"The flowers are as red as those that break one's heart."
As Ye Nanxiao pondered the relationship between the Acacia Heartbreak Red flower and the Nine-Colored Goddess disguised as the Flower Goddess, he strolled leisurely into the Tang Sect's main hall.
With his left foot stepping into the Tang Clan's main hall, Ye Nanxiao slammed on the brakes and retreated out of the gate's vicinity.
Ye Nanxiao retreated at top speed.
A chicken leg bone shot straight toward Ye Nanxiao's smooth forehead like an intercontinental missile.
"Sevenfold Floating Shield!"
Ye Nanxiao quickly conjured seven ice shields engraved with dazzling patterns and placed them in front of him.
He could see the layer of soul power attached to the chicken leg bone; if it had hit him, he would have been able to enjoy a baby-like sleep.
"Thump!"
The chicken leg bone pierced through four of the floating shields before stopping and embedding itself in the fifth floating shield.
"I haven't left the house lately, and I haven't gone to rob Old Qian either. What have I done to offend you, sir?" Ye Nanxiao put down the floating shield and looked at Elder Xuan in front of him with a dark expression.
Elder Xuan pulled out another chicken leg bone from his pocket and said to Ye Nanxiao, "A surprise test to see if your vigilance has declined."
"Wasn't it me who was killing evil soul masters with you in the Mingdou Mountains not long ago? How many days has it been? What are you talking about, retreating?" Ye Nanxiao said helplessly.
Almost everyone was present in the Tang Sect's main hall, except for Xu Sanshi and Huo Yuhao.
"Nanxiao, didn't that bastard go fishing with you? Where is he?" Beibei asked.
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao suddenly remembered that his good brother, Comrade Xu Jianren, was still enjoying a baby-like sleep.
"He's asleep." Ye Nanxiao walked to the seat next to Jiang Nannan and sat down, leaning against her with his head resting on her shoulder.
"Two people, go and look for it," Beibei said to the inner hall disciple standing at the door.
The inner disciples were very efficient; soon, the fast-sleeping Xu Sanshi was carried to the main hall by two men.
Beibei stepped forward, pinched Xu Sanshi's nose to stop the snoring, and then electric arcs crackled around her body.
Two inner hall disciples stood dutifully at the door, looking ahead and waiting for the shift to be handed over, when suddenly they heard a shrill scream coming from the hall behind them.
"Wasn't I fishing? Where are my fish?"
Xu Sanshi opened his mouth and exhaled a large puff of black smoke. He stood up, staring at an afro. The occasional arcs of electricity on his face made his facial muscles twitch, which, combined with his innocent and confused little eyes, created a strange sense of humor.
"Forget your fish! Hurry up and finish! We have important business to attend to!" Beibei slapped Xu Sanshi on the head in an annoyed tone.
"Ah, ah, oh, oh." Xu Sanshi then noticed Elder Xuan gnawing on a chicken leg, and quickly ran over to sit down next to Bei Bei, even reaching out to tug at Bei Bei's clothes.
This made Tang Ya, who was sitting on the other side of Bei Bei, twitch at the corner of her eye.
"Alright, everyone except Yuhao is here. So I'll get straight to the point. The next All-Continent Soul Master Tournament is coming soon, and the academy has decided to allocate one spot for you few as one of the teams to participate in the next tournament," Elder Xuan said.
"Is there another team besides us?" Bebe asked.
Elder Xuan nodded slowly and said, "It was actually my idea to let you participate. Last time, it was thanks to you that we were able to turn the tide. This time, you should appear on an even more dazzling stage."
"However, since you have all graduated and established the Tang Sect, you should participate as a team of the Tang Sect. This will be a good opportunity to promote Shrek City and Shrek Academy and recruit more students, hahaha."
Hearing Elder Xuan's hearty laughter, everyone suddenly turned to look at Ye Nanxiao.
Why has the usually carefree and unrestrained Elder Xuan suddenly taken on a business-like demeanor?
No matter how you look at it, it's Ye Nanxiao's problem.
Suddenly feeling valued, Ye Nanxiao rolled his eyes at everyone. How could he possibly corrupt Elder Xuan?
No, Master Xuan was constantly learning throughout his life. It just so happens that I, the fox, have made some achievements in a certain area. It's right to learn from outstanding people, isn't it?
"Who will be the captain of Shrek Academy's team? It can't be Qiu'er, can it?"
"Oh, you've even learned to answer first, buddy. Not bad, it's Qiu'er." Elder Xuan nodded with a smile.
"Now, none of the younger generation in the academy can beat Qiu'er. If she doesn't become captain, who will? Do you think Xiao Tao became captain back then?"
Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to remember something and continued to focus their attention on Ye Nanxiao.
Judging a captain based on their abilities is perfectly normal.
So, who will be the captain of the Tang Clan team?
What about the strongest fox?
All eyes remained fixed on Ye Nanxiao.
Feeling the intense gaze, Ye Nanxiao slid back and hid behind Jiang Nannan, not showing his face.
"Nanxiao, really not going to take the job?" Seeing Ye Nanxiao's reaction, Beibei knew that the captaincy would definitely not be given to Ye Nanxiao.
"I'm busy, I can't go," Ye Nanxiao said, refusing.
"You can go or not, it's up to you. Jiang Nannan can go." Old Master Xuan looked like he had expected this.
"Old drunkard!" Ye Nanxiao stared blankly. He realized that Jiang Nannan seemed to be the only agility-type Soul Master in the Tang Sect, not counting Wang Dong'er.
