Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 781 Nine Treasures Arrive, Rainbow Appears, Peak Lineup, Activate the Formation! (Part 2)

The final location for the treatment was set at the Sea God Pavilion. In the entire Douluo Continent, apart from the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest and the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, which are two absolutely blessed places, the Golden Ancient Tree where the Sea God Pavilion is located is the most suitable place.

As the core of Shrek Academy, the Sea God Pavilion has rarely seen large gatherings of people in thousands of years. However, now, in order to help Jiang Ming heal his injuries and recover to his peak condition as soon as possible, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion have made an exception.

Early in the morning, the four elders, Elder Xuan, Elder Song, Elder Lin, and Elder Zhuang, began preparations inside the Sea God Pavilion. The four deans of the Martial Soul Department and Soul Guidance Department, Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, Qian Duoduo, and Cai Mei'er, were stationed around the academy to prevent any unforeseen events.

In addition, the Soul Master Corps of thousands of people in Shrek City also went on alert. Centered on the Sea God Pavilion, four Soul Guidance Artillery positions were even set up within Shrek Academy and Shrek City!

Since the development of the Soul Guidance System and its cooperation with the military of the three great empires, the profits it has made each year have been enormous!

However, having a lot of money is meaningless if you don't spend it.

Therefore, at Jiang Ming's suggestion and with the approval of the elders of the Sea God Pavilion, the academy poured a large amount of gold soul coins into training the Soul Master Corps!

A well-organized and well-equipped Soul Master Corps possesses terrifying combat power! Moreover, Shrek Academy has natural advantages in building its own Soul Master Corps.

In terms of Soul Master ability, Shrek Academy is the number one Soul Master Academy on the continent. Even if it only recruits members of the Soul Master Corps from the graduates of the outer academy, they are all at least Soul Masters, so there is no need to worry about personnel issues.

In terms of Soul Master capabilities, the Soul Guidance Department is now in a snowballing phase. The more Soul Tools they produce, the more cooperation they have with the three great empires, and the more money they have. And the more money they have, the more outstanding Soul Masters they can cultivate! After all, Shrek Academy currently boasts three Level 9 Soul Masters: Jiang Ming, Qian Duoduo, and Fan Yu! They have completely opened the path to becoming top-tier Soul Masters!
Under these circumstances, it wouldn't be too difficult for Shrek Academy to form a Soul Master Corps.

Of course, the number must be controlled. Two Soul Master Corps, a thousand people each, one for offense and one for defense, that's enough.

Any more, and the three great empires would have to be wary of Shrek City's overwhelming military might.

Whoosh whoosh!
Above Shrek City, teams of Soul Masters conduct aerial patrols of the entire city at regular intervals.

Even the area dozens of kilometers outside Shrek City is within the patrol range.

Meanwhile, in the four directions outside Shrek City, four soul-guided artillery positions have already been set up, with the highest-level soul-guided cannon among them reaching level eight!

It's not that they can't build a level nine soul cannon, after all, Shrek Academy already has several level nine soul masters. But building a level nine soul cannon takes time. For Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu, who have just become level nine soul masters, they have already built an automatic trigger level nine defensive soul tool for Jiang Ming, so there is simply no time to build a level nine soul cannon.

However, there are no level 9 soul-guided cannons, but each position has more than one level 8 soul-guided cannon!
It can be said that even if a Title Douluo or even a Super Douluo appears, the firepower of this Soul Guidance Cannon position can force the opponent to retreat!

"Senior Brother, how's the situation on your end?"

At the northern artillery position, Huo Yuhao held his newly developed long-range voice transmission soul tool and called out to Bei Bei.

Despite being called a long-distance communication soul tool, the distance from the northern to the eastern artillery positions of Shrek City was already the limit of communication.

At the Eastern Fortress position, Beibei surveyed the surroundings and inquired with the Soul Master Corps, who had just returned from an aerial patrol.

"Yuhao, I haven't found anything on my end yet."

At this moment, Xu Sanshi's voice came from another long-distance voice transmission device hanging on Beibei's waist.

