Both have four soul rings and are at the Soul Master level.
but!
The four spirit rings hovering at Seele's feet were two purple and two black! Moreover, the two purple spirit rings were so black they were almost black!
Chapter 200 Beibei: Another big problem?
No one expected that this little girl, who looked quite young and even had a somewhat childish face, was actually a fourth-ring Soul Master who had reached level 40 or above!
Moreover, what made everyone present feel the most chills was the four spirit rings hovering at her feet!
Two purple, two black!
In the world of Soul Masters, two yellow and two purple rings are basically the standard age for the first four Soul Rings, but the girl in front of us wielding a black sickle has broken this common sense!
In their entire lives, they had seen countless geniuses in Shrek City, but they had never seen such a terrifying configuration of spirit rings!
The waiter, who had been hiding behind four thugs with an arrogant expression, was completely dumbfounded when he saw this scene.
His legs began to tremble uncontrollably, and a strong sense of panic and unease rose in his heart.
Although he wasn't a high-level Soul Master, he understood the significance of a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring.
Today, I think I've kicked a super steel plate that's not only hard, but also has spikes!
"What are you all standing there for?! What are you all doing?!"
The waiter suppressed his fear, his voice trembling with anger, and shouted at the four Soul Sect thugs blocking his way.
"Get her! Get to her now and take care of her!"
Hearing the waiter's urging, and considering that the waiter was of a relatively high status (otherwise he wouldn't have been able to command the thugs), the four Soul Sect thugs exchanged glances, all seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.
Faced with a monster possessing two ten-thousand-year soul rings, they actually had no desire to fight.
But there was nothing they could do; they were thugs hired by the hotel, paid to do something for someone else.
Now that they've come to this open space, they've turned around and run away without even fighting. They can forget about ever living in Shrek City again.
"Let's attack together! No matter how terrifying her soul ring configuration is, she's still just a fourth-ringed one! There are four of us; we can wear her down!"
One of the henchmen gritted his teeth, shouted to bolster his courage, and then lit up his soul ring first. He led the other three and attacked Seele in the center from four different directions at the same time!
Faced with the siege of four Soul Masters of the same level, Seele's face remained completely expressionless.
A dark glint flashed in her once clear eyes.
The second, dark purple thousand-year soul ring beneath Seele's feet suddenly emitted a dazzling light!
"Second Soul Skill, Shadow Sickle Strike!"
As Seele's cold voice fell, thick black smoke instantly billowed from the huge, black sickle in her hand!
Swish!
Seele's figure blurred instantly in place. The huge increase in movement speed brought by her second soul skill made her look like a ghostly black shadow moving through the daytime!
The four thugs didn't even see Seele's movements clearly. They only felt a blur before their eyes, and a pitch-black scythe carrying terrifying dark attributes tore through their defenses as if it were utterly destructive!
boom!boom!boom!boom!
The sickle struck the four of them precisely in the chest.
The moment they made contact, the domineering dark attribute damage erupted, not only causing them severe physical damage, but the special effect attached to the sickle was like a pump, instantly and significantly reducing their already meager soul power!
The entire exchange lasted less than five seconds!
Several cracking sounds and a huge impact were heard.
The four Soul Sect thugs who had just charged forward with such imposing momentum were sent flying backward like four broken sacks, even faster than when they arrived!
Several loud booms resounded.
The four men crashed heavily against the hotel lobby walls and surrounding tables, shattering porcelain and wood chips all over the floor.
They coughed up mouthfuls of blood, struggled a few times, and then collapsed to the ground, unable to fight.
The entire hall fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
Five seconds! One move!
Despite being four-ring Soul Masters, they were instantly killed in a four-on-one battle!
The waiter's face turned deathly pale as he looked at the thug lying on the ground groaning, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.
He staggered back a few steps until his back hit a cold pillar, leaving him nowhere to retreat. Only then did he look in horror at Seele, who was walking towards him step by step, carrying a sickle.
