23 Poisonous Wang Wei

After some time Wang Wei opened his eyes again.

"Hey, man. It's been a few hours, did you succeed?" Long Yue asked.

Wang Wei smiled as he showed his hand he had two light yellow soul jewels. On a little lighter than the other one.

"Yeah, it worked. I am now officially a chi fighter." Wang Wei said with a big smile on his face.

"Well show us what your new soul technique is." Lee Zheng said.

"Okay, let's go outside and find a soul beast on which I can use it. We can use its corpse for cultivation or sell the items we get from it." Wang Wei said.

The three boys went outside. They soon ran into a soul beast it was a three-hundred-year-old sun raccoon.

"Okay, you ready?" Wang Wei said as his second soul jewel began to glow up.

"Come on. Show us." Long Yue said.

The next moment a purple mist shot out from Wang Wei' mouth. When it hit the sun raccoon it immediately started to turn purple and then it fell down. It was dead.

"Wow, what do you call that technique?" Long Yue asked.

"I think I'll call it poison breath. I also have another idea for it." Wang Wei said.

"Really? What are you thinking of?" Lee Zheng asked with a curious look in his eyes.

"Well, what if I first used my snake claws and after that used it on the tips of my snake claws. Then the tips would be poisoned. If that happened, even the smallest scratch could take out an opponent." Wang Wei said.

"Yeah, that may be but it would take you a long time to prepare. And I don't think you can walk on stage with your snake claws. You aren't allowed to do anything before the competition that improves your chances of winning. And I don't even know if it will work. What if the poison is just gas and will not stick." Long Yue said. "I think it's best to play it safe and just keep everything it is now and after the tournament experiment."

"Yeah, you're probably right." Wang Wei said. "Let's go back. It is almost dinner time and we need to go back through the entire forest."

"Yeah. Let's go." Lee Zheng said.

The boys arrived just before dinner and they were famished. They ate as if their lives depended on it. After they had their dinner they went back to their rooms to cultivate and go to sleep. As dawn arrived Wang Wei was already running the normal route he ran every morning since they arrived at duskshore city.

"Hello boy." He heard.

"Who is that?" Wang Wei asked.

Then a man came out of the shadows. This person looked very familiar to Wang Wei. It was …

"Senior! What are you doing here so early in the morning?" Wang Wei asked.

"I could ask you the same thing. Hahaha." The old man said. "I am here because I have something to talk about with you since you broke through to the chi fighter rank."

"How do you know that? I only told my friends and teacher and that jerk Long Sha to intimidate him."

"I can sense it. I am a heavenly god. Remember?" The old man responded.

"Oh yeah, right. What did you wanna talk about, senior?" Wang Wei asked.

"It is about your soul form. I can help you with your problem. I know your soul form is the red snake and everyone know that the red snake soul form is pretty trash. But I can help you overcome that problem."

"Yeah, I remember. You talked about evolving my soul form. I still don't really believe you. But since you are a heavenly god I trust you so I will definitely make it in the top eight and enroll in jade academy."

"I am looking forward to that. From what I know you only need one more win for both the duo and trio competition and two more wins for the solo competition. I'll be rooting for you." The elder said.

"Thank you, senior. I appreciate that." Wang Wei said.

A few hours later Wang Wei stood on the competition stage once again.

"And this battle is won once again by Wang Wei. It was over in an instant, his opponent didn't even have time to react. I think the only person who may be able to stop him is his teammate in the duo tournament: Long Yue who also advances to the final sixteen in the solo competition. These boys from victory village are real monsters the came this far with only using their soul jewels once." The announcer said.

The duo competition also started.

"On this side, we have the opponents of the duo coming from Vulcan academy. Wang Wei and Long Yue." The announcer said. And the crowd went wild. It was obvious that these two were the tournament favorites.

The duo coming from Vulcan academy consisted of a boy and a girl. The boy had the black emperor snake soul form and the girl had the eight-clawed bat soul form. They were a strong team but Wang Wei and Long Yue defeated them without ease.

The trio competition was also over within a few moments. After the tournament, the boys were stopped by a reporter on their way home.

"Hey boys. I have a few questions is it okay if I ask them?" The reporter said.

"What kind of reporter are you?" Wang Wei asked.

"I work for soul expert daily in the prodigy section, I keep an eye on rising talents."

"Okay then, ask away." Long Yue said.

"Okay, the first question is for all of you. How is it that you are so in sync and your teamwork is flawless, what kind of training do you do?"

"Well, I and Long Yue have been practicing martial arts together since we were five and even though Lee Zheng only joined us three months ago he is really good at adapting to us." Wang Wei answered.

"Okay, second question. How come you guys are so strong? I mean you never seem like you are in a tough situation during the competition."

"Well, we have already fought against a lot of soul beasts so that could be a lot of help. And compared to three-thousand-year-old soul beasts these opponents are nothing." Long Yue said.

After that, the reporter asked a few more questions and the boys went back to their hotel. The next competition days all went down the same. Easy victories for the three. Then came the finals for the duo and the trio competition. They both were against glory academy. The three were more fired up than ever.
