Chapter 27 Punishment
The next morning, when Ye Li came to the restaurant, he was surprised to find that the Shrek standard breakfast of steamed buns and pickles in the past had been replaced with a hearty meat soup.

"This food will make Flanders, a stingy man, heartbroken."

When the master saw them coming, he gave each of them a large bowl of broth, two steamed buns and two eggs, and said, "Eat quickly. You are still growing. You need to pay attention to your food and take in more nutrition."

Judging from Xiaowu and Ning Rongrong's expressions, the taste of this bowl of soup must be good. Half an hour later, the bell for class rang and everyone gathered in the playground.

The master stood in the middle of the playground with his hands behind his back, looking at the eight students in front of him, headed by Dai Mubai, who were arranged according to age, and said, "I hope to see you in the cafeteria earlier at breakfast time tomorrow. Food needs to be digested after eating, so you can't do strenuous exercise right away. From now on, I will prepare breakfast at dawn. If you don't come to eat within half an hour, you don't have to eat."

The master's sharp eyes swept over the students. He could certainly see that some people didn't listen, but he didn't emphasize it again.

"I have learned something about your martial spirits and abilities. Starting today, I will give you intensive training. Li Ye, step out."

Ye Li took a step forward. Although he looked down on Yu Xiaogang, he was still in class, so he just endured it.

"I have a mission for you. Under the siege of seven of them, you must survive for ten minutes or defeat them."

"What?" Ye Li was stunned. Not only him, but everyone else also looked at the master in surprise.

"Why, if I'm not mistaken, your soul power is close to that of a Soul Sect. Their highest level is only level 37, and there are three people who are less than level 30. Is this requirement very difficult?"

Six minutes later, with the master's call to stop, the final result of this one-sided battle was finally announced.

Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief. Through this battle, he roughly figured out that Tang San's strength was still within his control.

Ma Hongjun couldn't help but say, "It can fly, its attack power is so strong, and its speed is not slow either, how can we fight it!"

The other members of Shrek also seemed to agree with the fat guy. They really had no way of beating Tang San's Blue Silver Grass. It couldn't restrict Ye Li's movements at all. When Dai Mubai faced Ye Li in a strength competition, he felt like he was hitting a wall.

The master was also shocked and said, "It's indeed not simple. The attack power of the sword martial soul is indeed not weak." He had been curious when he heard Zhao Wuji describe the attack power of Li Ye's sword martial soul before, and now that the facts were in front of him, it was even more so.

"Okay, Li Ye, you go to the side and have a rest first. It's time for me to examine you next." Yu Xiaogang said, glancing at the rest of the people.

After Ye Li, the next ones to be beaten were Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar's one-on-two, and Tang San and Xiao Wu's one-on-one.

Looking at the others, the master continued: "Every soul master has his own strengths and weaknesses. There is no perfect soul master in this world. But..."

At this point, the master paused, "However, there is a perfect team. The power of one person cannot reach absolute strength, but a team can achieve perfection through tacit cooperation. With the complementary abilities of each other, it is enough to face enemies of any attributes."

.........

The expression on the master's stiff face was ugly, "Is this the so-called monster genius? I am very disappointed with your performance today. Everyone has made unforgivable mistakes. Now, you all will be punished. Run forward, Supervise each other, do not use soul power, run from the academy to Soto City and back again. Before lunch, I ask you to complete ten round trips. When will you finish running, when will you eat. Tang San, your mistake is the most serious. , so you run twelve times back and forth. Act immediately and start."

Tang San was the first to run out. Master's words were no different from orders to him. Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun followed closely behind. Ye Li, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing looked at each other and saw some helplessness in each other's eyes. They wanted to follow and run towards the gate of Shrek Academy.

"There are prepared rocks at the gate of the academy. Each of you will carry one on your back and run with the load. You must remember that you are a group. If one person fails to complete the punishment, then everyone will not have food." The master emphasized. .

When the eight people arrived at the entrance of the college one after another, they found that there were eight bamboo baskets woven with bamboo, filled with stones of different sizes. Each bamboo basket had a strap and a name written on it.

