Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Evil fire?

Lin Xiao took a closer look and indeed found something wrong.

He quickly realized that this person must have met Ma Xiaotao, which was why he became what he is now.

"You should still remember what happened back then. After hearing your news, the sect sent people to look for him again. Unexpectedly, they actually ran into him in the Mingdou Mountains."

"He was gathering a group of robbers under the name of Death Hand, and we took advantage of the situation to recruit them."

Lin Xiao was not surprised to hear this. Before he followed Sleepy Nightmare Douluo to Mingdu, he was supervising and cleaning up these recruited robbers near the border.

He is worthy of being known as the strongest soul king in history. Although he looks a bit miserable, he is still the first evil soul master who can escape the hands of the Shrek Supervisory Corps.

Nangong Wan didn't know what Lin Xiao was thinking, so he continued, "Yesterday he was sent back by disciples from the Mingdou Mountain Branch. They said he met the Shrek Supervisory Group."

"And the person who did it was none other than the Saint we've been searching for."

Lin Xiao didn't know what the Holy Spirit Cult's criteria for finding a Saintess were; perhaps she was just an evil spirit master with good talent. But seeing Nangong Wan's somewhat excited expression, Lin Xiao still offered a few compliments.

"The Holy Emperor has a long life, and the Saint's celestial figure remains forever."

"Well, it's too early to discuss this matter now. The sect has only inferred that the Saint Girl appeared at Shrek Academy. The leader has already gone to the Star Luo Empire to investigate the specific situation. When the leader returns, it will be time for us to take action."

"Originally, I just wanted you to be prepared, but since you're also going to the Xingluo Empire, you can help the sect keep an eye on Shrek Academy's actions."

Chapter 136 Feeling

In Xingluo City, the Xinghuang Hotel owned by the royal family no longer receives outsiders and is used exclusively as a resting place for contestants participating in the Fighting Spirit Competition.

As the champion of the previous Fighting Spirit Competition, Shrek Academy's teachers and contestants naturally live on the top floor. Looking through the window, the lights downstairs are dotted with the bustling street scenes of Xingluo City.

However, Wang Yan, the teacher in charge of the Shrek Academy, was in no mood to appreciate the scenery. He kept pacing back and forth in the corridor until the door of a room opened. He suddenly turned around and walked over anxiously.

"Luochen, how is Xiaotao doing?"

Ling Luochen gently closed the door, then turned to look at Wang Yan and shook his head, "Her evil fire has completely erupted. Although I helped her suppress it for a while, my soul power level is not as high as hers, so I can't hold on for too long."

"Alas." Wang Yan sighed, "It's a pity that Yuhao hasn't woken up yet. Otherwise, with his ultimate ice, Xiaotao should be able to recover."

Wang Yan said, and then looked at Ling Luochen in front of him, "How are your injuries?"

"I'm fine. Fortunately, Xiao Tao broke out early. Otherwise, if we let our guard down, the damage would be even greater."

Wang Yan nodded, his face looking a little grim. "Alas, what a pity for Haoxuan and the others..."

He stopped talking midway.

Ling Luochen, standing by, had a serious expression on his face. "As the Shrek Supervisory Group, we've already made preparations for this. Even if there are only a few of us left, we can still help the academy win the Soul Fighting Competition."

Wang Yan wasn't as optimistic as Ling Luochen, but he nodded anyway. "It all depends on how the academy arranges it."

As they were talking, a young man with pink-blue hair suddenly rushed out from another room. He looked no more than twelve years old and looked towards Wang Yan as soon as he came out.

"Teacher Wang, Yuhao is awake."

"Awake?" Wang Yan's expression changed, and he rushed into the nearby room. Although he wasn't entirely clear about the academy's specific arrangements, he understood what a student with twin spirits, both of which were rare, top-tier, meant to the academy.

If a student like this were to be injured in an accident, he would probably be unable to explain himself to the academy. Upon hearing the news that Huo Yuhao had woken up, Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and rushed into the room.

"Yuhao, how do you feel?"

