155 Shrek Friendship Mean Nothing to Me

As soon as the first broadcast sounded, Di Tian and Bi Ji appeared behind An Ping and Gu Yuena. They saw the two of them standing still and ignored them. There were hardly any soul beasts that could pose a threat to them.

By the time the second broadcast came, they could see ripples in the distance, moving fast towards the ship. It looked like a swarm of sea soul beasts was heading their way.

When the third broadcast played, Cai Yue'er emerged from the water with Tang Wulin and landed on the deck. She stared at the approaching soul beasts with a grave expression. She could sense that some of them were very powerful.

Anping used his life detection technique and found out that there were at least a thousand of them. He turned to Gu Yuena and asked curiously, "Do these soul beasts worship the Sea God? Or do they follow you, the co-master of the soul beasts?"

Gu Yuena shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know if they believe in the Sea God or not, but they certainly don't believe in me. Maybe they have never heard of me, the co-master of the soul beasts, and I don't know why these sea soul beasts are attacking human ships at this time."

In this era, sea soul beasts were not as endangered as land soul beasts, but their numbers had dwindled significantly compared to the past. It was rare to see sea soul beasts outside the deep sea areas.

Anping looked at Cai Yue'er and Tang Wulin and said, "Do you see those two over there? I think the soul beast attack may have something to do with Shrek Academy."

Gu Yuena followed his gaze and saw Cai Yue'er carrying Tang Wulin to the deck. She wondered, "Shrek Academy advocates peaceful coexistence with soul beasts. How could they have anything to do with this? Judging from their aura, these soul beasts seem to be seeking revenge."

Anping explained, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be related to Tang Wulin and the others. Do you remember the leader of the Body Sect, Mu Ye? Based on their actions during this period, I think My Ye gave them the cultivation method of the Body Sect."

"As far as I know, the Body Sect's cultivation method is to break through between life and death. Practicing this way puts a huge strain on the body. The sea soul beast meat they have been eating should be from their hunting."

"And advocating doesn't mean treating soul beasts like humans. You should know that the Body Sect's cultivation method has the potential to let people awaken their martial souls for the second time. Besides, we have kidnapped two genius students from them."

He stopped talking when he saw Cai Yue'er and Tang Wulin walking towards them. He thought for a moment and said, "They must be here to ask for our help. Let me think about what to do."

He didn't want to get involved in the sea soul beast attack, which was clearly caused by Shrek Academy. After all, he had Di Tian and Bi Ji with him, and Xiong and Zi Ji were on another ship nearby. Even if a battle broke out, he and Gu Yuena would be safe.

Cai Yue'er and Tang Wulin reached them in a few seconds. Cai Yue'er said, "For the sake of the two Empire' missions, I wonder if we can ask you to help us repel these soul beasts."

She had gone straight to Di Tian because she couldn't gauge his strength at all. And Di Tian had destroyed Mu Ye's cultivation with one palm, not giving him a chance to summon his battle armor.

Mu Ye was the leader of a sect and a god-level mecha master. He didn't use mechas, but he was far from weak. He wouldn't be defeated by a random blow from anyone.

Di Tian said calmly, "Our mission is to protect the young lady and the young master. We are not responsible for anyone else."

Tang Wulin frowned when he heard Di Tian's words. "Gu Yuena, this is a critical moment for the two Empires' missions. Can't you put the bigger picture first? If something happens to the ship, it won't do you any good either, right?"

Gu Yuena glanced at Tang Wulin and said, "If I'm not mistaken, these soul beasts are after you. You just have to hand over yourselves and Shrek Academy, and they will leave."

Gu Yuena's words made Cai Yue'er frown. "I don't know why you would say that. We at Shrek Academy have no deep hatred with the sea soul beasts. If you don't want to help, just say so."

Anping gently squeezed Gu Yuena's hand and told her to be quiet. He said, "No matter who these soul beasts are targeting, what are you willing to pay if we help you fend them off?"

Before Cai Yue'er and Tang Wulin could answer, Anping added, "Don't try to use any moral arguments to pressure me. They have no effect on me. You should have thought of this day when you hunted soul beasts for your practice."

Cai Yue'er knew why these soul beasts were here. She had killed some of them to restore Tang Wulin's bloodline power and speed up the training of the students. She wouldn't have done that before, but Anping and Gu Yuena had made her feel threatened. They came from Sun Moon Academy, after all.

She wasn't worried about their generation. She was worried about the future, when Anping and Gu Yuena grew up. If no one from Shrek Academy could surpass them, they might challenge Shrek's status as the number one academy on the continent.

She saw that Anping was being uncooperative and thought for a moment. She said, "If you help us through this crisis, you will earn Shrek Academy's friendship. And I can also offer you a chance to study at Shrek for a while. I can't promise anything else, but I can assure you that Shrek Academy's teachings on battle armor are the best on the continent."

She said this to hint that she knew Anping and Gu Yuena hadn't built their battle armor. But she didn't expect them to show no interest.

Anping shook his head slightly and said, "First, Shrek Academy's friendship means nothing to us. Second, do you really think we would choose Sun Moon Academy if we wanted to study at Shrek?"

Cai Yue'er frowned and didn't know what to say. But Tang Wulin spoke up first. "Then what do you want?"

Tang Wulin felt that nothing good ever came from dealing with Anping and Gu Yuena. His tone was clearly hostile.

Anping ignored Tang Wulin and looked at Cai Yue'er. He said, "Silver Moon Douluo, you better make up your mind quickly. After all, you are the ones who caused this trouble. If a battle breaks out, your academy will have to join the fight."
