Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 907 The Life of a Soul Beast is Also a Life

"First, all the beast corpses outside Shrek City belong to Shrek City, and the soul bones and soul rings also belong to Shrek. Is there any problem with that?"

Di Tian couldn't hold back any longer when he heard the first condition. He took a few deep breaths and listened as Chen Ping continued.

"Secondly, any soul bones from the Star Dou Forest that are over ten thousand years old and still intact belong to us."

Di Tian clenched his fists so tightly they cracked, his aura rising and falling repeatedly, seemingly about to erupt.

He took several deep breaths and put in a lot of effort to mentally prepare himself before he could forcefully suppress his anger.

Di Tian suppressed his humiliation and anger and said, "I can agree to half of the first condition: the soul ring and soul bone can belong to Shrek City, but the corpse cannot."

Chen Ping paused for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded: "Sure, we weren't really interested in those corpses anyway, we were mainly after the soul rings and soul bones, so that's fine."

"The second one is absolutely impossible."

"What I just said was that, out of consideration for your technology, Star Dou Forest can compensate you humans for the losses you suffered in this beast tide, not that I'll give you the entire Star Dou Forest!"

Di Tian glared at Chen Ping as if he wanted to devour him alive.

Even Elder Xuan and Poison Undying almost lost their composure when they heard Chen Ping's conditions for the Lion Devouring the Sky. This kid didn't even give a price; he was already planning to take the life of the Star Dou Forest.

Chen Ping, however, appeared unhurried. Negotiations are usually about making an exorbitant demand first, and then bargaining.

"Is this price outrageous? Your Majesty, the Beast God, you must know that human life is of paramount importance. In our human world, human life is priceless!"

"These conditions are just a paltry sum of compensation. We can't let our soldiers, who fought so hard, bleed and weep again, can we?"

"You fart!"

Di Tian finally couldn't hold back any longer and cursed, "Let's not even talk about how much damage you humans caused to our soul beast world by using all sorts of new soul tools to defend the city. How many soul masters died in this siege?"

"In this beast tide, the number of soul beasts who died exceeded 200,000. Is it only your human lives that are priceless, while the lives of soul beasts are not?"

Upon hearing Di Tian's words, Chen Ping was startled, and immediately thought of a very famous slogan from his previous life abroad—"Brother Ni's life is also a life."
Shaking his head to clear his mind of these random thoughts, Chen Ping said, "This is a separate matter. Don't forget, this beast tide was ultimately initiated by your Soul Beast World attacking Shrek Academy."

"We also express our regret for the five 100,000-year-old soul beasts that died as the trigger for this beast tide. However, we have repeatedly emphasized before the war that this is clearly a conspiracy by the Holy Spirit Cult and the Sun Moon Empire. It is Your Majesty the Beast God who is concerned about the country and the people and for the survival of the soul beast world. You deliberately escalated this matter and want to fight a holy war with us."

"Your actions have not only severely heightened the vigilance of the major empires towards the Star Dou Forest, but have also made it highly likely that the Heavenly Soul Empire, which sent the Body Sect to aid us, has already been exposed to the slaughter of the Sun Moon Empire. How can such compensation be considered much!"

At this point, Chen Ping became so excited that his neck turned red, which made all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion respect him and admire his courage in arguing with reason, despite being the strongest person in the world, the Beast God Di Tian.

Only the experts from the Body Sect had shifting expressions, looking awkwardly like they were holding back their laughter.

Like someone who can't die from poison, Chen Ping's ability to lie through his teeth is now even more admirable.

What is this guy talking about.

Wasn't Huo Yuhao the one he sent to Heaven Dou City? The first thing this kid did upon landing was to use the silver dragon scales Chen Ping gave him to set up a large-scale teleportation array connecting Heaven Soul and Shrek City. In this way, not only could the people of Shrek receive timely assistance from the Body Sect, but if the Heaven Soul Empire were to reignite its war, Shrek could also rush to Heaven Soul's aid at the fastest speed, directly opening up a channel for transporting powerful individuals between the two places.

In this situation, Chen Ping was able to put on such a heartbroken look and demand compensation from Di Tian without giving an inch—that's quite a feat!

"One hundred ten-thousand-year soul bones, ten hundred-thousand-year soul bones, and one ferocious beast soul bone—this is my bottom line."

Di Tian gritted his teeth and said, "That ferocious beast soul bone was produced by a Soft Bone Charming Rabbit. It contains an invincible golden body and teleportation skills, and its quality is better than most ferocious beast soul bones."

"You can't absorb that many soul bones yourself. Stop now and don't test my limits."

The bones of a soft-boned, enchanting rabbit and a ferocious beast?
Chen Ping was taken aback when he heard the name. Was this the soul bone of Xiao Wu's father?

There are many contradictions in the original novel regarding the deaths of Xiao Wu's parents. Some say they were killed by the Spirit Hall, while others say they were eaten by Xiong Jun. However, it seems that the latter is more likely at present.

Chen Ping rolled his eyes and said, "What's it to you? I just like to use ten-thousand-year-old soul bones to make soup. Do you have a problem with that?"

"How about we double the price offered by His Majesty the Beast God? It's not easy for the seniors of the Body Sect to come all this way, so we should share some of their money with them."

Di Tian wanted to just walk away and continue launching the beast tide, but he suppressed his anger.

"Twice, that's the most we can do."

When he said this, Di Tian really did a lot of mental preparation before he could jump up and pin Chen Ping down with a Dragon God Claw, suppressing the urge to explode at Chen Ping.

It didn't care about the future of the Soul Beast World, or any threats whatsoever!
"The ones in front are enough, but how about you add a few more beast soul bones?"

Chen Ping tentatively made a bid, not daring to push Di Tian too far. So many soul bones were enough to significantly increase the combat power of the Shrek Academy's experts.

Two hundred ten-thousand-year-old soul bones are a minor matter; the key is those twenty one-hundred-thousand-year-old soul bones. The combat power boost they bring is enormous, not to mention the two ferocious beast-level soul bones.

That's all, take it or leave it.

Di Tian spat out a few words through gritted teeth.

At this moment, Chen Ping was afraid that Di Tian would really push him to the limit, so he nodded. More than two hundred soul bones that were over ten thousand years old were not bad, not to mention that he also received so many soul rings.

"The third one"

"And a third one?"

Di Tian's Dragon God Claw was already poised to strike, and it felt that it would be more worthwhile for Chen Ping to just explode directly.

"This condition is easy to solve. I need some silver dragon scales, naturally shed ones will do. Of course, if you have any extra black dragon scales, you can give me some too."
