Chapter 162: Summon in advance?

“Did we just kill two Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons?” Liu Feng looked at both of them, dumbfounded.

Trembling, Qian Lei blurted, “That’s right, we actually killed two Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons. We took quite a big risk this time!”

Just then, heat suddenly came over and the entire magma pool became hotter.

“Not good! Let’s go!” Lan Xuanyu swiftly used the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass and wrapped it around Liu Feng’s waist. Liu Feng understood immediately, and with Lan Xuanyu’s right hand pushing him, he charged out of the magma pool. Pulling along the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass behind him, he simultaneously brought two people out of the magma pool as well.

Lan Xuanyu turned his body slightly and caught up with Liu Feng, who was sinking, and pushed him once again. His Soul Skill already released, Liu Feng struck his White Dragon Spear downwards. He relied on the opposing momentum produced by the magma to charge towards the shore with Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei.

“Swish!” A beam of light flashed. The Emerald Demon Bird returned to the Gate of Summoning above Qian Lei’s head and disappeared without a trace. The Emerald Demon Bird had seemed quite satisfied, and before it left, it took a longing glance at Lan Xuanyu’s team; they trembled under its ferocious gaze.

Since this ferocious bird was already replicated, it probably would not appear again. The Soul Skill Replicate wasn’t really replicating a soul beast but producing a sort of summoning connection. He could summon it twice at the same time but the duration would be reduced.

The probability of summoning the same Emerald Demon Bird next time would be very small.

The three people had just clambered on the shore when they felt an intense heat from behind them; the temperature of the magma pool was clearly different from before.

In front of them were two gigantic Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons. Lan Xuanyu quickly pulled Qian Lei and Liu Feng, and dashed towards them immediately. However, those two Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons’ bodies began to weaken, and just like that, they vanished in thin air.

A door of red light then appeared before them.

A door?

The three of them froze, but nothing came out of the door. Instead, a huge hand made of coagulated light beams stretched out and waved at them.

What did this mean? Could it be that the qualifier wasn’t over yet?

They had figured that since all the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons were dead, the qualifier should have ended! But what was this then?

However, they didn’t have to hesitate for long. The magma pool behind began gushing all of a sudden, and large amounts of magma began pouring toward the shore.

Lan Xuanyu acted swiftly. “Get in!” Liu Feng and Qian Lei listened to him, and the three of them quickly went into the door of light.

The second they entered, the magma behind surged over and the door of light disappeared without a sound.

The scene before them changed all of a sudden. When they reappeared, Lan Xuanyu’s team had arrived in another world.

It was still a valley, but it was different from the barren valley from before.

In this valley, there was lush vegetation all around. The tall canopy blocked the sunlight, and the entire place was filled with breaths of life.

The three of them were quite tired after escaping that fiery world; they slumped to the floor, panting heavily.

Everything just now was simply too thrilling. Judgment, quick thinking, luck, and strength—none of these could be lacking. It was no simple task to last till the Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons destroyed each other. Even if they were to do it again, they weren’t confident that they could reach this stage.

“What’s going on? Why haven’t they sent us out yet? Don’t tell me that the qualifier isn’t over yet! I don’t believe that there are others as outstanding as us still around,” Qian Lei said in annoyance. No matter what, he felt that the intensity of that qualifier wasn’t something that kids of their age and cultivation could handle.

“Let’s take things as they come,” Lan Xuanyu said. “There must be a reason why they sent us back.”

Just then, footsteps came from the forest.

The three of them became nervous. Liu Feng moved in a flash and stood in front of his companions. Lan Xuanyu waved his right hand and wrapped the two golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass around Liu Feng and Qian Lei’s bodies respectively. Qian Lei tossed out his Coin of Summoning; he had already recovered, so he activated his first Soul Skill, Gate of Summoning, for the second time.

The three people’s adaptability could be described as rapid. It was simply like the saying ‘Once bitten, twice shy’.

A tall, slender figure slowly emerged from the woods, a smile on her face. Wasn’t she Ling Yiyi? The one who sent them into the qualifier?

Seeing that it was her, the three of them heaved sighs of relief and Qian Lei quickly stopped his Gate of Summoning.

“All of you did a fantastic job and achieved pretty good results. You guys were sent here because I have something to tell you,” Ling Yiyi smiled.

“Sister Ling, hasn’t our qualifier ended yet?” Lan Xuanyu asked.

“The qualifier is over in a certain sense,” Ling Yiyi said. “Right now, let’s talk about the most important thing first. Qian Lei.” She turned to look at the boy.

“Ah?” Qian Lei, who was hiding behind, stuck his head out. “What is it, Sister Ling?”

Ling Yiyi smiled. “I’ll tell you some good news. If you’re keen, you’ve gotten an early admission into Shrek Academy.”

“What? Early admission?” Qian Lei was stunned, and he clearly didn’t comprehend what early admission meant.

“Your Martial Soul is recognized by the academy, so you can choose to be enrolled early. This means that as long as you’re keen, you’ll be a new student of the Shrek Academy now, one of the thirty students.”

Qian Lei was shocked. Happiness came too abruptly, and he simply could not believe that everything was real.

He stared at Ling Yiyi, speechless. “Sister Ling, you’re not playing with me, are you?”

“Do you believe me or not?” Ling Yiyi continued to smile. “Also, you’ll need to tell me your decision immediately.”

Qian Lei swallowed. What else was there to be hesitant about? “I’m keen, of course I’m keen! Thank you, thank you!” As he was too excited, his speech was already a little incoherent. Shrek, it was the Shrek Academy ah!

What sort of place was the Shrek Academy? It was the sanctuary of every Soul Master’s dream. Qian Lei had never dreamt that his unreliable Martial Soul would actually attract the attention of the Shrek Academy and allow him to become a student of Shrek Academy’s outer court. This was simply a sudden rise in life! As long as he could successfully graduate from Shrek Academy, he would simply have direct access to heaven no matter what he did in the future.

Although he was only 12-years-old, he understood the meaning of this, and at his age especially, everyone loved to show off. If his family knew that he was a member of the Shrek Academy, this would definitely be a big event that brought honor to his ancestors! Also, he would be the first person to enroll in Shrek Academy! He got excited just by the thought of it.

Lan Xuanyu and Liu Feng were surprised, and couldn’t help but envy him. They really couldn’t help it! He had gone past all the assessments and officially become a new student of Shrek Academy.

It seemed like Qian Lei’s Coin of Summoning Martial Soul was highly looked upon. And how could it not? Just how powerful was the Emerald Demon Bird’s final attack? It had killed two Ground Fire Scarlet Dragons consecutively and turned the impossible into possible.

Seeing how Qian Lei made his decision so excitedly, Ling Yiyi nodded at him. “Alright, follow me later for your registration, then.”

“Sure, sure, thank you, Sister Ling.” At this moment, Qian Lei’s mouth was really sweet!

Ling Yiyi’s gaze turned to Lan Xuanyu and Liu Feng, and a tinge of regret appeared in her eyes. “All of you will be sent back, and I have to say I’m sorry because the subsequent tests designed by the academy need to be conducted in groups of three, so you guys may not be able to participate in the later assessments.”
