Douluo Continent: I am the Ice Archer, my ice power is invincible.

Chapter 41 Tang San: Who's more awesome than me?

Feng Xiaotian stood aside, looking at Huo Wu with some heartache. He felt sorry for Huo Wu's defeat, but was also shocked by the strength of the Tianshui team.

This year's Tianshui team is incredibly strong, even capable of competing with the Spirit Hall Academy team, making them a strong contender for the Soul Master Tournament championship.

The members of the Blazing Fire team walked off the field.

Huo Wushuang said to Feng Xiaotian:

"I never expected them to be so strong, especially their captain, Shui Bing'er. Brother Tian, ​​it's up to your Shenfeng Academy now."

Feng Xiaotian shook his head.

"I saw your fight just now. We all underestimated their strength. I alone cannot defeat them. Therefore, we concede."

"What? You're admitting defeat?!"

Huo Wushuang found it incredible.

Huo Wu was a little angry.

"Giving up before the competition even starts? How can you be so pathetic?"

Feng Xiaotian quickly explained:

"Fire Dancer, this is a joint decision made by the teacher and the team. We won't spar, but we can still exchange ideas."

"Hmph! Although they have an advantage in soul power and can suppress our fire element, they cannot restrain your wind element. It's hard to understand why your Divine Wind Academy made such a decision."

Huo Wushuang stepped in to smooth things over.

"Alright, Huo Wu, that's their academy's own business. I think Brother Tian doesn't want to reveal his trump card."

Feng Xiaotian nodded.

"That's only one reason. More importantly, the overall strength of the Tianshui Academy team is truly unfathomable. Even if we give it our all, we might not be able to defeat them. Besides, their strongest player hasn't even played yet."

Huo Wu frowned deeply.

"You mean that substitute?!"

"That's right. My intuition tells me that he is the strongest person in the Tianshui team."

Everyone turned to look at Xiao Han, who was celebrating with his teammates.

According to the original plan, the Tianshui team would have another match with the Shenfeng team two hours later.

Unexpectedly, the Kamikaze team forfeited and conceded defeat.

Xiao Han joked:

"The senior sisters performed well, completely defeating the Blazing Fire team, and even the Divine Wind team was so frightened that they voluntarily admitted defeat."

Shui Bing'er smiled and said:

"The Kamikaze team probably wants to hide their strength and doesn't want to go all out."

"Possibly. Besides, the Blazing Fire team didn't go all out either."

"Xiao Han, how did you figure that out?"

"I guess so. But even if they give it their all, they can't beat you, because you're the best."

Xiao Han knew that Huo Wu possessed a special talent—the Fusion Ring.

She can fuse all the energy of her spirit rings together and concentrate it into a single spirit skill.

This talent is quite remarkable, allowing her strength to temporarily surge to a higher level.

However, this skill has a major drawback: it consumes all of one's soul power, and it takes several days to recover.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, Mai Shiranui will not use this skill.

As the group was chatting, Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wushuang, Huo Wu and their group walked over.

Feng Xiaotian smiled and said:

Congratulations on your two consecutive victories.

Shui Bing'er responded:

"You've been too modest; you must not want us to see your true strength."

"No! It is indeed difficult for us to defeat you. You are really strong and have a chance to win the next Soul Master Competition and bring honor to our Elemental Academy."

After Feng Xiaotian finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Han.

"If I'm not mistaken, this young man's soul power should be above level 40, right?"

Xiao Han smiled and replied:

"Yeah, just passed level 40."

Feng Xiaotian shook his head and sighed:

"I'm just like you, born with full soul power. You're so young, yet you've already broken through to level 40, while I haven't broken through yet."

"That's because you've been wasting your energy on the wrong things. I heard you're researching and creating your own soul skills, and you've made some progress."

Feng Xiaotian frowned.

"So you already knew. That's right, I was indeed researching my own soul skill and considering it as a trump card. I had no intention of showing it off today, so I voluntarily gave up this competition."

Xiao Han smiled.

"Your ability to develop your own soul skill is enough to prove your exceptional talent. But if you deliberately lower your level for some reason, it would be an unwise thing to do. You should know what I mean."

Xiao Han said this intentionally for Huo Wu to hear.

Feng Xiaotian scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Young Brother Xiao Han, this is our first meeting, how do you know so much?"

"I'm well-informed. Brother, don't waste your talent."

"Seeing how strong your Tianshui team is, how dare we be complacent? We will definitely train even harder when we get back so that we will have a chance to compete with you."

"Then let's have a good match at the Soul Master Tournament two years from now."

"Okay, it's a deal."

Feng Xiaotian and Xiao Han hit it off immediately and had a very pleasant conversation.

After leaving Tianshui Academy, Huo Wu called Feng Xiaotian aside.

"Feng Xiaotian, I don't need your pity! That kid is right. With your talent, if you had focused on cultivation, you would have already reached the Soul Master level. Why are you in this situation?"

"Fire Dance, it's not just because of you."

"Stop talking, I know everything. If you really want my approval, raise your soul power to level 45 or higher before the Soul Master Competition. Can you do that?"

"sure!"

Feng Xiaotian was somewhat excited.

After years of groveling before, the goddess has finally given in.

Xiao Han's words awakened Feng Xiaotian. The performance of the Tianshui team put pressure on him, and Huo Wu's behavior was also a spur to him.

After returning home, he will study diligently and strive to achieve even greater success.

~~~~~~

Several months have passed in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

The Shrek Seven Devils achieved a 28-game winning streak at the Soto Grand Arena.

However, even with Tang San's best efforts, he could not break Xiao Han's record of one hundred consecutive victories.

In recent days, several wealthy individuals have placed heavy bets on the same team, causing significant losses to the Soto Arena.

Manager Ao had no choice but to seek out Tang San, who had shown amazing performance in the Soul Arena.

The two reached an agreement that Tang San would lead the team to challenge the Royal Fighting Team.

Tang San seized the opportunity to ask:

"Manager Ao, I've heard that there's a teenager whose second spirit ring reached the thousand-year level, and he achieved one hundred victories in your Great Spirit Arena in just one month. Do you know anything about that person?"

Manager Ao shook his head and smiled:

"I don't know much about them. However, I have doubts about their true identities. All eight of them are of ice and water attributes, and if I'm not mistaken, apart from the boy, the other seven are women disguised as men."

"Are they all girls?"

"That's right. One of the girls is particularly special; she possesses the top-tier beast spirit, the Ice Phoenix. They all have fair skin, so they're clearly not from a coastal city. I guess they're all from the inland water city—Tianshui City."
