Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 73 Capturing the Abyss Frost Dragon Alive
Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect!
Ning Zhiyuan personally saw Zhang Lexuan off, then stood in front of the sect, staring at the letter in his hand, speechless for a long time.

"Strive for excellence!"

An old man walked up behind Ning Zhiyuan and asked, "I heard that someone from Shrek Academy has come. Is there something you need?"

"A pillar of the younger generation has emerged!" Ning Zhiyuan handed the letter to the old man.

"The pillars of the younger generation?"

The old man took the letter with a puzzled look and began to read it.

The letter's contents were normal up to the beginning; it stated that Dugu Han had asked the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to purchase top-quality honey from across the continent.

The old man also knew about Dugu Han, the current successor of the Dugu family, and had even held him in his arms.

But a line at the end of the letter made his pupils shrink.

He has become the disciple of a Limit Douluo and is about to break through level 30 to become a Soul Master.

"I remember that the Dugu family's kid is about the same age as Xiaotian, right?" The old man looked at Ning Zhiyuan in shock.

"almost!"

Ning Zhiyuan nodded slightly and said, "If you count it up, Xiao Han is only a little over nine years old now."

"A Soul Master who is just over nine years old!" the old man murmured involuntarily.

“Cultivation speed is one aspect, but the background is even more crucial.”

Ning Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Heir of the Wannian family, nephew of the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire, and personal disciple of the Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy."

At this point, he looked at the old man and chuckled, "With the full support of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Xiao Han is undoubtedly the pillar of the younger generation."

"The elders of the sect will object."

Upon hearing that Ning Zhiyuan intended to use the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to fully support Dugu Han, the old man said worriedly, "In the past three years, because of you, the sect has been providing him with so many cultivation resources for free, which has already caused dissatisfaction among many people!"

Ning Zhiyuan took the letter back from the old man, held it up, and said, "This will shut them up."

……

Five days later!
Zhang Lexuan traveled all the way from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School back to Shrek Academy.

"Le Xuan's aura!"

Old Mu, who was sunbathing in the corridor of the freshmen dormitory building, sensed Zhang Lexuan's presence and a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes.

He thought for a moment, then transmitted his voice to Zhang Lexuan: "Come to the freshman dormitory."

Upon hearing Elder Mu's telepathic message, Zhang Lexuan, who had just entered the academy, headed straight for the freshman dormitory.

"Why are you back?"

After Zhang Lexuan arrived, Elder Mu laughed and said, "That kid shouldn't dare to bully you, right?"

"Dugu Han is about to break through to level 30, so he asked me to come back and ask Dean Yan to go to the far north ice sea to help him catch a soul beast," Zhang Lexuan explained.

"Is he about to break through level 30?"

Elder Mu looked somewhat surprised and said, "It seems my disciple has many secrets!"

However, he didn't delve too deeply into it. He looked Zhang Lexuan up and down, and seeing her current appearance, said with satisfaction, "You're much more cheerful than before."

"Have it?"

Zhang Lexuan felt a little strange; she felt no different from before!

"You can't tell from your appearance, but you've felt much less stressed inside."

Old Mu smiled and said, "This is why I asked you to go to the far north with Xiao Han. His aura is comforting, and you will naturally relax when you are by his side, which is very good for your state of mind."

When Zhang Lexuan heard Elder Mu mention Dugu Han's aura, she subconsciously recalled the strange phenomenon that Dugu Han had been attracting the attention of ten-thousand-year-old and even one-hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts ever since they entered the far north. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "It seems that as soon as Dugu Han enters the far north, he attracts the attention of ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, and after entering the core area, he attracts the attention of one-hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts even more."

"His level of life has changed, making him equivalent to a walking treasure for soul beasts and evil soul masters who are over ten thousand years old."

"Evil Soul Master?"

"Soul beasts can gain tremendous benefits from eating Xiao Han, and the same is true for evil soul masters."

"Do you have a way to solve this?" Zhang Lexuan asked with some concern.

Attracting the attention of soul beasts is not scary; at worst, Dugu Han will simply stop going to other soul beast gathering places in the future!

You can also ask someone to help you capture soul beasts if you need the required soul rings.

But evil spirit masters are different; those people appear and disappear unpredictably, and you never know when you'll encounter them.

Unless he stays in the far north or at Shrek Academy.

"Minor Cold is a change at the level of life, and I don't know much about it."

