Golden-red fiery wings unfurled behind him, and wherever the wings passed, the air seemed to be ignited, rippling out in a twisted, water-like pattern.
Her overall demeanor was extremely fierce, and surrounded by golden-red flames, she possessed a unique wild beauty.
The number of spirit rings pulsating around her delicate body was actually six, and it was the optimal combination of two yellow, two purple, and two black spirit rings.
Perhaps it's not just a simple case of a six-ring Soul Emperor.
The scorching aura merged with the fluctuations of his own soul power, making it seem as if the six soul rings could turn into seven in the next moment.
As her first spirit ring shone brightly, a golden-red pillar of fire instantly shot out from her hands. The cross-sectional area of the fire pillar reached one meter in diameter, forcing the male student opposite her to retreat step by step.
"Chu Qingtian, you coward. Can't you face me head-on? Can't you even look me in the eye?"
The male student known as Chu Qingtian only had five spirit rings. However, his speed was astonishing, and under the cover of his spirit rings, faint brownish-yellow hair could be seen on his body.
He clearly possesses a martial soul that excels at speed.
As his figure flashed, Chu Qingtian's voice rang out.
"Senior Wu Ming, can you be reasonable? You're a power-attack type Soul Master, and your Golden Crow True Fire is not far from the ultimate fire. I'm an agility-attack type, and my soul power is ten levels lower than yours. How am I supposed to fight you head-on? If I really go at it, it won't be a friendly spar, it'll be suicide."
At the edge of the field stood a young man who appeared to be around the same age as Chu Qingtian and Wu Ming. He was well-proportioned, neither overly muscular nor overly thin.
He watched with amusement as the two men faced off in the center of the arena.
However, his smile quickly faded.
Wu Ming withdrew the golden-red flames from her palm with little interest and glared angrily at Chu Qingtian opposite her.
Although Chu Qingtian's strength wasn't outstanding among the inner courtyard disciples, his speed was undoubtedly the best in the inner courtyard. If Chu Qingtian wanted to escape, she really couldn't do anything about it.
"Forget it, I'm not playing anymore, it's so boring." Her full breasts heaved as she turned to look at the young man at the edge of the field.
"Ye Liu, you're also a flying-type Soul Master, why don't you come and play with me?"
"Senior Sister Wu Ming, no, no. My martial spirit isn't good at fighting. Let Qing Tian do it." Ye Liu was taken aback at first, then shook her head hurriedly like a rattle-drum.
Although Wu Ming looks young, she is actually twenty-seven years old. Among all the inner court disciples, she is considered one of the most senior.
In terms of strength, she is only below Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister of the inner academy, and another senior sister, Han Ruoruo.
Chu Qingtian looked at Ye Liu, that ungrateful guy, with a face full of resentment, opened his mouth and mouthed a sentence.
Ye Liu raised an eyebrow, about to say something more, when she saw Yan Shaozhe and Xu Zihuang slowly descending.
Even Wu Ming restrained her temper in front of Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department, and the three of them came to Yan Shaozhe's side and bowed respectfully.
"Dean Yan."
Yan Shaozhe put his right hand on Xu Zihuang's shoulder and then introduced him to the three of them: "His name is Yu Tianhuang. He is going to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain a spirit ring, and he is going with you."
After saying that, he patted Xu Zihuang on the shoulder and turned to leave.
The three of them had noticed Xu Zihuang long ago.
Moreover, judging from that white school uniform, she is a student from the Foreign Languages Department.
What kind of students from the outer academy would be personally introduced by Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department?
The same thought arose in their minds as they scrutinized Xu Zihuang.
Chu Qingtian and Ye Liu did not feel jealous because of Xu Zihuang's outstanding appearance. They smiled at Xu Zihuang in a friendly manner.
Students who can enter Shrek Academy's inner court can't be fools. Xu Zihuang is valued so highly by Yan Shaozhe; he must possess extraordinary abilities.
Wu Ming also looked at Xu Zihuang with surprise.
