Chapter 119 Lie Feng and Li Baobao
There was a vegetable garden next to the wooden door.
A few cabbages grew crookedly, and holes could even be seen in the roof of the wooden house in the distance, with green vines covering the walls.
Dugu Yan frowned as well: "This environment is so different from that of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy..."
She recalled the martial spirit mimicry training ground and the blue brick walls of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and looking at the dilapidated scene before her, her heart sank.
"Notting Academy is more prosperous than this."
Tang San made a comment, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.
The monster academy that Uncle Flander mentioned doesn't seem to match this dilapidated village at all, and it's not even a third the size of Notting Academy. How can this be called a Soul Master Academy?
Tang Chuan also feigned surprise, raising an eyebrow and looking at Flander: "Uncle, are you sure... this is Shrek Academy?"
Flander's smile froze for a moment, then returned to normal.
"Hi!"
"What do you know!"
"This is called returning to simplicity!"
Flander, shameless as ever, retorted, "Don't let the shabby exterior of my academy fool you; it's a place teeming with hidden talents!"
"And also!"
"This place is secluded and undisturbed, perfect for quiet cultivation!"
"Unlike those prestigious academies, which look impressive but are full of backstabbing and intrigue, how can anyone have the mind to cultivate soul skills?"
"It's different here!"
"Three students and five teachers, all focused on cultivation, that's how you can nurture a genius like Qin Ming!"
As he spoke, Flander reached out and patted Tang San on the shoulder.
"Little San, if you were here, I would have the Soul Emperor of Control teach you every day, and I guarantee your control level will rise sharply."
"And there's also Shao Xin, the food-type Soul Sage."
"His candies can quickly restore soul power. With him around, you just need to unleash your soul skills to train!"
As Meng Yiran listened, the disappointment in her eyes lessened somewhat.
If it's really as Flander said, with a control-type Soul Emperor and a food-type Soul Sage providing dedicated guidance and training, even a less-than-ideal environment is acceptable.
Dugu Yan also hesitated.
Although the environment was dilapidated, the food-type Soul Sage that Flander mentioned was indeed tempting. The Heaven Dou Royal Academy did not have the conditions to have a food-type Soul Sage specifically serve the students.
Tang Chuan watched as Flander smoothed things over, secretly amused, but outwardly he played along, saying, "Oh, I see~"
"really!"
"Compared to the guidance of a food-type Soul Sage, the environment is indeed not important."
"Let's go take a look!"
"I've heard Uncle Flander brag about how talented Oscar and Li Baobao are, and I'm finally going to see them in person!"
Upon hearing this, Flander breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pulled everyone towards the village: "Let's go, let's go!"
"Let me introduce you to him!"
"I guarantee you'll be amazed. Our Shrek students are monsters among monsters!"
The group followed Flander to the gates of Shrek Academy.
Once inside, the dirt road underfoot is full of potholes, and occasionally you can see a few free-range chickens leisurely strolling around in the fields.
Meng Yiran and Dugu Yan were still whispering to each other.
Tang San looked around curiously. It was more like a slightly larger farmhouse than an academy.
A vacant lot not far away had been simply leveled and used as a training ground.
"Boss Francis!"
"You're back?"
When they arrived at the training ground, a muscular, burly man there also saw them and greeted Flander.
"Hmm, are you guys training?"
Flander nodded, watching Li Yusong wielding a dragon-patterned Rod and fighting against a young boy on the field, feeling extremely satisfied.
The boy held an oil lamp in his hand; it had an antique design and a faint blue flame.
The two yellow spirit rings beneath him kept flashing. Each time they flashed, a wisp of the dark blue flame would split off and transform into a tongue of fire that rushed toward the old man opposite him.
The old man was none other than Li Yusong, a level 63 power-type Soul Emperor.
Six spirit rings—one white, one yellow, three purple, and one black—moved rhythmically beneath his feet. He swept out with his dragon-patterned Rod, smashing the flames to pieces, scattering sparks all over the ground.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Li Yusong's dragon-patterned Rod moved swiftly and accurately, constantly shattering Lie Feng's fiery attacks: "Still not enough!"
"Flames need to explode."
"Your speed is too slow and the temperature is too low. It doesn't have the Soul Burning effect of your first Soul Skill at all. Keep increasing your soul power and let me see your limit!"
"First Soul Skill: Flying Together in Harmony!"
Li Baobao stood on tiptoe, her small body ramrod straight.
A pink and white magpie appeared in her hand. As a yellow spirit ring lit up beneath her, it landed on Lie Feng's shoulder, its wings scattering fine silver light as it flapped.
"boom!"
Having received the soul power infusion from Li Baobao's first soul skill, "Flowing Together in Harmony," the ghostly blue flame of the Soul Burning Lamp in Lie Feng's hand leaped half a foot higher, spitting out tongues of fire.
"First Soul Skill, Scorching Soul Flame!"
The first yellow spirit ring beneath Lie Feng shone brightly once more, and the dark blue flames split into three strands, rushing towards Li Yusong, with even the edges of the flames carrying a faint purple glow.
Li Yusong continued to wield the dragon-patterned Rod, shattering the three streaks of fire simultaneously.
However, this time he was not as relaxed as before. After blocking the flames, he was stung by an invisible spiritual shock, which made him frown and momentarily dazed for half a second.
"good!"
"The soul-burning effect worked this time, but the mental impact is still not focused enough!"
Li Yusong steadied himself, flicked his dragon-patterned Rod, and swept the remaining sparks toward the open space beside him: "Again!"
"Let me see the quality of your second soul skill with Li Baobao's support!"
"yes!"
Lie Feng responded, and the second yellow spirit ring beneath him lit up. The wick of the Soul Burning Lamp contracted slightly, and it once again emitted several tongues of ghostly blue flame.
"Good timing!"
Li Yusong praised him, and wielded the dragon-patterned Rod in his hand with such skill that water could not penetrate it, deflecting the incoming flames one by one.
With Li Yusong already prepared, Lie Feng's flames had little effect.
However, Li Yusong's life was not easy either.
Lie Feng's flame effects could burn his own soul power to increase the intensity and temperature of the flames. The amplified sparks landed on Li Yusong's sleeve and immediately ignited into a raging fire.
"Old Shao!"
Just as he shouted, a bucket of water fell from the sky, drenching Li Yusong and extinguishing the flames burning on his body, leaving several black holes in his sleeves.
Li Yusong wiped the water droplets from his face and laughed, scolding Lie Feng, "You little rascal, you're quite the sly one!"
"They actually tried to secretly increase the flame temperature, almost tricking the old man!"
He shook his charred cuffs, water splashing everywhere, wisps of smoke rising from the holes: "Your soul power is all used up, isn't it?"
"You've even used up all the soul power that Bao Bao shared with you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lie Feng's legs went weak and he staggered two steps. His face turned pale, and the eerie blue flame of the Soul Burning Lamp in his hand dimmed.
"Hehe, I really can't hold on any longer!"
Lie Feng grinned, inwardly giving himself a thumbs-up for his tactical maneuver. He knew Teacher Li wouldn't care about the shattered sparks.
Li Baobao swayed along with her, and a pair of pink heart-shaped wings behind her appeared somewhat ethereal.
Her first soul skill, "Wings in Harmony," allows her to share her soul power with her teammates. At this moment, her soul power was drained by Lie Feng, and her face also turned a little pale.
