In the shadow beneath the canopy,
Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo stared wide-eyed at the three Dominator Vanguards that had suddenly appeared, crying out in disbelief.
"Dragons?! They really are dragons!"
Snake Lance turned to look at Lin Feng as though he were some kind of monster.
"These must be the Dragon Soldiers that kid Lin Feng mentioned."
Porcupinefish Douluo's hair stood on end, his scalp tingling as he sucked in a cold breath.
"Damn! Reckless Man, the bloodlines of these three dragon soul beasts are definitely extraordinary. That dragon might is terrifying."
As Beast Spirit Soul Masters, the two of them could sense more clearly than anyone else the suppression from the deepest parts of the three purple dragons' bloodlines.
They exchanged a glance, and each saw utter shock in the other's eyes.
"What kind of martial soul does this Small Money Bag even have? His first hundred-year soul ring somehow produced three soul skills, and now he can even summon high-level dragon soul beasts out of thin air?"
"Could it be... that this martial soul is of an even higher grade than the Young Master's God Rank Angel Martial Soul?"
"Hahaha, who cares what grade it is? At least we no longer need to worry that there's anything suspicious about Lin Feng. After all, what faction would dare use such a supreme treasure as part of a scheme?"
"Mm. Still, Shrek Academy needs investigating. There can't be the slightest oversight when it comes to the Young Master's safety."
Qian Renxue's phoenix eyes widened slightly as she looked at the three thousand-year dragon soul beasts before her, their auras violent and their dragon might oppressive.
The lives and deaths of the three Dragon Soldiers were entirely under her control. Even more absurdly, once the cooldown ended, she could summon another three, making a total of six thousand-year dragon soul beasts.
"Xiao Linzi, you call these Dragon Soldiers?"
She could not help turning back to look at Lin Feng on the branch.
With six thousand-year dragons in hand, she found it hard to imagine what kind of soul beast had forced this boy to flee for his life before.
Seeing the rare look of shock on Qian Renxue's face, Lin Feng curled his lips into a faint smile, secretly pleased.
Wrath of the Dominator was the final trump card he had prepared for his bargain-bin teacher.
Six Dominator Vanguards, stacked with Thornmail and Cloak of the Witch for both physical and magical defense, along with the sustain and attack boosts of the Red and Blue Buffs.
His offense and defense were maxed out. If this still could not take down that ten-thousand-year Golden Flame Sword Tiger, then he truly had no other options.
With the addition of the three Dominator Vanguards, the previously one-sided situation was instantly reversed.
Below, the Golden Flame Sword Tiger saw the dragon soul beasts that had suddenly appeared in midair. Boundless fury immediately blazed within its golden beast eyes as it let out a deafening roar.
In its eyes, these noble dragons, born to stand at the pinnacle of soul beasts, had actually lowered their heads and submitted to humans. They were simply traitors to the soul beast world.
Beast traitors! A disgrace to the entire soul beast world!
The three Dominator Vanguards opened their jaws at once, spewing dark-purple Dark Flame Pillars that collided violently with the golden flames breathed out by the Golden Flame Sword Tiger.
"Boom!"
The two waves of extreme heat collided, warping the air from the burning heat as sizzling explosions rang endlessly through the forest.
Yet even three eighteen-hundred-year Dominator Vanguards were still vastly weaker than a genuine ten-thousand-year soul beast.
The purple flame pillars barely held for two seconds before the Berserk golden fire pillar punched straight through them.
Qian Renxue was not flustered in the slightest. Sensing that the Dominator Vanguard summon cooldown had reset, the corners of her lips lifted as she triggered the soul skill again with a thought.
"If three aren't enough, then I'll bring out three more."
Three more enormous dark vortices unfolded in midair. Accompanied by dragon roars, three Dominator Vanguards burst forth, standing shoulder to shoulder with the first three. Six pairs of scarlet dragon eyes locked firmly onto the Golden Flame Sword Tiger below.
Seeing three more dragon soul beasts appear in the air, the Golden Flame Sword Tiger's fur instantly bristled as it began to think of retreating.
With so many thousand-year dragon hatchlings gathered here, could it have accidentally barged into the nest of some dragon clan?
Wherever dragon hatchlings appeared, a terrifyingly powerful adult dragon would surely be guarding nearby.
