Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

Wanting to massacre the city lord's mansion? Isn't that insane?

Without giving it much thought, Chen Luo quickly adjusted his breathing and joined the other battles.

In less than half an hour, the evil soul masters were routed. The leader, a Soul Saint, was killed by Flander, and the other evil soul masters naturally could not escape their fate of death.

It wasn't that Flanders and his group were too strong, but rather that the fighting force on the city lord's side was growing stronger with each battle, while the evil soul masters received no support. As a result, the evil soul masters were destined to lose.

Soto City may not have any Title Douluo-level experts, and there may be very few Soul Douluo-level experts, but there are still a certain number of Soul Saint-level experts.

Flander was able to kill the evil soul master at the Soul Saint level because Soul Saint-level reinforcements arrived.

A Soul Saint evil Soul Master, who already struggles to fight one-on-one, would naturally be no match for two Soul Saints, and wouldn't even have a chance to escape.

"boom!"

The Blood Bird Evil Soul Master was slammed to the ground by Yun Hongyi, his body covered in wounds and on the verge of death. He had already automatically withdrawn his martial soul. His clothes were stained red with blood, and his blood-red eyes had returned to normal. He looked somewhat similar to Yun Hongyi.

"Where is your mother?" Yun Hongyi asked coldly.

The young man revealed a strange smile and spoke in an extremely weak voice: "I know you want to kill her and uphold the justice you believe in, so I've done it for you in advance."

Upon hearing this, Yun Hongyi glared angrily.

Seeing the expression on Yun Hongyi's face, the young man's smile grew even wider. At the same time, black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth until he completely lost his breath.

Without exception, all the captured evil spirit masters chose to die in the same way as the young man, and the battle came to a complete end.

The Soto City guards began efficiently disposing of the corpses, while the relatively powerful reinforcements quietly departed.

Not long after, Soto City's professional construction team arrived at the city lord's mansion to repair the damaged buildings. If all goes well, everything will be back to normal by tomorrow.

However, Yun Hongyi, the city lord of Soto City, could never go back to the way things were. For the sake of justice in his heart, he killed all the evil spirit masters, but because of justice in his heart, he completely lost his wife and son.

The next morning, the Soto City Lord's Palace issued a shocking announcement that reverberated throughout the city.

The announcement did not reveal that Soto City Lord Yun Hongyi had meticulously planned everything to finally eradicate the evil spirit masters in Soto City and restore peace to the city.

Instead, Yun Hongyi, the former lord of Soto City, is a thing of the past, and a new lord is about to arrive in Soto City.

Yun Hongyi still wields considerable influence in Soto City. No one can remove him from his position as city lord, especially given his achievement in eliminating evil spirit masters. The reason is simple: he himself no longer wants the position.

……

Around noon.

Shrek Academy cafeteria.

“More than a thousand people in a village north of Soto were all killed,” Flander said calmly.

Chen Luo said, "This probably won't satisfy the appetite of evil soul masters. There's a Soul Saint, two Soul Emperors, a Pseudo-Soul Saint, and several evil soul masters. They're unlikely to do such a losing business."

“I think so too, but I haven’t found a suitable reason yet,” Flander said.

Chen Luo asked, "Are there any other clues over there?"

Flanders took a sip of water: "We found some unusual wood."

"Que Zeyu?"

"Probably."

"It's most likely him. His martial spirit is very special. No wonder I didn't see him last night. It turns out he went to a more important place."

"A Soul Master with only half a level of innate soul power shouldn't be worth the evil soul master doing that, right?" Flander frowned slightly.

"Of course, he should just be the key."

"key?"

Flander paused slightly, then asked with a hint of shock, "Could it be that another Soul Master... a Title Douluo-level evil Soul Master has appeared?"

"It's hard to say, but logically speaking, that should be the case."

Chen Luo said, "Evil Soul Masters are extremely cunning beings. For them to be willing to sacrifice themselves at any cost, they must have something more important to obtain."

