Shrek Academy, External Courtyard.
Du Weilun, with a strange expression, knocked on the door of Yan Shaozhe's office, "Dean, I have a message to tell you."
"Welun? Then come in." The door opened automatically, and Yan Shaozhe, who was sitting at the desk, replied without raising his head, staring at the document in his hand with a frown.
"Yes."
Du Weilun walked in, took out a letter of inquiry, and said, "Dean, the spies of Xuanming City sent a message that not long ago, the third young master of Xuanming Sect, Xu Tianxi, and an old servant ran away from home, but this matter did not cause much waves in Xuanming Sect."
"Xu Tianxi? Is it the third young master of Xuanming Sect, Xu Sanshi's half-brother, who I asked you to keep an eye on two years ago? He ran away from home?"
Yan Shaozhe's sight finally shifted from the document to Du Weilun, and his brain thought for a while, and soon remembered who Xu Tianxi was.
An arrogant and ignorant child.
Du Weilun nodded, "That's him. According to the information sent by the spies, Xu Tianxi has been living in seclusion in Xuanming Sect for the past two years. He almost only appears in the library. He never participates in the social activities of his peers, nor is he close to his elders. He is very withdrawn."
"He is only accompanied by an old servant left by his mother and a companion student assigned to him by Xuanming Sect. Apart from that, he has no other close friends. The old servant left with him this time."
"Because he has no sense of existence in the Xuanming Sect, and it is common for a soul master to practice for ten days or half a month. The people of the Xuanming Sect discovered his disappearance half a month after he left, but they did not go hunting soul rings. They searched his room and found a letter indicating that he had run away from home."
Yan Shaozhe's eyes showed surprise, "He has been well fed and well fed in the Xuanming Sect, so why did he run away from home for no reason?"
Du Weilun said, "Maybe he couldn't stand the exclusion in the sect. He never participates in interpersonal relationships in the Xuanming Sect, so those clansmen can't help but treat him coldly, and Xue Lingxun also promised us that we would strictly discipline him. According to reports from spies, he has not been welcomed in the sect for the past two years."
Yan Shaozhe thought about it after hearing this, and his eyes understood, "I think this is the only reason. What about his father? And Old Monster Xu, is there any news?"
It took Xue Lingxun two years to force this kid to run away from home. Xue Lingxun is quite efficient, so we can relax our vigilance against Xu Sanshi in the future.
"Xu Fu, the head of the Xuanming clan, has been in seclusion for two years and has not come out since then. We cannot find out the whereabouts of Old Monster Xu, but he has long claimed that he will practice in seclusion. In fact, before you told us that this old monster is alive, we didn't know that there was such a person in the Xuanming clan."
Du Weilun said at the end, his tone was a little helpless. He couldn't let someone investigate the whereabouts of the 98th level Super Douluo, right? It was simply unrealistic.
"That's true. I'm a bit embarrassed for you. If you can't find it, don't look for it. Old Monster Xu has many descendants and he's old. I'm afraid he doesn't have much energy to focus on that kid."
Yan Shaozhe nodded, his frown relaxed, and he couldn't help but chuckled twice, "Haha, I was worried about Xiaotao's matter, and you brought me good news, which is very good."
"Xiaotao's matter? Do you mean the evil fire in her martial soul?"
Du Weilun's eyes moved. Ma Xiaotao cultivated to the Soul King realm at the age of sixteen. She is the leader of the next generation of Shrek Seven Devils. There is only one problem, the evil fire that comes with her martial soul.
"Yes, Xiaotao is good in everything, but this evil fire hurts people. At present, her cultivation is not high, and Ling Luochen, Xu Sanshi and others can help suppress it, but if she cultivates to the Soul Emperor or even the Soul Saint realm, this evil fire will be a big problem."
Talking about his most valued personal disciple, Yan Shaozhe scratched his hair with a sad face, and he had a headache.
Ling Luochen and Ma Xiaotao are of similar age, but Ling Luochen's cultivation talent is far inferior to the latter. He is still a Soul Sect cultivator now, and the gap will only get bigger in the future; Xu Sanshi has a good cultivation talent, but he is much older than her, and his Mysterious Nether Turtle Martial Soul is of water attribute, which is not as effective as Ling Luochen's Ice Elemental Martial Soul.
More importantly, Ma Xiaotao doesn't like to deal with interpersonal relationships, and has a bad relationship with Ling Luochen. Ling Luochen is not very willing to help her suppress the evil fire. As for Xu Sanshi... he can't avoid it or resist it.
"Xiao Tao's Phoenix Evil Fire is close to the Ultimate Fire. To solve her hidden danger, only an Ultimate Martial Spirit Master can do it. Theoretically, Ultimate Ice and Ultimate Water can both do it. Or find the legendary immortal grass that Tang San's ancestor found for Xiao Tao's ancestor. But these two things are almost impossible. It's a headache..."
Yan Shaozhe rubbed his eyebrows helplessly and swore secretly that if there was an Ultimate Ice or Ultimate Water Spirit Master in the world, he would definitely catch this person... Bring him back to Shrek to train him well, and help Xiao Tao deal with the evil fire. Maybe it can even help them get married.
If the Ultimate Martial Spirit can be passed down, Shrek will live forever.