At the thought that a ten-thousand-year dragon it might not even be able to resist could be hiding nearby, the Golden Flame Sword Tiger immediately lost all desire to keep fighting. It turned and fled deeper into the dense forest, its tiger tail blazing with golden flames.
"This is going too far!"
Seeing the ten-thousand-year fifth soul ring that was almost hers about to escape, Qian Renxue's phoenix eyes turned cold as she immediately gave an order.
Five Dominator Vanguards moved at her command, forming an encirclement as they chased after the fleeing Golden Flame Sword Tiger. Only one remained behind to protect Lin Feng.
Lin Feng sat cross-legged atop the Dominator Vanguard's broad dragon head, shouting a reminder into the cold wind.
"Teacher, end this quickly! The Dragon Soldiers can only last fifteen minutes. Once the time is up, they'll automatically disappear."
"Don't spare these Dragon Soldiers. If necessary, have them sacrifice themselves to create an opening for you to kill the Golden Flame Sword Tiger. No point wasting them when you can summon new ones after the cooldown ends."
Qian Renxue's lips twitched slightly at his words.
No wonder he called those noble dragon soul beasts Dragon Soldiers. He really treated them like disposable foot soldiers charging into battle.
She said nothing more. Her Angel wings beat fiercely, and her speed surged as she transformed into a streak of golden light chasing after the fleeing Golden Flame Sword Tiger.
Her holy sword slashed out, sending golden sword qi tearing through the air. The burning and slowing effects of Red Sentinel Power clung tightly to the beast, leaving it no chance to escape.
Ten minutes later.
Accompanied by the Golden Flame Sword Tiger's final unwilling and shrill roar, its massive body crashed to the ground, sending dust flying everywhere.
A pitch-black ten-thousand-year soul ring slowly emerged from its corpse, emanating a heavy pressure through the forest.
Qian Renxue sheathed the Angel Holy Sword, her chest rising and falling slightly with the faint breaths of exertion after the fierce battle.
A few streaks of crimson beast blood stained the hem of her gilded dress and the edge of her cheek. Rather than making her look disheveled, they gave her exquisite face a blood-soaked sharpness and brilliant beauty that was both valiant and breathtaking.
Lin Feng quickly leaped down from the dragon's head and hurried over to her. Taking out a clean soft cloth, he stood on tiptoe and carefully reached up to wipe the bloodstains from her cheek.
"Congratulations, Teacher, on successfully killing a ten-thousand-year soul beast at the Soul King level and setting a new record in the soul master world."
When he saw Qian Renxue instinctively trying to lean away, he hurriedly added,
"Hey! Don't move, Teacher. Once the blood dries, it'll be hard to wipe off."
Qian Renxue had intended to pull away, but when she saw the pure focus in his eyes, her movement suddenly halted.
The heart that had been frozen for more than a decade seemed to be slowly warmed by a current of heat. Not only did she stop avoiding him, she even leaned forward slightly, allowing him to wipe the blood from her cheek.
There was not the slightest trace of pride in her captivating gilded phoenix eyes after killing a ten-thousand-year soul beast. She spoke calmly.
"Without your support, and without those six Dominator Vanguards risking their lives to create opportunities for me, I could never have killed this ten-thousand-year Golden Flame Sword Tiger alone."
Even with a God Rank Angel Martial Soul, without Lin Feng's enhancement, she could at most safely hunt a five-thousand-year soul beast.
Lin Feng's support effects were even more outrageous than she had imagined. Her strength had multiplied several times over; it was simply absurd.
She could not help secretly feeling fortunate.
Fortunately, this one-of-a-kind support was now her disciple, firmly in her grasp.
At that thought, the loneliness and exhaustion that had accumulated in her heart during her years undercover in Heaven Dou seemed to vanish by more than half. Looking at the little fellow earnestly wiping her face, she shed all pretense and guard, revealing a stunning smile.
"Perhaps my luck isn't so bad after all."
Golden flecks of light filtering through the forest fell across her smile, as though an iceberg had suddenly melted.
Lin Feng froze completely in place, even forgetting to move the soft cloth in his hand. His heartbeat abruptly skipped, leaving only one thought in his mind.
So beautiful! Damn it, this time I've really fallen for her.