Flander's expression turned somewhat grim: "The stronger the evil soul master, the more time they need to adjust themselves after appearing. It seems that Soto City is safe for the time being, but that may not be the case after a while."

"How long is 'a while'? A few years, a dozen years, or even decades? Who can say for sure?"

Chen Luo took a sip of water, then muttered to himself, "Sake still tastes better. It's a pity I forgot to buy some yesterday."

"It's very possible that we won't be in Soto anymore by then."

"Not in Soto City? What do you mean by that?" Flander asked immediately, even more excited than when he heard news about evil spirit masters.

Chen Luo smiled slightly: "Boss Fu, broaden your horizons. Is Shrek Academy only limited to Soto City?"

Flander laughed: "Of course not, we at Shrek are going to grow bigger and stronger!"

After lunch, Chen Luo returned to his dormitory.

He brewed himself a cup of hot tea, took out a large book from the Divine Dragon Space, and sat down at the table.

Open your palm, and a transparent sphere about the size of a thumb quietly appears.

"Last night's harvest was alright. I got a total of forty soul fragments of evil soul masters. I didn't expect that one evil soul master at the Soul Saint level would be worth two of them. I guess it's an extra gain."

"It seems that collecting the soul fragments of a hundred evil soul masters will not be an easy task, especially since the evil soul masters have caused such a commotion. There will probably be no news about them for a long time. This failed product can only be placed in the Divine Dragon Space for self-reflection."

"I have to say, last night was really exciting. It was my first time experiencing a battle of that scale, although Yun Hongyi ended up in a rather miserable state..."

Chapter 58 Stop

After the battle last night, Chen Luo and Flander learned the whole story from Yun Hongyi.

The young man with the "Blood Bird" martial soul was Yun Hongyi's son, Yun Ying. Yun Ying's original martial soul was the Azure Bird, which he inherited from Yun Hongyi.

Several years ago, Yunying was targeted by the evil spirit masters and became their test subject.

Even though Yun Hongyi later successfully rescued Yun Ying, Yun Ying's martial soul had already mutated and become an evil blood bird.

Yunying's Blood Bird is simply called Blood Bird; it is completely different from Xu Yuanjia's mutated martial soul, Blood Bird.

After his martial spirit transformed into a blood bird, Yunying lived in endless pain every day, tormented by powers that did not belong to him.

Yun Hongyi tried various methods, but to no avail. It was already extremely difficult for him to save Yun Ying's life.

Given Yun Ying's condition, she could have been killed as an evil spirit master, but because Yun Hongyi was the city lord of Soto City, and Yun Ying was originally a victim, she was spared.

After that, Yunying was kept in the city lord's mansion by Yun Hongyi, who kept looking for various solutions, but no effective solution was found.

Yunying's mother felt sorry for Yunying and was looking for various solutions. At the same time, she hated Yun Hongyi to the core and blamed all the mistakes on him.

Later, Yunying's mother accidentally came into contact with an evil spirit master, which then stirred up a bloody storm in Soto City.

When strange phenomena began to appear in Soto City, Yun Hongyi had already begun to suspect Yun Ying's mother, but Yun Ying's mother was no pushover either, and she hid herself very well.

As things got more serious, Yun Hongyi became increasingly suspicious that Yun Ying's mother was behind it all.

Yun Hongyi had taken note of this at that time, and all subsequent changes in the City Lord's Mansion were under his control.

Flanders' arrival in Soto was specially arranged by Yun Hongyi.

Of course, since the words came from Yun Hongyi's mouth, it's hard to say whether Yun Hongyi was deliberately covering for someone. People's hearts are unpredictable, and only Yun Hongyi himself knows the truth of the story. Chen Luo was too lazy to verify anything, after all, the matter was already in the past.

