I get that the stator is fed 3 phase supply and the rotor is fed a dc supply. And it reaches a stage where the constant flux by dc current in rotor and the rotating magnetic flux by ac current in the stator winding locks up in N-S and S-N form and thus the rotor rotates. BUT in asynchronous motor the rotating magnetic field induces an EMF in the rotor winding which causes a current flow in the rotor thus generating its own magnetic flux according to Lenz's law. And because of the slip the rotor spins.
Now what happens in case of a synchronous motor? How will the rotor deal with the induced EMF created in the rotor by the rotating magnetic field of the stator?

The effect of the stator (armature) magnetic flux on the rotor field is called armature reaction. In synchronous machines, the effect is modeled as a slight increase in the synchronous reactance.
