Douluo Continent: I am the true master

Chapter 71 The Impact of the Great War

Liu Erlong felt as if she had been transported to another world after leaving Sunset Forest. She never imagined that her attempt would actually lead to her obtaining the coveted qualification of a teacher at Tianxing Academy, a dream for many commoner soul masters.

Ye Wen's image became even more vivid in my mind, as if it were deeply imprinted on my heart.

This feeling was as if Liu Erlong had returned to the age of eleven or twelve, when she was just beginning to experience romantic feelings.

He shook his head a few times, restoring some firmness to his wandering gaze, and Ah Yin's gentle face reappeared in Liu Erlong's mind.

"Master Ye Wen, no, now I should call him Dean, he is a good man, it's a pity that he didn't meet me at the beginning."

I can't have such inappropriate thoughts about the dean. I'm already very grateful that he helped me; how could I possibly destroy their family?

With that thought in mind, Liu Erlong returned to her residence, tidied up for a while, and then headed to the Tianxing Advanced Soul Master Academy.

At this moment, Ye Wen and his companion were still wandering around in the Sunset Forest, searching through hundreds of places that might be the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, but they still found nothing. Both of them were getting a little tired.

However, it wasn't entirely fruitless; during the search, Ye Wen did manage to collect quite a few rare medicinal herbs.

Just as the two were getting bored and were about to head to their next destination, a loud crash came from afar, and a huge rock came crashing down on them.

The two men's expressions instantly changed from lazy to serious, and they each began to unleash their soul skills.

Fifth Soul Skill: Barrier of the Sky—

Fifth Soul Skill: Blue Silver Overlord Spear—

A black spatial barrier suddenly appeared in the direction from which the boulder was coming, stopping the surging boulder in mid-air.

However, the power of the boulder was too great, and the Void Barrier released by Ye Wen shattered in less than a second.

Although the two had not practiced their teamwork, Ah Yin seamlessly connected with the opponent, unleashing her strongest single-target attack skill and hurling the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, creating a powerful sonic boom.

Fortunately, this boulder is not a single, monolithic rock.

After being stabbed by Ah Yin's Blue Silver Overlord Spear, it developed numerous cracks and shattered into pieces about fifty meters away from the two of them, scattering into the forest below.

Only then did the two have a chance to see who attacked them, even though they had already become invisible in mid-air.

A thousand meters away, two colossal beasts were locked in combat: one was a lion engulfed in flames, and the other was a giant gorilla with thick arms that resembled a muscular monster.

Ye Wen's expression was solemn; he knew both pieces of information.

"A giant ape over 6 years old, and with such obvious soul power fluctuations, it must be a human soul master's martial soul true form. Looks like I've accidentally gotten caught up in their battle; I'd better get out of here quickly."

As he said this, Ye Wen quickly manipulated Nabu to try and leave the two of them.

Although the two of them had the feat of killing the 8-year-old War Drum Toad King, the War Drum Toad King was not in the same league as the King Kong Giant Ape. The difference in their races was roughly equivalent to the difference between a super martial soul and a top-tier martial soul.

The book describes the bloodline of the King Kong Giant Ape as comparable to that of top-tier soul beasts like the Titan Giant Ape.

Moreover, defeating the War Drum Toad King was achieved through a clever trick. In this kind of battle, one shouldn't try to pick up the scraps; if you're not careful, you might get caught in the crossfire and suffer serious injuries.

Fortunately, neither of the two combatants noticed Ye Wen, allowing him to escape these two powerful figures unharmed.

"I was terrified! I never imagined there would be such a top-tier soul beast in Sunset Forest." Ah Yin patted her chest, still shaken.

Ye Wen nodded in agreement. The giant ape that was over 6 years old was definitely a being that could rival an ordinary titled Douluo, and the Flaming Lion that fought against it was no ordinary person either.

According to the intelligence Ye Wen gathered, that guy might be the husband of the previous Nine Star Begonia, Lion King Chen Gang.

He is a Soul Douluo with a Soul Power level of 85 and top-notch combat ability. However, he seems to be a bit weaker than the 6-year-old King Kong Giant Ape. But he should be able to escape because the King Kong Giant Ape is a typical strength-type Soul Beast, very good at head-on combat, and would be a laughing stock if it chased down its enemies.

Recalling the details of the battle between the two sides, Ye Wen seemed to understand something.

"Chen Gang must be protecting someone. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to fight the giant gorilla even though he knew he was no match for it. He must be buying time for someone to leave."

But what does this have to do with me? Shaking his head, he dismissed the thought and continued their journey to find the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Just as Ye Wen had expected, Lion King Chen Gang finally broke free after fighting the giant ape for half an hour.

"Damn beast! Why are you coming to this outer area instead of staying deep in Sunset Forest?"

Chen Gang spoke angrily, his once luxurious coat now tattered, revealing his robust physique.

However, the only flaw was that there were several raised patches of purple skin on his body, indicating that Chen Gang had been seriously injured by the giant gorilla.

"We need to find Yingying and Xiaoxi quickly. Even with Lie'er protecting them, it's still too dangerous for them in this big forest."

Ignoring his injuries, Chen Gang began searching for his family members who had been separated due to the battle, following the trail left by his wife and the others.

Ye Wen, who was flying on Nabu at this moment, was a little depressed. Sure enough, life is like gambling.

If no one had cheated, it would have been hard to guess what would happen next. In the original story, the Golden Iron Triangle went straight to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, while I had been wandering around the Sunset Forest for more than half a month and still hadn't found it, even with Ah Yin's Blue Silver Grass gathering information.

As night fell, the two found a secluded spot and set up camp.

Ye Wen's space was extremely large, so there was no need to worry about a shortage of living supplies. Rather, it was the cultivation system of the Douluo World that was truly bizarre. Even if one cultivated to the level of a Title Douluo, one could not achieve complete abstinence from grains.

Therefore, some busybodies commented that the titled Douluo in Douluo Continent is at most equivalent to the Golden Core realm in the cultivation world.

The two of them thoroughly enjoyed their meal of a pot of rich meat broth paired with heated flatbread.

"Gurgle~"

Suddenly, a strange sound came from not far away.

Ye Wen had already checked before setting up camp and found that there were no soul beasts around before setting up camp here. He didn't expect that someone would come to him so quickly. The voice just now was obviously made on an empty stomach.

"Come out, or we'll take action."

"No, don't do that! I... I'm just a support Soul Master who got separated from my companions."

The soft voice revealed panic and grievance, and after a while, a petite and lovely girl appeared in front of the two.