Flander was willing to believe Yun Hongyi. Chen Luo had too little contact with Yun Hongyi, so he could only say that what happened last night barely deserved the word "justice." At least Chen Luo saw the righteous act of sacrificing family for the greater good.

Compared to Yun Hongyi's personal affairs, Chen Luo was actually more concerned about the villages north of Soto City that had suffered, which meant the loss of more than a thousand lives.

The concept of an evil spirit master is both difficult and easy to define; this seemingly contradictory conclusion is, in fact, real.

Putting everything else aside, the things the evil spirit masters did in Soto City are truly infuriating.

Chen Luo also felt a bit guilty. If Que Zeyu had really been involved, and he and Flander had killed Que Zeyu when they first met him, perhaps these things could have been avoided.

But who can say for sure? Que Zeyu's fate is also fate. In his entanglement with evil soul masters, Que Zeyu is more of a victim. A soul master without combat power finds it difficult to do bad things. Even if he is a so-called henchman, he is actually just a tool to test the strength of the target.

Besides, with the powerful creative abilities of evil soul masters, anyone can become Que Zeyu.

Chen Luo put the failed product back into the Divine Dragon Space, read a book for a while, and then cultivated for an afternoon.

Last night's battle did have many benefits for Chen Luo's improvement. Battles on the brink of life and death often stimulate a person's potential, and Chen Luo's cultivation efficiency today was exceptionally high.

As for the little monsters, Chen Luo had already informed them in the morning that they could arrange their own time in the afternoon starting today.

Chen Luo's influence is no longer significant. The little monsters' physical strength has already increased by a level. Even if they haven't reached their full limit, they are not far from it. After that, they can gradually improve by arranging their own time. With their self-discipline, they can definitely do it.

Chen Luo's previous role was to help the little monsters improve their physical strength. When the opportunity arose, he would also explain some knowledge about Soul Masters and Soul Beasts. More professional knowledge was taught by the little monsters' dedicated teachers.

Although he was called a master, Chen Luo always knew his own position very well.

To be honest, anyone could replace him, or even do a better job. He just happens to have the title of "master" and know a few things.

As evening fell, Chen Luo arrived in front of the monster teaching building, where all eight little monsters were already in place.

Without further ado, everyone set off for Soto City, and the Soul Advancement Training continued.

The results that night were pretty good; apart from Yu Xiuyuan and Xiao Wu's unfortunate defeats, everyone else won.

Chen Luo meticulously recorded every detail of the little monsters' matches, noting their strengths, weaknesses, highlights, and mistakes in battle.

With Yu Xiaogang's vast knowledge and Chen Luo's continuous learning over the years, becoming the little monsters' combat analyst was no problem for him.

Now that I've come to the Soul Arena with the little monsters, I'm not just here to accompany them and watch the matches. I'm here to make the most of my value.

A master, of course, must play the role of a master.

Watching each match carefully and analyzing it is also beneficial for Chen Luo himself. While helping the little monsters improve, he is also improving himself.

"Yu Xiuyuan's performance today was generally good. His proficiency with his soul skills is already very high. His low soul power level was the main reason for his failure. Keep up the good work and improve your strength."

"Yes, teacher!"

Chen Luo led the little monsters through the streets of Soto City, each with a skewer of grilled meat, all on Chen Luo's treat. As they walked, Chen Luo casually mentioned the little monsters' performance in the Soul Arena.

"Xiao Wu, you must change your arrogant personality. You had a chance to win today, but you were too confident. Your waist bow is not invincible. You actually used teleportation and charm as soon as the fight started. Who gave you the courage to take out all your resources to fight someone whose soul power level is six levels higher than yours?"

"I……"

Xiao Wu initially wanted to argue, but ultimately nodded with a blush: "It was my fault, it won't happen again."

"Everyone else did a great job. Keep it up! If you all perform well, I'll treat you to barbecue skewers every day!"

"Okay!"

Except for Zhu Zhuqing, who remained cold-faced, the other little monsters cheered.
