Chapter 260 - Greenish-gold color
He could clearly feel the thick life energy in the air rushing into his body; this feeling was really wonderful. The Soul Power in his body flowed naturally, and the power of the bloodline was absorbing large amounts of that life energy, growing stronger gradually.
Not sure how much time had gone by and all of a sudden, Lan Xuanyu felt a difference. He had awakened his sea of consciousness.
He could still perceive a large amount of life energy entering his body. If the life energy was to be represented, it was green spots of light—gentle, yet full of life energy.
And just at this moment, he realized that among these green light spots, there was a different one. It was also a spot of light, but it was ten times brighter than the others. It was dark green, a very deep green that was filled with vitality. It was suspended in the middle of all the life energies, and on its surface, there were eyes, nose, and mouth like a human.
Then, Lan Xuanyu saw that it grinned at him and shot out abruptly. It bore itself into his sea of consciousness and disappeared.
Right after that, Lan Xuanyu felt that his sea of consciousness was slightly shaken. The initial faint, golden sea of consciousness had an extra tinge of dark green all of a sudden and became a greenish-gold color.
His Spiritual Power seemed to have become slightly stronger and more importantly, in just a short while, Lan Xuanyu realized that this sea of consciousness had a special aura all of a sudden as if it was connected to something.
He quickly focused to feel it but when he focused, he couldn’t feel it at all instead. That aura went off immediately, and everything went back to normal.
But after this, Lan Xuanyu realized that the speed at which he was absorbing the life energy had increased.
Previously, he already had an affinity with life energy and absorbed very quickly. However, the speed at which he was absorbing now had suddenly increased by over 50 percent. With an increase like this, it had directly caused a green halo to appear on the surface of his body. It was bizarre.
And that thick life energy caused the vortex in Lan Xuanyu’s chest to rotate even faster. The colorful spot of light in the core was already very clear, unlike before.
In fact, Lan Xuanyu didn’t totally understand what exactly the strengthening of his bloodline could bring about, but it seemed to benefit him in all aspects. Even his Martial Soul had a very crucial relationship with his bloodline.
He had been studying for so many years and was very familiar with Martial Souls, but he realized now that he was very different from other Soul Masters.
A Soul Master’s bloodline usually wouldn’t have a big impact for an ordinary Soul Master. Having a strong bloodline, one’s Martial Soul would naturally be slightly stronger, but it wasn’t definite. The most important core for a Soul Master was still to increase his or her Soul Power.
But Lan Xuanyu realized that the increase in his overall strength due to the enhancement of the power of his bloodline was way better than the effect from the strengthening of his Soul Power.
Take for example after the mutation this time. Lan Xuanyu was very sure that with his Soul Power of below rank 23, his strength definitely wouldn’t be inferior to those three-ring Soul Masters. He could already feel it a little especially with the use of the power of his bloodline, and this was what he didn’t have in the past.
The enhancement of the power of his bloodline seemed to have a very close relationship with life energy. After arriving at Shrek Academy, his speed of improvement had improved drastically. This was also why he really wanted to stay here to cultivate.
Sitting on the chair with his legs crossed, Ji Hongbin also opened his eyes slowly. At this moment, it was already the evening and the sky outside was dark so that layer of green on Lan Xuanyu was even more obvious. He couldn’t help but smile and nodded slightly—this child really has an affinity with life energy.
Shrek Academy outer court main teaching block.
The pretty president was sitting on the spacious sofa in her own office. She was dressed in a pink long dress with both hands in front of her chest as she looked at the image in the big screen before her that was over a hundred inches.
She had already sat there and watched this over ten times, fast-forwarding and slowing down from time to time. She watched the battle scene on the screen from different angles.
She was watching the scene where Lan Xuanyu and Li Han joined forces and attacked Ling Yiyi.
The scenes that she rewatched the most were when Lan Xuanyu and Li Han joined forces and the attacks they released were instantly changed.
“Dong dong dong, dong dong dong!” There was banging on the door. That’s right; it was banging, so it was really loud.
The pretty president furrowed her brows and lifted her hand to press on her own Soul Guidance communication device. The door opened.
She said without even looking, “Why are you still so rude? Can’t you take note of it?”
“Who asked you to lock your door?” A sloppy-looking, middle-aged man entered. He was the one who gave Lan Xuanyu the assessment at the Shrek Academy Space Center.
“You’re so dirty, don’t sit here! Just go straight to the point if you have something to say and leave when you’re done. Don’t pollute the air around me.” The pretty president said in annoyance.
“I want one of the newcomers from this round. Watch closely during the comprehensive assessment. Don’t die.” The sloppy, middle-aged man stood by the door and didn’t enter at all as he spoke to the pretty president on the sofa.
As he spoke, his eyes landed on the screen and he saw Lan Xuanyu’s golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass wrapped around Li Han’s team.
“Eh?” The sloppy, middle-aged man mumbled, and his gaze changed.
“Who is it? Who could make a great dean like you come over personally, huh? Did nobody apply for your side again?” The pretty president paused the recording and stood up.
The sloppy, middle-aged man said indifferently, “He is the one. I only want this one, and nobody is allowed to fight with me.” As he spoke, he pointed at Lan Xuanyu on the screen.
The pretty president was stunned for a moment, “Him?” She knitted her brows and her expression changed. She hesitated and said, “Get someone else. This child is quite special, he needs special grooming and attention.”
“I only want him. His individual assessment was my Space Command Faculty’s Space Warship Piloting. He is the disciple of Yin Tianfan and belongs to me.” The sloppy middle-aged man said coldly.
The pretty president exclaimed in surprise, “Yin Tianfan’s disciple? That damn fatty. No wonder, no wonder this child was so crafty during the qualifiers. It was actually from that fatty’s teachings. But he is very special and has a very keen sense and attraction toward life energy. He also has a unique Martial Soul. I plan to enroll him in the Battle Armor Faculty and groom him further. His bloodline is even more unique. Let me show you something.”
As she spoke, she adjusted the recording, and very soon, the scene of the single-elimination open tournament was on the screen.
The sloppy, middle-aged man didn’t even finish watching it; his face was covered in shock already, “Martial Soul losing effectiveness? This is the bloodline suppression?”
The pretty president said sternly, “It should be; I saw many of his battle recordings. He also has a very strong enhancement ability for his teammates. He should have a dragon-type bloodline or two types. But what’s for sure is that they are both real dragons. I’m just not sure if these two types of dragon bloodlines would clash. This time, he suppressed a sea Soul Master—this is extraordinary. I suspect that his bloodline is god-rank. It would be a suppression if you’re the enemy but an enhancement if you’re his teammate. Have you met any assist-type Soul Master who could assist others to have the Martial Soul Fusion technique? He did it. Tell me, with such a prodigy, how could I not keep him in the Battle Armor Faculty? I would have paid extra attention to him even without you mentioning him.”
“No, I want this child.”