Du Weilun smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. If this doesn't work, we can also look for strong people with ice-attributed martial spirits and ask them to come to the academy to help. With the strength of our academy, what kind of spirit master can't we find? If a Titled Douluo takes action, it won't be a problem to suppress them for decades."
What Du Weilun didn't expect was that his unintentional words immediately attracted Yan Shaozhe's sharp and stern gaze.
"Wei Lun, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you know that our Shrek is the best academy in the world?"
Du Weilun was immediately frightened and sweated. He lowered his head and said, "Dean, I know, I just..."
"Pound!" Yan Shaozhe slammed the table and stood up. He raised his hand to stop Du Weilun from speaking and said sternly:
"I know you didn't mean to say that, but Weilun, you must always remember that our Shrek is the number one academy in the world and a holy place in the world of soul masters. Things like failing to resolve the hidden dangers of the students must never be spread. Do you understand?"
Du Weilun almost lowered his head to the table and responded, "Weilun understands."
"That's good to understand. Let me tell you, the foundation of our academy is far beyond your imagination. There is a ten-thousand-year-old black ice bed in the Poseidon Pavilion. Suppressing Xiaotao's evil fire has never been a problem! The only problem is that it is difficult to eradicate. Don't mention such things as inviting outsiders in the future! You go."
"Yes."
Du Weilun retreated tremblingly. Yan Shaozhe's gaze fell back on the list of ice-attributed martial spirit geniuses in his hand and he exhaled.
"What a pit. Xiao Changfeng, the genius Ice Phoenix Soul Master of Xingluo Royal Academy, has disappeared for decades. If he could have been admitted to the academy, we wouldn't have such a headache today..."
"He is about sixty years old now. If he were in Shrek, he might have a chance to become a Super Douluo. It would be easy for Xiaotao to help him. What a pity..."
...
Two and a half years later.
Xu Tianxi, who was over 1.7 meters tall, with broad shoulders and a broad back, was dressed in a tight suit and a mask.
He followed Xiao Changfeng to the dock and went out to sea by boat. The boat was still driven by Yue Lao. Two Soul Douluos accompanied him. They were all absolutely loyal people managed by Xiao Changfeng and did not know Xu Tianxi's true identity.
On the deck, Xiao Changfeng and Xu Tianxi stood facing the wind, laughing and chatting, and the sea breeze brushed across their cheeks, which was particularly refreshing.
"Tianxi, your cultivation speed is really fast, much faster than I was back then." Xiao Changfeng glanced at Xu Tianxi sideways, with a gratified smile on his face.
Three months ago, Xu Tianxi broke through to level 30, with a solid and deep foundation. He was going to hunt soul rings early, but who would have thought that Xu Tianxi would fall into deep meditation after sparring with him using the "divine beast celestial phenomena" fighting skills, which really stimulated him.
Fortunately, he was not bad either. He practiced in seclusion for three months and unexpectedly entered deep meditation for the first time. Although it only lasted for a month, it was equivalent to the insights of several years of hard practice.
The more so, the more envious he was. He even felt that his practice speed in the past two years had increased a lot under the stimulation of Xu Tianxi. This little nephew gave him too many surprises.
Xu Tianxi waved his hand nonchalantly and smiled at Xiao Changfeng, "My current speed is not worth mentioning. There are still big troubles waiting for me later."
"Haha, no matter how big the trouble is, it will be a matter of the future. You come to deep meditation every two years. This is a great opportunity that other soul masters are envious of."
Xiao Changfeng smiled casually, lowered his eyes to look at the nearby sea surface, and asked with concern:
"Have you thought about hunting deep-sea demon whales for the third soul ring? I remember that although those guys also have spiritual attributes, they are not too powerful."
"I have thought about it. There is no race stronger than them in the sea area near the coast. Since we are hunting soul rings, why not choose the most powerful one?"
Xu Tianxi opened his arms to welcome the sea breeze and responded with an intoxicated look.
Except for the strange Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, the soul beast of the Douluo Continent is the deep-sea demon whale king with the highest age, which is infinitely close to a million years. It can survive nine heavenly tribulations, which is enough to show that the racial talent of the deep-sea demon whale clan is extremely powerful.
"Well, we have prepared bait to attract deep-sea demon whales. As long as we enter the demon whale area, we can start."
Xiao Changfeng took out several vials of soul beast essence and blood, and he was confident.
Xu Tianxi glanced at them and said in surprise: "Master, you know my current physical strength. You prepared so much essence and blood of evil demon killer whales and demon soul great white sharks. Will it attract a ten thousand year demon whale? I can't absorb it."
Although he had taken a lot of supplements, his physical development was still far from that of an adult. Absorbing a ten thousand year soul ring was just for his own stimulation, let alone the ten thousand year soul ring of a deep-sea demon whale.
"Don't worry, I know my limits. You have an extremely high physical quality, so I have to find you a demon whale that is at least 5,000 years old to not let you down. There are also differences in the quality of deep-sea demon whales. You are a spiritual master, so naturally you have to find one with the strongest spiritual power possible."
Xiao Changfeng smiled and put the small bottle away, then took out a letter tube from his arms and said, "This is the letter our people got after encountering a 90,000-year-old Tongtian Baxia at sea a few days ago. The Baxia specifically asked for it by name."
"For me? That turtle brother can actually write?"
