Douluo Continent: The Great Villain System, Intercepting Tianmeng's Ice Silkworm

Chapter 74 Mingde Hall

Under a crimson hue, above the Shrek City walls.

Nine figures stepped on nine soul rings, and countless evil energies spread outward from their bodies.

Besides Long Xiaoyao, the Holy Spirit Cult also has nine other Title Douluos, including four Super Douluos and the rest who are all above level 92.

As for Jing Hongchen, he originally did not want to be involved in the battle between the Holy Spirit Cult and Shrek Academy.

Therefore, they only engaged in simple defense and occasionally retaliated a few times.

But the Holy Spirit Cult doesn't care what you think; if someone isn't one of their own, they'll kill them if they get caught.

The light barrier that Jing Hongchen used to protect the students was almost broken, and the purple-gold robe worn by this seemingly refined Mingde Hall Master was now tattered.

He tried to escape the combat zone for the third time, but was forced back by three skull-shaped soul tools.

As the head of Mingde Hall and a level nine soul master, he had never suffered such humiliation before, and his anger was instantly ignited.

Twelve level-eight fixed-position soul-guided cannons instantly rose into the air, their blinding light comparable to the sun exploding instantly, vaporizing all evil soul masters within a hundred meters.

Various spirit rings flashed continuously in the sky, and explosions were heard incessantly.

The battle continued until dawn. The titled Douluo of Shrek Academy all suffered different injuries, but fortunately, with the help of the Sea God's Light and the Golden Ancient Tree, their lives were not in danger.

"Damn it, I should never have come here! Not only did I not gain anything, but I also wasted so many of my soul tools!"

Jing Hongchen's face was ashen, and her tightly clenched hands were white from the force of her grip. She was filled with regret.

Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, nine out of ten of them were from the Holy Spirit Cult, Long Xiaoyao's face was equally ugly, and he laughed in anger.

"Hmph, Shrek, you think? Everyone, retreat!"

Thanks to the involvement of Jing Hongchen and Xuanzi, Ma Xiaotao was not captured as in the original story.

However, Moon still couldn't escape the fate of getting injured.

Watching Long Xiaoyao's departing figure, Mu En felt a sense of desolation in his eyes, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"Teacher, are you alright?" Yan Shaozhe, enduring the pain, quickly came to Mu En's side and helped him up.

"Shao Zhe, I'm fine." Mu En waved his hand and said, "In this battle with Long Xiaoyao, it seemed that we were evenly matched, but I only managed to do so by using the light of the Sea God."

This battle has once again damaged my very essence; I fear my days are numbered.

"This... Teacher, how could this happen?" Yan Shaozhe panicked immediately. If Mu En, the pillar of strength, were to pass away, would Shrek Academy still have its current status?

After all, Shrek Academy is one of the three top powers on the continent, and after ten thousand years, many people are already envious of it.

They all wanted to oust Shrek and replace him.

Although Shrek Academy still has Xuanzi, a peak level 98 Douluo, in charge, Yan Shaozhe was speechless when he thought about Xuanzi's previous actions.

"Shao Zhe, I have lived long enough. When I die, let Xuan Zi take over the position of the Sea God Pavilion Master."

As for Xiao Bei, he is still too young and cannot take on this responsibility in the short term.

The moment Mu En saw Poseidon's martial spirit, he had already decided to let Poseidon take over the position of the Sea God Pavilion Master.

After the corpses in the academy were cleaned up, Poseidon emerged from the corner.

As a Soul Master, I had absolutely no chance to make a move in a battle at the Title Douluo level.

Half an hour later.

Outside Shrek City.

After shaking hands with Jing Hongchen, Yan Shaozhe said, "Sect Master Hongchen, I'm entrusting my junior brother to you."

Jing Hongchen smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, Dean Yan, I will definitely train him well."

After speaking, a pair of thin, golden wings suddenly unfolded behind Jing Hongchen, with a faint golden light flowing over them. No soul power was emitted; they simply spread out gently.

Then, the pair of thin, golden wings on his back suddenly shone brightly, enveloping Gu Yuena and Poseidon together.

When the two opened their eyes, they discovered that the soul tool behind Jing Hongchen had expanded more than tenfold, and the two seemed to be standing inside a sphere of light.

Jing Hongchen turned around and smiled slightly at the two of them. Then, the golden light intensified, and the surrounding scenery became somewhat illusory.

……

The capital of the Sun and Moon Empire, Sun and Moon City, is also known as Mingdu.

As the political and economic center of the Sun Moon Empire, this city covers a vast area.

Once inside the Mingdu area, Jing Hongchen slowed down the speed of his soul tool and said:

"We have entered the territory of Mingdu. If nothing unexpected happens, you will be living here from now on."

Mingdu can be considered the pride of our Sun Moon Empire. I dare say that even if you combine the capitals of Xingluo, Tianhun, and Douling, they still cannot compare to Mingdu.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The two ignored it and continued to watch the scene below.

It was already evening. Looking around, Poseidon saw a vast expanse of buildings, most of which were five stories or higher.

Some even have more than ten floors!

No wonder Jing Hongchen said before that no other capital could compare to Mingdu; now it seems that this is indeed true.

For some reason, looking at the tall buildings below, Poseidon felt as if he had returned to his original world.

It's just that there are no traffic lights and no cars.

After an unknown amount of time, Poseidon noticed that the surroundings were becoming increasingly bright.

Without realizing it, the area below seemed to be enveloped by layers of golden light curtains, with tiny golden specks of light scattered around.

"Next is Mingde Hall, which is where you will be studying from now on."

When Jing Hongchen mentioned the name Mingdetang, a hint of pride appeared on his face.

Soon, the golden orbs of light around the two gradually dissipated and finally landed steadily on the ground.

A six-meter-long metal gate came into view.

As Jing Hongchen began to inject his soul power, the surrounding air subtly began to tremble.

As the nine gear-shaped soul locks lit up one after another, the entire gate suddenly disintegrated into countless rhomboid metal pieces.

"Welcome to Mingde Hall's core laboratory."

Jing Hongchen's voice trembled with a metallic quality.

The moment he passed through the light barrier, Poseidon heard a high-frequency buzzing in his ears, and countless silver light particles rose from the surface of his protective suit. This was the Soul Guidance Field scanning the intruder.

When his vision cleared again, he felt as if he were in an upside-down mechanical forest.

Within a circular space hundreds of meters high, twelve floating platforms rise in a spiral, each with a giant soul tool being assembled suspended on it.

Deep purple energy channels, like blood vessels, clung to the transparent dome, transporting liquid soul power to various locations.

Suddenly, light trails lit up the silver-gray floor beneath their feet, carrying them toward the central control console. Along the way, mechanical arms were carving soul-guiding core arrays, and sparks from the laser blades condensed into brief golden mists in the air.
