Upon seeing President Yan leading the outer court freshmen away, the soul beasts howled towards the sky a few times before quickly dispersing...
From the sky, President Yan looked down at the soul beasts below with a solemn expression, "What exactly happened? Why did these soul beasts suddenly attack us in groups...?"
Soul beasts, unlike Soul Masters, do not tend to gather together; they prefer to fight each other...
Yet today, they appeared all at once, which brought a sense of worry to the bottom of his heart...
Covered by a protective barrier and flying up in the sky, the outer court freshmen all breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing they had shaken off the soul beasts...
One of the freshmen patted their chest, "That scared me to death. I thought we were going to be killed by these soul beasts today! But thankfully, President Yan is with us!"
Another new student angrily said, "Hmph! If it weren't for the fact that President Yan was alone in protecting us and hence couldn't act freely, none of those soul beasts would have left alive!"
"I really hope Elder Qian Yu and the others can come back soon!"
"Speaking of which, President Yan, where are we heading now? Aren't we waiting for Elder Qian Yu and the others?"
Hearing this, President Yan nodded and explained, "Yes! We'll return to Shrek Academy for now. The appearance of the soul beasts in groups today is probably something strange. As for Elder Qian Yu and the others, they will definitely be fine. We'll just wait for them at the academy..."
However, the thoughts in President Yan's heart were exactly the opposite of the words he had spoken...
He had subconsciously assumed that Elder Qian Yu and the others had run into trouble and could not possibly come back alive...
...
Hiding in the corner and observing, Ma Xiaotao and Tang Wutong's attention was suddenly captured by a woman wearing armor who looked heroic...
She walked towards a palace ahead without changing her facial expression...
Tang Wutong's pinkish-purple eyes flickered with a bright light as she thought, "Is this woman the one Qian Yu mentioned as Juzi? The aura she exudes, as majestic as an emperor, actually seems to overtake my own!"
No wonder she could attract Qian Yu's interest; she indeed has something special about her!
Ma Xiaotao also blinked her beautiful eyes, pondering something...
After a while, when Juzi entered the palace, Ma Xiaotao and Tang Wutong stood up...
With a serious face, Ma Xiaotao analyzed, "Her soul power fluctuation is at the level of a Soul emperor, but it's very weak, which means she must be a support-class Soul Master! Now is a good time to make our move!"
Just by killing this woman, they would be able to complete the deep adventure task!
Of course, the least stressful thing for them was that everything in the deep adventure was fabricated!
Tang Wutong's eyes hardened, and she lightly pressed the ring on her wrist, as a Class 8 Offensive Soul Guidance Device appeared in her hand...
She calmly said, "Sister Xiao Tao, use the soul tool for the assassination. In case there's an ambush, we can quickly retreat!"
If Juzi had already set up an ambush inside, they could very well be trapped like turtles in a jar, unable to even run away!
After pondering for a while, Ma Xiaotao nodded in agreement with Tang Wutong's suggestion, "Yes! Using a soul tool is much safer indeed!"
In the deep adventure, the death of those people was just an illusion, but if they died, it would cost them their lives! They had to be more cautious...
Without further discussion, Tang Wutong decisively aimed the mouth of the Class 8 Offensive Soul Guidance Device at the palace in front of her...
She then injected light blue soul power into it, which in an instant drained nearly half of Tang Wutong's soul power!
Tang Wutong pressed the button fiercely, and countless halos emanated from the mouth of the cannon; shortly thereafter, a chilling laser cannon shell emerged...
With a "bang," a terrifying laser cannon shell with a diameter of about four to five meters was instantly fired towards the direction of the
...
In the palace, the evil Soul Master said with a taut expression, "Fleet Admiral, those two women used an attack from at least a Level Seven Soul Tool!"
Even with his strength, it was hard to withstand!
Hearing this, Juzi glanced at the evil Soul Master. Not a hint of surprise showed on her beautiful face; everything seemed to be within her grasp...
Just then, the Laser Cannon Shell fired from the Eighth-grade Spirit Guidance Device struck the back of the palace, provoking a strange ripple that was perfectly swallowed up...
Tang Wutong, witnessing the cannon shell being absorbed by the palace, exclaimed, "What? It was blocked?"
Ma Xiaotao, next to her, seemed to realize something. Her pupils shrank and she said, "No, this palace itself is a soul tool, we've fallen into a trap, run!"
Having said that, she hurriedly released her Martial Soul in an attempt to escape...
However, a hoarse voice came from behind them...
"Thinking of escaping? It's already too late!"
Unbeknownst to them, a figure dressed in black robes, an evil Soul Master, had appeared behind Tang Wutong and Ma Xiaotao...
Tang Wutong frowned and demanded, "When did you appear!"
Ma Xiaotao spoke with certainty, "An evil Soul Master! And at least at the Title Douluo level!"
The evil Soul Master, without saying much, revealed a sinister smile...
In an instant, his body swelled up, and then with a "bang!", he exploded...
Just as Tang Wutong and Ma Xiaotao looked on puzzled at this scene, countless afterimages surged out from his body, wrapping around the unsuspecting Ma Xiaotao and Tang Wutong in a flash...
The next second, the shadows began to compress until they disappeared without a trace...
...
When they came to their senses again, Tang Wutong and Ma Xiaotao found themselves seated in chairs inside the palace, and their Soul Power had been completely suppressed!...
After glancing ahead, both felt a hint of wariness rising in their hearts...
Because the two figures sitting in front of them were none other than Juzi and the evil Soul Master who had just attacked!
Juzi rose unhurriedly and then walked over to a table nearby...
Under the watchful eyes of Tang Wutong and Ma Xiaotao, she skilfully brewed a pot of tea...
She then elegantly placed two cups of tea on the table in front of them...
Afterward, she sat back down, smiling at them, and began, "I wonder, what brings students of Shrek Academy to break into the imperial palace of the Sun-Moon Empire?"
A cold light flickered in Ma Xiaotao's eyes, "I never expected you to be the Fleet Admiral of the Sun-Moon Empire, the woman who followed the Emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire!"
Deep inside, she thought with a start, "This woman... is inscrutable!"
She feared that she and Wutong's every move were under her control...
Tang Wutong's gaze sharpened slightly as she said with a faint smile, "Since you are the Fleet Admiral of the Sun-Moon Empire, Juzi, then you must know Qian Yu, right? No, it should be said that your relationship is quite close!"
Juzi's Beautiful Eyes narrowed as she calmly explained, "Qian Yu? My relationship with him is naturally close; otherwise, he wouldn't have made a Tenth-grade Spirit Guidance Device for me!"
Who exactly was this woman? How did she know about her and Qian Yu's connection!
