Scarlet King's Decision; the Unspoken Rule of the Soul Master World
Thinking of this, the Scarlet King lowered his three heads and apologized to Di Tian:
"I'm sorry, it seems I almost caused a disaster. Since this happened to me, I'm not a beast who's afraid to take responsibility. Now I have no face to stay in the Star Dou Great Forest any longer."
Next, I will take the initiative to apologize to that powerful figure, hoping that he won't implicate the Soul Beast Clan because of this.
"... Sigh~".
Upon hearing this, Di Tian was about to say something, but after thinking for a moment, he sighed and acquiesced to the Scarlet King's decision.
After all, when the Scarlet King made that suggestion, it was already unacceptable to all the Spirit Beast. His withdrawal from the Core Circle the Star Dou Great Forest had become inevitable, since everyone here respected the Silver Dragon King, the sovereign of the Spirit Beast, from the bottom of their hearts.
Therefore, even if Di Tian doesn't drive away the Scarlet King, this grudge will still exist and will eventually erupt. Rather than letting it become a bomb, it's better to eliminate it sooner rather than later.
After weighing the options, Di Tian decided not to stop the Scarlet King any further.
As for the suggestion to seek an apology from Wu Tong, none of the Ferocious Beast refuted it.
After all, they dare not gamble.
That's right, they didn't dare gamble on whether Wu Tong knew about the Scarlet King's plans.
After all, those Spirit Masters have all sorts of strange and wonderful Martial Soul. What if there is one Martial Soul that can let Wu Tong know about this matter?
Even if the possibility is extremely small, or even close to zero.
They dared not gamble, because if something went wrong and Wu Tong became enraged, the consequences would be far beyond what they could bear in their current state.
Therefore, even if there is only the slightest sign, the Ferocious Beast must nip it in the bud as soon as possible.
Therefore, the idea of Scarlet King taking the initiative to apologize was actually their best option.
Even so, Di Tian and the other beasts were not in a good mood.
After all, they had worked and lived together for so long, and this time, the Crimson Wang Ye did such a rebellious thing for the sake of the Soul Beast Clan.
Now that something's happened, they're letting the Scarlet King take the place, which makes Di Tian and the others feel like they're betraying their friends.
Beast, beast...
They call them beasts, but beasts have feelings too!
Just when all the Ferocious Beast felt guilty.
A clear and melodious voice came from the bottom of the Lake of Life.
"Di Tian, bring the Scarlet King to see me."
Upon hearing this, all the Ferocious Beast immediately became respectful, even the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, who was always fearless, put away its petty nature in an instant.
"Yes, my lord." ×N.
——
There are two sides to the story.
Let's shift the focus to the other side.
What are Wu Tong and the others doing on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest?
They are watching a good show.
Wu Tong never expected that Shrek Academy would forcibly seize Meng Yiran's Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, a scene that is the most classic in Douluo fanfiction, and he would happen to witness it.
Although in the story, Shrek and his friends claim that they won the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent from Meng Yiran.
But in essence, it was nothing more than Zhao Wuji taking advantage of Dragon Duke Meng Shu's absence to forcefully snatch it from Snake Granny Chao Tianxiang.
No matter how you try to embellish it, this is an unavoidable fact.
However, this is also an unwritten Rule in the Soul Master World: the strong are respected.
If Zhao Wuji is confident that he can withstand the Dragon Lord's revenge, he could simply kill Snake Granny and Grandma, and forcibly seize the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent without any problem.
Although Wu Tong didn't particularly like this unspoken Rule, he didn't comment on it.
However, none of these things interested Wu Tong, since he always adhered to the principle of minding his own business.
Wu Tong has always maintained an attitude of ignoring such unspoken Rule as long as they don't apply to him.
What interests Wu Tong most right now is that the plot from the original novel has actually come to pass.
Is it a coincidence, or fate?
Wu Tong muttered to himself, then shook his head to clear his mind before beginning to observe the students of the Shrek Academy.
Because of this little butterfly, the plot of the Douluo Continent has been completely altered.
However, when Wu Tong looked at Shrek Academy's group just now, he found that it was still a lineup of one teacher and seven students.
This surprised Wu Tong. Could it be that the main characters would reunite?
Thinking of this, Wu Tong began to observe carefully, wanting to see if the main characters could still gather together under the interference of this "outsider".
When Wu Tong looked closely, the true appearances of Shrek and his group were instantly and clearly displayed before Wu Tong.
First, there's the guy with the most obvious and easily recognizable appearance: short, chubby, and cramped with red mohawk hair, looking like a giant Xiao Pang.
The moment Wu Tong saw this guy, he successfully recognized him as Ma Hongjun, one of the Shrek Seven Monsters from the original story, the Evil Fire Phoenix.
However, compared to the Phoenix God who would later become dejected and regretful in the Divine Realm, he was now just a Xiao Pang with no sense of responsibility and no way to control his own Evil Fire.
Moreover, without the help of the Immortal Herb, it will be difficult for this Xiao Pang to successfully break through to the Soul Saint, let alone become a god.
Poor temperament, insufficient aptitude, and serious hidden dangers in his Martial Soul...
All the negative buffs combined are nothing to worry about.
Looking at the Xiao Pang who was leering at Meng Yiran with lewd eyes, Wu Tong immediately labeled him as someone not to be trifled with.
After that, Wu Tong stopped paying attention to Ma Hongjun and shifted his gaze to the blond-haired man in white standing to the side.
Golden hair, heterochromia—such obvious characteristics of the Star Luo Imperial Family, and being at the Shrek Academy, the result is naturally quite clear.
This person is Dai Mubai, Evil Eye White Tiger Third Prince of Star Luo Empire, who fears his brother's power and worries that he will die because of the family's ancestral precepts.
However, her character wasn't very good either. Before Zhu Zhuqing came to the Shrek Academy, she was a womanizer and a lecher.
Although things changed after Zhu Zhuqing arrived.
But that was just a facade; in reality, he was always a hopeless scoundrel.
This can be seen from the fact that ten thousand years later he would aid and abet the evildoer and help Tang San control his own bloodline descendants.
He is a hypocrite with poor character, skilled at disguise, incompetent, and cowardly; he is not worth worrying about.
After glancing at Dai Mubai, Wu Tong looked away with disdain.
As soon as I turned my head, a pair of headlights came into view.
Those legs, that light, that waist...
