Douluo Continent: Saving Zhang Lexuan at the Start

Mo Yuan's sudden betrayal caught Wu Ming off guard.

In the audience, Zhang Lexuan, who was sitting next to her homeroom teacher Mu Jin from Class 9, also stood up immediately.

Mu Jin was stunned, but even more so, she was furious. "What's going on? This Mo Yuan!"

"Teacher Mujin, let's talk about it after the competition. I believe Ying and his team will definitely win."

Although Zhang Lexuan was also quite shocked, she believed that Ye Ying and Wu Ming, three people who were not even Great Soul Masters, could not possibly be their match.

And that was indeed the case. Ye Ying, holding the Moon Soul Bow, activated her first soul skill—the Spirit of the Underworld Moon—and fired two arrows in succession, both of which were blocked by the referee.

Clearly, in the referee's eyes, they were no match for Ye Ying's arrows.

Wu Ming also took the opportunity to break free from the influence of Mo Yuan's interfering soul ring. With his amazing Golden Crow True Fire, he directly took away the last strong attack type soul master.

As soon as the match ended, Wu Ming's pearly teeth ground together, her fair little hands clenched into fists, "Tell me, how do you want to die? This grandma will grant your wish!"

Before Wu Ming could retaliate, Zhang Lexuan slapped her on the back of the head. "Quiet down for a moment, it's not too late to wait until he finishes speaking."

There's a saying that everything has its counter, and Wu Ming simply bared her teeth at Mo Yuan before falling silent.

Mo Yuan, who was thin, had his head down, and looked very introverted, quickly stepped forward and apologized to Wu Ming.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to, and I really couldn't control my martial spirit."

Next, Ye Ying and the other two finally understood what had happened to Mo Yuan.

No matter how many soul rings he has, his negative aura only has one ability: to interfere with the flow of soul power.

This interference ability doesn't distinguish between friend and foe; anyone within three meters of Mo Yuan will be affected.

If he makes another breakthrough in the future, the range of interference will expand, but the effect will not be enhanced.

The most important point, which even Ye Ying found bizarre, was that Mo Yuan's interference ability was something that even soul tools couldn't avoid!

This was before Mo Yuan enrolled in school; Mo Yuan's family originally wanted to spend a lot of money to buy him a storage soul tool.

As a result, as long as Mo Yuan is nearby, no one can open the soul tool.

"The world is so big and full of wonders, we've really learned something new this time."

Zhang Lexuan gave a wry smile, then said, "Mo Yuan, you should have told us about this sooner!"

"Sorry, the reason I didn't say anything was because I was afraid no one would want to team up with me (╥╯﹏╰╥)ง"

Mo Yuan's family background was already quite good in the eyes of ordinary people.

But in Shrek Academy, a place teeming with nobles and powerful families, anyone could easily take him down with a flick of their wrist.

"Alright, but you can't play. After all, this ability is really..."

Wu Ming didn't know what to say. Given the power of the martial soul, she couldn't blame Mo Yuan.

"I know, actually I initially wanted to say the same thing: just play casually in the competition, I'll cheer you on!"

When the misunderstanding between Ye Ying and Wu Ming was cleared up, Ye Ying and Wu Ming also came into the view of some people.

"Wow, Golden Crow True Fire! This little girl from the Wu family doesn't seem like someone to be trifled with."

With short, graying hair and a goatee, Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department, stroked his beard and said, "Elder Xuan, you see this girl has good talent, and her Martial Soul is the ancient beast Golden Crow. Don't you have any intention of taking her as a disciple?"

Sitting next to Yan Shaozhe, Elder Xuan swallowed the chicken leg and wine in his mouth, and said in a low voice, "Why did you only see that girl from the Wu family? Didn't you even glance at that boy from the Ye family?"

Upon hearing Elder Xuan's words, Yan Shaozhe's expression stiffened, his eyes darkening with uncertainty. "Elder Xuan, there are some things you know, and do you really think the Ye family would allow their eldest son to join Shrek Academy?"

These words reached Elder Xuan's ears, causing him to immediately lower his head, hug the wine gourd, and take a large gulp, making his already red nose even more vibrant.

"Sigh, to be honest, I know everything you've done is for Shrek's good. But Shrek is ultimately just an academy, where students come and go as they please. Those students with insufficient foundation are basically the fresh blood for Shrek's legacy. Why do you still want to target a top-tier family like the Ye family?"

Yan Shaozhe smiled slightly, "My teacher told me that although Shrek Academy has a significant influence in Douluo Continent, there are still Mingde Hall and Body Sect that can rival us."

Hearing this, Elder Xuan put down his wine gourd and sighed softly.

He understood Yan Shaozhe's meaning perfectly well. The meaning was clear: there could only be one voice in the entire Douluo Continent, and that was Shrek Academy.

In the subsequent matches, Mo Yuan was relegated to a lower position, as his inability to distinguish friend from foe was truly a headache.

Zhang Lexuan, who possesses the strength of a high-level Soul Master, attracted the attention of countless new students as soon as she stepped onto the stage.

After a day of competition, Ye Ying's team was unstoppable and quickly achieved victory.

"Brother Ying, why do you always steal my opponents!"

With a huff on her delicate and pretty face, Zhang Lexuan's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of resentment as she kept shaking Ye Ying's wrist, seemingly very dissatisfied with Ye Ying's act of stealing kills.

Σ(ﾟ∀ﾟﾉ)ﾉ, Ye Ying was immediately a little embarrassed. What should I say?

Are you suggesting that the person opposite him is just a pile of rare and valuable metals in his eyes?

Wu Ming, unusually, didn't interrupt!

It wasn't that she was afraid of Zhang Lexuan, but rather that she couldn't say anything about Ye Ying's relationship with Zhang Lexuan, otherwise it would easily lead to misunderstandings.

Fate has changed. Zhang Lexuan is still the eldest daughter of the Zhang family. Although she is still the gentle young lady, she has developed a little quirk: she is now acting coquettishly!

Acting coquettishly is arguably a girl's instinct; almost every girl knows how to do it to some extent.

Ye Ying hadn't expected her little sister to act so coquettishly towards her; she just couldn't resist.

Left with no other choice, Ye Ying had to make up a reason and tell it to her.

To be honest, it's unlikely. The fewer people who know about this system, the better.

Otherwise, if it were to leak out, he would have a hard time guaranteeing that it wouldn't be discovered by some blue-haired, middle-parted monster in the God Realm.

"I see, so you were planning to improve your combat skills. Why didn't you say so earlier!"

Zhang Lexuan stopped pestering Ye Ying and gently stroked his sparse short hair. "Alright then, for the next match, we'll switch roles. You'll be the main attacker, Ming'er will protect you, and I'll provide backup."

With Zhang Lexuan's promise, Ye Ying felt relieved.

Ye Ying was deeply moved by Zhang Lexuan's understanding and didn't know what to say.

Although the two have a close relationship, it is Zhang Lexuan who gives him unconditional support.

In one's life, there are some things and some people that require a lifetime of companionship and repayment.
