Chapter 508 The True Power of the Blue Silver Domain (Part 1)

Oscar pointed to the corpse of the Mirror Beast. "Big brother, hurry up and take out the soul bone. I'll collect some of their blood."

As he spoke, Oscar took out some containers of different styles from his personal soul tool. Before he acquired this sixth soul skill, he didn't know if he could succeed, so he naturally didn't make any preparations. But having been in such a dangerous situation, he naturally carried a lot of various items with him, and he could still free up some to hold blood.

After all, no Soul Master would easily give him their blood, and his sixth Soul Skill requires fresh blood as a catalyst. Oscar had already decided to use the blood of the Soul Masters in front of him, whose strength was similar to his own, to make a batch of Mirror Sausages to carry with him. This would be enough for his self-defense.

Haote knew from Oscar's previous performance that his sixth soul skill was related to blood. At this moment, a faint gentleness appeared in his eyes. He understood that Oscar was not prepared to take that soul bone, so he asked him to collect it.

With his overwhelming strength, Hao Te easily cracked open the Mirror Shadow Beast's head, revealing its true form as a soul bone. Oscar, of course, was certain that within the Mirror Shadow Beast's head lay a crystal-clear skull capable of reflecting light. The entire skull seemed to be made of mirror, shimmering faintly under external light.

The bone felt heavy in his hand, and a unique fluctuation of soul power emanated from Haote's fingertips, causing a hint of intoxication to unconsciously appear in his eyes. A soul bone—who wouldn't want one? Especially a skull bone, second only to the torso bones. For any soul master, it was an invaluable treasure.

In a short while, Oscar had collected all the blood he needed and returned to Haote's side, his gaze naturally falling on the Mirror Skull. But there was no greed in his eyes. Having obtained this sixth soul skill that best suited him, he was already content and had no desire for more. His reason for acting was that he didn't want to die here.

The dazed look in Haote's eyes gradually faded, and he held the skull in his hands, presenting it to Oscar. "Absorb it. It should be very useful to you."

Oscar was taken aback. "Big brother, what are you doing? You've helped me so much already. I'm more than satisfied with the spirit ring. This spirit bone is rightfully yours. You came out to hunt spirit beasts precisely for this treasure, didn't you?"

Haote sighed, "Brother, don't argue with me. Take it. It's more important to you than to me. The same spirit beast's spirit and the resulting spirit bone are most effective when absorbed by the same person. You understand that. Besides, you saved my life. Although I've helped you a bit these past two years, if you hadn't kindly saved me back then, I wouldn't have had the chance to help you. I owe you my life, and this is just a spirit bone."

Oscar's encounter with Hott was purely accidental. Hott had been ambushed and severely injured by a group of hunters, and was lying unconscious in the wilderness. Fortunately, he met Oscar, who used a small antidote sausage to help Hott recover from the poison, and then used a large recovery sausage to help him recover quickly. When the enemy came after them, Oscar even used a flying mushroom sausage to escape, thus completely resolving Hott's crisis.

Hought was a straightforward person, and although he didn't say it, he was filled with gratitude towards Oscar, his savior. This was a major reason why the two had such a close relationship and why Oscar could completely trust him.

"But..." Oscar wanted to say something, but was stopped by Haote.

"Brother, don't say anything more. Actually, I have my own reasons for giving you this soul bone. I'm already over fifty years old. After a soul master reaches sixty, it becomes much more difficult to improve their strength. In my entire life, reaching the Soul Douluo level is probably the best-case scenario. But you're different; you're only twenty-two! I've never seen a more outstanding food-type soul master than you. Your future is limitless. You might even reach the legendary Food-type Title Douluo level. Now that you've called me 'big brother,' I'll be relying on you from now on. The stronger you are, the more solid my backing will be, won't it?"

Oscar understood perfectly well that Hott's words were meant to persuade him to accept the soul bone. Looking at the shimmering light reflected in the mirror before him, he said nothing more. Yes, for him, possessing a soul bone suited to him was far too important. This rare and precious treasure was enough to elevate his strength to a new level.

With both hands carefully taking the Mirror Image Skull into his hands, Oscar no longer hesitated. Under Haote's gratified gaze, his eyes focused, and a faint silver light was released from the Mirror Image Soul Bone. With a soft bang, the entire soul bone had transformed into a cloud of silver energy, which rapidly flowed into Oscar's seven orifices, leaving him completely stunned.

