"Muluofu, it seems the student you recommended is quite good! Mokeda seems to have suffered a bit of a loss!" The only woman among the seven teachers, who was also the only Support-type Soul Master and the only Spirit Emperor, said with a smile. Muluofu replied, "Teacher Lisha, please don't tease me. That child's potential is indeed good, but he's still a bit short of actually making Mokeda suffer. It's just that Mokeda doesn't want to use his Spirit Abilities."
Sure enough, seeing that the people behind him were just watching the show without reacting, Mokeda curled his lips. He looked at Jin Bao and said, "Kid, for today's test, I'll give you an 'Excellent'! However, your control methods are still lacking!"
Second Spirit Ability, Thunder Shadow!
Mokeda's body transformed into a fake body gathered from lightning energy, while his true body had already broken free from the control and landed on the ground.
However, he was still within the control range of Jin Bao's First Spirit Skill.
First Spirit Skill, Money Shield—Modified—Money Pierce!
With Xu Yu's support, the consumption for this large shield of his wasn't too great, allowing him to manipulate it further.
"Oh! There's actually another variation? Your performance is getting better and better!" Mokeda looked at the golden spikes rising around him. After testing them slightly, he knew these spikes were just as hard as the previous shield.
"But this way, you have no means of protection!" Mokeda smiled. "First Spirit Skill, Thunder Speed!"
He dashed straight through before the spikes could rise!
First Spirit Skill, Money Shield—Modified—Money Chains!
Jin Bao used all his remaining spirit power to manipulate his Spirit once again.
The spikes instantly turned into chains, coiling toward Mokeda's feet.
"Another variation? But your spirit power should be at its limit! Leave the stage!" As Mokeda spoke, he struck a palm toward Jin Bao's chest.
Jin Bao watched the approaching palm, knowing he couldn't dodge it and that his spirit power was completely exhausted.
At that moment, at Jin Bao's chest, the Money that had been hidden all along emitted a faint light and trembled slightly.
Eye Opening!
Golden Touch!
These two terms instinctively appeared in Jin Bao's mind.
However, from Mokeda's perspective, Jin Bao's right eye suddenly turned pure gold, and a golden light shone directly into his mind.
'This is... a mental attack!'
Mokeda felt his consciousness blur for a split second, and in the next moment, he found that the circulation of his spirit power had also frozen for an instant.
Immediately after, a force landed on his hand.
"Ah!"
Jin Bao let out a cry of pain. He had actually pulled the teacher out of the arena just now!
However, because of that, the teacher also crashed into his stomach. Fortunately, due to his build, the flesh there was quite firm. Still, a bit of the lightning from the teacher's body transferred over, sending a numbing sensation through his entire body.
As for Xu Yu, after exhausting his spirit power, he had been the first to jump off the stage.
Seeing this scene, he was absolutely stunned.
He had been attending classes for a week before Jin Bao arrived. Because of his own Physique and Spirit, he had been part of the team fighting the teachers for six out of those seven days. The result goes without saying; he was naturally sent off the stage by the teachers every time.
He felt that leaving the stage safely was a great blessing, yet Jin Bao had actually pulled the teacher out of the arena!
Even if the teacher only used his first three Spirit Abilities, and even if Jin Bao was standing near the edge of the field, he was still a teacher! A five-ring Spirit King had been pulled out of the arena boundaries by a Spirit Grandmaster just like that!
Fortunately, while Xu Yu hadn't reacted, Mokeda had. He quickly deactivated his Spirit and pulled Jin Bao up.
"Not bad, kid! Classes have been in session for a month, and you're the first student to make me leave the arena!"
"Hehe, it was just luck!" Jin Bao smiled.
"What do you mean 'luck'? There is no luck on the battlefield. Even in a formal arena match, if you, as a defense-oriented Control System Soul Master, can pull a powerful enemy Agility Attack System Soul Master out of bounds when your support has no combat power left, that is a skill!"
"Hey, hey, hey! I say, Mokeda, do you have no shame? Being pulled out of the arena by a student at the Spirit Grandmaster Realm, and you still have the nerve to brag about being a powerful Agility Attack System Soul Master?" At this time, Muluofu walked over with Lisha.
Two beams of light fell upon Jin Bao and Mokeda, feeling warm and comfortable.
"Haha, I'm just saying. But the kid Muluofu introduced is indeed impressive, especially that last move. I think he can make it into this year's first team!" Mokeda said, giving a thumbs up.
Muluofu said, "Is that so? Then let's talk about it properly! Come, let's go over there." Saying that, he took Jin Bao's hand and walked to the resting area with Mokeda and Lisha.
On the other side, under the teachers' arrangements, today's lecture began.
Looking at the three teachers, Jin Bao felt a bit nervous. He naturally knew what that last move Mokeda mentioned was. Most importantly, he had only just found out about it himself.
'I really didn't expect the Spirit's modification effect on the body to be like this. No wonder I never thought of it before,' Jin Bao thought to himself.
The Golden Eye was one thing; it had shown a hint of its effect when he first absorbed the second spirit ring. But later, as his spirit power increased and he controlled the Golden Eye to return to its normal state, it only provided basic object observation and value analysis. Additionally, since he was either training at school or resting at home, he naturally had no chance to use this ability to judge treasures.
As time passed, he had almost forgotten about this ability.
However, he was also learning about this ability in his finger for the first time. Looking at it now, it should be a modification effect that came with the first spirit ring.
It wasn't his fault; to activate this skill, he needed to use his right middle finger alone to concentrate spirit power and touch the target. In a normal battle, who would specifically use their middle finger to poke an opponent!
Mokeda said, "At the last moment, this kid's eyes turned gold and he used a Mental Shock. I don't know if it was the effect of that move, but even my spirit power experienced a moment of stagnation. That's why I was caught by him and pulled out of the arena."
"A mental attack? Is it a special Spirit Ability?" Lisha asked, looking at Jin Bao.
Spirit Abilities weren't just skills produced by spirit rings. They also included special techniques practiced using spirit power, including force-exertion techniques, spirit power control techniques, and unique skills.
A Mental Shock emitted from the eyes like this was clearly a special Spirit Ability. If it wasn't a Spirit Bone skill or a spirit ring skill, it could only be a special Spirit Ability.
Jin Bao said, "Teacher, I didn't mean to hide it. It's like this. My Spirit is a Mutated Spirit, so it has some other effects. My eyes changed after I absorbed the second spirit ring, and then... it became like this."
Muluofu laughed, "Haha, so that's how it is! Mutated Spirits have always been mysterious; any unknown mutation is possible. But your luck isn't just ordinary, kid!"