"The academy has prepared enough for a war. I don't think any brainless fool would dare to make a move at this time, would he?"

He Caitou, listening to Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi's voices from the south, said in a deep voice, "Indeed, this formation is terrifying. Four soul-guided artillery positions, each equipped with two level-eight soul-guided cannons, five level-seven soul-guided cannons, ten level-six soul-guided cannons, and the rest are all level-five or lower soul-guided cannons, totaling more than one hundred. In addition, there is a soul master regiment of one thousand people, whose cultivation level is at least Soul Master. Even the Sun Moon Empire would find it difficult to produce such a lineup!"

Xu Sanshi said, "Hey! Our Tang Clan also contributed to this lineup! The Zhuge Divine Crossbow Cannon that Yuhao developed is the main equipment for this artillery position. Our academy is really rich and powerful, ordering five hundred of them at once!"

Beibei shook her head and said, "Sanshi, the main purpose of this large-scale operation is to provide medical protection for Instructor Jiang. Instructor Jiang saved Xiaoya's life, and besides, Senior Sister is now an investor in our Tang Sect. This is what we should do, and we shouldn't accept money."

Xu Sanshi sighed and said, "Beibei, the Tang Clan needs money to develop. Let's strengthen the Tang Clan first."

Beibei nodded.

Now, leveraging the cooperative relationship between the academy and the three great empires, the Tang Sect has successfully sold its unique soul tools. In just a few years, the Tang Sect will be able to rise again and reclaim its former glory!

"Everyone should remain vigilant. Although we haven't seen any unusual activity yet, we still cannot let our guard down! We can't let even a mosquito get away with it!"

Everyone answered in unison, "Understood!"

On the ninth floor of the Shrek Grand Hotel in Shrek City, Princess Xu Jiu of the Star Luo Empire stood by the window for a long time, looking at the fully armed Shrek Academy students, her eyes flashing with a solemn light.

"Grandma Manyi, Shrek Academy is getting stronger and stronger!"

After a long pause, he sighed, his tone tinged with a mix of seriousness and envy.

Standing behind her, Nebula Douluo Manyi nodded and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Shrek Academy, which has been around for ten thousand years, was originally the number one Soul Master Academy on the continent. Now their Soul Guidance Department has developed further, and their research on Soul Guidance Devices is almost approaching the level of the Sun Moon Empire."

Shrek Academy is powerful and has a deep foundation; this is a fact known to all forces on the entire Douluo Continent.

However, because Shrek Academy has only been an academy for the past ten thousand years without expanding or aligning itself with any empire, even though Shrek Academy is known to be powerful, the major empires do not harbor hostility towards Shrek.

After all, if they were hostile to Shrek Academy, they would be forcing Shrek to side with other empires.

After a long while, she drew back the curtains, turned around, and walked towards the door.

"The Sun Moon Empire has been much more peaceful lately, but I always feel that they are lying low and waiting for an opportunity. On the other hand, the Heavenly Soul Empire has the Body Sect joining in, and the Body Sect has recently become closely associated with Shrek Academy. Only the Fighting Spirit Empire is not a threat. It's really a headache."

After opening the door, Xu Jiujiu walked out of the hotel room, took the soul-guided elevator downstairs, and headed towards Shrek Academy.

Today is the day Shrek Academy will treat Jiang Ming. Apart from the Immortal Doctor Douluo Wang Xian'er, who is allowed to enter the Sea God Pavilion, no one else, including herself, is allowed to enter.

However, even if you can't get into the Sea God Pavilion, you can still at least have the prestige of observing it from Sea God Island.

When they left the hotel, Xu Jiujiu ran into Princess Vina of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

They were all old friends and old rivals. They greeted each other with a few sweet, fake smiles, then subtly probed for information, and finally stopped there, walking together towards Shrek Academy.

Today, the outer courtyard of Shrek Academy is closed for the entire day. All students, from first to sixth grade, including teachers, are staying in Shrek Square for meditation.

This is the opinion of the elders.

