Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 123 Expelling Elder Xuan, Never to Be Hired Again
It wasn't until two weeks later!
Elder Xuan came over and asked Ma Xiaotao to get acquainted with the substitute members of the Shrek Seven Devils.

The three of them then finished their cultivation and went outside together.

With nothing else to do, Wu Ming went over to take a look.

Dugu Han also wanted to find He Caitou to tell him some things, so he followed him there.

Dai Yueheng and others, along with Huo Yuhao and other substitute members of the Shrek Seven Devils, had been waiting in the Soul Battle Zone for quite some time!
Upon seeing Elder Xuan leading Dugu Han and the other two over, they all lined up in formation.

Ling Luochen smiled at Dugu Han and the other two.

It's worth mentioning that, despite Dugu Han's appearance, her relationship with Ma Xiaotao, while not very good, didn't become too strained.

He Caitou lowered his head with a complicated expression as he watched Dugu Han arrive.

After Dugu Han followed Elder Xuan over, he saw He Caitou avoiding his gaze and sighed.

He then said to Elder Xuan, "Elder Xuan, I have something to discuss with He Caitou."

Upon hearing this, He Caitou trembled.

Elder Xuan glanced at He Caitou and agreed, saying, "Go ahead, but don't take too long. You'll need to do some practice when you get back."

"it is good!"

He Caitou walked out with his head down.

Ma Xiaotao and Wu Ming watched with curiosity as Dugu Han and He Caitou walked away.

As far as they knew, Dugu Han had been in the inner courtyard since entering the school and rarely went to the outer courtyard, let alone the Soul Guidance Academy. How could he know people from the Soul Guidance Academy?

Wang Dong also asked in confusion, "Do they know each other?"

"We know each other!"

Huo Yuhao watched Dugu Han and He Caitou leave together and nodded.

He had already heard He Caitou tell him about his identity and knew that He Caitou and Dugu Han were cousins.

"Alright, stop watching, everyone!"

At this moment, Elder Xuan clapped his hands, signaling everyone to look away, and said, "The new Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament will begin in ten days. I've gathered you all together today so you can get to know each other. Now, please introduce yourselves, starting with the reserve team."

"My name is Beibei!"

Beibei was the first to step forward and introduce herself: "Fifth year of the outer academy, martial soul Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus, level 42 power attack type battle soul master."

Xu Sanshi was the second to step forward: "My name is Xu Sanshi, a fifth-year student in the outer academy, my martial soul is the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield, and I am a level 43 defensive-type Battle Soul Master!"

"My name is Jiang Nannan, and I'm a fifth-year student in the Foreign Languages ​​Department..."

"My name is Xiaoxiao..."

"My name is Wang Dong..."

The students of the inner academy were increasingly shocked as they listened.

Bei Bei and the other two were in the fifth grade of the outer academy, with soul power levels of 42 or 43. This was nothing special; they had all reached this level of soul power before entering the inner academy.

But Xiao Xiao, who comes later, has twin martial souls.

Wang Dong also possesses twin martial souls, one being the Light Goddess Butterfly martial soul that has disappeared, and the other being the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul that has not appeared for thousands of years.

Huo Yuhao also possesses twin martial souls. In addition to his main martial soul, the Spirit Eye, his second martial soul is the Ice Jade Scorpion, which embodies the ultimate ice.

Three second-year students, three with twin martial souls.

"When did twin martial souls become so common?"

The inner court disciples stared in shock at Huo Yuhao and his two companions.

Wu Ming looked at them with great surprise.

"Don't look at us like that. The talent of having twin martial souls is nothing special in front of a true prodigy."

Wang Dong pursed his lips in response to the surprised looks on everyone's faces.

"Is that all the talent a twin martial soul can offer?"

Dai Yueheng couldn't help but say, "Do you know that with twin martial souls, once you cultivate to the level of Title Douluo, you can add 50,000-year spirit rings to your second martial soul? How powerful would a Title Douluo with nine spirit rings, all of which are 50,000-year spirit rings, be?"

"No amount of 50,000-year spirit rings can make up for the gap of 100,000-year spirit rings."

Wang Dong curled his lip and said, "That Dugu Han just now absorbed a 100,000-year soul ring with his fifth soul ring. The next four soul rings must also be 100,000-year soul rings. Five 100,000-year soul rings, even we with twin martial souls can't compare!"

"A hundred thousand year soul ring?"

Dai Yueheng and the others gasped for breath, completely stunned!

Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and other substitute players were also stunned.

They knew Dugu Han was very strong, and they also knew that he was already a high-level Soul King, but was a fifth Soul Ring of 100,000 years really possible?

"You...are you telling the truth?"

Ling Luochen looked at Wang Dong in disbelief and said, "Dugu Han really absorbed a 100,000-year-old soul ring for his fifth soul ring?"

"real!"

Huo Yuhao nodded with a wry smile: "Wang Dong and I witnessed it with our own eyes, and it wasn't just his fifth spirit ring, which was 100,000 years old; his third spirit ring was also a 10,000-year spirit ring that he directly absorbed!"

"A third spirit ring that lasts for ten thousand years!"

