Douluo Continent: Reversing Yin and Yang, the Haotian Palace and the Angel Sect

Tang San stepped forward and carefully examined the Yin Sha Wolf.

To be honest, he wasn't particularly satisfied.

With the test of the evil god king, his original expectation was a high lifespan of 7,500 years, or even close to 8,000 years, in order to close the gap with 1,300 as much as possible.

However, he now understood that suitable evil spirit beasts were extremely rare and hard to come by in the Star Dou Great Forest. More importantly, he turned to look at Xiao Wu, who was still absent-minded beside him.

He didn't want to drag it out any longer.

For Xiao Wu's sake, he must leave here as soon as possible.

"Then let's go with this one." Tang San turned his head and gave an affirmative answer.

Flander and Zhao Wuji exchanged a glance and simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief.

The team immediately dispersed and skillfully set up a perimeter around the area.

Without any hesitation, Tang San stepped forward, a cold light flashed in his right palm, blood gushed out, and the Yin Sha Wolf's eyes gradually lost their life force.

A moment later, accompanied by a surge of cold energy, a purple soul ring slowly rose from the corpse of the Yin Sha Wolf.

Tang San took a deep breath and sat down cross-legged in front of the wolf corpse.

He closed his eyes, raised his right hand, and used his own Blue Silver Grass to forcefully pull the evil spirit ring into his body, drawing it in little by little, and began to absorb it.

.......

The spirit ring slowly contracted and eventually disappeared into Tang San's body.

As the spirit rings fused, Tang San opened his eyes.

A fleeting, sinister glint flashed in the depths of his pupils, followed by a surge of chilling soul power emanating from his body.

Seeing this, Flander, who had been standing guard nearby, breathed a long sigh of relief and quickly stepped forward, asking with concern, "Little Three, how are you feeling? Is the Soul-Devouring Yin Fiend Wolf's soul skill suitable?"

Tang San sat there, silently sensing the formation of his fourth soul skill, but his heart was filled with considerable turmoil.

The effect of this soul skill is extremely vicious. Its core abilities are "devouring" and "corrosion". Once entangled by the Blue Silver Grass with this soul skill, not only will the body be severely corroded by the toxin, but it will also absorb blood, soul power and life force through the wound and feed them back to Tang San himself.

This selfish and harmful tactic is exactly the same as that of the legendary, universally condemned fallen soul masters.

Tang San is a person who values ​​his reputation.

He knew that before he had fully developed his power, this trump card, which clearly had an evil nature, should not be easily exposed to the light of day, not even to Flander.

So, he concealed the strange look in his eyes and stood up:

"Dean, it feels pretty good. This soul skill can be attached to Blue Silver Grass, constantly eroding the opponent's power during battle, thus achieving a continuous depletion effect."

To make the lie even more convincing, Tang San added, "Moreover, this soul beast has a very strong foundation, which greatly increased the toughness of my Blue Silver Grass and also made considerable progress in my control over it."

Upon hearing this answer, Flander smacked his lips, finding it somewhat underwhelming. Merely "nibbling away" and increasing "toughness control" didn't sound as impressive as he'd imagined.

However, upon further reflection, he realized that since Blue Silver Herb was a useless martial soul, its effectiveness was likely due to the immense energy boost from its six thousand seven hundred years of transcendent power.

"Increasing resilience and control is already quite good. Control-type Soul Masters should prioritize dominating the entire battlefield." Flander nodded, not delving further, and waved his hand dismissively.

"Now that you've secured your spirit rings, it's best not to linger here. Everyone, pack up and let's head back immediately!"

The students readily agreed.

In the crowd, Xiao Wu kept her head down, silently following beside Tang San. Her face was somewhat pale, and her breathing was slightly more rapid than usual.

Actually, just now, while Tang San was fully absorbing the spirit ring, Xiao Wu used the excuse of going to the restroom to quietly slip away from the group's sight. She wanted to take advantage of everyone's inattention to see if Da Ming and Er Ming were still there, even if it was just for a quick glance.

However, she hadn't gone far after leaving the group when she unfortunately ran into a thousand-year-old soul beast. With her current soul power, surviving alone in the inner circle of the Star Dou Great Forest was simply a pipe dream.

Faced with the attack of the thousand-year-old soul beast, Xiao Wu could only grit her teeth and use teleportation to run away frantically, escaping back to the edge of the Shrek Academy team's warning range in a sorry state.

"With my current strength, reaching the Lake of Life alone is simply a pipe dream..." Xiao Wu murmured painfully to herself, her fingers twisting tightly together.

She knew that this time there was absolutely no chance; she could only wait until she became stronger and then find another opportunity to come back and investigate.

……

More than ten days later, the Shrek group, weary from their journey, finally returned to Shrek Academy in Heaven Dou City.

As soon as they stepped into the academy gates, before they even had time to wash up and rest, the sound of rapidly rolling wheels came from nearby.

Liu Erlong pushed Yu Xiaogang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and walked towards them.

Seeing everyone return safely, Yu Xiaogang's ashen face showed little joy. What baffled Flander even more was that the first thing Yu Xiaogang did upon returning was not to inquire about the progress of Tang San's spirit ring acquisition, his most promising direct disciple.

"Flander, you come with me. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, you two come too." Yu Xiaogang's voice was hoarse and urgent, his eyes gleaming with an urgent light.

"There's something important I need to discuss with you."

After saying that, Yu Xiaogang didn't give anyone time to react. He gestured to Liu Erlong to push him around and walk towards a secret room deep inside the academy.

Flander was completely bewildered, and a barely perceptible look of surprise flashed across Tang San's eyes, but he quickly concealed it and silently followed behind the group.

Since the matter was of great importance, although Yu Xiaogang only named names, Tang San, as his disciple, naturally went along as well.

The group arrived at the secret room, and Liu Erlong stepped forward and pushed open the wooden door.

As soon as he entered the house, Flander froze on the spot.

Not only Flander, but Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing also had their pupils shrink sharply when they saw the scene inside the room, their faces filled with disbelief.

In the center of the secret chamber, a person was tightly bound to an iron chair. The person was covered in bandages, weak in breath, and pale-faced.

Although he looked quite disheveled, everyone present recognized him at a glance.

This is none other than Zhu Muhei, a former member of the Kleinshi team at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's martial arts arena!

"Xiao Gang!" Flander turned his head sharply and asked in shock.

"What... what's going on? How did people from Clayth Academy end up tied up in our school's secret room?"
