Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 803 Settling the Soul Beasts, Female CEO Zhang Lexuan

Compared to directly absorbing a soul ring, turning the Evil Lord into a soul spirit is actually the choice that maximizes benefits.

To understand this, consider the example of the Snow Empress. A single spirit ring can directly summon the Snow Empress to descend, and she herself can use all her spirit skills. This is much stronger than a 100,000-year spirit ring granting her only two spirit skills.

However, Jiang Ming still chose to kill the Evil Lord directly.

Transforming the Evil Lord into Soul Power maximizes the increase in strength, but this guy is a very unstable factor.

The Evil Eye Tyrant is characterized by evil and darkness, and possesses terrifyingly powerful mental strength.

In this situation, if the evil lord secretly sabotages him, the trouble will be considerable.

Moreover, can the Evil Lord be compared to the Snow Empress?

Xue Di is his wife now, their souls are intertwined. You have big eyes and you think you can compare to her? What a joke!
"As for you, just wait to die. With my current strength, I can kill you very quickly, and you won't suffer much."

Jiang Ming patted the frozen Evil Lord, a faint smile appearing on his lips.

Of course, Jiang Ming did not intend to kill the Evil Lord now; there was still some time.

It would be safer to wait until the elves awaken and the small world is repaired before dragging out the evil lord and killing him.

Since his impulsive act last time, when he originally intended to practice against the Evil Lord but suddenly became obsessed with killing him and putting all the elves into a deep sleep, including the Snow Empress, he has become more cautious in dealing with the Evil Lord.

Even though his strength has improved a lot now.

If you have the time, try to be at your peak condition when doing this; it's a safer approach.

He was also traumatized by a year of being bedridden and in a wheelchair; otherwise, given his temper back then, he would have directly attacked the Evil Lord by now!
Jiang Ming turned around, his powerful mental and soul forces mixing to weave a large golden net that enveloped the Evil Lord's entire body.

With one layer of ice and two layers of binding, and the Snow Empress also strengthened the ice seal, the Evil Lord can no longer release his spiritual power and soul power.

After doing all this, Jiang Ming turned around and glanced at the environment inside the ice and snow barrier.

Because of Mengbing and Xiaobai, and because this place was originally where Xuedi lived, the ice and snow power contained here was extremely rich, forming a large enough defensive barrier.

Most of the spirit beasts in the glacier had escaped into the barrier, and there were not many casualties.

Jiang Ming slightly raised his hand, and a beam of light shot out from a glacier, hovering in front of him.

Sky-Piercing Spear!
However, the once incredibly sharp Sky-Piercing Spear was now covered in cracks, looking extremely fragile, as if it would shatter into countless fragments at the slightest touch.

"Ugh"

Jiang Ming sighed softly, looking at the Sky-Piercing Spear covered in cracks, feeling a pang of heartache.

The Sky-Piercing Spear had been with him for many years, gradually evolving from a peak level eight soul tool to a level nine soul tool, and then improving in quality until it became a peak level nine soul tool, a semi-divine artifact.
Now, the aura released by the Sky-Piercing Spear is not even as strong as when it was a level 8 peak soul tool.

Seemingly sensing Jiang Ming's emotions, the Sky-Piercing Spear trembled slightly, as if trying to comfort him.

Jiang Ming smiled and said, "Old buddy, you won't just break like this. I'll go find some materials and help you repair it."

Just as a person can repair his body, so too can the Sky-Piercing Spear.

The materials needed to repair the Sky-Piercing Spear must be at least level nine. Even that's not enough; it also needs to be enhanced by the power of the small world, and it may even need to be hammered.

However, these are not major problems for Jiang Ming right now.

Of course, all of this requires one prerequisite: that all the elves must first awaken.

Whether it's repairing the small world, increasing strength, or fixing the Sky-Piercing Spear, the fastest way to achieve this is to awaken the elves.

“I have reinforced the seal on the Evil Lord, so you two don’t need to worry about him anymore. As for the remaining divine power outside, it will take some time to completely remove it. Let’s maintain this protective shield for a while.”

Jiang Ming said softly.

These soul beasts in the small world need the protection of the shield; otherwise, once they go outside, the residual divine power can still pose a deadly threat to them.

However, this situation cannot continue indefinitely. When he repairs the small world, it may undergo significant changes. At that time, it would be best to move these soul beasts to another location.

Jiang Ming frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then a flash of inspiration struck him.

Let's put the soul beast somewhere else. There seems to be a place in the academy where we can put it!
Shrek Academy Outer Courtyard, Beast Fighting Area.

