Chapter 223 Come out, Cain! (with photos) (Ch 223)

“Qiu’er, take a look at this soul guide device.”
Mingde Hall, inside a special training room.
On the wide field, Xu Cheng raised his chin and motioned Wang Qiuer to try out the newly developed “armor”.
“The material of this armor is definitely up to the standard of a ninth-level soul guide, including some metal materials, which are absolutely top-notch in hardness, but its core formation is only sixth-level. In the future, every time you reach a higher level, you can ask me to replace the core formation, and the external materials do not need to be replaced.”
“So fast?” Wang Qiuer half-knelt on the ground, excitedly groping at the red-gold, seemingly light set of light armor. It was obviously designed for ladies, not very gorgeous, but with a hint of heroism. The outermost layer was covered with golden scales, but it did not seem cumbersome and heavy after wearing it, but became lighter, allowing the power to be better released.
“You are a golden dragon, mainly a strength-type. The main purpose of this armor is offense and defense. The attack is light and can increase some strength. The defense is a defensive feature, comparable to a seventh-level defensive soul guide. Although it does not have a light curtain shield, the effect is definitely not bad.”
“How about it? Are you satisfied?” Xu Cheng said with a smile.
“Satisfied!” Wang Qiuer jumped up, hugged Xu Cheng’s neck, and kissed him hard on the face.
“Try it on…”
At Xu Cheng’s instigation, the locker room door slowly opened.
There was a hint of excitement on Wang Qiuer’s face, and she appeared beside Xu Cheng in a flash.
(Concept map, the most satisfactory version by comparison, emm…)
“Hiss… why aren’t you wearing any underwear?”
Xu Cheng stared in amazement. Most of the delicate body could be covered in metal in this armor, but a few parts were exposed to the air for the sake of aesthetics, especially the thighs. You should at least wear a combat uniform to cover it up.
“Does it look good?” Wang Qiuer turned around, and gently clenched her fair and slender hand, and the golden dragon spear appeared in her hand.
Xu Cheng could even vaguely see the shadow of a golden dragon lurking behind him.
It looks good, but…
“Hey, don’t worry, I will only let my friends see it. You are my friend, so I will wear my underwear in front of other people.” Wang Qiuer squinted her eyes and smiled like a crescent moon.
Obviously he had “grasped” Xu Cheng’s psychology.
“Friends?” Nana asked doubtfully.
She glanced at Xu Cheng in surprise. The latter was thick-skinned and said righteously without blushing or beating his heart: “Yes, friend, but Qiu’er, you have to remember that not every man is qualified to be your friend, especially the opposite sex. I am a man, and I know best what those guys are like…”
“Yes, I will definitely be on guard against them!” Wang Qiuer nodded seriously.
But the moment Xu Cheng turned his head, a hint of cunning flashed in her beautiful light blue eyes, and then disappeared completely when Xu Cheng looked back again, just like a pure and innocent little lamb.
Nana, who saw this scene, said: “…”
Okay, okay, you all like acting, right?
Forget it, as long as you are happy.
In the sea of ​​spirit.
A certain big white silkworm laughed innocently: “Bingbing, we are good friends too, do you want to go swimming together? Don’t look at me as fat, but I am an excellent swimmer.”
Looking down from above.
The scale of the entire Spirit Sea is already terrifying, and even most Super Douluo would find it difficult to match it.
But you have to know that it only took a few years for the water to expand from a puddle to the vast ocean it is today.
And as the spiritual essence of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm is like an oversized power bank, constantly filling this world, it remains to be seen how far it can go in the future.
At this moment, Tianmeng has transformed into a mini version, lying on his back on the sea of ​​spirit in a cute way, with a parasol over his head, a drink in his mouth, twisting his body with a look of comfort, calling out to Bingdi.
“Hehe, who is your friend?” Bingdi surfaced coldly.
Look up to the sky.
There is a light screen there, projecting the real world.
Of course, this light curtain is open most of the time, and only for a very small part of the time will Xu Cheng deliberately block it.
“This is actually… a lucky beast. I didn’t expect that after I fell asleep for so long, this creature would follow me to the Sun-Moon Empire.”
“Shouldn’t you be focusing on the fact that this auspicious beast has taken the bait?” Tian Meng said with a wicked smile.
“Took the bait?” Bingdi said calmly, “If the first time they met, Xu Cheng exchanging memories with it was considered a form of exploitation, then now… it’s not clear who took the bait. It’s a win-win situation anyway. In the future, having one more auspicious emperor beast on our path to becoming a god is not a bad thing.”
“Of course, the best scenario is to kill it, or perhaps get its spirit ring, or obtain her sacrifice, so that we can plunder its luck power to the greatest extent.”
