Chapter 22 - Chapter 22 - The Unchanging Timeline

  It seemed everything was under Su Yu's control. Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao tried to ask questions several times, but Su Yu glared at them, silencing them each time.

  Having studied theoretical courses, Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao naturally knew the signs of a Soul Fusion Skill.

  "It seems the gap between us and the protagonist is starting to appear. Next time, I'll try a higher age for my Soul Rings!"

  Su Yu make up his mind and continued to use his Mysterious Heaven Technique to recover his depleted Soul Power. Seeing this, Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao has no choice but to obediently recover as well.

  Who can have guessed that the freshmen Class 7 would suffer a crushing defeat at the hands of Su Yu's team? Except for Wang Dong, everyone else was heavily exhausted after this battle, but the other teams are also in dire straits. After all, the later the battle, the stronger everyone became.

  This time, their opponents is the freshmen Class 3, three agility-type Soul Masters, whose strength are even weaker than Huang Chutian's group. Although Su Yu was somewhat exhausted, Huo Yuhao was the most affected. As long as Huo Yuhao's shared mental detection was still active, Wang Dong and Su Yu will not encounter any major battles.

  Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up, a pale golden light emanating from them, an invisible force radiating across the entire arena, clearly revealing the intentions of the three opponents.

  It was unclear why, as previously mentioned, they wouldn't be grouped together as a strong attacker, agile attacker, support, or controller. Su Yu didn't seem to care much about whether it was a bug or a deliberate choice by the three to be grouped together.

  The battle no longer required Huo Yuhao's intervention; he only need to share his mental detection to cover the three opponents as much as possible, thus preventing them from utilizing their speed advantage.

  Sure enough, their goal was to eliminate the weakest first before attacking Wang Dong.

  Unfortunately for them, their every move had already been anticipated by Wang Dong and Su Yu. The moment they moved, Su Yu and Wang Dong intercepted them, a bone-piercing nail flying out and piercing the thigh of an unsuspecting agile attacker from Class 4 of the freshmen. The attacker lost his balance and fell off the field.

  Agility-type Soul Masters, when operating at full speed, are incredibly fast. However, Su Yu has already anticipated their movements. In the instant he struck, a bone-piercing nail, combined with Huo Yuhao's shared mental detection, struck the thigh of one of the students from Class 3 of the Freshmen. The intense pain caused him to lose control and fall out of the arena.

  One gone in one exchange, two against three—how could they possibly win?

  This scene completely stunned the opposing team. Something had flown out and struck his thigh, causing him to fall.

  Was it a Soul Tool?

  "I'm reporting them for cheating, using a Soul Tool!"

  Without hesitation, a student from Class 4 of the Freshmen reported to Wang Yan. The student from Class 4 who had fallen out of the arena stood up, pulled the bone-piercing nail from his wound, and thankfully, it had only penetrated the muscle and not damaged the bone, but he still walked with a limp.

  "Su Yu, let me see the weapon you used earlier." Wang Yan approached Su Yu. Using Soul Tools was prohibited on the competition field; doing so was considered cheating.

  However, when Su Yu pulled out a bone-piercing nail, the remaining two opponents widened their eyes in surprise. After Wang Yan carefully compared it and confirmed that it wasn't a soul tool, he announced that the match would continue.

  "This is just an ordinary weapon, not a soul tool. I declare the match continues!"

  "Want to continue? Want me to give you a few more?"

  The bone-piercing nail gleamed coldly in the sunlight, and the two opponents couldn't help but tremble. Just one nail had already eliminated one of them; if a few more hits came, they probably...

  "We surrender..."

  Under the pressure of Su Yu's hidden weapon, they didn't want to be seriously injured in this match, otherwise they would have no hope in the next round.

  It was safer to surrender directly. Two against three, and besides, Wang Dong and Su Yu are stronger than them; they had no chance of winning.

  In the previous freshman class, apart from Lan Luoluo falling into a coma and still unable to fight after waking up, Huang Chutian's powerful combat strength led to a victory in the next round. Although the process was somewhat bumpy, it must be said that his previous decision to surrender was correct.

