Chapter 114 Current Situation of Sunset City

At 8 o'clock in the morning, in Shrek Square, all the sixth grade students stood in the square. They were all wearing the black school uniforms of the sixth grade, standing upright and serious. The lower grade students passing by looked at them curiously from time to time.

"Wow, Beibei, what are the seniors going to do?" Tang Ya asked with a smile. Ever since her problem with the blue silver grass was solved, she always had a bright smile on her face.

"I heard from Xu Sanshi that the sixth grade will have the graduation examination. This should be the preparation for the examination!" Beibei guessed.

"Hey, look." Tang Ya pointed at the handsome young man in black clothes and blue hair in the middle of the first row. When she saw that young man, it seemed that the light of everyone around them dimmed.

"It must be Senior Mu Ran, right? He is going to take the graduation exam, and I don't know if it's dangerous."

Bei Bei rubbed Tang Ya's long hair and said gently, "Don't worry, Senior Mu Ran is so strong. It's just the graduation test of the outer school. It won't be difficult for him."

"That's right. Then when they come back from the exam, let's go find Senior Mu Ran. I want to thank him in person."

"Of course, Teacher Xiaoya, let's go quickly, we're going to be late for class."

Mu Ran did not notice the two boys and girls standing at the edge of Shrek Square, so he did not know that the people from Tang Sect had come to Shrek Academy to study.

Dean Yan Shaozhe stood at the front and said in a deep voice: "Children, what you are about to participate in cannot be called a graduation examination, but a battle, a battle of life and death. The situation over at Sunset Forest is not good. You will know how bad it is when you get there. Your class teacher has already explained everything that needs to be said, so I will not be sentimental anymore. Without further ado, tell me, can you complete the task?"

"Yes!" The resounding voice echoed throughout the Shrek Square. Even Tang Ya and Bei Bei, who had already entered the classroom for class, heard it.

"Let's all go!"

It would take three days to rush to Sunset Forest at the speed of a four-ring soul sect. But they now have a large number of people. If they rush forward with all their strength, some of the fourth-ring auxiliary soul masters will not be able to survive.

In order to arrive as quickly as possible, Elder Xuan and several inner court elders took them back to the academy after a day's journey. Then they rested for half a day and then headed to the Sunset Forest on foot.

Two days later, the travel-laden group finally arrived at Sunset City, the city closest to Sunset Forest.

On the walls of Sunset City, there stood rows of soldiers holding spears, their eyes fixed on the people outside the city gate.

"Who is coming?"

Xuan Mo stepped forward, showed a dark green token, and said loudly: "Shrek Academy."

Yes, Xuan Mo is here too. He stayed in the academy after graduating from the inner academy and is the person in charge sent by the academy to connect with the two empires. Mu Ran was also appointed as the captain of this mission by Dean Yan Shaozhe.

"Squeak." The heavy city gate slowly opened and the Shrek people entered.

A middle-aged man in armor stood at the city gate, and behind him stood two ordinary soldiers.

The man saluted the Shrek students in a standard military salute. "Thank you very much for coming, Shrek students. I am Captain Chen Yao of the Southeast Army of the Sky Soul Empire."

Everyone at Shrek returned the greetings. Xuan Mo shook hands with Chen Yao. "Hello, Captain Chen Yao. I am the person in charge of the handover between Shrek Academy and the Empire. My name is Xuan Mo."

Captain Chen Yao nodded and continued, "We are about to hold a strategic meeting. You Shrek will also have to send people to participate. I will ask the soldiers to arrange for the rest of the people to rest in the tents. If nothing unexpected happens, the battle will start in the afternoon."

"Mu Ran and I will just go to the meeting."

Only then did Captain Chen Yao notice the brilliant young man standing next to Xuan Mo, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's true that heroes come from young, each generation becomes stronger than the last."

This was the truth in Chen Yao's heart. He simply couldn't tell how deep Xuan Mo was. As for Mu Ran, he couldn't tell how deep he was either.