With today's lineup, once the treatment begins, it will inevitably draw together the vital energy of heaven and earth within a radius of several miles, or even tens of miles.

This spiritual energy might not be of much use to Soul Masters at the Soul Saint level or above, but for students in the outer academy from the first to the sixth year, it's enough to save them a month of meditation and cultivation.

As they passed Shrek Square, Xu Jiujiu and Vina exchanged a glance.

Shrek Square underwent a renovation and was expanded after the college became wealthy.

Even with the expanded area, Shrek Square was still packed with students.

Students from all six grades sat in rows, numbering nearly a thousand!
You should know that being able to enter Shrek Academy means that these people have reached level 15 in soul power before the age of twelve!

Even the royal academies of their two great empires couldn't match this level of student quality.

Moreover, the dozens of teachers protecting the students next to the square all had at least a Soul Emperor cultivation level! Most of them were Soul Saints!
"I'm so envious."

After a long while, he glanced at the square and said quietly.

If the students trained by Shrek Academy can be used by the Star Luo Empire, the continent will surely be unified by the Star Luo Empire within a hundred years, and even the Sun Moon Empire will not be able to stop it!
Princess Vina had the same idea, but she added a step to her plan: to reclaim the Douling Empire, since the Douling Empire was originally a branch that split off from the Tiandou Empire.

But it is clear that both princesses' ideas were unrealistic.

Shrek Academy has been able to stand for ten thousand years not only because of its strong foundation and strength, but also because it has maintained a completely neutral stance among the major empires.

Otherwise, over the past ten thousand years, it would have been targeted by various empires, both openly and covertly, countless times, and it would never have prospered to its current state.

Vina shook her head and said, "Even if we envy these students, it has nothing to do with us now."

Xu Jiujiu smiled and said, "Yes, but they can have connections once they graduate."

Shrek Academy will not send students to other empires under the academy's name while they are enrolled; that's a major taboo. However, where students go after graduation is their personal choice. This applies not only to outer academy students but also to inner academy disciples.

Vina and Xu Jiujiu exchanged a smile: "It's up to each of us."

The two did not linger in the square, but continued walking towards the direction of Poseidon Lake.

When crossing the Sea God Lake, neither princess relied on their own cultivation to forcibly cross it, but instead chose to use a flying soul tool. A Soul Saint cultivation level was sufficient for brief periods of flight. Xu Jiujiu, seven or eight years ago, during her competition with Jiang Ming, already possessed the cultivation of a late-stage Soul King. Now, seven or eight years later, with the resources and nurturing of the Star Luo Empire's royal family, reaching Soul Saint cultivation was no problem.

As for Vina, she was already a Soul Emperor during the competition three years ago. With the dual resources of the Body Sect and the Heavenly Soul Empire, even though Vina was several years younger than Xu Jiujiu, there was no doubt that her cultivation had reached the Soul Saint level.

Of course, even if both of them can estimate each other's cultivation level, it doesn't mean they should reveal it.

Having a flying soul tool but not using it, and then forcibly crossing the Sea God Lake by releasing your martial soul is a foolish act.

It's worth mentioning, however, that the flying soul tools used by the two were both produced by the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy, and they bore the mark of being produced by the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy.

This means that both of them have a cooperative relationship with Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Device.

With the help of the flying soul tool, the two quickly crossed the Sea God Lake and arrived at the Sea God Island.

"Princess Jiujiu, Princess Vina."

When Han Ruoruo saw Princess Jiujiu and Princess Vina arrive at Seagod Island, she gracefully came over to greet them.

Originally, this was supposed to be the job of Zhang Lexuan, the senior disciple of the inner court, but Zhang Lexuan needed to stay by Jiang Ming's side. Currently, among the disciples of the inner court who are still in the academy, the disciple with the highest cultivation and the best personality is Han Ruoruo.

Although Han Ruoruo is not qualified to enter the Sea God Pavilion, her cultivation level has just broken through to the Title Douluo level, so she is definitely qualified to receive the two princesses.

Without exchanging many words, Han Ruoruo led the two princesses directly to the prepared location.

