Chapter 76: I See That Chao Tianxiang Still Has Her Charms
"Uh... A good Soul Skill."
Facing the suspicious gazes of the crowd, Yu Xiaogang finally managed to squeeze out this sentence after holding it in for a long time.
However, inwardly, he was far from as calm as he appeared on the surface; this buzz cut was operating at such a frantic pace that he was practically smoking.
Zhu Zhuqing felt her vision go black upon seeing the situation on the scene, as if all hope in her life had completely vanished.
When she first arrived at Shrek Academy, although she and Dai Mubai had absolutely no rapport, the two Bloodlines inherited from the White Tiger and the Nether Cat still allowed her to vaguely sense a thread of connection between her and Dai Mubai, as if it were there and not there.
But now...
"Zhuqing, come find me after we get back. I have something very important to tell you."
Ning Rongrong found the right moment, moved close to Zhu Zhuqing's ear, and whispered softly.
Although the latter didn't know what Ning Rongrong was plotting, there seemed to be no better solution at the moment, so she could only nod silently.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Yu Xiaogang, as if he had grasped a key point. He stepped forward and said to Dai Mubai in an arrogant tone,
"Mubai, don't put too much pressure on yourself right now. Just like I told you from the beginning, there is already a considerable Soul Power gap between you and your older brother, Dai Weisi. If you don't use some special methods, you won't be able to win against him."
"Although your third Soul Ring didn't achieve the effect I expected, the fact that your Martial Soul has a poison attribute is undeniable."
"Just imagine, as you continue to absorb the Soul Rings I select for you in the future, when you fight Dai Weisi, you can directly use poison that seals the throat upon contact. Wouldn't the position of Crown Prince of the Star Luo Empire be yours then?"
Dugu Bo: A Beast Martial Soul absorbing a poison-attribute Soul Ring? I'm familiar with that!
Hearing this, Dai Mubai nodded in deep agreement.
At that time, he would definitely make his foolish brother wish he were dead!
He excitedly glanced in Zhu Zhuqing's direction, like a peacock spreading its tail feathers. His smug expression seemed to say,'See? I've been cultivating hard all these years."
...
Soon after resolving Dai Mubai's Soul Ring issue, the group encountered the fated Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Snake.
Yu Xiaogang felt that his disciple's White Tiger Martial Soul ultimately lacked flight capability, which would be a major weakness!
Therefore, under his suggestion, Oscar ultimately obtained the Soul Ring from the Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Snake.
As for the charming Chao Tianxiang, upon seeing the rich teaching resources of Shrek Academy and the exceptionally talented students, she naturally began to harbor some small schemes.
Their Dragon Snake Family was currently facing a crisis of lacking powerful successors. It could be said that the entire Beast Martial Soul Academy's status in the Barak Kingdom was entirely propped up by Meng Shu, this Soul Douluo expert.
However, she and her husband were already quite old. If the day came when they passed away, what would become of their Granddaughter, Meng Yiran?
Instead of that...
"Flender, Chao Tianxiang and Meng Shu, along with the Beast Martial Soul Academy behind them and the strength of that couple, represent a considerable asset."
"The other party is clearly interested in our Little Monster. Why don't we take this opportunity to invite them over? Even getting that little girl named Meng Yiran to join Shrek would be a good choice."
"After all, if we want to participate in the subsequent Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, we still don't have enough Little Monsters."
Seeing Yu Xiaogang say this, a calculating look flashed across Flender's shoe-last-like face.
He walked slowly up to Chao Tianxiang, leaned close to her ear, and took a deep breath of the aged scent emanating from her...
Tear—
Ninety-nine percent! A rare treasure!
Flender felt like he had taken a top-tier, full-lung breath. Then, in a voice only they could hear, he said, "Big Sister Chao, you must have seen the talent of our academy's students, right?"
"Let me give you a hint here: several of them have very unusual backgrounds."
"If there are things where one wishes to forge a good relationship, it must be done early. Wouldn't you agree?"
As the Snake Granny who once forged a formidable reputation on the Douluo Continent, Chao Tianxiang's eyes were naturally sharp. She quickly locked onto the symbol of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect on Ning Rongrong's body, as well as the characteristics of Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing.
"Flender, I understand without your suggestion. However, this matter is too significant. I need to return and discuss it with my old man first."
Upon hearing this, Flender expressed understanding; after all, this was a major event.
Seeing this, Chao Tianxiang did not press the unpleasant matter regarding the Phoenix-Tailed Cockscomb Snake. She turned and left with Meng Yiran.
...
Meanwhile, after Jiang Li returned to Heaven Dou City, the Broken, Swift, and Control Clan branches grandly relocated their clan territories into the residence of the Strength Clan in Heaven Dou City.
Such a large movement naturally could not be concealed from everyone.
Almost instantly, the leaders of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the Spirit Hall, and other major powers all received intelligence reports sent by their subordinates.
No matter what, the Clan Chiefs of the Single-Attribute Four Great Clans were four genuine Soul Douluos. Coupled with the many Soul Masters under them, even without a Titled Douluo truly anchoring them, they still constituted a force that could not be ignored.
Naturally, countless ill-intentioned gazes were fixed upon them.
...
Spirit City, The Pope's Palace.
A stunningly beautiful young woman, dressed in lavish robes, wearing a Nine-Bend Purple Gold Crown, and possessing a head of smooth, purple long hair, stared at the message from Heaven Dou City in her hand, her beautiful brows deeply furrowed.
Her gaze swept over her nearly perfect countenance—a gift from the Creator.
Her fair skin complemented her curvaceous figure, and her long legs were captivating.
Her purple long hair lay lazily draped over her shoulders. As her strands shifted, large expanses of snow-white skin alternately appeared and disappeared—this tantalizing ambiguity was the source of her ultimate charm.
Now, coupled with the Aura of a superior who kept others at a distance, she possessed a unique allure.
"Heh heh, truly a waste. Such a massive commotion is happening right under his nose, and he hasn't noticed anything?"
"Yue Guan, relay my order. Tell that waste to go and probe those four families for this seat."
"If they are unwilling to pledge allegiance to the Spirit Hall, then this seat will regard their current movements as a precursor to the Clear Sky Sect attempting to re-emerge. Their only path will be destruction!"
...
"Yes! Your Holiness, the Pope!"
Below, a somewhat effeminate voice sounded.
