I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.
Chapter 144: The Preparatory Team for a Bleak Future
Looking at the newly formed team, Xu Xingyu felt that the team might not be very harmonious.
Firstly, Xu Sanshi was dissatisfied with the handling of the cheating incident in last year's Soul Fighting Competition, which led to his relationship with Bei Bei not being as close as before, and they even had frequent conflicts.
Furthermore, because of Huo Yuhao's past performance and his attempt to kill Bingdi, Xu Yanxue had no goodwill towards him.
Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao were in similar situations; the latter even nearly died at the hands of Huo Yuhao after he went berserk.
Admittedly, Huo Yuhao lost his will at that time and apologized afterwards, but it still left a great psychological shadow on Xiao Xiao.
Given Huo Yuhao's lack of cooperation during the freshman assessment, it would be strange if Xiao Xiao had any feelings for him.
Even without Xu Xingyu, anyone secretly watching could see the discord within the team.
This even led Elder Xuan to consider holding another test to reselect the team members.
However, considering that if this team can put aside their prejudices in the future, there will be almost no one who can stop them.
First, they have Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi as their strongest spear and shield, one a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus with the bloodline of a golden dragon, and the other having completely mastered the power of the divine beast Xuanwu.
Furthermore, Wang Dong'er and Xu Yanxue possess extremely strong combat abilities beyond their level. It wouldn't be a problem for them to surpass Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi in five years, given that one has the inheritance of a god and the other possesses the ultimate ice.
Furthermore, with Huo Yuhao's abnormal mental detection ability providing assistance, this team would be absolutely unstoppable.
The only two weaknesses are probably He Caitou and Xiao Xiao. One is a Soul Master who has limited performance in a competition with a restricted scope like the Soul Master Competition, and the other is a Great Soul Master with good talent and twin martial souls.
Both are talented, but not irreplaceable.
Therefore, after four rounds of testing, Master Xuan did not conduct a second selection, mainly because he was afraid of the trouble and most of the reserve team members were children.
Although there are some conflicts, they will find that these conflicts are nothing when they grow up. Once they mature, they will surely prioritize Shrek's glory.
After completing the selection of the reserve team, Elder Xuan officially began to explain the significance of the competition to the reserve team members, as well as what their mission was.
Apart from a few who already knew that this was the selection process for the reserve team, the others were extremely excited to learn that they had been selected for the Soul Master Competition's reserve team.
Indeed, as a reserve team, they were more like supporting characters to the regular members selected from the inner court, that is, the current Shrek Seven Devils.
However, this also implies that they, as the reserve team, are one of the Shrek Seven Devils in the Soul Master Competition five years later.
The original Shrek Seven Devils faced numerous difficulties in the Soul Master Tournament ten thousand years ago, but they still managed to win the championship based on their own strength, despite not being favored by outsiders.
Therefore, Shrek Seven Devils is the most important title in Shrek Academy, and being called one of Shrek Seven Devils is considered the highest honor!
This is also a subtle way of saying that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, everyone present will definitely be able to become a member of the inner court.
Looking at the children who were excited about this, Elder Xuan couldn't help but recall his own youth as a member of the Shrek Seven Devils, when he was just as excited.
After a period of rest, Elder Xuan told them all to go back and get some rest, and then prepare to let them meet the members of the main team tomorrow.
The next day, the seven selected as reserve team members arrived at the arena at the designated time, waiting for the regular team members to arrive.
Little did they know that they had been waiting for the reserve team members, and when Elder Xuan saw that everyone was present, he began to introduce each member one by one.
Huo Yuhao and the others were very curious about what kind of people these senior students who were chosen as the main candidates would be, but to their surprise, they met someone they never expected.
That is Xu Xingyu, who was selected as a regular player.
Everyone present knew that Xu Xingyu was specially recruited into the inner academy after completing a year of study in the outer academy, but to become one of the Shrek Seven Devils right after entering the inner academy?! ...
!
Only Wang Dong'er and Xu Yanxue were not surprised by this, since they had already heard about it from Xu Xingyu.
Xu Sanshi, a disciple of the Spirit Pagoda, was only slightly surprised before finding the result quite normal.
He may not know how strong Xu Xingyu's combat power is now, but a year ago Xu Xingyu already had the strength to fight against the Soul Emperor, so it is not particularly surprising that she can squeeze into the Shrek Seven Devils' team based on her own strength.
Xu Sanshi was somewhat surprised that Jiang Nannan could become a member of the Shrek Seven Devils. Apart from the things his family had done in the past, he didn't know much about Jiang Nannan, the personal secretary of the Pre-Star.
My understanding of Jiang Nannan is that she has good talent, but her combat strength is unknown.
It now seems that Xu Sanshi underestimated Jiang Nannan's potential. No wonder Ma Xiaotao once said that Jiang Nannan was likely to replace him in the future.
As for the remaining few people, upon seeing Xu Xingyu, they immediately assumed that she must have gotten in through connections, otherwise how could she have become a member of the Shrek Seven Devils so quickly?
After all, people tend to unconsciously believe that if they can't do something, others certainly can't either, which leads to people often unconsciously criticizing others.
But when Xu Xingyu started her introduction after the other senior students had finished, they actually took a step back, making sure to give her some space.
Such behavior undoubtedly shows their respect for Xu Xingyu. If even these senior students acknowledge her existence, then is Xu Xingyu really admitted through connections?
They had already come up with the answer in their minds when Xu Xingyu introduced herself.
Xu Xingyu calmly said, "Xu Xingyu, a level 51 Soul King, is the captain of the main team."
The captain of the main team! That means Xu Xingyu became one of the Shrek Seven Devils in less than a year through her own strength, gained the recognition of her teammates, and was chosen as the captain!?!?
Is this some kind of insane talent?! This talent is way stronger than the original Shrek Seven Devils!?!?!?
Looking at the respectful manner of those senior students, it's clear that Xu Xingyu earned their recognition through her own strength and personal charm.
Only in this way would these proud senior students allow a student who is seven or eight years younger than them to be the team leader.
This made these reserve team members, who considered themselves the most talented in Shrek Academy, begin to seriously doubt whether they had any talent for cultivation.
How come others can advance from high-level Soul Venerable to low-level Soul King in just one year of cultivation, while I'm lucky if I can break through three or four levels in a year?
