Douluo Dalu: The Holy Evil Emperor

Just two words - taxes.

Because Emperor Avalanche had promised the Tang Clan a lot of beneficial regulations, one of which was to permanently exempt the Tang Clan from taxes. Not only land taxes, but all of the Tang Clan's actions in Tiandou City would not require them to pay taxes to Tiandou City.

The Tang Sect could even take advantage of loopholes in certain regulations to suck the blood of Tiandou City.

More importantly, they have done this kind of thing many times, especially after the Tang Sect declined and life became increasingly difficult. Most of the time, they relied on sucking the blood of Tiandou City to survive.

Tang Clan: Without our ancestor Tang San, your Tiandou Empire would have been destroyed by the Spirit Hall. Our ancestors once saved you, so what if you offer us some benefits now?

Which city lord can tolerate these hooligans?

Now that the Iron Blood Sect has stepped forward, the mayor of Tiandou City is more than happy to help them, and he immediately opens the door for them.

This way, he could kill the gangsters of Tang Sect with a borrowed knife, and at the same time ensure that he could get this part of tax revenue from Tiexue Sect in the future, killing two birds with one stone.

However, neither the Iron Blood Sect nor the City Lord's Mansion discovered the little girl who escaped from the Tang Sect.

Tangya.

"Xiaoya, run away!"

"Xiaoya, stay alive!"

"Xiaoya, you must rebuild the Tang Sect!"

"It's up to you..."

Tang Ya headed towards Shrek Academy with a heart full of hatred.

What’s interesting is that the destruction of the Tang Clan happened a full year earlier than the original timeline.

……

When Ye Qing saw Bei Bei again, a timid little girl with blue hair was following him. Although she was only in her teens, as a soul master, she looked like a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old.

Although she looked a little disheveled, it could not conceal the girl's beautiful body and her pretty face that was just like a blooming flower.

Well, except for not having a ponytail, she is not much different from the Tang Ya that Ye Qing imagined.

Alas, this little brother is finally put on the Dragon Binding Rope.

Ye Qing couldn't help but sigh.

You were clearly strong enough that even Zhang Lexuan couldn't shake your determination to practice. So how come you couldn't control yourself when you saw the Dragon Binding Rope?

Wait, something seems wrong...

Ye Qing frowned, and keenly noticed that there seemed to be a kind of subtle attraction on Tang Ya that could touch people's hearts inadvertently. Even he himself had the urge to look at Tang Ya.

If he didn't have the ultimate talent for light and darkness and possessed similar abilities, he wouldn't have been able to detect this strange feeling.

"Fuck, there's a ghost!" Ye Qingju was startled and quickly looked away.

Sure enough, when Tang Ya no longer appeared in his sight, that heart-stirring feeling suddenly weakened a lot. Most people might not be able to help but look at Tang Ya again because of this feeling, just like Bei Bei who was now tied with the Dragon Binding Rope.

But Ye Qing, who was already on guard, would naturally not fall into the trap.

"Okay, okay, that's it."

He said that Zhang Lexuan was so charming and had always been with Beibei. Beibei had always said, "Sister Lexuan, will you marry me when you grow up?", but how could Beibei be so obsessed with Tang Ya later on?

As expected, the punk already had some tricks up his sleeve.

"But after all, I founded the Tang Sect. How can I bear to watch it disappear like this?"

These words were said by the beggar himself. It is quite normal and reasonable for him to use some tricks to get a few tools to help him rebuild the Tang Sect.

"Damn it, I just got exiled to the outer courtyard and I encountered such a crappy thing." Ye Qing cursed in his heart. For the first time, he felt the difficulty of this copy of the Peerless Tang Sect.

Chapter 47 Registration, Prestige

Normally, with the God of Destruction watching him, Tang San during the Unrivaled Tang Sect period should have stayed in the God Realm and developed steadily.

Ye Qing has also been trapped in this misunderstanding, and has been in this world for nearly ten years, but has never faced Tang San's methods, and thought that he really couldn't do much.

But if you think about it carefully, you can see that this is pure nonsense.

Didn’t Tang San interfere enough in Douluo Continent, both overtly and covertly, during the period of Unrivaled Tang Sect?

First, he asked Dai Mubai to pull Huo Yun'er's soul up from the underworld and revive it. Later, he used the power of the sea god to allow Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, whose martial souls had nothing to do with each other, to form a martial soul fusion skill with 100% compatibility.

Then there was the auspicious beast incident, the ice and fire yin and yang eyes incident, the Qiankun Love Valley incident, Tang Wutong's suturing incident, the chastity lock sealing incident, and even the agreement he secretly reached with Juzi.