Old Mu shook his head and chuckled, "But you don't need to worry. Xiao Han and the Snow Empress have an extraordinary relationship. The Snow Empress is an elf born from ice and snow, and her life level is only lower than the Emperor Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest. She will have a way to solve this."

Zhang Lexuan was relieved to learn that Xue Di had a way to solve Dugu Han's problem.

Then she looked at Old Master Mu and hesitated.

"what happened?"

Old Master Mu chuckled and said, "Just say what you need to say!"

"Dugu Han told me... he said Bei Bei has someone she likes!"

After Zhang Lexuan voiced her long-suppressed thoughts, her expression immediately turned dejected.

Old Mu also fell silent.

He never expected that his disciple would actually tell Zhang Lexuan this directly.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, Old Mu looked at the dejected Zhang Lexuan and asked, "What do you think of this matter?"

"I don't know!" Zhang Lexuan shook her head dejectedly.

After a moment of contemplation, Elder Mu said softly, "Since you already know, I won't hide it from you anymore. I just sensed that they are currently taking a walk on the playground in the outer courtyard."

"Goodbye, Mr. Mu!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan respectfully withdrew.

After leaving the freshmen dormitory, she headed straight for the playground of the School of Foreign Languages.

I spotted a boy's back on the playground and stopped in my tracks.

Next to the boy was a girl with a ponytail.

The two walked side by side.

“Beibei, I heard Xu Sanshi say…”

The girl hesitated for a moment before saying, "He said you seem to have...one..."

"fiancée!"

Beibei spoke for the girl, and then explained, "It was my ancestor who arranged this for me. She is my senior sister in the inner courtyard. She is a very, very good person, but I have always regarded her as my own sister."

"But I heard from Xu Sanshi that your fiancée is not only gentle and beautiful, but also the number one genius of Shrek Academy. She has already broken through to the Soul Douluo level!" The girl lowered her head and felt somewhat ashamed when she mentioned Zhang Lexuan's talent.

Her talent for cultivation was worlds apart from Zhang Lexuan's.

"Damn it, Xu Sanshi, I treated you like a brother and told you these secrets, and you stabbed me in the back just to get Xiaoya to help you pursue Jiang Nannan?"

Beibei cursed Xu Sanshi inwardly, then quickly explained, "Xiaoya, I really only see Sister Lexuan as my own sister. Think about it, Sister Lexuan started taking care of me when I was three years old. What feelings could I possibly have for her?" "Who knows if you have feelings for her or not!" Xiaoya lowered her head and walked forward.

"You believe me!"

To convince Xiaoya, Beibei even raised her hand and said, "I swear, if anything I've said is a lie, may I be struck by lightning."

Zhang Lexuan watched Beibei chasing after Xiaoya's back with complicated emotions, listening to their conversation.

The vow Beibei made to Xiaoya kept echoing in her mind.

She's just my older sister!
Zhang Lexuan stood there with her lips pursed, watching Bei Bei and the other person walk side by side in silence.

Until the two walked out of the playground.

Zhang Lexuan then withdrew her gaze and silently walked towards the dean's office of the Martial Soul Academy.

Mr. Mu, who lived in the freshman dormitory, had been keeping an eye on Zhang Lexuan's situation, but could only sigh.

Choosing Zhang Lexuan to be Beibei's child bride was one of the few mistakes he ever made in his life.

……

Upon arriving at the dean's office, Zhang Lexuan raised her hand and knocked on the door.

Yan Shaozhe's voice came from inside: "Please come in!"

Zhang Lexuan pushed open the door and went inside.

"Lexuan?"

Yan Shaozhe looked at Zhang Lexuan as she walked in and asked in surprise, "Didn't you go to the far north with Xiaohan?"

"Dugu Han asked me to come back and ask you to go to the far north to capture a soul beast," Zhang Lexuan said, her mood somewhat downcast.

What's the point of capturing soul beasts?

Yan Shaozhe was a little puzzled, but he noticed Zhang Lexuan's low spirits and asked with concern, "Why do you look so unhappy? Is something wrong?"

"Nothing!"

Zhang Lexuan forced a smile, controlled her emotions, and then said, "Dugu Han is about to break through to level 30 in soul power. Because of his personal reasons, he cannot go to the far north ice sea to hunt souls himself, so he would like to ask you to go to the far north ice sea to help him catch a ten-thousand-year-old Abyss Frost Dragon to serve as his third soul ring."

"You're about to break through level 30 so quickly?"