Ye Li complained in his heart, "So I still have to be punished even though I won the fight."

Among them, Ye Li's basket had the most stones, Tang San, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun had slightly fewer stones in their baskets, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing and Oscar were next, and Ning Rongrong had the smallest stone in her basket.

The master looked at the eight people who were running away with the bamboo baskets on their backs, and a faint smile appeared on his stiff face.

"Isn't it a bit too much punishment to run long distances with a load without using soul power?" Flanders had come to the master's side without knowing when, and said with some concern. Oscar looked at the stone in Li Ye's frame and couldn't help laughing: "Xiao Ye, you are really miserable."

"Laugh, Xiao Ao, you won't be able to laugh later." Ye Li patted Oscar's shoulder and said
But Oscar soon stopped laughing, as everyone soon realized that running ten laps carrying those stones was not an easy task.

"Stop." After running less than two kilometers, Ye Li called everyone to stop.

Ma Hongjun panted and asked, "What's wrong, Fourth Brother?"

Ye Li said: "These bamboo baskets even have names written on them, and they have different weights. It is obvious that they were prepared long ago. Before we set off, the master also emphasized that we are a team. I am afraid this is a test of our teamwork.

Tang San also nodded and said: "Based on my understanding of the teacher, this possibility is very high."

"Mu Bai, Tang Xiaosan and I can definitely complete it, but you may not. Although I have the most stones, their weight is negligible to me. Rongrong is an auxiliary spirit master with a spirit power of only level 26, but she has the same number of stones as Oscar. Obviously, she has exceeded her limit. Perhaps the master's original intention is for us to cooperate with each other and complete the test together."

Oscar wiped the sweat off his face and said with a wry smile: "Xiaoye is right. I really can't hold on for ten trips carrying these stones."

Ma Hongjun suddenly suggested: "Why don't we secretly eat some of Xiao Ao's sausages? Are you still worried that we don't have enough energy?"

Oscar rolled his eyes at him, "How do you know that the master didn't arrange a teacher to monitor us, and you still want to cheat?"

"How about this, the eight of us run at a constant speed according to the slowest one, and when someone runs out of energy, we can adjust the weights. What do you think?"

Dai Mubai nodded and said, "Let's do it this way."

The ones with the worst physical strength among the group were Oscar and Ning Rongrong, who were auxiliary spirit masters. Everyone ran at their pace, moving at a constant speed towards Soto City. They completed the entire first round trip at a constant speed.

When they really started running, everyone felt the pressure brought by the weight. If it was just a normal run, even without using soul power, this round trip would not be considered a big burden. Now with the weight, the body obviously became uncomfortable. After one round trip, Oscar and Ning Rongrong were already sweating profusely, and the others also showed signs of fatigue.

Ning Rongrong undoubtedly has the worst physical strength among everyone. Oscar has at least broken through to level 30, and the third soul ring has brought significant bonuses to the body, but Ning Rongrong is still only level 26.

The weight on Ye Li's body was a stone weighing more than 30 kilograms. He was already a Soul King, and his physical fitness was not comparable to theirs. The effect of these stones on him was the same as nothing.

Dai Mubai and Tang San were carrying 20 kilograms of stones, Ma Hongjun, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing were carrying 15 kilograms. Although Oscar and Ning Rongrong were carrying only 10 kilograms of stones, it was as if they were carrying a mountain and they could only grit their teeth to maintain a constant speed.

Looking at the academy gate again, everyone was surprised to see the master standing at the gate watching them finish their first round trip. Next to the master was a table with a large bucket on it.

"Everyone drink some water before continuing." The master said concisely.

The bucket contained warm water, which was a bit salty, probably because salt was added. Under the master's supervision, each person was only allowed to drink one glass before setting off on the journey again.

The master couldn't help but smile as he watched the eight students leave. Flanders came up from behind him and said proudly, "How are they? The little monsters I trained are pretty good, aren't they?"

The master said: "They are all good children."

Flanders smiled and said, "I believe that no matter where the little monsters are in the future, as long as they gather together, they will still be an inseparable whole."

The master sighed, "I hope so. You can continue to monitor them."
