Peerless: The Evil Soul Master's Guide to Saving the World

Chapter 345 Gossip, Jiang Nannan's Substitute
"It's a pity... I didn't run into you."

Dai Huabin looked at the Shrek Academy members and clenched his fists.

Although he could only watch helplessly as his brother went to his death, he did not blame Shrek Academy. The academy had its reasons for not intervening. Now that he had participated in the Divine Exam and his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, he had the ability to avenge his father and brother.

In short... Shrek, loyalty!
Where should we eat?

"All you do is eat, you glutton!"

"Sword fanatic, what are you doing?"

"..."

The people of the Sun Moon Empire, however, all had relaxed expressions and even started discussing dinner...

"Damn it!"

Beibei stopped the enraged Dai Huabin and calmly advised, "If you want revenge, go to the stage. Even if you are killed by the guards of the Sun Moon Empire here, no one will say anything."

Several regular team members stared at the departing Royal Academy of the Sun Moon Empire, their eyes flashing with thoughtful expressions.

"Your legs have gotten longer..."

Xu Sanshi looked at Jiang Nannan in the crowd and almost drooled.

Not only are her legs long, but she's also much prettier!
She wore a pale yellow dress that revealed her fair and slender legs. Her waist was slender and tied with a ribbon. She was no longer indifferent when facing him. Instead, she occasionally chimed in with something amidst the laughter and conversation of the people from the Sun Moon Empire. Her stunningly beautiful face was captivating.

"What are you looking at!"

In the reserve team, a girl with a cold and beautiful expression, slightly shorter than the others, and somewhat resembling a loli, grabbed Xu Sanshi's ear and glared at him angrily.

"Oh dear, I was wrong..."

Xu Sanshi cried and was dragged away by the girl.

Everyone looked at Xu Sanshi with strange expressions.

"He's already a Contra Master, isn't he? Is he henpecked?" Xie Huanyue asked blankly.

"Maybe..." Lan Susu whispered.

Being selected as a core disciple of the academy to participate in the Divine Examination signifies the importance of one's position within Shrek Academy.

But he was manipulated by a girl from an ordinary family.

And most importantly...

"Don't you think Tian Tian looks a lot like Jiang Nan Nan, even though she's a little shorter?" Lan Su Su whispered.

"..."

Everyone looked over, their faces filled with shock.

Holy crap, it really is!

"I see!"

"No wonder Senior San Shi is so outstanding, and so many people in the academy like him, yet he actively pursued Tian Tian..."

"Alright, enough talk, let's prepare for tomorrow's match. In this knockout round, Hua Bin and Zhu Lu, you'll be leading five reserve team members into the game," Bei Bei interrupted the crowd's gossip and said softly.

“Yes, Senior Bei Bei!” Dai Huabin quickly replied.

Their respect for Bei Bei wasn't just because he was the captain, but also because of his terrifying strength... He was a Title Douluo, even comparable to a Super Douluo. Before setting off, when the team was challenging each other, the sheer power Bei Bei unintentionally exuded made them tremble with fear.

"By the way, don't reveal your true strength unless absolutely necessary," Bei Bei said calmly, patting his shoulder.

"Yes! The mere Rhinoceros Armor Sect can be dealt with with three or four tenths of our strength." Dai Huabin hurriedly patted his chest to assure him.

Looking at the beautiful woman beside him, he was filled with mixed emotions.

If it weren't for Shrek Academy's invitation, and the fact that he was the only remaining member of the Dai family's core bloodline, the Zhu family would have been reluctant to release Zhu Lu—Shrek, loyalty!
His gaze swept around, carrying a hint of arrogance and confidence.

This is his chance, and the chance for the White Tiger Dai family, to wash away their shame!
Zhu Lu leaned against him, her beautiful eyes gentle.

Like a harmonious zither and lute playing in perfect harmony.

Beibei sighed deeply as she watched the young couple. Seeing Xu Sanshi being dragged away by Tiantian and given a lecture, Beibei naturally knew what her brother was thinking, and Tiantian certainly knew too—after all, many seniors in the academy, upon seeing her, immediately remarked that she looked like Jiang Nannan.

Everyone knew perfectly well that Xu Sanshi was using Tiantian as a substitute for Jiang Nannan.

Tian Tian also saw the former's talent and future potential, but kept quiet about it.

After all, nobody's a fool...

"Xiaoya..."

Watching the departing figures of the Sun Moon Empire Academy.

He took a deep breath.

As his strength recovered, he became more and more composed, and over the years, he gradually came to understand a truth—strength is everything.

His strength allows him to maintain composure, broaden his mind, and remain elegant in the face of adversity, rarely breaking his defenses.

During these three years, while cultivating on Poseidon Island, he also honed his mind and claimed that he had changed a lot.

Only that tall, lively figure could make his long-dormant heart tremble slightly.

……

A faint light appeared in the sky.

The Sun and Moon Empire Square was already packed with people.

The center of the field resembles several suspended islands, with a metallic rhombus shape below, like a pyramid about to fall over.

The surrounding spacious seats can accommodate nearly a million spectators, and the live broadcast is transmitted to tens of millions of people in all provinces of the Sun Empire. The Starlink Railway connects all territories of the Sun Empire and links everyone's information, making communication more convenient.

The venue was packed with people.

And the college's rest area.

"Aotian, over here!" Vina jumped up excitedly and waved to the crowd.

Long Aotian and a group of disciples from the Snow Demon Sect found their designated spot, a rest tent. Although it was a temporary structure, the entire room was equipped with an eighth-level soul tool, complete with amenities such as drinks.

However, facing hundreds of academy teams, the Sun Moon Empire generously provided hundreds of [Rest Tents]. Compared to previous competitions, where lower-level academies or those eliminated in the first round could only stand and squeeze in, there was a significant difference.

"Waaah... the drink tastes good."

"Wow, they even have a light screen broadcasting the stadium? It's magnified so many times, it's high-definition viewing! It's so advanced, no wonder it's the city of soul tools."

"and this……"

"Everyone be quiet!"

Long Aotian frowned.

"Don't look so ignorant!"

"..."

The crowd quieted down and began to communicate verbally.

Long Aotian: "..."

"Aotian, soul tools can actually be used in daily life!" Vina's beautiful eyes widened as she curiously touched this and that.

"Actually, it already existed, but nowadays, Mingdu has truly taken the practical application of soul tools to the extreme." Long Aotian nodded slightly.

“The Sun Moon Empire has not stagnated in the past three years; on the contrary, it has made rapid progress. There are even many research and developments that we are unaware of, and they have not revealed them. So this competition... may not be easy at all,” Mu Xue said softly.

"There can't possibly be a Title Douluo, can there?" Although Long Aotian agreed with Mu Xue's words, he still couldn't help but retort.

Man as his name suggests.

He's also very arrogant. If, even with divine assistance, he still can't defeat the Sun Moon Empire, then...