Yan Shaozhe was quite surprised by Dugu Han's improvement in soul power, because he remembered that when Dugu Han left and said goodbye to him, he was only a level 27 Great Soul Master!

In just half a month, I'm about to break through level 30 and need to absorb a soul ring...

"and many more!"

"You just said that Xiao Han wants to use the ten-thousand-year-old Abyssal Frost Dragon as his third soul ring?"

"A third spirit ring that's been around for ten thousand years?"

Yan Shaozhe suddenly remembered that Zhang Lexuan had mentioned the ten-thousand-year-old Abyss Cold Dragon, and stood up in shock.

"That's right!"

Zhang Lexuan nodded and said, "Dugu Han said he can handle it; he's confident."

"Did he really say that?" Yan Shaozhe asked, somewhat incredulously.

Zhang Lexuan confirmed, "That's really what they said."

"unprecedented!"

"Absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring at level thirty is absolutely unprecedented!"

Yan Shaozhe took a deep breath in shock.

A single martial soul directly absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring as its third soul ring—there is no precedent in the world for this.

If Dugu Han succeeds, he will definitely be recorded in history.

Thinking of this, Yan Shaozhe could no longer hold back and found the Dean of Studies of the Martial Soul Academy. After explaining some things to him, he directly followed Zhang Lexuan to the far north ice sea.

The Arctic Ice Sea is located adjacent to the far north and is the coldest sea area in the ocean. Like the far north, it is also a forbidden area for humans, and few soul masters would set foot there.

After spending a week entering the Arctic Ice Sea, Yan Shaozhe and Zhang Lexuan flew straight to the location of the Abyss Frost Dragon, following the records in the "Abyss Frost Dragon Record of the Arctic Ice Sea".

Along the way, they encountered several Ice Sea Soul Beasts that were over 10,000 years old, or even over 50,000 years old, but they were all frightened away by Yan Shaozhe's aura as a Super Douluo.

Upon arriving at the location of the Abyssal Frost Dragon, Yan Shaozhe found a dragon that had recently broken through the ten-thousand-year age limit and easily captured it alive.

The Abyssal Frost Dragon is one of the top-tier dragon-type soul beasts. A ten-thousand-year-old Abyssal Frost Dragon is comparable to an ordinary fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast.

However, facing a Super Douluo with a top-tier martial soul, he still couldn't put up any effective resistance and was directly knocked unconscious by Yan Shaozhe.

The two then carried the unconscious Abyssal Frost Dragon and flew directly to the core area of ​​the far north.

Upon entering the far north, Zhang Lexuan immediately produced the Snow Emperor's token.

With the Snow Empress's token, Yan Shaozhe didn't need to use his Super Douluo aura to intimidate them; no soul beast dared to stop them.

Along the way, the two carried the Abyss Frost Dragon, which was more than ten feet long, and flew into the core area of ​​the far north without any scruples, finally landing in front of Xiaobai's cave.

Xiao Bai stayed at the cave entrance to protect Dugu Han.

Upon noticing the two, he stood up and stared intently at Yan Shaozhe.

"Xiao Bai, this is Dugu Han's senior brother," Zhang Lexuan introduced.

Yan Shaozhe also spoke up: "Respected Beast King, I am Xiao Han's senior brother."

Xiao Bai glanced at Yan Shaozhe, then at the unconscious Yuan Yu Hanlong beside him.

"This is a soul beast that Xiao Han asked me to capture for him in the far north of the icy sea," Yan Shaozhe explained.

Xiao Bai was relieved to hear this, but still guarded the cave entrance, preventing Yan Shaozhe from entering.

Yan Shaozhe didn't mind and just waited where he was.

Zhang Lexuan went inside and took a look.

The ice block that had sealed Dugu Han no longer emitted any cold air, and the surrounding ice elements no longer surged into his body.

"How much longer will it take for Dugu Han to come out?" Zhang Lexuan asked Xiaobai.

"It should be soon!"

Xiao Bai scratched his head, looking somewhat uncertain.

It's just a soul beast, and Zhang Lexuan's question is a bit too much for it!

"Le Xuan!"

Yan Shaozhe also noticed Dugu Han, who was frozen inside.

He frowned and called Zhang Lexuan out, asking, "How did Xiaohan get frozen?"

"Dugu Han ate some kind of rain and dew, and his martial soul evolved. It's currently..."

Zhang Lexuan explained Xiaobai's explanation to her.

But she wasn't done yet.

A deafening roar suddenly came from inside the cave.
