Was Tang Ya an Evil Soul Master? Xu Sanshi Made His Move

"San Shi, do you know why Xiao Ya has changed so much?" Bei Bei abruptly raised his head, hope returning to his eyes.

"I don't know yet. But I'll understand once I test her." A gleam of excitement flashed in Xu Sanshi's eyes. He knew he must have discovered a great secret. Perhaps that secret could also bring him a tremendous opportunity.

"Are you sure Qian Ran's Martial Soul is the Six-Winged Angel? Why does something feel wrong?" Xu Sanshi asked Bei Bei beside him. The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was truly a legend in the Martial Soul World. But the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul did not fit his theory at all.

How could someone with the Six-Winged Angel possibly be an Evil Soul Master? And how could he possibly control Tang Ya?

"Although he stole Xiao Ya away, he really is very strong. And his Martial Soul is undoubtedly the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul," Bei Bei said earnestly. Last time, Qian Ran had beaten him so thoroughly that he had no fight left in him.

Qian Ran was clearly only a Soul Grandmaster, yet his combat strength was even more terrifying than a Soul Ancestor's.

When he fought Qian Ran, he had been suppressed the entire time. He had never told anyone about that, because it was too humiliating.

He was so despondent not only because Qian Ran had stolen his beloved Tang Ya, but also because he had been defeated by a new student.

He was Thunderbolt Bei Bei, after all. Even losing to Xu Sanshi would have been easier to stomach. But a new student...

Qian Ran had practically nailed him to the pillar of shame. As Qian Ran's fame at Shrek Academy grew, he would become Qian Ran's stepping stone and a laughingstock in many people's eyes.

"That's strange, then."

"Still, a test should tell us why Tang Ya has changed so much. Maybe Tang Ya is even stronger than the two of us now."

Xu Sanshi's gaze sharpened. Suddenly, he charged straight toward Tang Ya, moving like lightning.

With his Martial Soul released, Xu Sanshi was very fast.

Almost instantly, Xu Sanshi reached Tang Ya's side.

"Ah!"

Jiang Nannan froze for a moment. Seeing Xu Sanshi, she could not help crying out in surprise.

But Xu Sanshi's attention remained fixed on Tang Ya. The closer he got, the more he felt the terrifying presence emanating from her!

When had Tang Ya become so unfathomable?

Wasn't Tang Ya's Martial Soul just Blue Silver Grass?

At that moment, Tang Ya also sensed Xu Sanshi's attack and hastily mobilized all her Soul Power.

She raised both hands and lightly struck Xu Sanshi's chest. The next moment, she abruptly lifted her head, and the dark blue deep within her eyes suddenly lit up. Dark blue light flickered as powerful devouring and corrosive forces ravaged Xu Sanshi's vitality.

Xu Sanshi's face instantly turned considerably paler.

"What an evil power!"

"An Evil Soul Master!"

Xu Sanshi's expression changed drastically. A pitch-black shield appeared before him, and a black defensive barrier enveloped his entire body. Even so, caught off guard, Xu Sanshi was still injured.

The Soul Power Tang Ya left on Xu Sanshi's chest was condensed and powerful, and her entire body carried an overwhelmingly potent corrosive force. Even with Xu Sanshi's powerful defensive attribute, he faintly felt a sense of fear. If Tang Ya's cultivation were as high as Xu Sanshi's, she could probably defeat him easily.

"An Evil Soul Master!"

"Tang Ya, you've actually become an Evil Soul Master!"

"No wonder you've become so much stronger!"

Xu Sanshi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared at Tang Ya in horror.

He understood that Tang Ya was now stronger than both him and Bei Bei.

At that moment, Jiang Nannan and Bei Bei were also dumbstruck. The evil presence Tang Ya had given off when she released her Martial Soul was far too intense.

Moreover, Tang Ya had easily injured Xu Sanshi. Such offensive power was simply too formidable.

The combat strength of Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul could never have broken through the defenses of Xu Sanshi's Black Tortoise. An Evil Soul Master was another matter. If Tang Ya had become an Evil Soul Master, all her changes over the past few days could be explained.

It was because Tang Ya had become an Evil Soul Master that her temperament had changed so drastically, and that was why she was so cold toward him, wasn't it?

As though clutching at a life-saving straw, Bei Bei's eyes filled with fervor, and his confidence returned.

