Chapter 197 Communication among Intelligent People
Even if all seven Shrek Seven Devils joined forces, they might not be a match for Su Yu.
However, Zhang Lexuan immediately dismissed this thought. No matter how strong Su Yu was, he couldn't possibly be that powerful. If he really were, the Sea God Pavilion would never have allowed the Star Luo Empire to press the Su family step by step.
However, all of that is in the past. The current situation of Su Yu's family is complicated. All the important members of Su Yu's direct lineage died in that attack. Zhang Lexuan has a mixed opinion about this. Even if the Su family's defenses were lax, they could not have suffered such heavy losses, especially in the capital of the Star Luo Empire.
There are too many suspicious points in this matter. Even Elder Xuan was planning to go to the Star Luo Empire in person to demand an explanation.
However, the Sea God Pavilion eventually suppressed the matter, and after being persuaded by everyone, Elder Xuan had no choice but to give up.
Upon arriving at the training ground, Su Yu pointed at Zhou Sichen and said, "Come on, Zhou Sichen, you go first. I promise I'll go easy on you."
Seeing Su Yu's kind smile, even Dai Huabin instinctively took two steps back. He recalled how he had been beaten up a lot back in the academy, especially when Su Yu showed that harmless smile—that was when he was at his most ruthless…
"No! Didn't we agree to go easy on her? You can't go back on your word! A person should keep their promise!" Zhou Sichen was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she tried to run away in a panic.
Wang Qiu'er was amused by Zhou Sichen's cowardly appearance. "Who told you to try to slack off? If you don't beat me up, who will? If you run away, I'll announce that you'll be the only one to challenge our team in the team battle."
Zhou Sichen looked at Wang Qiu'er with a sorrowful expression and said, "Captain, you can't side with outsiders! Why do you always speak up for outsiders?"
"Su Yu, an inner court student, a level 60 all-around Soul Emperor, please enlighten me!"
"Inner Academy student, Zhou Sichen, level 48, Power Attack type Battle Soul Master, please show mercy!"
Stepping onto the training ground, Zhou Sichen admitted defeat, but compared to the other team members, he was still considered one of the outstanding students.
As he opened the tome in his hand, four spirit rings—two yellow and two purple—slowly rose. After opening the tome, Zhou Sichen retreated rapidly, immediately creating distance between himself and Su Yu. His martial spirit was a tome with summoning attributes, but his summoning style didn't seem to be particularly powerful among the other students.
As the distance increased, Zhou Sichen did not hesitate, and his four spirit rings lit up one after another.
First Soul Skill: Earth Bear.
Second Soul Skill: Flame Demon Tiger.
Third Soul Skill: Thorn Forest.
Fourth Soul Skill: Netherworld Serpent.
The Earth Bear unleashed a burst of yellow light, raising its paws to strike Su Yu directly. The Flame Tiger also spewed out a huge fireball. Under Zhou Sichen's control, the Thorn Forest rapidly spread, surrounding Su Yu from all sides. The Netherworld Python also moved as soon as the Thorn Forest surrounded Su Yu, ready to attack without hesitation should Su Yu show any weakness.
In this battle, Zhou Sichen clearly did not intend to engage in a war of attrition, because he knew he was no match for Su Yu. The only thing he could do was to unleash all his fighting techniques as much as possible, so that he could lose in a less humiliating way.
Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly as she watched Zhou Sichen's performance, but she knew that Zhou Sichen had already lost the moment he revealed his spirit rings.
Just as the Earth Bear's paw struck, a loud bang echoed from the training ground, followed by the Flame Tiger's fireball. In an instant, Su Yu's figure disappeared into the flames.
As the flames dissipated, the Thorn Forest immediately enveloped Su Yu's location. If Su Yu were to try to break free from the Thorn Forest's restraints at this moment, he would inevitably consume more soul power, thus wasting more time.
Seeing this, Dai Huabin frowned. In his memory, Su Yu would never be so careless. Where was Su Yu?
"Wait, Su Yu doesn't seem to be at Zhou Sichen's attack position!" Cao Jinxuan looked at the empty training ground, as if he had discovered something.