In the room, a young man just sat up from the bed. He shook his head painfully before slowly coming back to his senses.

"Teacher Wong……"

"Yuhao, don't be anxious. Tell me slowly. How did you break free from that evil soul master? And why did you faint again?"

“At that time…” Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, “I was captured by that evil soul master. In desperation, I had no choice but to use all my mental energy to attack him. Later, I also passed out due to the backlash.”

"By the way, how long was I unconscious? What about the Soul Fighting Tournament? Where are the others?"

"It's okay, we have arrived in Xingluo City, and this is where we rest. You haven't been unconscious for too long, and the Fighting Spirit Competition hasn't started yet." Wang Yan shook his head.

"The others... the seriously injured disciples have been sent back to the academy, and the rest are recovering here."

Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but then he seemed to suddenly remember something. "Where's Senior Sister Xiaotao? I remember at the end, she seemed..."

"It's okay. You just woke up. Don't overthink it. Luochen has temporarily suppressed her emotions." Wang Yan saw Huo Yuhao about to get up and quickly pushed him back onto the bed. "Wait until you've fully recovered before helping Xiaotao."

He glanced at the blue-haired boy beside him and said, "Wang Dong, Yuhao just woke up, so we won't disturb him. You take care of him here."

"Yeah." Wang Dong nodded in agreement, and then Wang Yan took the others out of the room.

After closing the door, Wang Yan looked back and said, "Yuhao is such a kind child."

Ling Luochen on the side didn't say anything, just nodded slightly. Before she could say anything else, she seemed to suddenly realize something and turned to look in the direction of the stairs.

A group of more than ten people were emerging from there, led by two old men, followed by a group of young men and women.

"The Sun-Moon Empire Royal Soul Instructor Academy." Wang Yan also noticed something and turned his head, speaking softly as if talking to himself.

As the runner-up of the previous Soul Fighting Competition, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy naturally also lived on the top floor.

People from the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy have also arrived.

Wang Yan's face was a little sad. Shrek Academy had encountered an accident and faced such a powerful opponent. He just hoped that the academy could make arrangements as soon as possible.

Ma Rulong's father noticed Wang Yan's gaze, glanced at him, snorted coldly, and then walked into the room arranged for them.

"Humph, this Shrek Academy is really going too far. They change the leader of each fighting spirit competition. Do they think they can easily defeat us without studying any tactics? This time they even sent someone so young."

"Teacher Ma, I don't think being young necessarily means being incompetent." Xiao Hongchen said softly, "Isn't Captain Ma young and promising?"

Ma Rulong's father froze for a moment, glanced at Xiao Hongchen, and quickly changed the subject, "Well, we just arrived here today, so have a good rest tonight. You don't have to worry about the rest. We'll discuss the tactics in detail before the game starts."

Far away in the Sun and Moon Empire, Lin Jiayi looked at the empty arena and sighed slightly.

"Teacher, it's so late and you haven't rested yet?"

Lin Jiayi turned around and saw Lin Xiao walking towards him. "It's okay. It's common to stay up all night when researching soul guides. What about you? Why didn't you rest?"

"When I came out just now, I saw that the light was still on here, so I came over to take a look." Lin Xiao stopped and looked at the expression on Lin Jiayi's face. "Teacher, are you thinking about the Fighting Spirit Competition?"

"Yeah." Lin Jiayi sighed softly, "For so many years, Shrek Academy seems to be invincible. It makes me think a lot."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Once this Fighting Spirit Competition is over, you will officially enter Mingde Hall. Although I can't take you with me like I do now, you can always come to me if you have any questions."

"Yeah." Lin Xiao nodded, looked at Lin Jiayi and suddenly laughed, "Teacher, don't worry, we will definitely defeat Shrek Academy this time."

"Why do you sound more confident than me?"

Lin Jiayi also laughed.

"I can't say I'm confident." Lin Xiao shook his head. "It's just a feeling."

"Then I hope your feelings will come true."

