Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 273 The Evil Soul Master Attacks

Soon, the dark clouds transformed into the shape of a tiger's head, and a powerful, oppressive aura emanated from them.

Yan Shaozhe stopped, shielding all the Shrek students behind him, and looked at Wu Yun with a solemn expression: "Zhang Peng? You're still alive? I thought you were long dead."

"Hahaha, Yan Shaozhe, you're overthinking it. I'm not that easy to kill. But, after all these years, your mouth is still as foul as ever. What, do you want me dead so badly?" Zhang Peng's voice, like rolling thunder, came from the dark clouds.

Yan Shaozhe said coldly, "That's natural. After all, the infamous Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng is a wicked person. Since you have appeared in front of me at this time, it means that you are going to do evil again. Your teacher is kind and spared your life, but now you have only caused trouble."

As soon as these words were spoken, dark clouds surged, and then an old man in black appeared, his chilling aura spreading out, making all the Shrek students present feel slightly uncomfortable.

Zhang Peng stared at Yan Shaozhe, and after a brief silence, said, "I am naturally grateful to Elder Mu for sparing my life back then. After all, with Elder Mu's strength, he could have easily killed me."

Therefore, as long as Elder Mu is still alive, even if someone puts a knife to my throat, I would never lay a hand on anyone from Shrek Academy.

However, so many years have passed, and I haven't heard any news of Elder Mu. It's always been Xuanzi who's been active outside. Elder Mu must have been severely injured and died long ago in his battle with Du Bisi. Yet your Shrek Academy has kept this news a secret all this time. Your method of keeping his death a secret is truly impressive.”

Yan Shaozhe narrowed his eyes slightly, without offering much explanation. After all, although Elder Mu was still alive, his physical condition was extremely poor, and there was a risk of death if he were to make a move. That was why Elder Mu, the renowned Dragon God Douluo, had disappeared from the Douluo Continent for many years.

Seeing that Yan Shaozhe did not respond, Zhang Peng sighed: "Yan Shaozhe, I am here to stop you today because I am following orders. How many of you will survive depends on luck."

"Of course, don't worry, I won't kill you. After all, you are Elder Mu's student. Once things have settled down, I will personally go to Elder Mu's grave to apologize."

Suddenly, an angry female voice came from mid-air: "Zhang Peng, Elder Mu spared your life back then, but now you maliciously speculate whether Elder Mu is dead and even want to attack the people of Shrek Academy. Since that's the case, I will kill you with my own hands today."

In an instant, a dragon's roar resounded, followed by a streak of azure light that pressed down on Zhang Peng like a surging tide, unstoppable.

Zhang Peng was somewhat surprised. He waved his hands, and a large amount of black light floated up, instantly transforming into a barrier that blocked the cyan light. For a moment, the light and flames surged. He said, "Martial God Douluo Xian Lin'er, I didn't expect you to come too. Even though you have already broken up with Yan Shaozhe, Shrek Academy still arranged for you to take action together. It seems that Shrek Academy attaches great importance to this group of students."

"Enough nonsense, today is your death day." Xian Lin'er was immediately furious. She did have a relationship with Yan Shaozhe back then, but Yan Shaozhe was flirting with other women during their relationship, which undoubtedly made Xian Lin'er very unhappy.

So, in order to spite Yan Shaozhe, she chose to be with Qian Duoduo. Even though she and Qian Duoduo were already married, they were only husband and wife in name, not in reality.

"Haha, it seems you still have some lingering feelings for that past relationship. However, Yan Shaozhe, that hypocrite, is not worth the esteemed Martial God Douluo's concern for so long." Zhang Peng smiled as he said these words, merely to influence Xian Lin'er's emotions and create an advantage during the battle.

Xian Lin'er, her face grim, charged towards Zhang Peng. A flash of azure dragon light appeared behind her, followed by a resounding dragon roar. Then, scorching azure flames erupted from her, sweeping towards Zhang Peng. Zhang Peng was not to be outdone. His martial soul was the Scorpion Tiger, a variant of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, naturally extremely powerful. He let out a tiger's roar, unleashing a torrent of black light that pushed aside the azure flames. Almost instantly, he transformed into a gigantic black tiger.

A pair of dark purple eyes revealed a murderous intent.

Behind it, there was a long scorpion tail, where dark clouds condensed.

He let out a low roar, flicked his scorpion tail, and streaks of dark light condensed into fine needles, attacking Xian Lin'er. This was a powerful soul skill he had mastered: Scorpion Tail Needles. Any life struck by the Scorpion Tail Needles would basically be poisoned.

Xian Lin'er was not to be outdone. As an elder of the Sea God Pavilion, her strength was beyond doubt. She immediately took out a spear of the eighth-level soul tool level, let out a loud dragon roar, and a phantom of a blue flame dragon appeared behind her. Her figure suddenly became a few sizes larger, and her aura was even more powerful than before.

After years of research by Shrek Academy, it was discovered that once a Soul Master reaches the Super Douluo level, they can use their Martial Soul True Body while maintaining their human form. This combat method is called True Body Descent.

Compared to fighting in her beast form, Xianlin'er is actually more skilled at fighting in her human form, so she naturally adopted the method of descending into her true form to fight.
Then, a large amount of cyan flames condensed on the spear, and the temperature of the air rose. She wielded the spear so tightly that it was impenetrable. The scorpion stingers struck the spear, producing a clanging sound. All the scorpion stingers were shattered by Xian Lin'er. Then, she instantly appeared in front of Scorpion Tiger Douluo and began to fight him.

"Dean Yan, will Dean Xian win?" Ye Xiaosheng asked with some concern.

"You should have faith in her. After all, Lin'er's title is Martial God. Countless people have been defeated by Lin'er back then. Although Scorpion Tiger Douluo is also very powerful, I believe in Lin'er." Yan Shaozhe said with a faint smile.

Suddenly, a chilling aura filled the surroundings. Yan Shaozhe, with his keen senses, immediately emitted a white light from his body, dispelling the chilling aura in an instant.

"Who's there? Sneaking around like that, come out now." As the Phoenix Douluo, Yan Shaozhe naturally has a certain degree of restraint against evil soul masters. Although it is not as strong as the Holy Angel's suppression of evil soul masters, he can still gain a certain advantage in battles against evil soul masters.

"Dean Yan's perception is truly keen," an aged voice rang out.

"Yes, we almost killed these Shrek students, but it looks like we'll have to fight you again." A hoarse voice rang out.

As soon as he finished speaking, two elderly men who looked to be around seventy years old appeared around the Shrek exchange students. They each had nine spirit rings under their feet and exuded a powerful aura.

The two are Wanhun Douluo and Zange Douluo, both elders of the Holy Spirit Cult and evil soul masters at the Title Douluo level.

"Are you Zhang Peng's backup plan?" Yan Shaozhe sensed that the situation was not good. Although he trusted Xian Lin'er's strength, he knew that Xian Lin'er would not be able to defeat Scorpion Tiger Douluo in a short time.
