Chapter 235: Element Academy: Nan Feihuang's Future Core Team

"My god, he actually did it. In a singles match, even a one-on-seven is unheard of, yet he actually completed an unprecedented one-on-fourteen!" Yu Tianheng was shocked, even horrified.

The child who had once fought him in a fair spirit fight and held a slight edge over him had now actually grown to this extent.

If it were him on the stage, he feared he wouldn't even be able to last one or two moves.

Moreover, what Nan Feihuang defeated were no pushovers; this was the top-three stage of the Soul Master Elite Tournament, in other words, a clash between the three strongest academies.

This included the powerhouse of previous years, Star Luo Royal Academy, and the Spirit Hall Academy, which had completed a consecutive championship streak over several tournaments.

The gold content of this one-on-fourteen was truly too high.

Nan Feihuang smiled at Chrysanthemum Douluo, "Since your academy and Star Luo Royal Academy have both conceded, then I, Nan Feihuang, thank you all for letting me win. Mother, let's go."

As if he had only done a trivial little thing, Nan Feihuang stepped off the Fighting Spirit Platform.

Watching Nan Feihuang's confident and sunny smile, the infatuated Shui Yue'er tugged at the skirt of her sister, Shui Bing'er, "I've been charmed, Sister. You and Mother help me propose, will you? Please?"

So her infatuation wasn't purely because she was a face-con, she really wanted to find a reliable husband to marry herself off to.

After all, he was a future king.

Even if she couldn't become his highest-ranking official Queen, was the position of Concubine really that bad?

Secondly, seeing Nan Feihuang's excellence, her "love-brain" had flared up again; looking at Nan Feihuang, she thought of Yu Xiaogang.

"It seems my brother Feihuang is truly popular," Xue Qinghe said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

As they were all academies from the Heaven Dou Empire's half of the bracket, he had led the Heaven Dou Royal Academy there, so the spectator seats were naturally not far from Tianshui Academy, and with her keen senses, she had heard Shui Yue'er's words clearly.

Bibi Dong walked forward a few steps and announced, "The top-three group stage ends here. I announce that Gu Lei Royal Academy advances to the finals. This afternoon, Spirit Hall Academy and Star Luo Royal Academy will have a team battle to compete for the other spot in the finals."

Feihuang hadn't even been moved by Xue Ke's company for so long; those infatuated girls couldn't enter his heart either.

This left her feeling a bit stifled inside.

Why should she trouble herself?

She also knew that after today's commotion, Nan Feihuang's name would likely resound throughout the entire continent, and with his noble status, even if he already had a marriage contract, there would still be many girls flocking to him.

One reason was that the Spirit Hall Academy's tactics had been completely dismantled by Nan Feihuang; he had completed the feat of defeating two teams alone without losing much stamina or soul power, further cementing his reputation as the Flying General.

Her expression was not very good, and her voice sounded extremely cold, showing her mood was not great.

Shui Bing'er gently stroked her forehead, "I say, Yue'er, there is no such thing as a daughter going to propose to the man's side; our mother doesn't have such thick skin."

In truth, that was exactly what Shui Yue'er thought; anyway, her father had long since abandoned her, and although her stepmother and sister were both quite good to her, she always had a feeling of living under someone else's roof.

"What does it matter? It's not like we're strangers. Mother and Aunt Lan Xue are old best friends; wouldn't it be good for our two families to become even closer? Are you still my sister or not? Helping a younger sister find a desirable husband is a sister's bounden duty," Shui Yue'er pouted, dissatisfied.

In her heart, husband and wife were one; living in her husband's home would not count as living under someone else's roof.

"This won't do... how about I find a secret room and lock Feihuang up?" A thought flashed through Qian Renxue's mind, then she immediately cast it out. What was she thinking?

Now her mind was filled with three words: Why?

She and Yu Xiaogang were about to be torn apart by Qian Xunji, while Qian Daoliu was very supportive of Qian Renxue and Nan Feihuang.

Could it be just because Nan Feihuang had good aptitude, and because Gu Lei Kingdom was not on the Spirit Hall's list of enemies?

It was too unfair!

She would definitely destroy Nan Feihuang, just as Qian Xunji had destroyed her back then.

"Um, Your Holiness the Pope, for the afternoon match against Spirit Hall Academy, we of Star Luo Royal Academy know we are no match and are willing to concede," Dai Weisi said, looking at Bibi Dong with some fear.

