Chapter 51: I told you not to end on a sentimental note
Both of Wang Nan's inspection missions went smoothly.
Even if they are soul masters with the same soul power level, the strength of Shrek Academy disciples is much greater than that of ordinary soul masters, not to mention when their soul power level exceeds that of their opponents.
On the way back, Wang Nan took advantage of the break to tell Zhang Lexuan about his discoveries in Lingdou City.
"What is your judgment?" Zhang Lexuan asked after listening.
"I'm not sure, but the biggest possibility is that the boss's hometown really is holding a similar sacrifice."
"Okay, I will report it to the college and let them investigate." Zhang Lexuan looked into Wang Nan's eyes and said seriously.
After a moment, Zhang Lexuan stood up.
"Okay, let's get ready to go. Xiaotao, you and Wang Nan should switch positions. You will be in charge of the right side of the team, and Wang Nan and I will be at the front."
Everyone looked at Zhang Lexuan, feeling somewhat confused.
"Four years later, you will represent Shrek Academy to participate in the Soul Fighting Competition." Zhang Lexuan saw the puzzled expressions of the crowd and explained patiently, "If a team wants to exert its full strength, it needs a captain to step forward and command the battle."
Zhang Lexuan didn't say the rest of the words, but others already understood.
At first, Zhang Lexuan brought Ma Xiaotao with him as a candidate for the captain. In fact, most teams choose the person with the highest soul power level as the captain, which can also convince others.
But after this monitoring mission, Zhang Lexuan discovered that Ma Xiaotao's character was a bit impulsive. On the contrary, although Wang Nan was younger, he never fought to the end and was very decisive when taking action. He was also able to remain vigilant. This caution, which exceeded that of other team members, could better protect the safety of the team.
"I understand." Ma Xiaotao's position as "captain" was taken away, but she didn't seem to care at all. She nodded and obediently went to the right side of the team.
"Come with me." Zhang Lexuan urged the flying soul guide to rise into the air, and Wang Nan quickly followed.
"As the person walking in the front of the team, in addition to being the first to face the situation ahead and respond, you must also take into account the overall strength of the entire team." Zhang Lexuan said to Wang Nan while controlling the flying soul guide.
"As a captain, you must have a sufficient understanding of the situation of each member of the team. Even if it is a temporary team, you should know the approximate strength and martial spirit tendencies of the members."
Zhang Lexuan told Wang Nan a lot of things along the way, just like a teacher. In addition to her strength, she was able to answer questions and solve problems for every inner courtyard disciple, which was also one of the important reasons why she could be called the senior sister of the inner courtyard in the future.
"By the way, the academy has lowered the admission criteria for inner courtyard students in the past two years. After you go back this time, you should be able to apply to study in the inner courtyard."
"What is the assessment for the inner courtyard?" Wang Nan asked curiously.
"For ordinary disciples, the inner courtyard assessment includes two parts: actual combat and character, as well as a recommendation from at least one inner courtyard disciple. As a reserve member of the Shrek Supervisory Group, you won't have any problems with character and recommendation, so the only thing left is the actual combat assessment."
"The assessment for the Strong Attack Department is the simplest. In previous years, the assessment content was to gather the disciples who passed the character test to compete in a one-on-one match. The winner would be selected to enter the Inner Court. In other words, the elimination rate for entering the Inner Court is at least 50%. Of course, you are only in the fourth grade now. You will have an opportunity to apply to enter the Inner Court every year until you graduate from the Outer Court in the sixth grade."
Zhang Lexuan glanced at Wang Nan when she said this, "But as far as I know, there has never been a case where a core disciple failed to pass the inner courtyard assessment."
Wang Nan didn't know if this was a consolation, but he still thanked Zhang Lexuan. The rest of the journey was basically uneventful, and they quickly returned to the academy.
The three inner court disciples returned to Poseidon Island. They also had to report the progress of this monitoring mission to the academy. The remaining outer court disciples also parted ways and returned to the dormitory to rest.
Wang Nan did not return to the dormitory with Gong Yangmo, but came to the fighting spirit area. He was not a procrastinator. Since he had decided to participate in this year's inner courtyard assessment, he would find Sun He as soon as possible to confirm this matter. At this time, Sun He should still be taking practical classes in the fighting spirit area.
Wang Nan arrived at the fighting spirit area with ease. As soon as he entered, he saw a group of people gathered around a ring. Most of them were first-year disciples wearing white school uniforms.
"Hasn't the freshman assessment already ended? What are you all doing here?"
Wang Nan took a look from a distance and found that the two people fighting on the ring were people he knew.
One of them was Xu Sanshi, who had spoken to Wang Nan on the day of freshman registration. Although he was playing, he still had a smile on his face. The other was a boy of similar height to Xu Sanshi, with eye-catching dark blue hair.
Wang Nan had seen this child beside Moon before, and if he guessed correctly, it should be Beibei. However, Beibei at this time was not as elegant and easy-going as he was later. At this time, his face looked a little ugly, and his right hand was carrying violent lightning and kept hitting Xu Sanshi.
"Who do you think will win?"
Sun He came to Wang Nan's side without knowing when.
"The one holding the shield." Wang Nan laughed. "Although it seems that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex has the upper hand now, it actually didn't cause much damage to the defensive disciple."
"On the contrary, he will consume more soul power if he keeps attacking. If he cannot find the weakness of the defense disciple in a short period of time, he will definitely lose if the stalemate continues."
"Of course. This trip has broadened my horizons a lot." Sun He nodded, agreeing with Wang Nan's judgment.
"Teacher Sun, don't you have class today?"
"Humph, if you don't make trouble in class, it won't take me a minute to deal with the other guys." Sun He suddenly sighed, "You didn't come to me this time to take a practical class, did you?"
"Yes." Wang Nan nodded, "I want to apply to participate in this year's inner courtyard assessment."
"When you were taking the entrance exam, I knew I couldn't take you for the full six years. You would definitely apply to enter the Inner Court in advance. But I didn't expect you to get to this point before you even spent half the time in the Outer Court."
Sun He suddenly mentioned the entrance examination, and he had a feeling of "I have seen you as something special since you were a child", but he did not sigh for too long, "I will arrange the registration for you, but there is still some time before the formal examination, so you should take this time to prepare well."
"I understand, Mr. Sun."
"Then you can watch it slowly and verify your judgment. I will go and help you prepare for the registration."
Watching Sun He leave the fighting spirit area, Wang Nan suddenly felt a sense of farewell as if he were about to graduate in his previous life. However, before he could savor it, a voice from the ring interrupted him.
"Hey, senior brother, do you want to come up and compete?"
Xu Sanshi had already won the game and was waving at Wang Nan, obviously recognizing him.
Xu Sanshi only has two rings of soul power now, how could he possibly be Wang Nan's opponent? He is just like that, and when he sees someone he knows, he can't help but talk to them.
Wang Nan just waved at the ring and then walked out of the fighting spirit area.
