Return to the academy
Shrek Academy Inner Court Sea God Pavilion
After a long journey Shrek group finally returned to the Shrek Academy. Upon their return, they did not immediately go their separate ways, but were guided by some of the Inner Court teachers to the most supreme place in the Shrek Academy: the Sea God Pavilion.
Of course, Ma Xiaotao, who was still unconscious, was also carried to the Sea God Pavilion, but unlike the others, she was carried to the infirmary.
The fact that they were able to come to the Sea God Pavilion surprised everyone present. After all, was it really necessary to make such a solemn occasion for just a Soul Master Tournament?
As Dai Yueheng and others who had previously participated as reserve teams, they knew that the teams in the last major tournament didn't receive such treatment!
However, recalling the mistakes their main team made this time, which forced them to rely too heavily on the reserve team, they vaguely understood why they were at the Sea God Pavilion this time.
Xu Xingyu had doubts about this point. The reserve team's performance this time was different from that in the original work. The performance in the original work did not include certain cheating behaviors and was basically a perfect answer sheet.
However, the reserve team's performance this time was a complete mess. They basically had no teamwork in the first game, and although things improved somewhat in the following games, it was only because the regular players suppressed their dissatisfaction.
Upon their arrival at the Sea God Pavilion, the Dean of the Martial Soul Department Yan Shaozhe, and the Dean of the Soul Tool Department, Xian Lin'er, who had been waiting for them, personally greeted them and led them into the main hall of the Sea God Pavilion.
It was at this moment that Yan Shaozhe spoke up, "Children, you've worked hard this time. We never expected to win this Soul Master Tournament with a weakened formation. Your achievements will be recorded in the Sea God Pavilion Sea God Pavilion, and your rewards will be distributed there. As for Huo Yuhao..."
At this moment Yan Shaozhe looked at Huo Yuhao, who was bound, and sighed, saying, "Let's leave you to Dean Xian's disposal for now. After all, you are talents from their Soul Tool Department."
Yan Shaozhe never expected that a perfectly good genius would turn out to be Evil Soul Master.
Of course, the person most furious about this was Xian Lin'er, the dean of the Soul Tool Department. You have to understand that their Soul Tool Department Soul Tool Department Huo Yuhao as the key to their rise, and yet you called him Evil Soul Master!
Because of her past experiences, Xian Lin'er deeply hated Evil Soul Master. Therefore, when she heard that Huo Yuhao was Evil Soul Master, she imagined a story in her mind about a genius Evil Soul Master infiltrating Shrek Academy to find out its secrets.
Therefore, Xian Lin'er did not intend to show any mercy during this interrogation. Even if Huo Yuhao was not a disciple of the so-called Holy Spirit Cult at all, she would force him to admit it in order to salvage the image of the Shrek Academy.
Soon, under everyone's gaze, Xian Lin'er dragged Huo Yuhao away, seemingly heading towards the interrogation room of the Sea God Pavilion.
To this, the Shrek Academy's regular and reserve members could only wish themselves good luck. Their relationship with Huo Yuhao wasn't great to begin with, and even his closest friend Bei Bei, stopped speaking to him due to ideological differences.
The only one who was worried about Huo Yuhao's safety was Ling Luochen. After all, after spending two months together in the competition Ling Luochen had long regarded Huo Yuhao as a substitute for his deceased younger brother.
With this in mind, Ling Luochen naturally didn't think Huo Yuhao was Evil Soul Master, but at the moment, Ling Luochen couldn't help Huo Yuhao much.
After all, even if her family wasn't willing to help her, they didn't have the ability to help clear Huo Yuhao's name. Once you're labeled Evil Soul Master, removing that label is harder than climbing to heaven.
It's important to know that many so-called Evil Soul Master didn't cultivate their martial spirits in Evil direction before obtaining the Evil Soul Master label; they were just ordinary Darkness Attribute Martial Soul.
They were simply labeled as Evil Soul Master, which made them ostracized by everyone in the Douluo Continent. In the end, they truly became Evil Soul Master because of their mental breakdown.
After Huo Yuhao's little interlude ended, it was time for the so-called reward segment.
The rewards given by the academy this time are somewhat different from those in the original work.
Firstly, the main team members' failure in this mission made the competition so difficult, but since the result of this competition was a victory, this incident will not be recorded in their files.
This punishment applies to all the main team members except for Xu Xingyu and Jiang Nannan. The reason for this difference is mainly because they were the two who minimized casualties during the mission to hunt down Evil Soul Master by using the power of their Soul Tool.
At the same time, it was Xu Xingyu who covered the rear at the crucial moment, allowing the injured trainees and reserve team members to escape in time.
Therefore, Xu Xingyu and Jiang Nannan were each given the opportunity to choose a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone from the Sea God Pavilion's treasury as a reward.
Wang Yan's reward is the same as in the original novel: free access to the Sea God Pavilion's library for one year.
As for the reward for the reserve team, it's different from the original story where they were given seven Soul Bone suitable for them. Instead, the three Soul Bone that were supposed to be given as a reward for this Soul Master Tournament were given to them and they were allowed to distribute them among themselves.
The three Soul Bone obtained in this competition were three Soul Bone that were over 50,000 years old, a Diamond Wolf Right Arm Bone, a Ghost Leopard Right Leg Bone, and a Wisdom Illusion Demon Ape Head Soul Bone.
Because Wang Dong'er and Xu Yanxue had better options due to their connection with the Spirit Contract Pagoda, they did not participate in this allocation process.
Ultimately Diamond Wolf Right Arm Bone was given to the Power Attack System, Bei Bei. His original Martial Soul was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and his Lightning Attribute was a perfect match for Diamond Wolf's metal attribute.
The Ghost Leopard Right Leg Bone was given to Xiao Xiao, since she lacked a means of rapid movement, and this Soul Bone could greatly enhance her survivability on the battlefield.
The final Wisdom Illusion Demon Ape Head Soul Bone was given to He Caitou, because a strong Spiritual Power is essential for a Soul Engineer; otherwise, it would be impossible to calm down and create Soul Tool and study the blueprints.
As for Xu Xingyu, she took the Light Demon-Breaking Right Arm Bone from Shrek's treasure vault and gave it directly to Wang Dong'er. At the same time, she gave Xu Yanxue the Snow Demon Head Soul Bone that she had previously possessed and the Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone that Gu Yuena had given her.
He also gave Jiang Nannan the external wing Soul Bone of the Silver Emperor Heavenly Sparrow that Yan Shaozhe had given him before.
Jiang Nannan chose a left leg bone provided by a Time-Piercing Beast, a rare time-type Soul Beast whose abilities perfectly complemented the external wing Soul Bone of the Silver Emperor Heavenly Sparrow.
After all the rewards were distributed, Xu Xingyu was called away by Yan Shaozhe alone, which seemed to be related to Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire.
Hopefully, this time the problem of the other party's Evil Fire can be solved once and for all. To be honest, Xu Xingyu was already tired of helping Ma Xiaotao suppress her Evil Fire.
In fact, the problem of the Evil Fire was completely resolved this time, but Xu Xingyu lost something in the process of gaining something.
