Ning Rongrong's pretty face was filled with resentment.

She stepped forward, her chin slightly raised.

"I don't believe you!"

"Besides, I'm just a support-type Soul Master; I'm no good at fighting."

"If you're so capable, let's not compete in fighting, but in soul power! Let's see who has the higher level!"

In her opinion, her level 44 soul power was already the absolute best among her peers!

Xiao Wu, what makes you think you can surpass her?

Xiao Wu burst out laughing upon hearing this.

"Comparing soul power?"

She took two steps forward as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"OK."

The next moment, a surge of soul power erupted from Xiao Wu.

Yellow, yellow, purple, black, black!

Five spirit rings, each with its own unique aura, rose one after another from beneath Xiao Wu's feet, swirling around her.

The last two black spirit rings emitted energy fluctuations.

Soul King!

"A...a five-ring Soul King!"

Ning Rongrong's mouth opened into an "O" shape.

Zhu Zhuqing almost instinctively took a half step back.

Xiao Wu? She's actually the Soul King?

How is that possible!

How long have they been separated?

Dugu Yan reacted the most violently; all the color drained from her face, leaving it pale.

Having just raised her soul power to level 45, she secretly rejoiced that she would be a favored daughter of heaven!

In the upcoming Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, I will be one of the most dazzling contestants!

But compared to this even smaller girl, he paled in comparison.

Are all the people around Ning Liu monsters?

Yang Bubai, who stood silently to the side, also clenched his fists tightly, feeling the powerful fluctuations of soul power.

"This...this is impossible!"

Ning Rongrong finally snapped out of her shock.

She turned her head sharply, looking at Ning Liu with a face full of grievance.

"Brother Ningliu! You must have secretly given her something good to eat!"

Her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

"Last time I wanted you to help me advance to Soul King, and you said there was no way!"

"Why can she get it! You're being unfair!"

The accusation, tinged with jealousy and resentment, instantly made the atmosphere in the room somewhat strange.

Faced with Ning Rongrong's accusations, Ning Liu showed a helpless expression.

He reached out and rubbed his temples.

“Rongrong, Xiaowu’s situation is quite special; her constitution is different from yours.”

He didn't explain further.

"Alright, that's settled then. Xiao Wu will officially join the Liuli Tian team."

He abruptly changed the subject, drawing everyone's attention back from their previous shock.

"Tomorrow is the opening ceremony and the first round of elimination matches for the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. Your current soul power can indeed be improved further."

"What?"

Ning Rongrong, with tears still clinging to her eyelashes, stopped immediately upon hearing this and curiously leaned closer.

"Hehe, I knew you were the best, Brother Ning Liu!"

Her expression changed instantly; she affectionately took Ning Liu's arm and said in a coquettish tone.

"What good thing is it? Take it out and let me see!"

This dramatic turn of events left Zhu Zhuqing, Dugu Yan, and the others looking at each other in bewilderment.

Their hearts were even more shaken than Ning Rongrong's.

Can it be improved?

Ning Liu flipped his palm over, and a handful of crystal-clear crystals appeared out of thin air in his palm.

These crystals vary in size and emit a soft glow.

There are white ones.

Some are yellow.

It has a purple hue.

As soon as they appeared, the entire room was filled with a pure aura of soul power. Just one breath made people feel that the soul power in their bodies had become much more active.

"This is a crystallization of soul power."

Ning Liu's voice was flat.

"It contains the purest soul power, which can be directly absorbed to increase the level of soul power."

He then handed the soul power crystal in his hand to Ning Rongrong.

"White corresponds to ten years, yellow to a hundred years, and purple to a thousand years."

"Take these and distribute them to everyone. Let them absorb them; there's no limit!"

What Ning Liu took out was naturally the crystallized soul power that had been condensed in the Soul Battle Energy Gathering Array over the past few days.

Apart from the black-grade crystals, the other crystals had little effect on improving Ning Liu's soul power.

Ning Rongrong took it immediately, feeling the warm energy emanating from her palm, her face flushed with excitement.

A treasure that can be directly absorbed to increase soul power, with no upper limit?!

She had never even heard of such a thing before!

Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan felt that their worldviews were being overturned time and time again.

One of them came from a powerful imperial family, and the other from a family of titled Douluo. They considered themselves well-informed, but the things Ning Liu casually produced became more and more unbelievable.

"Hehe, okay!"

Ning Rongrong immediately beamed and began distributing the candy to everyone, one by one.

Everyone received some, and they were all different colors.

Seeing their excited expressions, Ning Liu added a comment.

"This is just the appetizer; there will be much more once the competition officially begins."

These words made everyone, who had just calmed down, start breathing rapidly again.

And there's more!

Then, Ning Liu looked at the elated Ning Rongrong.

"By the way, what are your tactical plans for tomorrow's match?"

"Tactics?"

Ning Rongrong blinked, tilted her head, and looked completely matter-of-fact.

"What is that?"

"With so many of us and such high soul power, why don't we just go up and fight!"

She waved her little fist, her face full of "we are invincible" vibes.

Upon hearing this, Ning Liu was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Too.

With their current setup, there's one Soul King, a group of Soul Masters, and Zhu Zhuqing, although not a Soul Master, is still a top-tier agility-based attacker.

Such a team really doesn't need any tactics during the qualifiers.

"Alright, whatever you say."

Ning Liu waved his hand.

"Go back now and hurry up and absorb the soul power crystals."