Elder Xuan took out a round ball from his pocket and recorded Ye Nanxiao's current appearance of biting his nails in a fit of rage.
"Haha, you little rascal, I was just kidding. Go if you want, or don't. Anyway, we have enough people." Xuan Lai said cheerfully.
Seeing Elder Xuan's childlike demeanor, everyone couldn't help but smile.
Tang Ya stepped in and said, "Alright, Nanxiao, we all know you have a lot of things to do. I'll take good care of Nannan for you, don't worry. Besides, the competition is being held in Mingdu, isn't that your territory? You'll have no problem arranging everything perfectly for us, right?"
"I want the full range of services!" Xu Sanshi immediately raised his hand and said.
Beibei slapped Xu Sanshi on the head, laughing and scolding, "Do you know that the 'one-stop service' Nanxiao mentioned is actually sending people to their deaths?"
"What???"
Jiang Nannan rubbed Ye Nanxiao's large hand and said, "It's okay, don't listen to Xiaoya's nonsense. I'm very strong now, even Beibei might not be able to beat me!"
"Don't forget, you didn't get the better of me that day!"
Jiang Nannan raised her small, fair fist and waved it a few times with a smile.
Under the careful training of Cai Meier and Ye Nanxiao, Jiang Nannan's combat power is now completely different from before. She has extremely high mobility and focused gravity soul skills. Ordinary power-attack type soul masters are no longer a threat to her, and some soul masters with exceptionally powerful martial souls also find it difficult to gain an advantage over her.
Ye Nanxiao turned around and grabbed Jiang Nannan's small hand, playing with it in his palm. He was well aware of Jiang Nannan's strength; as long as she didn't face a Soul Master with the ability to control the field and use wide-range Soul Skills, she wouldn't have any problems.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Alright, no need to say anything more, Captain Beibei will be your guide." Ye Nanxiao slapped his thigh and made his decision.
Beibei and the others quickly exchanged a glance with Elder Xuan.
"See? Nanxiao really went!"
"That's right, wherever Nan Nan is, Nan Xiao will be there! It's a pity I can't be with Nan Nan tonight anymore, this sect leader feels regretful!"
"It's troublesome if this rascal is a hopeless romantic."
"Don't pretend I'm not here! Xiaoya, I lock the door at night, so don't come in!"
After finalizing the Tang Sect's roster, Elder Xuan pulled Ye Nanxiao aside and said, "I need to go back and lead this year's Shrek Academy team. You should focus on your cultivation these days, understand? Don't wander off!"
"I'm the most obedient Elder Xuan, and I would never do anything against the leader's instructions!" Ye Nanxiao said with one hand.
Old Master Xuan rolled his eyes at Ye Nanxiao. Apart from the guarantees Ye Nanxiao made to Jiang Nannan and Ma Xiaotao, he didn't believe a word of what Ye Nanxiao said about anything else.
"In short, I have to get to work and don't have time to be your bodyguard. Take it easy, understand?"
Ye Nanxiao nodded hurriedly. Although it was a pity that he no longer had Elder Xuan, a super fighter, his own escape skills were not to be underestimated.
Huh? Wait a minute?
Ye Nanxiao cautiously raised his head and met Xuan Lao's gaze. The latter had an expression on his face that said, "You little rascal, you're definitely not honest."
"Haha, Elder Xuan, really! I've been staying right here at the Tang Sect, not running around at all. Why did you have to be so careful? Hahaha..."
Under Elder Xuan's sharp gaze, Ye Fox suddenly felt guilty.
"Tell me, what are you planning to do now?" Elder Xuan asked.
"Nothing major has happened recently, but I might have to go to the far north in a while, as my cultivation level has reached a certain point," Ye Nanxiao said.
If it weren't for the invasion of evil soul masters in Xingluo City, he would probably be searching for Old Wolf in the far north by now.
"Oh, to get a spirit ring? Go back to the academy and find someone to go with you?" There was still a hint of worry in Elder Xuan's eyes.
Some shook their heads slightly and said, "The academy's elders are all very busy, so don't worry. I've already set up my henchmen along the way. I'll run away the moment there's any trouble!" Ye Nanxiao said, straightening his back.
These unambitious words were now extremely pleasing to Elder Xuan's ears. He was afraid that Ye Nanxiao would run away and be captured and made into a human offering.
After giving Ye Nanxiao a scolding, Elder Xuan was temporarily satisfied and slipped back to work at Shrek Academy.
The Tang Clan members immediately became excited and took out the information on the major sects of the three great empires, placing it directly on the carpet to begin studying it.
"I, the sect leader, will also fight! This battle must be fought spectacularly! Let's show the strength of the Tang Sect!" Tang Ya said excitedly.
After her martial soul evolved, she worked hard day and night to catch up quickly. Now that a good opportunity to prove herself was presented to her, she naturally wanted to try out her Blue Silver Grass, which had transformed into a vine whip.
"Beibei, can I bring the goalkeeper cannon?"
"Cai Tou, are you trying to dismantle the tournament arena?"
Amidst the commotion, Ye Nanxiao took the pair of small knives from his waist and placed them in Jiang Nannan's hands.
"Our latest achievement, the Peerless Offensive Flying Blade, requires a blood oath to become its master," Ye Nanxiao said.
A glint flashed in Jiang Nannan's eyes, and she bit her index finger, letting a few drops of blood drip onto it.
The flying blade immediately emitted a crisp whistling sound, returned to its original size, and continued to swim around Jiang Nannan.
