Flandre Calls for Reinforcements!

Before long, Qin Feng and the others reached the outskirts. With Xiong Er, a six-hundred-thousand-year ferocious beast, accompanying them, not a single Soul Beast dared approach along the way.

However, Qin Feng stopped once they reached the outskirts. With a thought, three silver-white masks appeared in his hand.

"Here, put these on."

He handed the three Human-Skin Masks in his hand to Brother Qiang and the others.

"What are these? Can you eat them?"

Xiong Er stared at the palm-sized mask in his hand, drool spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"Eat what? These are masks. Put one on, then imagine what you want to look like."

Qin Feng replied irritably.

"Roar!"

Xiong Er nodded and pressed the mask in his hand onto his face.

"Who should I turn into?"

Xiong Er scratched his head, his gaze unconsciously drifting toward Bald Qiang.

"Got it!"

With that, he imagined Bald Qiang's appearance in his mind.

Xiong Er's face began to shift, and in the end, he actually transformed into Bald Qiang.

"Ahem, I'm Bald Qiang!"

After doing all that, Xiong Er grinned and vigorously rubbed his own shiny bald head with one hand.

"?"

Seeing this, Bald Qiang's hand holding the mask trembled slightly.

He looked at Xiong Er, who was identical to himself, and a trace of shock flashed through his eyes. No wonder His Highness had been able to turn into Tang San last time. So he had relied on this treasure.

"The real and fake Bald Qiang?"

Qin Feng was speechless at the sight. Of all people to imitate, Xiong Er had chosen Brother Qiang.

He shook his head and paid it no mind, opening the System Mall to buy another Human-Skin Mask.

He had only bought three last time, originally intending them for himself, Brother Qiang, and Dajin. But he had not expected to summon Xiong Er afterward, so he had to buy another one.

After buying it, he did not leave the System Mall. Instead, he searched for a photo of the Shrek Seven Monsters.

After all, once his face appeared outside, the major top forces would certainly be on guard. The outside world was different from the Xingdou Great Forest; Extreme Douluo did exist there. It was better to be careful.

He bought the photo of the Shrek Seven Monsters so Xiong Er could transform into one of them.

After purchasing the photo, Qin Feng exited the System Mall.

With another thought, a Human-Skin Mask and a photograph appeared in his hands.

He first pressed the Human-Skin Mask onto his face, then imagined Tang San's appearance.

At once, his face shifted and ultimately became Tang San's.

"Xiong Er, stop playing around. Turn into one of the people in the photo."

As he spoke, Qin Feng handed the photograph to Xiong Er.

"Oh."

Hearing that, disappointment flashed through Xiong Er's eyes. He had not had enough fun with that big bald head yet.

Without thinking much about it, he looked at the seven people in the photograph.

"I'll pick this little fatty."

After choosing for a while, Xiong Er fixed his gaze on a red-haired little fatty.

Once he had decided, Xiong Er imagined Ma Hongjun's appearance in his mind.

His face then shifted and transformed into Ma Hongjun's.

Bald Qiang and Dajin transformed into Oscar and Dai Mubai respectively.

"Perfect!"

Qin Feng looked at Brother Qiang and the others' faces and nodded in satisfaction.

Though the Shrek Seven Monsters existed in name only, the Shrek Four Monsters had returned to the world today.

"Tang San, I hope you won't get angry when you see yourself turned into a rat crossing the street."

As he spoke, a playful smile appeared on Qin Feng's face.

"Let's go."

With that, Qin Feng and the others stepped out of the Xingdou Great Forest.

The moment Qin Feng stepped out of the Xingdou Great Forest, he felt countless gazes converging on him.

"Scouts from the major powers?"

Feeling the countless scrutinizing gazes around him, Qin Feng smiled faintly.

Those top powers truly valued their lives.

He had thought the major powers would at most send a few scouts to keep watch, but he had not expected there to be one every few dozen meters, covering nearly every entrance and exit of the Xingdou Great Forest.

He shook his head and ignored them, instead going to a nearby trading company to rent a carriage.

"To Martial Soul City!"

Qin Feng spoke calmly. Since he wanted to gain Shock Value, Martial Soul City was undoubtedly the best choice.

"Sure thing!"

The coachman nodded excitedly, then drove the carriage toward Martial Soul City.

Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy...

"What! You're saying... Zhao Wuji... is dead?"

Upon learning the news, Flandre looked as if he had been struck by lightning, his face filled with disbelief.

Zhao Wuji was a level seventy-six Soul Sage! He had merely gone to the outskirts of the Xingdou Great Forest to help Oscar obtain a Soul Ring. How could he have died?

"Yes, Headmaster. Teacher Zhao died buying us time. Our arms were severed as well, and Xiao Wu and the other two were captured."

Ma Hongjun truthfully recounted what had happened in the Xingdou Great Forest.

"Pfft!"

After hearing Ma Hongjun's explanation, Flandre was overcome with rage and anxiety, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

He clutched his heart, his eyes filled with loss and unwillingness.

Just two days ago, he had been chatting with the old man next door, boasting that he had recruited several students with Innate Full Soul Power.

But in the blink of an eye... everything was ruined!

Dai Mubai had left on his own, Tang San was nowhere to be found, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing had been captured, while Ma Hongjun and Oscar had each lost an arm.

Shrek Academy might still sound like an academy, but in truth, it existed in name only!

"Could it be... is there truly no hope left?" Flandre collapsed to the ground, his face ashen.

"Right, there's still the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School."

Suddenly, as if he had grasped a lifeline, Flandre sprang to his feet, a glimmer of hope flashing through his eyes.

Ning Rongrong was the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School. If she had been captured, Ning Fengzhi certainly would not stand by and do nothing.

As long as the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School could rescue Rongrong and the others, Shrek Academy could still be saved.

"You two stay at the academy and recover. I'm going to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School."

After instructing Ma Hongjun and Oscar, a pair of black wings suddenly appeared behind Flandre. He shot into the sky and vanished beyond the horizon.

Elsewhere, after several days of travel, Qin Feng and the others arrived outside Martial Soul City.

"So this is where humans live?"

Dajin looked at the towering city before him, shock flashing through his eyes.

No wonder some Soul Beasts were willing to give up a hundred thousand years of cultivation to transform into humans.

"Let's go in."

Qin Feng, standing nearby, was not surprised at all. After all, he had lived in Douluo for two and a half years. Though he had never seen any grand sights, a mere city was not enough to astonish him.

After entering the city, an overwhelming tide of noise filled their ears.

"I want candied hawthorn skewers!"

At that moment, Xiong Er's excited voice rang out beside Qin Feng.

Hearing Xiong Er's words, Qin Feng covered his face. Sure enough, he had known this would happen.

"Eat."

However, Qin Feng did not refuse. It was not as if he lacked money.

The System Mall could buy not only treasures such as Martial Souls and Soul Rings, but currency as well. One point of Shock Value could be exchanged for one hundred Gold Soul Coins, which was fairly worthwhile.