"A fifth spirit ring that lasts for 100,000 years!"

When Xu Sanshi learned about Dugu Han's spirit ring configuration for the first time, he swallowed hard in horror and turned stiffly to Bei Bei: "Um, please don't mention me joining the Tang Sect again!"

"Can I...can I leave the Tang Sect?" Xiao Xiao felt like crying.

She joined the Tang Clan without really understanding what was going on, along with Wang Dong. Only after joining did she realize that the Tang Clan's reconstruction involved Dugu Han, a potential enemy.

But it didn't mention this potential enemy; his fifth spirit ring absorbed a 100,000-year spirit ring!

Moreover, Dugu Han was able to absorb a 100,000-year soul ring with his fifth soul ring, so the next four soul rings would definitely also be 100,000-year soul rings.

A 100,000-year soul ring will inevitably produce a 100,000-year soul bone.

A titled Douluo who will possess five 100,000-year spirit rings and at least five 100,000-year spirit bones in the future, even if he can't defeat a Limit Douluo, can still overpower a Super Douluo!
How is this still playing?
"rest assured!"

"Dugu Han will not be an enemy of our Tang Clan."

Huo Yuhao smiled and comforted him.

He already knew He Caitou's identity and the relationship between Dugu Han and He Caitou.

He didn't believe that Dugu Han would suppress the sect his cousin belonged to.

"okay!"

Elder Xuan ended their discussion and gestured to Ma Xiaotao beside him, "Xiaotao, it's your turn to introduce yourselves. You go first!"

"Row!"

Ma Xiaotao walked out, her beautiful eyes sweeping over everyone, and said indifferently, "Ma Xiaotao, an inner court disciple, possesses a pure Fire Phoenix martial soul and is a level 77 Battle Soul Saint."

"Soul Saint?"

"A level 77 Soul Saint?"

Huo Yuhao and the others were stunned when they heard Ma Xiaotao's soul power level!
To participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament, one must be a Soul Master under the age of twenty.

Since Ma Xiaotao was able to participate in the competition, she must be under twenty years old.

A Soul Saint who is not yet twenty years old and has reached level seventy-seven?
Dai Yueheng and the others stared at Ma Xiaotao in shock.

They all knew that Ma Xiaotao had become a Soul Saint more than nine months ago, but there is a difference of five or six levels between a level 71 or 72 Soul Saint and a level 77 Soul Saint!

In less than ten months, he increased his soul power by five or six levels at the Soul Saint stage. Did he take some kind of elixir?

……

the other side!
Dugu Han led He Caitou out of the Soul Battle Zone and stopped in a deserted corner.

He Caitou also stopped, took a deep breath, looked up at Dugu Han and said with a wry smile, "I didn't expect that even though I've changed so much, you would still recognize me."

I recognized you the moment I saw you!

Dugu Han smiled and took out an eighth-level defensive soul tool from the Moon Goddess's Tears.

It was a golden, round soul guide bracelet from the storage soul guide ring that Xiaobai gave to the level nine soul master. It was called Venus Guardian!
"Since you've joined the Shrek Seven Devils as a substitute member, you'll definitely have to join the Shrek Supervisory Group as well."

As he spoke, Dugu Han handed the Venus Guardian to He Caitou and said with a smile, "I obtained this level eight defensive soul tool by chance. Wearing it will greatly increase your safety when carrying out surveillance missions."

Thank you!

He Caitou did not refuse and took the Venus Guardian and put it on his wrist.

He hesitated for a moment, then looked at Dugu Han and said, "Could you keep this a secret for me?"

"Will do!"

Dugu Han nodded, then sighed: "You are my cousin, your father is my uncle, and the current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire is also my uncle. I shouldn't say much about what's going on between you, let alone interfere. I hope you can understand."

"I understand!"

He Caitou expressed his understanding, saying that if he were in Dugu Han's position, he would also not take sides.

"I'm glad you understand!"

Dugu Han smiled and then reminded him, "By the way, you absolutely must not take off this level eight defensive soul tool, especially when you are carrying out a surveillance mission."

"I know!"

He Caitou glanced at the Venus Guardian on his wrist, nodded heavily, and then smiled, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to training!"

"Let's go back!"

Dugu Han watched He Caitou walk towards the Soul Battle Zone and felt relieved.

With ten days to go before the Advanced Soul Master Competition, Elder Xuan will definitely be leading a team to carry out that damned surveillance mission during these ten days.

His main concern was He Caitou's safety, since his arrival had subtly shifted the course of the world.

Huo Yuhao's soul power level has also increased significantly compared to the original story. No one knows whether this small change will harm his cousin.

However, with this level eight defensive soul tool, Dugu Han can rest assured!

As for reminding Elder Xuan, he had considered it.

But would a high-level Soul King remind a level 98 Super Douluo to pay attention to the safety of the students while leading a team on a surveillance mission?
What's the difference between this and directly urinating on Xuan Lao's face?
Afterwards, Dugu Han went to find Ning Tian.

Go out for a walk with Ning Tian, ​​then bring him back to your dorm to get to know each other better.