Jiang Ming was slightly surprised when the Beast King Bow Longlong came to find him.

Jiang Ming had only been to the Beast Fighting Zone once, when he took the promotion exam in his first year of the Foreign Languages ​​Academy; otherwise, he had basically never been here.

"Xiao Ming, what brings you to the Beast Fighting Area to see me?"

Gong Changlong's expression was somewhat solemn.

If it's someone else who needs his help, he doesn't feel any pressure, after all, he is also a Title Douluo.

Ke Jiangming.
With Jiang Ming's current strength, he could slap down all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion. With such strength, what help could a mere Title Douluo like him offer?
Jiang Ming said softly, "Elder Gong, there's no need to be nervous. I just came to discuss something with you. I have some soul beasts that need to be temporarily stored in the Beast Fighting Area. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Gong Changlong's solemn expression immediately relaxed.

He thought it was something serious, but it was just about storing soul beasts.

Gong Changlong patted his chest and laughed, "So you want to store soul beasts? If it were anything else, I'm afraid I can't help you, but when it comes to soul beasts, I'm not called the Beast King for nothing. Xiaoming, how many soul beasts do you want to store? I'll clear some space for you!"

Jiang Ming blinked, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Elder Gong, the number of soul beasts I need to entrust to you might be a bit too many, and their strength might be a bit too strong."

Elder Gong was taken aback and said, "There are quite a few. How many? Are they strong enough to be ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts?!"

There are indeed many soul beasts in the Beast Fighting Area, but most of them are hundred-year or thousand-year soul beasts, and there are also some ten-year soul beast cubs, but there are really not many ten-thousand-year soul beasts.

Jiang Ming nodded, and then used his mental power to show Gong Changlong the types, cultivation levels, and numbers of the soul beasts that needed to be housed in the small world.

Over the years, Jiang Ming hasn't actually released many soul beasts into his small world. After all, he's either in the Sun Moon Empire or taking the God Assessment, so he simply doesn't have much time.

Even so, the number of soul beasts in the small world is not small. And in terms of strength...
"What?! A ten-thousand-year-old ice jade scorpion? A dark gold dinosaur? And a fifty-thousand-year-old black armored giant rhinoceros?"

When Gong Changlong saw the long list of soul beast names and cultivation levels that Jiang Ming displayed using his mental power, he was completely stunned.

Even though he is known as the Beast King, there are definitely no soul beasts in his fighting arena!

The Ice Jade Scorpion and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear are both from the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts! Although the Black Armored Giant Rhinoceros is inferior in terms of species, with 50,000 years of cultivation, even a Soul Douluo would probably be no match for it, and even ordinary Title Douluos would be helpless against it.

Aside from the three conspicuous soul beasts he spotted at a glance, the other soul beasts were rather ordinary, but in terms of quantity.
This is more than the total number of all the soul beasts in the entire Beast Fighting Zone!

Moreover, its quality absolutely crushes the soul beasts in the Beast Fighting Zone!
"Xiao Ming, well... I'm afraid I can't control these soul beasts."

Although Gong Changlong felt somewhat embarrassed, it was indeed the truth.

He could suppress other spirit beasts in the Beast Fighting Zone, but these ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion and fifty-thousand-year-old Black Armored Giant Rhinoceros, without exaggeration, these two spirit beasts alone, when combined, are comparable to a Title Douluo!
Hearing what Gong Changlong said, Jiang Ming shook his head and said, "Elder Gong, I will suppress their power. You only need to take care of feeding them. It won't take too long."

Once the elves awaken, the repair process of the small world will be quick. Jiang Ming estimates that it will take about a few months to complete the repair, and then the soul beasts can be put into the small world.

"Suppressing strength."

Gong Changlong frowned, thought carefully for a moment, and slowly said, "Even if you suppress your strength, you still have too many soul beasts. If you want to store them all, I'm afraid you'll need to expand the Beast Fighting Area. No, expanding within the academy is too troublesome. How about this, I'll simply lead people to build another Beast Fighting Area outside the academy! Anyway, the academy has money now, so building a Beast Fighting Area won't be a big problem."

Jiang Ming needed to store far too many soul beasts, to the point that the Beast Fighting Area couldn't accommodate them all. This was comparable to the number of soul beasts in some soul beast gathering places.

To properly settle these spirit beasts, the only option is to build another fighting arena outside the academy.

"That's fine too. After all, it's to help me store my soul beasts, so I'll cover the construction costs of this beast fighting area."

