Chapter 121 The Evil Soul Master's Killing Machine - Xuanzi
Lan Xuanyu spoke up at the opportune moment, his tone gentle, "If Huo Yuhao is afraid of dying, he doesn't need to join the monitoring team; everyone will understand—"
This sarcastic tone is really not very pleasant to listen to.
For a moment, most of the Shrek team members were watching the show with amusement, especially Yao Haoxuan and Chen Zifeng.
Huo Yuhao smiled understandingly. "I'm taking responsibility for myself, unlike Lan Xuanyu, who uses his life as a bargaining chip for stubbornness."
Lan Xuanyu's face immediately darkened.
"What did you say?!"
"Never mind, never mind—" Wang Yan walked over with a wry smile to smooth things over, "After all, Huo Yuhao hasn't joined the inner academy yet, and the inspection team's mission isn't mandatory. If he doesn't want to go, he doesn't have to. We're all from the same academy, so let's be mindful of unity."
Wang Yan's last sentence was clearly directed at Huo Yuhao, and for a moment Huo Yuhao seemed to become the target of everyone's criticism in this team.
Xuanzi stopped looking at Huo Yuhao and instead waved the wine gourd in his hand. "Little Wang, explain the mission and distribute the equipment to everyone. This time, I, the old man, will personally lead the team. What trouble can a mere evil soul master cause? We'll make these ignorant fools know the might of Shrek Academy!"
Upon hearing Xuanzi's words, even Lan Xuanyu was invigorated, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The evil spirit masters from his previous life had all been incorporated into the Federation's dark forces. Although he hadn't seen many of them, he had at least heard of them.
Almost all of them are vicious and wicked, and many of them possess strange and unusual abilities, causing havoc in their communities and disrupting the order of the world.
Lan Xuanyu, with his strong sense of justice, naturally wanted to exterminate these villains who threatened world peace!
"Yes." Wang Yan replied, taking out rings from his storage soul tool and handing them to each member of the reserve team.
Huo Yuhao, naturally, tactfully moved to the side.
Lan Xuanyu looked at his supervisory team uniform and couldn't help but frown.
This equipment isn't exactly luxurious, but it's better than nothing.
He wore leather armor that was of questionable durability, along with a dark green mask and cloak.
That's all.
Lan Xuanyu tugged at his leather armor, sighing inwardly. If only he had battle armor; what good was this little thing?
"—Our current mission is to travel to a mountainous region bordering the Star Luo Empire and the Sun Moon Empire to find and eliminate a group of bandits known as the Hand of Death. The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament is approaching, so we must complete this mission within three to four days."
The definition of evil spirit masters varies across different eras. Some people may possess evil martial spirits but act normally, and these people cannot be considered evil spirit masters.
However, there are several fixed standards.
Those who cultivate by devouring soul power, soul rings, spiritual power, flesh and blood, soul, and martial soul are all classified as evil soul masters.
Hmm, why does it seem like Lan Xuanyu and Tang San are cultivating according to this standard? How strange—
The Star Luo Empire, in the central region of the Mingdou Mountains.
"—Sister Tao, didn't you go to the military camp with them?"
Ma Xiaotao gracefully walked over and sat down next to Huo Yuhao, watching the sunrise with him. She teased, "There's a lonely little boy over here. Since I'm kind-hearted, I came to keep him company."
Huo Yuhao gave a wry smile. "Thank you, Sister Xiaotao, but I'm not that fragile."
Ma Xiaotao stopped talking and leaned against Huo Yuhao, watching the beautiful sunrise and enjoying the rare tranquility.
When the sun had fully risen, Wang Yan and the others found Ma Xiaotao and Huo Yuhao.
They obtained some information from the Xingluo military camp and prepared to go into the mountains to suppress the bandits.
Huo Yuhao originally didn't plan to go with them; he was going to wait here until they finished suppressing the bandits before heading to Xingluo City together.
But seeing these green-skinned guys, he still felt uneasy and walked over.
"Be careful, take this with you."
In Huo Yuhao's palm was a level 5 trigger-type defensive soul tool. Ma Xiaotao pursed her lips.
Then, to the astonishment of Gongyang Moling, Luo Chen, and the others, Ma Xiaotao, who had always looked down on soul tools, actually accepted it—
Out of consideration for his teammates, Huo Yuhao had already given Ning Tian and Wu Feng each a soul-guided shield before leaving, while He Caitou already had one of his own.
"—Junior Brother Yuhao, do you still have any of these soul-guided shields? I'd like to buy one."
"I want to buy one too!"
Huo Yuhao looked at Gongyang Mo and Ling Luochen, who had stepped forward, with surprise, blinked twice, and then took out two small iron pieces and placed them in their hands.
"No need to buy it, just give it to your seniors for protection."
After accepting the soul-guided shield, Gongyang Mo stared blankly at Huo Yuhao's handsome face and couldn't help but add a comment.
"Junior Yuhao, you're so kind—"
Her voice trembled slightly, making Huo Yuhao's heart tremble as if his body was covered in Blue Silver Grass.
"—You should just give it back to me."
Gongyang Mo chuckled and quickly retracted his words, "Hey, hey—just kidding, just kidding."
Upon seeing this, Chen Zifeng couldn't help but sneer. The noble martial soul elite actually had to use the cowardly stuff that only soul guide system idiots use. Ma Xiaotao is really getting more and more out of touch with reality.
Hearing Chen Zifeng's sneer, Ling Luochen rolled her eyes at him, not wanting to pay him any attention. Just as Gongyang Mo was about to retort, Xuanzi's voice came from the side.
"With me here, what need is there for these things! Just go and kill the enemy without worry. A few mere thieves and evil spirit masters, how could they possibly be a match for you inner court elites? Have some confidence!"
Despite saying that, Ma Xiaotao and the others still carefully placed the defensive shield that Huo Yuhao had given them close to their bodies.
Xuanzi laughed mockingly, took a few more sips of aged wine, his eyes glazed over as if he were reminiscing about the past.
Back then, I was young and handsome, possessed the bloodline of a divine beast, and was the number one genius of Shrek Academy. I traveled all over the country, upholding justice and leaving behind a romantic legend on the Douluo Continent.
Looking back now, I really miss it.
Then, Xuanzi couldn't help but speak up, "You know, when I was young and adventuring across the mainland, I had a very famous nickname!"
"In my time, just mentioning my name was enough to strike fear into the hearts of evil spirit masters!"
With his exceptionally high emotional intelligence, Yao Haoxuan immediately stepped forward and asked with great interest, "May I ask what Elder Xuan's former title was? Could you let us juniors hear it?"
Elder Xuan wiped the wine from his mouth and said with pride.
"I! Xuanzi! The Killing Machine of Evil Soul Masters!"