Ning Tian involuntarily clenched his fists and asked nervously, "In my perception, he's still in the training ground, but I can't find him anywhere."
What about Su Yu?
"Your strength is not bad, but your speed is too slow. Next time, you need to pay more attention to the opponent's actions and not unleash your soul skills wildly right from the start. Although your fighting style is indeed very troublesome, you must make sure that you hit the opponent. Otherwise, you will only be doing useless work and wasting your soul power."
A familiar voice rang out, and everyone looked over to see Su Yu standing calmly behind Zhou Sichen, with one hand on his shoulder.
"Did any of you see clearly when he appeared behind Zhou Sichen?" Lan Susu's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. Su Yu had appeared behind Zhou Sichen so quietly.
If Su Yu participates, even if he doesn't use his Martial Soul Fusion Technique to fight their Netherworld White Tiger, his terrifyingly fast, ghost-like speed alone would be enough to overwhelm them.
Dai Huabin, as if it were commonplace, said, "Don't forget, this kid chased after five senior students from the inner academy at the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event. I'm not surprised at all by his speed."
Ning Tian's lips parted slightly, he hesitated for a moment, but ultimately couldn't utter a single word.
Bang!
"Didn't we agree to go easy on me? Help!"
A scream rang out as Zhou Sichen was kicked to the ground, only to be caught by his own third soul skill, Thorn Forest.
The powerful impact instantly shattered the thorny forest, and even the Netherworld Python that tried to catch Zhou Sichen was forced to retreat by the terrifying force.
This scene made everyone gasp in shock.
How come this force is comparable to that of a female Tyrannosaurus Rex?
"Alright, that's barely acceptable. Pay more attention to today's situation in the future. Although the special properties of your martial soul bring you all sorts of possibilities, I still hope that you can try to absorb more powerful soul rings in the future. Sometimes, what you know as the best combination may not be the most suitable for you."
Su Yu flashed and used the mirror shards to teleport behind Zhou Sichen, placing a hand on his back to dissipate the immense force.
When Zhou Sichen stepped back, he looked relieved, as if he had just escaped a disaster. "Damn it, Su Yu isn't human, he's practically a transformed soul beast. What human has such monstrous strength? From now on, I'd rather be beaten to death by Wang Qiu'er than be Su Yu's opponent. Let whoever wants to go, go!"
When he stepped down, his school uniform was soaked through, clearly indicating that he had experienced quite a fright.
The white light vanished, and Su Yu stood steadily in the center of the training ground, asking, "Who's next?"
………………
This was not a happy teaching session, and it was also a painful memory for the nine of them to be taught all sorts of lessons, both forward and backward. Fortunately, Su Yumei was heavy-handed and only touched the surface, but the oppressive feeling made the nine of them who went on the stage one after another feel desperate.
In the past, Su Yu would never have had such abundant soul power. However, since Su Yu consumed the Crystal Dragon Blood Ginseng and, with the help of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, consumed the Eight-Cornered Profound Ice Grass and the essence of the Blazing Apricot, he has cultivated a golden body that is impervious to water and fire. Everything seems to have become much easier.
In terms of pure power, he has now completely surpassed Wang Qiu'er. If it weren't for Huo Yuhao possessing the spiritual power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm accumulated over a million years, Su Yu would also crush almost everyone in terms of spiritual power, except for those old monsters and super Douluo with spiritual attribute martial souls...
Nine to zero.
As a member of Shrek Academy, he was actually defeated by a single person who achieved a terrifying record of defeating nine opponents in a one-on-one situation.
"As expected of someone whom Elder Xuan values highly, truly remarkable!"
The senior sister's clear voice echoed in the training ground. Looking at the dignified and graceful senior sister in front of him, Su Yu bowed to her.
"Greetings, Senior Sister." Su Yu smiled and bowed. Regardless of the relationship between Senior Sister and Bei Bei, Senior Sister was definitely someone Su Yu should respect.
Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan walked to the center of the training ground and said, "Actually, today's battle was invited by Wang Qiu'er to bring Su Yu. It wasn't to undermine your confidence, but to help you understand your weaknesses and problems. Although Su Yu is about your age, his abilities are not limited to that. Whether it's soul tools or the understanding of martial souls, Su Yu is ahead of you, so you should learn from him. However, considering that you are all Shrek Academy's regular members, I'll tell you some inside information about Su Yu from the academy."