Even princesses, who are allowed to visit the Seagod Island, must do so from designated locations to avoid any accidents.

After the two princesses followed Han Ruoruo to the destination, another distinguished guest arrived on the nearby Sea God Lake.

No, they are not distinguished guests, but healing-type Soul Masters who have come to participate in the treatment process.

Two healing-type titled Douluo, along with the previously agreed-upon and those found in the past six months, making a total of ten healing-type Soul Douluo, arrived at Seagod Island accompanied by Yan Shaozhe.

"Everyone, Elder Zhuang and the Immortal Physician Douluo are already inside preparing, please!"

Yan Shaozhe escorted the person to the outside of the Sea God Pavilion, then flew away.

Besides these healing-type Soul Masters, there are two other very important groups of people he needs to personally greet.

Xu Jiujiu and Vina sat in the pavilion that had been prepared in advance, with someone in charge of preparing tea, or rather, keeping an eye on the two princesses to prevent them from wandering off.

"Shrek Academy has really gone all out this time. Healing-type Soul Douluo powerhouses are extremely rare, and they've brought in ten of them, including two Title Douluo who are healers—they are revered as national heroes in our Heavenly Soul Empire."

Vina reached out and picked up the teacup, taking a small sip of the top-grade spiritual tea that Elder Zhuang had personally cultivated.

Even though she was a princess of the Heavenly Soul Empire, it was a rare treat for her to drink tea of ​​this caliber.

After a long pause, he did the same and chuckled, "Yes, Shrek Academy's foundation is indeed strong, but that's the reputation Shrek has accumulated over ten thousand years. My Star Luo Empire's Medical Immortal Douluo was originally in seclusion, but when he learned that Shrek needed a healing-type Soul Master, he ended his seclusion and rushed over, staying at Shrek for half a year to observe Jiang Ming's injuries."

The conversation seemed ordinary, merely stating some facts, but even the inner court disciples serving tea and water to the two princesses could sense the tension within it.

Upon hearing this, Vina smiled faintly and said, "That must be a lot of trouble for Senior Healing Immortal Douluo. Unlike my Heavenly Soul Empire, which lacks healing-type Soul Masters with the cultivation of Super Douluo, we can only rely on the Poison Undying Sect Master to provide assistance."

"Really."

After a long while, their eyes narrowed slightly, and the two smiled, about to continue their sharp exchange, when they saw many more figures appear on the Sea God Lake not far away.

Previously, healing-type Soul Masters arrived one by one, but these people came in large groups, and from a distance, it was almost effortless to determine which faction they belonged to.

Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School!
As the wealthiest sect on the entire continent, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's extravagant wealth was blatantly obvious. At the very front, the sect leader, Ning Jie, stood atop a Level 8 flying soul tool, the latest and most advanced technology developed by Shrek Academy!
An eighth-level flying soul tool! You must know that even Elder Xuan, and even Jiang Ming who wasn't seriously injured, only used an eighth-level flying soul tool.

Ning Jie, due to the limitations of his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul, could only maintain his soul power cultivation at the level of Soul Saint at level 79.

A Soul Saint using an eighth-level flying soul tool is too extravagant!

Moreover, judging from its appearance, it is a modified level 8 flying soul tool. It not only has the functions of a flying soul tool, but also has some of the capabilities of a defensive soul tool and an offensive soul tool, making it very comprehensive.

Of course, such a comprehensive flight soul tool will naturally be expensive.

Ten million gold soul coins!
"The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is really rich!"

Xu Jiujiu's beautiful eyes held a hint of passion.

During the competition, as a top auctioneer at the Starlight Auction House, she auctioned a level-nine soul tool, the God Sealing Platform, and a 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, and the transaction price was only a little over 100 million gold soul coins.

The flying soul tool that the sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is standing on costs tens of millions of gold soul coins.

That's outrageously extravagant!
Unfortunately, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is not located within her Star Luo Empire, otherwise...
Soon, accompanied by Yan Shaozhe, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School members landed on Seagod Island.

