the assessment venue, had already determined the winner.

Although Xie Huanyue's individual strength was formidable, his teammates Luo Tianlong and Luo Tianba did not possess high-quality martial souls or high-level soul power. Their overall strength was clearly weaker than Ning Tian and his companions.

Amplified by Ning Tian's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul, the brothers Luo Tianlong and Luo Tianba were both crushed out of the competition. In the end, only Xie Huanyue remained, unable to hold on any longer, and unfortunately suffered a defeat.

Evil Soul Moon's martial soul, the Pipi Elephant, possesses astonishing defensive power. Ordinary attacks are definitely insufficient to break through its ball-like defense. There are only two methods: one is an extreme attribute attack, such as high-temperature flames or ultra-low-temperature freezing; the other is extreme sharpness.

Wu Feng's Red Dragon Martial Soul perfectly satisfies the requirement of high-temperature flames.

Thus, the freshman assessment finally determined the two teams that would advance to the finals.

Both Yu Tianhuang's team and Ning Tian's team came from Class 9 of the freshmen program led by Mu Jin.

Mu Jin, basking in the glow of triumph in the stands, hadn't felt this happy in a long time since her defeat to Zhou Yi. The freshman class advisors offered their congratulations; the champion and runner-up were from the same class. This was unprecedented in the history of Shrek Academy's freshman assessments.

"Yu Tianhuang, go back to your teammates first. I'm really looking forward to your performance in the finals." Yan Shaozhe's smile remained unchanged.

"Also, what I said before still stands. You're a smart kid, and I believe you should know how to choose."

Xu Zihuang stood up and bowed to the crowd before leaving the stands.

The vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department, Qian Duoduo, was completely dejected. His enthusiasm was low, and he only gave Xu Zihuang a perfunctory response.

Aside from having a bit of money, their Soul Guidance Department doesn't really have any advantage over Martial Soul Departments in other aspects.

Du Weilun approached the four teams and announced in a deep voice, "This afternoon, the Yu Tianhuang team and the Ning Tian team will determine the champion and runner-up of this year's freshman assessment. The team that wins between the Xie Huanyue team and the Dai Huabin team will be third place. Alright, you can go back and rest now, and prepare well for the afternoon's competition."

The four teams stand in a vertical line, with the team leader at the front.

Next to Xu Zihuang was Ning Tian, ​​and to Ning Tian's right was Cui Yajie, the only one in Dai Huabin's team from Class 5 of the freshmen who was not injured. Finally, there was Xie Huanyue.

As soon as Du Weilun finished speaking, Ning Tian suddenly stepped forward.

"Director Du, I think we don't need to have the final match with Yu Tianhuang's team. We concede."

At this point, Ning Tian's gaze shifted to Xu Zihuang beside him, revealing a captivating smile.

Facing Yu Tianhuang, they had little chance of winning, so making this decision wasn't difficult.

Moreover, if it were Yu Tianhuang, she would be willing to set aside all her pride.

On the other side, Cui Yajie also stepped forward with a wry smile.

"Director Du, the teacher from the treatment department just said that Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu definitely won't be able to come back for this afternoon's assessment. We admit defeat."

After a moment of contemplation, Du Weiren slowly nodded.

Admitting defeat is entirely in accordance with the rules.

In that case, the rewards and class assignments for new students can be moved forward.

And so, without a final round, the top three in this year's freshman assessment were determined.

As classmates, the six members of the two teams from Class 9 walked out of the assessment area together to go to the cafeteria for lunch.

Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian walked at the front, while Wu Feng lagged slightly behind, keeping a close eye on the two who were chatting and laughing.

Nanmen Yun'er and Ya Lu, who had known each other since childhood, naturally got together, leaving poor Tuoba Yu alone following behind the others.

Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian both possessed special backgrounds and were highly knowledgeable. They could basically launch into any topic, and the other could readily respond. This caused Wu Feng to experience a separation of the physical barrier, a source of envy.

You should know that Ning Tian has never smiled so frequently when he is with her.

Under Xu Zihuang's deliberate guidance, the conversation turned to Ning Tian's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul.

"You don't need to be so modest. If your martial soul could evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, it would definitely be one of the most powerful auxiliary weapon martial souls in the world."

Ning Tian looked wistful, reached out her jade-like hand to twirl the slightly messy golden hair by her temples, her delicate nose wrinkled slightly, making her exceptionally charming.

"Since our ancestor Ning Rongrong, no one in the clan has evolved their martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. I'm afraid there won't be much change in my generation either."

Xu Zihuang's mind stirred slightly as he recalled the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye located in the center of Sunset Forest.