Although he had fulfilled his promise to the Spirit Hall this time, he hadn't really helped with anything, and he was terrified that this female Pope would settle scores later.

Of course, he couldn't cause any more trouble for the Spirit Hall Academy.

It was better to obediently concede automatically, allowing the Spirit Hall Academy enough rest time to face Gu Lei Academy in the best condition tomorrow.

"Granted!" Bibi Dong said directly, "Since that is the case, the other academies may disperse; you may all leave Wuhun City."

Not everyone could watch the finals; even the Five Elements Academies did not have the qualifications to watch.

Only big figures like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Master and the Heaven Dou Empire Crown Prince could remain as witnesses.

After Bibi Dong announced the end of the session, the various academies walked out of the Spirit Hall.

Shui Bing'er and the others came before Nan Feihuang and said, "Junior Brother, we are leaving. Good luck in the finals. I believe that this year, you will definitely be able to rewrite history and win the championship of this tournament."

"Then why is Senior Sister in such a hurry to leave? Why not wait another day? I don't think the Spirit Hall would be so stingy as to not allow you to stay in the hotel for one more day," Nan Feihuang smiled, "How about we return together after I win the championship tomorrow?"

"This..." Shui Bing'er hesitated; she wanted to go back as soon as possible.

This tournament had made her realize her own shortcomings, and she wanted to go back and practice hard.

"Yes, yes! Since Junior Brother wants to leave with us, of course we don't mind waiting one more day," Shui Yue'er interrupted Shui Bing'er's hesitation, winking frantically at her, the meaning conveyed in her eyes self-evident: "Good sister, for your younger sister's lifelong happiness, wait one more day."

"Fine, as a senior sister, celebrating for a junior brother who returns victorious is only right and proper." Shui Bing'er was incredibly indulgent toward Shui Yue'er; anyway, it was only one day, and she wasn't so impatient that she couldn't wait that long.

After Shui Bing'er led the Tianshui Academy group back to the hotel to rest, Xun Yu walked to Nan Feihuang's side and said, "My Lord, Tianshui Academy has extraordinary strength. It is a good choice to use them as a link to win over other Element Academies. With the title of the Soul Master Elite Tournament champion academy, it should not be difficult to recruit them into your service in the future as your future core team."

Xun Yu saw through Nan Feihuang's thoughts; it seemed he had taken his previous suggestion to heart. To dominate the world in the future, building one's own core team was a necessity.

Tianshui Academy and Gu Lei Kingdom had been on good terms for generations, so using them as a link was just right.

Nan Feihuang smiled, "Haha, Wenruo, as expected, nothing can be hidden from you."

Inside the hotel, Huo Wu looked at Shui Bing'er in surprise, "Bing'er, you're staying an extra day?"

"Yes, Junior Brother said he would definitely win the championship, and since we are like siblings, he asked me to stay and celebrate for him. How could I refuse such a small request?" Shui Bing'er didn't dare say her sister's infatuation had flared up, so she pushed the excuse onto the relationship between the two families.

"I see. This Flying General is truly confident. Since you're staying, Bing'er, then this young lady will stay too, as a witness to the birth of a new champion."

Don't look at Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er as water and fire; in reality, they were not at odds at all. Instead, they were good best friends and the two most outstanding women among the Element Academies, collectively known as the "Water and Fire Twin Beauties!"

"Sister Huo Wu, you're staying? Then I'll stay with you," the wind-chasing sycophant Feng Xiaotian suddenly popped up behind her.

There was a rumor among the Element Academies that wherever Huo Wu appeared, a wind-chasing sycophant would be within seven steps. This urban legend was indeed not false.

"Feng Xiaotian, can you stop being so ghostly all the time?" Huo Wu roared, her forehead covered in black lines.

In fact, this was the link Nan Feihuang and Xun Yu had spoken of.

Among the Five Elements Academies, Thunder Academy was backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, and Elephant Armor Academy was backed by the Elephant Armored Sect.

Only the three academies of Heavenly Water, Blazing Fire, and Kamikaze could truly be called branches of the same tree.

If Shui Bing'er is kept, there is a chance to keep her best friend Huo Wu, and if Huo Wu is kept, then Feng Xiaotian is kept one hundred percent.

The strength of these three academies is quite formidable, and they are worth taking under one's wing.
