Chapter 553: Body Sect Under Attack (Seeking Subscriptions)_1

As Xuan Zi slowly descended onto the South City Wall, his slightly weakened appearance drew the members of the Sea God Pavilion closer...

It was completely different from when he had spoken with Di Tian before, his aura had weakened a lot!

Yan Shaozhe hurriedly supported Xuan Zi, concern written all over his face, "Elder Xuan, are you alright?"

Xian Lin'er frowned, puzzled, "Elder Xuan has broken through to a level-99 Ultimate Douluo; his body should be in better condition. How did he become like this?"

Only Elder Song's pupils contracted sharply, disbelieving, "Could it be... Elder Xuan, did you force your breakthrough?"

Fan Yu said gravely, "Forcing a breakthrough? Elder Xuan, you didn't really..."

Xuan Zi waved his hand and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm fine, just a bit too hasty..."

He had realized during the last Continental Young Soul Master Elite Competition while exterminating the Holy Spirit Cult that he could not remain at the level of a level-98 Hyper Douluo!

Otherwise, facing a level-99 Ultimate Douluo, he basically had no chance of winning!

For instance, if he hadn't forced his way through to level-99 today, he wouldn't even have had the qualifications to speak to Di Tian as an equal!

Meanwhile, Qian Yu looked at Xuan Zi with a faint gaze, "Elder Xuan, you must have accelerated your breakthrough after sensing Di Tian's arrival, luckily you managed to hold on just now."

Xuan Zi said in astonishment, "You even guessed this, indeed there's no hiding it from you!"

Wasn't it said that this youngster's soul power rank has dropped? Yet his perception is still so terrifying...

At that moment, the inner court students, who had regained their senses, showed excitement on their faces, "Does this mean the Beast Tide is over?"

"Of course! Even the strongest being in the Aquipeia Forest, Di Tian, chose to retreat upon facing Elder Xuan. How could the other soul beasts possibly continue to charge?"

"We held off the Beast Tide! Hooray!!"

"I never expected to see the Aquipeia Forest's Di Tian today; that scared the life out of me just now!"

"Long live Shrek Academy! Long live Shrek Academy!"

Intense voices arose over the entire South City Wall...

Meanwhile, Shi Xing, who was still lying on the ground, rubbed his head and slowly stood up...

He looked around at the cheering students and defense army in a daze, murmuring, "The Beast Tide is over just like that? I only passed out for a short while, didn't I?"

A Soul Master beside him explained, "Report, just now the strongest being in the Aquipeia Forest, Di Tian, appeared before the South City Wall. Luckily, Elder Xuan arrived in time to stop Di Tian, which is why the Beast Tide retreated."

A mixture of joy and sorrow spread across Shi Xing's face, as he lamented, "So that's how it is!"

He suddenly felt somewhat superfluous...

He had thought he could use his leadership ability to lead the Shrek City Defense Army to withstand the Beast Tide, only to wake up and find it over...

At that moment, Elder Xuan's clouded eyes looked at everyone seriously, "Alright! Now all inner court students and the Shrek City Defense Army follow orders, and start retrieving the soul tools that have been set up!"

"Yes!"

After his words fell, the Shrek Academy inner court students and defense army began to deal with the dense soul tools on the South City Wall...

Although these soul tools were not of a high grade and were easy to dismantle, the difficulty lay in the quantity...

Soul tools used by tens of thousands, it was obvious that it would not be a short task to dismantle them...

...

Finally, after a few hours, the South City Wall was left empty save for the standing inner court disciples and the defense army Soul Masters...

At that time, Shi Xing, as the de facto leader of the Shrek City Defense Army, stepped up beside Qian Yu...

He then respectfully handed over a storage soul tool to Qian Yu, "Elder Qian Yu, this is your storage soul tool, all the borrowed soul tools are inside."

Only now did he truly recognize the young Elder of the Sea God Pavilion. Although she was young, she was capable of shouldering the heavy responsibilities of a Sea God Pavilion Elder from every aspect!

Elder Qian Yu's faint golden pupils showed a hint of surprise as he reached out to take the storage soul tool, saying casually, "Hmm! Thanks."

With that, he turned to walk towards Tang Wutong and the others…

Seeing that Elder Qian Yu had no intention of checking the contents, Shi Xing couldn't help but ask, "Elder Qian Yu, you… don't want to count them?"

Qian Yu glanced at him and said indifferently, "They're just some toys, if they're gone, just make more."

Shi Xing's entire face froze…

He had thought that the high-grade soul guidance devices contained within, if fully deployed, could already destroy any empire, so it would be best to return them to their rightful owner!

But who would have thought!

In front of Elder Qian Yu!

They were merely toys…

Toys!

In his heart, he almost wanted to vomit blood…

Watching Qian Yu leaving, he gritted his teeth and muttered, "Damn it, if I had known, I wouldn't have returned them!"

Those were high-grade soul guidance devices, after all. If outfitted by the Shrek City Defense Army, who would dare attack Shrek City in the future?

As Qian Yu joined Tang Wutong and the others, Xu Sanshi curiously asked, "Qian Yu, what did that Shi Xing want with you? He looked like he was about to spit blood."

Qian Yu tossed the soul guide in his palm and said calmly, "Nothing important, just returning the soul guidance devices we borrowed from them."

Bei Bei sighed, "Luckily, the Beast Tide stopped in time, otherwise, once the city defense army and the inner court students ran out of Soul Power, it wouldn't have been so simple!"

Tang Ya chimed in, "Yeah! Di Tian from the Aquipeia Forest felt even more terrifying to me than Elder Mu."

Ma Xiaotao spoke out, "Now that this Beast Tide is over, there's no need to dwell on it further. Let's not forget that the Tang Sect Disciples still have classes that aren't finished!"

At these words, the Tang Sect crowd realized and said, "Right!"

Afterward, the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion and the Shrek students from the east, south, west, and north city walls all gathered and returned to Shrek Academy…

...

Meanwhile, within the Body Sect!

Two figures clad in black robes were looking with cold eyes at the Sect Master of the Body Sect, Poison Immortal!

It was Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao!

They had originally planned to infiltrate Shrek Academy during the Beast Tide, but considering the presence of the enigmatic Qian Yu, they decisively switched their target to the severely weakened Body Sect!

Poison Immortal looked at Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao with angry eyes and shouted coldly, "Ye Xishui! Long Xiaoyao! I can't believe you two dared to barge into my Body Sect, are you looking for death?"

Ye Xishui replied indifferently, "Looking for death? I don't think so, with just you as a level-98 Hyper Douluo?"

Long Xiaoyao did not speak, his muddy eyes filled with disdain…

Poison Immortal's expression turned chilling as he responded, "Good! Very good! Do you really think my strength has remained at level 98?"

The next moment, his aura surged, surpassing level 98 and reaching level-99 Ultimate Douluo!

He spoke coldly, "Now I too, am an Ultimate Douluo! You can't just manipulate me at will!!"

Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao's eyes sharpened, and then they both burst forth with terrifying auras, launching an attack directly at Poison Immortal…

Seeing the two attackers, Poison Immortal's face showed no fear as he declared, "Just what I want! Let me show you what a true self martial soul is!!"
