Douluo Continent: My name is Lu Mingfei, and my martial soul is Lu Mingze.

The moment Lu Mingfei turned around, Jiang Nannan's voice rang out behind him.

Be careful.

Lu Mingfei raised his left hand and waved it, then rushed out.

A shockwave erupted beneath his feet as he activated the Word of Power: Moment, accelerating fourfold.

The surrounding trees rushed past on both sides of my field of vision, and the wind whistled past my ears.

As Lu Mingfei ran, he drew his Tang sword from his storage soul tool. The moment the sword was drawn, moonlight drew a cold arc on its blade.

His voice rang out from the sea of ​​the spirit.

"Snow Empress, pass on to me the Words of Power from the Ocean and Water King lineage, the one with lower energy consumption."

The Snow Emperor was sitting on a floating ice floe in the Sea of ​​Spirit when he heard this and raised his eyes.

"Are you going to make a move?"

"nonsense."

Xue Di didn't ask any further questions and simply waved her hand.

Word of Power: Vortex.

Words of Power: Heaven and Abyss.

Word of Power: Breath of Drowning.

…………

In an instant, Lu Mingfei's mind was filled with some ways to use the power of words and the path of soul power circulation, as clear as an instinct engraved in his bones.

Xue Di frowned slightly.

"With your current soul power reserves, you can't sustain the activation of multiple incantations for long."

"I know." Lu Mingfei didn't stop walking.

Xue Di didn't try to persuade her any further, and passed the message on to a few more people.

Let them fight if they want. Anyway, she's there to back them up, nothing serious will happen unless a few Super Douluo or Limit Douluo come to surround and kill them.

Lu Mingfei felt the extra words of power in his mind, and his lips twitched.

"Why are they all counterfeit goods?"

"What you bestowed upon me is the King of the Ocean and Water, and this lineage of incantations is inherently water-attribute," the Snow Empress said calmly.

Lu Mingfei thought about it and it seemed to make sense. Without saying anything more, he quickly went through the Word of Power.

On the other side of the Sea of ​​Spirit, Lu Mingze sat cross-legged on a floating stone platform, his hands supporting his chin, watching with great interest as Lu Mingfei ran wildly toward the battlefield.

Xue Di turned her head and looked at the little boy who looked only eight or nine years old.

"You're not going to help him?"

Lu Mingze chuckled a few times, his laughter carrying a maturity that was completely at odds with his appearance.

"I am his brother, not his nanny."

Xue Di raised her eyebrows slightly.

Lu Mingze stood up from the stone platform, put his hands behind his back, looked up at the void above the Sea of ​​Spirit, and his tone suddenly became outrageously childish.

He had the air of a reclusive master.

"The king must walk his own path to reclaim his throne."

"I can watch from the sidelines, and I can give him a push at crucial moments, but I can't walk for him."

He fell down, but he got up by himself; he bled, but he wiped himself clean.

Lu Mingze turned his head, his eyes holding an indescribable light.

"Only in this way can he truly become that—"

"The one who can shoulder everything."

Xue Di looked at him and remained silent for a long while.

"Did you say these things to his face?"

"Of course not." Lu Mingze resumed his nonchalant demeanor and sat down cross-legged again.

"It's pointless to talk to him about these things. He'll definitely just say, 'What are you pretending to be so profound for, you little brat?'"

Xue Di's lips twitched slightly, but she didn't say anything more.

If Lu Mingfei really said that, she would wholeheartedly agree.

In the distant woods, Huo Yuhao was running desperately.

His left hand was holding Wang Dong, while his right hand kept swinging out soul-guided rays backward, trying to disrupt the pursuers' rhythm.

Wang Dong's face was a little pale.

He kept looking back to check the pursuers' positions, rapidly counting them out.

"Two on the left, three on the right, and one more in the back that hasn't moved."

Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth.

Five Soul Kings and one Soul Emperor.

Using this formation to surround two students is like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

"Who exactly are they?" Wang Dong asked, his voice trembling with breathlessness.