There are quite a few handsome male students among the inner court disciples, but they are not even in the same league as Xu Zihuang in front of them.
In that short time, two more people came over.
Leading the way was an elderly man with disheveled hair, who swayed along as he happily gnawed on a chicken leg. He also had a gourd of wine tucked into his waistband.
At first glance, he looked like a disheveled drunkard who had appeared out of nowhere.
But Xu Zihuang, Wu Ming, and the other two all bowed respectfully to the old man.
"Elder Xuan."
That's right, the person who came was the Gluttonous Douluo Xuanlao, a super strong person with a soul power of level 98.
Walking behind Elder Xuan was a woman who appeared to be about the same age as Wu Ming. She had long black hair that reached her waist. Her delicate face was fair and flawless, and her tranquil and gentle temperament was unforgettable.
It was none other than Zhang Lexuan, the senior disciple of the inner courtyard.
When Elder Xuan's gaze fell upon Xu Zihuang, a glint of light flashed in his eyes. But it quickly disappeared as he sucked on the tender chicken leg meat and shook the chicken bone in his hand.
"Let's go, little ones. I happen to have nothing to do, so I'll accompany you on a trip to the Star Dou Great Forest. However, I'm just accompanying you this time; Le Xuan will be in charge of the actual command."
"Yes, Elder Xuan."
The group of six then leisurely made their way along the rugged mountain path towards the edge of Poseidon Island. Elder Xuan, leading the way, remained unchanged, sipping meat and drinking wine as if he were perpetually hungry.
"Senior Sister, why are you leading the team this time?" Wu Ming affectionately wrapped her arms around Zhang Lexuan's, her face full of surprise.
Zhang Lexuan smiled without saying a word, then stopped and looked at the crowd.
"This shouldn't be the first time any of you have entered the Star Dou Great Forest. We have new members joining us this time, so let's introduce ourselves. Briefly state your names, martial spirits, and cultivation levels to facilitate coordination within the Star Dou Great Forest."
"I'll go first. My name is Zhang Lexuan, an assistant instructor and student in the Inner Academy. My martial soul is the Moon. I'm a power-attack type battle soul master, and this time I'll be in charge of leading and commanding the team. I don't need any soul rings. My soul power is level 82."
When she mentioned the words "level 82," everyone, including Xu Zihuang, was somewhat shocked.
However, compared to this, Wu Ming was more concerned about other things.
Why does the senior sister value this junior from the Foreign Languages Department so much?
Wu Ming gave Xu Zihuang a strange look.
She has a very strong-willed personality. Although Xu Zihuang's appearance appealed to her aesthetic, she didn't feel much for him. Compared to looks, she was more attracted to powerful male Soul Masters.
Unfortunately, the entire inner courtyard was dominated by women, and because of her volatile temper, the male disciples of the inner courtyard always avoided her.
Her nickname, Golden Crow Saintess, was not without a hint of mockery.
In short, she is a very straightforward girl.
"My name is Wu Ming, an inner court disciple. My martial soul is the Golden Crow, a powerful attack-type battle soul emperor, level 70. I need my seventh soul ring."
Chu Qingtian and Ye Liu held Zhang Lexuan, their senior sister, in genuine awe and respect. Since Zhang Lexuan had spoken, the two then introduced themselves.
"My name is Chu Qingtian, an inner court disciple. I am a level 60 agility-type Battle Soul King. I need my sixth Soul Ring. My Martial Soul is the Electric Mad Leopard."
"My name is Ye Liu, an inner court disciple. A support-type Battle Soul King. Level 60. I need my sixth Soul Ring. My Martial Soul is a Swan."
After everyone finished their introductions, all eyes turned to Xu Zihuang.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Xu Zihuang smiled calmly.
"Hello everyone. My name is Yu Tianhuang. I'm a second-year student in the Outer Academy, a Battle Soul Master in the Control Department. I'm level 40 and need my fourth Soul Ring. My Martial Soul is the Golden Eye. Please take good care of me."
