That’s right, resting.
Ye Yinzhu’s judgment was undoubtedly the most accurate.
He didn’t share the heated fervor of the other examinees, and his cool head led him to find the most energy-efficient method right from the start, which was to wait.
The duration of this re-examination would last until the evening, which meant about four hours in total.
According to the rules, the Magic Stones would inevitably end up concentrated in the hands of a few individuals by the end, and by then, everyone’s physical strength would be considerably drained.
So why strike now?
The soil within the Spatial Formation was no different from that of the outside world.
Submerged in the earth, Ye Yinzhu quietly began to cultivate, his spiritual power and Douqi operating simultaneously.
He sensed the changes in the breaths of the outside world and kept track of the time while quietly circulating his energy to maintain his body in prime condition.
At this moment, he was not considering the immediate re-examination at hand, but thinking about whether there was a chance to take shortcuts in tomorrow’s Magic re-examination.
Considering the arena format that Kleyena had mentioned, he pondered for a while and still had to give up on the possibility of finding shortcuts.
While Ye Yinzhu was exploring the situation outside, suddenly, his dispersed spiritual power detected a trace of panic—an emotion of the soul.
A thought struck Ye Yinzhu—had someone been killed?
For most people, only after death would the release of their soul give rise to emotional signals.
The soul of an ordinary person could only exist for a very brief moment in the open air after death.
However, if it were a powerful warrior, the soul would last longer.
And since mages train in spiritual power, their souls could persist even longer.
Some truly powerful beings, even after death, would not dissipate their souls.
Examples included the Dragon Bone in the Dragon Domain and Zi rank Powerhouses.
Capturing the location of the soul immediately with his spiritual power, Ye Yinzhu’s Soul Power shot towards it.
Here, he had no worry that someone else’s soul would be stronger and thus rebound against his Soul Power.
A soul full of negative energies appeared before Ye Yinzhu’s spiritual sight.
Without hesitation, following Phil Jackson’s teachings, he released an Eye of the Undead.
Instantaneously, the soul before him transformed.
It was mainly the color that changed—a Green rank soul appeared before Ye Yinzhu.
He couldn’t help but be a little surprised; the warrior’s soul was quite strong, at an Intermediate Green rank.
Although a person’s soul is directly related to their own strength, it doesn’t mean that an Intermediate Green rank warrior would necessarily have a soul of the same rank; it depends on the individual’s spiritual strength.
Of course, this is not an issue for mages.
An Intermediate Green rank mage would definitely have a soul of Intermediate Green rank or higher; this was inevitable.
Faced with the intermediate Green rank soul before him, Ye Yinzhu’s soul took on its true form.
Souls are not visible to the naked eye, nor can they be felt by spiritual power—only a soul can see another soul.
This is the first rule that a Necromancer must master during their studies—the relationship between souls.
Ye Yinzhu’s soul was pletely different from the one before him.
Through the Eye of the Undead, what he saw was like a fog of Green energy, whereas Ye Yinzhu’s soul was a miniaturized version of himself, shining golden with a halo of milky white light encircling it.
Zi rank is the threshold for the soul’s transformation from a foggy state to a true bodily form.
The soul entity Ye Yinzhu condensed also became his Second Body, and a soul that condenses into a Second Body possesses the characteristic of undying after death.
A golden soul entity indicates not only that the soul has reached Zi rank Realm but also has the ability to merge with the Unity of Heaven and Man.
That’s why Ye Yinzhu’s soul was so different.
Absorbing the massive energy from Giant Divine Dragon Nox’s submission, his soul was gradually transforming towards a Sub-God rank.
“e here,” Ye Yinzhu sent a message to the Green fog-like soul through Soul Fluctuation.
The sheer disparity in rank left the other soul incapable of even the thought of resistance, trembling as it drifted towards Ye Yinzhu.
Ye Yinzhu’s soul entity reached out and flicked a speck of gold, embedding it directly into the other’s Green soul without uttering a spell, simply saying to the soul: “From now on, everything about you belongs to me.”
The golden star pierced into the Green fog, and suddenly, light radiated brightly.
The fog’s turmoil was intense, the entire soul wailing miserably.
Quickly, the speck of gold became the core of the entire fog, which shrank rapidly to a tenth of its original size but became much more condensed.
The fluctuations in the soul’s emotions pletely disappeared, leaving only submission.
Forced soul contract.