His eyes filled with pity as he looked at Tang Ya, and he was utterly furious inside. Qian Ran must have been the one who had turned Tang Ya into this!

Qian Ran! He deserved to die!

He had actually turned Tang Ya into an Evil Soul Master!

Although he did not know how Qian Ran had done it, all of this was undoubtedly Qian Ran's doing. Xiao Ya had only suddenly become like this after Qian Ran appeared. His last trip to the Star Dou Great Forest had been to help Xiao Ya obtain her third Soul Ring, and there had been nothing wrong with her Martial Soul then.

But now, the terrifying power contained within that dark blue energy made even his heart tremble.

"An Evil Soul Master? I'm not an Evil Soul Master."

Tang Ya's lovely face changed slightly. Her greatest worry was that others would mistake her for an Evil Soul Master.

Everyone on the continent understood Evil Soul Masters in the same way.

Whenever an Evil Soul Master appeared, anyone had the right to put them to death.

Xu Sanshi had accused her of being an Evil Soul Master without distinguishing right from wrong, which displeased her greatly.

Qian Ran had told her long ago that being able to use an Evil Soul Master's power did not necessarily make someone an Evil Soul Master. She could control her own Martial Soul and would not be affected by the evil thoughts of the Dark Blue Silver Grass at all. In fact, under the protection of Qian Ran's sacred power of light, Tang Ya was even more mentally healthy than an ordinary person.

Judging whether someone was an Evil Soul Master solely by their Martial Soul was far too one-sided.

Possessing an Evil Martial Soul and becoming an Evil Soul Master were different concepts.

"Xiao Ya, what exactly is going on?" Jiang Nannan looked worried. The presence Tang Ya had unleashed just now had startled her too. Had Tang Ya really changed?

"What else could it be? Qian Ran must have something to do with it. I knew it. Xiao Ya, the power of an Evil Soul Master has only affected your mind. That's why you've been so cold to me. And because Qian Ran turned you into an Evil Soul Master, your presence feels an affinity for him," Bei Bei said, immensely delighted.

As long as Tang Ya's Martial Soul returned to normal, wouldn't he be able to win Xiao Ya's heart again?

Qian Ran, you truly deserved to die!

Of all the things you should never have done, you should never have turned Xiao Ya into an Evil Soul Master! You could come after me, but you couldn't bully Xiao Ya. Bei Bei spoke inwardly, his hatred for Qian Ran growing even deeper. At Shrek Academy, Bei Bei had always been gentle and refined as jade. He had never hated anyone so much before.

"I told you, I'm not." Tang Ya found that even a hundred mouths could not clear her name. Even her close friend did not believe her at all. Evil Soul Masters had a notorious reputation on the continent, and there had been many cases of outstanding Soul Masters becoming Evil Soul Masters because of various accidents.

So even Jiang Nannan worried that Tang Ya might have suffered some mishap.

"Xiao Ya, come with me. I'll take you to see the teachers. They can help turn you back to the way you were." Looking at Tang Ya now, Bei Bei felt a pang of heartache. How he wished she would return to her former self. Back then, although Tang Ya had been weak, she had always been gentle as water.

His Grand Ancestor was the Dragon God Douluo, whose Martial Soul was the Radiant Sacred Dragon. If his Grand Ancestor intervened, he would surely be able to save Xiao Ya.

"Heh. Back to the way I was?" A cold smile appeared on Tang Ya's stunningly beautiful face. The presence of the Dark Blue Silver Grass poured relentlessly from her, and dark energy swirled around her entire body. Her presence became incomparably powerful.

Even dressed in Shrek Academy's school uniform, her exquisite figure, paired with that icy, evil presence that warned strangers away, was utterly breathtaking.

Tang Ya stood there proudly, slender and graceful, enough to draw and hold everyone's gaze.

She was so beautiful!

Tang Ya was now far more beautiful than before!

Tang Ya naturally had the gentle, waterlike bearing of a woman from the lands south of the river, but after releasing her dark presence, she gained much more of an icy bearing, like a witch.

Even with evil energy raging around her, Tang Ya's beauty still made everyone swallow.

Before, Jiang Nannan had been the undisputed greatest beauty of the Outer Court. But now, Tang Ya's beauty was no less than Jiang Nannan's, and after fully releasing her Martial Soul, she even seemed to surpass her.