Xuan Mo could understand that, as all the students in the inner courtyard of Shrek were elites. But Mu Ran was only a sixth-year student in the outer courtyard, and he was only a fourth-ring soul master anyway! It was strange that he, a fifth-ring soul master, could not see through her depth.

The crowd walked towards the city. On both sides of the road were injured civilians, crying bitterly. The houses on both sides of the street were severely damaged. From the traces, it was obvious that it was the work of soul beasts. There was a porridge shop on each street, providing free porridge to the suffering civilians who had lost their loved ones and homes. From time to time, doctors carrying medicine boxes passed by. These doctors were just ordinary people, so most of the injured civilians were not cured.

Captain Chen Yao whispered: "A long time ago, Sunset City was a very prosperous city. Most of the people coming and going were soul masters who went to Sunset Forest to hunt soul beasts. However, since the fog of Sunset Forest prohibited humans from entering, Sunset City has gradually declined. , but there are still people in Sunset City. The fog in Sunset Forest gradually faded some time ago, and you can see the forest about meters inside. However, people living in Sunset City all know the dangers in the forest, so No one went to check. But suddenly one day a group of spirit beasts ran out of the forest. They directly broke through the east city gate and entered the city to massacre and attack. These houses were damaged by them, and the people were also injured by these spirit beasts."

"There are not many soul masters in Sunset City, and they are not strong. They fought desperately against the attacks of soul beasts, and the Lord of Sunset City died in the line of duty. Most of the soul masters who fought desperately died in the battle, and only a few survived. After those hateful soul beasts carried out a round of crazy slaughter, they seemed to wake up and returned to the Sunset Forest. Not only Sunset City was attacked, but Yuhui City of the Douling Empire, which is not far from here, was also attacked by soul beasts, but the losses were relatively small."

"After receiving the news, some officers from our Southeast Army Corps and the Southeast Army from the Douling Empire who are closest to here all came to the garrison in Sunset City. So later you Shrek students will be divided into about fifty people to go to Afterglow City. , cooperate with the army of Dou Ling Empire to resist the beast tide. The beast tide there is not particularly serious, the most serious one is Sunset City."

Captain Chen Yao spoke for a long time, his tone was sad. The Shrek students felt heavy in their hearts when they saw the desolate scene before them and heard the sad words.

Mu Ran lowered his head and remained silent. He was thinking about what was going on with these soul beasts. Humans had not hunted soul beasts in the Sunset Forest for so long, so why would the soul beasts there attack humans for no reason? There was something fishy about this matter.

In addition to this, Mu Ran also had some minor psychological barriers. He couldn't kill these soul beasts. He thought that these soul beasts' attack on humans was not instinctive behavior, and there must be something wrong. In addition, he himself was also a soul beast, and it was really difficult for him to kill his own kind so cruelly and stop killing with killing.

Soon they arrived at the southeastern army's garrison, which was very close to the east city gate facing the sunset forest.

The two soldiers behind Captain Chen Yao took the rest of the Shrek people to rest, while Xuan Mo and Mu Ran were brought by Chen Yao to the largest tent in the entire garrison.

The soldier guarding the tent saluted towards Chen Yao and said, "Go in and inform them that Shrek Academy has arrived."

"Yes, Captain." The soldier turned around and entered the tent. He came out after a while and let the three people in.

There was a long table in the middle of the tent, but no one was sitting on either side. There was only an old man standing in front of the table in the huge tent.

The old man had a sad face, but he rarely smiled when he saw the three people coming in.

"I received news two days ago that Shrek Academy was coming. I finally waited for you guys! Come and sit down."

The old man asked Xuan Mo and Mu Ran to sit down, and Chen Yao bowed and left the tent.

"Haha, don't be nervous. Although I'm a general, I don't like those red tapes. Just be casual here. Don't be so restrained."

The old man was indeed quite casual, not even wearing a military uniform in the barracks.
