Chapter 132 Shrek City
Chapter 133 Shrek City
The duel atop the mountain was over, and the various families returned to their respective homes.
Li Luochen, along with his men, prepared to head to the main campus of Shrek Academy, now known as Shrek City. Shrek City's territory is located in a large city southwest of Tiandou City.
Its wealth surpasses that of Soto City, and it is roughly the same size as the Seven Treasures City of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School. This shows how much Emperor Xueye values Li Luochen, and even more so Shrek Academy, which can nurture Li Luochen.
Li Luochen and his group arrived at a city area where the wall was only about 60% complete. Tall, muscular men were carrying huge bricks and stones.
The most imposing of them all had a face as red as a jujube. Although his short, needle-like hair was already turning gray, his complexion remained ruddy, and his large, bell-like eyes were bright and piercing. He was extremely tall, with a solid chest and very broad shoulders. Although the long robe he wore was very loose, his incredibly strong physique was still evident in his movements. He looked like a broad and solid fortress.
This is Niu Gao, the patriarch of the Yu Clan, a highly talented individual who was severely humiliated by Li Luochen with gold soul coins. Who says construction is incompetent? Infrastructure is the foundation of everything. The Yu Clan's construction skills are extremely high; the city walls they built cannot be breached even by a Soul Master at full strength.
Li Luochen further utilized his knowledge from his previous life. He knew a bit about reinforced concrete and its formula, but the Yu Clan had a better formula, while the Li Clan was responsible for forging the steel bars.
Reinforcing steel bars were added inside, then concrete was poured, and finally, giant stone bricks were placed using the unique method of the Royal Clan. In this way, Shrek City would be indestructible.
It's a pity that Li Luochen doesn't know how to use soul tools. If he could put soul cannons on the city walls, Shrek City would be indestructible. However, Li Luochen used to study humanities and is completely inept at science.
Li Luochen knew that the current lifestyle of the Yu clan was 996, which was specially arranged by Li Luochen. Originally, Niu Gao had arranged for them to work 007 in order to end the work sooner, but Li Luochen ended up taking over.
Good heavens, if these guys were in that other world, these burly men would be incredibly lucky. They take on any hard or tiring work, don't even want rest days, they're willing to risk their lives for money.
"Hey! How's the construction of the Bull Tribe's Great Wall going?"
Li Luochen went straight to Niu Gao's side and asked how the construction of Shrek City was going. It wasn't that he didn't want to ask about anything else, but this old rhinoceros was obsessed with money. Apart from work-related matters, he didn't care about anything else. He was a typical heartless worker.
"Oh, Lord Li, the project, which was originally expected to take a year, can be completed in about ten months. At that time, Shrek City will definitely be a famous metropolis on the Douluo Continent!"
Niu Gao patted his chest and assured him that, after all, Li Luochen had given him so many gold soul coins that they were enough to keep his Yu clan rich for decades or even centuries.
Li Luochen nodded and then left, seeing several strong, upright figures on the way.
These are disciples of the Breaking Clan. The Breaking Clan likes alchemy and spear training. Of course, not all disciples like alchemy; some prefer to specialize in the Soul-Breaking Spear.
The patrol duties in Shrek City were left to these people, led by the young patriarch of the Po clan, named Yang Pojun, a level 78 Battle Soul Saint.
Yang Pojun is the strongest member of the Po clan besides Yang Wudi. His Soul-Breaking Spear technique is even more formidable than Yang Wudi's. Li Luochen, also a Soul Master, has naturally fought against him. In short, his future is promising! Yang Pojun, in his forties, is the only son of Yang Wushuang, Yang Wudi's younger brother. Yang Wushuang has disappeared, and Yang Wudi's own wife and daughter died during the family's migration. Yang Wudi treats Yang Pojun like his own child, and Yang Pojun possesses extraordinary strength to become the next clan leader.
Moreover, Yang Pojun is the most likely member of the Po clan to reach the title of Douluo, but Yang Wudi also seems to be able to.
Ever since Yang Wudi obtained the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item, he has been unstoppable, becoming obsessed with alchemy. When Li Luochen first met Yang Wudi, Yang Wudi's soul power had already reached level eighty-three.
Li Luochen remembered clearly the cultivation levels of the four clan leaders: Titan's highest cultivation level was 86, Niu Gao's was 84, Yang Wudi's was 82, and Bai He's was 81.5.
Moreover, there were still at least eight years until that time, yet Yang Wudi's strength had reached level eighty-three, indicating that he had obtained the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Item ahead of time and had refined many pills to aid his cultivation.
After all, the Po clan has a lot of rare and precious medicinal herbs in their herb garden. Moreover, the people of the Heavenly Dou Empire don't know their value. Some of these herbs, though poisonous when used alone, become excellent medicines for improving cultivation when mixed with other poisons.
The Po Clan's cultivation has greatly increased since arriving in Shrek City. The clan now boasts eight Soul Saint level experts: Clan Chief Yang Wudi is level 83, Young Clan Chief Yang Pojun is level 78, and the Grand Elder is level 77.
The Po clan indeed has a promising future. Li Luochen has experienced the Po Soul Spear, a top-tier weapon spirit. The Po Soul Spear also has unique characteristics, such as the Seven Kill Sword possessing a killing aura, the Haotian Hammer having an astonishing weight, and the Panlong Staff having the Heavenly Awakening Sacred Golden Dragon with extremely strong power.
The Soul-Shattering Spear, on the other hand, possesses the attribute of destruction. In other words, if you are stabbed by it, the wound is extremely difficult to heal. The attribute of destruction can suppress the ability to recover. Top-tier weapon spirits all possess unique characteristics.
However, the Po clan prefers knowledge about alchemy. They spend a lot of time practicing alchemy, and the toxins in the medicinal materials can clog the meridians and affect cultivation if they practice for too long.
This is why Yang Wudi, despite his strong talent, didn't have high soul power. Firstly, refining medicine took too much time, and secondly, the medicine blocked his meridians. Otherwise, at Yang Wudi's age, he would at least be a high-level Soul Douluo.
However, it's pretty much the same now. Li Luochen first met Yang Wudi more than a year ago when he was traveling in the Star Luo Empire. Dugu Bo invited Yang Wudi to come to the Heaven Dou Empire to make a living. At that time, Yang Wudi was being jointly ostracized by the Star Luo Empire and the Martial Soul Branch Hall.
In a fit of anger, Yang Wudi left the Star Luo Empire. Helpless, the Star Luo Empire wanted to control the alchemy business of the Po Clan and bring the Po Clan under its royal control.
Yang Wudi, with his fiery temper, simply led his clan away. As for why the Star Luo Empire didn't retaliate, it's because right after Yang Wudi was about to leave, Li Luochen dealt with the Star Luo Empire's Martial Soul Branch Hall. The Pope's Decree was truly useful.
Then, they caused a huge disturbance in the Star Luo Empire. The Star Luo Empire had no time to deal with the Po Clan. The Po Clan went straight to Longxing City and stayed with Niu Gao for a while.
After Li Luochen and his group finished their business, they went to Longxing City and recruited the Po Clan and the Yu Clan.
