Chapter 17 An acquaintance
After the freshman assessment, Wang Nan's life became regular. All he had to do every day was to get up, eat, go to class, eat, exercise, eat, meditate, and sleep. In the blink of an eye, several months passed.
Thanks to the Shrek Canteen that he longed for, he had greatly improved in a few months, and his soul power had successfully reached level 30. This threshold that was difficult for most soul masters to cross was passed quietly.
"Winter vacation starts tomorrow." On the podium, Sun He announced the news of the holiday, which caused a burst of cheers from the whole class.
"Be quiet for a moment." Sun He knocked on the table, "This one-month holiday is not for you to completely relax. There will be an upgrade assessment at the beginning of the next semester. According to the assessment content of previous years, our students in the attack and control departments must To deal with a century-old spirit beast alone, only by defeating it or completely controlling it can it be considered a success..."
"Dong dong dong——"
A knock on the door interrupted Sun He's words.
"Excuse me, Teacher Sun, I'm looking for classmate Wang Nan." It was Du Weilun standing at the door of the classroom.
"Wang Nan, come out for a moment." Sun He looked back at Wang Nan.
When he saw Du Weilun, Wang Nan had already guessed what was going on. His soul power had already exceeded level 30 last month, but he had never had time to obtain a soul ring. Tomorrow was the winter vacation, so Du Weilun probably came here for this matter.
"Your soul power level has reached level 30, right?" Sure enough, Du Weilun led Wang Nan a few steps and then asked.
"Yes, Director Du."
"Remember the soul ring that the academy promised you. Tomorrow, a powerful teacher will enter the Star Dou Forest to obtain soul rings for his disciples. If you have time, I can take you with him."
A teacher who could be rated as a powerful one by Du Weilun was at least a titled Douluo.
Normally, when the academy helps students obtain soul rings, they will first register the students in need, and then one or several teachers will lead a team to form a team dedicated to hunting soul beasts. But in this way, it will be difficult to ensure the safety of everyone in the event of an emergency.
Comparatively speaking, it is much safer to obtain soul rings under the protection of a titled Douluo, and since only Wang Nan and the teacher's disciple are in need, they can also have more time to select soul rings. .
Therefore, Wang Nan agreed after thinking briefly.
"Okay, then go to the gate of Shrek Academy tomorrow morning. Remember not to be late."
…
Early the next morning, Wang Nan packed his luggage and told Wang Yan about getting the soul ring, and then came to the gate of the college.
It was during the holidays, and there were many students coming and going at the school gate. Most of them were walking out and going home during the holidays.
Wang Nan looked around and soon noticed an old man not far away. He was wearing white clothes and accompanied by a little girl who was about the same height as Wang Nan. It seems that this is the teacher Du Weilun was talking about.
"Wang Nan, right? Director Du should have told you." As soon as they met, the old man said, "What you need this time is a thousand-year soul ring. When the time comes, you will look for it in the outer area first. If you can't find it, If appropriate, I'll take you into the mixed zone."
The mixed zone of the Star Dou Forest refers to the part of the approximate ring with a radius of 40 kilometers to 80 kilometers. The soul beasts living there are mainly thousand-year and ten-thousand-year soul beasts. There are also some century-old soul beasts that can rely on the strength of the group to survive. Survive there. Compared with the outer area, the number of soul beasts in the mixed area is much higher.
This can be regarded as the benefit of being protected by a powerful teacher. For ordinary soul masters, the extremely dangerous mixed zone can be entered at a glance. After making travel arrangements, the three of them walked towards the Star Dou Forest.
Along the way, the old man walked at the front without saying a word, but the little girl kept looking at Wang Nan.
"My name is Wang Nan, what's your name?" Being bored on the road, Wang Nan simply started chatting.
"My name is Ma Xiaotao." The girl looked up at her teacher and then replied.
"Uh..." Wang Nan didn't expect that this was an "acquaintance". The old man in front of him should be Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the martial arts department.
"Are you a first-year student? Do you want to obtain the third soul ring so early? What is your martial soul? Hey, do you want us to have a fight sometime?" As soon as the conversation started, Ma Xiaotao asked one after another Several problems occurred.
She has a lively personality. After being adopted by Yan Shaozhe, she has been living on Poseidon Island with almost no peers around her to communicate with. At this time, Wang Nan was finally here, and she couldn't stop once she opened her mouth.
But it was a good thing, walking and talking along the way, it was finally not so boring.
The three of them are all soul masters, and their foot speed is not slow. In addition, the Star Dou Forest is located southeast of Shrek Academy. The two are not far apart, so they were already in the outer area at night.
Generally speaking, the forest at night will be more dangerous. Most soul masters will exit at this time and choose to enter after dawn the next day. But Youyan Shaozhe doesn't have to worry about the soul beast attack now. The three of them not only camped in the forest, but also built a bonfire and sat around it.
It's a pity that Wang Nan doesn't have excellent grilling skills, so he can only eat some food packed from the canteen.
"What kind of soul skill do you want?" Ma Xiaotao looked at Wang Nan across the bonfire while eating.
"Offensive, preferably a range attack."
Wang Nan's first two soul skills were both auxiliary, and the Python Thrust and Tail Sweep he learned from the soul beast could only target a single enemy, so range-based soul skills naturally became his best choice.
In fact, with Wang Nan's "talent", adding auxiliary soul skills like the first two soul rings, and then learning additional skills from the soul beast is also an option, but Wang Nan is not sure that he can learn it from the soul beast. Which skill. The probability of finding a satisfactory one among so many skills is even lower than the probability of playing card drawing games in the previous life.
"They are range-based. Most of the soul skills that bear and elephant-type soul beasts can provide are range-based and have good power." Ma Xiaotao carefully planned for Wang Nan, "But these soul beasts are powerful and peripheral The area may not be easy to find. ”
"It depends on luck. Maybe early tomorrow morning, a soul beast suitable for me will come to my door. What about you, have you thought about it?"
"Well, I actually have a goal for a long time." Ma Xiaotao said, taking out a small red bag and taking out a few thumb-sized black balls.
"What's this?"
"Fire chestnut. My target is the fire skylark. This kind of fire chestnut is their favorite food. Attract them. If it is old enough, use it as a soul ring. If it is not old enough, take it back and keep it in the academy."
Ma Xiaotao's martial spirit is the same as Ma Hongjun in the original Shrek's Seven Monsters. It is the Evil Fire Phoenix. There are countless people in the academy who study it. For thousands of years, they have studied which spirit beasts are suitable for obtaining each spirit ring. She had to make it clear, so she had been prepared for it.
"Okay, let's go and rest after eating." Yan Shaozhe, who had been silent until now, finally said, "I have to get the soul ring tomorrow, so conserve your strength."
