Chapter 70: Those Not of Our Kind Are Sure to Have Different Hearts!

"The butterfly's wings have spread..."

After seeing the snake-shaped skeleton, Kong carefully examined it and said with a smile.

This comb-crested phoenix-tailed snake was the source of Oscar's third soul ring. It should have been severely injured by Granny She Po and ultimately killed by Meng Yiran.

This comb-crested phoenix-tailed snake was originally their prey. In the original work, Zhao Wuji only engaged in a 'civil' contest because Dragon Duke was not present.

"But a butterfly, its wings?"

Dugu Yan looked at Kong with confusion, then glanced around. Besides the trees and the snake skeleton, there were no butterflies.

Previously, Kong was not sure if this skeleton was that of the comb-crested phoenix-tailed snake. When Tang San mentioned the wound on the snake's belly caused by a sharp weapon, there was an 80% chance it was the comb-crested phoenix-tailed snake!

"Oscar, what do you think about your third soul ring?"

Flander looked around cautiously, guarding against potential dangers, and asked Oscar.

Oscar was Shao Xin's direct disciple. With Shao Xin, a previous food-type spirit master, as a precedent, he would certainly give his disciple some advice before acquiring a soul ring. Flander didn't need to worry.

Hearing this, Oscar's eyes lit up. He had been waiting for this question for a long time.

Flander hadn't spoken up, so as a student, he didn't dare to speak recklessly. He had no combat power as a food-type spirit master, so he didn't dare to have an opinion on what kind of soul beast to hunt.

"Dean, my first two soul rings correspond to recovery and detoxification. My teacher said that if I could obtain an attribute amplification or berserk enhancement effect for my third soul ring, it would be very beneficial."

Oscar's face turned serious, with a hint of flattery in his tone. He didn't state his own opinion but cited Shao Xin instead.

Although berserk enhancement has side effects, an all-attribute boost, even if only 30% or 20%, is very desirable!

Single-attribute amplification, similar to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, one soul ring, one type of amplification.

Oscar already had recovery (partial healing effect) and detoxification. Gaining an amplification soul skill wouldn't be a problem.

Flander nodded, having no objections to Shao Xin's suggestion. With the soul ring effect direction set, acquiring the soul ring would be easier.

"Attribute amplification? Berserk?"

Tang San thought for a moment, then said, "There are many soul beasts with single-attribute amplification, but berserk soul skills are different."

"Violent gorillas, earth bulls, bloodthirsty demon wolves, absorbing the soul rings of these beasts could grant berserk soul skills."

"Tang San, you should have just graduated from the junior soul master academy, right? How do you know all this?"

Dai Mubai frowned and asked in confusion.

Tang San was only twelve years old and hadn't attended an intermediate soul master academy. How did he know this knowledge?

Flander waved his hand, proudly saying, "Tang San is a disciple of a brother of mine. That brother may lack other skills, but he excels in spirit and soul beast research. It's not an exaggeration to call him a master of spirit research."

Tang San was stunned. He didn't know Flander and his teacher had such a relationship.

When he heard Flander say his teacher had no other skills, Tang San was furious. His teacher had no skills?

Just by seeing a spirit, he could determine it was a twin spirit. Such a person is called unskilled?

Fortunately, Flander's later words pleased Tang San. Tang San nodded in satisfaction, thinking Flander had some insight, recognizing his teacher as a master of spirit and soul beast research!

"Uh..."

Dai Mubai didn't expect Tang San and Flander to have such a relationship!

No wonder Tang San and Xiao Wu came to Shrek Academy. Even knowing Shrek wasn't great, they didn't leave.

Dai Mubai misunderstood. Tang San didn't know about the relationship between Flander and his teacher before.

"Since we have a direction, let's start looking for soul beasts."

Flander didn't dwell on the issue. After this soul hunt, his good friend Yu Xiaogang might have already arrived at Shrek Academy.

Coincidentally, he had many questions he wanted to ask his good friend!

Flander glanced nonchalantly at Kong in the distance, thinking to himself.

"Um, Dean Flander, I..."

Tang San scratched his head somewhat "embarrassedly" at this point. It was a pity that his teacher, Ma Hongjun, and Zhao Wuji weren't here.

"Tang San, what's the matter?"

"Dean, after the battle with the Soul King yesterday, I broke through to level thirty. I also need a soul ring to advance."

Tang San's lips curved slightly upward, showing a bit of pride. A twelve-year-old quasi-Soul Ancestor, much stronger than someone like Oscar, who only broke through to level thirty at fourteen!

Flander was stunned, and so were Dai Mubai and Oscar. You broke through to level thirty, fine, but why mention the battle with the Soul King?

Already feeling down because of the impending separation, Xiao Wu's mood worsened upon hearing Flander and the others discuss hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings.

"Do we really have to hunt soul beasts?"

Xiao Wu said, feeling somewhat downcast.

"Xiao Wu, isn't it natural for soul masters to hunt soul beasts?"

Tang San responded without thinking. After a pause, he continued, "Besides, how many people have soul beasts killed? How many beast tides have they launched? Soul masters hunting soul beasts is just revenge."

"Those not of our kind are sure to have different hearts!"

Even Tang Hao, hidden in the shadows, couldn't help but cover his forehead upon hearing this. The reasoning was sound, but standing before you is a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast in human form!

Saying this, the favorability gained previously would drop by at least half!

"That's right, those not of our kind are sure to have different hearts! How many soldiers of our Star Luo Empire have sacrificed to resist the beast tides? How many fell in those soul beast riots? Xiao Wu, why would you have such thoughts? Pity soul beasts? Those soldiers' bodies aren't even cold! If we don't hunt soul beasts, how will we soul masters break through? How will we protect our people?"

Dai Mubai spoke up, noticing the strange looks from Tang San and Oscar, and quickly added, "Ahem, Oscar, you know I'm from the Star Luo Empire. I'm just worried about the soldiers resisting the soul beasts!"

"Wait, Boss Dai, since when did you have such awareness?"

Oscar scratched his head in confusion.

In his eyes, Dai Mubai was a playboy. How could he have such awareness? It must be a joke!

Dai Mubai's eye twitched. Could he say those were his father's words? He had just borrowed them a bit.

Xiao Wu was stunned. Not only did Tang San think this way, but so did the others?
