Silves City, Great Spirit Arena.
As the capital of the Silves Kingdom, the Great Spirit Arena here looked even more magnificent than the Suotuo Spirit Arena. Its level of luxury was at least one grade higher.
On the central main spirit battle stage, a male and a female Soul Master were engaged in a fierce battle.
No, rather than a battle, it was more like one-sided torment.
In a private box by the stage, Aosiluo watched the seemingly crazed Dugu Yan on the stage and couldn't help but swallow.
"Sister Yan Yan... she's okay, right?" Aosiluo said, trembling.
The room was silent. Everyone stared blankly at the spirit battle stage. At this moment, Dugu Yan felt so unfamiliar to them, as if they were meeting for the first time.
Qin Ming stood by the window, his arms crossed, and frowned slightly.
In his impression, although Dugu Yan was no well-behaved student, she had never acted so crazily.
As expected of the Poison Douluo's granddaughter. Her temperament is truly hard to grasp. Qin Ming shook his head to himself.
On the stage, Dugu Yan's eyes were bloodshot and her breathing was rapid. Her hair, due to the surging soul power, was disheveled down her back. Her whole person looked like a crazed tiger.
Her opponent was a burly man. After his Giant Bear Martial Soul possession, he was over two meters tall. At this moment, however, the man was curled up on the ground, only able to barely raise his hands to protect his head.
If one observed closely, a clue could be seen. The burly man's lips were dark, his face pale. Clearly, he was already afflicted with Dugu Yan's Jade Phosphor Serpent poison.
At this moment, Dugu Yan stomped her foot, leaping two or three meters high. She bent her right knee and slammed it viciously toward the burly man's body.
"Kacha!" The sound of a bone breaking rang out.
"Ah!" This was followed by a pig-like squeal of agony.
The burly man gritted his teeth, clutching his right leg tightly. His body trembled violently, and pea-sized beads of sweat rolled continuously down his forehead. He nearly fainted.
The burly man raised his head slightly. His eyes were filled with despair and fear. Gazing at the demon-like Dugu Yan before him, he mumbled, "Mer... mercy..."
Dugu Yan acted as if she hadn't heard. Her gaze held only coldness and indifference. She raised her right foot again, launching a sharp attack straight at the burly man's chest.
"Bang!" The burly man felt an immense force from his chest. His body flew out like a kite with a broken string, smashing heavily below the stage and kicking up a cloud of dust.
On the spirit battle stage, the host tremblingly raised his right hand. "Main... Main Spirit Arena, Soul Ancestor one-on-one. The winner is contestant Jade Phosphor Queen."
At this moment, two men in red clothes quickly walked over from the side of the stage. They came to the burly man's side and helped him up.
"Be gentle... my leg is broken," the burly man said through gritted teeth.
The burly man turned his head to look at Dugu Yan. However, after only a single glance, the burly man felt as if he were being stared down by a venomous snake, and a sense of fear instantly rose in his heart.
The burly man's name was Meng Li, a notorious figure in the Silves Great Spirit Arena.
It was just that this "fame" was one of infamy and notoriety.
The team he belonged to was called the Fierce God Team, which was infamous in the Spirit Arena. The team members were all power attack system Soul Masters. Moreover, they had vicious personalities and often took pleasure in torturing and killing their opponents. If not a hundred, at least eighty Soul Masters had died at their hands.
Gradually, no one was willing to compete against the Fierce God Team. People even joined forces to boycott them.
If they hadn't stayed in the Spirit Arena all the time, they probably would have been ambushed, killed, and disposed of long ago.
Today, the Spirit Arena supervisor suddenly found Meng Li, saying a Soul Master had requested to challenge him by name, and moreover, it was a young girl.
Meng Li naturally agreed readily. He had already decided in his heart that he would viciously torture and kill his opponent before the referee called a stop.
Who would have thought...
In the VIP room, the Heaven Dou Imperial Team watched Dugu Yan walk off the stage. All of them were silent.
This was the first time they had seen Dugu Yan, with her Soul Ancestor strength, attack with her full power.
"Is... is this the strength of a level 49 Soul Ancestor?" Yu Feng said with lingering fear.
Yu Feng imagined himself in the burly man's position. He found that he probably couldn't even last one minute.
No, Dugu Yan would only need one move to defeat him.
"Yanzi is our teammate. We should feel fortunate," Yu Tianheng said indifferently.
However, the expression of forced calm on his face indicated that his heart was far from peaceful.
"Sister Yan seems to have been in a bad mood ever since leaving Suotuo City," Aosiluo swallowed and said cautiously.
Aosiluo racked his brain, trying to remember if he had offended Dugu Yan recently.
If he accidentally angered Dugu Yan in this state, Aosiluo felt that not even his father, the Duke, could necessarily protect him.