“Eh, what a cruel woman.” Tian Meng shrank back.
“It’s just a fact. I’m just thinking about it. Ah Cheng won’t do such a thing. He might rather die than let the auspicious beast sacrifice him…” Bingdi sighed.
But perhaps she did not realize that while there was regret in her tone, there was also a hint of relief.
A leader who will do anything to achieve his goal can do what is best for his goal at the right time and can give up everything, but people will never give their heart to him…
“Speaking of which, in the Star Dou Great Forest, besides Emperor Tian, ​​are there any other strong people?” Bingdi asked softly.
“Well, there is one. Earlier, when I was suppressed underground by Di Tian and his men and they used me like a power bank, I could feel that the one who absorbed the most of my power was a being from the underground of the Lake of Life. She absorbed the Lake of Life wantonly, and her strength was unfathomable… In my opinion, she could crush Di Tian and his men with just one hand.”
“So powerful?” Bingdi showed a hint of surprise.
But he chuckled again: “It seems that the guys in the Star Dou Great Forest are just like that. They spent so much effort to get a drop of water of life, but it was just a drop of water for someone else to wash his feet. But they are like sweet dew that they have long missed. Just thinking about their expressions makes me want to laugh.”
“Does our Far North have a grudge against them?” Tian Meng asked curiously.
“I don’t have any grudges. I just simply can’t stand those guys showing off, acting like they are the coolest in the Star Forest…” Bingdi cursed.
“But it seems to be true… Ouch!”
…
“Netherworld Blade!”
“First soul skill, speed increase! Second soul skill, clone! Third soul skill, ghost possession!”
At the tryout field.
Nana’s beautiful eyes were filled with a hint of solemnity, and she revealed all her cards as soon as she came on stage.
Three soul rings of yellow, yellow and purple appeared one after another.
He held a grey dagger in each hand, seemingly floating and ghostly, with a hint of ash particle effects, and along with Nana’s flickering figure, left behind a trail of phantoms, so fast that it was difficult to capture.
Xu Cheng had only one requirement for her: to be fast, accurate, ruthless, and a position-based assassin. After all, in the original novel, she even held a big sword. Can you believe it? She was a ghost spirit, a tailor-made assassin, but she was used as a warrior? Isn’t that a waste of talent?
This dagger is also an adaptive soul guide device, forged by Old Cheng himself, and its power is absolutely unquestionable.
The atmosphere in the venue also became tense.
I have to say, if it were Nana in the original novel, I’m afraid she would not be able to beat Wang Qiuer.
But now, after being trained by Xu Cheng, Nana, who had already stepped into the threshold of Soul King, also held out in his hands for a while. Under the extreme speed, even Wang Qiuer could hardly break it. After all, the whole field was filled with her afterimages, which were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
In addition to the harassment from the assassins, Wang Qiuer also felt quite a headache.
Until he found an opportunity and used his fourth soul skill “Golden Dragon Explosion” (releasing three consecutive explosions centered on himself) when Nana was close to him, which allowed Nana to reveal her true identity from stealth. Then he seized the opportunity to attack her, and Nana raised her hands in surrender without any ability to fight back.
“Stealth is very powerful, but if you can’t kill the enemy with one strike, you’ll lose after being hit back.” Wang Qiuer nodded slightly and gave a fair evaluation.
“Thanks……”
Nana wiped the sweat from her forehead and glanced at Wang Qiuer with a complicated expression.
This girl is just like a strange beast in human skin. It’s not like she hasn’t come into contact with martial spirits with power attributes before, but this golden dragon is simply ridiculously strong!
As expected, it is a top-level martial spirit…
“How does it feel in actual combat?” Xu Cheng asked with a smile.
“She let me go. If it was a life-and-death battle, I wouldn’t last more than a minute.” Nana admitted generously and clasped her fists.
“This set of armor can increase strength by about 10%, and consumes very little soul power, so it does not affect combat. The whole body is extremely light and the weight is almost unnoticeable. The defense is also quite strong, enough to withstand a full-strength attack from a 50,000-year soul beast.” Wang Qiuer said after pondering for a moment.
“Let’s change the comparison unit to the peak Soul Saint, or Soul Douluo…” Xu Cheng smiled.
“It seems that you will have no rivals in the upcoming college competition. It’s a pity that Old Ji is not here, otherwise he would be happy to compete with you.”
“Oh, that’s not right. Ma Xiaotao seems to be able to take action. And Chen Zifeng, that guy has mechanically ascended. He has become purely mechanized, but his strength has increased a lot. They are all strong opponents for you.”
“The Holy Spirit Church will also get involved?” Nana asked in surprise.
“Well, as Master Jing said, the Holy Spirit Church also has plans. After all, the All-Continental College Competition in four years will also include the Holy Spirit Church, so they might as well give us a preview in advance.” Xu Cheng nodded.
