The Ten Goddesses of Douluo Continent are all my Martial Souls

Soto.

Dean's Office.

Flander listened with astonishment to Zhao Wuji's account of the vast forest on this planet, his expression changing several times.

Finally, upon hearing that everyone had returned safely, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems we were too careless."

Flanders sighed, a wave of fear washing over him.

“Next time we go hunting soul beasts, I’ll lead the team with you, along with two teachers. These children are all the pride of heaven; if anything were to happen to them, it would ruin their talents.”

Zhao Wuji sat on a chair to the side, even more afraid of something going wrong than Flander. He smiled wryly:

"It's not your fault. Who knew the Star Dou Great Forest would become so strange, with so many stories unfolding in its outer areas? Luckily, we were fortunate. Otherwise, we would have really suffered losses this time."

"Frankly speaking, even if we send four teachers to protect these children, as you say, we'd be doomed if we encountered a 500,000-year-old crested serpent."

Flanders nodded.

"But the Star Dou Great Forest is the closest gathering place of soul beasts to the academy. We have nowhere else to choose. In the future, when we go to the Star Dou Great Forest, we must be extra careful and never be careless."

"Hehe, a crested snake that is hundreds of thousands of years old is indeed very rare. Even I have never heard of it before."

"You went to the Star Dou Great Forest and actually encountered a Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent of this age. I really don't know whether to say you're too lucky or too unlucky."

Suddenly, a voice that sounded somewhat stiff and strange came from outside the door.

Zhao Wuji was startled.

He had heard footsteps approaching earlier, but he hadn't paid much attention, assuming it was just a teacher from the academy. Now, hearing the sound, he realized something was wrong; there wasn't a single sound like that coming from within the academy.

"Haha. Someone who knew we were here has arrived, Xiao Gang. Come in quickly."

The door opened, and an older man walked in from outside.

His face was stiff. He stood ramrod straight. At first glance, he seemed somewhat dazed, but in reality, his deep black eyes revealed a hint of anxiety.

If Tang San were in this room, he would recognize this person at a glance.

Because this person is Tang San's teacher, a famous master in the world of soul masters.

. . . . . . . .

By the way, I'd also like to ask for your subscriptions, recommendations, donations, and monthly tickets. I would be extremely grateful!

Chapter 273 is unprecedented!

"Come here, Wuji, you haven't met him before, have you? Let me introduce you. This is my old buddy from back then, and also Tang San's teacher. You can just call him Master. Almost everyone in the Soul Master world calls him that."

Zhao Wuji's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the master with great surprise.

"So you are the master. Hello, I am Zhao Wuji."

The master's tone was always so calm, and a forced smile appeared on his stiff face.

"Immovable King, you're too kind. You're back. Tang San must have returned with you. Is he safe and sound?"

When he first arrived at the door, he only heard Zhao Wuji mention encountering the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent; he didn't hear anything Zhao Wuji said before that.

Zhao Wuji chuckled and said:

"Thankfully, we were quite lucky; everyone returned safely. We owe a lot to Tang San this time. Master, you've truly taught a fine disciple. When did you arrive at the academy?"

Flander answered Zao Wou-Ki's question on behalf of the master.

"Him? He just arrived the day before yesterday. If it weren't for Tang San, he probably would never have set foot in my house again. Xiao Gang, have a seat."

Upon hearing Zhao Wuji say that Tang San was alright, the master's expression visibly relaxed. Without further ado, he pulled up a chair and sat down.

Zhao Wuji then realized that the master's real name was actually Xiao Gang.

It sounded a bit odd, but it was a name full of masculine energy. He had heard many rumors about the master before.

Although the master himself appeared somewhat thin and not particularly strong, he was known for his unyielding temperament.

He once distanced himself from his family for some reason. That's how he met Flander and another person, forming the later renowned Golden Trio.

Zhao Wuji was very interested in what the master had said before entering. He quickly pressed for an answer:

"Master, why did a Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent with 500,000 years of cultivation suddenly appear on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest?"

"Moreover, that Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent originally had a cultivation level of only a little over a thousand years, but in the blink of an eye, it became a cultivation level of five hundred thousand years?"

The master's face showed a solemn expression. "This is the first time I've heard of such a strange thing. I'm sorry, I don't understand what's going on either."

Hearing that even Master Yu Xiaogang had said so, Flander and Zhao Wuji could only sigh helplessly.

After all, Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang is an authority on martial spirits and spirit beasts in the Douluo Continent.

Even Yu Xiaogang couldn't figure out the situation, so the others certainly couldn't either.

The master said:

"Teacher Zhao, I have carefully reviewed the information of these students. This time, you went to the Star Dou Great Forest to find the third spirit ring for that food-type spirit master. I wonder what kind of spirit beast spirit ring he finally obtained?"

