" Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring! Damn, Brother Shangguan is awesome!"
Oscar exclaimed, even crouching down to examine the black Soul Ring beneath Shangguan Hong's feet with envy in his eyes! For ordinary Soul Master, reaching level 50 was necessary to obtain their first ten- Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, but he was only slightly over level 30, still a long way from becoming Soul King! What impressed him even more was that Shangguan Hong, despite being a year younger than him, already possessed Soul Power 10 levels higher than him—he was simply a monster among monsters!
Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up. Coming from a major sect, she knew better than anyone what this meant! Almost subconsciously, she moved towards Shangguan Hong. Of course, it didn't seem strange; it was just the intimacy between companions.
"You're a complete freak!"
Dai Mubai smiled bitterly, feeling that all his years of cultivation had been for nothing. Zhu Zhuqing was even more shocked; the thought that had silently crossed her mind, "If only Shangguan Hong were my betrothed," startled her! Indeed, if Shangguan Hong's cultivation were transferred to Dai Mubai, the throne of the Star Luo Empire would be a foregone conclusion! A 12-year-old Soul Elder was already a genius among geniuses, and a 12-year-old Soul Ancestor was unheard of!
Shangguan Hong smiled without saying a word. His level 43 Soul Power had already shocked everyone. If he were to display his level 67 Soul Power, it would likely cause a frenzy across the entire continent, with countless major sects going to great lengths to win him over.
"Where's the Little San? Isn't she with you?"
Shangguan Hong waved his hand, changing the subject, and the moment he finished speaking, a look of worry appeared on everyone's face.
As Shangguan Hong had predicted, Tang San had already been taken away by Dugu Bo. However, due to the appearance of his little butterfly, things took a slightly different turn. Dugu Bo took Tang San away in full view of everyone.
Everyone took turns explaining to Shangguan Hong.
After entering the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the Shrek Academy students maintained a respectful attitude, and the three academic committee members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy also showed great importance to it. They not only agreed to many of the Shrek Academy's requests, but were even willing to increase the allocated resources by 20%. All of this was because of Shangguan Hong, a 12-year-old Soul Ancestor with four souls! Unexpectedly, just as the two sides reached an agreement, Dugu Bo arrived, Dai Mubai beat up a prince, which prompted the elders of his family to intervene.
Dugu Bo easily taught Shrek Academy a lesson, but according to Oscar, this Titled Douluo seemed a bit impatient! Perhaps Shangguan Hong's actions in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well gave this Titled Douluo a bad feeling. After chatting with his granddaughter Dugu Yan for a while, Dugu Bo became very interested in Tang San. However, because he wanted to return to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well as soon as possible, he did not wait until night and took Tang San away in front of everyone.
Resistance was pointless, but before Dugu Bo left, Flender and Yu Xiaogang said something to him that surprised the Shrek Dugu Bo. This powerful Titled Douluo actually left a promise—to spare Tang San's life.
The details of that day cannot be imagined from just a few words, but Shangguan Hong didn't care.
'The butterfly effect, plus the halo of being the chosen one! Otherwise, no matter how eager Dugu Bo was, he would never have been swayed by a few words! Even if Flender and Yu Xiaogang revealed Tang San's identity, it would be the same! Heh, I'm actually looking forward to seeing how far Shrek can go without the immortal herbs within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well...'
Shangguan Hong thought to himself, his expression unchanged. After exchanging a few pleasantries with everyone and declining their request to see his Fourth Soul Skill, he immediately began cultivating!
Right now, strength is the most important thing! For Shangguan Hong, a year is enough time for his Soul Power to break through to the Soul Saint level! After all...
" Little Ao, where's our dorm? I've been through so much trouble, I need to take a shower first!"
"Oh, that's it! Shrek has its own dormitory area. The house with the shovel on the doorplate is yours!"
After Oscar pointed out the direction, Shangguan Hong got up and walked towards his dormitory. The moment he stepped into the room, the Purple Dead Sea spread out, and an evil aura silently spread. However, under the suppression of Shangguan Hong's level 67 Soul Power, even a Soul Saint could not detect anything unusual!
After confirming that there were no living creatures nearby, Shangguan Hong went into the bathroom. He took out a large pile of toiletries from his Storage Soul Tool, which looked rather fancy.
After washing for a full half hour, Shangguan Hong was finally satisfied. He then burned incense, purified himself, and sat cross-legged on the bed with a devout heart.
'System, dig for me!'
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained Hextech Deadlier Blades, Hextech Spear's Will, and Hextech Evolution. Conquer!]
Three sounds rang out in succession, one colorful and two golden, but the extraction of these three Hextech was somewhat unexpected for Shangguan Hong! He quickly opened his system panel:
Deadlier Blades: Prismatic Hextech, provides a [ Deathblade: Grants 55% bonus physical damage], and permanently increases the unit's bonus physical damage by 1% for each kill it participates in!
Spear's Will: Golden Hextech, provides two greatswords, and items crafted from them grant an additional 10% physical damage!
Evolve, then conquer: Golden Hextech, Void units gain three additional equipment slots and gradually mutate as the summoner's Soul Power increases!
After reading the introductions to the three Hextech, it took Shangguan Hong was sitting on the bed, a long time to calm himself down.
Unlike the three Hextech Hextech had acquired before, these three were true combat-level Hextech! Without any hesitation, Shangguan Hong directly fused the two greatswords stored in his system space into [ Deathblade ], and then unhesitatingly attached the two [ Deathblade ] to Baron Nashor! The Baron, hidden in the Dead Sea, seemed to sense the surge in power; the purple sea began to boil, and the evil aura grew increasingly intense!
'Two Deathblade, with infinitely stacked percentage-based physical attributes! Although the Hextech effect is slightly different from the one in my previous life, it's still top-tier! Baron Nashor could probably bite through Mordekaiser's plate armor in one bite! Even an ordinary Soul Saint who has activated their Martial Soul Avatar would definitely not be able to withstand its fangs! By the time of the Soul Master Tournament, the Baron will likely possess the power to kill Soul Douluo!'
Without a doubt, this is a huge improvement! Shangguan Hong is very satisfied with this. His Soul Power is already quite high, and having one person Reach the Summit is enough. The arrival of these three powerful combatants from Hextech is just in time!
'When I break through to the Soul Douluo level, where in this world will I be unable to go? At that time, the entire continent will become food for the Void!'
