The next day, Xu Zhengyang was not affected by Jing Hongchen's words, nor did he consider the Holy Spirit Cult. He still came to the Sun Moon Team.
This time, the team has two more members: Ye Wuqing, the deputy team leader, and Ye Guyi, a new member.
At this point, the Sun Moon Team had a total of ten members, each with remarkable potential, especially the newly joined Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen. Both were girls and young, but their Soul Power Level were comparable to the others. Unfortunately, both of them were Soul Master, not Soul Engineer.
Ma Rulong, Xiao Hongchen, and Meng Hongchen had fought against Ye Wuqing before and were well aware of Ye Wuqing ability and strength in using Martial Soul. Even though Ye Wuqing was only Soul King at the moment, they still welcomed his arrival.
Even on their very first training session, Ye Wuqing offered a great deal of advice, mainly regarding the application of Martial Soul. This included conducting a pure Martial Soul battle once a week, and he also explained some techniques for using Martial Soul.
For team members who had never fully experienced the use of Martial Soul, they all found it very practical. Even Xu Zhengyang felt that Ye Wuqing's research on Martial Soul was very in-depth.
Furthermore, thanks to Xu Zhengyang's communication, the Dean of the Martial Soul Department is already working on the lesson plan, and classes will begin next week. Everyone will have a Martial Soul education class, and this class will last for a year. The effectiveness will be evaluated after a year.
In short, the team seemed to have gained more vitality after the introduction of Ye Wuqing and Ye Guyi, especially Ye Guyi, who actually got along very well with Xu Tianzhen and Meng Hongchen.
Ye Guyi is aloof and cold, with an inherent sense of distance. She prefers to be alone, and is extremely pure, resilient, persistent, and has very firm beliefs.
Although Xu Tianzhen has a somewhat willful personality, Tianzhen and carefree, and she greatly admires the cultivation of Martial Soul, especially the Angel Martial Soul.
Meng Hongchen is proud and confident, loyal and protective of her own, arrogant and sharp-tongued, and meticulous, calm and rational, making her more mature than the other two.
The three girls got along remarkably well together, their laughter and chatter occasionally giving Xu Zhengyang and the others a headache.
After training ended, just as Xu Zhengyang was about to return to his dormitory, Ye Guyi stopped him, and judging from her expression, she looked unusually serious.
Xu Zhengyang looked puzzled. " Ye Guyi, what brings you here?"
At this moment, Ye Guyi no longer possessed the harmony she had shown during training; her eyes held a hint of indignation, even a hint of hatred.
" Xu Zhengyang, given your understanding of Martial Soul cultivation, why did you bring Zhengtian Academy into the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy? What exactly are you plotting?"
Xu Zhengyang looked puzzled. " Ye Guyi, do you have some misunderstanding about me? My suggestion that Zhengtian Academy join the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy was purely for the development of the academy. Aren't the two sides having a good discussion now? Isn't Zhengtian Academy also very..."
Are you satisfied?
Ye Guyi's face darkened with anger. "I'm not talking about the academy's problems, but your personal intentions. Don't think you can fool others. I can clearly sense the evil aura emanating from you. This aura is extremely faint. If it weren't for my special Martial Soul, and if you hadn't been so exhausted from training just now, I wouldn't have been able to sense it either."
Xu Zhengyang's face darkened. "What do you mean by that?"
Ye Guyi's lips curled into a sneer, "My Martial Soul is the Holy Angel, possessing ultimate light and holy attributes. It has an innate ability to sense evil, and no evil spirit can hide before me."
"I can clearly sense something is wrong with your Martial Soul. This isn't what a normal Martial Soul should look like. It has a bloody aura, even an evil aura, and my Martial Soul, the Holy Angel, is the nemesis of this kind of aura."
Xu Zhengyang seemed to be deep in thought, not expecting Ye Guyi to be so perceptive, able to sense that something was wrong with his Martial Soul.
However, Xu Zhengyang did not hesitate and handed the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear directly to Ye Guyi.
"If you have any doubts, you can observe for yourself. I am not Evil Soul Master, and I have a clear conscience about what I have done."
Although Ye Guyi looked puzzled, she still accepted Xu Zhengyang's Martial Soul Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear. The moment they made contact, the powerful force of the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear almost crushed her hand.
After so many years of cultivation and nurturing, especially after absorbing several top-tier Soul Ring, Xu Zhengyang's Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear...
It weighs over 2,000 jin (approximately 1,000 kg), making it an outstanding heavy weapon.
However, due to the previous battle with Ma Xiaotao, the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear now appears unusually mottled, with numerous gaps on its surface. Even with Xu Zhengyang's Soul Power to nourish it, it has not yet fully recovered.
Of course, this is related to Xu Zhengyang's cultivation method. No matter the situation, Xu Zhengyang always holds or carries the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear and never puts it back into his body, which is why he recovers so slowly.
Ye Guyi weighed the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear his hand, carefully sensing its condition. His expression gradually became serious, even showing a hint of surprise.