Haote stepped back, gathering his soul power, and cautiously observed his surroundings to protect him. The corpses on the ground were gradually growing cold, and amidst the bloody and murderous aura, an unprecedented food-type soul master was growing at an astonishing speed.

……

Shrek Academy.

The entire college has been in an uproar since yesterday afternoon because of the shocking message posted by the college.

Five members of the Shrek Seven Devils have returned and will engage in an exhibition match with the two deans. In the world of Soul Masters, strength is always revered. The glory created by the Shrek Seven Devils back then is almost impossible to replicate. They not only won the championship of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, but their age at the time also became a permanent record of the tournament.

Five years later, five of the Seven Devils returned, including Tang San, whom the students were most looking forward to seeing. Almost all the students of Shrek Academy had heard their teachers vividly recount Tang San's performance in the competition, especially the final battle where he turned the tide against the Spirit Hall Academy team, defeated their opponents, and won the final reward.

At least on the surface, even the Spirit Hall was helpless against him, because he had not violated any of the Spirit Hall's rules.

Each of the Shrek Seven Devils was a legendary figure to these ordinary students. Their return, and their upcoming exhibition match against the two deans, was truly exhilarating!

It's important to know that both deans are now Soul Masters of level 80 or above. Such a competition will naturally showcase extremely gorgeous super Soul Skills, which is a dream come true for low-level Soul Masters.

The students were excitedly speculating about the outcome of the exhibition match, recalling the stories of the Shrek Seven Devils told by their teachers, while the academy itself was making preparations in earnest. The exhibition match was to be held in the heart of a large forest behind the academy. This location was requested by Tang San and his companions.

"Erlong, you've really ruined my life. Don't you know how freakish those kids are? Besides, how could I, the dean of the academy, easily take action?" Flander glared at Liu Erlong with dissatisfaction.

Liu Erlong snorted, "How about this, you'll handle all the academy's affairs from now on, and I'll play in today's exhibition match, how about that?"

"Uh, this..." Flander was speechless for a moment.

Liu Erlong said irritably, "You're like a king these days, not having to do anything. It's time you did something for the academy. Give a performance in front of the students to show off your strength and let them get to know their dean."

Flander said with a bitter face, "But you know how strong those five little monsters are. If they were just five ordinary level 60 Soul Masters, a fight wouldn't be a problem. I'd be fairly confident. But these five little guys aren't ordinary. Four of them possess Soul Bones. Just Mu Bai and Zhu Qing's Martial Soul Fusion Skill alone is enough to give me a run for my money. Not to mention the other three little guys surrounding them. If things go wrong, I might embarrass myself."

Liu Erlong chuckled and said, "Didn't I arrange for you and Zhao Wuji to go together? It's not like I'm sending you alone."

Flander paused for a moment, "Isn't your arrangement supposed to have the two of us take turns?"

Liu Erlong said brazenly, "Of course not. I arranged for both of you to go together. Do you think I don't know how powerful Tang San and the others are? You're my boss, after all. I can't let you embarrass yourself."

Hearing this, Flander immediately relaxed, laughed heartily, and said, "As expected of my good sister. Hmm, two people are good, two people are good! No matter how powerful those five little monsters are, they can't escape my grasp."

Liu Erlong looked at him with disdain. "I wonder who was looking so apprehensive just now. Boss, don't think you can relax just because it's two against five. These little monsters can't be judged by ordinary standards. When I talked to them yesterday, they agreed without hesitation, only choosing the venue for the exhibition match."

Flander said dismissively, "Although they are all geniuses among geniuses, you can't underestimate your older brother! Wuji and I are both Soul Douluo, and at this level, a twenty-level difference is an insurmountable chasm. Under normal circumstances, either of us could easily crush more than ten level sixty Soul Emperors, let alone five. And that's with double insurance; if the two of us can't even beat five of them, we might as well give up."

Liu Erlong chuckled and said, "So, this exhibition match was inherently unfair. That's why I added a line during the promotion: if the five of them can withstand your and Wuji's attacks for the time it takes for three incense sticks to burn, they win."

Flander nodded and said, "That's good. After all, they are geniuses we've trained. It wouldn't look good if they lost too badly. With a time limit, a draw in the end would be a win-win situation. By the way, Erlong, did you charge the students an entrance fee? That's a considerable income!"

Liu Erlong rolled his eyes. "Boss, are you short of money? I remember the Empire just gave us a grant."
