Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 213 The Shrek Rescue Team Arrives, Showing Their Faces and Displaying Their Power

"Sister Muxue, we've arrived in Mingdu. It's really different from our Tiandou City. It's huge!"

Several miles outside the gates of Mingdu City, a group of Soul Masters arrived on clouds. Among them was a stunningly beautiful girl dressed in a pale yellow outfit, chatting and laughing with her aloof companion.

"Vina, you are a princess of a nation. You must not embarrass our Heavenly Soul Empire later."

Mu Xue was dressed in a white outfit, and her temperament was even better than Vina's. She also seemed more experienced in her speech.

Vina made a "shush" gesture and whispered, "We're here to learn from the royal family and the seniors of the Body Sect. As long as you don't say anything, who will know I'm the Heavenly Soul Princess?"

"Moreover... Shrek Academy was defeated by the experts of the Sun Moon Empire, which frightened many of us. Father said that we must start paying attention to the power and development of soul tools from now on."

"Mingdu is the capital of the Sun and Moon Empire. We cannot miss this opportunity to observe it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lang Ya, the Soul Douluo of the Body Sect, turned his head and whispered:

"That's right. I personally witnessed a large number of Shrek's Title Douluos die at the hands of a terrifying Soul Master. Our Body Sect can no longer view Soul Tools with outdated perspectives."

As he spoke, Lang Ya looked at Huo Yuhao, who was being carried by him, and smiled, "Yuhao, what do you think? You're a level two Soul Master, what do you think is special about this Mingdu?"

Huo Yuhao touched his hair and shook his head, saying, "Teacher, the architecture of Mingdu is too illogical. There are no city walls. My eyesight is limited, so I can't see it for the time being."

Lang Ya nodded slightly: "Don't be discouraged. You are still young. Our Body Sect doesn't have any Soul Master experts, but the royal family has an eighth-level master and several seventh-level masters in charge."

"When you get back this time, go to the royal family and learn from the master. The conditions there may not be as good as Shrek Academy, but they're not much worse."

Huo Yuhao gave a soft "Mmm," and said, "Thank you, teacher."

"We're all from the same sect, there's no need for thanks." Lang Ya waved his hand casually. Their Body Sect always shared everything they knew with their own people.

After Huo Yuhao was brought back to the Body Sect, Du Busi assigned Lang Ya, who was also a spirit-type soul master and possessed a head martial soul, to guide Huo Yuhao's cultivation.

Under the atmosphere of "all Body Martial Souls under heaven are one family" in the Body Sect, the relationship between the master and disciple progressed rapidly.

Huo Yuhao has been thinking lately that if he hadn't met the seniors of the Holy Spirit Cult, it would have been nice to be a member of the Body Sect.

However, for some reason, I heard that those evil spirit masters also call themselves the Holy Spirit Cult. It's really strange; it tarnishes the name of "Holy Spirit."

During the darkest period of his life, Huo Yuhao received help from a master of the Holy Spirit Cult. He instinctively did not believe that the Holy Spirit Cult and those evil soul masters who committed murder, arson, and all sorts of evil deeds were the same kind of people, but he occasionally felt something was off.

As they were talking, the person in charge of the liaison from Mingdu City came forward to greet them.

Leading the way were three level-nine soul masters: Jing Hongchen, Wang Yiheng, and Liao Mengkai. Soldiers from the Terror Claw Soul Master Corps and the Evil Monarch Soul Master Corps lined up behind them, clad in armor and exuding a murderous aura.

The wheelchair-bound prince, Xu Tianran, stood alongside the three, a calm smile on his face, though a fierce glint occasionally flashed in his eyes.

He didn't particularly enjoy dealing with Shrek Academy and the people from the three great empires, but the commotion in the city made him even more uncomfortable.

The leaders of the Shrek rescue team were naturally Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er. Yan Shaozhe forced out an awkward smile and pretended to be friendly with Jing Hongchen.

