Douluo Continent: The Great Villain System, Intercepting Tianmeng's Ice Silkworm

Chapter 46 Shrek Inspection Team

However, no spirit rings appeared; Su Yuntian had Tianmeng Ice Silkworm hide them.

Ling Luochen looked at the enormous ice-green scorpion behind Su Yuntian and felt his soul tremble.

The suppression from her martial spirit rendered her unable to move for a time.

At the same time, a ball of emerald green light shone from Su Yuntian's chest. The ball of light grew larger and larger, and a wave of emerald green light suddenly spread out.

The Land of Eternal Freeze!

As soon as Ling Luochen made contact, he was surprised to find that his body surface was gradually covered with a layer of ice crystals. Without any chance to resist, he was frozen into an ice sculpture!

With only Yao Haoxuan and Chen Zifeng remaining on the field, both were exhausted and soon fell to defeat as well.

Elder Xuan walked onto the stage and chuckled, "Alright, Ma Xiaotao's team has won. The losers, now it's time for your punishment."

"I'm a pig!" Dai Yueheng shouted without hesitation, his facial muscles twitching, clearly showing that he was indeed unconvinced!

Yao Haoxuan and Chen Zifeng also shouted out their slogans in desperation.

While Ling Luochen was saying this, his gaze remained fixed on Su Yuntian.

Dai Huabin also shouted it out calmly, but Zhu Lu and Ning Tian, ​​the two girls, were a little shy and still whispered it out.

After the match, both sides gathered together to exchange ideas.

Dai Yueheng glanced at the Lan sisters, his tone somewhat surprised, "No wonder you were able to become reserve team members at such a young age, it turns out it's because of your Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

Both of them have excellent hair-based martial souls, but it's obviously impossible for them to become reserve team members based solely on the quality of their martial souls.

Chen Zifeng's eyes lit up, his voice filled with undisguised amazement: "I really didn't expect that the seven of you would have three pairs of Martial Soul Fusion Skills!"

Ling Luochen walked straight up to Su Yuntian, his tone somewhat cold: "Ultimate Ice?"

"Yes, senior." Su Yuntian nodded, making no attempt to hide anything.

"Alright, little ones, meet at the Shrek Academy gate first thing tomorrow morning to prepare for our journey to Star Luo City," Elder Xuan said as he approached.

……

The next morning, at the gates of Shrek City.

Everyone was already waiting there. Elder Xuan slowly walked over and said, "Alright, let's go."

The group walked slowly like ordinary people, without using any soul power. Compared to the previous grueling training, such as running, they seemed very relaxed at this moment.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Elder Xuan finally stopped, his expression unusually serious. He said in a deep voice, "We're not far from the academy. I have some things to say beforehand. You seven little ones in the reserve team, listen carefully, as this will determine your future direction at the academy."

Elder Xuan said, "Our Shrek Academy has a history of tens of thousands of years. Generally speaking, a powerful Soul Master can live for at least two hundred years, or even longer."

Almost every year, the academy sends students to the inner court through examinations. However, currently, there are fewer than one hundred inner court disciples remaining in the academy. Do you know why?

Ning Tian said, "Because the seniors have all graduated and left."

Elder Xuan shook his head and said, "You're right about part of it. Indeed, some inner court disciples left the academy after graduation."

However, I want to talk about another group: those disciples who did not graduate from the academy.

At this point, Elder Xuan's voice clearly carried a hint of sorrow: "They were all good children. Although they did not truly graduate, their names are still recorded on the academy's roster."

They took the ideals of the academy as their own; they were not incapable of graduating, but they died fighting for the academy's ideals.

"It cannot be denied that from the moment you became candidates for disciples, you had already stepped into the inner courtyard with one foot in the door."

But precisely because of this, I must confirm whether you are willing to take on the responsibilities that belong to the Inner Court before I actually take you away from the academy.

If you don't want to, you can go back to the academy now, and no one will blame you.

You will still be able to study and graduate smoothly in the School of Foreign Languages.

Moreover, I want to tell you that the inner court doesn't actually teach much more than the outer court. The reason why the inner court disciples are so powerful is precisely because of that sense of responsibility.

If you choose to go back, you must swear an oath to keep it a secret, just like those students who chose to leave after graduating from the Foreign Languages ​​Department. Can you keep that promise?

Everyone could sense that Elder Xuan's words were extraordinary, and they all said in unison, "Yes!"

Seeing this, Elder Xuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "The biggest difference between the inner and outer courtyards is that the inner courtyard has a responsibility, namely, supervision."

Once a Soul Master reaches a certain level of strength, they are very likely to develop the idea that they are the best in the world, and thus bully ordinary people.

There was once a Soul Emperor who slaughtered all the civilians in an entire village simply because the food didn't suit his taste.

If any heinous incidents occur on the mainland that are beyond the control or neglect of the country, or if a Soul Master commits evil deeds, our inner court disciples will step in to resolve them.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

At this time, our inner court students were called inspectors, Shrek inspectors, and our inner court also had another name, the Shrek Inspection Team.

Currently, I am the deputy head of this inspection team.

Elder Xuan paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Alright, now you need to give me an answer: join or leave."

"Join!" everyone shouted in unison.

"Very good. We also have a mission this time. Xiao Tao, tell us about it," Elder Xuan said with a smile.

Ma Xiaotao stepped out from the crowd and handed a storage ring to everyone, saying, "Take this. You only need to drip a drop of blood to use it later. It contains some equipment from the surveillance team."

Our mission this time is to go to a mountainous region bordering the Star Luo Empire and the Sun Moon Empire to find and kill a group of bandits. The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament is just around the corner.

Therefore, we must complete this task within three to four days.

"This gang of bandits was extremely cruel and cunning. They specialized in intercepting and killing merchants traveling between the two countries, leaving no survivors. They were utterly ruthless, committing all sorts of atrocities, including arson, murder, and robbery."

Be careful when you encounter them later.

By the way, those bandits called themselves messengers of death, and their leader was a powerful evil spirit master.

A demonic spirit master?!

Within the Sea of ​​Spirit, Qian Renxue was taken aback upon hearing those three words and quickly asked, "Yun Tian, ​​what's going on with the Evil Soul Masters? Weren't they imprisoned in the City of Slaughter? How did they escape again?"

"What else could have happened? Tang San destroyed the Slaughter Capital. After he became a god, no one was managing those evil soul masters anymore," Su Yuntian shrugged, seemingly unconcerned.

"Destroyed...?" Qian Renxue's pupils shrank, somewhat incredulous.

Why would he do that? What good would it do him to destroy the City of Slaughter?

However, Su Yuntian did not answer her, but listened quietly to Ma Xiaotao's words.

P.S.: Happy New Year everyone! Wishing you all the best! This is the fifth update today!
