Seeing Zhao Wuji say this, Dai Mubai quickly spoke up, "Teacher Zhao, isn't that a bit inappropriate? The Dean arranged for me to conduct the new student assessment."
Zhao Wuji glared at Dai Mubai, "What's inappropriate about it? The Dean isn't here, I'm the highest authority in the academy. I'll decide how the assessment is conducted."
Immediately after, Zhao Wuji looked at the five of them, Yang Xiong included, "Five little monsters, my name is Zhao Wuji. My assessment is very simple. As long as the five of you can last for the time it takes an incense stick to burn under my hands, even if only one person lasts until the end, you will be considered to have passed the assessment."
"However, I'll state this beforehand. Don't think about using tricks in front of me. At least with your firepower, using tricks in front of me is meaningless. Also, individually, it's impossible for any of you to withstand me. So, listen carefully to Little Bai's suggestion and analyze the tactics to deal with me."
Seeing Zhao Wuji continue to sit there with his eyes closed, Dai Mubai quickly gathered the five of them together, his expression looking very serious.
After they gathered, Dai Mubai's face was a little stern, "I can't help you this time. Originally, the final stage was supposed to be assessed by me. I didn't expect Teacher Zhao to decide to assess you himself. You're in trouble now."
Xiao Wu smiled, "This Teacher Zhao isn't a Soul Emperor like the teacher at the entrance, is he?"
Dai Mubai shook his head, "Not a Soul Emperor, but a Soul Saint. Teacher Zhao is a Level 76 Attack System Battle Soul Saint. His Martial Soul is the Vajra Bear, a very powerful Beast Martial Soul. He has no weaknesses all over his body, and his attack power is also very formidable. He is also the Vice Dean of our academy."
"Teacher Zhao's nickname is Immovable King. Let alone the five of you, even with me added, we might not be able to last for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. You're in trouble now."
Everyone's eyes widened upon hearing this, and even Yang Xiong's expression became a little serious. If their strength were a bit weaker, they might still be able to last for the time it takes an incense stick to burn by relying on various techniques, but a Soul Saint is completely different, especially a Soul Saint who can control gravity.
Ning Rongrong was surprised, "He's actually the Immovable King Zhao Wuji? More than ten years ago, Zhao Wuji had a conflict with the Spirit Hall. To deal with him, the Spirit Hall sent sixteen bishops to surround him, but he managed to escape. You should know that the bishops of the Spirit Hall are all Soul Emperors above Level 60, and at that time, Zhao Wuji was only a Soul Emperor."
Everyone's expressions became even more serious upon hearing this. Clearly, a Soul Saint is a master even in the entire Soul Master world. At least in Soto City, they should be among the top few masters.
Yang Xiong said, "Let's first talk about our individual strengths and see how to deal with Zhao Wuji and how to last through the time it takes an incense stick to burn."
Everyone gathered around and reported their Martial Souls and abilities.
Tang San was the first to speak, "My name is Tang San, my Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass, I'm a Level 29 Control System Battle Soul Master."
Xiao Wu also quickly spoke, "My name is Xiao Wu, my Martial Soul is Rabbit, I'm a Level 29 Attack System Battle Soul Master."
Next was Ning Rongrong, "My name is Ning Rongrong, my Martial Soul is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, I'm a Level 28 Support System Tool Soul Master."
Zhu Zhuqing also spoke coldly, "Zhu Zhuqing, my Martial Soul is the Nether Cat, I'm a Level 27 Agility Attack System Battle Soul Master."
Finally, Yang Xiong spoke, "Yang Xiong, my Martial Soul is my body, I'm a Level 26 Attack System Battle Soul Master."
After everyone reported their Martial Souls and abilities, everyone looked at Ning Rongrong and Yang Xiong. One of them had the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, and the other had a Body Martial Soul that they had never heard of.
Tang San had clearly heard of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, "Are you from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"
Ning Rongrong's face looked a little playful, "Don't mind my background, Little Xiongzi and I ran away from home."
Dai Mubai looked at the five of them, "Your combination is quite good, two attack types, one agility attack, one control, and one support. You should discuss a delaying tactic properly."
Tang San was the first to speak, "How about this, Ning Rongrong provides support, Xiao Wu and Yang Xiong are responsible for the main attack, Zhu Zhuqing is responsible for flanking support, and I'll try my best to control Teacher Zhao's attacks."
Xiao Wu and the other two nodded.
Yang Xiong spoke at this moment, "Wait a moment, it's well known that on the battlefield, the support is attacked first. Don't we need to arrange someone to protect Rong Rong?"
Tang San and the others' expressions froze upon hearing this. Clearly, they had overlooked the need to protect Ning Rongrong, the support.
In fact, with Zhao Wuji's strength as a Soul Saint, it would be easy to defeat a few Soul Greatmasters, he wouldn't even need to use his Martial Soul.
Looking at the Shrek Seven Devils in the original work, their lineup clearly prioritized attack over defense, and there wasn't even a single defense type Soul Master. If the two sides were in a stalemate, the two support types would easily be targeted.
And Yang Xiong continued to speak, "I can be an attack type Soul Master, or a defense type Soul Master. The three of you can surround and attack Teacher Zhao, and I'll protect Rong Rong and provide support. This way, we can also delay time."
Everyone was surprised, not expecting Yang Xiong to be capable of being both an offense and defense type. This kind of Soul Master was uncommon in the Soul Master world.
Soon, the five lined up. Yang Xiong and Ning Rongrong were at the back, Tang San in the middle, and Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing at the front.
When everyone summoned their Martial Souls and Soul Rings, especially when Ning Rongrong summoned her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the opposing Zhao Wuji was also exceptionally surprised.
"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. It seems I've underestimated you a bit. Start when you're ready."
Zhao Wuji took out a stick of incense, directly used his soul power to light it, and stuck it in the ground.
Ning Rongrong was the first to provide support. Four rays of light emanated from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, quickly merging into Yang Xiong and the other three.
"Seven Treasures are renowned: first, Strength; second, Speed."
Yang Xiong and the other three felt as if their entire bodies had become much more agile, and their strength had also increased significantly. The overall improvement was estimated to exceed thirty percent.
Just as everyone was preparing to attack, Zhao Wuji struck the ground directly with both hands, as if a force erupted from the ground.
Everyone instantly understood what Zhao Wuji wanted to do. Clearly, he wanted to defeat the support first, and the move he just used should have been Gravity Control. This was a rare long-range attack for a pure strength-type Soul Master.
However, Yang Xiong was prepared. He directly pushed Ning Rongrong away and punched the force erupting from the ground. The two forces immediately collided, and Yang Xiong was directly sent flying several meters.
Zhao Wuji was also a little surprised. "Hmm, your strength is quite good, but unfortunately, you're a bit too young."
Immediately after, multiple forces continuously erupted from the ground, clearly all directed towards Ning Rongrong.
Yang Xiong, however, pulled Ning Rongrong and ran quickly, trying his best to dodge Zhao Wuji's attacks. When he couldn't dodge, he swung his fist forcefully to collide with the erupting forces.
Tang San and the other two also moved quickly. Countless Blue Silver Grass flew out from the ground, while Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing directly restrained Zhao Wuji from the front.
