25: Sister, can you still hold on? Sister: I can’t.

Chapter 25 Sister, can you still hold on? Sister: I can't take it anymore~

Even the Golden Generation of Spirit Hall, Xie Yue, Yan, and Hu Liena, were all five or more years older than Tang San.

There were also Blazing Academy's Huo Wu and Fire Wu Shuang, and Heaven Dou's Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan. In fact, any powerful genius student you could think of from the Soul Master Competition was five or more years older than Tang San.

Only Water Binger was merely one year older than Tang San, and during the Soul Master Competition, she was 15 years old with 43rd-rank Soul Power!

Coupled with the top-tier ice attribute Spirit, Ice Phoenix, Water Binger's potential was actually immense.

“So, you can't join Tianshui Academy!” Shui Binger said with a relaxed tone, mainly so as not to discourage Ye Wen and the two others.

Because no one believed that the children they casually encountered in the Star Dou Great Forest could be as talented as Water Binger.

That was simply impossible!

Water Binger was a talent Tianshui Academy couldn't produce even in a hundred years.

But Ye Wen's next words astonished Shui Binger, Water Binger, and the other two.

“If reaching Water Binger's level means we can join Tianshui Academy, we think we should have no problem,” Ye Wen said calmly, uttering words that filled them with immense surprise.

No problem?

Do you know what you're saying?

Among the younger generation, finding a genius like Water Binger with either ice or water as their attribute, there aren't even enough to count on one hand across the entire continent.

This boy in front of them actually said they had no problem?

“Hehe.” Shui Binger treated it as a joke and was about to speak when Ye Wen spoke first: “Xiao Bai, Evil Tiger, show Sister Xiuzhen.”

“Alright.”

The scene that followed would directly shock Water Binger and the two others, making them unable to forget what they saw today for the rest of their lives.

Behind Xiao Bai, a gigantic Devil Spirit Great White Shark first appeared.

The aura of the Devil Spirit Great White Shark completely suppressed Shui Binger's Ice Scorpion Spirit, which meant that Xiao Bai's Spirit quality was even higher than the high-quality Ice Scorpion Spirit!

Its aura was on par with Water Binger's top-tier Spirit, Ice Phoenix!

“Heav… Heavens!!”

“This girl's Spirit, it… it's actually! A top-tier Sea Soul Beast Spirit, Devil Spirit Great White Shark!!”

Shui Binger, Water Binger, and the other two all opened their mouths wide, staring blankly, frozen in shock, dumbfounded.

Because Tianshui Academy only accepted students with water or ice attributes, they would usually set up recruitment stations in coastal areas or near the Extreme North Land.

Because they were close to the sea, there were more water-attribute Spirit Masters, and being near the extremely cold temperatures of the Extreme North Land, there were also more ice-attribute Spirit Masters.

Therefore, Tianshui Academy could be said to be the academy on the continent most familiar with the coastal areas and the Sea Soul Beasts in the ocean.

They had naturally heard of the legends of Sea Soul Beasts like the Devil Spirit Great White Shark, and even the Devil Tiger Whale, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale.

“My innate Soul Power is rank 10, and currently 11th-rank Soul Power,” Xiao Bai finished speaking.

“Genius! This girl is a genius among geniuses, she must belong to our Tianshui Academy!! She must!” Shui Binger was already overjoyed internally, immensely surprised.

But the bigger surprise was yet to come.

It was Evil Tiger's turn to release his Spirit, which was also a top-tier Sea Soul Beast Spirit, the Devil Tiger Whale, whose aura even slightly surpassed Xiao Bai's and Water Binger's, meaning it was even more powerful than Xiao Bai's and Water Binger's Spirits!

“Another top-tier Sea Soul Beast Spirit!! Devil Tiger Whale!!!”

“Heavens! Oh my God!!!”

“I can't take it anymore~! I really can't take it anymore~!!”

“Uhm, ah~!”

Shui Binger felt like she was going to faint from excitement, her face flushed crimson with emotion, and her rapid breathing made her chest heave violently.

“I also have innate full Soul Power, currently 11th-rank Soul Power.”

“Sister Xiuzhen, can you still hold on?” Ye Wen asked with a worried expression.

Shui Binger clutched her chest, slightly tightened her legs, and panted delicately, “I'm fine! I'm fine!”

“Good, then it's my turn.”

Ye Wen smiled faintly and also released his Deep Sea Demon Whale King Spirit, a Spirit far, far more terrifying than Evil Tiger's Tiger Whale, Devil Spirit Great White Shark, or Ice Phoenix appeared.

“I also have innate 10th-rank Soul Power, currently 14th-rank Soul Power.”

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King completely suppressed all the Spirits present; after its appearance, it was as if the other Spirits all bowed their heads slightly!

Undeniably, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was indeed the top among the top.

“How is that possible?! It's actually the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!!!!”

“Am I dreaming?”

“How can it be, how can it be, that three Spirits known as overlords of the sea appear at once!”

“What kind of luck do I have?!!”

“Wait! This child's first spirit ring is incredible! A thousand-year level! It's actually a thousand-year spirit ring!!”

“I can't take it anymore~! I really can't take it anymore!!”

“I really can't stand it anymore~!”

“Uhm, ah, ah~~~”

Shui Binger completely fainted from excitement.

“So… so amazing…”

And Water Binger and Xue Yan were also completely dumbfounded, stunned, unable to believe it, immensely shocked, and couldn't utter a single word.

“Teacher Xiuzhen!!”

“Sister Xiuzhen!!”

Several people simultaneously helped the excited Shui Binger, who had fainted to the ground, onto the sofa.

Ye Wen was a little speechless and said, “Uh, is Sister Xiuzhen's psychological endurance so poor?”

Water Binger's gaze towards Ye Wen and the two others had completely changed; she was also very excited internally, but she calmly explained, “It's mainly because your talents and Spirits are too astonishing.”

Xue Yan said, “Yes! I was almost scared to tears!”

Water Binger continued, “Moreover, for Teacher Xiuzhen, your appearance holds extraordinary significance.”

“How so?” Ye Wen was a bit puzzled.

“Teacher Xiuzhen, from the age of six when she joined Tianshui Academy, until she graduated and became a teacher at Tianshui Academy, her entire life has been spent at Tianshui Academy. Her feelings run too deep; Tianshui is like her home.”

“Her dream is also to see Tianshui Academy become even more outstanding, even surpassing the other four elemental academies, and she also hopes to lead Tianshui Academy to successfully enter the top four in the Soul Master Competition at least once!”

“But our Tianshui Academy has been stuck in the top eight for decades, always just one step away. If geniuses like you can join Tianshui Academy, entering the top four in the future should be no problem, and her dream could be considered fulfilled.”

“That's why Teacher Xiuzhen is so excited,” Water Binger finished.

“I see.” Ye Wen nodded, understanding.

Tianshui Academy was actually already very strong, but unfortunately, there would always be stronger academies, such as Spirit Hall, which had been champions for several consecutive sessions.

And the two strong teams, Star Luo Royal Academy and Tiandou Royal Academy, basically these three teams always ranked in the top three.

The top four meant there was only one spot left, contended by dozens, even hundreds of academies.
