739 – Soul Beast Sparring ?

This made him think of Tiger King who had snuck into his room.
He hadn’t seen her since he left the Elven Planet.

　　    She is now the successor of Beast Dod and the current king of the soul beasts in her planet.

　　    I miss her a bit.
After the completion of the Sky Fighter missions, I’ll see if there is an opportunity to apply to go to the Elven Planet and meet her.

　　    Just when Lan Xuanyu’s mind was stirring, the airship slowly landed at the interstellar center of Sen Luo City.

　　    After landing, everyone realized that many of the buildings that looked wooden on the surface were still covered with metal structures on the inside.
That is to say, Sen Luo City was not as primitive as it seemed on the surface.
After all, the Federation’s technology is now very advanced.

　　    The hatch opened, Xiao Qi led Lan Xuanyu’s team of seven to step off the airship.
Outside, there were already two middle-aged people waiting there, obviously to pick them up.

　　    Xiao Qi saw the two and hurriedly moved forward to greet them, “Good morning, my two seniors.”

　　    The middle-aged man on the left smiled and reached out to shake his hand, “I don’t dare, I don’t dare, we both graduated from the Outer Court.
How are you, Teacher Xiao? I am Xie Fuquan, the director of the Federal Central Academy.
This is our deputy director Qi Ruixuan.”

　　    Lan Xuanyu vaguely knew that those who taught at Shrek Academy’s main campus were at least Inner Court disciples.
And only if they successfully graduated from the Inner Court.
And some of the students who graduated from the Outer Court came to this side as teachers.
The two in front of them should be so.

　　    But even as Outer Court graduates, they were not weak ! Being able to graduate from Shrek Academy’s Outer Court meant that they were at least a Two-Word Battle Armor Master.
After so many years, as directors, these two in front of him must be Titled Douluo.
At the very least, they were also Three-Word Battle Armor Masters, and even Four-Word Battle Armor Masters were not unlikely.

　　    “Regardless of Outer Court or Inner Court, we all come from Shrek.
Don’t be polite, my two seniors, thank you for coming to pick us up specially.” Xiao Qi said very modestly.

　　    Qi Ruixuan said with a smile, “Then we won’t be polite anymore, junior brother is really good, we have heard about it.
This time, it’s the fourth years instead of the sixth years that will be participating in the competition, and you won this spot after defeating the sixth years.
Junior brother is so young and has taught such excellent disciples, I really admire you.”

　　    Xiao Qi smiled and said, “I can’t take credit for this, it’s mainly because the kids are outstanding.”

　　    Xie Fuquan, the director of teaching, said, “Let’s go and rest at the academy first.” As he said that, he made a gesture of invitation.

　　    The crowd went out of the interstellar center, and there were already cars waiting outside.

　　    Lan Xuanyu and his partners had been observing the surroundings after they stepped out of the cabin.

　　    The aura of vegetation was very rich in the air here, even a bit denser than Shrek City.
Life aura was also very strong, but in terms of level was clearly inferior to their home planet, and was about the same as the Elven Planet.
Nevertheless, it still felt comfortable for the group of newcomers.

　　    Xiao Qi and the two directors sat in front.

　　    Xie Fuquan said: “Teacher Xiao, this time the sparring will be arranged like this.
You have just arrived, so you should rest for two days first, and then we’ll start the sparring session in the morning.
It’s the same old rules, three one-on-one matches, one two-on-two and one group match.”

　　    Xiao Qi nodded and said, “We have no problem, everything according to the academy’s arrangement.”

　　    Xie Fuquan smiled and said, “Our students are looking forward to this year’s cut sparring competition.”

　　    Xiao Qi’s heart suddenly moved, he always felt that Xie Fuquan was implying something in his words!

　　    Qi Rui Xuan said: “The soul beasts will also come to observe the ceremony according to the usual practice, as to who is coming it is not clear yet.
Also, should the Soul Beast Sparring session take place? According to custom I have to ask you.”

　　    Soul Beast Sparring session? What was that?