"Something's not right. Why is the bloody aura on this spear so similar to your own, without any chaos or violence? If you use blood to nourish your Martial Soul, or if your Martial Soul absorbs different kinds of blood, the blood of different people will have certain differences and will definitely be extremely chaotic."
Xu Zhengyang shook his head. "This is a cultivation method I came up with myself. The bloody aura on the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear comes from my own essence and blood. I use my own essence and blood and Soul Power to nourish the spear."
Ye Guyi then suddenly realized, "No wonder I sensed a similar aura of blood to your body, but that shouldn't be the case. There's never been a case of using essence blood to nourish Tool Martial Soul in the Douluo Continent, not even Evil Soul Master would use that method. How did you do it?"
Xu Zhengyang seemed a little helpless. "I've already said, this is a unique method that I developed myself; it doesn't exist in either Douluo Continent or Sun Moon Continent."
Xu Zhengyang's method of nurturing the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear was based on the historical research of Soul Engineer on their Life-Bound Soul Tool, plus an external device.
The forging of Martial Soul was something he researched himself. Currently, there are no Life-Bound Soul Tool or Martial Soul forging techniques in the Douluo Continent, so it's normal that Ye Guyi doesn't know about it.
Upon hearing this, Ye Guyi merely responded with an "oh," instead scrutinizing the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear even more closely. Her eyes gradually grew more serious, more shocked, and even more incredulous.
Just then, Ye Guyi suddenly looked at Xu Zhengyang: "You still say you're not Evil Soul Master? The dark aura on this spear even made my Martial Soul feel extremely threatened. I only feel this way when facing Evil Soul Master."
Xu Zhengyang also found it strange. The aura on his Martial Soul was extremely weak, even caught in a strange balance. Even Jing Hongchen hadn't noticed it, but now a little girl had discovered it.
"This isn't an aura of evil, but a curse. Several years ago, I came across a very powerful weapon, but it was crafted by Evil Soul Master, and every wielder in the series ultimately died because of the curse."
"When I first came into contact with this weapon, I sensed its extraordinary nature, especially its exceptional material. Ultimately, I felt something was very wrong with it, which is why I sought a way to destroy it."
"Unfortunately, when this weapon was destroyed, the phantom of this Evil Soul Master appeared, and the Evil Soul Master's energy actually entered my Martial Soul, which caused my Martial Soul to seem to be cursed as well. However, I haven't felt any problems with this curse in the past few years, but it has always been a secret of mine. I didn't expect that you would find out about it today."
Upon hearing this, Ye Guyi's eyes were filled with suspicion towards Xu Zhengyang, but soon all her thoughts were focused on the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear, and she even couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"A curse? Can a cursed thing be transferred? Logically speaking, after Evil Soul Master dies, his weapon should inherit a portion of his evil aura, but it's rare for it to form a curse, let alone be able to transfer."
The more Ye Guyi studied it, the more interested she seemed to become. She even kept testing it with her Soul Power, especially her own special sacred Soul Power. Every time she injected it into the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear, it would disappear without a trace, like a mud ox sinking into the sea. This was a phenomenon that Ye Guyi had never experienced before.
"Impossible, impossible! My holy Angel Soul Power is naturally able to suppress evil spirits, and our Soul Power Level are similar. How could it be dissolved? This is completely illogical."
Xu Zhengyang also had some doubts. Ever since he destroyed the Soul Devouring Carving Knife and his Martial Soul was accidentally cursed, this curse seemed to have no effect on him over the years. He hadn't even experienced any chaos in his Soul Power during his cultivation process. His entire Martial Soul seemed to be in a special state of balance.
Even so, the curse remained a shadow in Xu Zhengyang's heart. He had thought about getting rid of it, but the curse was like a maggot clinging to his bone, or like the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear itself, neither acting up nor affecting him, which is why he had ignored it.
Ye Guyi studied the matter for a full ten minutes before speaking to Xu Zhengyang.
" Xu Zhengyang, I'm going to use my Holy Angel Martial Soul to test this evil aura with all my might. If it's truly confirmed to be a curse, then I misunderstood you, and I apologize. But if you are Evil Soul Master, I won't be polite to you either."
Xu Zhengyang didn't hesitate. "It's alright, I also want to get rid of this curse. How can I cooperate with you?"
Ye Guyi shook her head. "You don't need to do anything, just don't inject Soul Power into your Martial Soul, and don't let your Martial Soul react..."
"Just resist my holy Angel Soul Power."
After a brief exchange, Xu Zhengyang planted the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear in the ground and moved more than ten meters away.
Ye Guyi's Soul Power suddenly changed, and a huge Angel Phantom quickly appeared behind her, along with four Soul Ring: two yellow and two purple.
Immediately afterwards, a holy and radiant aura emanated from the Holy Angel, and a golden light instantly shone upon the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear. This was Ye Guyi's First Soul Skill: Holy Light Illumination.
Unexpectedly, when Ye Guyi's Holy Light Illumination was applied to the Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear, the entire Tiger-Head Zhan Gold Spear remained completely unaffected. In fact, due to the special holy light, it even emitted a fiery red aura, but the black patterns on its surface remained completely unmoved.