Zhao Wuji chuckled and said:

"We were lucky this time. Oscar got a thousand-year-old male rooster spirit ring and gained a pretty good third spirit skill."

"A thousand-year-old crowing rooster?"

The muscles on the master's stiff face twitched slightly.

"This is indeed very good. Although the Male Rooster's spirit ring is not as good as the Phoenix-Tailed Rooster's Crested Serpent spirit ring, it is still quite good. The Male Rooster is relatively gentle by nature, but it is very cunning and is best at escaping. Cultivation is not easy, so if I'm not mistaken, Oscar's third spirit ring must be related to speed."

Zhao Wuji exclaimed in admiration:

"As expected of a master, you are right. Oscar's third spirit ring is indeed related to speed. His third spirit skill is a mushroom sausage. After eating it, he can maintain flight for half a minute, and his flight speed is the same as that of a rooster."

The master seemed taken aback, clearly not expecting Oscar to acquire the Earth Soul Skill in this way. He decisively said:

"This child's talent for food-type spirit souls is unprecedented. He is the most outstanding food-type spirit master I have ever seen. His future is limitless."

Flanders chuckled and said:

"My Shrek Academy has always only accepted monsters. You're only finding that out today?"

"It's a pity that this will be the last batch. These seven children are the academy's last disciples. I must train them to become talents. With your help this time, we brothers will work together. In less than ten years, we will surely make the world of soul masters tremble with the name Shrek."

The master glared at Flanders with annoyance:

"If it weren't for Xiao San, I wouldn't have stayed. Flander, don't forget your promise. From now on, you must personally accompany Xiao San when she hunts soul beasts."

Flanders said:

"That's easy to say. However, we'll have to wait until he reaches level 40."

The master was an exceptionally intelligent man. His seemingly lifeless eyes suddenly shone brightly as he stared at Zhao Wuji. He said:

"Teacher Zhao, has Xiao San already reached level 30?"

Zhao Wuji nodded. He said:

"Yes, in the Star Dou Great Forest, Xiao San has already broken through from a second-ring Great Soul Master to a third-ring Soul Venerable."

Master Yu Xiaogang said in a deep voice:

"Xiao San's talent ranks among the geniuses in the entire Douluo Continent, and among geniuses, he is extremely outstanding."

"This child's future prospects are probably even more outstanding than I judged."

Flanders laughed heartily:

"Okay. Then I'll look forward to you staying. We brothers will finally be able to be together again. It's a pity she's not here."

Upon hearing Flander mention "her," the master's expression changed slightly, and he frowned.

"Flander, don't mention her. I don't want to argue with you."

The "she" that Flander and Yu Xiaogang were talking about was Liu Erlong.

Long ago, Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang were lovers and almost got married.

However, what Flander and Yu Xiaogang didn't know at this moment was that Liu Erlong had already fallen in love with Ye Dongxuan.

Moreover, she had fallen deeply, irrevocably, and madly in love with Ye Dongxuan.

As for Yu Xiaogang, in Liu Erlong's eyes now, he is just a piece of trash that is not worth mentioning, a useless person with no connection to her.

Liu Erlong even planned to kill Yu Xiaogang.

Flander and Yu Xiaogang were unaware of Liu Erlong's transformation.

If Yu Xiaogang knew about Liu Erlong's change of heart, he would probably have stayed far away to avoid being killed on the spot by Liu Erlong.

. . . . . .

Flander shrugged helplessly:

"Okay. I don't want to argue either. But I really hope you stay."

"Over the years, I have devoted myself to Shrek Academy. Now that I have finally decided to close the academy, I hope that this last batch of students can give me a perfect ending. With you here, all of this will become easier."

In Flanders' eyes, the master saw a hint of weariness. His stiff expression softened slightly. He nodded.

"We'll discuss everything after I meet with the mistress tomorrow."

Flander said to Zhao Wuji:

"Wuji, you must be tired after traveling all day. Go and rest. You've worked hard this time."

Zhao Wuji smiled slightly and said:

"The academy doesn't just belong to you. If we weren't full of hope for this place and loved this peaceful life, who would have stayed here for so many years?"

"This is the culmination of everyone's hard work. No need for formalities, Master. Flander. I'll be going now."

After saying that, Zhao Wuji stood up and left Flander's office.

Flander watched Zhao Wuji leave, a hint of relief in his eyes.

"If it weren't for the help of these old brothers over the years, I probably wouldn't have been able to keep the academy afloat. After this batch of students graduates, I also need to relax and travel around the mainland to unwind. Xiao Gang, do you want to come with me?"

The master paused for a moment, then shook his head:
