Just After Ma Xiaotao Was Invited Inside, the Holy Spirit Cult Launched a Surprise Attack on Shrek

"Feng, I'll get the door!"

Although having the intimate atmosphere ruined left Wang Qiu'er a little annoyed.

The young girl still obediently went over to open the door.

Creak!

Outside, Ma Xiaotao's face was bright red.

She held a bowl of sliced fruit, her gaze a little evasive.

She seemed very shy.

But after seeing that Wang Qiu'er was the one who opened the door.

A hint of panic appeared in the little phoenix's eyes.

Actually, Ma Xiaotao did not know what was wrong with her either.

She clearly knew he had a girlfriend.

Yet she still wanted to get close.

The reason was simple, too.

It was because being with this man put her at ease.

He seemed to have a way to suppress the Evil Fire inside Ma Xiaotao's body.

That was something even Huo Yuhao had been unable to do back then!

So...

"It smells so good. Can I have a bite?"

Just as Ma Xiaotao was at a loss for how to begin.

Wang Qiu'er took an interest in the fruit in the bowl.

"Qiu'er, hurry and invite Xiaotao inside!"

"Oh!"

After picking up a cherry and popping it into her mouth.

Wang Qiu'er politely led her senior inside.

The lighting in here was a little dim.

That was because Luo Feng had wanted to do something unmentionable earlier.

Only to be interrupted by this unexpected visitor.

Whoosh!

Perhaps because she was unaccustomed to the dim surroundings.

The phoenix wings behind Ma Xiaotao burst into flame, instantly illuminating the dark space.

But when this eldest senior sister saw the mattress that had already been laid out.

She seemed to understand something.

Her little face instantly turned red again!

"D-did I come at a bad time?"

"Am I... interrupting you two...?"

All right, then!

This was way too awkward!

Just as Luo Feng was about to explain something.

A piercing alarm suddenly sounded outside!

Wooo! Wooo! Wooo!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Terrifying explosions followed.

It all happened so suddenly.

Even Ma Xiaotao was caught somewhat off guard.

After all, Shrek was the largest sect on the entire Douluo Continent.

Who had that much nerve?

"Could it be Di Tian?"

Hearing the commotion, Luo Feng shuddered.

Then he reflexively looked at Wang Qiu'er beside him!

But Di Tian would never launch a sneak attack under cover of night. He was the Beast God, after all.

Just as the three of them were feeling bewildered.

The academy's broadcast finally offered an explanation.

"The academy is under attack by a large group of unidentified Evil Soul Masters. Everyone, stay safe!"

"Students capable of fighting, please converge on the Sea God Pavilion immediately and reestablish a defensive perimeter!"

Evil Soul Masters?

Could it be...?

Hearing the broadcast, Luo Feng suddenly understood.

During the earlier competition, a Soul Tool from the Sun Moon Empire had activated Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire.

And so she had become a target for these Evil Soul Masters.

According to the original timeline.

The fundamental reason Shrek was attacked this time.

Was that the enemy wanted to seize Ma Xiaotao.

And he had happened to arrive at precisely this moment!

"Damn it!"

"I knew something felt strange from the start!"

Now everything lined up.

From seeing Ma Xiaotao at Shrek's entrance earlier to this girl suddenly losing control.

There was a reasonable explanation for all of it.

"Those damned Evil Soul Masters! I'll fight them to the death!"

As the inner court's eldest senior sister.

Ma Xiaotao had always considered herself a guardian.

Faced with an attack like this, she could never stand idly by.

But before Ma Xiaotao could leave.

Luo Feng caught her wrist from behind.

"Luo Feng, what are you doing? Let go!"

For some reason, when this man held her.

Although Ma Xiaotao sounded fierce.

Her movements were feeble.

She had no desire whatsoever to forcibly break free.

"Xiaotao, you're their target. They need your Evil Fire Phoenix!"

"So you absolutely can't go out and walk right into their net!"

As he spoke, Luo Feng turned to Wang Qiu'er beside him.

"Qiu'er, stay in the room and help me protect your senior. I'll go take a look!"

"Okay, Feng. Be careful!"

"I can come out to support you at any time!"

Although Wang Qiu'er was also burning with righteous indignation now.

She still listened to Luo Feng.

