Chapter 58 That Move!
Inside the enclosed training room, the soul-guided lights cast long shadows of the four people.
Kong Xuan leaned against the wall, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and glanced at Kong Ling, Xu Wei, and Xu Tianyi.
The atmosphere seemed somewhat oppressive.
Xu Wei paced back and forth in the training room, his brow furrowed, clearly gripped by some kind of anxiety.
Xu Tianyi sat in the corner, as quiet as ever, but the way he kept glancing at others revealed his unease.
Kong Ling leaned against the window, gazing at the night outside, her eyes flickering slightly, lost in thought.
"What happened?"
Kong Xuan finally spoke, his voice low but clear: "The competition is tomorrow, why do you all look so listless?"
Xu Wei paused, turned to look at Kong Xuan: "Brother Xuan, the enemy should already know about the three of our soul skills, but we only know about Lü Hanwen's soul skills. We know nothing about Shui Ling and An Le's martial souls and soul skills!"
As he spoke, Xu Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Given the current situation, we..."
He didn't continue, but his meaning was clear: he wasn't confident of winning.
Kong Ling, unusually serious with his older brother, asked, "Brother, aren't you going to take action tomorrow in this situation?"
Kong Ling keenly grasped the deeper meaning from Kong Xuan's words.
She believed that based on her understanding of her brother, her intuition shouldn't be wrong.
Kong Xuan smiled, but did not answer the question.
His gaze swept across the three faces before he spoke, "I can offer some useful information about tomorrow's opponents."
The three men's eyes immediately focused on Kong Xuan's face. Although his words were unexpected, none of them doubted the truthfulness of his statement.
"I don't know what Anle's martial soul is, but she is a one-ring soul master with a soul power of about level fifteen."
"As for Shui Ling, she is a control-type Soul Master, and her Martial Soul is able to manipulate an invisible thread."
"Through these threads, she was able to control her teammates to perform some actions that they couldn't normally do."
"And her first soul skill should be able to continuously devour the opponent's soul power through these threads."
The information provided by Kong Xuan was naturally derived from his observations over the past two days.
With the enhanced vision of the Chongming Bird, and through Kong Xuan's development, it has demonstrated many abilities, not just simple vision enhancement.
For example, he can directly see how much soul power a soul master has. Based on his experience, he can now use this to determine a soul master's soul power level. That's how he determined Anle's soul power level.
In the previous match, Kong Xuan saw that after Shui Ling's silk threads wrapped around her opponent, the opponent's soul power could be transmitted to her through these silk threads, thus determining the effect of Shui Ling's first soul skill.
Although Kong Xuan provided a limited amount of information, it was enough for them to gain a clearer understanding of the Water Spirit team's strength.
"If she can absorb the opponent's soul power and increase her own, wouldn't Shui Ling become stronger the more she fights?!"
Xu Wei exclaimed in surprise, clearly shocked by the effect of Shui Ling's first soul skill.
In other words, they don't have much knowledge yet. Otherwise, based solely on the "devouring" effect of the water crystal, it would be easy for them to associate it with evil spirit masters.
"It seems she really is very strong!"
Kong Ling's evaluation was a high compliment to his opponent, Shui Ling.
"The three of you will fight tomorrow!"
Upon hearing Kong Xuan's words, the expressions of the three men changed.
Even if they obtained more information from Kong Xuan, they still weren't certain of victory.
"elder brother..."
Kong Ling spoke urgently, about to say something, but was interrupted by Kong Xuan raising his hand.
"I'll allow you to use that move in tomorrow's battle!"
Kong Ling was taken aback at first, but her eyes lit up quickly, clearly understanding what her brother meant by "that move".
"Brother, didn't you tell me before not to use that move lightly?"
"Now is the time to use it."
Kong Xuan didn't offer much explanation, but after Kong Ling confirmed the matter, all the anxiety and worry on her face disappeared, replaced by an air of self-assurance.
It seems that after using "that move," she can guarantee victory no matter what her opponent's hidden strength is.
Xu Wei and Xu Tianyi exchanged a glance, both looking puzzled, clearly unaware of the "encrypted language" the siblings were talking about.
Xu Wei couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother Xuan, Sister Ling, don't beat around the bush, what exactly is that move?"
Kong Ling glanced at Xu Wei and snorted mysteriously, "You'll find out tomorrow!"
...
Xu Wei questioned Kong Xuan all night, but Kong Xuan did not reveal any information.
When Kong Xuan woke up the next day, he found that Xu Wei had dark circles under his eyes, probably because he hadn't slept well the night before because he was thinking about this problem.
When they arrived at the Great Arena, a deafening roar filled the air, and they noticed that there were significantly more spectators than before.
Through the past two days of competition, this Soul Master Class Competition, which initially didn't attract much attention, has now clearly aroused more interest.
Xu Wei swallowed hard and said in a low voice, "There are just too many people today."
Xu Tianyi glanced at him and said indifferently, "What, scared?"
"Scared?" Xu Wei glared at him, puffed out his chest, and said, "What are you talking about? I just feel... in this situation, we'd be embarrassed to leave without winning."
As he spoke, his gaze drifted toward Kong Ling.
Clearly, without Kong Xuan's participation, their ability to defeat their opponents depends on Kong Ling's "one move".
Meeting Xu Wei's gaze, Kong Ling remained calm, her eyes gleaming with confidence: "Don't worry, we won't lose!"
"Next, please welcome the Kong Ling team and the Shui Ling team to the stage!"
Lin Jiayi's voice resounded throughout the entire Battle Arena. The two teams waiting in the preparation room immediately stood up and walked along the passage into the Battle Arena.
Kong Ling walked at the front, gazing at the blinding light at the end of the passage, and whispered, "Proceed according to plan, don't panic!"
Kong Xuan, as a member of the audience, is still sitting in the first row today.
"Those things you said before, you weren't just trying to comfort me, were you?"
Hearing Ren Jun's seemingly random remark, Kong Xuan turned his head and paused in surprise.
Ren Jun then added, "I thought you would be playing today, but it turns out it's still the same three of them. Are you sure they can beat the other team?"
Upon hearing this, Kong Xuan understood what Ren Jun meant.
This refers to Kong Xuan's previous promise about being "number one".
He turned his gaze back to the arena and said calmly, "Don't worry, teacher, the final victory will definitely belong to our class. I won't let you down."
After saying that, he smiled mysteriously and said, "And the next match should also give the teacher some surprises."
Ren Jun didn't know where Kong Xuan's confidence came from, but he already believed it to be mostly true.
"I'd like to see what surprises they have in store for me!"
