What Does It Mean for the Child of the God of Destruction and the Life Goddess to Be Mistaken for an Evil Soul Master?

Li Changsheng, standing to the side, had initially been somewhat puzzled when he heard the identity of the Shrek Inspection Corps. But in an instant, he understood.

So they were from Shrek. No wonder!

With that thought, he gave a soft laugh, a trace of mockery flashing through his eyes as he finally understood the entire situation.

"So..."

He spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of ridicule as he questioned, "Just because the attribute of my awakened martial soul is destruction, you've decided I'm an evil soul master?"

As his words fell, he slowly spread open his right hand.

Buzz—!

Space trembled faintly.

The next moment, the jet-black Destruction Scepter, covered in profound patterns, suddenly appeared from his palm and hovered quietly in midair.

The instant the scepter emerged, an endless aura of silent annihilation and destruction erupted!

Deep black mist surged and billowed like an abyss.

An utterly terrifying pressure of ruin swept through the entire small courtyard like a tidal wave.

Cold, domineering, and carrying supreme divine might capable of annihilating all things, it instantly made everyone present catch their breath, their hearts trembling in shock.

It was as though they were not facing a martial soul, but a supreme deity who controlled life, death, and destruction!

Zhou Chun's face instantly turned pale. His body retreated instinctively, his expression filled with horror.

The silver-clothed youth's pupils contracted sharply, and for the first time, a grave look appeared on his arrogant face.

The soul power around him instinctively began circulating at full force to resist the terrifying pressure of destruction, further confirming his judgment.

With a martial soul so sinister and domineering, filled with the aura of ruin and death, what else could he be if not an evil soul master?

Perhaps even an exceptionally high-grade evil martial soul!

The God of Destruction and the Life Goddess, the two supreme God Kings, likely would never have imagined even in their dreams that their treasured child, a descendant of the God Kings carrying the purest God King origin, would one day be branded an "evil soul master" by nothing more than an academy disciple in the lower realm.

Jiang Nannan's face turned pale from the terrifying pressure of destruction, and her body trembled slightly as fear rose instinctively from the depths of her heart.

But as she looked at the lean yet upright back of the youth in the courtyard, remembered his kindness in saving her mother, and recalled his gentle, calm demeanor, she ultimately gritted her teeth and stepped forward despite herself, placing herself in front of Li Changsheng.

The girl's voice carried a barely perceptible tremor, yet she still spoke firmly. "Uncle Zhou, and this Shrek senior... I don't think we can decide someone is an evil soul master just based on what their martial soul looks like. That's too unfair."

"His martial soul's aura may be frightening, but he possesses an incredibly powerful healing ability. He even cured my mother, who had been seriously ill for years. He definitely isn't a bad person!"

"Healing ability? Are you kidding me?"

Upon hearing that, the silver-clothed youth was first stunned. Then, as if he had heard the greatest joke in the world, he let out a derisive laugh, the disdain in his eyes growing even stronger.

"And fairness!"

He sneered, his tone cold and arrogant as he demanded, "Evil soul masters bring chaos to the world and poison all living beings. If we let the tiger return to the mountain today, and he grows up to harm innocents and slaughter commoners, who will bear that responsibility?"

"When the Shrek Inspection Corps acts, we would rather kill by mistake than let one slip through!"

He stepped forward and looked down at Jiang Nannan, who stood in front of him. His tone was filled with undisguised contempt and rebuke. "And what are you supposed to be? Just a commoner. What gives you the right to tell me what to do?"

"I represent Shrek Academy. If I say he is an evil soul master, then he must be an evil soul master!"

Those cold, arrogant words slammed into the cramped courtyard, carrying an unquestionable tyranny that instantly made the air stiff and stagnant.

Jiang Nannan's petite body trembled slightly. The towering monument of a holy land in her heart, one that had never once wavered, suddenly cracked open with a massive fissure.

Ever since she was young, she had heard countless legends about Shrek Academy.

It was the sacred land of soul masters that had stood at the peak of the continent for ten thousand years, synonymous with justice, fairness, genius, and protection.

Everyone said that Shrek guarded the world, suppressed evil, punished wickedness, and sheltered the common people. It was the final support and light in the hearts of all low-born soul masters and ordinary citizens.

Countless impoverished youths took pride in being admitted to Shrek.

Countless people believed that Shrek acted openly and honorably, impartially and selflessly, never wronging a single good person and never tolerating a single evildoer.

That was also the ultimate holy land she had longed to reach, the place she had strived toward with all her strength.

Yet this lofty Shrek inner court disciple before her had completely shattered every beautiful illusion she had held of Shrek.

Without asking the reason, distinguishing good from evil, or listening to any explanation, he casually condemned someone as an evil soul master worthy of death based on nothing more than a trace of martial soul aura.

One sentence: rather kill by mistake than let one slip through...

One sentence: if I say he is, then he is. It was domineering, prejudiced, and tyrannical to the extreme!

Where was even a shred of a holy land's dignity?

Where was even a shred of fairness or justice?

At that moment, all of Jiang Nannan's yearning, admiration, and reverence for Shrek plummeted, even becoming shrouded in deep disappointment.

So the supreme holy land praised by the world could be this arbitrary, this arrogant, using its authority and power to recklessly define the good and evil of others and treat human lives like grass!

Zhou Chun stood off to the side, his face full of extreme disappointment as he looked at Jiang Nannan, who stubbornly protected Li Changsheng.

Then he looked at the overbearing Shrek disciple. Caught between the two, he did not dare to utter a word.

On one side was a well-behaved, kind-hearted girl who knew how to repay kindness.

On the other was a member of the Inspection Corps, representing Shrek's authority and holding the power to apprehend people.

He was merely a Soul King. He had no right to speak at all.

Besides, the other party was not entirely wrong.

If Li Changsheng did not become an evil soul master, then everyone would be happy.

But if he did fall into depravity, it would be a catastrophic disaster for the entire continent.

Seeing this, the silver-clothed youth's eyes grew even more contemptuous. He sneered and was about to rebuke them again.

But at that moment, a voice full of mockery suddenly rang out.

"What a Shrek Academy!"

"What a 'if I say he is an evil soul master, then he is an evil soul master'!"

"Relying on power to act tyrannically, making arbitrary judgments, acting unilaterally... Have Shrek's rules become this overbearing now?"

"With the way you use your position to bully others and treat innocents' lives like grass, does Mu En, the one presiding over Shrek, know about it?"

Every word rang out powerfully, each sentence striking straight at the heart!

It directly tore apart Shrek's hypocrisy and tyranny before everyone, even bluntly naming Shrek's highest authority: Mu En, the Dragon God Douluo whose cultivation had reached rank ninety-nine!

Boom!

The instant those words fell, everyone in the courtyard's expressions changed drastically!

The arrogance and contempt on the silver-clothed youth's face froze at once. His pupils shrank violently, his face filled with disbelief!

Although he had no idea who the Mu En mentioned by the other party was, this was still the first time he had encountered someone who dared to question Shrek Academy so openly.

Jiang Nannan also abruptly raised her head, her face filled with astonishment and her heart shaken to its core.

The next second, faint ripples spread through space, and a streak of dim black light appeared out of thin air.

No one saw how he had arrived, nor did anyone catch even the slightest trace of movement.

It was as if this person had always stood between heaven and earth, only just revealing himself from the void!