Suddenly, Aosiluo came to a realization.
Wait! I've been the one getting bullied my whole life!
At this thought, Aosiluo instantly relaxed. He leaned back casually on the sofa, crossed his legs, and reverted to his usual silk-panted hedonist appearance.
On the stage, Dugu Yan glanced casually at Meng Li. Ignoring the fierce gazes from the other two men, she strode away.
Dugu Yan had been in a very bad mood ever since leaving Suotuo City.
Zhu Zhuqing's cultivation talent wasn't bad. Her status as a young miss of the Star Luo Zhu Family... she was barely worthy of becoming my sister.
If it had been an ordinary person, I would have slapped her long ago.
What right does she have to steal a man from me, Dugu Yan?
But Dugu Yan had never been so aggrieved in her entire life.
She wanted to kill someone.
Therefore, after arriving at the Spirit Arena, Dugu Yan found the manager here, hoping to participate in an unrestricted spirit battle.
Of course, Dugu Yan was not some malicious person. She had already investigated and found that this Fierce God Team was despised by everyone.
Against such a character, just breaking one of his legs... I feel like I'm letting him off easy.
Dugu Yan walked into the private box, and everyone's gaze immediately turned to her.
At this, Aosiluo leaped up from the sofa, stood stick-straight, and shouted, "We welcome the return of Her Majesty, the Queen!"
Dugu Yan gave him a speechless look. "Little Ao, are you itching for a beating again?"
Ye Lingling walked over, linked her arm with Dugu Yan's, and giggled. "Sister Yan Yan, you were so scary just now."
Dugu Yan smiled and gently patted Ye Lingling's hand. After this battle, she felt her mood had improved significantly.
Dugu Yan walked up to Qin Ming, lowered her head, and said, "Teacher Qin, I apologize. I was a bit willful this time."
Qin Ming nodded slightly. "Yanzi, everyone has moments of unhappiness. There's nothing wrong with releasing stress. But in the future, you must be mindful of your limits. After all, all of us were worried about you."
"Thank you, Teacher Qin. And thank you, everyone."
Meanwhile, in the Fierce God Team's rest area.
Two men sat on the sofa, silent.
Meng Li lay on a stretcher. His thigh had been set by a healing-type Soul Master's soul skill. But as for the snake poison in his body, that Soul Master was powerless.
Meng Li currently felt dizzy and muddle-headed. One moment his body felt like it was in a volcano, the next as if plunged into an ice cellar. He couldn't muster any strength.
"With the boss's injuries, he probably won't be out of bed for half a month," a man said in a low voice.
This man was blind in one eye and wore a black eyepatch. His voice sounded somewhat sinister.
"Hmph! It's always our Fierce God Team bullying others, never us being bullied. We must avenge this!" another man said viciously.
This man was very tall, with a body of powerful muscles, a shiny bald head, and a hideous scar on his right cheek.
"That person's status isn't ordinary. I'd say she's under twenty. A Soul Ancestor at this age is probably a genius from some major power," the one-eyed man mused.
"Damn it! Are we just going to let this go?" the bald man slapped the sofa and said loudly.
A sinister light flashed in the one-eyed man's eye. "With the boss injured this time, who knows how many people are laughing at us behind our backs. Since we can't afford to provoke that woman, we can just take it out on someone else to get our reputation back."
Shrek Academy, on the field.
The Shrek Academy students and teachers were gathered, preparing to set off for Heaven Dou City.
After more than a month of rest, everyone's energy and spirits were at their peak.
During one dinner, Ning Rongrong suddenly became interested in Tang San's sleeve arrows. After her persistent pestering, Tang San gave everyone a demonstration of his hidden weapons.
Afterward, everyone became interested in these well-concealed hidden weapons with their impressive lethality.
Tang San was not stingy and equipped every student with a set of hidden weapons, including the Zhuge God-Crossbow. Of course, he charged for them.
After Ning Rongrong used the hidden weapons personally, she immediately realized the value of these weapons. Thus, just as in the original work, she paid Tang San a large advance fee to craft more.
On the field, Flender coughed lightly. "Our academy is moving to Heaven Dou City. We are not going there to enjoy life, but to accept a greater challenge."
"Therefore, this Dean has decided to carry forward the traditional spirit of our Shrek Academy: the entire student body will run to Heaven Dou Academy."
"The Dean is so stingy. It's so far, and he actually wants us to run there," Oscar muttered under his breath.
"Bang!" Flender strode in front of Oscar and knocked heavily on his head.
"Hmph! Oscar, this Dean has worried himself sick over you all, and you can't even appreciate my good intentions?"
With that, Flender waved his large hand. "Everyone, set out!"