  It was precisely because of Class 7's subsequent victories that other teams generally don't want to face Su Yu and his team, and mostly chose to surrender. After all, the best option was to conserve strength for the next match.

  Ultimately, to everyone's anticipation, Su Yu's team, representing Class 1, achieved a perfect record.

  "Su Yu, you three stay behind." Wang Yan also wanted to know how Huo Yuhao had defeated Lan Luoluo, and even more so, he wanted to know Huo Yuhao's martial soul and soul skills.

  Next, Wang Yan asked Huo Yuhao about his martial soul and soul skills, but Huo Yuhao evaded the question.

  Su Yu and Wang Dong didn't ask anything, but finally, Huo Yuhao couldn't hold back any longer, "Don't you want to know what my martial soul is?" 

  "No."

  "No!"

  Two voices interrupted Huo Yuhao's daydreams in unison, and the three of them looked at each other and burst into laughter.

  However, just as they were about to reach the cafeteria, Wang Dong couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Su Yu, how did you know that Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo have a Spirit Fusion Skill?"

  Huo Yuhao, though silent, said it all with his hopeful eyes.

  "It's actually very simple. They're twins. When I saw that their Spirit was hair, I basically guessed that they could very likely use a Spirit Fusion Skill. After all, the compatibility of twins is already at a different level. Moreover, if it weren't a Spirit Fusion Skill, then..."

  Su Yu hadn't finished speaking when he saw Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong looking at him with extremely abnormal expressions.

  "Do I have words on my face? Do I have the answer on my face?" Su Yu asked calmly.

  "No, no..." Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao said in unison, shaking their heads in denial.

  Su Yu was amused by the two guys' bizarre behavior. "Then why are you looking at me like that? Do I have any words on my face? Just listen to me quietly."

  "Then, Su Yu, continue..."

  Although Su Yu's words still seemed unbelievable to the two, Su Yu couldn't very well tell them, "Hello, I'm from Blue Star, a transmigrator. Wang Dong, your father was someone who couldn't make it on our side and then transmigrated..."

  Of course, some things cannot be said and better to make it still hidden, but right now, these two kids were completely fooled by Su Yu.

  Hopefully, their future opponent wouldn't be Dai Huabin. Otherwise, with Dai Huabin's Evil Eye White Tiger, a three-ring Soul Master, after fusing with the Zhu family's Zhu Lu, his Netherworld White Tiger would be difficult even for a four-ring Soul Master to handle.

  If they met, it might really be...

  Zhou Yi was quite responsible, analyzing the situation of their strongest opponent, Dai Huabin, for them. To celebrate this perfect ten-game winning streak, Su Yu generously announced that he would treat them to a meal, and everything would be on his tab. After all, Su Yu was known for being rich in the class.

  "Yuhao, everything for ordinary people has to be earned through their own efforts. Not everyone has such good opportunities as you. You have to walk your own path in the future."

  After paying the bill, Su Yu watched Yuhao happily eating before leaving the cafeteria with Wang Dong.

  Back in the dormitory, the old man on the recliner by the door seemed perpetually asleep. Passing by, Su Yu simply gave him a slight bow.

  The freshman elimination round, the competition to narrow down from thirty-two to sixteen, officially began when the morning bell rang.

  Looking at the proud girl with short red hair opposite him, Su Yu was almost depressed. It seemed that his appearance hadn't affected the world at all. Did that mean he would really have to face Dai Huabin's team in the future?

  Damn it, can you stop torturing me like this? All the teams behind me have three rings, and I'm only a three-ring player! This is too much...

  God bless me, Goddess Nuwa bless me, please bless me so I don't have to face Dai Huabin's team!

  "Class 9, Freshmen, Wu Feng. Level 25 Power Attack-type Battle Soul Master." The girl with short red hair spoke arrogantly, her eyes filled with disdain for Su Yu's team.

[Wu Feng's reference]

 "Class 9, Freshmen, Nanmen Yun'er. Level 24 Agility Attack-type Battle Soul Master." The girl with long light green hair had a soft voice and appearance completely opposite to Wu Feng. 

[Nanmen Yun'er reference]

  A calm voice rang out from the girl with short golden hair, "Class 3, Freshmen, Ning Tian, ​​a level 31 support-type Soul Master."
