Douluo: Starting from the Spirit of Time Worm

"Huh? Why?" Vidal was a little surprised. He couldn't figure out why Amon refused.

He thought that he was quite strong, and he had a city lord father to rely on. He had a background and ability. It was a win-win choice to cooperate with him.

"I should have made it very clear just now. The Northern Advanced Soul Master Academy is not a place where you can represent the academy to participate in the competition just because you have talent and ability.

"It is impossible for civilian soul masters to organize a team.

"You don't seem to have a big force behind you to support you.

"Before, there were also civilian soul masters who wanted to defeat the teams organized by other noble children, win the competition in the academy and win the qualification to participate.

"They are indeed capable, but before the finals in the academy, the team fell apart. Their members left the team one after another and joined other teams.

"Some were threatened, some were induced...

"So if your goal is the Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, there must be one person in the team with enough background... maybe one person is not enough.

"Or do you think I am too weak and unworthy to team up with you? "

At the end, Vidal's face also had a hint of anger. He thought he had shown enough respect and kindness to Amon, and he didn't think his strength was bad.

In the Northland College, his talent might not be the best, but he was definitely one of the top ones.

Amon smiled, "I don't think you are weak and unqualified to be with us... I also think it's a good choice to team up with you."

"Hmm?" Vidal was a little confused by the inconsistent statement.

Amon continued: "But I won't join your team, I will choose my own partners. My goal is not just to participate in the competition... Don't you think it's interesting to win a championship?"

"Champion...Champion? "Vidal was surprised at his goal.

The Northern Province is a region directly under the jurisdiction of the royal family. It belongs to the Tiandou City Division and has five qualifying places. To pass the preliminaries, you must get the top five results in many advanced soul master academies.

But the five elemental academies are like a mountain in front of them, which makes the students of the Northern Academy unable to muster the courage to climb.

Vidal's biggest goal is to qualify for the competition. If he can perform well in the preliminaries, it will be even better.

He never thought about entering the finals from beginning to end, and as for the championship, it is even more unrealistic.

Amon nodded, "Yes, the championship... So I need the dominance of the team, and I can't accept people who don't meet the requirements to enter.

"From your description, in the Northern Academy, the captain of the participating team should have a lot of power, because this is a team competition, and the captain is the core of the team.

"Ask yourself, if you are the captain, can you refuse those students who are on good terms with your family but are a little bit weaker in strength to join?"

Vidal fell silent, he shook his head, "It's unlikely, I have to compromise. "

Amon said in a gentle but firm voice:

"Yes, it involves conflicts of interest, and choices, concessions and compromises must be made. I believe that the conditions for me to compromise will be more difficult to achieve than the conditions for you to compromise...

"I am not so easy to buy, nor so easy to be threatened, and there are no complicated things such as family affection, friendship, and family relationships to consider.

"It is not so easy to make me give in.

"As far as I am concerned, your strength is already the bottom line requirement, but your bottom line seems to be lower."

"It seems that you are very confident... The champion, that is something I dare not even think about." Vidal laughed dumbly, he glanced at Yan Jin and Lei Yin, his expression was a little helpless, "If they are all talented, there may be hope in the next session, but I can't wait that long, I am already nineteen years old.

"However, if you really have the confidence to win the championship and show such strength, then the various forces in the academy will not break up your team.

"They will only try their best to send the outstanding students who meet your requirements to your team..."

Amon suggested: "How about leaving the captain to the academy to decide?"

"Okay... If you are strong enough, then you will be the captain." Vidal nodded, with some expectation and ambition in his eyes. If possible, he certainly wants to have a better performance.

"Hey? Golden hair? Amon agreed to your joining?" Yan Jin has been paying attention to the movement here, walked over and patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Well... As for strength, it's okay."

Vidal's mouth twitched, revealing a bitter smile. Yan Jin's words were hurtful because they were the truth.

In fact, after the conflict in the tavern, although Vidal affirmed Yan Jin's talent, he did not think that the other party had surpassed him now. He seemed passive in the tavern because the space was small and he could not play the speed advantage.

However, after seeing the last scene of her sparring with Lei Yin, he changed his mind and admitted that he could not beat Yan Jin.

Maybe Amon said that I was the bottom line, or because I helped him hunt for spirit rings, he lowered some of the requirements and gave me some face... Vidal thought to himself.

After Vidal left, Yan Jin asked after realizing it, "Amon, you are going to hunt for spirit rings here? Why don't you go to the academy first?"

Amon pinched his monocle, "Maybe I'm overthinking, or maybe not... Anyway, I need to go to the academy with a better and more outstanding attitude.

"I originally planned to get the spirit ring after going to the academy, and I wanted to use the power of the academy to make hunting easier.

"As for now, the same effect can be achieved with the help of Vidal."

Lei Yin looked a little solemn. Amon would not change the plan casually. The change in the plan meant that something unexpected had happened during this period.

"Those... thieves?"

"Hmm? What did you say?" Yan Jin heard Lei Yin's muttering and asked.

"No, it's okay." Lei Yin shook his head, looked at Amon and asked, "Do you need us to go together?"

"Hmm." Amon nodded, "I don't have too many means of attack at the moment, and I need your help.

"Don't act casually when you reach the Iron Heart Mountains. This time the target is a bit tricky.

"The eyeless snake is not a soul beast with low combat effectiveness like the slime. On the contrary, they are powerful predators.

"The five thousand year old eyeless snake is as powerful as the best of the soul sect, or the general soul king."

"Soul king?" Lei Yin felt heavy pressure.

He and Yan Jin relied on the special nature of their martial souls to fight against Soul Lords, but it was impossible for them to cross two ranks to challenge Soul Sects, let alone Soul Kings.

Yan Jin also looked solemn, but said confidently: "But since you included it in the hunting range from the beginning, it means that you are sure that you can take it down with the strength of the three of us."

Although she didn't like to think much, she knew Amon better than Lei Yin and knew that he would never do anything without confidence.

Amon pinched his monocle and smiled noncommittally.
