"Shrek Academy wins!"
"Shrek! Shrek!"
"Long live Shrek Academy!"
The arena echoed with thunderous cheers, all from supporters of Shrek Academy.
Meanwhile, those who had doubted Shrek Academy before now wore incredibly grim expressions.
"Hmph!" Xiao Hongchen snorted disdainfully before turning and leaving.
No one had expected that with only two participants from Shrek Academy, they would defeat the seven-member team from Changning Academy in less than a minute!
Shrek Academy returned in a kingly manner, once again showcasing the depth and strength of the continent's top Soul Master academy!
At the same time, at the top tier of the spectator seats, the gaze of a middle-aged man was fixed firmly on Huo Yuhao, his eyes filled with immense excitement.
This man was the Patriarch of the Tianshui Sect. Over the past few days, he had personally attended every Soul Master competition.
"That extreme cold aura, it must be the inheritor of the Ice God. There can be no mistake!"
Trembling words escaped the lips of the Tianshui Sect Patriarch, and signs of instability appeared in his soul power.
In his quest to find the inheritor of the Ice God, he had spared no effort to leave the Tianshui Sect and come here, awaiting the appearance of the Ice God's inheritor!
"Patriarch, that Ling Luochen is from the Ling Family."
Suddenly, a woman beside the Patriarch of the Tianshui Sect reminded him. She wore a tight-fitting black outfit, her figure tall and alluring.
"The Ling Family?"
The Tianshui Sect Patriarch, who was previously excited, instantly realized, turning his gaze to Ling Luochen in the arena.
"Is it really them? Could it be that they have already found the inheritor of the Ice God before us?"
The Tianshui Sect Patriarch's mood, once filled with excitement, suddenly became uncertain.
Being the first to find the inheritor of the Ice God and befriending them meant gaining the favor of the Ice God's inheritor first.
What was more critical was that if the inheritor of the Ice God was taken away by other forces, it might jeopardize the mission of the Tianshui Sect.
...
"Huo Yuhao, is your second martial soul ice-attributed?"
After descending from the arena, Ling Luochen immediately asked Huo Yuhao.
During the battle just now, she intended for Huo Yuhao to use his Spirit Eyes martial soul for mental control.
However, to her surprise, Huo Yuhao unexpectedly used ice-sealing type soul skills.
"Yes, senior sister."
Huo Yuhao immediately nodded in acknowledgment. His second martial soul wasn't a secret to Ling Luochen and the others.
"I see..."
Ling Luochen nodded thoughtfully, inwardly comparing the difference between Shui Wuya and Huo Yuhao's "ice" attributes.
After a brief comparison, Ling Luochen ultimately believed that while Huo Yuhao's "ice" was decent, the gap between him and Shui Yue was still significant.
As one of the three affiliated forces of the Shui Family, the Ling Family was extremely sensitive to the power of the ice element bestowed by the Ice God.
Looking back, when she first encountered Shui Wuya, Ling Luochen had already sensed the faint yet unmistakable aura of extreme cold emanating from him. However, at that time, she was unaware of Shui Wuya's identity and origins, so she hadn't paid much attention.
"Well done, Luochen, Yuhao. This match has showcased the dominance of our Shrek Academy!"
Watching Huo Yuhao and Ling Luochen approach, Wang Yan clenched his fist with his right hand, finally releasing the tension that had been building up for days.
Over the past few days, with the reserve team members fighting hard, Wang Yan had also borne significant mental pressure, fearing that the honor of Shrek Academy would be destroyed under his watch.
"After today's match, we'll have several days of rest. Other members of the reserve team will have enough time to recover."
"Waiting for the next battle to come, our Shrek Academy will be invincible!"
Wang Dong slapped Huo Yuhao's shoulder, his spirits soaring.
...
While the Soul Master Competition was in full swing, Shui Wuya was meditating in his room.
"[Shui Bing'er's destiny has changed. You have gained a new family force: Ice Turtle Clan (Lost Contact)]"
Suddenly, the voice of the system echoed in Shui Wuya's mind.
A wave of memories, as if dusted off, also merged into Shui Wuya's spiritual world.
Shui Wuya was slightly surprised. After pondering for a moment, he immediately understood that Shui Bing'er had subdued the Ice Turtle Clan thousands of years ago.
In the memories Shui Wuya obtained, the Ice Turtle Clan had been loyal to the Shui Family for thousands of years.
However, with the upheaval over a decade ago, the Ice Turtle Clan lost contact with the Shui Family and remained isolated overseas.
Before long, Shui Wuya activated his abilities, and his consciousness appeared thousands of years ago.
Through Shui Bing'er's perspective, he saw her on an island in the middle of the vast ocean.
The island was filled with subservient members of the Ice Turtle Clan. In front of Shui Bing'er lay the discarded shell of the largest Ice Tortoise.
At the same time, around Shui Bing'er's body floated six soul rings, two yellow, two purple, and two black, with a small blue-transparent ice tortoise perched on Shui Bing'er's shoulder.
Clearly, Shui Bing'er had turned the leader of the Ice Turtle Clan into the soul spirit of her sixth soul ring.
In addition, within a radius of three meters around Shui Bing'er, eight figures stood guard. They were none other than the deans and vice-deans of the four major elemental academies.
"Congratulations, Ancestor, for becoming a true Soul Emperor powerhouse."
Shui Wuya's voice timely resounded, and a smile appeared on Shui Bing'er's face.
"Of course, but this Ice Turtle Clan is truly extraordinary. Just a ten-thousand-year-old Ice Turtle has defense comparable to a seventy-level Soul Saint among human Soul Masters."
Shui Bing'er marveled.
"Now that the Ice Turtle Clan has submitted to me, I plan to use them as guardian soul beasts to protect our family descendants in the future."
As Shui Bing'er spoke, she reached out and took the small blue-transparent ice tortoise from her shoulder, holding it in her palm to observe.
Hearing this, Shui Wuya couldn't help but feel shocked.
In his memory, Shui Bing'er did indeed accomplish this in the future.
After the Ice Turtle Clan submitted to Shui Bing'er, they flourished in the sea, and when Shui Bing'er became the Ice God, the Ice Turtle Clan became the top-ranked soul beast race that suppressed the oceans.
"Ancestor, I wish you success in becoming a god as soon as possible."
With these parting words, Shui Wuya's consciousness exited Shui Bing'er's body.
After hearing Shui Wuya's encouragement, a hint of shyness flashed in Shui Bing'er's pupils.
Until a few moments later, when she regained her composure and stood up from the ground, a cold and killing intent reappeared on her face.
"Let's go. We have more important things to do."
Shui Bing'er spoke slowly, her tone like a command, and the eight Titled Douluo powerhouses around her immediately moved in response.
The Divine Examination was their main objective for this journey.