"Master Mingde, it's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't expect your country to value us so much, that you would personally lead the team."

The man before him had captured his wife and killed Shi Yang. Yan Shaozhe had long regarded him as an irreconcilable enemy. Now, having to suppress his anger upon meeting him, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Jing Hongchen, seemingly unaware that the other party intended to devour him whole, narrowed his eyes into slits with a chuckle and said:
"I've heard of Shrek's Phoenix Douluo's reputation for a long time, and seeing him today, hehe... he truly lives up to his name."

Xian Lin'er sensed the disdain in the other person's voice and said coldly, "What do you mean by this? Are you mocking us?"

Jing Hongchen's smile remained unchanged, and he even looked somewhat naive: "No, no, no, you've misunderstood."

"I didn't mean to mock you, I was just stating a fact."

“You call me Dean, and you are on par with me. But if you call me Hall Master, then strictly speaking, a Super Douluo of your strength is not qualified to deal with me. Only someone of Xuanzi’s level is qualified.”

In short, in my eyes, you are all worthless wretch.

Upon hearing this, a Guardian Douluo from the Heavenly Soul Empire, who had graduated from Shrek Academy's inner court, couldn't help but step forward and challenge him:

"Dean Yan's status is on par with the emperors of the three great empires. Your Sun Moon Empire's emperor is on par with the emperors of our three great empires, yet you are merely a duke. You have to bow down to the Sun Moon Emperor. What right do you have to speak disrespectfully to Dean Yan?"

As soon as the words fell, the three level-nine soul masters simultaneously cast surprised glances at the Guardian Douluo, realizing that they had underestimated Shrek Academy's influence in the three great empires.

This student isn't just nostalgic for his alma mater; he's practically a loyal dog!

If the Dean can be on par with the emperors of the three great empires, then aren't all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion like retired emperors?

And it's one thing to say these things in private, but you actually said them in public?
Jing Hongchen glanced behind the Guardian Douluo and revealed a strange smile:
"If I'm not mistaken, is Prince Xueyu of the Heavenly Soul Empire among you on this trip? Does he have no objection to what you're saying?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a well-dressed middle-aged man in the crowd looked momentarily pale, but quickly regained his composure.

Jing Hongchen continued to laugh, but his expression suddenly turned cold, and he flicked his sleeve, saying:

"Let's not talk about empty words when it comes to strength. I'm not looking down on you. With you and those two deans, I won't have to put in too much effort."

"Get this straight! You've come to us begging for the release of your people, not the other way around. Curb your arrogance, or I won't hesitate to teach you how to humble yourself! This is Mingdu!" "You—!" The Guardian Douluo's face turned cold.

Liao Mengkai and Wang Yiheng gave a light snort, their auras bursting forth. The thousand elite soldiers of the two great guardians of the nation immediately stood ready, and the aura they exuded made the super Douluo in Shrek Academy and the rescue teams of the three great empires feel a faint threat.

"Alright, alright, we're here to discuss important matters, not to argue. Master Mingde, how about we both take a step back?"

Prince Xueyu stepped forward to smooth things over, suppressing the Guardian Douluo, whose soul was in the heavens but whose heart was in history.

Jing Hongchen's expression softened slightly: "Alright, our country is about to hold a grand event, so please join us in watching."

"Oh? May I ask what grand event it is?"

Liao Mengkai smiled and said, "Our Sun Moon Royal Soul Master team won the championship with thunderous force. This is the first time in the history of our country. His Majesty is overjoyed and wants to confer titles upon the meritorious officials."

As soon as the words fell, Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er and the others' faces darkened. Even Prince Xueyu didn't know how to respond and could only chuckle awkwardly.

Behind them, Huo Yuhao sighed softly, while Vina and Muxue looked on with curiosity.

It's a good thing that Di'ao Academy got third place in this competition, but those geniuses didn't say a word after returning home, and refused to mention the experts from Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

I wonder what their strength is, and how they compare to Long Aotian and the others.