“I warned you never to tell this secret.” This was what Tang San said explicitly to Ju Zi, which proved that he had met Ju Zi and even threatened her before Huo Yuhao knew that Xu Yunhan was his son.

So many cases have long proved that Tang San has made many plans for Douluo Continent under the nose of the God of Destruction.

It is only natural to have another little trick to arrange Tang Ya now.

Those are just the means that are on the surface and not written in the plot. Except for Tang San, no one probably knows how many conspiracies have not yet emerged. This is the real world, not the original novel that follows the script and never changes.

Tang San, the newly born Dong Xi, is actually a living old Bidden. As long as he senses something is wrong, he may make other arrangements at any time.

After figuring out all this, Ye Qing couldn't help but look grim.

Very good, the difficulty of the dungeon has been increased again.

But the good news is that Tang Ya has Bei Bei to help him attract the BOSS's hatred. After the two of them confirm their relationship, this pit probably won't be placed in front of Ye Qing.

"Let's take it one step at a time." This was all Ye Qing could do.

After looking back at Bei Bei who was asking Tang Ya about her well-being, Ye Qing curled the corner of his mouth, quickly hid far away, came to the registration office, and placed his recommendation letter with the red Shrek logo of the inner courtyard in front of the senior who was registering.

As members of Shrek Celestial Dragon, Ye Qing and Beibei did not need to get any recommendation letters from the main city when they were admitted to the outer courtyard. Instead, they could ask Lao Deng behind them to get a recommendation letter from Shrek Inner Court, which was more useful than any recommendation letter from the main city.

The senior who was working hard to earn credits by helping to register students' information was immediately filled with awe when he saw the red Shrek logo.

Before taking on this task, they asked their respective teachers about the different forms of recommendation letters among the major empires to avoid people falsifying information and getting away with it. After all, it's not like no one has tried to take advantage of loopholes before.

As recommendation letters are unique to the Inner Court, they are their main record items.

As long as the logo on the recommendation letter is the red Shrek, it means that this person is either recommended by seniors currently studying in the inner courtyard, or is the descendant of a senior member of Shrek.

No matter which one it was, he could stand in awe.

After all, this is the inner courtyard.

"Hello, junior. The recommendation letter is correct. Here is your dormitory key. The class division information will be released in a week. Then you can go to the bulletin board in Poseidon Square to see which class you will be assigned to." The senior in the purple school uniform explained seriously and handed over a bunch of keys.

There was a small tag hanging on the key with the number 234 on it.

The number of this dormitory is quite auspicious.

"Junior, this dormitory is one of the better ones on the second floor, both in terms of location and facilities." Seeing Ye Qing looking at the tag on the key curiously, the senior student in purple first glanced around quietly, then explained in a low voice.

Ye Qing raised his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully: "I see, thank you for your kindness, senior. My name is Ye Qing, and I am very happy to meet you."

Senior Zi Yi chuckled and shook the hand that Ye Qing extended. "Haha, this is all arranged by the academy! My name is Li Zhiyi. If you have any trouble in the outer courtyard, you can come find me!"

"Then please take care of me, Senior Li."

"Take care of each other, haha..."

……

"It's quite interesting." Walking on the way to the dormitory building, Ye Qing recalled what Li Zhiyi had just said, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Just as he had guessed before, after four thousand years of development, the outer courtyard of Shrek Academy had long since changed. It had basically become a place for gilding and making friends, similar to the Yuexuan that Tang Yuehua had created ten thousand years ago.

Even the essence is similar.

Yuexuan only accepts noble disciples. Judging from the requirement of a recommendation letter from the main city in the outer courtyard, it is basically impossible for commoners to get one except for noble disciples.

Apart from a few good city lords who really care about the people and are willing to discover talents from the common people and send them to Shrek for training, how many common people can successfully obtain the recommendation letter from the main city?

Oh, no, judging from the situation during the Peerless Tang Sect period, without the Spirit Hall where the entire continent could awaken their spirits for free, it was the same whether civilians could awaken their spirits or not.

Therefore, those who can enter the Outer College have some background in their families. It is not so much an academy as it is a platform for gilding and communication. Shrek’s top management basically does not pay much attention to the affairs of the Outer College.

Unless a genius really appears in the outer courtyard who is enough to alarm them.

Moon and Ye Feng probably chose to let Ye Qing study in the external college with this in mind. They have already trained Ye Qing as the future leader of Shrek, so he naturally cannot be too withdrawn.

You have to build your own squad, form your own team, and then fight your way up from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard, and finally achieve high enough scores in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Competition and accumulate enough prestige.