She immediately took out the Golden Dragon Spear and blocked Ma Xiaotao's path.

And just after Luo Feng finished making these arrangements.

Several sounds of rushing air suddenly came from above their dormitory.

"It should be here. Someone saw that girl come here. Search the place!"

These were several Soul Saint-level Evil Soul Masters.

They had probably scouted the place beforehand, and they also had a mole inside the academy.

They had been watching Ma Xiaotao from the very beginning!

"Damn it!"

"They came this fast?"

"Then I'll use your lives to test my Soul Skills!"

Originally, Luo Feng had planned to study them slowly.

But circumstances changed faster than his plans.

His first Soul Skill was a gift from the Time Dragon King.

Aside from his innate skill, Time Stop.

There was also [Years of Hardship].

It could release a defense-ignoring temporal aura in every direction, centered on himself.

Reducing the enemy's mobility and the speed of their Soul Skill effects by 80%...

His second Soul Skill came from the Mountain Dragon King, and its effect allowed him to construct a suit of [Immovable Mountain Armor] around himself.

As long as both feet stood on land, his Soul Power would flow continuously.

He could become immune to all attacks whose level did not exceed his own by more than three major realms.

At the same time, he could reflect 40% of the enemy's impact force!

But the one that actually possessed an offensive ability.

Was his third Soul Skill, [Dragon Emperor Sky-Rending Claw].

It could transform the user's entire right arm and hand into a golden dragon claw.

Possessing the ultimate ability to rend space.

It could ignore 50% of the enemy's protective Soul Power and defenses, and exert imperial pressure on all Beast Martial Souls.

Its attack power would also double!

"I'll leave the others for now! This is the one!"

"Behold my third Soul Skill, [Dragon Emperor Sky-Rending Claw]!"

In the space of a single thought.

Luo Feng formulated his attack plan.

He would use the first move of his third Soul Skill to tear through the enemy's defenses.

Then use his second Soul Skill to put himself in an invincible position.

As for the second move of his third Soul Skill, and the two moves of his newly acquired fourth Soul Skill.

He would leave studying those for later.

He could adapt to the situation once the fight began.

The key was to deal with these two Evil Soul Masters overhead first!

Seeing someone charge out of the room.

The two enemies circling in the air swiftly locked onto their target as well.

Perhaps because it was pitch-black.

And because the two of them were suspended in midair.

They did not pay much attention to the colors of Luo Feng's Soul Rings.

By the time they swooped down, it was already too late!

"Silence this brat first, then capture the target!"

"Wait, why does this brat have two red Soul Rings?"

"Something's wrong! Watch out!"

Although the two Soul Saints finally noticed something amiss at the last moment.

The kinetic and potential energy of their downward dive had already sealed their inability to turn back.

They could only meet Luo Feng's golden dragon claw head-on!

Crack!

There was no suspense!

Faced with Luo Feng's third Soul Skill.

The Evil Soul Master farthest to the left did not even have time to dodge before his entire body slammed into it.

Then came a wet squelch.

A gaping hole opened in his chest.

That terrifying golden dragon claw had pierced straight through him with ease!

"Ah, you... you!"

The other Evil Soul Master was slightly slower.

Seeing his companion die so horribly.

He instinctively retreated.

But before he could turn his body around.

A streak of golden light flashed before his eyes.

Squelch!

That was Wang Qiu'er's Golden Dragon Spear.

Perhaps she had seen that her boyfriend was in danger fighting two opponents at once and had struck in desperation!

Though it lacked the imposing might of the Luo Feng Dragon Claw, its piercing power was no weaker.

A flash of golden light punched another hole through this fellow's chest.

The attack was fast, precise, and vicious-not at all like the work of a young girl just venturing out into the world!

And so, in just a few blinks of an eye.

The two Soul Saint-level Evil Soul Masters were finished off.

But the danger had not passed.

One could even say it had only just begun.

The deaths of two experts in an instant drew the attention of an even stronger being!

"Found you!"

"Little girl, you're mine!"

It was a woman with nine Soul Rings beneath her feet, whose Martial Soul was a hideous, evil Black Phoenix!

From right there in midair, she locked onto the dormitory where Luo Feng and the others were!

This was Feng Ling, the vice leader of the Holy Spirit Cult!

A woman evil to her very bones...