“But those guys from the Holy Spirit Church don’t know how to control their severity when they attack.” Nana hesitated.
“Haha, if they dare to use too much force, I will let them meet in the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. Now is a critical period. The purpose of this college competition is to show the strength of the Royal Academy of the Sun and Moon Empire and win over the hidden families, not to make enemies. If they dare to mess up my good things, I will kill them together with the team leaders.” Xu Cheng smiled, but the coldness in his eyes made the temperature in the room cooler.
Heavy-handed? Careless?
He made these “desperadoes” have clearer eyes.
“Also, our people should also show up at this event.” Xu Cheng murmured.
Ever since he became the Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Church, he has been developing his own power internally, while recruiting some young people from outside to expand his influence.
And these outsiders came from the Mingyu Sect.
He does not appear many times in the original novel, only showing up in the Second Continental Soul Master Competition. He becomes a stepping stone for the Tang Sect and actually has considerable potential.
Several people who showed their talents in the competition were on par with the protagonists, which shows their talent. One of them, a vampire bat named Ade, attracted Zhongli Wu’s attention as soon as he appeared, and threatened to take back the Holy Spirit Church. Ade’s sister Cain is the owner of a dark gold three-headed bat king martial spirit. Now her talent has reached the peak of Soul King, and she is not far from breaking through to Soul Emperor.
Mingyu Sect is a native sect in Mingdu, which is combined with soul guides, close combat + soul guides, and is the same type as Nana.
The girl named Cain joined the Holy Spirit Church at the very beginning and has always been one of Xu Cheng’s loyal supporters.
Now that the situation has been decided, there is no need to hide it, for fear that Zhongli Wu will take it away…
“…Yes!” A hint of joy flashed in Nana’s eyes.
She has a good relationship with Cain, after all, they both belong to Xu Cheng’s faction.
In the past, Xu Cheng only asked them to practice hard, and now is the time for them to show their talents. They are all young people with strong talents for cultivation, but they can only practice hard, which is like walking in the night in gorgeous clothes.
“Qiu’er, I wonder what you in the Xingdou Great Forest think of Shrek Academy?”
When he was free, Xu Cheng suddenly remembered something and asked curiously.
“Why do you suddenly ask this?” Wang Qiuer frowned. “In our eyes, Shrek Academy is just a group of robbers and bandits. Since its establishment ten thousand years ago, it has killed at least a hundred hundred thousand year old spirit beasts from the Star Dou Great Forest. We can’t have a good impression of them, we can only feel angry.”
“Wow, a hundred of them?” Xu Cheng’s mouth twitched, but when he thought about it carefully, it was true. Every leader of the Poseidon Pavilion must have at least one hundred thousand year soul ring, and there must be at least three or four of them in the Poseidon Pavilion. The ninth soul ring should be red, right?
So…
“Then what the Body Sect did is just a drop in the bucket, isn’t it?”
“The Body Sect? I don’t have much impression of them. Although they are also quite hateful, they are nowhere near as bad as Shrek Academy.” Wang Qiuer snorted.
Obviously, he has a lot of opinions about Shrek Academy.
“I remember that many years ago, the Body Sect rushed into the Star Dou Great Forest and hunted down seven hundred thousand year soul beasts in succession, even triggering a beast tide…” Nana also asked curiously.
“What? It’s because Shrek Academy hunted too many animals before, and Di Tian was furious. The Body Sect was also tactless, so they came here to cause trouble…” Wang Qiuer snorted coldly.
“Emperor Tiancai was completely furious and wanted to trigger a beast tide and go to war with humans. However, he seemed to have some reservations at the time, or there was something inside Shrek that forced him to withdraw.”
“So that’s how it is.” Xu Cheng suddenly realized.
This Shrek still claims to be righteous and puts the blame on the Body Sect.
They killed seven people, but your Shrek Academy is adjacent to them, and the number of people killed over the past ten thousand years must have been hundreds. Who is the real culprit who caused the riot…
“Unfortunately, I’m quite interested in Shrek’s collection of books. Now that you mention it, I don’t dare to go.” Xu Cheng shook his head slightly.
Of course, what he wanted to see was not Shrek’s collection of books, but the collection of books in the “Spirit Hall”. The Spirit Hall was destroyed ten thousand years ago, so where would those precious books have gone?
He was quite curious about the history of ten thousand years ago, but unfortunately it was only briefly mentioned in the original book.
“Then Ah Cheng, I heard from Elder Cheng that there is another soul method that seems to be able to extend the life of soul beasts. Is it true?”
Wang Qiuer was in a low mood, but suddenly remembered something, and her big light blue eyes stared at Xu Cheng eagerly.
