Target: Death God Envoy? Ning Tian Was Afraid
Ning Tian was scared; this time, he was truly scared.
Originally, I thought that participating in the Soul Master Competition as a substitute member of the Shrek Academy was just a formality, and that I could take the opportunity to meet Huo Yuhao, whom I had been curious about for a long time, and see with my own eyes what this Child of Destiny could bring about change to the entire Douluo Continent was like.
But now, seeing Huo Yuhao in his Diary that Shrek Academy's participating members might be wiped out by a Soul King, Ning Tian immediately chickened out.
As the Young Sect Master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School, she had already become Soul Elder at a young age, and was even about to become a level 40 Soul Ancestor. She was unwilling to die like this, especially for the sake of Shrek's ideals and glory!
Just as Ning Tian was pondering what he should do, Xuan Zi in front of him was still eloquently recounting Shrek and his own glorious past.
"Every Inner Court disciple is an inspector, and they must complete thirty inspection tasks to graduate. The process of completing these tasks is not only a test of the Inner Court disciples' strength, but also a moral lesson for them. Shrek Academy aims to cultivate not just strong individuals, but also true talents who are willing to work to maintain peace and stability on the continent."
"I must tell you that we are both inspectors and enforcers. Everything that our Shrek Supervision Group handles is extremely difficult and dangerous. We have even faced Titled Douluo before. Our lives are always at risk. Therefore, you must carefully consider whether you are willing to become a member of the Inspection Corps."
At this point, Xuan Zi paused, then spoke with unusual confidence and in an unquestionable tone.
"Let me state upfront that the Inspection Corps will not receive any compensation!"
As if worried that Xuan Zi's words would dampen the enthusiasm of these younger students, Dai Yueheng stood up at the right time to echo Xuan Zi's words, saying that he had fought for Shrek's ideals over the years, and that his mind and body had been sublimated. He was very happy when he rescued one innocent person after another.
Encouraged by these official members, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, He Caitou, Dai Huabin, and Zhu Lu became extremely excited, practically wishing they could find an Evil Soul Master to kill right now.
However, as one senior student after another from the Inner Court stood up to recount their achievements, Bei Bei kept her head down, not wanting to reveal her hatred for Ma Xiaotao.
Bei Bei truly couldn't understand how Ma Xiaotao had the audacity to claim how many Evil Soul Master she had killed and how many people she had saved.
Ma Xiaotao was the one who killed two innocent students from the Foreign Languages Department, so why is she still standing here unharmed?
Bei Bei knew that in order to prevent Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire from erupting again, ever since Tang Ya was pushed out as a scapegoat, Yan Shaozhe had found a Soul Sage- level Ice Attribute Soul Master to suppress her Evil Fire. What Bei Bei couldn't understand the most was that Yan Shaozhe used some method to make the other party willingly do it even though he knew that suppressing the Evil Fire would damage his source!
However, when Bei Bei sees Ma Xiaotao lively and energetic, he always thinks of his girlfriend who has been forced to become Evil Soul Master, and he wishes he could immediately attack Ma Xiaotao!
However, Bei Bei was also well aware that if he really did that, once the news got out, Shrek would never be able to shake off the reputation of secretly training Evil Soul Master!
Having grown up in Shrek Academy and considering it her true home, Bei Bei certainly couldn't stand by and watch this happen!
Seeing that everyone's emotions had been stirred up, Xuan Zi didn't waste any more time and asked directly.
"Alright, now you need to give me an answer. Join or leave."
Feeling the gaze of Xuan Zi and the group of senior students, plus his older brother, Dai Huabin, whose face was slightly flushed, shouted without hesitation.
"I'm in!"
As a commoner Soul Master, Jiang Nannan naturally hated those Evil Soul Master who committed numerous atrocities, and almost simultaneously with Zhu Lu, she loudly declared that she wanted to join them.
Watching them all express their desire to Shrek Supervision Group, Ning Tian broke out in a cold sweat on her smooth, fair forehead. She felt that if she refused, the consequences would definitely not be as simple as Xuan Zi had just said, without any cost.
Thinking of the Invincible Barrier that his family had specially sent him and the Storage Soul Tool, Ning Tian hesitated for a while before agreeing to join as well.
Xuan Zi gave Ning Tian a deep look, somewhat displeased by her hesitation, but since she had agreed to join, he decided to pretend the matter had never happened.
Xuan Zi stopped wasting time and announced the Shrek Supervision Group's target this time. To Ning Tian's horror, the target was indeed the ' Death God Envoy ' that Huo Yuhao had mentioned in his Diary!
Looking around, he saw that the people around him were looking down on Evil Soul Master and disdainful of a mere Soul King who dared to call himself Death God Envoy. They even said that with their help, the so-called Death God Envoy would soon be going to meet death.
Ning Tian felt a chill run down his spine and his limbs felt weak.
Even Huo Yuhao himself said that without his help, the Shrek Supervision Group would likely be wiped out, yet these people still have this attitude. How could Ning Tian not worry?
After Xuan Zi finished explaining everything, Ning Tian slowly raised his hand. Once everyone had quieted down, Ning Tian forced a smile and said...
"Um, Xuan Zi, I think we still can't be careless when facing Evil Soul Master. Even if the opponent is just a Soul King, you know that Evil Soul Master all have all kinds of insidious and vicious methods. So, if possible, could you equip everyone with some Soul Tool for self-defense?"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Zi's face instantly darkened, and he looked at Ning Tian coldly.
"With me here, do we need to worry about anything going wrong when dealing with a mere Soul King? The academy doesn't have any Soul Tool for self-defense, so forget about that idea!"
Xuan Zi was very unhappy. Shrek Academy had a tradition of only accepting students and not letting them leave. Did they really want the academy to equip its students with defensive Soul Tool? What a pipe dream!
Ning Tian knew from the beginning that Xuan Zi would definitely reject his proposal. After all, Shrek Academy was notoriously stingy. More importantly, these Shrek students not only didn't feel ashamed, but even thought that being stingy was something to be proud of.
Asking them to produce their self-defense Soul Tool for the students is simply wishful thinking!
Feeling the strange looks around him, Ning Tian took a deep breath, trying his best to calm himself down, and said in a deep voice.
"So, I actually have some Invincible Barrier for self-defense. If anyone needs them, you can come to me to get them."
Upon hearing this, everyone present exchanged bewildered glances, unsure whether to say that Ning Tian was too cautious or that the Young Sect Master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was too timid.
Gongyang Mo, who was also a support-type Soul Master, hesitated for a moment before stepping towards Ning Tian to borrow an Invincible Barrier for self-defense.
However, he had only taken two steps when Ma Xiaotao grabbed him. Ma Xiaotao glanced at Ning Tian with disdain, then looked at Gongyang Mo and said.
"You don't need that kind of thing. I will protect you! We Shrek Soul Master don't need any external force to defeat any opponent."
Regarding the Death God Envoy, the previous points were just a setup to demonstrate just how hopeless the Shrek Devils were. It wasn't about saving them, so there was no need for such a big reaction. I certainly wouldn't make such a basic mistake.
Like I said before, don't be in such a hurry, trust me.
