Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, I will never die in a battlefield.

Chapter 58 Tang San: Shrek Academy? Then it's alright.

In the blink of an eye, almost a month has passed.

At the Shrek City gate, two short figures wearing cloaks arrived at the gate with the crowd.

"Name?" the soldier at the door began his routine inquiry.

"My name is Tang San, and this is my younger brother, Xiao Wu."

One of the shorter figures spoke up, and the soldier paused, looking at Tang San and Xiao Wu, whom he was leading, with some surprise. He said softly:

"I didn't expect there to be someone with the same name as that person from ten thousand years ago. Interesting. Children, what brings you here?"

"Making a living."

"Alright, you can go in now." The soldier didn't make things too difficult for Tang San and his companion.

Of course, the main reason is that you can tell from their tattered clothes that there's not much to gain.

They're just two little beggars; aside from their unusual names, there's nothing to squeeze out of them.

Upon entering Shrek City, Xiao Wu couldn't help but exclaim, "It's huge!"

As the economic exchange center of the three major empires in the original Douluo Continent, Shrek City is exceptionally large in scale, and in terms of prosperity alone, it even surpasses the capitals of the three major empires.

"That's natural."

A hint of pride appeared on Tang San's face.

Ten thousand years ago, he led Shrek Academy to its peak! It can be said that the current prosperity of Shrek City owes a great deal to him! And a significant one at that!

Holding Xiao Wu's hand, Tang San began to search for a place for the two of them to live.

He naturally passed the first test of the Sea God with ease.

Just over a month ago, Tang San carefully located the dozen or so mission targets based on the markings attached to the Divine Trial.

However, through observation, it was discovered that these dozen or so people were basically Soul Masters, which made Tang San realize that it was basically impossible to defeat them head-on, and he could only outsmart them.

Therefore, Tang San directly poisoned the well water they used for drinking.

Although the Duke's mansion was left behind by his brother Mu Bai, after thinking it over, Tang San concluded that since these dozen or so people belonging to the Duke's mansion could be marked by the divine test, the Duke's mansion must have been rotten. Therefore, poisoning them was a righteous act!

Tang San has a clear conscience!

In order to ensure that those targets were 100% killed, Tang San naturally used a slow-acting poison that could not be detected.

After those people had been sufficiently poisoned, he added an even more potent poison to their food separately. Sure enough, he administered the poison that morning, and Tang San completed his divine test that very evening.

All I can say is, he's truly worthy of the name!

As for those who were killed along with the poison, it can only be said that they deserved to die. After all, snakes and rats are in the same den. If someone can be marked as a wicked person by the divine examination, how could the others be good people?

He's doing this to rid the people of a scourge!

Tang San touched the 20,000 gold soul coins he had received from the eldest son of the Duke's mansion and a smile appeared on his face.

Besides, I even saved those people; they should be thanking me!

A few hours later, Tang San brought Xiao Wu to the rental place and rented a small house for 500 gold soul coins a year. With the waiter seeing them off, the two went to the door to prepare to leave.

Suddenly, Tang San saw an extremely long queue in front of a shop not far away, with more than a dozen figures dressed in Shrek Academy law enforcement uniforms maintaining order.

"Why are there so many people there?"

The waiter paused for a moment, turned his head to look, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, this, the guest may have just come to Shrek City and does not know the specific situation."

"This is the kind of guest. That place is the headquarters of the 'Spirit Pagoda' organization. Their main business is selling 'artificial spirit rings.'"

"An artificial spirit ring?"

Tang San felt like he had heard an unfamiliar word.

Can spirit rings be artificially created?

"Yes, the master of the Spirit Pagoda is Master Tianmeng, the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy. This master is said to be an eight-ring Soul Douluo and also an eighth-level Soul Master."

"And this 'artificial spirit ring' is his latest work, which he just released about half a month ago!"

"Furthermore, this master has decided to provide the first soul ring to all soul masters who have reached level ten for free!"

"In addition to these, the Spirit Pagoda even offers free Martial Soul Awakening services, Martial Soul Development consultations, future career planning, and many other services!"

Tang San was terrified upon hearing this, but at the same time, he inexplicably began to be on guard.

He saw the shadow of the Spirit Hall in this organization called "Spirit Pagoda"!

But according to the waiter, the master of this "Spirit Pagoda" is also the vice dean of the Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department, which means he is one of Shrek's people.

Tang San began to ponder, and then he came to a conclusion.

There shouldn't be any problems with this spirit transmission tower.

After all, how could there be bad guys in his Shrek Academy?!

After thinking for a moment, Tang San asked again:

"Are the spirit rings sold at this 'Spirit Pagoda' safe? Are there any problems?"

"You can rest assured about this guest. The Spirit Pagoda is backed by Shrek Academy, so there are absolutely no problems. There haven't been any disputes in the past two weeks."

"How is there any difference between soul skills formed by these 'artificial soul rings' and those obtained by hunting soul beasts normally?"

"There are still some differences. According to the information given by the Spirit Pagoda, the soul skills obtained by absorbing the artificial soul ring will be closely related to one's own thoughts, martial soul, and personality."

"For example, if someone has a fire-attribute martial soul and likes direct combat, and hopes to obtain a powerful offensive soul skill when absorbing a soul ring, then what they will eventually obtain is most likely a direct, aggressive soul skill."

The waiter explained, while Tang San's expression gradually became more and more interesting.

Why did he feel that this "artificial spirit ring" was so similar to the "divinely bestowed spirit ring" he received after causing the first trial of the Sea God?

Hesitating for a moment, Tang San asked again, "What about the lifespan of this 'artificial spirit ring'? What is it like?"

According to the Spirit Pagoda, their lowest level is a two-hundred-year soul ring, followed by three-hundred-year, four-hundred-year, five-hundred-year, and so on.

"After reaching the millennium level, it increases by 1,200 years, 1,400 years, and so on, every 200 years. After reaching the 10,000-year level, it increases by 1,000 years."

"However, it is said that the current limit is the 99,999-year level of spirit rings, and there are no higher levels."

The waiter was very talkative, though it's possible he was using chatting with customers as a way to slack off.

After hearing the waiter's words, Tang San breathed a slight sigh of relief. It seemed that his unused "God-given Soul Ring" was still slightly superior.

After absorbing his own "divinely bestowed soul ring", its lifespan can directly reach the limit that his body can withstand!

Isn't this better than this "artificial spirit ring"? Tang San regained some balance.

Just as they were about to leave, the waiter suddenly spoke again:

"Guest, since we get along well, let me give you a heads-up: if you're planning to break through your cultivation level in terms of spirit rings, it's best not to go to the Star Dou Great Forest recently."
