Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

Chapter 152 Careful Consideration
……

the other side.

After leaving the Great Soul Arena, Zhu Zhuqing did not head towards Arou's courtyard, but instead wandered aimlessly through Soto City.

She knew that her decision today was irresponsible to the team, but she simply couldn't accept it.

Seeing that Dai Mubai's fighting spirit was aroused by Xuanming, she was actually quite happy at first, at least this guy did not completely give up.

But, adulterers!
She never expected Dai Mubai to say such a thing!

She took such a huge risk, chasing him all the way from Xingluo to Shrek Academy, hoping to work together with him, only to be met with such misunderstanding and insults...

"Little sister, why are you in such a remote place all alone so late?" A sudden voice interrupted Zhu Zhuqing's thoughts. The voice was magnetic and deep, but it carried a hint of malice.

Zhu Zhuqing snapped back to reality and saw a tall, middle-aged man with an unusually small face standing not far away, accompanied by a thin, sleazy man whose eyes revealed greed and malice.

"Get out!" Zhu Zhuqing snapped in disgust.

"Hmm?" The tall man frowned, his already ugly face becoming even more distorted with anger.

"Little sister, you are very rude."

"Tonight, your uncle will teach you what good manners are!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the soul rings on their bodies pulsed simultaneously, releasing powerful soul energy fluctuations, clearly indicating that they were two Soul Masters at the Soul Grandmaster level.

Zhu Zhuqing's expression changed drastically. Just as she was about to turn away, the thin man moved like lightning and instantly blocked her way.

Almost at the same moment, Zhu Zhuqing completed the Martial Soul Possession, and two yellow soul rings rose from her feet, emitting a faint light.

Sensing the considerable soul power fluctuations emanating from Zhu Zhuqing, both of them changed their expressions.

At this age and with this level of cultivation, could he possibly be a successor of some major sect?
For a moment, both of them felt a little regretful, but when they thought about the possibility of retaliation, a ruthless glint flashed in their eyes.

Once you've played with it, just dispose of it, and there won't be any trouble!

"You really shouldn't be walking outside alone so late at night."

Just then, a cold voice came from not far away, like a winter wind, making Zhu Zhuqing's eyes redden. It was a familiar and comforting voice.

"Kid, mind your own business!" the tall man threatened coldly, his tone full of menace.

"No!" The thin man's expression changed drastically, and a hint of red suddenly appeared in his yellow eyes, as if he had remembered something terrifying. "Bu Le was..."

A cold white light suddenly exploded, the deep black soul ring flashed slightly, and a burst of blood-red light erupted, tearing through the night sky like the scythe of death.

Zhu Zhuqing felt a sudden darkness before her eyes. When she regained her senses, the two lewd figures had vanished without a trace, leaving only a faint smell of blood and a chilling cold.

Xuanming retracted the blood spear. "It's getting late, you should get some rest."

“…Mm.” Zhu Zhuqing nodded gently, a warm feeling welling up in her heart, as if all the gloom had vanished at this moment.

……

After the Soul Battle ended, Xuanming rested in Soto City for two days. As expected, Qin Ming extended an invitation to Shrek Academy, hoping that they could join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Three Soul Saints and two Soul Emperors—this is a formidable force for any advanced Soul Master academy.

Although Flander was somewhat reluctant, he eventually agreed after being persuaded by Yu Xiaogang.

"So, we'll be classmates from now on?"

At lunchtime, Xuanming and his group had lunch together at the Soto Grand Hotel as usual, except that there were a few more people this time.

Upon hearing Ning Rongrong's news about Shrek Academy, Dugu Yan's expression began to betray her displeasure.

She had originally thought that these three girls would eventually be in Soto City and Shrek Academy, and that they would be returning to Tiandou City soon, so they would see each other less often in the future.

But Shrek Academy is actually going to merge into the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?
"Wouldn't we be seeing each other all the time from now on?" Dugu Yan asked. "Isn't it a bit too hasty for your teacher?"

"I think this is a very serious and solemn matter, and you should consider it carefully!"

“That’s something the dean should consider,” Ning Rongrong shrugged.

"I don't care."

The atmosphere at Shrek Academy right now feels like it's about to fall apart at any moment.

If it weren't for her friends Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing being there, and the fact that Tang San's hidden weapon techniques were of great value to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and her desire to establish further cooperation with Tang San and ideally win him over to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she would have run away long ago.

At first, she just planned to go out for a walk and relax. Joining Shrek Academy was just a spur-of-the-moment decision. If it weren't for the fact that Xuanming and the others had just left Tiandou City at that time, she would have gone to Tiandou Royal Academy.

"When are you planning to move?" Xuanming asked Arou.

"Would you like to come with me?"

“I…” Arou subconsciously looked at Xiaowu.

“Aunt Rou, we’re all adults now, you don’t need to keep an eye on us all the time,” Ning Rongrong said.

“Yes, Mom, you go ahead first, we’ll take our time later,” Xiao Wu said.

“Okay.” Arou nodded.

"I'll go settle in first. Xiao Wu, don't cause any trouble while I'm gone. Be good and listen to your teacher."

"Okay." Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue.

"Then let's pack up and set off tomorrow," Xuanming said.

After hiding for more than a month, Qian Renxue should have investigated the situation in Wuhun City to a certain extent, and she should stop bothering him from now on.

……

Shrek Academy.

"Xiao Gang, do you have other motives?"

With Ma Hongjun's encouragement, Flander, feeling much better, went to Yu Xiaogang and asked him about his doubts.

Last night, Qin Ming's invitation to him was just a joke. The boy knew very well what Shrek Academy meant to him. He said those things just to express how much he valued these junior students. After all, they had caught the attention of the teachers at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

However, Yu Xiaogang actually chimed in afterward, which Qin Ming didn't expect, nor did he.

Yu Xiaogang was actually the mastermind behind Shrek Academy joining the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

If it were before, he wouldn't have doubted what Yu Xiaogang said last night. However, recently, because of Xuanming, not only has Shrek Academy's teaching run into problems time and time again, but Ning Rongrong, that little devil, has also been finding opportunities to make sarcastic remarks. The key is that what she said was reasonable and well-founded. Although he had Ning Fengzhi's letter, it was only asking him to help correct Ning Rongrong's arrogant and spoiled princess temper. As for her arguing with Yu Xiaogang, he really couldn't get a word in edgewise.

"Flander, do you think Xuanming's strength is normal?" Yu Xiaogang asked.

Flanders was taken aback. "Normal?"

“According to Qin Ming, both of his martial souls have significant mutation defects, each more dangerous than the last. Under these circumstances, not only does his cultivation speed remain undiminished, but he is also far ahead of his peers, and his strength is beyond the norm. Don’t you have any doubts?” Yu Xiaogang said.

"This..." Flander was a little confused.

"What can you doubt about that?"

“His Blood Spear Martial Soul must have a cultivation method that no one knows about!” Yu Xiaogang affirmed.

"Haven't you always wanted to solve Ma Hongjun's martial soul mutation defect?"

“If I go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I will be able to intervene in Xuanming’s teaching and training, and naturally I will be able to find out how he did it.”

According to Qin Ming, Xuan Ming's beast spirit initially had a very high risk of going out of control, and it even went out of control in the training ground of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. His blood spear spirit was an even more dangerous spirit that would devour and plunder his own soul power and blood energy!
Under these circumstances, Xuanming's cultivation speed should be far behind that of his peers, but not only is it not slow, it is far ahead of his peers, and he also has that terrifying soul ring ratio, which is definitely a problem!