　　    Lan Xuanyu could not help but feel curious.
He looked ahead.

　　    Just at that moment, Xiao Qi turned back and looked at him as well.

　　    “Xuanyu, it’s like this, every year when we come to this side for a sparring session, there will be an optional Soul Beast Sparring session.
It’s a sparring session between you and the soul beasts.
The opponents will all be 10,000 year old level soul beasts.
This is mainly training for you guys.”

　　    Lan Xuan Yu asked curiously, “So how does this Soul Beast Sparring session work?”

　　    Xiao Qi said: “One-on-one.
It is an elimination system.
That is to say, after you defeat a soul beast, you will directly take on the next one.
Until you lose.
If the seven of you combined can break the record number of wins, there will be a soul bone reward.
One more win after breaking the record can get you an additional soul bone.”

　　    Xie Fuquan added next to him, “The current record of wins is thirty-three.
Each person can’t rest during the middle of the match, taking one fight after another until they lose and are replaced.
This is mainly to sharpen yourselves against true soul beasts.
Now that this win record has been held for over one hundred and seventy years, it is a bit difficult to break it.
If you choose to participate, it will take place the day after the sparring session with our students.
You’ll stay an extra day.”

　　    Lan Xuanyu looked at his partners.

　　    Qian Lei’s voice was the first to ring out, “Let’s do it, let’s break the record.
It’s a soul bone !” His eyes were already glowing.

　　    Lan Mengqin did not have the good grace to give him a white look, “Is the record that easy to break? For one hundred and seventy years it hasn’t been broken.”

　　    Qian Lei laughed, “Our seniors in the past could do it, we have a chance too.
Let’s try it.”

　　    Qi Ruixuan laughed, “It’s true that it’s not easy to break the record, but it’s still meaningful to hone one’s combat skills.
After all, the fighting style of soul beasts is different from us humans.
However, I have to remind you that the soul beasts will not allow you to break the record, after all, soul bones are also very precious to soul beasts.
Therefore, if you win more games, it is likely that you will be up against a powerful soul beast.
Eighty or ninety thousand years are likely to come out.”

　　    Lan Xuanyu said, “Thank you for the reminder, let’s give it a try.
This is a rare opportunity to hone ourselves.”

　　    Xiao Qi nodded his head and said, “Okay, let’s give it a try then.
Directors, then I’ll trouble you to arrange it.”

　　    If there was no previous sparring with the Joyful and Sorrowful Twin Swords, perhaps Lan Xuanyu would not have delayed more time here.
But he found that the significance of actual battle was not only to increase his skills, but more importantly, there was another point, which was to increase his experience of facing different opponents.
The world of soul masters was so strange, there were all kinds of Martial Souls.
This time there was even the opportunity to face a soul beast, there was no harm in trying.
As for breaking the record, he felt like they had a chance.

　　    What’s more, Lan Xuanyu felt that both himself and his partners, after their previous qualitative breakthrough after several years of accumulation, everyone’s improvement was obvious, but was not yet too familiar with their power.

　　    The process of completing the Sky Fighter missions was more about team battles, and they had no time to sharpen their abilities.
This kind of pressure against real soul beasts would obviously be very helpful to better master their own strength.
They had already come, it was also a good opportunity to understand a little bit more soul beasts.

　　    Along with the soul car entering the city, through the windows they could also see more of the style of this sole city of the planet.

　　    The streets were very wide, but the amount of soul cars was not much.
Most of the buildings on both sides of the street were relatively short, and also most of them were wooden or stone structures, with only a few metal structures.

　　    Xie Fuquan smiled and said: “It’s the first time for you students to come to our Sen Luo City, right? Our city is well known for the diversity of its population, we have both humans and soul beasts living here, each in their own area, and any kind of fighting is prohibited here.
Otherwise, you will be severely punished.
After exploration, Sen Luo City is actually very rich in natural resources, including rare metal resources, but the federal government has resolved not to give any form of development to Sen Luo Planet, so as to maintain its natural appearance.
This is not just for the soul beasts, but also for us.”