For souls much weaker than himself, Ye Yinzhu employed the simplest method.
He didn’t capture this soul because he admired its strength; rather, many Undead Magic spells required a large number of souls to be truly effective.
Just like now, after taking in this soul.
This Intermediate Green rank soul would not disperse and would bee an invisible scout for Ye Yinzhu.
By controlling it, within the range of Ye Yinzhu’s spiritual power, whatever this soul body saw, Ye Yinzhu could also see.
The scouting skill of the Undead Mage was indeed excellent, but it also required strong spiritual power support.
The controlled soul could only act within the range of the Undead Mage’s spiritual power control.
It was possible to use one’s own soul for scouting, but no Undead Mage would do so.
The soul was undoubtedly fragile, and if it encountered a chaotic flow of Magic Elements, it might be trapped in an irreversible situation.
With his own soul returned to his body, Ye Yinzhu wandered around the special space created by the Spatial Formation, controlled by his spiritual power.
As soon as his field of vision expanded, he could better observe everything around him.
The retest of the martial contest was even more brutal than imagined.
Everyone who made it to the retest was a powerhouse, with at least the strength of an Intermediate Green rank.
Even without weapons, Douqi surged everywhere in the forest, and the fighting was extremely fierce.
Unless absolutely necessary, no one was willing to give up their Magic Stone, and a variety of attacks emerged one after another.
Sometimes, even groups of people could be seen attacking others together, and then turning on each other to fight over a Magic Stone after defeating their opponent.
The battle was plete chaos.
Even though the Landias Empire had tried its best to constrain the contestants to prevent casualties, the fights were so intense that each contestant’s Douqi became their best weapon.
As time went on, there were still constant casualties.
This was advantageous for Ye Yinzhu.
While cultivating underground, he collected spirits drifting away after death.
Two hours into the battle, the number of souls he controlled had increased to fourteen, including three Blue rank souls and eleven Green rank souls.
Through the monitoring of these souls, he quickly grasped the overall situation in the forest.
In this retest, the most eye-catching were undoubtedly the Zi rank Powerhouses.
According to the testing from the first round, there was not only one Barde at the Zi rank.
In total, there were three high-level experts who had reached the Zi rank, most of whom were at the Initial Zi rank or the Second Rank of Zi rank.
These three individuals were not only strong but also extremely cunning.
With superior strength, they continuously drove one opponent after another out of the Realm, naturally obtaining the most Magic Stones.
At the same time, these three also tried to avoid fighting each other as much as possible.
Although they encountered each other, they quickly withdrew without starting a conflict.
By the third hour of the petition, the forest was not so lively.
About one hundred fifty contestants remained, and to maintain their victories and recover from previous consumption, these warriors mostly chose to hide and rest, not taking action without a good opportunity.
This point in the retest also entered a temporary intermission.
Without a sound, Ye Yinzhu rose from underground.
There was still a little over an hour left, and it was time to make a move.
Without concealing his figure, Ye Yinzhu casually walked through the forest, occasionally looking around, giving the impression he was searching for something.
Suddenly, a blue light burst forth from a large tree next to him.
Descending from the sky, it aimed straight for the top of Ye Yinzhu’s head.
Too bad the attacker couldn’t see Ye Yinzhu’s expression at that moment.
Ye Yinzhu was smiling.
Instead of searching for others one by one, it was better to use himself as bait and let others e to him.
There were no plicated or fancy moves or counterattacks.
He naturally stepped to the left, dodging the sharpness of his opponent’s attack.
His upper body swayed slightly, and in the attacker’s eyes, three Ye Yinzhus suddenly appeared, not just three upper bodies, but three plete Ye Yinzhus.
As he cultivated his Zi Zhu Douqi to its peak, Ye Yinzhu’s mastery of the Arrogant Bamboo Swordsmanship also deepened.
Abilities that could not be used before gradually became available to him.
Without giving the attacker time to be shocked, the three Ye Yinzhus launched their attacks at the same time.
From three directions, three punches were simultaneously thrown, the same Blue Douqi, but sealing off all possible escape routes for the opponent from three different directions.
The assailant leapt down from the tree, with not many options to choose from.
Seeing that Ye Yinzhu had split into three and was simultaneously attacking himself, he exploded with all his Douqi without reservation in shock, curling up his body as tightly as possible and spinning rapidly like a top, while desperately throwing punches towards the three Ye Yinzhus in three directions.