Ning Jie was at the front, chatting and laughing with Yan Shaozhe. Beside him was an old man named Ning Yuan, whose cultivation level was as high as level seventy-nine!
Using "Gundam" to describe a level 79 soul power cultivation in the Sea God Pavilion sounds a bit strange, but in reality, this is already the highest level of cultivation that a Soul Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can achieve.

Behind Ning Jie and Ning Yuan was Ning Tian, ​​who was still in the inner academy and had not yet graduated.

Although Ning Tian's martial soul has evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, she is still quite young, only in her early twenties, and as a support-type soul master, her cultivation is relatively more difficult.

Even so, she is now a support-type Soul Master at the level of a six-ring Soul Emperor!

Besides Ning Tian, ​​there were six other Soul Emperor-level Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters, all of whom were either middle-aged or elderly.

The difficulty of cultivating support-type Soul Masters is too great. The lineup of these two Soul Saints and seven Soul Emperors already represents more than 70% of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's current resources!
Why would Ning Jie be willing to bring so many of his clansmen to participate in this treatment program? Was it simply out of gratitude?
No, or rather, not entirely!

As the saying goes, it's better to offer help in times of need than to add flowers to brocade.

Jiang Ming has fully matured, making it virtually impossible for them to offer help in times of need. However, they can still offer assistance when things are already going well. Moreover, given Jiang Ming's severe injuries, even if the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School doesn't offer help in times of need, it would be far better than offering assistance when things are already going well.

Moreover, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's actions this time are not solely for Jiang Ming's sake.

The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's wealth largely comes from its merchant guilds, and now that Zhang Lexuan's guilds are growing larger, some conflicts of interest have arisen. Directly confronting Zhang Lexuan, who has Shrek Academy backing her, is clearly unwise; cooperation and mutual benefit are the better approach.

After helping out in this way, there will obviously be some advantages in future negotiations for mutually beneficial cooperation.

"Sect Leader Ning, please!"

Yan Shaozhe, as always, escorted the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School and others into the Sea God Pavilion.

But before they could get the person inside, more people arrived.

Dean Xianlin'er of the Soul Guidance Department led the four of them to land on Seagod Island.

The person in the lead was none other than Gongyang Mo, who had already graduated from the inner court of Shrek Academy and was now the head of a clan!
Gongyang Mo looked at Yan Shaozhe and waved, saying, "Dean, it's been a long time."

Yan Shaozhe smiled in response: "It really has been a long time. You are now the patriarch of the Rainbow Dragon Clan. Time really flies."

Hearing Yan Shaozhe and Gongyang Mo's conversation, the members of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School couldn't help but turn their heads.

The Rainbow Dragon Martial Soul is a powerful martial soul with auxiliary effects that are almost comparable to their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul.

However, after Ning Rongrong, the ancestor of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, evolved the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda ten thousand years ago, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School basically gained the upper hand over the Rainbow Dragon Family, since there was no precedent for the Rainbow Dragon Martial Soul to break through to the seventh ring.

Moreover, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's strength lies not only in its martial spirit but also in its absolute advantage in business. In this respect, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School completely overwhelms the Rainbow Dragon Clan. Therefore, the Rainbow Dragon Clan is not well-known on the Douluo Continent.

But things are different now. The Rainbow Dragon Clan has produced a clan leader whose cultivation has broken through to the seventh ring!

"This must be Gongyang Mo, the new patriarch of the Rainbow Dragon Clan. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Ning Jie took the initiative to greet them, and his gaze silently swept over the three people behind Gongyang Mo: a middle-aged man, a middle-aged beautiful woman, and an old man.

Those who can participate in this plan must be Soul Masters with a Soul Emperor cultivation level or above. In other words, the Rainbow Dragon Clan, including Gongyang Mo, only sent four Soul Masters with a Soul Emperor cultivation level or above this time. In addition, considering Gongyang Mo's relationship with Shrek Academy and Jiang Ming, these four people represent at least 80% of the Rainbow Dragon Clan's resources!

Are there only five Rainbow Dragon Martial Soul Masters with a cultivation level of Soul Emperor or higher?