"I don't know." Huo Yuhao unleashed another soul-guided ray, forcing back a Soul King who was trying to approach from the left.

"But it definitely wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision; it was specifically targeted at us."

His mind raced.

The signal flare has been launched, but the academy is quite far from here, and it will take at least fifteen minutes for reinforcements to arrive.

A quarter of an hour.

Against this lineup, they could die three times in a quarter of an hour.

"Yuhao," Wang Dong suddenly spoke.

"You run towards the academy, I'll hold them off."

Huo Yuhao suddenly turned his head to look at him.

"Are you crazy?"

"I have a way." Wang Dong's expression was serious, not like he was showing off.

"I'll unleash my Martial Soul Fusion Skill and drag them away. Besides, my Martial Soul can also—"

"You're nothing!" Huo Yuhao rarely swore, and he tightened his grip on Wang Dong.

"If we're going to leave, we'll leave together."

The pursuers are getting closer and closer.

The Soul King on the left suddenly accelerated, cutting in from the side and striking Huo Yuhao's back with a palm.

Huo Yuhao had no time to dodge and could only twist his body to take the blow with his shoulder.

A muffled thud.

Huo Yuhao was sent flying and crashed into a tree trunk. Blood was already spilling from the corner of his mouth as he slid down.

"Yuhao!" Wang Dong rushed over and blocked his way.

The Soul King did not pursue, but retreated to his original position and joined the others in forming a fan shape to surround them.

The five Soul Kings simultaneously released their Martial Souls, and their five Soul Rings lit up at the same time. The fluctuations of Soul Power intertwined in the air, forming an impenetrable net.

Then the Soul Emperor walked out from behind.

He was dressed in black and wore a mask, obscuring his face, but the soul power emanating from him pressed down on everyone's chest like a boulder.

Soul Emperor level.

His gaze passed over the encirclement, looking in the direction where the signal flare had dissipated in the night sky, and his brows furrowed.

"A distress signal from the Shrek Academy's inner circle." His voice was hoarse and low.

"We must take them out before reinforcements arrive."

The moment he finished speaking, he moved.

The speed of a Soul Emperor is far beyond what Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong can react to.

The figure of the black-clad Soul Emperor vanished from its spot and reappeared in front of Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong in the next second, his right palm, imbued with powerful soul energy, slamming down towards Huo Yuhao's face.

Huo Yuhao's pupils suddenly contracted.

There's no escaping it.

too fast.

The palm strike had already landed on his face, and he could even feel the stinging sensation of the soul power exploding on his skin.

Then a dark figure crashed in from the side.

Knife light.

The black-clad Soul Emperor's palm collided with the blade light, producing a piercing metallic clang.

The shockwave exploded from the point of impact, causing the surrounding leaves to flutter down.

Lu Mingfei was thrown back by the shockwave, crashing into two trees before coming to a stop, his hands and feet numb.

The black-clad Soul Emperor also withdrew.

He looked down at his palm and saw a bloodstain on his palm.

The expression beneath the mask changed.

He looked up at the boy who had climbed out of the pile of broken trees.

Lu Mingfei shook his numb wrist, switched the Tang sword to his left hand, and then walked back.

He stood on two yellow spirit rings (Lu Mingfei had specifically asked Lu Mingze to dye the spirit rings), and his body was enveloped in a faint bronze luster—the bronze throne.

"Senior!" Huo Yuhao was taken aback when he saw him, and then his expression changed.

"Why are you here?"

Wang Dong panicked: "Go back and get backup! We'll fight this one between us!"

Although Lu Mingfei's arrival as a hero excited them, the opposing team had more people and a higher level, so it was better for two people to get into trouble than for three.

Lu Mingfei turned his head and glanced at the two of them.

Huo Yuhao was about to say that they had a martial soul fusion skill that could restrain the opponent, but before he could finish speaking, Lu Mingfei interrupted him.

"Shut up."