Upon hearing this, Gong Changlong quickly said, "How can that be! Building the fighting arena isn't a one-time thing. Once you've used it, the academy can continue using it. How can we take your money?"

Jiang Ming: "Okay"

Gong Changlong waved his hand and said, "Alright, it's settled then. I'll go find Elder Lin and Elder Song to allocate the funds. I'll call you when it's completed. Tsk, I've never actually seen the Ice Jade Scorpion and Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear anywhere else except in the far north and the Star Dou Great Forest."

With that, Gong Changlong flew directly to the inner courtyard to ask Elder Lin and Elder Song for funds to build the beast fighting area.

Jiang Ming watched Gong Changlong's departing figure and shook his head with a slight smile.

"The soul beasts have been settled. Next, we need to revive the elves and purchase materials to repair the Sky-Piercing Spear. Hmm, we'll still need some rare and precious materials."

Because of the Gold of Life, Little Spirit was able to awaken before the other spirits were still asleep.

Even now, Xiaoling is using herself as the core to help the other elves wake up quickly, but the process is somewhat slow.

We need more targeted energy!

Think about it.
On Xiaoguang's side, his teacher and senior brother all possess powerful positive energy.

Xiao An can draw some of the Evil Lord's dark energy and let him put it to good use.

Xiao Bing's side has more: Xue Di, Ling Luo Chen, Xiao Bai, and Meng Bing.
Xiao Lian, Ma Xiao Tao, and even Gong Lao are all titled Douluo with fire attributes.

Xiao Ling has woken up.

As for Xiao Feng, Old Song should be able to help.

Little Huang, Elder Xuan's earth power is not a problem.

There are simply too few powerful Soul Masters in the areas of space and time. On Shrek Academy's side, there's only one Time Douluo, whose popular Martial Soul is the Clock of Time. Cao Jinxuan also has the Clock of Time Martial Soul, but his current cultivation level is so low that it's uncertain whether he's even a Soul Emperor, so it's practically useless.

With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Ming returned to Poseidon Island.

"Sister Lexuan."

Jiang Ming arrived at the lakeside cabin and called out to Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan stopped her conversation with the other women and got up to walk towards Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming smiled and rubbed his right thumb and forefinger together: "Sister Le Xuan, give me some gold soul coins. The Sky-Piercing Spear is almost broken. I need to buy some level nine materials to repair it."

Although level nine materials are generally difficult to purchase with gold soul coins, if there is a situation where they need to be purchased with gold soul coins, does that mean that he, the honorary master of the Sea God Pavilion, has no money and would resort to robbery?

Hearing Jiang Ming's words, Zhang Lexuan blinked her beautiful eyes and said softly, "Buy level nine materials? If you need level nine materials to repair the Sky-Piercing Spear, just have your subordinates do it. Why do you have to buy them yourself?"

As she spoke, Zhang Lexuan took out a state-of-the-art long-distance sound transmission soul tool from her storage soul tool.

"President, what are your orders?"

A female voice came from the other end of the voice transmission device, her voice filled with excitement and agitation.

Zhang Lexuan said softly, "Go and inform the major leaders of the Chamber of Commerce to increase the purchase of level 9 materials and send all the existing level 9 materials in the warehouse to the academy as quickly as possible."

Inside a luxurious building in Shrek City, a young woman in her early twenties heard the command from Zhang Lexuan through her soul-guided communication device and immediately replied, "Understood!"

She then immediately went to the Chamber of Commerce's communications department and used various means to spread Zhang Lexuan's orders to the Chamber's branches across the mainland in the shortest possible time.

The massive chamber of commerce that Zhang Lexuan had established more than a decade ago immediately began operating at full capacity after receiving Zhang Lexuan's order.

On Poseidon Island, Jiang Ming was slightly taken aback when he saw Zhang Lexuan acting like a domineering female CEO.

Zhang Lexuan said softly, "It's too slow for you to collect materials by yourself. I'll have the Chamber of Commerce buy them. Also, there are some level nine materials in the Chamber of Commerce's warehouse and the treasure vault of the Academy's Soul Guidance Department. If you need them, I'll get them. Is there anything else?"

"Forehead"

Jiang Ming blinked and continued, "There are also some rare and precious materials of various attributes. The elves are still asleep, and I need rare and precious materials of corresponding attributes to awaken them."

Zhang Lexuan nodded slightly and said, "I had thought of that before, so when I was collecting rare and precious materials to help you heal, I paid special attention to it. The items are currently stored in the academy's treasury. I'll take you to get them."
