Zhao Wuji settled back into his lounge chair and closed his eyes to rest. On the ground, the lit incense sticks began to burn.
Dai Mubai sighed and looked at the five individuals who were still unaware of the escalating seriousness of the situation. He walked towards them. "My apologies, I also didn't expect Teacher Zhao would personally take action. Originally, your fourth assessment should have been to last for the duration of one incense stick under my supervision."
Xiao Wu exclaimed, "Seeing how troubled you look, is this Teacher Zhao also a Soul Emperor like the teacher in the first round?"
Dai Mubai shook his head. "No."
Xiao Wu's worries immediately subsided. "Then there's nothing to fear. After all, the four of us are all almost level thirty Soul Masters, not to mention Sui Sui is a Soul Elder! With our combined strength, fighting in a war of attrition, lasting for one incense stick should not be difficult."
Not to mention the hidden trump card that was Sui Sui!
Soul Elder?
Zhao Wuji, whose hearing was exceptionally acute, opened his eyes from his feigned slumber, his gaze appraising the girls.
The monsters from this batch were truly deserving of the title. He had thought it would be good if they all surpassed level 25, but to have one hiding their strength and already exceeding level 30?
Zhao Wuji’s lips curved slightly upwards.
Regardless of which of them had reached the Soul Elder realm, it wouldn't change the outcome.
An additional Soul Elder would merely provide him with a bit more amusement.
With this thought, Zhao Wuji closed his eyes again and temporarily sealed off his hearing to avoid overhearing Tang San's deployment plans, which would be unfair to them.
"Hey, don't be so quick to make a conclusion, I haven't finished speaking yet," Dai Mubai said helplessly to Xiao Wu. "Teacher Zhao isn't a Soul Emperor, but he is a Battle Soul Saint of level 76, with a beast-type martial soul!"
"Level 76?!"
Everyone was startled, including Ning Rongrong, who was once again shocked that such a powerful Soul Master existed in this small, dilapidated academy.
"Teacher Zhao's strength is second only to the Dean. I will briefly explain Teacher Zhao's specialized abilities. You should discuss your strategy quickly." Dai Mubai glanced at the incense stick, which had already burned through more than a third of its length, and said concisely, "Teacher Zhao's martial soul is the Mighty Vajra Bear, a powerful beast-type martial soul. Its entire body is without flaws, and its defensive capabilities are particularly terrifying. Even Soul Masters of the same level would only inflict superficial wounds on him."
"Without flaws..." Tang San mused over the four words, his gaze unfathomable.
At this moment, it would be great if the first soul skill was still the original version of a single-target armor-piercing attack.
Tang Sui's mind moved, and a translucent screen, visible only to her, appeared, displaying her current personal status.
