Soul Land: Power Of Space - 21. Sausage Monopoly

When Flender arrived, what he witnessed was a beautiful yet slightly embarrassing scene.

Lu Yuan dissipated the space blade in his hand, and the enhancement subsided, leaving him with approximately forty percent of his total spirit power.

The incense on the ground had not yet been burned. It was evident how quickly this battle progressed from beginning to end.

The main reason for this is Lu Yuan’s unique martial spirit and spirit skills. He fully utilizes the “strangeness” and “peculiarity” of space.

Furthermore, Lu Yuan’s tactics are extremely unconventional, the kind that allows him to escape thousands of miles without striking a single blow.

Zhao Wuji’s only mistake was choosing to fight head-on. If Zhao Wuji hadn’t stubbornly resisted, but rather focused on evading, restraining, and engaging in hit-and-run tactics, relying on his speed as a Spirit Sage to circle around, the outcome wouldn’t have been like this.

Although Lu Yuan appeared to fight effortlessly, the rate of spirit power consumption in his body was actually much higher than Zhao Wuji’s.

Just a single spatial cut or shape change would consume one-tenth of his spirit power in the enhanced state. It’s true that ordinary people wouldn’t be able to handle it!

Zhao Wuji smiled bitterly and said, “Little monster, with your strength, there’s no need for me to promise you anything.”

“You shouldn’t say that,” Lu Yuan squinted his eyes. “Smart people don’t utter dark words. I like your position as the chief examiner.”

“Examiner?” Zhao Wuji scratched his head in bewilderment. What’s so special about this guy? Why didn’t he notice it before? Even if he were to take the position, he would still be restrained and restricted, making it all meaningless. The only more interesting aspect would be to fight against these little monsters who passed the third test. But even he doesn’t enjoy this kind of amusement, let alone the big monster in front of him who just defeated him.

In Zhao Wuji’s view, fighting against the strong holds great significance. Even if you lose, you can learn from it and strive to become stronger but fighting against the weak is merely a way to kill time. Therefore, Zhao Wuji didn’t hesitate at all, he just nodded and prepared to respond.

“Wait!” The forest was pushed aside, and a middle-aged man stepped out.

“Master?” Ma Hongjun exclaimed involuntarily.

Lu Yuan looked at the person who arrived.

The man had black short hair with three patches of white hair above his forehead and temples. A strand of gray and white hair extended from the top of his forehead, draping next to his left eye.

With such distinctive appearance, it was easy to recognize him, not to mention Ma Hongjun’s earlier slip of the tongue.

Flender!

Lu Yuan silently repeated the visitor’s name.

Flender pushed up his square glasses to conceal the glimmer in his eyes. If he guessed correctly, the little monster in front of him was clearly aiming for greatness.

It is in the nature of a spirit master to grow stronger or follow the strong. Every spirit master is like that, otherwise, they wouldn’t choose the path of becoming spirit masters. And nothing can better demonstrate the meaning of “strong” than an actual battle!

If he were to succeed, then the captain of the Shrek team would already be under the control of the boy in front of him.

Then what should Dai Mubai do?. As soon as this thought crossed Flender’s mind, he found himself in a dilemma.

To be honest, he didn’t want to miss out on this talented student in front of him but Dai Mubai was also an important figure. The two are like cherished swords, if one were to fall, it would cause great distress to Flender.

However, Dai Mubai’s state of mind hadn’t been very stable recently. After considering this point, Flender let out a sigh.

“Old Zhao has agreed to give you the position of examiner, and I have no objections. However, I have some better plans for cooperation. Would you like to hear them?”

Flender signaled to Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji nodded, reached out to grab the confused Ma Hongjun, and headed straight for the training ground.

In no time, Ma Hongjun found himself standing on a very familiar training ground.

“Boss Zhao,” Ma Hongjun seemed to sense the impending tragedy, but he didn’t give up and asked, “Can you go easy on me?”

“What do you think?” Seeing the excited grin on Zhao Wuji’s face, Ma Hongjun couldn’t help but let out a howl. Although the boss he had just recognized was indeed very powerful, the person beating him now wasn’t his boss!

“Stop!. Don’t hit my face!. f you hit me in the face again, I will resist!”

The scorching flames that had just risen were immediately extinguished by Zhao Wuji’s slap.

“Resist! The more you resist, the more excited I become!” Zhao Wuji clenched his fist tightly, producing a satisfying cracking sound from his bones. He then mercilessly swung it down at Ma Hongjun.

“Buy sausages! Buy sausages! Don’t miss the chance! Come and take a look!” The loud shouts accompanied by the mouthwatering aroma of meat successfully attracted many customers for a while.

The person behind the food cart had a full beard and appeared quite old. However, he had a pair of big, lively eyes, which were fixed on the prettier girls from the candidate team.

“Give me one”

Oscar  looked at the girl in front of him, momentarily captivated by her beauty. Her appearance and temperament were flawless, and seeing her for the first time made Oscar’s heart skip a beat.

After waiting for a long time without a response, Ning Rongrong looked up and discovered that the man in front of her was staring at her intently. Her face darkened, and she angrily slapped the table before turning to leave.

Oscar was taken aback by Ning Rongrong’s sudden anger. He hesitated for a moment but decided not to call her back. Although this girl was his type, her temper seemed too volatile for him to handle.

‘Can’t control it. Can’t control it. Can’t control it’ Oscar sighed and shook his head.

“Oscar, I’ll pay for all your sausages,” a soft voice said.

Oscar was startled and looked at the person who had approached him. Unfamiliar, don’t know, but that didn’t stop him from taking the big order. After all, they were all part of the same world, and maybe they would get to know each other through conversation. Perhaps this person was a future student!

“Okay!” Oscar replied, flipping the grilling sausages and boasting, “I’m not bragging, but most of the candidates who have eaten my grilled sausages have passed the examination.”

“I’ve never met someone as brave as you. It’s clear that you will succeed in the assessment!”

“Stop. Stop exaggerating!”

Oscar’s expression froze, but Lu Yuan responded indifferently, “I’m not exaggerating. These are my sincere words. I am the examiner for the fourth level.”

Lu Yuan squinted and tapped on the cart’s tabletop. “Don’t deceive me. Just make the sausage with your first spirit skill. I just finished fighting Teacher Zhao, and I need it urgently.”

Oscar almost choked. Although he hadn’t met this person before, it was clear from his words that he was from Shrek Academy. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know Oscar’s skills so well. However, since they were both from Shrek Academy, things would be much easier to handle.

Oscar grinned mischievously and recited the strange spirit curse.

Ning Rongrong suppressed her anger and walked back along the same path. She realized that most of the people in Shrek Academy were peculiar.

The examiners were strange, the candidates were strange and even the guides were strange. And now, even the owner of the roadside stall was a weirdo.

“You’re still eyeing this me at your age. How shameless! Do you really think i would fall in love with you?” Ning Rongrong muttered under her breath, angrily lowered her head, and continued walking. But she bumped into someone on her way.

“Hiss!” Caught up in her conversation with Tang San, Xiao Wu was caught off guard and collided with Ning Rongrong, causing her to stumble. Fortunately, Tang San reacted quickly and caught Xiao Wu before she fell. However, Ning Rongrong was less fortunate.

As an auxiliary system spirit master, her physical fitness was not as strong as Xiao Wu’s, and her reaction speed was slower and unlike Xiao Wu, she had no one to support her in time, so she ended up sitting on the ground.

Rubbing her forehead, which was throbbing with pain, Ning Rongrong’s eyes filled with tears involuntarily.
