Summoning

So they still had to fight. Xu Xiao had already known that Mu En had returned to his peak as a Limit Douluo, but he was unsure whether Mu En had stepped halfway into the God Domain.

Becoming a god required comprehending laws. Though a Limit Douluo and the Pseudo-God Realm seemed close, the gap between them was even greater than the gap between ordinary people and soul masters.

As long as one comprehended even a trace of a law, one counted as a Pseudo-God. Under normal circumstances, it would take three Limit Douluo experts joining forces just to survive against one.

This was Mu En's test, and also the condition for whether their cooperation could continue. It would be disadvantageous to send Elder Zu to fight him only when victory was assured.

Xu Xiao glanced at his final remaining Summon Count. He had originally planned to use it after ascending the throne.

Last time, after the Snow Empress rebuilt herself as a human, she had already shown signs of awakening. Xu Xiao guessed that her level after rebuilding would not exceed that of a Soul Sage.

He could only summon. He called forth the system.

"Summon!"

[ Ding~ ]

[ The following are available summoning options. Only one may be selected. ]

[ 1. Wu Dalang, Spirit Wok (Level 29 Soul Grandmaster. He will appear with his wife, Pan Jinlian. The host may experience the pleasures of being Ximen Official.) ]

You were a Summoning System, not some woman-hunting system.

Xu Xiao was somewhat speechless and could only continue to the next option.

[ 2. Ximen Qing, Spirit Little Ximen Qing (Level 39 Soul Elder. He will appear with his plaything, Pan Jinlian. The host may experience the joy of a threesome.) ]

Could this system just get lost? Xu Xiao's anger rose. After so many summons, this was truly a first.

"Stupid system, give me some normal strong experts instead of making jokes here!"

[ 3. Hundred Thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry ]

[ All personnel's spirit: Mysterious Ice Battle Spear ]

[ Ordinary soldiers: Level 51 Spirit Kings (will appear with Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Dragon Colts and Level 6 Soul Tool Heavy Armor) ]

[ Squad Leaders: Level 58 Spirit Kings to Level 62 Spirit Emperors (command ten-man squads) ]

[ Centurions: Level 66 Spirit Emperors to Level 69 Spirit Emperors (command one hundred men) ]

[ Colonels: Level 71 Soul Sages to Level 79 Soul Sages (command one thousand men) ]

[ Commandants: Level 81 Soul Douluos to Level 89 Soul Douluos (command ten thousand men). Note: the Spirit Domain formed by one hundred thousand men can kill a Limit Douluo. ]

This option immediately captivated Xu Xiao. If he did not have to fight Mu En right now, he truly would not want to give it up.

With the resources he currently possessed, those ten Soul Douluos would only need a few years to become ten Titled Experts!

"System, can this option be saved for the next summon?"

[ Host's wish detected. It has been retained among the next summoning options~ ]

The damn system had finally acted like a person for once. Xu Xiao began examining the final option. If it were merely an ordinary Limit Douluo, he would directly choose the third option.

[ 4. Bai Qi, Killing God Sword ]

[ Cultivation: Demigod Realm ]

[ Bai Qi was a renowned military strategist and commander of the Qin Kingdom during the Warring States period. During the Battle of Yique, he decisively defeated the allied armies of the Han Kingdom, Wei Kingdom, and Eastern Zhou, beheading two hundred and forty thousand enemies. During the Battle of Changping, he decisively defeated the Zhao Kingdom army and buried alive more than four hundred thousand surrendered Zhao soldiers. ]

[ Note: Due to killing too many people, he has comprehended the Law of Killing. ]

He had not expected it to be Bai Qi. Later, he could have him serve as the commander of the Hundred Thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry.

How strong would Bai Qi and the Hundred Thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry be in this world?

Xu Xiao did not even dare imagine it, yet he could not suppress the joy in his heart. His system truly was excellent.

"Bai Qi's Law of Killing would make him the Killing God if he eventually became a god. I wonder whether he would be stronger or weaker than the Asura God of the God Realm."

Of course, Xu Xiao was thinking of the previous Asura God. Could trash like Tang San, who could not even properly control his strength after inheriting the Asura God position, compare with Bai Qi?

