When Cai Yue'er released her Martial Soul and even used a Soul Skill, Zhuo Shi had already decided to intervene.
After all, he was worried Cai Yue'er might hurt Mu Han.
Personally, Mu Han was Zhuo Shi's grand-student.
From the Academy's perspective, Mu Han was also someone they needed to win over.
Not to mention his Beast Soul Weaponization Project.
Just the fact that Mu Han could Spirit Forge at thirteen was enough for Shrek Academy to make all sorts of special arrangements for him.
The Academy had spared no effort in training blacksmiths over the years.
Outstanding blacksmiths even received extra points on their entrance exams.
Shrek Academy's goal was to nurture a Divine Craftsman.
And Mu Han was that promising candidate. Naturally, Zhuo Shi couldn't let Cai Yue'er hurt him.
But no one could have imagined that Mu Han's punch would send Cai Yue'er flying, and even make her spit blood.
Scrabbling at the rubble around her, Cai Yue'er struggled to crawl out of the wall.
She had absolutely not underestimated her opponent. She had used her Martial Soul and even a Soul Skill.
Yet she had still been sent flying. She hadn't even been a speed bump.
Wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, she knew she had completely humiliated herself.
Fine, she was done holding back!
Beneath the silver moon's light, crystal-clear silver specks appeared across her body.
Brilliant arcs of silver light unfurled from her, one after another.
A pair of enormous silver wings spread behind her.
As a silver circlet like a crown settled on her head, her full head of silver hair gradually turned dark.
Her sagging face grew taut again, and in the blink of an eye, she became a peerlessly beautiful woman.
Then, the next moment, that beautiful woman was run over by the big truck.
Why had Mu Han learned Zhuo Shi's Blood-Qi Circulation Method?
Wasn't it to pair it with the Bloodthirsty Water Blade's effect?
His Martial Soul was Gold-Water Mutual Containment.
His fourth Soul Skill came from the Three-Legged Golden Toad and let him control metal.
So the Full Risk Semi-Trailer he formed with his fourth Soul Skill also carried the Bloodthirsty Water Blade's effect.
In short, it ignored defense.
When Elder Cai hadn't used her Battle Armor, the impact had sent her flying.
Now that she had put on her Battle Armor, she hadn't been knocked away. She'd become a speed bump instead.
This was the thing that had killed Mu Han in his previous life.
It was known as Chinese-Style Iaijutsu.
The original story had mentioned that when a power-type Titled Douluo broke through to Level 90, a punch with a force of one hundred thousand kilograms was the baseline.
Generally, a power-type Three-Word Battle Armor Master could also reach that level.
Elder Cai was a Three-Word Battle Armor Master at the Titled Douluo level, and even a Super Douluo.
But she wasn't a power-type fighter.
If she could defend against it, that would be one thing.
But now this Hundred-Ton King possessed the absolute property of "ignoring defense."
She'd been turned into a speed bump just like that.
Her condition was truly miserable.
Her Battle Armor was in tatters, with many sections already damaged.
Even if it could be repaired, it wouldn't return to its original state, and its power would certainly diminish.
But now was no time to mourn the Battle Armor.
Shen Yi did her best to keep Elder Cai alive, while Zhuo Shi rushed to the Sea God Pavilion to ask the Holy Spirit Douluo for help.
Heaven-Propping Douluo Yun Ming had been talking with the Holy Spirit Douluo.
When he heard Zhuo Shi's account, he thought the old man was joking.
What did he mean, a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor had wrecked Cai Yue'er's Three-Word Battle Armor and nearly killed her?
Even Ya Li hadn't taken him seriously, assuming the old man was talking nonsense.
Still, the couple were both very interested in this Mu Han, so they went to see for themselves.
Only then did they discover Cai Yue'er, battered and bloody.
People always said Battle Armor had to merge with its Soul Master.
But now, the fragments of her Battle Armor had truly merged with her flesh and blood.
As Ya Li took over the treatment, she asked what had happened.
Shen Yi, who had barely managed to keep Elder Cai alive, let out a breath of relief and recounted the whole affair in detail.
After hearing it, Ya Li was utterly at a loss for words over Cai Yue'er's behavior.
If she didn't want to accept an apprenticeship, then she could simply refuse. What reason was there for a dignified Sea God Pavilion Elder to retaliate over it?
On the other hand, Mu Han might be powerful, but his personality was a little too fierce.
And with a defiant student like him, that rebellious streak would only grow stronger as his strength increased.
Still, Shrek had taught students even more defiant than him.
Besides, Shrek took pride in its motto of nurturing monsters.
They weren't afraid of students with attitude. They were afraid of mediocrity.
So Yun Ming was quite confident he could rein in Mu Han's rebellious streak.
After making sure Cai Yue'er was out of danger, he went to find Mu Han.
At that moment, Mu Han was taking Xu Xiaoyan to the Spirit Pagoda.
Before Gu Yue came to Shrek City, she had already asked around for Xu Xiaoyan at the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters.
Shrek students could obtain Soul Spirits not only by purchasing them, but also through the Soul Spirit Tower.
After all, Thousand-Year Soul Spirits were not only extremely expensive to buy outright, but the selection was random, making it difficult to get the one you wanted.
But the Spirit Pagoda Headquarters had a Soul Spirit Tower. Those who entered and cleared its trials could obtain a Soul Spirit at half price.
There were two kinds of people who could enter the tower. One was the Spirit Pagoda's own people, like Gu Yue.
The other was a genius with a special talent. Once the Spirit Pagoda verified their identity and approved them, they could enter the tower too.
They had first gone to take the entrance exam precisely to obtain Shrek student status.
That would make the Spirit Pagoda's approval process easier.
But even without that status, given Xu Xiaoyan's talent, she could still get in. It would just be more troublesome.
Just then, a wave of pressure descended, pinning Mu Han in place.
But Xu Xiaoyan, who was right beside him, didn't notice a thing.
"What's this?" Gu Yue sensed it, and also felt how powerful the newcomer was.
A powerhouse from Shrek Academy? They were actually going to bully someone younger and attack him directly?
Mu Han had badly injured Elder Cai this time, but Gu Yue wasn't worried that Shrek Academy would retaliate afterward.
After all, a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor had badly injured a Super Douluo-level Three-Word Battle Armor Master.
If word got out, Shrek Academy would be the one to lose face.
But if Shrek Academy retaliated on the spot, outsiders might never find out.
"World." Just then, four-colored light shone in Mu Han's left palm, and he locked onto someone from a distance.
Mu Han's first three Soul Rings converged, transforming into a black Soul Ring.
He locked onto Yun Ming, who had released the pressure on him from afar.
The world formed from water, fire, earth, and wind directly cut off Yun Ming's pressure.
Mu Han swung his fist, and liquid metal condensed into a Full Risk Semi-Trailer that charged straight at Yun Ming.
Yun Ming had only wanted to give Mu Han a warning.
Mu Han's punch was certainly terrifying,
but Yun Ming had already learned what had happened from Zhuo Shi. It was nothing more than an offshoot of the Blood-Qi Circulation Method.
As long as he suppressed Mu Han, Mu Han naturally wouldn't be able to manipulate liquid metal and form a big truck.
But Yun Ming hadn't expected Mu Han's control Soul Skill to activate instantly.
And its control was so powerful that it could lock onto him from a distance in an instant.
It could even cut off his pressure?