"Inside information about my academy?" Su Yu was puzzled. He didn't understand why his senior sister would suddenly bring up these things. Was it just because he had come?
No, things are clearly not as simple as I thought.
"Yes, that's right, it's about the internal news of your academy. Before this competition started, the academy had discussed whether to let Su Yu become a member of the Shrek Seven Devils, but do you know why Su Yu didn't become one of the Shrek Seven Devils in the end?" Zhang Lexuan smiled as she looked at the puzzled looks on everyone's faces.
Ning Tian raised his hand and asked, "Senior Sister, you're not suggesting that Su Yu refused the opportunity to become one of the Shrek Seven Devils, are you?"
"That's right. It was right after the previous All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament ended. At that time, Su Yu was temporarily staying in the family to recuperate due to his severe injuries. So, apart from Wang Dong taking care of Su Yu, all the members of the Shrek Seven Devils had returned to the academy and received the Sea God Pavilion's reward. However, before the elders of the Sea God Pavilion even mentioned the title of Shrek Seven Devils, which represents the glory of Shrek Academy, Su Yu sent back a message in advance, asking Elder Xuan to convey to everyone that he had voluntarily given up the title of Shrek Seven Devils."
After Zhang Lexuan finished speaking, she looked at Su Yu, which made Su Yu suddenly feel as if his secrets had been exposed.
"Senior Sister, isn't this something that can't be talked about...?" Su Yu sighed and rubbed his forehead, feeling as if his senior sister was using him as a teaching example, though whether it was positive or negative was anyone's guess.
"I am a member of the Sea God Pavilion, and they are also members of Shrek Academy. I don't think there's any need to hide your story. If I don't tell, these things will remain buried in Shrek Academy's archives for many years. If I don't tell, what will happen to the next generation of Shrek Seven Devils? You could say you are more qualified to be one of the Shrek Seven Devils than they are. But I hope your story can inspire the new generation of students at Shrek Academy and point them in the right direction. At the same time, you must understand that the development of the academy is not static, it was in the past, and it is now."
Looking into Zhang Lexuan's burning eyes, Su Yu nodded slightly and continued, following her lead: "No matter how tomorrow's match goes, or any future match, I hope you can win the championship, because you represent Shrek Academy and are fighting for your own glory! You are fighting for the glory of Shrek Academy!"
The reason why the senior sister chose to tell Su Yu's story was to amplify their expectations for Shrek's glory, thereby better stimulating their potential and confidence.
This is why the senior sister wasn't surprised at all by Su Yu's arrival. However, she also didn't expect Su Yu to continue speaking in accordance with her wishes.
"Shrek will win!" Dai Huabin clenched his fist excitedly and cheered.
"Shrek will win!"
…………
Seeing the excited expressions on everyone's faces, Su Yu silently disappeared into the shadows.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room.
Su Yu sat on the sofa and looked at his senior sister beside him, saying, "Senior sister, I have fulfilled my mission."
"Su Yu, how did you know my plans?" Zhang Lexuan looked at the young man in front of her with a smile, her eyes slightly surprised.
Su Yu glanced at the training ground and continued, "My story is undoubtedly a positive example that fits the current situation. Although Senior Sister's story can also inspire their confidence and belief, as someone of the same age, I am undoubtedly the one who can most easily resonate with their sense of Shrek's glory. I think this is Senior Sister's plan. Although their strength is basically no match for the Shrek Seven Devils, it's impossible to make them lose their confidence and belief in fighting from the very beginning."
"No wonder the proposal for you to become a member of the Sea God Pavilion was unanimously approved by the elders of the Sea God Pavilion. After meeting you today, I understand why. I also know a lot about your story. Now it seems that you are even smarter than the information suggests."
Zhang Lexuan was indeed very surprised. Putting herself in Su Yu's shoes, she realized that even she herself back then might not have been as good as him.
However, she was very fortunate that Su Yu was born in one of the three great empires and was a student at Shrek Academy.