He was not worthy!

After all, whether in comics or the various fanworks from Xu Xiao's previous life, everyone called him Sea God Tang San. In Douluo Continent, this man had also followed the path of the Control System.

After becoming a god, the technique he used most often was the God Realm's strongest control skill, Unfixed Wind Waves.

The Asura God King had clearly followed a powerful assault path. Even now, Xu Xiao suspected that Tang San might have been a vessel prepared by the Asura God King.

He had gone out to roam and seek opportunities himself, so after his death, he could directly seize Tang San's body through the Asura God position!

After all, Xu Xiao already felt that inheriting the Sea God position was the absolute limit for someone like Tang San.

Sometimes, Xu Xiao even felt that the Sea God had probably been in a hurry to toss aside his godhood and flee, while the Asura God persuaded him from the side.

Otherwise, with all the geniuses born on Douluo Continent, did trash like Tang San really think he could become a god without the Asura God paving the way for him?

"Choose option four and summon Bai Qi!"

Xu Xiao intended to have Bai Qi appear directly at Shrek Academy.

I need to tell him to hold back a little. Mu En cannot die yet.

At this moment, Mu En saw Xu Xiao suddenly look at him with that pitying gaze in the video and felt somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that he wants this old man to show mercy later?

Mu En was a qualified Sea God Pavilion Master, not some naive fool. If the other side's strongest expert could not defeat him—

He would immediately step into the Pseudo-God Realm and decapitate all of the Sun Moon Empire's high-level combat power.

You were trying to take over my Shrek Academy. If you could not win, then naturally you had to endure the wrath of a Pseudo-God!

"Rest assured, sir. This old man will show mercy when he makes his move later."

Xu Xiao nearly laughed when he heard that. Could this old man think Elder Zu would be fighting him?

He said confidently, "There is no need for mercy. You will only have a chance to survive if you use your full strength."

Good, good, good! This old man had intended to leave you some dignity, yet the New Lord of Sun Moon was this arrogant. Mu En had already decided that once the battle began, he would swiftly enter the Pseudo-God Realm and seal Elder Zu's Soul Power for ten years or so.

In the end, he still decided to vent his anger on Elder Zu. Shrek was, after all, an academy, and it had not yet caused the continent harm like the Evil Soul Masters had.

Before completely falling out with Sun Moon, Mu En did not want to act personally.

"Fine! Then let us begin quickly. Shall we fight here?"

Mu En casually looked at Elder Zu, who was fiddling with his Soul Tools. Later, he would simply find some excuse to take this fellow's Level 9 Soul Tool and Rare Metal as well.

He was already imagining the magnificent scene of Shrek's Soul Tool Department advancing decades ahead after obtaining these advanced Soul Tools.

Unbeknownst to him, outside, in Shrek's Inner Court—

A man in military attire stood there, his full head of black hair drifting elegantly in the air.

He looked to be in his thirties, and his perfectly controlled killing intent did not leak even the slightest trace.

"Is the Golden Tree in this direction?"

The Inner Court Teacher looked at this suddenly appearing middle-aged man, who seemed refined and easygoing. Though he found it strange, he still pointed Bai Qi in the right direction, believing him to be a new Inner Court Teacher.

At first, he had not wanted to reveal the Golden Tree's location, since only those who had served at the academy for many years and gained its trust could know it. Before he could rebuke him, however, he met that calm and unfathomable Divine Sense.

Before a Demigod, mortals had no secrets whatsoever.

"It is over there." After mechanically pointing out the direction, he came to his senses and found that Bai Qi had already vanished.

"Strange. It feels like someone spoke to me just now, but why can't I remember what he looked like?"

Mu En had already arrived before Elder Zu, delight on his face.

"Sir, are you ready?"

Zu Chongzhi smiled. "You will not be fighting this old man. Your opponent is over there!"

As he spoke, he tore open a corner of the Yellow Horn Tree Space.

Mu En looked in the direction he indicated.

A refined and easygoing middle-aged man stood silently a few millimeters above the surface of Sea God Lake, his hands clasped behind his back.