Just like Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan was six years older than Ye Qing and Bei Bei. She was just seventeen years old at that time, but her soul power level had reached level sixty-one, and she had been admitted to the inner courtyard with her own strength.

This year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition will have Zhang Lexuan as the team captain to participate in the Douling Empire competition.

Without Huo Yuhao, the troublemaker, the Soul Emperor would already be the top boss in the Soul Fighting Competition. Together with the six Soul King teammates, the Shrek team would basically be able to sweep the other teams and become the final champion.

It was through the accumulation of these little things that Zhang Lexuan finally became the senior sister respected by everyone in the inner courtyard.

If Ye Qing wants to accumulate enough prestige, he must build up his reputation step by step like Zhang Lexuan. The Outer Courtyard is the starting point of his fame.

Chapter 48: The Speedster's Domain

In the next few days, the outer courtyard became completely lively.

The period of time when Shrek Academy recruits students every year is the busiest time in Shrek City. The number of first-year students enrolled each year alone can reach thousands.

Add to that those who wanted to catch a glimpse of Shrek and came to sightsee and join in the fun, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the entire outer courtyard was packed with people.

This is also the reason why Shrek Academy asked the students to help as the teachers alone could not handle the workload.

However, Ye Qing didn't really care whether the External College was lively or not. After all, he had lived in Shrek Academy for nearly ten years, and he had visited the External College enrollment in previous years.

To put it bluntly, that's it.

Compared to the noisy outside world, Ye Qing prefers to practice on his own in a quiet dormitory.

Just like what Li Zhiyi said, Dormitory No. 234 is really good. After seeing other dormitories, I can clearly feel that this dormitory has a larger space and a better environment.

There is a row of lush osmanthus trees outside the window. You can imagine how fragrant this room will be when the osmanthus flowers are in full bloom.

Moreover, the location is facing the sun and has plenty of light. For a soul master with light attribute like Ye Qing, it is indeed a good place.

If you look further away, you can also see the sparkling Poseidon Lake.

Although the facilities in the room are the same, with standard Shrek-style stingy facilities, apart from two hard beds, there are only two medium-sized wardrobes and a table, and there is a bathroom without hot water on the balcony.

Ok……

Ye Qing’s comment was that the dormitories for employees who worked 996 hours a day to fix screws in their previous life were better than this.

unbelievable.

However, Ye Qing didn't care much about it. As a light-attribute soul master, controlling his soul power to allow his light to generate heat was already a basic operation. Although it was not as convenient as a fire-attribute soul master, it was still no problem to heat water.

You can go to the toilet and get cold water to warm yourself up, so you don't have to go to the big bathhouse with others, and you don't have to compete with a group of people for the toilet.

Although the conditions are a bit difficult, practicing is the same everywhere.

Ye Qing could only sigh and then clean the dormitory first.

"Second soul skill, Holy Light Shuttle!" Ye Qing shouted softly, and three soul rings lit up on his body. Then he turned into a stream of light, holding a broom and walking in the dormitory like a god of war.

Countless afterimages kept flashing in the dormitory. Ye Qing waved the broom leisurely in his hand. At the extreme speed, all the dust in the dormitory was swept out by the broom, and finally a small pile of garbage formed at the door.

Ten seconds later, all the afterimages disappeared at the same time, and Ye Qing's real body appeared at the door.

But after he stopped, his body shook slightly and his face looked a little pale.

"Well, the control is pretty good!" Looking at the small pile of dust in front of him, Ye Qing put down the broom in his hand with satisfaction.

As early as when he obtained the Holy Light Shuttle soul skill, Ye Qing had thought about using extreme inertia to launch an attack.

However, at that time, his control over this soul skill was still relatively weak, and he could only move in a straight line. Once he turned, he would easily lose control and deviate from the direction.

This kind of rough control is definitely not acceptable. Everyone can accelerate in a straight line, but only when you go around a curve can you really accelerate.

From then on, Ye Qing had one more training goal, which was to accurately master the speed and angle of the holy light so that he could perfectly control this skill.

He first accelerated at a straight-line speed, and then slowly sensed the changes in his soul skills during the movement, from not actively controlling it in the beginning, to subtle control, small-amplitude control, normal control, and complete control, he increased his proficiency step by step.

If he had just acquired this soul skill, it would be impossible for him to move freely in the small dormitory room. He would have stepped on the accelerator and flew out long ago. How could he move around leisurely and clean the room at the same time?

However, this speedster's perspective made Ye Qing feel like he had become "Quicksilver" and "The Flash". In the speedster's realm, it seemed that everything he saw was still.