"You...you stay away!"
The waiter shouted in a panic. In his fear, he instinctively pulled out the largest signboard to try and intimidate the girl in front of him.
"I'm warning you! This is Shrek City! This hotel has big shots from Shrek Academy backing it! If you dare touch me today, Shrek Academy's law enforcement will definitely not let you get away with it!"
Upon hearing this all-too-familiar threat, Seele stopped in her tracks, a cold, mocking smile playing on her lips.
"Trying to intimidate me with a pirated Shrek Academy?"
Seele's black sickle drew a semicircle in mid-air, its tip pointing directly at the waiter's nose.
"I'm the kind of person who can't stand being threatened, and what I hate most are unscrupulous merchants like you who bully others and have no bottom line!"
Seele's voice was clear and loud, echoing throughout the hall.
"You dare to brazenly price a pot of ordinary hundred-year-old soul beast meat, cooked using cheap methods, at 500,000 gold soul coins! And you even resort to such despicable tricks as setting up extortion and forcing sales!"
"How many innocent outsider Soul Masters and civilians have been troubled by your so-called 'rules'? If you continue to operate this black-market establishment and continue to charge exorbitant prices, will ordinary people in Shrek City be able to afford food? Will ordinary Soul Masters have any way to survive?!"
Seele's words struck the hearts of everyone present like heavy hammer blows.
"Today, I will teach you bullies a lesson on behalf of those you have wronged!"
With that, Seele's eyes turned cold, and she brandished the black sickle in her hand again, as if she was about to take action and cripple the waiter who had aided and abetted the evildoer.
At that moment, the diners who had been watching from the sidelines, angry but not daring to speak out, finally had their suppressed anger ignited after hearing Seele's righteous words!
"This little girl is right!"
In the crowd, a simply dressed young Soul Master suddenly stood up, pointed at the waiter with red eyes, and loudly accused him.
"What kind of bullshit signature dish is this! Last month, you bunch of bastards tricked me into ordering a so-called rare soul beast meat, and when it came time to pay, you pulled out a hidden clause and charged me a full 500,000 gold soul coins!"
The young Soul Master became more and more agitated as he spoke, his voice filled with despair and anger.
“I don’t have that much money at all, yet you forced me to sign a loan agreement with exorbitant interest rates! You even had people watching me, preventing me from leaving Shrek City until I’ve paid off those debts that I can’t possibly repay! You’re profiting off my misfortune!”
The young Soul Master's accusation was like pouring a ladle of cold water into a pot of boiling oil, causing an uproar in the hall!
One after another, people have come forward to condemn it.
"Yes! This is a total rip-off!"
"They're just taking advantage of the fact that they have Shrek Academy backing them up, and they're exploiting them to the bone!"
"I support these girls! It's long overdue for someone to teach these lawless vampires a lesson!"
There were already many complaints here, and now they've only intensified them.
In an instant, the entire hotel lobby was filled with condemnation and angry shouts against the store, and public opinion instantly turned against them, all supporting Seele and her friends.
Looking at the angry crowd of diners around me, and hearing their shouts of threatening to smash up the restaurant.
The waiter's face was now ashen.
It's over! It's all over!
Just as the waiter was in despair, and Seele's scythe was about to fall at the last second.
"Wait! Spare his life!"
A clear, slightly anxious male voice suddenly came from outside the hotel entrance.
Immediately afterwards, a man and a woman quickly parted the crowd and strode into the messy hotel lobby.
The man walking in front had a handsome and refined appearance, and wore a well-tailored blue long gown, but there was a hint of weariness between his brows.
The woman beside him was dressed in a clean and neat outfit, with a beautiful face.
The people who came were none other than Beibei and Tang Ya.
Beibei and Tang Ya had only come out for a stroll today when they heard the huge commotion and the angry outcry coming from the hotel, so they rushed in.
"Please calm down, everyone. My name is Beibei, a student from the outer academy of Shrek Academy. I wonder what exactly happened here?"
Chapter 201 Is it right to come to your own territory and accuse yourself of piracy?
They saw Beibei and Tang Ya arrive.
The waiter, who had been terrified, scrambled over as if he had grasped a lifeline and quickly hid behind Beibei and Tang Ya.
Beibei's gaze swept over Xier, Wang Donger, and the other two, her brows furrowing slightly.
He looked at them for a long time, but still couldn't recognize who the four girls in front of him were.
Although Beibei did see Wang Dong'er when she went to Shrek Academy in the sky.
However, Wang Dong'er always dressed as a man back then, but now she has returned to dressing as a woman, with long pink and blue hair flowing down her back. Her temperament has undergone a dramatic change and she is completely different.
Furthermore, Beibei had never seen the uniform specially made for Shrek Academy in the Sky, so she naturally couldn't directly connect their identities.
At this moment, the waiter hiding behind Beibei was trembling all over, but dared not utter a single word.
Under normal circumstances, he would definitely turn the tables and use Shrek Academy's influence to falsely accuse Seele and her three friends of dining and dashing, and even claim that they assaulted the hotel's security guards.
But now, he doesn't dare.
With so many diners watching, every single one of them clearly saw everything that had just happened.
Moreover, their recent practice of overcharging customers has indeed aroused strong dissatisfaction among many people.
If I dared to speak out now, and instead became enraged, my fate would likely be even worse. I might even be torn to pieces on the spot by these angry diners, and Shrek Academy might not be able to protect me; they might just throw me out as a scapegoat.
If Shrek Academy hadn't caused such a big commotion on a normal day, it could have saved itself. But now, it's clear that things have gotten out of hand.
Looking at the tense atmosphere in the hall and the Soul Sect thugs lying on the ground, Bei Bei turned her gaze to Xi'er, who was holding a sickle, and Wang Dong'er, who was standing in front of her, and asked again.
"Girls, what exactly happened?"
Wang Dong'er sneered, abandoned her spectator's mood, stepped forward, and explained the whole story of how she bought a pot of 100-year-old soul beast meat for 500,000 gold soul coins.
Upon hearing Wang Dong'er's words, Bei Bei froze on the spot.
Five hundred thousand gold soul coins?! To buy a serving of 100-year-old soul beast meat?!
He had no idea that such a thing could happen in Shrek City; the price was simply unbelievable!
Beibei immediately turned around and looked at the waiter hiding behind her with a look full of doubt and sternness.
When the waiter met Beibei's gaze, he was sweating profusely, stammering, unable to utter a single word for a long time, his eyes darting around, not daring to meet Beibei's eyes at all.
Seeing the waiter's exaggerated expression, the man's heart skipped a beat, but he still found it hard to believe.
Beibei took a deep breath and turned to Wang Dong'er and the others to speak.
"Ladies, is there some misunderstanding in this matter?"
"I've eaten this restaurant's signature dish, the Hundred-Year Soul Beast Meat, before."
Beibei explained.
"That price is only fifty gold soul coins. Although fifty gold soul coins is indeed quite expensive for ordinary people, it is definitely not as much as five hundred thousand gold soul coins! This is simply impossible. How could a piece of hundred-year-old soul beast meat sell for five hundred thousand gold soul coins?"
Hearing Beibei say that.
Among the onlookers, the young soul master who had first stood up to condemn the incident rushed forward with red eyes.
"Misunderstanding? There's absolutely no misunderstanding!"
The man pulled a parchment IOU with a blood-red handprint from his pocket, unfolded it, and showed it to Beibei as evidence of his signature.
"Look for yourself, Shrek Academy student! It clearly says 500,000 gold soul coins!"
Beibei looked down at the shocking number on the IOU and the tyrannical clause forbidding her from leaving Shrek City, and her hands trembled slightly.
The man looked at Beibei, his face full of expectation and pleading.
