Chapter 115: Ten Thousand Year Rouge Dragon.
"But Master, what kind of soul beast is that crushing the Meteor Tiger? It looks like it's trying to feed on it. You know, the Meteor Tiger is considered a high-ranking soul beast."
Dai Mubai quickly turned his attention to the other soul beast. It was obvious, however, that he didn't recognize it.
The master narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't answer Dai Mubai's question. Instead, he looked at Flanders and Liu Erlong.
"Flanders, Erlong, you two go first. Save the Meteor Tiger, and don't let the other soul beast escape."
Flanders and Liu Erlong didn't hesitate. Instantly, their martial spirits possessed them, and they charged forward.
"Roar!"
The soul beast roared furiously upon noticing Flanders and the others. But when it sensed their powerful aura, a hint of fear flickered in its eyes.
However, it didn't retreat a single step.
Even so, courage was no match for strength.
Overwhelmed by the two men's strength, the spirit beast lost its focus. The Meteor Tiger it was crushing was instantly rescued by Flender, who passed by.
Even the spirit beast itself was knocked to the ground by a single punch from the onrushing Liu Erlong, leaving it with no time to react.
Seeing both spirit beasts subdued, the Shrek crew hurried forward.
Xuan Mo examined the spirit beast, knocked unconscious by Liu Erlong. It had the body of an earth dragon, but with pink dragon scales and a pink crystal on its forehead.
"What kind of spirit beast is this?"
Just as Xuan Mo was puzzled, the Ice Dragon King's voice suddenly echoed in his mind. "Mo boy, this is a sub-dragon, a Rouge Dragon with the attribute of annihilation."
Xuan Mo's pupils narrowed slightly at this remark.
He had heard of the Rouge Dragon. It was the inherited martial spirit of the Earth Dragon Sect in Douluo Dalu II. While the Rouge Dragon wasn't as powerful as top-tier spirit beasts like the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python, it was certainly not weak. It also possesses the annihilation attribute. If its age is right, this would be his fourth spirit ring.
Meanwhile, "It's indeed a Rouge Dragon with the annihilation attribute."
The master looked at the spirit beast subdued by Liu Erlong before him and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. "Unfortunately, this spirit beast has already cultivated for 1600 years. If it were younger, this Rouge Dragon would be a perfect match for Xuan Mo."
Everyone's initial joy was instantly dampened upon hearing the master's words.
But then, "Master, that's easy," Oscar stepped forward and suggested, "Why not take this Rouge Dragon back and raise it in captivity? It could serve as Brother Mo's fifth spirit ring."
Everyone at Shrek's rank brightened at this suggestion.
After all, spirit beasts like the Rouge Dragon are hard to come by. Wouldn't it be much better if there were a way to deal with it?
Unexpectedly, after Oscar finished speaking, the Grandmaster paused for a moment before shaking his head in denial, "I'm afraid not."
"First, we're busy hunting other spirit beasts and don't have the energy to care for them. Second, the Rouge Dragon is a sub-dragon species, with a cultivation age of 16,000 years. Keeping it captive would be expensive, and there would be other risks at the academy. Therefore, I don't agree."
"This..."
Everyone was speechless. After all, the Grandmaster's words were true. It was indeed true. The Grandmaster ignored everything else, focusing his gaze on the dying Meteor Tiger. He called out, "Mubai."
Dai Mubai, hearing the Grandmaster's call, hurried forward. "
Here," the Grandmaster pointed at the Meteor Tiger. "This one is approximately 4,600 years old, perfect for you."
Dai Mubai, knowing the Grandmaster's meaning, stepped forward and looked at the fallen Meteor Tiger.
The dying Meteor Tiger offered no resistance to Dai Mubai.
Dai Mubai delivered a powerful blow, and the Meteor Tiger departed this world with utter reluctance, leaving behind only a circle of purple spirit rings.
As Dai Mubai sat cross-legged and absorbed the spirit rings, everyone's attention returned to the Rouge Dragon.
"Then this spirit beast..."
"Looks like we have no choice but to release it."
Following the Grandmaster's instructions, just as Liu Erlong was about to release the Rouge Dragon, "Wait a moment."
"Hmm?"
Amidst everyone's puzzled gazes, Xuan Mo slowly stepped forward.
It turned out that just now, during a discussion between Xuan Mo and the Ice Dragon King, the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings had proposed, "Young Mo, choose this ten-thousand-year-old Rouge Dragon for your fourth spirit ring."
Xuan Mo knew the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings had their reasons for their suggestion. So he hurriedly asked, "Why?"
"Mo boy, among the dragons of our Douluo Continent, there are two special dragons. One is the Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon with the attribute of destruction, and the other is the Rouge Dragon with the attribute of annihilation. These two dragon soul beasts are very rare. If you encounter a suitable one, don't let it go."
Just as the Fire Dragon King finished speaking, the voice of the Ice Dragon King rang out, "As for the age of the soul ring, you don't have to worry. With your physique and mental strength, it is more than enough. Even if it doesn't work, there are still the two of us. Hurry up, otherwise the Rouge Dragon will be released."
So as Xuan Mo came to his senses, he saw that the Rouge Dragon was about to be released, so he hurried forward to stop it.
"Brother Mo, what are you doing..."
Seeing Xuan Mo's serious expression, Ning Rongrong stepped forward and took Xuan Mo's arm with a look of concern. Just as she was about to say something, Xuan Mo stopped her.
Xuan Mo looked at Flender and the other teachers seriously and said, "Dean, I want to absorb the spirit ring of this Rouge Dragon."
"What did you say?"
Before the other teachers could react, Zhao Wuji, who was standing beside Xuan Mo, stepped forward and grabbed Xuan Mo's shoulder with his right hand. "Are you crazy? Don't you see that it's a ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast?"
The master who had reacted also looked at Xuan Mo deeply and said in a deep voice, "Teacher Zhao is right, Xuan Mo, you'd better give up that crazy idea."
However, Xuan Mo simply turned his gaze to Flender, his eyes unusually firm, and before Flender could open his mouth, he said.
"Dean, my first three spirit rings, without exception, were all absorbed beyond their respective levels. So this time, I'm going to give it a try too."
Flanders stared at Xuan Mo in shock. "Mo boy, this time is different than before. This is a ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast."
"Dean, I still want to give it a try."
Xuan Mo, his gaze fixed on the crowd, didn't shy away. Even Ning Rongrong, who tried to dissuade him, was stopped by Xuan Mo.
"Dean, I'm confident. Look at me, when have I ever done something I wasn't sure of?"
Seeing Flanders' hesitation, Xuan Mo persisted .
He knew that if Flanders agreed, the spirit ring absorption would be a done deal.
"How confident are you?"
Flanders glanced at Rouge Dragon, then fixed his gaze on Zhu Xuanmo, probing.
After all these years, Xuan Mo knew Flanders' temperament well, so he affirmed, "I'm 100% sure!"
Finally, Flanders nodded heavily. "Okay, I promise. I'm sure you won't let us down."
"What? Flanders..."
The teachers, seeing Flanders agree, became anxious.
But just as Zhao Wuji was about to speak, Flanders intervened, stopping him. He sighed and said, "This is Young Mo's own decision. We shouldn't get in his way."
At that moment, the teachers and students, including the most emotional Ning Rongrong, quieted down.
Flanders then looked at Xuan Mo again and nodded deeply.
"Be careful."
