When everyone returned to the starting point to drink water, the Master first looked at Aoskin with a meaningful gaze, then spoke, "The web-shooters Aoskin made can only be used by him. If others want to use them, they must make it themselves.
Of course, the teachers are very understanding. If you can't replicate it, you can also choose to design and make your own version. As long as the tool you make meets the training requirements, then it can be used."
The Master spoke very casually, but after he finished speaking, Aoskin clearly felt the teammates' gazes, filled with deep "affection," focused on him.
But it was only a look. Everyone could still understand the teachers' good intentions. Aoskin would at most have to scrub a few more large wooden buckets and wash a couple more bowls. There wouldn't be any big problems.
The calm and fulfilling time always passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, the students' training had already lasted for a month.
During this month, everyone truly felt they had a deeper understanding of their teammates, and their cooperation became more tacit. Tang San also perfectly integrated himself into the students' small group through his own efforts during this time, successfully turning his words into reality.
At the same time, the arduous training also comprehensively improved every student's physical fitness, including stamina, strength, body coordination and agility, and nerve reaction speed.
Through daily combat practice, the freshmen were now able to skillfully use Soul Tools in their battles.
The older students had further developed the potential of their martial souls. Aoskin could now be considered a very qualified Defense-type Battle Soul Master.
Today was the end of the first phase of the training. Flender, who hadn't shown up on the training ground for a while, was giving everyone a speech, making a final training summary:
"Little monsters, congratulations on successfully completing the first phase of the training. Now you can get a valuable seven-day vacation.
Although it's a vacation, I hope you all don't relax your soul power cultivation. After the vacation, we will conduct a soul power test. For those whose test results don't satisfy me, the Master will give them an exclusive training plan. I think you wouldn't want to have to take on this training plan at the same time as the second phase of training.
Finally, during these seven days, the Master will be the only teacher staying at the school. The other teachers will go to the Star Dou Great Forest to help me hunt for my eighth Soul Ring. If we haven't returned before the second phase of training begins, then you must follow the Master's orders."
"Teacher, have you broken through to level eighty?" The little fatty Ma Hongjun, very rarely, pinpointed the key point in Flender's words the moment he finished speaking.
The others also temporarily ignored the annoying content of "second phase of training" and "soul power test after the vacation" and sent their blessings and congratulations to Flender.
Flender and the other teachers were now beaming with joy. With a Soul Douluo in charge, Shrek Academy could barely be considered a first-rate power on the continent. It couldn't compare to the top powers with Title Douluos, but its safety had undoubtedly improved significantly.
Amidst the playful atmosphere, no one noticed that Xiao Wu's face had turned a little pale, except for Aoskin.
After a full half hour, the teachers finally chased the students back to their temporary dorms, urging them to pack their belongings and prepare to return to the Shrek Academy campus.
Back in his dorm, Aoskin only took fifteen minutes to pack everything he needed into his storage Soul Tool. Because he spent most of his time training, this temporary dorm was, in a sense, just a place to sleep, and there wasn't much stuff.
Seeing that Ma Hongjun was still busy and didn't seem like he'd be finished anytime soon, Aoskin simply walked out of the room. He could use this time to find Kao En. According to Aoskin's observation, this stupid dog's recent behavior was really very abnormal. For a whole month, unless Aoskin sent a message to this stupid dog, he basically couldn't see it. Occasionally, he saw Kao En at the training base, but it was always late at night, and Kao En would leave again the next morning.
You know, Kao En used to stick to Aoskin whenever he had the chance. How could he possibly be out of sight for such a long time? This huge contrast successfully piqued Aoskin's curiosity. Since he had some time now, Aoskin decided to satisfy his curiosity.
Carefully recalling the few times he had seen Kao En, Aoskin determined that Kao En's destination was probably the north of the valley, a direction that could truly go deep into the mountains.
Arriving at the northern side of the small valley, Aoskin paused at the foot of the mountain. Although the mountain range wasn't a place where Soul Beasts usually gathered, Aoskin cautiously put on his Mecha.
Considering that the time spent going into the mountain might be a bit long, Aoskin also specifically sent a message to Oscar to inform him of his whereabouts.
After making these preparations, Aoskin activated the detection Soul Tool on his Mecha. He needed to find out if there were any recently cleared paths or something similar, so he could search more effectively.
Not long after, a path appeared on the display screen of Aoskin's faceplate. The cut marks on the branches around the path were very fresh, and judging from the height of the cuts, it was unlikely to be caused by human activity.
"Most likely it's here," Aoskin thought to himself. Since he had already found the location, Aoskin didn't delay any further. He activated the stealth Soul Tool on his Mecha and quickly moved along the path.
Half an hour later, Aoskin's expression wasn't looking too good. Relying on the movement assistance system on his Mecha, Aoskin's speed through the forest wasn't much slower than that of a general all-terrain vehicle. In half an hour, Aoskin had already gone about ten kilometers deeper into the mountains, but he still hadn't found Kao En's shadow.
If the detection Soul Tool hadn't already captured all sorts of details proving that this path was the one Kao En usually took, Aoskin would have given up and turned back by now.
"What's that idiot Kao En doing wandering so far into these deep mountains for no reason? Forget it. If I still can't find that idiot in ten minutes, I should go back. Counting the time, everyone should be about to set off."
Fate proved to be on Aoskin's side. Five minutes later, his Soul Tool detected a female wolf chasing a rabbit. Aoskin, not wanting to disturb the local wildlife, prepared to slightly alter his course to avoid the wolf.
However, having already changed direction, Aoskin suddenly noticed something amiss and corrected his course again. A flicker of uncertainty crossed his eyes as he increased the scanning range of his Soul Tool.
Looking at the results displayed on his faceplate, Aoskin muttered to himself, "There really isn't a wolf pack nearby."
The feedback from the Soul Tool confirmed that the female wolf before him was healthy and strong.
According to Aoskin's memories of wolves, such a female wolf was unlikely to be a lone wolf. However, there were no signs of any wolf pack activity in the vicinity. The female wolf's solitary hunting behavior directly confirmed that she was indeed a lone wolf.
Something out of the ordinary must be afoot. Aoskin activated his recording Soul Tool to capture the scene while cautiously following the female wolf from a distance.
Vaguely, Aoskin already had some guesses about Kao En's unusual behavior. Now, it was time to verify his speculations.
