Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 237 Luo Rong'er

"Oh dear, Father, the family can directly help me hunt soul beasts to obtain soul rings, why do you insist on finding a soul hunting team to help me? Isn't this a waste of money?!" The girl clung to the middle-aged man's arm and pleaded.

"My dear Rong'er, this is also a kind of training for you. Your talent is unparalleled among the Soul Masters of your generation. If you become a Title Douluo, your family can't exactly help you hunt for the ninth Soul Ring," Luo Lin said.

The girl's name is Luo Rong'er, and Luo Lin is her father. Both of them have fiery red hair.

Tang Lin's martial soul is the flamingo martial soul inherited from his family, while Tang Huo Rong's martial soul has undergone a slight mutation.

To be precise, it was a benign mutation. The bloodline of the ancient divine beast Vermilion Bird appeared in her martial soul, which made her martial soul unprecedentedly powerful. As a result, the elders of the clan felt a sense of oppression when they saw her and couldn't help but want to bow down and worship her.

However, this Vermilion Bird bloodline is only a trace, and whether it can be perfectly activated in the future is still unknown.

This change quickly caught the attention of the Luo family, who soon reached a consensus to devote all their resources to Luo Rong'er and do everything they could to help her get into Shrek Academy.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Come in!"

The girl at the counter led Hu Hu's team into the room, then bowed to Luo Lin and said respectfully, "Mr. Luo, these are the Soul Hunter team who will be assisting you in this operation."

Luo Lin nodded, his gaze sweeping over the group at random, before turning to the girl behind the counter and saying, "You can go now, I'll talk to them in detail."

"Yes."

Employers usually make this kind of request, and the saleswoman was already used to it, so she quickly left the room.

Lin Chen could tell that this was a fire-attribute Soul Emperor, whose talent could at most support him to the Soul Douluo level.

"My daughter needs a 700-year-old firebird as her second soul ring, so I'll have to trouble you all," Luo Lin said to the group.

Hu Hu stepped forward, clasped his hands in a respectful gesture, and said, "Rest assured, we guarantee we will find the soul ring for your daughter!"

"Um."

Luo Lin nodded. He could tell the cultivation levels of these people: one Soul Venerable and four Great Soul Masters. With such a lineup, there was no need to worry about any mistakes. After all, they were all in this line of work and had a lot of experience dealing with Soul Beasts.

But after thinking about it, he still reminded her, "No matter what, Rong'er's safety is the most important thing. Even if we lose what we have, we must ensure Rong'er's safety."

"Yes, we will do everything we can to protect your daughter's safety."

"Um."

Luo Lin then looked at Luo Rong'er and said, "You should go with them. Your father will be waiting here for your good news."

Luo Rong'er nodded and walked towards the group of people opposite her.

Seeing that the employer was ready, Hu Hu led the group away from Luo Lin's room.

"Miss Luo, let's go." Li Xiu stepped forward and said, gesturing for them to proceed.

Although Li Xiu enjoys flirting with women, he is not a person with any wicked intentions, and Lin Chen can see that.

"Okay." Luo Rong'er nodded and followed.

Lin Chen walked silently at the back of the group, glancing at Luo Rong'er.

"This woman actually has a trace of Vermilion Bird bloodline, and her talent is quite outstanding. Perhaps she can become the second Ma Xiaotao without the evil fire," Lin Chen pondered.

After a brief moment's thought, Lin Chen pulled himself back to reality. This woman was a complete stranger to him, and there was no need to concern himself with her; completing the mission was the priority. An hour later, Hu Hu's voice came, "Brother Lin Chen, we're about to enter the forest. Stay by Miss Luo's side and protect her."

Lin Chen nodded, turned around and ran to Luo Rong'er's side.

Even Li Xiu, who is usually very talkative, didn't say anything about it. He always obeyed the captain's decisions unconditionally.

After checking their equipment again, the group entered the Soul Hunter Forest.

The Soul Hunting Forest of today is quite different from that of ten thousand years ago. Due to the development of soul tools and the decline of the Spirit Hall, the age and strength of the soul beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest have all greatly increased. For example, in the Soul Hunting Forest where Lin Chen and his group are now, the soul beast with the highest cultivation level has reached seven thousand years. This age is enough to serve as the fifth soul ring for ordinary soul masters who cannot absorb ten-thousand-year soul rings.

"The area we're going into this time isn't too deep, Miss Luo. Just stay close to us, we'll be fine," Lin Chen said to Luo Rong'er beside him.

Luo Rong'er nodded.

"According to the map, this should be the Firebird's range." After walking for another two hours, Li Xiu glanced at the map and said.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!" Hu Hu ordered.

"yes!"

Everyone possessed their martial spirits. The character "王" (king) appeared on Hu Hu's forehead. Green vines wrapped around Li Xiu, and a scepter appeared in Xing Jiang's hand. Dali's height increased by several meters, and he already looked like a giant bear.

An iron sword also appeared in Lin Chen's palm.

It bears a five-point resemblance to the Seven Kill Sword, but no one else could possibly associate it with the Seven Kill Sword.

Luo Rong'er took out a fish, sprinkled it with spices, and placed it on the ground, confidently saying, "This fish is called tilapia. Firebirds love to eat this kind of fish, and with the spices they love most, I'm sure she'll come!"

"But, Miss Luo, won't other soul beasts come over?" Hu Hu asked.

"Don't worry, other spirit beasts don't like to eat this kind of thing; it's just a unique hobby of the Firebird."

As everyone was talking, a wave of intense heat swept over them, but to Lin Chen it was no different from the heat emitted by a candle.

"They're here!"

A loud cry rang out, and when everyone looked up again, they could see the firebird flying in mid-air.

Li Xiu slapped the ground, and countless green vines rose up, heading straight for the firebird in the sky, trying to entangle it and pull it back to the ground.

The martial spirits of Hu Hu's team members are all terrestrial creatures, giving them a clear advantage in ground combat.

Upon seeing this, the firebird immediately spewed out a mouthful of flames, instantly burning all the vines that Li Xiu had sent out to ashes.

Li Xiu took a half step back, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said with a solemn expression, "My Green Vine is a plant-type soul beast, and this firebird is severely restrained by my attributes. I can't do anything about it."

Hu Hu leaped back and forth among several trees, and after a few moments, he seized the opportunity and swung his tiger claw at the firebird in the air.

But the Firebird's body was incredibly agile; with her years of experience flying in the air, Hu Hu was absolutely no match for her.

So Hu Hu missed his target and landed heavily on the ground, kicking up a lot of dust.

The firebird, suspended in the air, spat fireball after fireball at Hu Hu's team.