For the next three days, Ma Xiaotao accompanied Dai Yueheng, Huo Yuhao, and others to practice teamwork.

Dugu Han found his cultivation too slow, so he temporarily put aside his cultivation and focused on cultivating his relationship with Ning Tian.

Until three days later!
Elder Xuan is going to lead the Shrek Seven Devils, along with Huo Yuhao and other substitute members, to carry out a surveillance mission!

Dugu Han, along with Ma Xiaotao and Wu Ming, went directly to the Star Luo Empire and resumed their cultivation.

At first, Ma Xiaotao also wanted to carry out that surveillance mission, but he forcibly dragged her to the Star Luo Empire under the pretext that the three of them should cultivate together.

Three days later!
After arriving in Star Luo City, the three of them checked into a hotel provided by the Star Luo Empire for all participants in the Soul Master Competition and began cultivating together.

at the same time!

On the other side, Dai Yueheng, Huo Yuhao, and others, who were on a surveillance mission led by Elder Xuan, also encountered the Grim Reaper and suffered heavy casualties.

Furthermore, when Huo Yuhao forcibly absorbed the 100,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion King as his martial soul in the far north, Ilex also woke up at the crucial moment and helped him successfully absorb the Ice Jade Scorpion King as his martial soul. After that, he fell into a deep sleep like Tianmeng, and thus was unable to help Huo Yuhao fight against the Grim Reaper.

Ultimately, this led to the Grim Reaper capturing Huo Yuhao as a threat and throwing him off the mountain, leaving Elder Xuan unable to pursue him as he was busy rescuing Huo Yuhao, allowing Elder Xuan to escape successfully.

Elder Xuan carried the unconscious Huo Yuhao back, and his face was extremely grim when he saw the group of students who had suffered heavy casualties.

Six students from the inner courtyard!

Yao Haoxuan died on the spot; his flesh and blood were completely corroded away, and only some remains could be collected.

Chen Zifeng's right leg was blown off, and he has already lost consciousness.

A large hole exploded in Gongyang Mo's chest, and Xixi was also infected with corpse poison, her body temperature rising rapidly.

Only Dai Yueheng and Ling Luochen sustained the least injuries, but they were still bleeding from their mouths and noses, indicating serious injuries.

Apart from Huo Yuhao, who was unconscious, the outer disciples were almost unharmed.

When the Grim Reaper triggered the corpse explosion, the outer disciples were standing relatively far back. In addition, at the critical moment, He Caitou used the level-eight defensive soul tool, Venus Guardian, given to him by Dugu Han, to protect Jiang Nannan, Xiao Xiao, and the others.

Teacher Wang Yan, who was leading the team, was also among them.

He looked at the inner disciples who had suffered heavy losses, his eyes heavy, but also with a hint of relief.

Fortunately, Ma Xiaotao didn't come over.

As long as she remains safe and sound, with her advanced Soul Saint cultivation level of 77, she can still sweep aside other Soul Master teams and continue to win the championship.

"Wang Yan!"

At this moment, Elder Xuan looked at Chen Zifeng and the other two, who were covered in blood and had already fainted, and said after a moment of silence, "You take them to participate in the competition first, and I will take Dai Yueheng and the others back to Shrek Academy for treatment."

"Elder Xuan, I'm fine!"

Dai Yueheng shook his head, clutching his injured chest, and said, "The Soul Master Competition usually lasts about a month. I should be able to recover in half a month at most, and then I can continue with the later competitions."

"Me too!"

Ling Luochen was also unwilling to give up participating in this competition.

"Don't force yourself. With Xiaotao here, the championship will definitely belong to us."

After Xuan Lao finished speaking, he solemnly enveloped Chen Zifeng and the other two, along with Yao Haoxuan's corpse, with his soul power and flew towards Shrek City at full speed.

It only took them one day to return to Shrek Academy.

Upon learning the news, Elder Zhuang rushed to the Sea God Pavilion to treat the three students.

The other senior members and the four deans, Yan Shaozhe, also arrived quickly.

Looking at Chen Zifeng and the other two, whose fates were currently unknown, and then at Yao Haoxuan's corpse beside him, Old Mu clenched his withered hands into fists, his eyes filled with barely suppressed rage!

Elder Xuan stood to the side, head bowed, and spoke with shame about his responsibilities.

This time, he was much more careful leading the team, staying close behind Huo Yuhao and the others. Only after confirming that the highest cultivation level on the other side was only that of a Soul King did he step out of the cave, pick up the wine jug, and start drinking.

But who knew that someone like the Grim Reaper would exist, and that there was a soul skill like Corpse Explosion?

"So you messed up again because of drinking?"

"And that evil spirit master even managed to escape?"

Mu Lao looked at Xuan Lao with eyes full of disappointment.

"Elder Mu, I resign to take responsibility!" Elder Xuan said with shame.

"You don't need to resign!"

Elder Mu withdrew his disappointed gaze, his eyes sweeping over the faces of Elder Lin and the other elders, as well as the four deans, Yan Shaozhe, and others. Suppressing his anger, he said, "In the name of the Sea God Pavilion Master, I propose that Xuanzi be expelled from his elder position and never be rehired!"