……

Outside the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, the area was bustling with activity and traffic.

When Shrek and the Three Kingdoms rescue team arrived at a high-rise building with excellent views, they heard loud cannon salutes ringing out all around.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy covers an area comparable to a medium-sized city, and is directly connected to the main road of Mingdu City.

Outside the imposing school gate, two rows of soldiers stood, their attire different from the two guardians of the nation, yet their imposing presence was even greater.

Prince Xueyu examined it closely and asked in confusion, "Could this be the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Legion, the head of your country's five great guardians?"

Jing Hongchen smiled and nodded: "Your Highness has a good eye, indeed."

"It seems your country truly values ​​this success."

"There's no other way. We finally won a championship, and the people of our country are so enthusiastic that His Majesty has no choice but to go with the flow and share the joy with them," Jing Hongchen said cheerfully.

Yan Shaozhe and the other Shrek Academy members looked extremely displeased. The other party had sent them here clearly to thoroughly humiliate Shrek Academy. What was so great about winning a championship once? Shrek Academy had been the champion for a full ten thousand years!

Huo Yuhao followed the crowd, enjoying the spectacle without showing any unusual emotions.

He was a scapegoat of Shrek Academy, and all his emotions had vanished. So, seeing Shrek Academy being humiliated a second time gave him a strange sense of satisfaction.

What kind of "number one academy in the world" is it? It's nothing but bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong.

Vina and Muxue stood in the crowd, their faces thoughtful.

They weren't Shrek Academy members, so naturally they wouldn't empathize. If Di'ao Academy or some other academy won the championship, they would definitely celebrate with the whole nation.

But the Sun Moon Empire's actions clearly seem to be a deliberate attempt to humiliate Shrek Academy. Is it really just a coincidence?

Just then, the thunderous sound of drums suddenly rang out, and a voice proclaiming "The auspicious time has arrived" echoed throughout the entire arena. Then, a hundred white-clad iron cavalrymen suddenly emerged from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, each one handsome and with an extraordinary bearing.

They rode out, each carrying their own ceremonial regalia, their hooves thundering, and layers of golden clouds descended from the sky, landing on the figures they were surrounded by.

"They're here! The heroes of our Sun and Moon Empire have come out!" Someone shouted from the crowd below, and the citizens of Mingdu who had come early to watch the excitement erupted in a thunderous roar, shoulder to shoulder, craning their necks to look.

Ma Rulong, Lin Xi, and others, dressed in viscount and baron formal attire, led the way on horseback, occasionally greeting the surrounding crowd, eliciting shouts and screams from the young men and women.

After the seven people left, they saw the golden clouds in the sky change, day turned into night, and a boundless bright moon slowly rose into the sky, with silver ribbons falling to the earth, making the entire Ming capital city clearly visible.

Jing Hongchen smiled smugly. This was a masterpiece they had put a lot of effort into, all to show off their uniqueness.

"Look, that's Marquis Yue! Just as the rumors say, he's young, gentle, and has a face like jade!"

Someone shouted and pointed outside, and as soon as the shout fell, countless eyes were cast in that direction.

Then came a gasp of surprise.

The white-clad iron-clad cavalry dismounted, surrounding the seven reserve team members like stars around the moon; more accurately, they surrounded the figure in a moon-white robe who stood atop the Silver Moon Wolf King.

On the back of the strong, tall silver wolf, Xu Tianxi stood with his hands behind his back, facing the wind. His body was straight and firm, his clothes fluttering in the wind, and a few strands of hair dancing in the air, adding to his elegant and unrestrained air.

Under the bright moonlight, his bright eyes shone with a warm silver light. He stood tall and straight, his gaze steady. His handsome face occasionally revealed a hint of murderous intent, and his lips were tightly pursed, giving him a slightly aloof appearance.

"Is this... that person?"

After recognizing Xu Tianxi's face, a murmur arose among the Shrek rescue team, their gazes varying.
