Three-Eyed Golden Lion!

Deep within the Star Dou Forest.

A small, thin creature, less than a meter tall, with golden fur all over its body, its entire body resembling amber and crystal, shimmering with a radiant quality, slightly resembling a lion but with dragon-like claws, a crimson Soul Beast between its brows, and riding on auspicious clouds, slowly emerged from the grass.

Whoosh~ Whoosh~!

It raised its beautiful nose, carefully sniffing the scent it sensed, and soon its eyes lit up, Shi Xing ran forward!

Splash!

The next instant, the water behind them exploded, and Soul Beast with a pair of huge horns, a bull's head and a snake's body suddenly poked its head out.

"Second brother!!!"

Buzz buzz buzz~!!!

The earth trembled in the next instant, and the trees were pushed aside by the powerful force. Soon after, a huge humanoid Soul Beast with countless dense red lava cracks on its body rushed over from a distance!

"Roar~!!!"

This is a gorilla, a gigantic gorilla.

"Go, find her. Make sure nothing happens to her. Recently, many powerful humans have appeared in the Star Dou Forest. As long as they don't touch her, try to avoid any conflict."

Roar~!!!

With a long roar, the giant gorilla vanished into the dense forest in the blink of an eye.

···

Tap tap tap!!!!

The commotion instantly attracted the attention of countless Soul Grandmaster deep within the forest.

"Your Majesty, the Titan Giant Ape, the king of the forest, has appeared, and moreover, the Spirit Hall has also made a move."

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian'an instantly sat up from her position of lying on her beautiful lap while eating barbecue.

"The King of the Forest?"

"That monkey doesn't count."

"They're nothing but clowns, but... if the Spirit Hall wants them, I think... we can interfere."

Of course, Xu Nian'an didn't necessarily want to oppose the Spirit Hall; it was mainly because the Spirit Hall was ungrateful and rebellious.

The Continent Cup was a great example of this.

The first All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament was a resounding success in the Great Ming Empire.

The Spirit Hall, having gained considerable fame and prestige, turned around and went to the Star Luo Empire a second time, directly defeating the Great Ming Empire.

The Continent Cup, organized by Xu Nian'an, surpassed the Spirit Hall's Soul Master Academy Tournament, prompting the Spirit Hall to try every means to get involved.

They're throwing coins, all of them are Gold Soul Coin.

What Xu Nian'an found most unacceptable was that he hadn't even qualified for the Continent Cup through the channels of the Great Ming Empire.

Tell me, tell me, what is the Spirit Hall trying to do?

He has a rebellious streak.

Therefore, Xu Nian'an also decided to make things difficult for them.

···

Outskirts of the Star Dou Forest!

Rustling sound~!!!

Shrek Academy is currently struggling. Yesterday, due to their lack of unity, Zhao Wuji hung them up for half the night.

I felt a little groggy when I woke up this morning.

"Cheer up!"

Upon seeing this, Zhao Wuji immediately spoke up loudly.

Hiss~! Hiss~! Hiss~!!!

Just then, a series of strange sounds suddenly rang out.

"Zhu Zhuqing, climb the tree!"

Upon hearing Tang San's words, Zhu Zhuqing did not hesitate at all. She immediately Martial Soul Possession and climbed up the tree in no time.

"It's... it's a snake."

"Purple, over six meters!"

Upon hearing this, Tang San narrowed his eyes.

"Oscar, you're lucky. This is a thousand-year- Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent."

Zhao Wuji turned his head and glanced at Tang San.

"You're not bad. Since you know about this Soul Beast, you'll be in charge of organizing this hunt."

"Good."

Upon hearing this, Tang San began to arrange the formation.

"Oh no, it seems to have sensed our presence and is trying to move away!"

After hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, Tang San looked at Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Wu!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~!!!!

With a series of whooshing sounds, Xiao Wu used her teleportation Soul Skill to directly cross the distance and appear in front of the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent.

"Hey!!!"

With a loud shout, the high heel slammed down heavily.

"Hiss~!!!"

The Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, in pain, had no choice but to change course and return to its predetermined path.

"That's exactly what I've been waiting for."

Tang San narrowed his eyes, which turned purple, and slowly extended his right hand.

"First Soul Skill: Blue Silver Grass Entanglement!"

"Ma Hongjun!"

Whoosh!

A pale yellow Soul Ring rose from Ma Hongjun's body, and flames instantly covered the entire Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent.

The intense heat caused the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent to struggle violently.

"Mu Bai!"

Looking at Tang San, a shadow of gloom flashed in Dai Mubai. He had just taken a step forward when the frenzied Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent lashed out with its tail, knocking Dai Mubai over.

Bang!

"Ah!"

Dai Mubai screamed and was sent flying backward.

One wrong step leads to another. Tang San panicked when he saw that Dai Mubai had not suppressed the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent in time.

Due to the scorching of Ma Hongjun's flames, the Blue Silver Grass became brittle, and the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent broke free from the control of the Blue Silver Grass and ran away into the distance.

"Oh no, it's going to get away!"

Boom~!!!

Just as the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent was about to escape, a figure suddenly descended from the sky.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Tracking and Location!"

Bang!

Before long, the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent was on the verge of death.

"What happened?"

"What exactly is going on with you guys?"

"Mu Bai!"

Zhao Wuji was furious. So many people, including two Soul Elder, couldn't even handle a thousand-year-old Soul Beast.

Everything seemed fine until Dai Mubai came along, and that's when things went wrong. One wrong step led to another, and if it weren't for his backup plan, the Soul Beast would have run away long ago.

"Teacher Zhao... Teacher Zhao!"

"This is not my problem!"

After saying that, Dai Mubai immediately looked at Tang San.

"It was you, it must have been you! You knew I was injured, and it was because of your injury that you gave me the most important, the most crucial, final act. Were you trying to embarrass me in front of so many people?"

Upon hearing this, Tang San was instantly stunned.

"No, I'm really sorry, I just thought you had the highest Soul Power."

Smack!

Dai Mubai shoved Tang San hard with his left hand.

"Yes, I have the highest Soul Power, but you're happy that I lost to a Soul Grandmaster like you?"

···

Just as they were arguing fiercely, Xiao Wu, who was watching the show from the back, was suddenly bitten off by a huge lion's head!

"Wa...

The screams immediately drew the attention of everyone else!

Whoosh whoosh~!!

Just then, several people dressed in the uniforms of the Spirit Hall slowly appeared.

"The Pope has ordered: Seize it!"

···

"Xiao Wu!!!"

Tang San was shocked, but before he could react, the sky behind them suddenly darkened.

Zhao Wuji looked up in alarm.

"This... this is!!!"

"King of the Forest, Titan Giant Ape!"

Glug!

Everyone looked up in horror at the giant gorilla that had suddenly appeared in the sky.

"Children, run!!"

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar!!!"

Roar~!!!

The next moment, a giant bear appeared, but it was still much smaller than the huge gorilla.

In the sky.

Xu Nian'an looked ahead at what the Spirit Hall was chasing.

"Xiao Wu... a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that has taken human form."

Just then, a golden light appeared.

"Wait, something's not right..."

The moment the golden light appeared, a golden dragon pattern slowly condensed and appeared on Xu Nian'an's forehead.

"This appearance, this golden auspicious power, and... what's with this damn sense of destiny? Damn it, could this guy be... the Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?"
