Really Don't Want a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Anymore

It must be said, the saying that "an old man who refuses to die is a thief" is truly correct.

The fundamental reason for Mu En's current posture is that he wants their Nine Treasures Glazed Sect to keep the Holy Spirit Cult in check, or more accurately, to keep Ye Xishui in check.

He is very clear that because of Ye Guyi, the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect is destined to clash with the Holy Spirit Cult.

The other party is precisely leveraging this fact.

Mu En is quite at ease regarding Long Xiaoyao.

But regarding that woman, Ye Xishui, he is truly uneasy.

The others within Shrek Academy do not know of the Holy Spirit Cult's existence, but Mu En is very clear about it.

This is a tacit understanding.

A tacit understanding that Mu En is certain Ning Que can perceive.

Perhaps, ever since the last time Ye Guyi helped Mu En with his treatment, he had guessed a few things. Combined with the movements and direction of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect over these years, after some investigation, Mu En was able to arrive at the answer: the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect also knows of the Holy Spirit Cult's existence.

Furthermore, he is certain that before Ye Guyi has fully matured, or before the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect possesses the means to truly contend with a Limit Douluo, Ning Que will not let him die.

Even if he were to encounter some accident and seek help from Ning Que again, Ning Que would still find a way to keep him lingering on.

In this way, he gains some extra time to carry out comprehensive reforms for Shrek Academy.

"This..."

After hearing Ning Que explain the cause and effect in detail, Jin Heng was dumbfounded.

What kind of people are these?

How are their brains wired!

He has lived for so many years, why doesn't he have a brain like that?

"Elder Jin, this Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone is something I requested for Jin Sheng. Once you receive it, keep it with you. When a suitable opportunity arises, you can give it to Jin Sheng."

"Do not record this Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone in the sect's archives."

Once Ning Que said this, Jin Heng did not know how to express his gratitude.

One must know that reporting it to the sect and not reporting it are two completely different concepts.

The head soul bone on Jin Sheng was purchased with the sect's help; if one day Jin Sheng grows old, that soul bone must be returned because it was bought by the sect, not bestowed by it.

If the soul bone is not recorded or reported to the sect, then when Jin Sheng passes away in the future, this soul bone can be treated as a legacy soul bone for their lineage, becoming entirely private property.

"Don't be in such a hurry to be moved, Elder. I have conditions. You will need to do some things for me, waiting for my arrangements, to make certain people lose their reputations and wish they were dead!"

Ning Que spoke softly, yet his tone was filled with killing intent.

At the Sea God Pavilion meeting, he helped Zhou Yi off the hook because he didn't want anyone in Shrek Academy to share the responsibility, but that does not mean he has let Zhou Yi off the hook.

Next, there will be plenty of ways to let her know what despair is.

You, Mu En, want to reform? I will fully cooperate with your reforms, and while I'm at it, help you remove a malignant tumor.

Of course, Zhou Yi is just an appetizer; Yan Shaozhe is the main course.

"Young Master, just give the order; I will give it my all!"

Jin Heng's tone was filled with determination.

Afterward, Ning Que gave a few more instructions before returning to rest.

The next day, following the deliberations of Shrek Academy, the assessment continued.

The difference was that the others had already been eliminated; this time, it was a melee between Ning Tian, Jin Sheng, Xie Huanyue, Xiao Xiao, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, Tang Ya... those who had teamed up yesterday.

Ning Que still came to watch.

What he didn't expect was that Huo Yuhao was actually the first to be eliminated.

This was truly unexpected.

After Huo Yuhao was eliminated, he walked toward him in a rare display of initiative, greeted him, and sat down nearby to continue watching the match.

"Interesting."

Ning Que sized up Huo Yuhao. When he saw the bracelet that had appeared on the boy's right wrist, he found it even more intriguing.

This bracelet was actually crafted from Ten Thousand Year Warm Jade Marrow.

Ten Thousand Year Warm Jade Marrow is extremely rare; even in the treasury of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, there is only a thumb-sized piece left today.

Its function is quite special: it can enhance mental power and nourish the soul.

If such an item appeared on someone else, Ning Que wouldn't find it strange.

But the fact that it appeared on Huo Yuhao makes one think deeply.

Could it be that he has had another fortuitous encounter?

Ning Que is very clear about one thing: Electrolux was the guide prepared by the plane's consciousness for Huo Yuhao. When he went to intercept him back then, it was just an attempt, and he never imagined he would actually succeed.

Having lost his guide, would the plane's consciousness make new arrangements?

He remembered that in the original story, Electrolux once said that his soul fragments were not limited to just one piece.

"Could it be that the plane's consciousness has arranged another Electrolux for Huo Yuhao, or perhaps something else entirely..."

As Ning Que pondered, he felt he should find an opportunity to have Guyi come out of seclusion so that Elder Yi could sense her.

Following that, several more people were continuously eliminated.

Although the Martial Souls of Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinyan were powerful, their overall strength was ultimately lacking, and they were quickly eliminated.

Next, Jin Sheng went all out, and with the support of Ning Tian, directly eliminated Bei Bei and Tang Ya.

Xu Sanshi should not have been eliminated, but his "simp" nature flared up; in order to protect Jiang Nannan, he gave Wu Feng the opportunity to eliminate him.

In this way, only eight people remained on the field.

Jiang Nannan saw the seven people on the opposite side teaming up with a shared hatred for the enemy, and even though she felt immense reluctance in her heart, she could only choose to concede at this moment.

Thus, the reserve team for the Seven Devils was selected.

They were Ning Tian, Jin Sheng, Wu Feng, Xie Huanyue, Xiao Xiao, Wang Dong, and Nanmen Yun'er!

This result was something no one at Shrek Academy had expected.

They were even less able to accept it.

Among the reserve members of the Seven Devils, not a single one was a direct disciple of Shrek.

The most critical point was that among these people, apart from Wang Dong, the other six were all from the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.

If it weren't for Mu En forcibly issuing the order to settle the matter, the many Title Douluo of Shrek Academy would have already gone mad over this alone.

"Why couldn't you be a bit more tactful?"

Seeing this scene, although there was a hint of complaint in Ning Que's tone, his face carried a trace of a smile.

Since Mu En wanted to carry out reforms, he would cooperate with him, and incidentally help the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect accumulate some fame.

It could also be considered a trial for these up-and-coming talents.

As for risking their lives, that was naturally out of the question.

"It seems I don't even have the qualifications to participate in the Soul Master Tournament yet, do I?"

Ning Que suddenly came back to his senses; although he was a core disciple of the Soul Tool department, he was not an official member of the Shrek Seven Devils.

In other words, he was not eligible to participate in this competition.

He was very much looking forward to seeing what kind of bizarre maneuvers Shrek Academy would pull next in the face of this situation.

He hoped they wouldn't send him any more Soul Bones; he really didn't want them anymore.

If he kept fleecing Shrek Academy, he would truly become their mortal enemy.
