MM Racing Chapter 102, Grade 2
Chapter 102, Grade 2
When the time came, Biji and Ziji successfully led Huo Yutong through Shrek City's city defense checkpoint.
The three of them managed to return to the college before the registration deadline and successfully complete their registration.
In the dormitory, Xiao Xiao, who had arrived earlier, had already cleaned the room spotlessly.
After a long separation, the two girls excitedly chatted about their holiday experiences, their laughter filling the air with the relaxed atmosphere of the start of a new semester.
Meanwhile, inside the Spirit Pagoda, Wan Shu met with Bi Ji and Zi Ji, who had rushed back, and began to discuss the progress of various matters concerning the Spirit Pagoda during the holiday.
In the classroom of Class 1, Grade 2 at Shrek Academy.
Zhou Yi and Wang Yan stood on the podium, their eyes sweeping over the energetic students below, and they couldn't help but marvel at the outstanding talent of this year's students.
They've only been in their second year, and there are already three Soul Masters.
Zhou Yi's clear, cold voice broke the classroom's noise: "The upgrade assessment is related to the fate of every student in the Foreign Languages Department."
Wang Yan then pushed up his glasses, his tone gentle yet undeniable: "If you cannot pass, you will have no choice but to leave the school with regret."
"The assessment will be held in the Beast Fighting Area," Zhou Yi continued. "The content will involve you choosing your own soul beasts and engaging in one-on-one battles."
A suppressed gasp immediately rose from the audience.
She looked around at everyone and added seriously, "The scores will be determined by senior teachers based on a comprehensive assessment of practical performance."
It's not enough to simply defeat them to pass. If the chosen spirit beast is too weak, even if you win, you'll hardly gain recognition. If you stubbornly challenge spirit beasts that are far stronger than yourself, you may be in mortal danger.
The scoring standards for control and offensive types differ. Victory in battle is not the sole criterion; fully showcasing your unique combat style and strengths is the key to achieving a high score!
Wang Yan picked up the conversation and encouraged, "The assessment is scheduled for three days from now. Everyone needs to adjust their condition in the next few days and meet the challenge in their best condition."
The lesson began with Wang Yan explaining the theory and Zhou Yi leading the practical exercises.
After the course ended, the Lan sisters and other members of the Spirit Pagoda, as well as Ning Tian and Wu Feng, gathered around Huo Yutong and enthusiastically shared their holiday experiences.
After his setback in the Soul Guidance Department last semester, Wu Feng realized that he was not cut out for this field and officially completed the procedures to no longer study the Soul Guidance Department. Fan Yu was also very happy, after all, when Wu Feng listened to his lectures, his eyes were full of clear foolishness.
Huo Yutong, along with Xiao Xiao, Ning Tian, and other classmates who continued to study the Soul Guidance Department, went to attend classes in the Soul Guidance Department.
After class, the group went to the Spirit Pagoda as usual, and naturally met Bei Bei and Tang Ya from the Tang Clan across the street. They exchanged pleasantries and talked about their recent situations.
Although Brigitte and Ziji hold positions at Shrek Academy, their focus has long since shifted to the Spirit Pagoda.
Zi Ji needs to carry a large number of storage soul tools every month to transport supplies between Xingdou and Shrek City; Bi Ji is busy refining pills and handling complicated affairs in the tower every day.
Although the college still wanted to retain their salaries, the two women declined actual teaching duties and salaries, retaining only their nominal positions.
Inside the quiet room of the Spirit Transmission Tower.
Biji, Ziji, Wanshu, and Huo Yutong gathered together. Tianmeng first strengthened Wanshu's mental disguise, and then refilled several exhausted "disguise balls" with pure mental energy.
After dealing with these matters, Huo Yutong finally had a moment to go with everyone to the tower's warehouse to transfer all the various resources collected from the far north and the demon forest that were still stored in the undead demiplane.
Subsequently, Biji, Ziji, Wanshu, and Huo Yutong began the intensive work of copying and organizing the list.
These lists of supplies need to be copied multiple times and distributed to various factions that have cooperative relationships with the Spirit Pagoda for review before subsequent transactions can proceed.
Several hours later, they finally compiled a first draft of the list, listing the specialties of the far north and the demon forest by region, and then by major categories such as ores, medicinal herbs, and soul beast materials.
After the first version was completed, other members of the tower were responsible for copying and distributing it.
Zi Ji and Huo Yutong went to deliver the lists to the other members.
After Biji put down her pen, Wan Shu, who had been quietly observing, changed the subject: "Biji, how much do you know about Tang Ya, the Tang Clan girl who often comes to our sect?"
After a moment's thought, Biji replied, "Xiaoya is a kind and diligent child. Her martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, which seems to possess some unique vitality. Why are you suddenly asking about her?"
Wan Shu slowly said, "Her martial soul is definitely not ordinary Blue Silver Grass."
During the holidays, she often came to talk to me under the tree in front of the tower. I once asked her to release her martial spirit to sense it carefully... It contained an extremely pure and ancient primordial aura, almost like the king of plants.
More notably, deep within her martial soul lies a subtle yet extremely powerful 'devouring' attribute, though she herself seems completely unaware of it and unable to control it.
Upon hearing this, Bi Ji frowned slightly: "The Devouring attribute? The Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is known for its vitality and resilience, and those with the Devouring characteristic are extremely rare."
If she herself is unaware of it and unable to control it...
"That's the problem," Wan Shu's voice was tinged with seriousness, "that devouring power is not naturally compatible with the martial soul, but more like an external 'addition' or 'symbiosis,' or even... a 'seal.'"
It is currently silent because the child is kind-hearted and his martial spirit is still gentle.
Once revealed, or if she experiences a major shock and her emotions fluctuate violently, this power may be unexpectedly awakened or even take over, potentially leading to a loss of control.
At that time, what will likely be devoured first is her own consciousness and her original martial spirit essence.
Bi Ji's expression turned serious: "So this is not a simple mutation of the martial soul, but rather a lurking hidden danger."
Blue Silver Grass…devouring…could it be related to those ancient plant-type spirit beasts with predatory characteristics? Or is it some kind of spirit mutation unknown to us?
"Whether there is a connection or not is still hard to determine," Wan Shu pondered, "but what is certain is that the essence of this power is not low."
Her cultivation level is still shallow, and this hidden danger is like a silent volcano.
Although we can see the signs, rashly intervening and trying to forcefully guide or stimulate it may backfire and prematurely ignite it.
Perhaps, it would be more prudent to wait until her soul power is higher and her will is more resilient and stable before gently guiding her.
Brigitte nodded: "It is indeed necessary to discuss this carefully. It is enough for you and me to know about this matter. Do not tell outsiders for the time being, and do not mention it in front of Tang Ya, so as not to cause her unnecessary panic or curiosity, which would only make things worse."
If she comes again in the future, we will keep a close eye on her. Perhaps, as her cultivation improves and her experience grows, she will gradually be able to sense and tame this power; that would be the best outcome.
The two reached a consensus to keep the matter to themselves for the time being.