Chapter 137 Seeing it with my own eyes

"Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!"

The Soul Fighting Competition had been going on for over half a month, and more and more spectators were gathering around the arena. At this moment, under the scorching sun, countless spectators in the audience were shouting the name of Shrek Academy in unison.

On the stage, there was only a rather frail figure barely standing.

Wang Dong took two steps forward and used both hands to help Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao, who had fallen to the ground. Although his body was shaking, he still managed to stand in the center of the ring.

"Referee, we win."

"Yes..." The referee on the stage finally came to his senses, "Yes, the winner is Shrek Academy!"

Suddenly, the shouts and applause from the audience became louder.

As for the preparation area of ​​the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, it was already silent.

Since the beginning of the competition, Shrek Academy has only sent out a few reserve players. At the beginning, they were still wondering whether Shrek Academy had hidden some tactics.

But in such an important game today, there are still only these children who are no older than fifteen years old playing. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that something must have happened to Shrek Academy.

But it was these reserve players who actually defeated their opponents all the way to advance to the round of 16, so that everyone ended up seriously injured.

"It's worthy of being Shrek Academy." Ma Rulong spoke softly, breaking the silence in the preparation area.

Even the usually arrogant Xiao Hongchen's expression changed when he looked at them. "This is our opponent in five years."

"Brother, it's just a game. Why are they so obsessed with it? If they get seriously injured or even disabled because of a game, where will they have a future?"

Meng Hongchen looked at Xiao Hongchen with some confusion.

"I don't know." Xiao Hongchen shook his head. "I'm not a member of Shrek, so I don't know what they think."

"Humph." Ma Rulong's father snorted coldly, interrupting the conversation. "No matter what Shrek Academy thinks, this class is the closest we have ever been to the championship."

"Based on my observations and investigations over the past few days, I've submitted an application to the academy, and the latest batch of soul guides will arrive today. If you truly appreciate the spirit of Shrek Academy, then do your best to defeat them. That's the truest respect for them."

"Let's go back."

As Ma Rulong's father spoke, he stood up and walked out of the competition venue. The other students' gazes lingered in the direction of Shrek Academy for a moment, and they also stood up and followed him.

In the audience, a figure slowly stood up, but did not cheer loudly like the others around him, seeming a little out of place.

But in such a busy place, not many people noticed him.

Lin Xiao's gaze remained in the direction of Shrek Academy. He stared at Wang Dong on the ring for a long time, and sighed slightly in his heart.

He arrived earlier than the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy had anticipated. Xu Sanshi, the awakened Xuanwu, the ultimate martial spirit, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the Clear Sky Hammer... these words that existed in his memory appeared before his eyes, and an inexplicable feeling rose in his heart.

The Shrek Academy reserve players were injured or even fainted; it was truly a tragic victory. However, Lin Xiao was more concerned about Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's performance in the arena.

Others might be confused by Huo Yuhao's spirit ring, but he knew clearly his strength. The fact that he could have such a brilliant performance with only the second ring cultivation level was inseparable from Wang Dong beside him.

But the original Huo Yuhao possessed three martial souls: Spirit Eyes, Ice Blue Emperor Scorpion, and Alex. These were vaguely compatible with Wang Dong's two martial souls and the Sea God's consciousness, completing a 100% martial soul fusion.

And now, Alex is in Lin Xiao's body, and Huo Yuhao is still able to complete the fusion of his martial souls with Wang Dong. This is no longer something that can be explained by "coincidence".

Perhaps, Tang Wutong's original soul power state was Wang Dong's true appearance. Her superior soul power could not form a martial soul fusion with Huo Yuhao. It was only after she became Wang Dong that her soul power also changed, which led to her current state.

Completely changing a person's soul power state is a huge feat, and it is indeed not something that ordinary people can do.

Lin Xiao raised his head slightly, glanced at the clear blue sky, then turned and left the audience.

A group of people from the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy were walking towards their residence at the Star Emperor Hotel. Ma Rulong, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked at the street beside him.

"Senior Lin?"