He has a way to evolve Ning Tian's martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, but he has to weigh the pros and cons. He also has to consider whether Ning Tian can help him.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is, after all, an ancient sect originally from the Douluo Continent. It would be very difficult to utilize it.

Chapter 107 Rewards and Core Disciples

That afternoon, all the new students who had passed the assessment gathered at Shrek Square, waiting for the upcoming class assignments.

Standing at the forefront of the students were Du Weilun, the director of the Foreign Languages ​​Department of Shrek Academy, and more than ten teachers from the Foreign Languages ​​Department.

Xu Zihuang looked up and saw that the vast majority of these teachers were the homeroom teachers for the ten freshman classes. Mu Jin and Wang Yan were among them.

But Zhou Yi was nowhere to be seen.

It seems he's probably packing his bags and getting out of here.

Du Weilun, holding a folder, scanned the crowd and smiled before saying, "As you all know, the freshman assessment elimination rounds have concluded, and the top three have been determined. Now, I will formally announce their results and the rewards they will receive. The third-place team in the freshman assessment is the Xie Huan Yue team from Class 2, consisting of Xie Huan Yue, Luo Tianlong, and Luo Tianba. Step forward."

Led by Xie Huanyue, the three of them walked out together. Xie Huanyue, whose face was full of fat, forced a smile.

Despite only securing third place, he wasn't dissatisfied. Ning Tian's team won against them based on genuine strength, and Yu Tianhuang's team was even more impressive.

After the elimination rounds, fewer than three hundred people officially became first-year students in the outer academy of Shrek Academy.

"Second place: Ning Tian's team from Class 9 of the freshmen. The team members are Ning Tian, ​​Wu Feng, and Ya Lu."

After a slight pause, Du Weilun raised his voice slightly and said, "The final champions of the freshman assessment are Yu Tianhuang's team from Class 9 of the freshmen. The team members are Yu Tianhuang, Tuoba Yu, and Nanmen Yun'er."

Immediately, the entire stadium erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

Yu Tianhuang's name had long been known throughout the entire outer academy. He was talented, strong, handsome, and had an otherworldly air. It was almost impossible to find any flaws in him.

Aside from being quite ruthless when dealing with Wang Dong's and Dai Huabin's teams, he is usually polite and gentle. He's naturally well-liked among the new students, especially the female trainees.

Of course, some harbored resentment, but they weren't fools. Their target wasn't Xu Zihuang, but Tuoba Yu and Nanmen Yun'er.

Some of the more uncouth male trainees even whispered to their companions that Yu Tianhuang could win even with two dogs, which garnered considerable agreement from others.

But these voices were quickly drowned out by the cheers and applause of the many trainees.

The three of them walked quickly forward, with Xu Zihuang at the front, and Tuoba Yu and Nanmen Yun'er half a step behind.

Du Weiren smiled and looked at the three of them, gesturing for them to stand in the center.

Ning Tian and Ya Lu smiled and gave Xu Zihuang a slight nod. Wu Feng, on the other hand, kept his head down, seemingly lost in thought.

On the other side, Xie Huanyue smiled politely at Xu Zihuang. However, his mountain-like fat body did not give him a kind of honest impression; instead, he looked somewhat shifty and sneaky.

Du Weilen continued, "Alright, now I will announce the rewards for the top three teams in the freshman assessment. The top three teams will all receive a unified reward from the academy, and each member can request a spirit ring from the academy when they need one, and the academy will assist them in obtaining a spirit ring that they can afford and that is most suitable for them."

Upon hearing this, the students present couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. This reward was equivalent to a promise from the academy that the next soul ring for Xu Zihuang and the other nine would be one with attributes that were highly compatible and whose age was close to their physical limits.

Xu Zihuang was also somewhat tempted; he had already planned for his fourth spirit ring. The academy's promise seemed to have some flaws.

The kind of soul beast he wanted to hunt was too rare; there were probably only a few in the Star Dou Great Forest, the largest gathering place for soul beasts on the entire continent. If Shrek Academy could provide manpower and resources, that would be the best outcome.

"Director Du, can you specify the type of soul beast?"

Du Weilun was taken aback, a strange look appearing in his eyes as he looked at Xu Zihuang. But remembering Yan Shaozhe's instructions before leaving at noon, he responded decisively.

"can."

Tuoba Yu opened his mouth, intending to say something as well.

Director Du, may I specify a thousand-year-old Titan Ape?

But after thinking about it, I decided against it.

He was afraid that Du Weilen would just slap him across the face.

Any academy will give preferential treatment to outstanding students.

Next, Duveln announced additional rewards for the winning team.
