After Ning Rongrong finished explaining her martial soul, almost everyone's attention was drawn to her.
Ning Rongrong stuck out her cute little tongue and said,
"Don't look at me, I'm no different from ordinary people. I ran away from home. Let's get through the current test first. My martial soul is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, with two spirit rings. It can enhance everyone's speed and strength attributes respectively, increasing them by about 30%. It can last for an incense stick's time without any problem."
Her modest words increased Tang San and the others' goodwill. They thought, "She really is a well-mannered young lady."
However, Yin Hao knew Ning Rongrong well—she was willful and capricious, a real little devil.
Tang San had intended to arrange the tactics himself but, glancing at Yin Hao, he stepped back:
"Brother Hao, you arrange the tactics..."
Yin Hao didn't hesitate:
"Alright, Rongrong will stand behind me to support us, Xiaowu will handle the main attack, Zhuqing will flank and seize opportunities, I'll control the field, and Xiaosan will cover Zhuqing's sneak attacks. Any objections?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Yin Hao then whispered to Xiaowu:
"When we attack, just hold off Teacher Zhao, attack a couple of times, then retreat immediately. And don't use your charm soul skill; the difference in mental strength is too great, or you'll suffer a backlash."
Xiaowu nodded.
The formation was set: Yin Hao in the middle, Ning Rongrong behind him, Tang San on the right, Zhu Zhuqing front right, Xiaowu front left.
As the incense stick burned out, Zhao Wuji's voice rang out.
"Have you discussed it?"
Yin Hao responded, "Teacher, please enlighten us..."
Zhao Wuji nodded, lit another incense stick, and placed it in the ground.
Ning Rongrong summoned her martial soul first. A beautiful little tower appeared in her hand, and two yellow soul rings glowed.
"Seven Treasures Turn Out with Glazed Glass. First: Strength. Second: Speed."
The beams of light entered the four in front; Yin Hao and the others instantly felt their strength increase.
Zhao Wuji was surprised.
"Good heavens, one of this year's examinees is from the Seven Treasures Glazed Glass family. Not bad."
He slammed his hand into the ground; a shockwave spread outward.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing dodged; Tang San lifted himself with Blue Silver Grass vines.
Yin Hao didn't dodge; it was a casual attack.
He raised ice spikes to form a wall, protecting himself and Ning Rongrong.
Zhao Wuji glanced at Yin Hao and nodded slightly.
Taking advantage of the hesitation, Xiao Wu kicked Zhao Wuji's shoulder.
With a loud "thud," Zhao Wuji emerged unscathed.
Tang San's Blue Silver Grass entangled Zhao Wuji; Zhu Zhuqing attacked from behind, striking with her claws.
Zhao Wuji, a Soul Saint, unleashed a surge of soul force, shattering Tang San's vines.
Tang San's face paled slightly from martial soul backlash.
Zhu Zhuqing retreated; Zhao Wuji reached for Xiao Wu, but a golden-patterned blue silver grass vine pulled her back.
"Didn't I say retreat quickly if your first attack failed?" Yin Hao scolded.
Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue: "I thought Tang San and Zhu Qing could hold them off a bit..."
After the first probing attack, Zhao Wuji twisted his neck and flexed his wrists, cracking audibly.
"Next… I attack first, Xiao San and Zhu Qing cover me..."
Yin Hao shouted; the blue silver domain expanded, covering the area.
Tang San raised two Blue Silver Grass vines toward Zhao Wuji.
Zhu Zhuqing quickly circled around to strike Zhao Wuji's vital points, though unable to injure him, constantly annoying him.
Zhao Wuji channeled soul power, easily tearing the vines. Zhu Zhuqing temporarily retreated.
With the vines gone, Zhao Wuji felt his vision expand—but then ice spikes shot toward him.
He calmly raised his hands; a soul power barrier appeared.
Even with Yin Hao's thousand-year-old first soul ring, Zhao Wuji, a Soul Master, blocked the barrage effortlessly.
Before he could feel smug, he noticed something behind his waist. Small feet.
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Wu propelled herself forward from behind, using Yin Hao's Blue Silver Grass support beneath Zhao Wuji's feet.
Zhao Wuji was launched into the air, crashing headfirst into the ground.
Xiao Wu retreated beside Yin Hao, looking smug.