Upon hearing Xu Zihuang's words, the expressions on the faces of Wu Ming, Chu Qingtian, and Ye Liu were quite interesting.
"A second-year student in the outer academy, does that mean you're only twelve years old?"
"You reached level 40 in soul power at the age of twelve? You're not kidding us, are you?" Wu Ming, who was straightforward, immediately questioned. She didn't mean any harm; she just found it unbelievable.
Ye Liu also noticed another key point in Xu Zihuang's words.
"Golden Eyes Martial Soul? Wait, your Martial Soul isn't an eye, is it? A Spirit-attribute Body Martial Soul?"
Zhang Lexuan timely came to Xu Zihuang's rescue, saying, "This junior brother Yu's soul power has indeed reached level 40, breaking our Shrek Academy's record of ten thousand years. Let's talk about any questions on the way."
Zhang Lexuan held a very high position among the inner court disciples, and after she said that, the three of them wisely refrained from asking any further questions.
"Alright, everyone come here." Old Master Xuan, who was walking in front, wiped his mouth with his dirty, greasy sleeve and called out lazily from the front.
Everyone hurried forward.
Because Shrek Academy was just starting its new semester these past few days, the group's unusual combination attracted the attention of many new students.
However, when Xu Zihuang passed by the East Gate this time, he did not see Cao Jinxuan, Zhou Sichen and Tuoba Yu again.
Shrek Academy is indeed very close to the Star Dou Great Forest; otherwise, when the beast tide surged from the Star Dou Great Forest, Shrek City wouldn't have been the first target of the attack.
Xu Zihuang, Tang Ya, Bei Bei, and the others took a long detour because they entered the Star Dou Great Forest from the southwest.
This time, with the super strong Elder Xuan and the Soul Douluo Zhang Lexuan leading the way, the group naturally didn't need to take a detour. They entered the Star Dou Great Forest directly from the area with the highest quality soul beasts, which was also the closest to Shrek City.
When the group first set off, they originally planned to take care of Xu Zihuang.
But gradually, they discovered that Xu Zihuang not only kept up but was also handling the situation with ease. Subsequently, everyone tacitly increased their speed.
They arrived safely before noon.
"Everyone, take a break and have something to eat. Get everyone in top condition. We'll enter the Starry Sky in half an hour." Zhang Lexuan's command was very concise.
We're approaching the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, past the danger warning signs. Further ahead, we'll enter the Star Dou Great Forest itself.
Old Master Xuan, meanwhile, was lying on a branch of a towering tree behind the group, his eyes glazed with drunkenness, clutching his large wine gourd.
Through Xu Zihuang's performance along the way, Wu Ming, Chu Qingtian, and Ye Liu also accepted the fact that Yu Tianhuang broke through to level 40 at the age of twelve.
Chu Qingtian and Ye Liu's attitude towards Xu Zihuang visibly became closer, not only because of Xu Zihuang's top talent, but also because they felt very comfortable and natural being with him.
Chapter 127 Delving into the Stars
The four sat together.
Zhang Lexuan and Wu Ming sat on one side, while Xu Zihuang and Ye Liu sat on the other side.
Ye Liu seemed somewhat reserved in front of her senior sister, Zhang Lexuan. Xu Zihuang, on the other hand, remained completely at ease.
Wu Ming, who was sitting next to Zhang Lexuan, kept her gaze fixed on Xu Zihuang.
"Senior Wu, is there anything I can help you with?" Xu Zihuang asked politely.
Wu Ming didn't hide her thoughts and said frankly, "I'm wondering how you managed to reach level 40 at the age of twelve. Even our senior sister back then couldn't do that."
Xu Zihuang chuckled softly.
"Maybe it's because I'm more talented."
His tone was calm, as if he were stating a fact, without any intention of boasting.
Wu Ming was speechless for a moment, and exchanged a glance with Zhang Lexuan beside her.
